AN INTERESTING LION SToRY.

The memory of the lion was preserved
in its ancient haunts long after it be-
came extinct. The scene of one of the
prettiest stories told by 0Elion is laid in
Mount Pangrum, which, from its men,
ton By Xenophon, must have been fa-
nous haunt for lions
Eudemus tells the tale that in Pam
grum, in Thrace, bear attacked the
lair of lion while it was unguarded and
killed the cubs that were too small and
too weak to defend themselves. And
when the father and the mother came
home from hunting somewhere, and saw
their children lying dead they were much
aggrieyed and attacked the bear but
she was afraid and climbed up into a
tree as fast as she could and settled her
self down, trying TO avoid the attack.
Now, when they saw that they could
not ayenge themselves on her, the lion
ess did not cease 10 watch the tree, but
sat down in ambush at the foot, eying
the bear that was covered with blood.
But the lion, as it were, without purpose
and dis.raugh. with grief, after the man
ner of a man, rushed off to the noun
tains, and chanced to light on a wood
cutter, who, in terror, let fall his axe
but the lion fawned upon him, and
reaching up saluted him as well as he
could, and licked his face with his tongue.
And the man took courage. Then
the lion encirc,ed him with his tail. and
led him, and did not suffer him 70 leave
his axe behind, but pointed with his foot
for i, to be taken Up. And when the
man did not understand he took it up in
his mouth and reached it to him. Then
he followed while the lion led HIM 10 MS
den. And when the lioness saw him
she came and made signs, looking at the
pitiable spectacle then up at the bear.
Then the man perceived and understood
that the lion had suffered cruel wrong
from the bear, and cat down the tree
with might and main. And the tree
fell, and the lions tore the bear in pieces:
but the man the lion led back again
safe and sound, to the place where ne
lighted on him, and returned him to tn
very tree he had been cuttiug.-Sr'enc~

THE NlGHrlNGAIF'S LAST SoNC.-
During the past eight years Mrs. Ben
nett of Canaan, in Connecticut, has
owned beautiful Virginia nightingale.
She named it Bob, and when in an adj
Joining room she said Bob, do You want

and respond with whistle, or some lit-
tie note, manifesting his delight, which
his mistress understood. Last August
Bob had fit. He rolled over on his
back and stuck up his legs. His mis-
tress was alarmed. She soaked his feet
in warm water, gave him pepper-corns
and little anconite pills. He revivei
little, sitting upon his perch, soIemnly
and stupidly. His plumage was not
so smooth as formerly. His sweet notes
no longer charmed the household. Not
note escaped his throat for three
months. Old age had mastered Bob and
pepper. corns could not rouse him to the
singing pitch. But one day in NOvem-
Der, after three months of sickness and
silence, Bob suddenly broke out in full
tune, and he sung his old notes over
again. Mrs. Bennett says in his best
estate the bird never sang more sweetIy
or cheerily. Full musical, and lively
was every note, and she was delighted
at what appeared to be complete recov-
cry of her pet bird. But the moment
be had finished the last of his round ol
notes beautifully and sweetly, Bob turn.

On a plea Of being able to assist him

to his ,wifes telling her to give him n

explained to her meant tho package of

was acquainted with. the theft, and re-
,tuscdsto' give up the "book.'" Tho de-
teotive' urged herso STRONGLY, however,
that she concluded to ask the advice of

needless to add, secured tho money tc
the officer. Only $500 had been talcn
from the parcel. Maroney was subsc-
qncntly taken to Montgomery and con-
ylcted: He did not know, however, of
the evidence against him or tho recovery
OF the money until the officer walked
INTO the court and took tho witness chair.
The great Adams Express robbery at

under the supervision of Mr. Bangs, who

Wonderful SHOOTING,

At the Maine military encampment
the 100 men selected to give an exhibi.
hon sklrmish shoot for the benefit of
visitors did some wonderful SHOOTING
and received many compliments from
the visitors. One Thousand shots were
tirod, each man firing five shots on ad.
vance and five on retreat. The distances
were from eighty to 200 yards. The
total hits on the target "a No. 81 were
$50 out of possible 1000. The anal.
ysis shows rs bnlll s-eyes, 363 centres
1886 inners, 1875 cutters. When it is re-.
membered that the size of the target ia
not larger than the space occupied by
two average men standing side by side,
some conception of the wonderful accur-
Ncy of the shooting may be gained.
