An Eagle in Chains.

A few days since Sylvester J. Camp
bell, a ten-year old lad, was out in his
fathers yard in West Gardner, when he
saw an eagle fv down in the rear Of his
house in quest of his dinner. The bird
was evidently tired; for he carried on
one of his talons a trap with an iron
chain three feet long attached to it.
How long he had been carrying the
tap, Of course, Is matter of conjecture.
But the lad seized the bird by the neck
and got him under, although at consid-
cradle risk, as he is a powerful eaGle and
made desperate resistance. The boy
finally secured him, and his mother
brought the proud bird to Lewiston,
Wednesday, recounting the adventure
of her son with pardonable enthusiasm.

A ROW IN THE HUNGARIAN DIET.
\ Pesth cablegram of Oct. 2lst SAYS:
At the reassembling of the Hungarian
Diet Saturday, CREST excitement was
caused by Deputy Iranii, radical. He
protested against hosting the yellow
and black flag which he declared sym.
bolized unity with Austria and which
was not recognized by the Hungarian
constitution. He also claimed that as
the members of the diet were compelled
to hear the royal speech standing, the
emperor should read 1t standing, as the
rights of the throne and diet were equal.
The royal speech, which was read Sun
day, is entirely colorless, as the ministry
now acting is only provisional.

4 RObber.I'rOOf Safe.

The Omaha Bee, of the 10th instant.
says; Mr. Salisbury, of Salt Lake, one
Of the propretors of the Cheyenne and
Black Hills stage line, passed through
the city on Tuesday, on his way West.
He had been to Cincinnati to make mr..
engagements for the construction of a
burglar-proof safe, to be used on the
Cheyenne and Black Hills treasure
coach. He says T. at this safe is to be so
m ade that it will withstand the opera
tons of stage-robbers for ffty-six hours
of uninterrupted work. The builders
of the safe, which is to weigh one ton,
will guarantee it to do this, and further
more, will agree to make good any loss
If the safe is opened within ffly-six
hours. Mr.. Salisbury states that if the
contemplated safe. which is to be COM
pleted within two weeks, comes up to
his expectations and the representa-
tons of the builders, he will have six
more made for the transportation of
treasure. He says that although the
recent robbery of $4,000 was heavy
blow, the company does not propose to
abandon the business, but will make
more strenuous efforts than ever before
tn carry all treasure that may be offer
ed to them. The iifty-six-hour safe will
afford ample time to give the alarm, in
case it is attacked by robbers, to send
out force sufficient to recapture it,

The Fdn(uHa tells an interesting story
of an impresaro who recently set sail
from Italy for New Orleans with an
opera troupe. On the voyage three
men discovered that they had been en-
gagged as tenors-only and absolute
tenors. A tremendous row was the re-
suit, at the conclusion Of which they
went to hunt for the manager and up
braid him for his treachery He re-
piled: "My children, know that peo-
pie wholly unworthy OF 'egard have
lowered the profession of lmpresario in
the public eyes. /, however, am an
honest man, and you can depend upon
my loyal performance of my Obligations.
In each of your contracts it is provided
that there shall be but one leading
tenor. There are three Of you. How
ever, no sooner shall we arrive at New
Orleans t. an one Of yon will in all
probability die of yellow fever; the
death of another may be confidently ex-
Dected during the period of rehearsal,
and so when we really begin business
there will be but one Of you left. He
will be the sole and leading tenor of the
company"
