rainy days in the course Of year but the Pasha
planted millions of trees, aud the annual AVetage
rs now iorty-six days OF rain, BY which The coeh-
try has been intellectually benefited. The coun-
try about Trieste has been made pretty thorough
test. too. Once 1t was fertile. but ihs forests
were swept away and barIenneSs soon followed.
Since then however, millions of olive trees have
been planted aud carefully reared, and now pro-
ductiVeness has returned.

The Price Of Tigers.

1t may interest persons who think Of
buying tigers to learn that couple were
sold in Alabama few days ago by cir
Gus company for six thousand dollars
we have never shopped much for tigers
ourselves, but this seems to us to be
cheap. The fairest way to estimate such
value is to reflect what you yourself
would be willing to supply the article
for. Now there may be difference OF
opinion among our readers upon the
subject; but we hardly think we should
be willing to go out to India, to tramp
around in the jungles, seize the first two
tigers that passed, and to lead them
home here with string, for any
such sum as six thousand dollars |
Not that we mind the trouble of going to
India, or the expense of string; but we
object to that excessive and demonstra-
tive sociahility which makes some tigers
so dsagreeable. With stuffed tiger it
is different, of course, for then there is
usually more docility and less enthusi-
asm. We can stand for hours by the
side of stuffed tiger without the quiver
Of muscle or feeling Of homesiek-
ness. Persons who want tiger Or two
around the house to amuse the children,
will find this kind not only tanner but
less expensive, They do not eat so
much, for one thing, and are not so apt
to thin out the family and to lunch on
the hired girl. To us, however, this lat
ter qualification would not be an induce
ment. Show MS tiger that has con-
tracted q habit Of assimilating hired
girls and we will have him at any price
that can be borrowed of our friends.

who Has Lost n Roy?

There is boy in Austin, Texas, who
is desirous of knowing who he is. He
does not even know his name, and yet
wishes some family to claim him Two
boys, white captives, were taken from
the Indians by General Mckenzie at his
recent victory. One of the boys has
been recognized as Temple Friend, the
son Of John Friend, now of Eldorado,
Kansas. he was taken at massacre
four or FIVE years ago, in which several
women were killed, and the mother of
the boy was scalped, but recovered. The
grandfather of the boy spent about five
thousand dollars to effect his rescue, and
had given up all hopes of ever seeing
him again. The other boy has not been
claimed. The announcement is made
in the Austin Journal that anyone who
has lost boy within four or five years
may procure a photograph of this one
free of charge, by communicating with
Mr.. W. NJ Gilleland of Austin, Texas.

A Mystery solved.

At the town of Brattleboro, Vermont,
about sixty years ago, considerable ex.
element was caused by meteor, which,
after lowering in the sky few minutes,
vanished with loud explosion. 1t was
seen nowhere else, and the strange phe-
nomena, though eagerly discussed, could
never be accounted for. But at last there
Is solution Of the mystery AN old
gentleman recently died there, and on
his death.bed he confessed that when a
boy, in 1911, he made kite, attaching
to it q lantern containing a candle, SO
arranged that when the candle burned
down it would explode some gunpowder.
One dark night he managed to get the
contriyance into the air and successfully
explode it. He could not die comforta-
bly, until he made the confession; but
how great must have been the mental
sui'erings Of the old gentleman, who for
more than sixty years had been the sole
repository Of so weighty secretl

MARY difficulty that his funeral expenses
had 20 be betrayed at the cost Of the
parish in which he lived.
The saddest case Of all, however was
that Of Beethoven. Although his father
seems TO have been a very morose. hard
hearted man, yet, being musician, he
soon diseerned the dawning genius OF
his son, and gave him every facility for
learning the 6rst principles OF his art.
At an early age he went TO Vienna,
studied under Albrechtsberger and
Haydn, and Il was pronounced by Mo-
zart, on hearing him extemporize:
The wOrld will hear Of that young
man." Each succeeding year proved
the truth Of this prophecy; but toward
the beginning Of 1900 the dreadful mall
ady Of deafness commenced, and in
creased daily, and for the last twenty
years Of his life, till 1887, when he died,
Beethoven never heard a note Of his
music, and excepting by the means Of
sight, was quite unable to conceive the
effect his sublime inspirations had on
his hearers.

A new President of the Swiss Confed.
Grafton has been inaugurated. This
officer is chosen by the Federal Assem-
bly,, elected directly by the people. II
is composed Of the National Council
and Of the State Council, substantially
corresponding TO the United States
Senate and House of Representatives.
The new President is Paul j. Ceresole,
who was born November 7th, 1882, at
Friedrichsdorf, near Frankfort, where
his father was pastor OF the Reformed
Church. He studied law at Lausanne,
received licentiate's diploma in 1856,
was admitted to the bar in 1858, and
since that date has been engaged in the
practice of law at Vevay. He was Vice
President of Switzerland during 1872.
M. Theirs, in his Consulat ct Empire,
tells an interesting anecdote concerning
the family of M. Paul Ceresole, just
elected President of the Swiss Coniede-
ration. After Jena when Napoleon was
riding through forest on his way to
Potsdam, he was overtakcn by storm
and sought shelter in a shooting-box,
where he found several ladies'. He was
much annoyed at being recognized by
one of them, and asked abruptly, How
do you know me2" Sire" was the
reply, IL was with your Majesty in
Egypt, and my husband was killed in
your service" The lady then explained
that having been unable to procure a
pension she had been under the necessity
of accepting the situation as governess.
The Emperor promised to have her pro-
vided for, and see to the education of
her son, who was, of course, sent to a
military college. Napoleon signed the
requisite papers the same evening, and
said, laughing, that this was the first
adventure that had ever happened to him
in forest after tempest" Young
Ceresole, not liking the profession OF
arms, soon left La Feche and went to
Switzerland, where he became pastor,
married, and had seven children, of
whom the President of the Confederation
is one

very few Of our readers who are not per-
feotly familiar with the romantic story
of William Tell the Swiss patriot, and
now, forsoeth, some busybody has been
prying around, or rather Investigating
the matter, and the result is, that be
literally squelched William, for he
proves by incontrovertible evidence, that
Notwithstanding the cross bow with
which his wonderful feats Of archery
we're performed, is still on exhibition at
Zurich, Tell never fred at an apple
placed on his sons head, never refused
to bow to Gesler's cap. never crossed the
Lake Of Lucerne in a tempest Of wind
and rain, never boldly jumped upon the
Tell platte, never spoke his celebrated
speech in the defile of Kusnach, never
shot the Landvogt-that there never
even existed any Landvogi Gesler. that
William Tell never had any son, in fact
that there Rerer tired any William Tell.
