A MAN GOES OVER TIE FALLS !!
And disappears beneath the foaming bill

o 'clock, a tine-looking, well-dressed gen.
tleman was seen walking across the sus-
pension bridge with cigar in his mouth,
smoking quite leisurely. There was moth
ing strange i'll his manne~, and many peo-
pie thought nothing wrong until they saw
him leap from the bridge over the railing,
into the mighty waters beneath. The
people On the bridge were awe-struck
and poweriess to render HIM assistance,
and with feelings of deep regrets, tears
TILED their eyes. They stood silently
watching as he struggled with the rushing
telnpest-tossed waters, and as he was car
ried\ oyer the roaring cataract, they
noticed he was still putting away at one
of those famous "TANsILL's PUNCH'
Cigars, apparently reconciled to his fate,
enjoying\such luxury, and from amid
the rushing waters the faint sound reach
the ears ofthe terrified observers; Call

Mr. EI,fur II find the following

Mr.. Editor - find the following
in the Kiaston Free Press Of last
week:
prof Reade gave an entertainment
at the Academy saturday night. Judg-
ing from remarks your correspondent
heard don't think his audience was very
much pleased. From the newspaper
reports they expected to be highly enter
tanned but instead they Witnessed only
few facial contortlons and heard the
reading of a few numerous recitations
something that would please the children
but fail to edlfy and enlighten grown peo-
pie. Think it would have been much more
gratifying to his audience II they had con-
trlbuted to the Orphan Asylum. The
American people are world renowned Tor
being easily humbuged; bat don't think
the professor can humbug La Grange
audience any more.
Permit me to say that this is the
first audience | ever heard of that
failed to enjoy Prof. Reade's enter
tainments. 1t is fortunate fCr the
correspondent of the Free Press
that he judged of the entertainment
from ..remurks" that he heard others
make, for l am quite sure that it
wonld be a severe comment on his
ability to appreciate good reading
for him TO make the above statement
on his own authority. This was no
doubt intended as q libel on Prof
Reade, bat 1t will not be likely to

man who can, by his rendering of
Hora:ius at the Bridge, take us to
the banks of the Tiber and place us
in the very midst of the excited hosts

10 see the brave trio that stands upon
the timhers OF the falling bridge and
lids defiance to an opposing army,
yno can set before is the life OF the
most interesting character OF the

A New Use for Rabbits.

An interview with New York stationer
says: Now" said Mr.. Brown, as he
closed the box with a snap, 81 am going,
perhaps, to stuff nice white rabbits, perhaps
four or five thousand of them, and put
them on top Of those writing desks. How
uetty a white RABBIT will look on a brown
toiyet box. / will get rabbits from two
weeks 70 three months old, and will use
them not only on writing desks, but on
bon-bon boxes and children's toys. IL Is
strange II was not thought OF before, and
vet am not certain whether l will go into
Il AT ali; the speculation is almost too
risky. There is no telling what people
want in fashions. The rabbits would
cost, dead, about twenty cents each,
and a good hand could skin about
sixty Of them day and prepare them for
the taxidermist, who could stun probably
twelve in day. We could have them in
every natural attitude. We could have
them running, hiding, every way, eating
grass and looking for grass 10 eat. The
ordinary American hare, when young and
cute, !" make very pretty stuffed ornaments.
But, then, they are extremely hard 20 get.
Great numbers. however, might be taken
ON The prairies Of the west, where they
share the underground houses OF the prfir1e
dogs. Every one is now wanting stuffed
articles, and would not be surprised n a
number of men will be employed on the
coast of Labrador gathering the fuzzy little
voupe Of the wild duck, which makes the
most amusing and Just now the most popu-
lar Of stuffed animals. When they are
taken. their brains and tails being removed,
they are sprinklsd with arsenic and are
packed in straw, and in that condition keep
fresh for years"

The portrait OF the late President Grrlield
in mosaic, which is soon to be sent to this
country, comes from London. The mosaic
portrait of President Garfield, which Com
mendatore Salviati has caused to be exc
cuted at the well-known establishment in
Venice as present to the American people,
and which Messrs. Tiffany have undertaken
to present for him, TO be placed side by side
with that of Lincoln, which DR.. Salviati
gave after the assassination OF that great
man. has arrived in London on its way to
the United States, and is now exhibited at
Salviati's gallery. 81 Regent street, next
the Polytechnic. 1t is wonderful work OF
ar., proclaimed W aii oonlpetehe Juuses
who have viewed Il to be not only most
perfect likeness, but also one Of the, II
not the finest specimen of this art extant.
Although formed by not less than 5000
small squares of enamel, II has all the deli
cacy and finish Of an oil painting, with this
additional advantage, that It is imperisha-
Bile, and that for all time IL will endure,
'unchanging and unchanged" carrying
down 10 remote posterity the noble like
ness OF the regretted president long after
other portraits of him are faded and lost.
The superiority Of mosaic portrait over
oil painting, or even sculpture, is It's dura-
bility, which is almost eternal, for II does
lose colcr, fade, or change in any way-tacts
which are proved by the marvellous fresh,
ness Of the. ancient mosaics OF Rome and
Venice, which have come down 70 US I'M
touched BY the hand OF time. DIR. Salyiati,
when he revived this art thirty years ago,
conferred a lasting benefit on those who
wish that future generations should peruse
the linesments OF the famous men OF our
dav. The London Times pronounces this
TO be the finest mosaic ever seen In London.
