probably by the involuntary action OF

it was then too late to revive the uncon-

The sultan Amuses Himself.

At the court of the Adlamite Sultan
there still exist few white noblemen
who hold Office in the seraglio. They
are dwarfs-about FIVE il. --lmber- regu-
lar microscopic creatures. They are en-
ployed as fools and testers and are sub
lected to all kinds Of practical jokes.
One of these consists in placing dwarf
in deep dish of boiled rice. The centre
of the dish contains sort of niche made
of cardboard, in which the dwarf is con-
cealed, and the steaming rice is then
poured on the top and round the sides.
The dish is set before the guests; hut no
sooner have they tasted the first morsel
than there is sudden upheaval of the
mass and out springsa dwarf all drip
ping with rice and perspiration. The un-
expected appearance of the little monster
creates general panic and puts speedy
end to the repast. OF co rise, the poor
dwarf has to pay the penalty of the little
joke, for during the ten or fifteen minu-
tes he spends under the hot rice he un.
dergoes the experience of Turkish bath.

There arrived in Bangor on Monday
night by the American Express, from
GTeenville, one of the largest wildcats,
or bobcats, ever seen in Maine. When
placed upright he stood as high as any
dog in town, and, in length ana general
make up, was far more powerful than q
wolf. In length he measured. from tail
to snout, three feet, while from
hind foot up the leg and to the
fore foot the length was four and
a half feet. The legs were as
large around as the calf Of an erage
man, and the head was net unlike that
of panther In the exact centre of the
forehe d was bullet hole, showing that
the marksman. whoever he was. was a
fellow of nerve and sure shot. Such
an animal as this one was could easily
have pulled down any living thing in our
forest, save bear or porcupine and it
is fortunate for our lumbermen that fel-
lows of his sort are not plenty. The cat

twelve specimens of supposed butter,

which was pure and which was oleomar-
garine. After taking what he wanted he
set the twelve plates in his laboratory.
Next morning the butter had disappear

These two were adulterated and the
others pure. Suspecting mice, he set
out other plates, some containing pure
and some adulterated i'll various de
gress. Again the pure butter was
cleared away, the slightly adulterated
half eaten, and the much adulterated
only nibbled.

neer. The doctor paid no attention.
"Do as l tell you,' said the engineer,

There is one further point, however,
worth notice. for if We have the advan
tage of our great grandfathers in the
matter of mechanical appliances they
certainly were better of in the price Of
labor. The original contract for the
tunnel, made in l7S2, was that it should
be completed III thirty years aud should
cost Il per yard run. For eleven wears
the work was done at this price, but the
French revolution enhanced the cost Of
labor and materials to such an extent
that for thirty years little progress was
made.
For ten years following much pro
gress was made, and then the work
dropped for twenty years more until the
WAGER threatened To drown the mines al
together. Finally the tunnel was com
pleted in 1878, the remaining part cost
ing e22 yard, or more than three times
as much rs the original contract rate. -
