INDIAN AMUsEMENTs.
Rhinoceros and Elephant Fights.

kh1noceros and Elephant Fights.
Writing of the Prince of Wales re-
ception at Bareds, the correspondent
Of the London Daily Telegraph says:
Theichief feasure of the entertainment
prepared at this return call was an
elephant fight, for which sort of exhi-
bltion the Court Of Baroda has always
been famous. Native Indian Princes
have indeed remarkable passion for
such displayes. but Khundsrao and
his successor, the late Guicswar, were
particularly devoted to the dubious
amusement Of watching the contests
Of animals, SO that at B ,roda there has
always been kept up a large supply Of
elephants, rhinscercses,2 buffaloes, IT,
gers, rams and camels trained to fight
for the pleasure Of the Court. Com

excited into ferocity, are bad enough.

THIS standard article is com.
pounded with the greatest care.
Its effects are as wonderful and
as satisfactory as ever.
1t restores gray or faded hair to
its youthful color.
1t removes all eruptions, itching
and dandrlE. 1t gives the head a
cooling, soothing sensation of great
comfort, and the scalp by its use
becomes white and clean.
Byits tonic properties it restores
the capillary glands to their normal
vigor, preventing badness, and
making the hair grow thick and
strong.
AS a dressing, nothing has been
found so ctIectual or desirable.

Last evening, while Harper, the
clown of Barnum's circus, was
passing upBroadway,a little child
slipped from a three-story window
and came headlong toward the
pavement. Harper at the instant
and, as it would seem, providen-
tally caught sight of the child as
it left the window above, and,
with alacritp Oft cat, placed him
self in position to break its fall.
When it came down to him he
caught ii with a firm grasp, and
not only broke its fall, but held it
from going to the pavement. The
act was bold and dangerous, but
successful. The athlete suffered
some little injury, but not enough
to speak Of in connection with SO
extraordinary q feat.--Dai Sar-
