Talk of Witches

Rides on broomsticks, Mazeppa

to the strange fantastic ride that a
Young man took across the Plaza
yesterday. in the sight of hundreds
Of astonished spectators. The young
man on attempting to mount his
horse, found his feet cntanglcd in
the larict, which dangled from the
saddle, and the horse taking fright,
he fell to the ground. The horse
dashed off at full speed and the end
of the lariet was fastened on his legs.
With great presence of mind he
seized the rope in his hands and
away they went across the Plaza, the
flying steed, the young man on the
ground, sled fashion and the dust
rolling up in clouds as he plowed a
deep furrow in his rapid speed.
Fortunately what might have been
a serious accident, was prevented by
the presence of mind of young
man standing in the line of the fly
ing stced and rider, who with an
open knife rushed up, and as they
were whizzing by, with a lucky
stroke of the knife, cut the rope in two
The young man was fortunately IN
tie hurt, and picking himself up and
shaking a barrel of dirt off him,
shook hands with the man Of the
knife, thanking him for the quick
witted salvation, and went on his
way. 1t was fortunate as it turned
out, that no harm was done, but
never such another ride was seen
since the Plaza was laid out, and
wont be again for many day.

disaster has occurred at Tientsin, A refugee
house, in which famine.stricken refugees
from the northern provinces had assembled,
took fire, and Of nearly three thousand
people In the building, only one hundred
escaped, The extremely cold weather that
has prevailed has had fatal effect on the
refugees many of whom have frozen to death,
while thousands are suffering from insufficient
accommodation or lack of food, which can.
not be supplied in quantities to meet the
demand. Charles Ludd, of the China island
mission at Wachung, who has recently vis-
tied the famine.stricken province Of Shensi,
writes heartrendiDg account OF the suffer.
ing he has witnessed The efforts OF the
government to supply food and assistance
has been, to a great extent, nullifed by The
dishonesty OF officials. Children are sold by
hundreds by starving parents. In the large
cities of Houchcng and Pucheng risings
have occurred among the people, rendered
desperate by seeing wives and children
starving before their faces, aud many outs
breaks are reported. In Pucheng the people
beheaded the mandarin for spcculating on
their necessities. The weather has been
unusually cold throughout the country for
several weeks. The money market is very
light lately, but arrivals from England and
