Bargain with Satan.

There is an old fable that says that
an Irish minister was riding along one
day when he met Sltan, who wanted TO
make a bargain with him for his soul.
and promised he would do any three
things the minister required as part OF
the agreemet, if the minister would
surrerder.
They came 10 terms, so the fable
goes, and Satan asked, What is the
first thin9Y
L want you 10 make road through
the bog. J. have 10 travel around it,
and it is very disagreeable.'
At the end of month Satan re-
ported Il at the first )ndition was iul-
filed and a road had been made through
the hitherto impossible Dog.
Now said the minister, [ want
you to make a roand through the high
and steep mountain. have to drive
over it, and ii is very hard travelling
The fable says that Satan made the
road and came and told the minister,
and asked him what was now the third
thing to be done.
'I want YOU said the minister, 'tC
find me a respectable, quiet, goo6
Christian man that keeps gambling
saloon
You've got me there, old fellow,
said Satan. This Is something cam
do. There never was such a thing
So Satan was defeated, and the min-
lster got the best of the bargain.

Beginning TO Squeeze

and the papers went to Washington, to
be hidden away among the cobwebs

but examine them. After .hree months
had passed, a young man called to ask
about the case, and regularly every
ninety days; since that time, he dropped
in with his
well, any good news for the Widder
Jennings?'
At his last visit the other day the
lawyer replied after the same stereoty-
ped fashion, and added;

FerOcify of Tigers.

A traveller tells The following story OF
the way in which one tiger terrorized a
whole community. The captain showed
me the skin OF large tiger, which, a
short time since, killed three natives in
four nights IN this place. The village
is surrounded by a stockade to keep out
these ravenous beasts, aud the gate Is
guarded at night by native armed
with a muskei. One evening this
tiger stole up behind the guard. sprang
upon him, and, as a native said who
chanced to see it. killed him instantly
with a blow of her paw on the back Of
his neck. She then caught him up and
ran away with him. The next day the
body was found partly eaten. and was
buried very deep to keep it out Of her
reach. The second evening she seized
and carried of a native who was bath
ing in the stream at the foot OF the cliff.
The captain now found he must try and
destroy her, and therefore loaded
musket with a very heavy charge OF
powder and two bullets. The Gun was
then lashed firmly to tree, aud large
piece of fresh meat was fastened to the
muzze, so that when she attempted to
take it away, she would discharge the
piece and receive both bullets. The
next morning they found a piece of
her tongue on the ground near the
muzzle of the gun, and the same trap
was set again; but tie next night she
came back and took away second
man on guard at the gate Of .he stock
ade. The captain now started with a
corporal and eight men, determined TO
hunt her down. The tracked her 10 a
place filed with tall grass, and, closing
around that. slowly advanced, until two
or three OF them heard a growl, when
they all fired aud killed her instantly.
1t proved to be female, and she had
evidently been so daring for the purpose
Of procuring food for her young.
