Says the Richmond Wing: "Ycster-
day morning, early, as Mr.. Page, city
gas inspector, was going into his office
at the City Hall, he wa surprised to see
what looked at first ike a red bird.
Upon catching it the creature gave him a
severe bite upon the hand, which caused
him to drop it with a feeling akin to
disgust. 1t proved to be a c~rimson-col-
Ored bat, something which no man in
this part of the world ever saw before.
The color of The bat excited surprise, but
upon closer examination Mr.. Page was
astOnishcd TO discover that it had but
n eye, and that in the center of the
forehead. He placed it in a box, and,
strange to say, it does not appear to be
frightened in its new home. Many per
sons called to see it yesterday, among
them several gentlemen well versed in
ornitholOgy, and all averred that they
had never seen or heard of anything like
this bat. 1t is the intention of Mr.. Page
to send it TO the Smithsonian Institution
at Washington"

Thirty-frSt Euy.-The first cross-cxamina-
ton of Tilton was closed without anything new
or sensational being brought out. The letter
Of resignation which Eeecler wrote. but did not
publish, was read. Tlton's testimony in his re-
direct examination was an cndeavor to reconcile
the fact Of his wife's fail with his theory Of her
purity. She would have obeyed Beecller if he
babe her throw herself under his chariot
wheels. TiltOn stated that Beecher's lack of
courage made him unwittingiy the author of
his own exposure.

Tine Cary, formerly q house-servant of tie I'll
tons, was put on the stand. She testified that
she had seen Mrs. Tilton sitting on Mr.. Beech
er'e knee and that the attentions of Mr.. Beech
er to Mrs. Tilton were so marked az to be a
common topic of conversation among the sery-
ants.
Thirty-hird Uoy.-The session was mainly
occupied in legal diminishing. Under the re-
direct questioning of Fullerton. Tilton made
clear some of the cloudy features of his cross
examination, as also the real character Of the
Frehch Commune procession in New York. 4
row Of ladies from the country occupied seats
behind Mrs. Triton, their heads perpetuallv
turning from side to side. and their eyes rest
lessly wandering from witness to counsel and
from counsel to audience. The number of
ladies who accompany Mrs. Tilton TO the
Beecher trial has diminished from four to two
namely, Mrs. Field and Mrs. Tubs.

testimony elected was that given by Joseph H..

cow COW more wonderful III some OF
her qualities than the one that jumped

truthful and reliable farmer, tells about
the COW himself to the editor of the
local newspaper, and he says that she is
ten years old, and that she has never
seen Il rail off the fence, or a gap down
that she did not put it up with her
horns. And if she sees a gate standing
open she Will close and fasten it. If
she sees other stock on the place
break into another Enclosure she will
drive it out and put up the fence. Here
is a quadruped as is Il quadruped, my

held second only to the mother of his

PRODFGFpES METTIE re

Mr.. Rosonthal. the celebrated French
chess player, recently performed another
Of those surprising mental feats for
which he is So famous. He played at
the PaIa;s RovaI ~twenty-sevcn games Of
chess at once with that number Of the
best French and foreign chess PLAYERS.
1t was stipulated that Mr.. Rosenthal
should have only one minute for each
move, passing along the twentv-seven
tables in order. OF course each of his
antagonists had time to study the game
while Mr.. Rosenthal WIS busy at the
other twenty-six tables. 1t is quite un-
necessary to point out the mental strain
OF keeping thus III mind SO large Il num-
Der OF games at once, during the time
they lasted. which was from 9 o'clock at
night until , O'Clock i'll the morning.
The result WAS marvellous. Mr.. ROsen-
thai won twcnty-three games, three were
drawn, ana he lost only one, which was
gained by 4 Hungarian player named
R&kowski, who thus achieved a victory
OF which he may well be proud.
