DREADFUL ACCIDENT TO A LIoN.-The Cleve-
land Pdmdealer tells of fearful accident in Van
Amburgh's menagerie. Some of the new keep
ers commenced to torment the lion. Wishing to
hear him roar, the brutes spat tobacco juice in
his eyes. This thoroughly maddened him, and
his frenzy was terrific. The lion made tre-
mendous dash at the cage bars-they gave way
he cleared the cage with bound, and sprang
for the affrighted wretch the pole. In the
blindness of his rage, the lion missed the man,
striking his head against the pole and splitting
himself from head to fail 1t was done rs evenly
as though he had been sawed through by an ex-
perienced mechanic The uproar brought Mr.
Van Amburgh to the spot. The emergency re-
quired promptness. SThis was no time for re-
Election or argument Selling the ceaved parts
of the lion, the great tanner clapped them in
stantly together. They stuck, and the lion was
soon restored to consciousness. But imagine
Vans agony when he saw that he had put the
lion together the wrong way that two of the
animals legs were up, and the other two down
But the lion got well and seems to enjoy himself
better than ever. When he gets tired of walk
ing on two legs he hops over on the other two.
He is said to be curious looking lion

Six HUNDRED AUSTRIAN PRISONERS IN PARIS
column OF six hundred Austrian prisoners
says the correspondent of the London Star
writing July llth, passed through Paris a day
or two ago. The band was composed of speci-
mems OF almost every nationality which Austria
governs with her long arm and iron hand. Some
OF the costumes were most picturesque, and call
ed to mind the old legends of the Danube which
sometimes reach the west of Europe through the
medium of translation. The fiat round cap OF
the Croat, the high conical hat of the Tyrolese
all adorned with floating ribbons. and some OF
them still decorated with the same bunch OF
flowers which some loving hand had placed
there on departure from home-fowers dried and
faded long since, but still relgiously preserved
gathered on the mountain top, and destined to
rot or perish in the close workroom or back
shop; or worse, perhaps, to be replaced ere long
by others gathered on the green plains or in the
forest glades of Campiegne. This detachment
OF prisoners were being transferred thither-
Ihey ala not seem either downcast or abashed
10 some OF the railway official who skoke Ger
man they answered cheerfuly, and full of hone
OF speedy return to their homes When aues-
toned concerning the Austrian army. the reply
excited no small surprise in the minds of the
questiouers, for it appeared that the greatest
humiliation was experienced by the calumnies
which had evidently been spread against theiI
young Emperor-calumnies which they one and
all repudiated with the greatest indignation.
The monstrous assertion of the fight of Francis
Joseph to Vienna, seemed most of all to fill then
with fury. 1t seems certain that his Maiest,
never left his headquarters for an instant anc
never thought of deserting his army, as the nos.
tive assertion was made in the French renort:
of the battle.

A FRESH WATER SAILoR.-You may not know
it, but it is fact that political influence very
often gets officers in our revenue navy who nev-
er scarcely had glimpse of salt water before
they shipped with lieutenant's epaulette.
One of these cases." the son of well-to-do
planter in the interior of Georgia, went down to
the cutter at Savannah, went to sea in her on a
three or four days cruise, and then, on her re-
turn to port. got leave to go home for couple
of weeks after more "rocks," or something of
the kind
When he got there he was the biggest frog in
the pond by odds. The Z" tales of the sea, and
the dangers of those "who go down in great
ships" which he told, were Munchausenish to an
intensity.
About midnight after all had retired to rest,
his father and his family were aroused from
their slumbers by hearing buckets of water
dashed against the side of the house in the part
where the young lieutenants apartment was
situated, and every now and then they would
hear him roar out to negro servant:
g. More tempestuous, Pompey More tempes-
tuous, you black impl'
They thought him insane, and hurried to ask
him what was the matter.
I'm so accustomed to the delightful dash of
the waves against the sides of the vessel" said
he, t. that find it impossible to sleep without
something as near like it as | can get in this
benighted region.
There was probably some snickering" about

r. GERMAN CoURTING IN ENGLIsH-A story is
told of German who attempted to court in
English, with the aid of dictionary Having
obtained an interview with an English lady,
who, having recently lost her husband, must be
open to new offers, he opened the business
thus
.High-born madame, since your husband
have kicked de bucket"
"Sirr' interrupted the lady, astonished and
displeased.
''Oh, pardon-nine ten thousand pardon i
Now make new beginning-quite order begin
ming. Madame since your husband have cut
his stick
1t may be supposed that this did not mend
matters and reading as much in the ladys
eountenance. the German drew out an octave
dictionary, and said, perspiring with shame at
having a second time missed FIRE:
Madame, since your husband has gone to
kingdom come
This he said beseechingly, but the lady was
past propitiation by this time, and rapidly moved
toward the door Things had now reached a
crisis, and il something were not done quickly,
The game was up. Now, therefore, taking a last
hurried look at his dictionary, the German flew
after the lady, crying out in voice of despair:
Madame, since your husband, your most re-
spected husband, have hopped de twig-"
This his sheet anchor, and as this also
:. o'sme home, of course the poor man was to-
allly wrecked.
It turned ont that the dictionary he had used

/. To kick the bucket. 2. To cut ones stick
3. To go to kingdom come. 4. To hop the twig;
TO hop off the perch into Davy's locker.

The Irish Petatos

How sweet to the taste is the Irish potato
As memory awakens thought OF the plant,

The thin-skinned potato that grew on the

The best favored edible that nature could
yield.
With what eager appetite. sharpened by labor,

ORIGIN OF HAIL, CoLuaBIA-In the year 1898,
when patriotic feeling pervaded the country. and
when there were several parties in the field, Mr..
Fox. young player, who was more admired for
his local than histrionc powers, called one NOR
ming on his friend Mr.. Hopkinson, and after
stating that the following evening had been ap-
pointed for his benefit, and expressing great fear
for the result, as not single box had been ta-
ken, begged his friend to do something in his
behalf.
Ii" said Fox, you will write me some pat
rotlc verses to the tune OF the Presidents March,
feel sure of full house. Several of the people
about the theatre have attempted it. but they
have come to the conclusion that it cannot be
done; yet think you may succeed Mr.. Hop
kinson retired to his study, and in short time
wrote the first verse and chorus, which were
submitted to Mrs. Hopkinson, who sang them to
piano accompaniment, and proved the measure
and music 10 be compatible and in keeping In
this way the second and other verses were writ
ten, and when Fox returned in the evening" he
received with delight the song as it now stands.
The following morning small handblls ard pla-
cards announced that Mr.. Fox would sing a new
patriotic song, &c.
The theatre was crowded the song was sung
and received with rapture; it was repeated
eight times, and again encored; and when sung
the ninth time, the whole audience stood up and
Joined in the chorus. Night after night, Hail,
Columbia, cheered the visitors of the theatre,
and in very few days it was the universal song
of the boys in the streets, from one end of the
city to the other. Nor the author Of ibis
national song-a song which met the approba-
tion of both parties-forgotten. The street in
which he resided was on one occasion crowded,
and Hail, Columbia, broke on the stiffness OF
