The thurman and His Food.

The Burman is a rather peculiar feeder,
not being very nice in bis selection or
preparation Of food He is not however,
so varied "A caterer nor does he take in
such a large selection, as his near relation
the Chnaman. The Burman draws the
line at rats and mice, which delicacies
form no portion Of his daily fare. He IS
forbidden by his religion TO shed the blood
of any animal for food purposes alone,
although he may and does catch fish, and
eats them. His conscience finds a salve
in the fact that after the fish are caught
they are left to die; he will not bleed
them, although he may often give them a
sly knock on the head TO accelerate their
dccease. He may keep cattle, hogs,
chickens, etc, and, being Of kind and
humane disposition, he feeds them well,

The most intensely fascinating and by
far the most dangerous way Of hunting
the Bengal tigers is the way most of the
natives do it. They collect in throngs Of
hundreds and 20 90 the woods, with half
bred bull and terrier dogs. rifles Of 40
caliber and innumcrable spears and drive
the tigers out Of their juugles. The vicious
d0gs go i'm and hound them and snarl and
howl thrcateningly. The tigers are grad
ually driven from point to point by the
bowling dogs and shrickug natives, and
are finally worked into a gigantic and
strong netting nine or ten feet high and
with interstices seven or eight inches
square. Then the chettics as these queer
natives are called, range themselves along
the sides, and when the tigers lunge at
them they are met at every point by
cleaning spears. Such bowling and
snarliug, combined with the shouts Of the
natives sounds ike the wailng Of the
damned The native women are on hand,
too, and lend their aid, and when the
government officers join in the European
ladies are perched conveniently in trees,

FIXING FREIGHT RATES
A Railroad Fight Imminent.

CHICAGO, Jan. 10.-An importantmect
ing of general freight agents of the West
crn Railroad Freight association opened
at Commissioner Faithoon's office this
morning for the purpose of considering
the possibility of keeping out the reduced
grain rates from its territory. Prior to
assembling a number of rumors and re
ports were discussed by the delegates, 1t
is said that if the Burlington should carry
out its announced policy of putting the
Is cents grain rate into effect at Council
Bluffs. IL move which would principally
affect the Rock Island and Chicago and
Northwestern. The latter lines may
make a reduction in the rates from the
Missouri river on all classes of freight.
Both the Rock Island and the Northwest
crn have large quantities of corn in west
crn Iowa which they want to bring to
market ut n fair rate. while the Burling-
ton has about cleared up its corn terri
tory. A prominent railroad man says
that the two lines in question do not pro-
pose to see their revenues depleted by the
Burlington without retaliation, and 1t is
thought that this threat may put an end
to the talk of a reduced grain rate. The
whole matter will be considered in all its
bearings ut tOday's meeting.

are attracting general interest and the
town is filled with farmers and residents
Of the country for miles around. Several
days will probably be occupied in getting

wealthy Omaha banker. Should she be
acquitted as she expects to be, she will
go to New York and enter a trimming
school with the intention of becoming a
professional nurse. Judge Bland is pre-
siding over the trial. Over half a dozen
states have been ransackcd for evidence
regarding the good character of the ac-
cused and the dispositions in this particu-
lar make quite u formidable pile.
