Interesting account of the year-old
baby who weighs Is pounds. II says:
"The mother, slight little woman,
who weighs, perhaps, 20 pounds more
than her son, tugged away at his royal
highness, and finally managed to scat
him upon a lounge, and the reporter
was given every opportunity for ex-
aiming him. The boy has an unusn-
ally pretty face, large, bright, blue eyes,
and hight hair, which has tendency To
curl. His complexion is fair, ana
his little nose has just enough

are utterly incapable Of sustaining the

great fancy 10 the reporters hat, and
rained sledge hammer blows upon the
crown with his fists until his mother
took it away and gave him TOO sa1-lrone
to play with. The irons weighed six
pounds each and the hoy appeared TO
handle them as easily as an athlete ham
dles pair OF 0pound dumb-beils. He
moves about on the floor with peculiar
hitching motion that is very amusing.
He has IS teeth, and eats, his mother
says, almost everything excepting
pastry and candy. The boy il as bright
as a dollar, very active, considering his
great weight, and WeIl proporti0ned

only ten pounds. AT the end !
of six months his weight had increased |

Having been frequently foiled by
England in her attempts upon Con-
stantinople, Russia. has for some years
been impressed with the idea that the
best way to paralyze British opposition
in that quarter is 90 threaten India from
the direction of the recent Russian ac-
quisitions in Turkestan, on the north
western border OF Afghanistan. Rapid
progress has been made in the practical
application of this idea. Three years

that Is in the hands OF the enemies OF

could easily get as many more, as the
people of the Central American states

The situation at Panama.

PANNMA, April 4.-Gen. Aizpuru
chief of the revolutionists, still holds
Panama, and is organizing govern.
ment with excellent men in the prin'
cipal positions. 1t Is, however, uncer'
tain how long no will be able TO main
tain power, as Buena Ventures forces
are expected to attack him. The 18th
mus is the battle ground for the gov
ornmont, the Revolutionists and the
Anarchists, and peace is probably
yesterday of the action of tho
United States in sending forces
TO the isthmus. 1t has caused much OK
element, as it is unknown here
whether II Is for conquest rprotection
of American interests. The latter is
approved, but the former will encounter
resistance from allparties, who threaten
that II the object is conquest, they will
burn Panama and murder her citizens,
as thoy did at Colon. The situation Is
critical. The distress at Co.
Ion is extreme. Ten thousand
people are homeless and being
provisioned from Panama. A line OF
refugees are constantly arriving here,
Tho losses at Colon will probably reach
$4,C00,0O0 and foreign insurance compa-
MES decline to pay them. 1t wild be
months before business is resumed con-
soquently shippers will be heavy losers.
Failures are, anticipated at &C.

Is in evitable. Panama stands between
two ires. She is liable to attack from
tho latter or occupation by the former.

Lassoing wild Elephants.

As soon as the jungle had been to
some extent chopped and trampled
down, so as TO give clear field for &C
ton, half a dozen tame elephants, with
mahouts and noozers, were, sent ia to
nOoze the wild elephants. The nooz-
ers managed with great skill the throw
ing of stout rope made into loop--as
the cowboy uses his lariat--so as to
catch each elephant in turn by hind
leg. The rope would be made fast at
the other eud TO one of the tame ele-
phants. AS soon as the tame brute
would feel that a catch had been made,
it would start out at Il cool, deliberate
and unconcerned gaitin the direction of

done, dragging behind it the captured
animal, An elephant hauled along
backward by one extended hind leg is
at serious disadvantage. IL can not
claw and hold on 10 the ground with
any great effect. About all il can do is
to below, and that it does energetically
and Wofully. Whenever one made any
great effort at resistance a second tame
elephant followed along, pushing with
his trunk the struggling animal. Then
each beast was tied up, and some Of
them grew quite furious. One little fell
low after being tied up for p hours, was

When Humboldt visited the CITY of
Mexico ne recorded the depth of Lake
IeXcoco at Is feet ard 10 inches. To-
day the greatest depth is 6 feet and 8
inches, and scientific observations show
that the bottom of the lake Is rising at
the rate of one and oDe-haif inches an
nua.ly. Its bottom Is now but 8 feet
below the level of the principal street
OF the capital, and, NJ this rate, unless
the lake is drained, it ia shown that he.
fore many years the City of Mexico
will be permanently under water. The
sewage OF the city is now drained into
the lake, which in summer is not more
than feet lower than the bottom Of tho
main sewers, while in the rainy season
the rise of the water ui the lake causes
the immediate bsckset Of all sewage.
1t is no wonder that NieXico's death
