CHILDREN ATTACKED BY AN EAGLE.-While lit
tie August Barr, aged seven years, was playing
with his StSterS-One five years old and the other
three-near his fathers house, in Lake county,
Iowa, few days ago, an enormous eagle
pounced down upon them throwing the two
girls to the ground. 1t Immediately attacked the
younger one, graSping one OF the childS arms
with the claws OF one foot while the claws of
the other foot were deeply buried in the child'S
face, and 1t attempted TO carry the child on,
but was prevented by the little ones struggles
Little August seeing that he could do nothing
with his own hands to help his sister, ran quickly
into the house, got the butcher-knife and
whacked away at the eagles legs, cutting one Of
them severely near the foot, whereupon the saw
age bird let go of the little girl and attacked the
boy, knocking him over, tearing his pantaloOns
and giving him some severe scratches. In the
meantime the screams Of the children brought
out their mother, whereupon the eagle flew of to
the barn, ON which it sat until Mr.. Barr shot
him dead. The bird measured seven feet from
wing-tip to wing-tip. Its NAV was empty,
which made it clear that hunger had caused the

PRESENCE OF MIND.-In Bergen county, New
Jersey, there lives colored man, mute, who
had great fear of railroads from a brother, who
was also mute, having been killed while walk
walk on the track, conscious of the danger he
ran. One day not long since he forgot his usual
caution, and was overtaken by a freight train.
Becoming aware of the train when it was close
upon him, he threw himself down fiat between
the rails. The pilot OF the engine just grazed
the back of his head, driving his face into the
gravel The whole Train passed over MIN and
to pick up, as they supposed, his dead body.
They found him lying still. badly frightened,
with his face cut by the gravel. His head was
not hurt, though the engineer felt a jar when the
pilot touched him. The thickness of his skull
doubtless saved his life. He was taken to Hack
enSack, where his cuts on the face were dressed
and he walked back home, but not on the track
