LION ROASTED


Mrs Colonel Somerset. in an account
Of Der adventures in Caffaria, relates the
following iucideut;--
A few minutes yet Of intense suspense,
and then the silence was broken by
terrific roar, exactly in the direction they
had expected; this was answered by
stiu more terrible growl opposite, aud
following the direction indicated by one
Of the Cafir's spears, Helen saw through
a thin part Of hedge. an immense lion,
actually within few yards. The fire

his eyes in the unusual light, and lashing
his tail preparatory to a spring. Helen's
facinated gaze was still upon him, when

/ quivering IN his neck. With roar like
thunder he crouched, and concentrating
! his whole force, sprang over the hedge,
/ right into the middle OF the ERE, scatter

I as he came down in his bound halt-a-doz-
en- spears were plunged into his sidc.-
InGuriated by pnia and fright, the lion
Sounded on, then, reused to madness

about to be enacted, n new and irrisista-
BILE enemy had attacked him. The fire,
having caught his dry shaggy name, was
rapidly encircling him in a glowing flame.

the jungle, leaving q trail Of fire and

TANNING THE sHREW.

Once on a time there was a King, and
he had daughter who was such scold'
and whose tongue went so fast there was
no stopping a. Sc be gave out that the
man who could stop he- tongue, should
have the Princess to wife and half his
kingdom into the bargain. Now, three
brothers. who heard this made up their
minds to go and try their luck and frsi
Of all the two elder went for they thought
they were the cleverest but they couldn't

osier band laying on the road, and he
picked il up. When he had gone a lit

plate, and he picked that up too. A lit
tie further on he found dead magpie,
and little further on still a crooked rams

fellow to The horn; aod al lasi just as he
was crossing the fields by the Kings pail

he found a wornout sboe-sole. All the

Good day. said he.

Princess.

lad and showed her the broken piec,

OrES SEA.-Ata meeting Of the Ge-
ographical Society, DR.. Hays, in his lee
ture, said, from data in their possession,
it was well settled that an open sea, far
north, always existed.
lie mentioned as one evidence, that the
observations Of different expeditions re-
ported ocean currents from the north as
being warm. Some of the expeditions
mentioned, had brought from far north,
bear-skins; and it Is well known that
bears kept near the open sea.
Also, the testimony Of Tie reliable Es-
quimaux, Hans, went 10 confirm the fact
he spoke Of there being abundance of
water and birds farnorth. The sea gull
and other zea birds were seen yearly mi
grating noihward in myriads.
The i-othermal lines, also. ovinced a
milder climate far north. Besides, the
Esquimau1 all point to tLe extreme north
as the home Of ihcir race. This is prob
able, as the race dstcriorates in the de-
gree 20 which e Is located southward.

gold dust, which he said had been stolen,
for half its value. The broker seized the
opportunity, weighed the dust, found it
all right and paid over the money. Al
most Immediately a professed policeman
came in, said he had aseertained that he
was in possession Of a certain parcel OF
gold dust, and must arrest him and seize
the dust. The broker was much alarm
ed, and finally offered the officer $500 in
bills to release him and keep mum. The
offer was accepted and money paid. The
broker then concluded it was best to get
rid Of the gold as soon as possible. but on
attempting to sell It, found it was only
copper filings. The policeman was also
bogus, and the broker finds himself minus
IS, 300, which should be a caution to him
not to deal hereafter with stolen goods.
