AT the geological garden of Dresden,
in Saxony. a female tiger gave birth to
three strong young ores. On former
occasion the mother had proved
absolutely unfit to nurse her young.
The director, in order to preserve the
young tigers this time, and if possible
bring them up, procured large dog
possessing the requisite qualifications
and gave her in lieu Of her own progeny
the three little tigers. The dog accept
ed them without the least reluctance,
although they belong to an entire differ
ent family Of animals, and even now
at the end of six weeks-when their
cat nature has become well developed
and the black stripes on their yellow
skin fully visible, the dog treats her
adopted children precisely as if they
were her own.

The Actual Cost Of a Narrow-Gauge
Experiment I'm Missouri.

In our last weeks issue, we gave
brief outline Of 80 mile narrow-gauge
railroad, starting at this city, running
through Jackson, Millersville, and up
the Whitewater valley, to the iron
banks, in Bollinger county.
Numerous inquiries being made 10y
leading men, regarding the details, we
herewith give few figures, that ex-
plains themselves: ~
The right of way will be thirty feet
wide, instead Of one hundred, and cut
out twelve feet wide where it runs
through forests. The road bed will be
six feet wide on top, following the rise
and fall OF the ground where it does not
exceed seventy feet to the mile. Follow
ing the valleys, and winding around
hig Oh hills and steep grades, in curves Of
two hundred feet radius, less than one
third that required for the ordinary
gauge. We give below the cost of one
mile finished

This gives us two trans, each fifteen
open, five box, and two passenger cars.
One train would made the round trip in
five hours, giving two such trips each
day, while the other train would be dis
tributed along the line, loading, &c,
and one locomotive in reserve, to move
as occasion would require.
Now add to the two sums total 1923,
l25. 60-leaving a balance of the $24O,
900, amounting to Sl6,S75, for bridges,
culverts, &c.
Thus, in brief, is the railroad we pro,
pose to build. How much would the
people be willing to pay, yearly, for
such a road, running through the center
Of the county? Eight per cent. on the
capital stock amounts to $l9, 200. That
amount, raised by taxation for three
years, would enable the road to pay the
interest, and establish a sinking fund to
liquidate the principal.
