Not So Pleasant.

In the summer of 1916 three men liv-
ing about three miles above Niagara
falls saw q bear swimming in the river.
Thinking he would be a capital prize
they started for him in q large, substan-
tial log canoe or "dugout." When they
overlook him he seemed quite obliged
for their attention, and quietly putting
his paws on the side of the canoe, drew
himself into it, Notwithstanding that
they vehemently belabored him with
their paddles. As he came in on one
side two of the men went into the water
on the other side. The third, who may
be called Fisher, could not swim, and
naturally enough felt somewhat embar-
rassed. Much to his relief the ANNA.
deliberately sat down in the bow of the
canoe facing him. As the noise of the
rapids and roar of the falls reminded
him that they were ominously near,
Fisher resolved to take advantage Of the
truce and pull vigorously for the shore.
But when he begun to paddle the bear
begun to growl his objections, enforcing
them at the same time with IN ominous
grin. Fisher desisted for q while, but
feeling their constant and insidious ap.
proach to the rapids, he tried again to
use his paddle. Bruin then raised his
note of disapprobation an octave higher,
and made a motion as if he intended to
get down and "go for" him. The men
who swum ashore soon. however, re-
appeared, in another canoe, with a
loaded nusket, shot the bear, and ended
Fishers terrible suspense. Bruin
weighed over three hundred pounds

Playing with the Feelings.

The London Globe says : AS O train
was passing through the open country
neal Kellswater some of the passengers
saw a man running across a field by the
side of the line. Presently he halted,
presented his piece and fred, when down
fell another man standing at a few yards
distance. No sooner was this poor
creature prone on the ground than the
miscreant with the gun proceeded to
belabor his victim over the head and
shoulders with its stock, by way, it was
supposed, of finishing his murderous
work. The passengers in the train were,
of course, greatly panied at being com
PEELED to witness such q cold blooded as
sassination without the possibility of in
reference. AS o on as they reached
the next station a body of them rushed
to the telegraph wires, and in e few min
utes the police authorities were set on
the track of the supposed murderer.
Great was the alarm throughout the en-
tire district, and especially at Belfast,
owing to the fatal occurrence having
happened on the eve of the momentous
twelfth of July. For all that people
could tell, the tragedy might prove the
beginning of wholesale slaughter. The
police, therefore, lost not a moment in
setting inquiry on foot, and q whole
regiment of inspectors and sub-inspec-
tors hurried to Kellswater, intent Oh APP
pretending the supposed murderer.
All in vain this c~ommendable display of
energy. He never would be apprchend-
ed in this world for one very good
reason. The whole affair was a hoax
from beginning tt end, the assassin and
bis victim being leagued together to
fr;ghten the public. Are there any

A Mexican Rider.

A young Mexican horsebreaker named
Leon, who had been in England about a
month, undertook to ride II hundred
miles in five consecutive hours at the
Alexandra park, and succeeded in &C.
complishing the feat in three minutes
and seven seconds less than the stipu-
lated time. The conditions were that
he should ride the race on the tenhorses
which he bud brought over from Mexico
with him, and Which were not many
months since wild on the Mexican prai-
ries. Some Of them, however, were not
yet sufficiently dcciie for him to trust
to them, and he was consequently COM
PEELED 10 use onlyseven horses, and as one
of these fell lame before he accomplish
ed half the distance, the number was
then reduced to six. Leon elected to
ride on the gravel trotting track of the
park instead of OF the grass of the r"cn-
course, and ns the latter was very hard
l!u 10 doubt exercised a wise discretion.
Ho is g well built man, rather under
the average height, and Weighs some
thing under ten and one-half stone.

The Yacht Race,

The ocean yacht race for the Bennett
Challenge cup was begun on Thursday
and terminated Friday morning be-
tween twelve and one o'clock, tho Idler
being the winner, the Wanderer second
and the Tidal Wave third. It was in
many respects one of the prettiest races
ever witnessed, and worthy of the best
days of yachting. There were five fine
schsoners entered-the Idler, Wander
or, Tidal Wave, America and the Coun-
tess of Dufferin, the first four well
known for their former achievements,
the fifth a vessel from which greatthings
were expected. The Idler, Wanderer
and Tidal Wave maintained their good
reputation, as would the America but
for q misfortune; but the Countess OF
Dufferin, it must be said, disappointed
everybody who saw her from the begin
ming of the regatta until she droppedfar
astern on Friday night on her homeward
bound passage. The did not sail well
either on a wind or going free, and GER
tainly did not manifest any of those
points of which she must be possessed
to compete successfully with the Made
leine in the approaching struggle for
the Queens cup. Still a great deal Of
allowance may be made for hir having
lust come off the screw dock the mor
ing of the race and her additional bal
last having been put on board a few
hours before she started. And it may
be further claimed thatthis was only her
trial Trip, and that her gear was not in
apple pie order which would secure its
working to the best advantage. All this
admitted, the plain facts remain thatthe
America would have beaten her several
hours had noU accident prevented her,
and the Tidal Wave did beat her easily,
Notwithstanding that the latter never
used all even of her working canvas, and
was obliged to scud under bare poles for
three hours on Friday night, owing to
stress of weather.

BROOKLYN, N. Y, August

DHOOALfNi ~. l., august 10.
Gentlemen-It is with feelings Of gratitude
that I 7 place before you Q simple statement OF
INV sutferings and cure from the use of tn"
Peruvian Syrup. I am forty years Of age, and
nv occupation is that OF a map engrsver.
About fifteen years ago I was attacked with
what I suppose was q disease Of the spine. ]
could not walk erect, owing to a great weak.
ness which I experienced ut the small Of my
back. My digestion became impaired, and by
degrees my whole system became dersnged.
I suffered in this way for seven years, and
theu placed myself in the hands OF eminen,
physicians. They treated me with mercury
and many other strong remedies, but I grew
worse instead Of better.
In tue spring Of 1857, there appeared upon
my back and side two large abscesses, and al
this time I was also suffering from q very bal
fistula my whole system became utterly pros
trsted, when I WAS advised to try the Peruvian
Syrup. I commenced using it, and at ono
experienced great relief. I have taken three
bottles Of it, and every trace Of my former
complaints have left me. My system has re.
gained it's strength, my appetite has returned,
and I feel myself completely renewed in age
and vigor. In word, my health is now perfect
and I can truly say that I was never able to d.
more work, and with greater ease to myself,
than at this time.
y Yours respectfully, JAMES P. Cox.

The Stage.

Fanny Kemble, in her old age, writes
thus of the profession in which she CD
tanned fame: "Acting is 4 business
which is incessent excitement and facti-
tious emotion, unworthy of a man; q
business which is public exhibition, i'm:
worthy of u woman. Never hnVo
presented myself before an audience
without a shrinking feeling of rcluc-
lance, or withdrawn from their presence
without thinking the excitement [ had
undergone unhealthy, and the personal
exhibition odious."

Hope Deferred.

His hand at last! By his own fingers writ,

His hand-oh, reach it to me quick land yet
Scarce can 1 hold, 80 fast my pulses beat.

Oh, passion-lettered scroll from DER the

Joy, strength, and bright content como back

Why is it that our loved ones grow moro
