CHANGED TO A TIGER.
A Strange. Weird Tale Related by a Oh
nese Traveller.


A traveller from the wilds of Kwan-
gsi has told us the following weird
story: A natives wife was taken very
ill, and before she died she told her
husband with whom she had lived on
the best of terms, bearing him one SOM:
II have secret to contide to you,
which mover told before for your sake
and the child's. When | die do not
nail up my coffin, but leave it for a
time out on the mountain. Have two
live fowls ready in the house, for after
have been dead one hundred days l
will return to the realm of living men
for time and come back to our home
Fear not, but if l make toward the
child offer me the two fowls and say
that you yourself will send the infant,
and that l need not be anxious; that
between the dead and the living a gulf
is fixed, and 1should rest among the de-
parted and not come back to trouble
the child. will look at you fxedly
for spell, take the fowls. strangle
them and begone, never to return. My
body will not lie down again in its
coffin, but will be transformed into n
living tiger, and, if hereafter you come
out to the place and see the clothing
lying by the coffin, you will know that
my words have come true" Holding
her husbands hand she expired. Tho
ghost appeared at due date, did as the
living wife had foretold and disap-
peared in tho jungle, and when the
man visited the coffin some days after
he found the cast-off grave clothes and
wept when no thought OF their former
happy life together and her strange
fate. While drinking his tears he saw
tigress stalk from the jungle and he
knew it was his wife transformed into
new existence. Gently he stroked
it's striped back, and with q melap-

WHAT is COURAGE?
Most Men Are Brave More from Prid'
Than from Pluck.

Most Men Are Brave More from Pride
Than from Pluck.
Tho one first, best, highest quality
that we recognize inman is moral cour-
age. Physical courage may be mat
ter of physical condition, and is COM
mon to animals. The bravest animal
only fights when it is hungry or called
upon to protect its young. or to defend
itself, or in the mating season. There
never WAS man born OF woman brave
enough to fight black cat in a dark
room voluntarily, with no one to have
knowledge of the encounter or to look
on and applaud. Moral courage is the
growth of principle; physical courage
is the result OF pride.
The best traitor at least one OF the
best traits-of the human character is
pride; it is the synonym OF thousand
virtues. A proud man will go OPEN
eyed to deliberate death, no other ami
NAL that lives will willingly encounter
destruction. The dude is hero on the
battlefield because he is dude. The
man who is proud, well born and moves
in good society, who is ambitious of
the esteem of men, the love of women,
the honors of life, will expose himself
at the head OF fighting squadrons, on
decks where bursting shells are hurt
ling, ard on the field OF honor, mid
conaagratlons and storms to do a duty
that will win applause. Francisco

phalt and Cedar Blocks.
For paving streets, India rubber
threatens to enter into competition with
asphalt. This new pavement is the
invention of Herr Busse. of Linden,
Prussia, who has introduced it in Ham
over. He used it first in the summer
of 1887 for paving the Goethe Bridge.
which has a surface of about 1,OOO
square meters. or 10,764 square feet.
The new pavement, it is stated, proved
SO satisfactory that / 800 square meters

riage-way in the city were paved with
it last summer. The Berlin corpor-
alton, being favorably impressed with
the new pavement, has had IA large area
paved with India rubber as an expert
ment. and the magistracy of Hamburg
is likewise trying the pavement. 1t is
asserted that the new pavement COM
bines the elasticity of India rubber
with the resistance of granite. 1t is
said to be perfectly noiseless, and I'M
affected either by heat or cold. 1t IL

TRUE HAPPINESS.
1t Depends More on Attachments Than 1t
Does on Possessions.

Does on Possessions.
Possessions are not so valuable as
attachments; yet they are more gen.
orally desired. Possessions are what
come to a man. Attachments are what
man comes to. A man may inherit
possessions; but his attainments are of
his own securing. Possessions are
quite likely to prove hindrance to a
mans progress; but man can never
have attainments without making prog
ress in spite of hindrances. Yet how
many there are who crave possessions,
while they do not crave attainments.
A man may make attainments even
though he has possessions; but he will
be an exception to the general rule if
he docs SO. In recent biographical
sketch of q man who had ample pos
sessions, both pecuniary and intel
lectual, yet who died without making
his mark in the world, the writer says
of him: "Those who knew him best
will, think, agree with me in pro-
nounciEg him a remarkable man; al
though it is difficult to point to any
thing that he accomplished which would
justify the epithet. This lack of &C
complished deeds may in part be ex-
planned by the circumstances of his
life, He was the only son of parents
enjoying pecuniary ease. and, as he
never married, he lacked that potent
stimulus to effort - necessity" He
was, in fact, a man of possessions rather
than of attachments; and his posses
sions stood in the way of his attain
ments. And he was q typical man SO
far. If man has no possessions. let
him understand that he can have at
tainments, which are far better. If he
has possessions. let him feel that he
ought to have attachments; and that no
must secure them in spite OF the sad
hindrance Of his possessions. 5.

Velocity of Elevators.

Few persons have any idea of the
speed of an elevator. An ordinary
guess wouldn't probably come within
half q mile d minute of being right.
Some elevators run as slowly as eighty
feet IA minute. You always ask the con-
ductor about elevators of this kind. and
he tells you apologetically that the old
thing is worn out, and that they're
soon going to got in IL new one that
will take the cake. The average speed
of elevators is about 225 feet a minute.
This includes ordinary stoppages. The
elevators in the Equitable building
have a run of 1856 feet from basement
to top of building. and it takes twenty
seconds to make that run without
stops. In day of nine hours these
elevators run over ten miles. The Gle
vators in the Western Union Telegraph
Building and in Aldrich court are ex.
ceedingly lively. They have developed
speed of 500 feet minute. That is
going pretty fast. A person with a
weak stomach would BIZ unwise to ride
down in an elevator making that speed.
1t would upset his calculation. N. Y.
