About AiligatOrs.

Every lake that saw in South Flor
ida large enough had its family Of ALI
gators. Near tho settlements where
they are frequently shot at they dis
appear at the approach OF man. They
visit each other from lake to lake.
When q man, woman or child over.
takes one in the woods the beast runs
to the nearest water. II hemmed, he
stops, swells and blows like mad
bull. They handle their tails right
lively In resisting an enemy or Tipping
a hog or dog into their great mouths.
I remember asking what they eat.
Anything from pine knot down."
was the answer, as il q pine, knot was
their highest food. When their stom-
achs are opened they are found to con-
tain pine knots and black mud from
the bottoms Of The lates. They eat,
however, many OF the best fish and the
largest turtles OF the lakes.
The Floridians do not think the
gators" dangerous. Boys go into
the lakes swimming where the alligator
lives and are not disturbed. One
twelve foot long is considered grown.
Down in the Kissimee river they grow
to an enormous size, having been seen
eighteen feet long. Those that are not
accustomed to man, am told, are dan
gerous. heard Of young man that
was bitten while swimming In the Kis-
since and soon died. Their teeth
occupy a prominent place in Florida
jewelry. Some people eat their tails.
Just before rain they are heard 10 bel
low somewhat like young calf. At
night they frequently make great
splashing in the water. r.--Nashriue

A Warming 10 Some Women.

There is another warning to ladies at
all disposed to attend to matrimonial
advertisements. A widow respectfully
connected, young and rich, and, 10
doubt, of charming exterior, residing
in the neighborhood of tho imperial
city upon the banks OF the blue Danube,
was struck with the captivating mode
OF expression of matrimonial advei-
tisenent in a respectable Vienna paper
and resolved, for thefun of the matter
to respond to it.
But the correspondent was by no
means above little banter, and that
was the way the correspondence, car.
ried on anonymously, was spun out TO
considerable dimensions, until at last
the two writer's divulged to each other
their names, and had an irrepressible
wish of getting glimpse of each
other.
Could he have had different looks
Did he not al the while fancy her just
as he saw her now before him? No
doubt they had known each other Gi-
ways, from the receipt of the first letter,
and there. was nothing to prevent the
loving couple to appoint the happy day
which was to make them one. The
preparations for the marriage were pro-
crossing rapidly, when, one fine day,
the lady had occasion to 90 to the pc
lice station in order to find out SER
want who had suddenly left her employ.
carrying with him. by mistake, OF
course, sundry articles the. lady had
until that time been led to consider her
property. The supposed thief had not
yet been apprehended, and the polics
officer, in order to facilitate the bust
ness Of tracking him. requested the
lady to look with him over the photo
graphs in his album Of criminals known
10 the police.
There was the thievish servant, no
doubt, q vagabond well known to the
police. "But, who is that" suddenly
cried the lady in shrieking voice fut.
tering with the most intense excitement,
her trembling finger pointing to tho
photograph of gentlemanly- looking
man portrayed in the album. There
was the man upon whom she had lately
lavished her affections, and whom she
had already fondly pressed to her heart
as her only beloved Harry. The police
officer, with the most authoritative voice
he could muster at the moment, read to
the lady the name and description of
the man, who was stated to be gam
bier and card-sharper who had several
times come under the coenizance Of
the criminal law. The lady, il need
hardly be added, lost no time incoun-
termanding her wedding prepssStions.

A Remarkable Gun.

In the late war between Chill and
Peru curious accident befell an eight
inch Armstrong gun on board the Chill
ian warship Angamos. The last time
1t was fired, the gun which was on
deck slipped out Of the trunnion ring,
few backward fcross the ship and
leaped into the sea. This was the singu-
lar end OF rather remarkable history.
The gun was supplied TO the Ohilians
before the war by Sir William Arm
strong's firm, and proved formidable
terror 10 Peru. The Angamos was pre-
yiously an Irish pig-boat, and was ac.
quired by Chilli for the purpose Of car
rying this one gun, which, standing of
at long ranges OF 10000 yards or so,
she could do with impunity. The Peru
yians at length sent out their feet OF
gunbosis TO destroy this waspish an
tagonist, when the other Chilian ships.
with their short rangers, came into
action and drew of the guIboats, all
but one, which was sent TO engage the
Angamos at close quarters. The Arm
strong gun, however, sent n shower OF
Shrapnel bullets on to her decks and
the gunboat reticated. As she was
nearing port, pot shot from the eight
inch gun, fred at long range and high
elevation. managed TO hit and sink her.
The gun therefore did plenty Of hard
work and valuable service before il
finally gave way and was lost in the
sea.
