STRONG JAMIE.

The Berwickshire journals, in 1874, gave
much information concerning this remark
able man. Though short of stature, he pos
sessed prodigious strength, which earned
for him the familiar cognomen of Jamie
Strang," or ''Strong Jamie" A writer in
the Berwick Advertiser said: "We have
heard him state that the greatest weight he
ever lifted from the ground was 1O5 stone,
and that he had lifted S5 stone with one
hand. When the Forfarshire Militia were
encamped at Eyemouth, he went to; see an
acquaintance among them. While there, .
dancing master was boosting much of his
strength, whereupon one of the soldiers,
knowing Stuart, engaged to provide q drum
mer who would lift more than the aboaster
could. Stuart, dressed as drummer, was
brought in. A piece of ordnance was lying
before them, which the dancing-master
raised to the perpendicular, and then al
lowed to fall He asked the drummer
whether he could do that. Stuart pretended
that he was not very sure that he could
but placing his arms round the cannon, he
raised it entirely from the ground, and car
ried it some distance. At another time,
when at Velvet Hall, near Berwick, some
countrymen were labOring to get cart
laden with hay out of miry hole into
which by some accident it had stuck fast,
Stuart was appealed to for assistance. He
desired them all to stand aside, and, going
underneath the cart, removed it with its
load to the opposite side of the road" This
extraordinary man Git is averred in many
quarters) actually went fddling about the
country till near one hundred and fourteen
years old. A small sum was then collected
for him, toward which the Queen and the
late Sir Robert Peel contributed. Stuart de-
clared that he '' hadna been sac weel off this
hunder year" At length his career closed.
He died at Tweedmouth on the 11th of
April, 1874, and was buried on the 14th, in
the presence of vast concourse of specta-
tors. The Berwick AdDertiser, a few days
afterward, contained an advertisement re-
lating to statuettes of the veteran.-CAama-
ders's Journal.

ADOCTOR,s SUICIDE.

Mrs De Pas was i'll with tumor in San
Francisco, and the only possible means of
saving her life was surgical operation. 1t
was almost certain that she would not sur
vive this, according to the opinion of sew
eral physicians, no matter how skillfully it
might be reformed. DIR. Charles b. Chap
man, a surgeon of considerable note, took
the case, and was unremitting IN his atten-
ton. On the night after the operation,
when it had become evident that Mrs. De
Pas must die, he went into the adjoining
room and committed suicide, after writing,
8" have killed Mrs. De Pas, and for this
will kill myself" There was no proof that
what he had done for the patient was wrong
in any way.

it by paying the concierge more. If you
give ball or a dinner-party, you have to
tip the concierge. In short, the reader will
understand that the concierge is nuisance
which can be modified and appeased but
not abolished. As for the locataires, or ten
ants, yon may have the proprietor himself
on the first floor, Countess and cocotte
on the second, dress make and 8 financier
on the third, bourgeois family or two on
the fourth, a literary man on the fifth, and
an artist or photographer on the sixth
floor. You may, however, live for 20 years
in house and never see your opposite
lneiehbor, or know who or she is, and what
he or she does.-AH the Year Round.

HE GUESSED HE'D PAY.

John Williams, a merchant at Rutledge,
Ca, sued desperate. The fellow entered
the store in furious passion, held out the
summons in one hand, clutched along knife
in the other, and said: civilians, have
YOU sued me?" Williams knew that an inn
mediate Yes" would make him sure of q
stab. "Let me get my spectacles, so that

THE MODE OF Sucking: OF THE ELE
PHANT CALI s=f7.--lz -

In some of the accounts recently published
of the birth of an elephant in q menagerie
in America, it is stated that up to this time
naturalists had always believed that the ele-
phant calf obtained its mothers milk by
means of its trunk, and not directly by the
mouth. Whether tRis be the case or not,
Aristotle was certainly an exception, as the
following passage from the 9th chapter of
clearly proves And the calf, when it is
born, sucks with its mouth and not with its
trunk; and it both walks and sees as soon
as it is born Mature.
