ABOUT OSTRlCHES.
Their Peculiar Gait, Which Has Been
Adopted by San Francisco Bellies.

Their Peculiar Gait, Which Has Been
Adopted by San Francisco Bellies.
The sight of dog is sufficient to
frighten an ostrich badly. At such
vision if permitted, the ostriches in the
corrals would Immediately be speeding
over the sandy plain, through a waste
of tall, wild sundowers, at a gait which
would astonish horse trainer. DIR.
Sketchley has three dogs on his farm,
but they are all kept behind the build
ings out of sight of the ostriches.
When keeper approaches them to
annoy them, they emit a Kissing sound
like goose, and try to bite the in
truder. They have no strength in
their bills, however, and are harmless
unless they get chance to kick. IN
like the emu, which is exhibited often as
an African ostrich, they have but one toe
on each foot. This is terrible weapon.
The bird kicks forward. The terrible
force is shown in the exploit of one
bird, which kicked stout board on the
side of its corral, and broke it in two
at one blow. The toe is pointed, and
will cut like knife. The bird which
was killed at one kick had its breast
laid open with an ugly wound. OF the
young birds all are perfectly shaped ex-
cept one, which has club-foot, and
which walks on the back of the dubbed
foot, the toe turning up. The gait of
even this bird is elastic. All the birds
walk precisely after the fashion adopted
by many young ladies in San Francisco
of late, whose gait may, therefore,
perhaps, be correctly described in the
future as the ''ostrich walk 1t is as
if the birds stepped on hot gridirons.
The feet are taken briskly up and
raised high, and the body and head
oscillate. This style was learned in
South Africa and not in San Francisco,
and is as old as the race of desert
birds. ."-A'heim (Cal.) Letter.

A GREAT PROJECT.
The Proposed India-European Overland
Telegraph.

The Proposed India-Buropean Overland
A project is on foot for an overland
telegraph from India to Europe through
Central Asia. An important feature of
the project is found in the fact that it
is intended to combine commercial with
such strategic points as may be deemed
necessary in its construction. Charles
E. Pitman, Chief Superintendent of
Telegraphs in India, in pamphlet on
the subject, says that the proposal is
for an extension Of the Indian telegraph
lines from Chaman, seventy-seven miles
east of Candahar and about sixty-three
miles west of Quetta, via Candahar and
Herat to Mesched, near the Persian
frontier. Persia has already a telegraph
line from Teheran to Mesched, which
is to be extended to Sarakhs, place
which has already been put into tele-
graphic communication with Merv and
the Caspian by Russia. If the Ameer
could be induced to construct line
through Afghanistan and guard it, there
would be no physical difficulties of any
Importance between Quetta and Herat.
The total length of the line required is
a little over six hundred miles viz. !:
about four hundred miles from Chaman
via Herat to Mesched. The line be-
tween Mesched and Teheran would pro-
vide complete land line between En-
gland and India. The connection with
the Russian system at Sarakhs via As
kabad. Baku and Tiflis would give an
alternative route. Turkey has a line
which runs from Constantinople via
Diabekir and meets the Persian line
westward from Teheran. The construc-
ton of this system, it is asserted by the
Manchester Guardian, would operate to
lower the Indian cable charges and
prove of great advantage in the COM
mercial exploitation of Asia Minor. -

why Montana Cooks win Not Dare to Go
on Sprees.
One of the principal reasons that
hotel keepers, restaurant men and
others have always given for employ
ing Chinese labor instead of that
of white men, has been that the
Chinese could be depended upon, while
the white help, after working a week
or SO, would get drunk and leave their
employers in the lurch 1t is not thus
in the town of Anaconda, Mon. The
Cinnamon have all been run out of that
town, and they have found way to
make white men fill the places accepta-
bly,. The manager of one of the
largest restaurants in Anaconda states
that since all the Cinnamon have been
fired the cooks in his place have
been waited on by the knights of
Labor and notified that, in the event
of their getting drunk or failing to cook
the meals ON time or in proper shape,
they viii be tarred and feathered and
driven out of town, and if their success
sors neglect their work a more severe
example will be made of them. The
Knights of Labor up in that section
evidently understand the anti-coolie
question better than the so-called agi-
tators of Tacoma. Portland OregoBiG,s.

BALrIMonn 40 OCEAN orrr.
The Projected Eastern shore Rail-
road 10 Salisbury.

BALTIMORE, Aug. l2.--The directors of
the proposed Baltimore n Eastern Shore
railroad met yesterday at Barnum's Hotel
and authorized the executive committee
to go ahead and secure the right of way
from Salisbury to the bay shore in Talbot
county. This rnnte takes in the towns Of
Salisbury, Vienna, Preston, Easton, Royal
Oak, st. Michael'a and others of smaller
size. The engineer, w. II Eiohelberper,
submitted drawings showing tho details
of the route and its advantages to the
counties and Baltimore over the present
system of Peninsula roads.
AT Salisbury the new road will make
connection with the Wicomieo a. POGO
moke railroad, which runs from that point
to Ocean City, n distance of 80 miles.
From Salisbury to Easton by the new
road the distance will be 80 miles, from
Easton to the bay shore Is miles, and
from there across the bay 10 Bay Ridge l2
miles. At Bay Ridge the tracks of the
Bay Ridge railroad will be used TO An
napolis, at which place connection will be
made with either the Annapolis Short
Line or the Annapolis Il Elkridge railroad
to Baltimore.
The number of miles Of railroad to be
built is So, being the distance from Sails.
bury to the bay shore, at which point
the trains will be transferred by steamer
across the bay. II is estimated TINT the
total cost of building and equipping the
rond will be about a million dollars. The
city of Baltimore will no asked to indorse
$500, 900 of the bonds, and Wioomico,
Dorchester, Talbot and Caroline each
$50, 900, the bonds to bear three per
cent interest. BY the new road the trip
from Baltimore to st. Michaels will be
made in 2 hoara. 10 Easton in q, to
Salisbury in 81, and to Ocean City in A
hours.
From reI,orh TO the meeting it ap-
peared that the total amount of merchan-
disc purchased in Baltimore and Phila-
delphia last year by towns along the line
between Preston ond Ocean City amounted
to $2,963, 900, of 'ch ~, $500 was
bought in Philadelp.a 4.
1t is urged that the new road would
bring all this business to Baltimore, in
addition to the large quantities of fruits,
vegetables, grain, berries, oysters, &c,
which are now shipped TO northern mar
kets. Another point made in favor Of
the new road is that 1t will give Baltimore
and Washington seaside resort which
could be developed by quick oommuni-
cation into thriving place. The direc-
tors present at the meeting were Presi-
dent Seth of Talbot, John e. Hurst,
William II. Jones and Hiram G.. Dudley
of Baltimore, z. Brinsfeld of Dorchester,
james H. Douglass of Caroline and Sena-
tor Tunis of Talbot.
