From the Prophet downward cameps
flesh has been esteemed by the ruder
among the faithful as dainty strength
imparting meat. About six years ago,
when in camp on our northwest frontier
with a friend now at Cabul, we both
tried camel-steak for our dinner, and
tough, stringy, and strong tasted we
found it. A camel had slipped down a
crevice close to our tents. Being worth
from f6 to fS, every means was tried to
extricate the unfortunate brute, but in
vain. 1t was SO firmly japmed that
neither ropes nor digging were any
avail. At last man was lowered to
the spot, and with a bisnssltah lin the
name of God), the camel's throat was
cut. An hour later some thirty strong
men were gorging themselves with its
flesh.-Blackwood's Magazine.

The house was an old one, dry as finder
from the prolonged heat, and as fast as
the flames were quenched in one place
they broke out in another. When day
dawned the fire had already got a firm
hold of one corner of the building, and
a crushing discharge was poured upon
all who attempted to extinguish it, while
the triumphant yells of the human tigers
below told that they felt sure of their

At that moment Major Armstrong was

listening intently, for he. thought
though he could scarcely believe his
ears-that he had suddenly caught a
faint sound of distant firing. In an
other instant he heard it again, and this
time there could be no more doubt, for
several of the others had caught it like
wise, and agleam Of hope once more
lighted up their haggard faces and
blood-shot eyes. Louder and nearer

Almost Buried Alive.

A strange story came to the ears OF
an Indianapolis reporter, the other day,
which had been related to a group. of
men at one of our hotels. The genfle-
man who gave the narrative was imme-
diately hunted up and asked to repeat
it. On account of the fact that he
might be embarrassed by strangers call
ing ON him who would read the incident,
we omit his name, as well as the place
where he is stopping. He, said that in
1877, when the first yellow fever ap-
peared in the city of Memphis, he was
there on business. He had been there
for several weeks, and then first Tex.
perieneed a -drowsy sensation This
was followed in q week or ten days by
the fever in all its fury, which rendered
him unconscious. He lay for some time
in this condition, his life being in pre-
carious state. After time he seemed
to be overcome by the disease,
and gradually grew weaker, until at
last all pulsation had stopped and the
breathing was no longer apparent. AT
that time it was the custom to hurry the
corpse to the graveyard, without
any ceremony. He was placed in a
rude box and hurried away to the GENE
terry, followed by a single friend. On
the way to the grave, however, his
friend felt a conviction that he was not
dead, and ordered the procession to
stop. The box was taken back to the
place of starting, and his body again
placed on cot. After a few hours oil
patient watching, asslight movement OF
the face and upper portions of the body
was observed. An examination was
made Of the pulse, which was found to
be family beating, while respiration was
apparent. In few hours more the
gentleman was aroused, and Unless
than thirty-six hours he was sitting up.
He recovered rapidly, and in the course
of a few days was able to get up and
move around. Meanwhile the Assoc
ciated Press dispatches had contained
an account of his death from fever, and
his family inNew York, City,, and one
son, working ON the Bee Line road,
had mourned for him as one gone
from the face of the earth. After his
recovery he went to Texas, and
from there he crossed over into New
Mexico. He was gone on this trip about
two months, during which time he
wrote to his relatives, announcing his
restoration to health. He soon after
ward came North, as the quarantine
against Southern traffic and travel
was raised, and eventually landed in
this city, where he met his son,
who was as much rejoiced at the meet
ing as if his father had been raised
from the dead. Itwas learned that his
letters had been miscarried, and he
wrote at once TO New York. again an
nouncing his recovery. i''@
The gentleman who told this strange
story isa man of powerful fraine.5 His
weight used to be 215 pounds, but it
will not now exceed 1877, which leaves
him yet a very hearty, robust man. He
said he was satisfied that numbers OF
persons were not dead who were buried
in the yellow fever districts of the South,
but had continued until interment in a
c0mafosn state

The Hartford Burglars.

one Pleads Guilty and Makes a Full
 COnfessfOn-Altemp to ChlOrOfOrm a
 Pawn Broker
 The examination of the burglars Albert Cherry and Charles Tatro, the two men charged with committing Q number of bur gIaries in Hartford and also conspiring to chloroform and rob MT. Moses Ballerstein, the pawnbroker, took place yesterday in the Hartford police court before Judge Eggles- ton. Judge Monroe E. Merrill, who had been engaged to defend Iatro, declined to accept the place, and MT. Merwin appeared for him. Four charges of burglary, at the residences of Mrs. O. G. Terry, George Fl. Burdick, Henry Kellogg and Captain John M. Parker, were preferred against both men; also the charge of conspiring to rob MT. Ballerstein. To all Cherry pleaded guilty and Tatro not guilty.
 The most important testimony WAS that given by Cherry, one of the accused, who gave a complete history of the burglarious operations of himself and Tatro. He said he was induced to commit the burglaries by Tatro, who shared in the proceeds. One of their schemes, he said, was to chlorotorm an old pawnbroker named Ballerstein and then rob him. Tatro's plan was that Cherry should chlorofoFm the old man and then he (Tatro) was to come in and commit the robbery. This was so that Ballerstein would not recognize him. They met the next night, when Tatro went up into the pawnbroker's shop and came back and said that boy was there. The next night Oh erry went in and asked Ballerstein to show him some rings. There was 8 very pretty girl there, and he forgot all about the theft, and thought if he could have . girl like her he would be happy for life. He had an eye on the girl and his finger on the rings while Bal lerstein had his eye on him. The next night Tatro went over to the shop, and as soon as he got into the room Ballerstein opened the win dow. This made Cherry laugh. Tatro came back and said ''he believed the old man had dropped on them.'' He proposed to chloro- form the old man at the South Green on his way home. They went there, but did not see the old man. Then Cherry told Tatro that Ballerstein might go to h-l. Tatro then help him. He told him of Pat Warren, and he (Tatro) sent him after the man. All met near the postoffice and went into gangway near the Charter Oak building, where they talked the matter over, but did not agree up on any plan. It was proposed to meet the next day in house on Charles street. They met there, but Tatro did not like the place, nor did he like the man Patrick Warren, whom he thought would get drunk and give posed the burglaries. He would pick out the house and Cherry was to do the work.
 When Tatro took the stand he denied every thing Cherry had said, but very few if any believed what he was saying. The hearing continued late into the afternoon.
