CAUGHT BY AN oCToPUs.

A diver who was trying to find pearls off
the Alaska coast, found none, but found
himself all of sudden, in the grasp of an
ugiy octopus with arms twenty-seven feet
long. Such an experience is rare; but
there are thousands of people who are
caught by dyspepsia, which is quite as
bad. An octopus hates to let go. So does
dyspepsia. Browns Iron Bitters settles
dyspepsia, and makes it loose its cruel
grip. Mrs. Schmidt and her daughter, of
80 Conway street, Baltimore, were both
cured OF dyspepsia by the use of Browns
Iron Bitters.

IT seems that the proposed Jordan canal,
the plans for which have appeared in the
foreign scientific journals, is not to be, in
any proper sense, a canal, but rather large
inland sea, some three hundred miles long,
with an average of ten TO fifteen miles in
breadth. The waters of the Dead Sea
would be raised from their present level
about thirteen hundred feet, and its area,
of course. be largely increased. The river
Jordan, the Dead Sea, and Lake Tiberias
would all disappear with some square miles
of land, principally on the western side OF
the Jordan valley as now existing, and in
their place would he q vast inland sheet OF
water, fertilizing the neighboring desert
with the rainfall produced by the evapora-
ton from its surface. According to this
plan, therefore, there would be, instead of
4 simple canal, a wide open channel, trav-
crsing Palestine from north to south, navi-
gable in every sense Of the term, with safe
harbors here and there on either side.

AB0RDER FIGHT.
Details Ofa Fight Between Ran'
 cherOs and APaches.

The Socorro (N. NJ Snn publishes an account of the killing of Tarivo, or Big foot" the Apache sub chief, which has not been heretofore made public and which is interesting in the details given. It was about four years ago, when Victoria, the Apache chief, was raiding through New Mexico, that the band approached the ranch Of John Foster, situated on the San Francisco rIyer, near the mouth of White Water creek, in the Mogollon mountains. Just before reaching the camp the band separa ted, Victoria. witL one body, going into camp a few miles away, while band of seven, under Big Foot, pre- pared 10 make an attack upon the ranchmen, who had observed them and were prepared to resist desper ately. The Indians made the attack. and were received so warmly that al the first fire three of them went down and the remainder fled. Foster, who led the fight, thus describes what happened when the ranchmen started out in pursuit:
 Ut was discovered that Little Foot, the sub-chief of the band of seven, with two buck warriors, had received mortal wounds, dying, from indica- tions, suddenly. But where was Big Foot? It was known that he was hit. as he was the first one shot at, and he was observed hopping of apparently badly hurt. We searched the grounds surrounding the battle field for almost mile distant, and al last came upon the chief hId under bunch of brush, in the last throes oi death, battling with broken leg and a fatal shot in the body. tool my knife from my belt (all ranchmeI in those times carried knives of some kind) and scalped him with as mucl pleasure as he would have done ont of us had he been victorious, anC took out of his head his jaw bones One of our party also scalped Littl
 Foot, and with the1r scalps dangling from our rifles we marched back l. . our cabins"
 Asked as to what use he had fo
