A Duelist's Death Bed.

Not long ago there died at the Hotel
Dieu, Paris, Cadondal, an odd and quar-
relsome character, whose anxiety to
fight with anybody on any preteXt or
none was not more absurdly excessive
than that described in "Romeo and
Juliet" The reams of paper he con-
sumed in writing challenges, the thou
sands upon thousands of friends he sent
to thousands of opponents, who would
be bold enough to compute? As the
old man lay dying in the hospital a
priest was sent for to afford him the
last consolation of religion. The
worthy father did not spare to tell him
frankly in what condition he was. how
obnoxious to Heaven was the desperate
life he had led, and the necessity for
his prompt and thorough repentance.
When the good priest had left him Ca
dondal beckoned feebly to friend who
was watching by his bedside, and whis
pered hoarsely:
"Take down that priests address.
He has used language to me that |
won't take from any man living. III

Driesbach, the Lion. Tanner.

HERR DRIESBACH, the well-knOwn
lion-tamer, died recently at Apple Greek
Station, Wayne County, Ohio, at the
age of seventy years. Herr Driesbach,
or Jake Driesbach, as he was known
when boy, was born in Sharon, Scho-
harie County, N. Y, on the I'd of No
vember, 1907. He was the seventh of
a family of ten children. His father
was carpenter, and young Driesbach
worked with him at the same business
until the year 1884, when he secured a
position in shipping-house in New
York city. At the hotel where he
boarded also boarded some of the en-
ployes of the Geological Gardens, with
whom he became acquainted. Not hay
ing employment in the shipping-house
during the wintermonths, he got work in
the Garden. One day he was set to
clean the cage of Brazilian tiger. 1t
was the custom to remain on the out
side to clean it. Not being satisfied
with this mode of proceeding, when the
men were absent he crept into the cage
and began to clean. Some of the men
soon came around, and, seeing Dries
bach in the cage with the wild beast
they told him "to get out;'' o he would
get killed." "nobody had ever been in
there before" etc. Jake told them he
guessed not; he would attend to that;
he wanted to get the ching clean
once"
Not long after this Driesbach trained
several animals, and Mr.. Raymond,
who was at the time one of the stock
holders of the concern, shipped him to
Europe. In England he met with I'M
precedented success, showing in Lon
don before the Queen and other nota-
bles. From London he went to Paris.
where he exhibited in the National
Theater before the crowned heads and
notables. From there he went to Lyons,
Avignon, Bordeaux, etc. then back to
England, Ireland and Scotland, visiting
all the principal cities. His fame was
established, and when he returned
home he was greeted with overlooking
houses at the Bowery Theater and else
where. This was about the year 1910.
He filled two weeks engagement at
the Bowery.
President Van Buren, thoughtJake and
his wonderful lions curiosities. and was
at the Bowery one night when Driesbach
drove his favorite across the stage in a
golden chariot. Boston, Philadelphia,
Baltimore, etc, were next visited Three
plays were written expressly for him,
with parts for him and his pets. These
he produced in grand style, with full
companies, wherever he went. The
following summer Herr Driesbach's
menagerie was put on the road Ray
mond q Weekes were the proprietors.
The first colored show posters that were
ever printed were got out for this me-

The Soldiers Of Montenegro.

In a recently-published account OF
the Montenegrin army, some details
are given of extraordinary marches
which have been made by its soldiers
during the present war with Turkey.
Before the battle of Butschidel the force
engaged had marched for fourteen
hours across the country, over hill and
dale, having, moreover, been previous
ly under arms for six hours. On this
occasion the men had not a mouthful
of food from daybreak until midnight;
the day was intensely hot, the country
trayersed was mountainous and diff
cult, and yet not a man was left be-
hind. When marching from place to
place the Montenegrins never follow
the roads, but move straight across
country. Although heavily laden, the
men easily climb the steepest rocks or
descend the most precipitous slopes.
Besides their weapons they carry invari-
ably " torba" and " struka.n Their
arms consist usually of a rifle, a cutlass,
and revolver or brace of pistols. The
"torba,n or bread bag, contains gener-
ally an enormous loaf of bread, biscuit,
a flask, and IA reserve of cartridges
The ammunition for immediate use, as
well as money and any other small
articles, are carried in the belt. The
"struka" is a large, heavy plaid,
which serves as a cloak, a rug, or a
covering. When it rains and the army
is halted, the soldier wraps up his head
in his "struka," rolls it round his
body, puts his gun in its leather case,
and lies down and sleeps, needless of
the weather.

As | WAS going off with my party,
heard young lady in front of me re-
mark in French to young lady friend
who had come to meet her: 81 have six
dozen kid gloves sewed up in my petit
coat, and mamma has a piece of silk
made up in hers" As / smiled at the
remark, the young lady caught my
glance, blushed to the tip of her nose,
and fastened on in great confusion.
My companions informed me that she
was the daughter of member of Con-
gress from the West, and that he was a
wealthy man. But the temptation to
do little smuggling was too great to
be resisted by these ladies.-NeW York

Of the older missions in Polynesia, Aus
