Keninfseences Of Herzegovfna.

There were about twenty-five of us,
and for eight days not one of us ate
anything except boiled mutton. Every
night sheep was killad q fire kindled
inside tent to keep the blaze from the
watchful eyes of the Turk, past whose
stations we were running; and the flesh
of the sheep, before it had been an
hour dead, was cut into humps and
thrown into a cauldron of boiling water.
After three days of this diet I could
stand it no longer, and for the next five
days l rode down the country without
tasting bite of anything. l had q
little rum-and-water, but that was all.
Hunger is the worst on the second day.
On the third day you cease to feel
hunger, and you begin to lose flesh,
but l kept going. Splendid savages
were some of those insurgents; al
though some were perfect gentlemen,
others were magnificent brutes. Peko
Pavlovitch was one of the latter. He
could neither read nor write, stood
about six feet six inches, wore armor on
his body, and although personally most
courteous to me, was the purest savage
l have ever seen in white skin. I was
sitting beside him when a soldier came
with a hag of truce from Moukhtar
Pasha asking for permission to send
victuals to the beleagured fortress of
Govansko. Peko Pavlovitch could not
read, but he looked at the paper while
the contents were being interpreted to
hiQ. He then tore it into fragments,
flung the pieces into the messengers
face, and waving his hand with a
savage expression declared. ~That is
my answer" The messenger went
down stairs. Before lie reached the
landing / heard groan.. The man
was killed. Another specimen of Pekos
mode of warfare which I Witnessed was
an unfortunate Turk, whose back Peko
had scored with his knife and ripped
of three long strips of skin with his
hands. The poor wretch was more
dead than alive. @.

A Nassau Dogs Service.

- AS~s0~s@ A'~9 - A'SA '.SSS
Nassau dogs are the most fearful and
wonderful productions of nature. They
have wistful, hungry look about the
eyes, and an all-gone, thin appearance
about the flank that gives them an air
of feeding on wind an the air in dead
calm. But we have dog here on the
plsee that goes little ahead of any
thing in the dog line I ever saw. He
belongs to the cook, and the boys say
they are never sure whether he is a
snake or q dog, he is so thin. He is a
cur of the currest kind, black and gray,
but an affectionate little rascal, and a
good watch dog, for he barks at night
on the smalles0provocation. His name
is Jack. .siEH
You know down here sponges are az
plenty as apples at home. They wash
dishes with them, and use them for
every imaginable purpose, SO there are
always bits of old sponge lying about.
You might go out in my back yard and
pick up half bushel of them in ten
minutes. Well, Jack eats sponges. OF
course you will laugh at this; but
pledge my solemn word that went
into the yard one day and saw Jack eat
ing sponge, and he seemed to enjoy
it. No doubt hrs idea was to cram him
self full of sponge, then go off some
where and take big drink of water
and thus swell himself out to respect
able well-fed size. I have respected
Jack more ever since.-Cor. Neto Y0rl

Bears.

..... Bears.
Not long since l was riding toward
Cloud Peak, and had gone only three
miles when discovered two enormous
grizzlies down in horseshoe canon. !
left my pony, went to the canon wall
and opened fire on abe enemies. The
bears were 500 yards away. My first
shot wounded one Of the monsters, and
the wounded one Immediately attacked
the other bear. They fought desper-'
atelv for fifteen minutes It was q ter
rible encounter. The wounded bear
was beaten by its antagonist, after
which 1 shot the victor. They were
both ferocious looking animals, and the
two would weigh over 5000 pounds.
Their tusks measured three inches,
claws four inches, feet fourteen inches,
and the bears were twelve feet long.
Leaving the two bears, I walked over
o ridge not more than mile away and
came on to four more, two black and
two silver-tip bears. They did not SEQ
me, and my position was . good one, on
the lee and near nice smooth crag Of
granite. Slipping on pair Of moe
casins was soon on top of the granite
knob, l50 feet above ground. ! opened
fire Immediately. only 200 yards, killed
two at the first shot, and soon had them
rolling down the mountain together.
It was an exciting time; the four
bears made . terrible noise. After see-
ing large eagle swoop down among the
pines, catching grouse. descended
from my rocky knob and ventured upto
the bears. There they all lay in heap,
oil dead and in the gn1ch together.
Those six bears would weigh over Z 600
pounds. ds.-Sdlt La',e Tribune. a-l

Gentle Accomplishment.

#s aksN
How sweetly patient and calm are
gentle manners! Courtesy is often
the finest when negative; when, instead
of seeking to entertain others. we let
them entertain us. 1t is small thing
to be silent, and it is often the kindest
thing we can do for q man to let him
talk. Gentle respectfully puts the shy
est and most timid man at ease and at
his best, and e. do that ID b finer pleas
ure than detailing ones own shotions
and experiences in the most elegant and
happy periods Do not be in hurry.
Emerson says "Hurry is for slaves"
All! the slaves who are bought and sold
in the market-place do not hurry. 1t
is the greedy man who is free to get
and keep all that he can lay his hands
upon, who hurries. Il do not like to
go North, because the men there are
all in such hurry they cannot be civ
H." Southern man once said before
me. I am not sure that finer sense of
the sweet kindliness that is one Of the
springs of gentle manners would not
have softened' this criticism, for the
sake Of the Northern woman, alone
among strangers, who listened to him;
but to candid mind not puffed up with
vainglory the criticism is suggestive.
No doubt the great prosperity of the
North may be partly owing to the push
and energy Necessary to live in il and
developed by the rigor of its arctic
winters; but there is hurry which is
mere clatter and noise. This sort of
hurry never accompanies the great un-
dertakings Of strong men, but it is
characteristic of small and weak nerves.
It is rarely graceful or gracious, and
always robs courtesy OF its finest
charms. Christian Union. 5tT
Mosquitoes and Yellow Fever.
The following propositions, which
rive in a condensed form the chief con-
.c!usions of DIR. Carlos Finlav's work on
yellow fever, deserve consideration !:
Ordinary yellow fever is inoculable by
means Of the bite of the mosquito on
the third, fourth, 6fth and sixth days
of its natural evolution. The disease
cannot be transmitted by the agency OF
the insect before the third day or after
the sixth, no matter what the severity
of the disease. The period of incuba-
tion of experimental inoculation varies
As widely as that OF ordinary yellow
fever. The duration and severity OF
the fever produced BY inoculation by
the mosquito appeared to be proper
tional to the number Of bites and pre-
sumably to the quantity Of matter con-
tanned in thesinsect's fangs. .--Londosa

Murdoch Monday Night.

Mr. James E. Murdoch will appear
in the Opera House next Monday
night, in his exercise of readings and
Rotations. Wherever he goes he is
greeted with the honor due to his
age and fame. The Louisville Com
mercial said of him when he recently
appeared there:
at is in itself an inspiring sight to
see a man of three score and fifteen
years holding large audience spell
bound by the magic of his voice, and
when the words which fall so perfect
ly from his lips are those of the
Scriptures, of the immortal bard of
Avon and of the poets and humorists
of lustrous fame, such an entertain
ment is provided of which, to say the
least, it is good to see and hear. AT
the Masonic Temple Theatre last
evening, James E. Murdoch, the vet
eran actor and reader, gave recital
for the second time within the year
or little more, and the number and
character of his auditors spoke vol
umes for the high esteem in which
he is held by the citizens of Louisville,
for his talents, his worth and the
purity and loftiness of public work.
This will probably be the last OPP
portunity our people will ever have
to see this greatest of elocutionists.
