born recently in Indiana. The parents
OF this curious freak OF nature arc Mr..

and this is the mothers second child the

abnormal about its development. Your

The Man Eater

Nearly all man-eating tigers are old

they are very cunning; will lie in wait
near the village tracks; thay tknow the
hibits of the village population as mint

they take up their quarters near q Jungle

the role OF man eater peculiarly easv

men vending their way to the weekly
bazaar go forth, indeed, in q string, ali
chattering, laughing, and laden with
the produce of their little garden patch
or small holding for sale or barter. At
the bazaar, however, some dispose of
their wares more quickly than others.
some have purchases to nuke, over which
deal of chaiiering is indispensable. So
1T is that a few of the poor things find the
swift twilight suddenly descend upon
them when they are weary danger
Gus mile or two from home. Then the.
cruel whiskered robber is OH the watch.
The hushcd, airrighted women hurry on ::
their hearts thudding with trcpidation,
and as they hang on TO each others skirts
they cast uneasy, startled glances into
every bush, aid start at every move in the
tall, feathery, swaying grass. DIGGING
every footstcp, watching every movement,
the silent, hungry man eater is crawling
swiftly and noiselcssly alongside the path.
1t is marvellous with what CELEBRITY and,
absolute silence such huge animal can
glide through close jungle.
a basket gets overturned, perhaps. A,
thorn enters the foot. The wretchcd
loiterer must perforce linger Il moment to
pick up her little scattered purchases, ed

thorn from her foot. Then with n swift.
silent bound-for the man eater never be-
trays his presence with roar-the fierce
animal makes his awful onslaught on the
tcrror-stricken, hapless victim, and next
morning few scattered crunched, and

the ghastly tragedy that has been enacted.
There is mourning in some lowly hut.
A deeper dread settles on the hamlet.
But the daily routine must go on, the
daily wants must be supplied. The
apathetic fatalistic doctrine resumes its
sway, and so the tale is repeated. Ihavc

Strange Things in ALASKA.

"lhere are so many strange things in
Alaska" says the discovercr of the Muir
glacier, "tlat have not yet come to the
knowledge of the public that one who
has seen them hesitatcs where to begin.
Elephant remains are found all over the
great valley of the Yukon. AS q matter
of fact, they are found everywhere
throughout the great western siopc of
Alaska. Dana and Sir Charles Lylc
startled the world by announcing that
hairy frozen elephants were found
wedged among the Siberian icebergs.
But scarcely anybody knows that
throughout Alaska are the remains OF
countless thousands of mastodons. You
can dig them out and find them en- the
surface everywhere. I saw hundreds of
them, possibly, on my last trip, and am
now enXiously trying to get up there to
complete my investigations So thick
are the elephant remains that the native
indians, on finding them buried partially
Ill the ground, decided that there were
some kind of great mole that burrows in
the soil. This is the story given me. I
collected Il lot of remains. The collect
ing of elephant tusks every summer is n
regular business in Siberia, Just over
i5ehring Sea. We have just as many of
them OH the Alaska side as they ever had
IN Siberia. Ages ago great herds of clc-
plants roamcd over these shores. Per-
haps they existed down to comparative

During the six months of this year 1873
railroad lines were laid in thirty-onc
States and Territories, aggrcgating 1922
miles Of track. Mississippi heads the list
with III miles laid, while the minimum
mileage is in Maryland, six miles being
constructed in that State. Eight miles
were laid in Illinois, on one line. During
the last half of the year it is probable that
some of the Northern States, including
Illinois, will add considerable mileage.
The tendency in the last two years has
