French' were mk strong errouglr to
tight tlieir way 'through rtie lines of
their opponents.) who outnumbered
them twenty to one; while, as the latter
had no cannon, the Frenclrmen oiiild
hold 4lteir position with confidence.
There were kft on the space ly'mg
1ctween the oprniWing forees a dozen or
o guns, which the beleagured forct
Jrad not ttrcn able to take with them
into the fort. An attempt was made
by the' beseigers 'to remove these guns
by means of a long rope worked by a
capstan, placed in a dioue a short dis
tannce away. and. though the?r first
endeavor resulted failure, fhe French
realized that the tJtimate eaiure of the.
ordnance wonld I s eriouly jeopardize
the chances of tire fart holding out.
The nccesity of spiking the guns was
-apparent, btit a sortie in the race of the
overwhelming TnuskeWy fire of the in

GREECE'S RAILROADS.

T." . .e aA Lat to Be Connected
iin ine European jSystem. -
The Greek government has just sign
ed a convention for rhe construction
ot a rawroad from the FSfaeus 5 to De
mirly. near the Turkish frontier. The
road is to be completed in four years
and the ; section irom the Piraeus to
Livadia is to be in operation in, two
years. The Itne will run (through At
tica and Thessaly. It is (not yet ex
actly known at what points the Otto
man line will reach the oundary and
so the route of the bont extension of
tie Greek line from Dcmirly to ; the
frontier is to bo settled lacr. 1 .
When thisrailroad is completed he
lines of Greece wilt for the first time be
placed in connection- wkhi those of the
rest of Europe. It will the. be Dou
ble to travel all the way) by rail from
Athens to -Paris. A concession i' to
build the line was srranted in 1880. hut
tlic government declared lit forfeited in
itJ4- because tlw compnr had not
carried out its agreements. It. is said
that under tht present auspices there
will be no interruption of jthe enterprise
and tba the capital of Greece is cer
tain soon to be brought into cjoscr re

GLUTTONOUS ANIMALS.
Most people, if askedi what animal
eats the most, would probably say the
lion or tiger. This is quite a mistake.
Thirty-to forty pounds oil flesh will sat
isfy a lion, which, as an average speci
men weighs over 450 pounds, is by no
means extravagant. A bear has much
more capacity than a Jion. and can
make away .witTi a small! pig at a meal,
say a Jvund rod weight of imea't. Wolves
are among the hungriest of the 1 larger
carnivora. A wolf will! starve lor a
fortnight and then eat a Third ot his
own weight at a single fmeal. : !
COUNTRY.BRED SALESWOMAN

A New York expert says that a coun
try girl is better thanj her city bred
sister as a saleswoman! He , cives as
his reasons for this that the country jjirl
is not so -likely to have her head full of
social amusements; that she is, as a
rule, more attentive toi her bunsiness.
and diat she studies tine wants of ha
customers more than the city maiden.

THE BICYCLE ORDINANCE.
Scieral amendments to the existing
Wcycle ordinance arc being considered
by: Salem's city council. The amend
ments will be reported for final con
sideration at the next meeting" of the
council. It is probable wheelmen will
be ruled off a namber of wa?ks to which
they now liave access and some business
men arejenown to favor the ruling of
wheelmen off all walks during the
summer months, probably from 'May
1st or June 1st until October 1st. A
State street business man yesterday
said that while the council was amend
ing bicycle ordinance he hoped to see
it so mrnlified that conditions might be
equalized so fliat the ordinance would
not operate unfairly towards any sec
tion of the city. While htf favored ex
cluding cyclists froni the sidewalks al
together, durhrfe the summer months,
be said he woold not insist on uch a
general ordinance, but he thought the
ordinance should operate alike on all
of fhe principal streets leading to Com
ifjerctal strte-. For instance, at the
present time, wheelmen are barred
from south side of State -street r arc
denied access to State street over
Church and High streets, a circumstance
tl)at; the business man in question argued
was an injustice to the business men
located on "State street. The members
of : the ordinance committee having
charge of the : proposed amendments,
are Councilmen Ri'ggs and Allen, both
of : whom are wlictlmen. Councilman
Gesner, chairman of the committee, is
