LION MEETS HIS MATCH.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 13.-A battle be-
tween o lion and an elephant alarmed the
people Of Frankford, and but for the
speedy victory Of the huge beastit is fear
ed that disastrous consequences would
have resulted. The fight occurred m Lo-
wande's barn, where q number Of wild
animals that travel with oBrien's circus
are being wintered by John Gather. On
Saturday the lion broke the bars
Of his cage and soon had his free

the king OF boast started In 10 have royal
feast, and a meek eyed camel was selected
for the principal dish. With one bound
the lion was on the camel's back, aud his
claws sank deep into the flesh. His
huge fangs soon tore hole In the neck
Of the camel, and tho lion was sucking
at Its blood The keeper conceived the
idea OF turning the vicious elephant EN-
press onto the lion. Empress was undis-
mayed at the grow3s OF tho lion. She had
witnessed too many such scenes, beades
she had killed five keepers since she had

add to her laurels. The lion rose as
Empress approached, buth was not quick
enough TO get out Of the way, for with one
powerful blow from her trunk Empress
hurled the king Of boasts against the stable
wall Tho lion made dash at Empress
with wild fury. He leaped upon her hind
quarters, and the elephant trumpeted with
rage and pain as she belt the lions claws
scratching her thick skin, but odds
were against the king OF beasts, for he
was quickly routed from his position al
the point of pitchfork by the keeper, and
the elephant returned just in TINA TO catch
her antagonist on her trunk. She held him
high In the air for q moment and then
hurled him clear across the stable. The
lion was evidently severely hurt, for he
kept 10 still that tho men had little trouble
in lassolng and leading him into anothar
cage. The camels carcass was skinned
yesterday and the meat served to the AMI

Nor is the loss thus sustained direct
only. 1t is also indirect in its detrac-
ton from material results. In proof
thereof, how often do we see able bodied
men engaged in marketing their farm
products with teams so untitled for such
work, that they struggle along with a
load that would afford little more than
exercise for our better class of horses.
Much valuable time is thus lost both on
the farm and on the roads than can lily be

would not long be content to spend half

But our farmers are being rapidly
educated and awakened to the great adj
vantages secured by improving the horse,
the nobest of all animals, and bringing
him up to that standard of development
that means strength, activity. beauty and

Future Land Battles.

Specializing as to what the future land
battle will be like, Lord Wolseley says:
1.-THE battles of the future will be very
different from even those of 1870, and
will bear very little resemblance to those
of Crimean times. One remarkable
change will be the absence of nearly all
that terrific noise which the discharge of
five or six hundred field guns and the roar
of musketry have caused in all great
battles. We shall have, practically, no
smoke to mark the position of the
enemy's batteries and troops in action.
The sound of cannon will be slight, and
will no longer indicate to distant troops
where their comrades are engaged and
the point upon which they should con-
sequeutly march. Our sentres and ad-
vanced posts can no longer alarm the
main body upon the approach of the
enemy by the di,charge of their rifles.
The camp or bivouac will no longer be
disturbed at night by the spluttering fire
of pickets in contact with the enemy.
Different arrangements for giving the
alarm upon the approach of hostile
columns will have to be resorted to. The
main column on the march cannot in
future be warned by the shots of flank
ing parties, of the enemy's proximity,
and battle might possibly be raging
within few miles of it, without that
fact becoming at once apparent"
1t can hardy be eXaggeration to as.
sert that the invention OF a noseless and
smoKeess powder will change the aspect
of future battletields and the conditions
of future war, fully as much as the

satpetre" changed the warfare of pas

Steriiized Air in Surgery.

Mr.. T. S. Tinsley, prominent archi-
tect and inventor of Kansas City, is re-
ported to have discovered method of
producing sterilized air. The value of
the discovery is stated to be that all
surgical operations can be performed by
its use without danger of subsequent
Inflammation. Mr.. Tinsley claims that
the sterilized air will destroy all germs
and microbes which exist in the atmos-
phere. His idea is that the infamma-
ton in wounds is due to the action Of
the microbes, and that ii they are eliml-
mated the wounds will heal rapidly at
the first intention without suppuration.
DR.. HALEY, well-known surgeon of
Kansas City, has become deeply in
terested in the discovery, and is having
constructed an operating room adjoining
his residence, and prominent physicians
there express the belief that the dis
covery will revolutionize the present
way of treating wounds. The first ex-
pertinent, to which leading surgeons OF
the country and members of the press
will be invited, will take place in q
short time Cincinnati Enquirer.

How to Graft.

L. II. Bailey, in his book on apple
culture, gives these directions for graft
ing In May, ju t as the leaves are
pushing out vigorously, saw o the limb
to lie grated where it is an inch or less
in diameter. Trim the stub edges
smooth and split horizontally to depth
of about four inches, not more. When
the scion is prepared ready for setting
it should comprise three buds. The
lower edge is cut wedge-shape, to fit
into the split, and on one part should be
left one of the three buds. When the
scion is set this bud will be deep down
inthe cleft and covered with wax, but,
being nearer the scource of nour shment
than any others, it will be most likely of
all to flourish, and will readily push
through the wax. The scion is set in
the cleft by exercising care that the in
ner surface of its bark matches the inner
surface of the barr on the stub. Wax
the whole over carefully and thoroughly,
leaving no crack exposed. Two rounds
of resin melted with one of beeswaX and
one half of tallow make an excellent
wax. AS soon as melted, pour it into
cold water, and when it cools work it
with the hand until nearly white.
Whenever the wax is handled the hands
should be creased with tallow.- WlScon-
