During the recent stay of the Due dor
leans in India he visited Lord Dutferin at
Calcutta, and grand tiger hunt was organ
iZed which lasted six weeks and ranged over
100 miles of country. The duke shot eight
tigers One incident he relates as follows:
1.-TWO cubs of q tigress had been shot, and
the mother hemmed in by q line of elephants.
There was an idea that she was crouching in
a small patch of jungle behind tree on the
bank of small stream, but none of our cle-
plants could be got anywhere near it, After
some time my elephant, being pluckier than
the others, was induced to move forward
and push the tree down. While thus
engaged the tigress sproug out from
beside it with roar and a tremendous leap
right to the top of my howdah, smashing in
the front of it-breaktng my gun with one
blow of her paw and exploding the right
barrel before had time to fire. This is the
gun" producing q double barrcled rifle
broken in two pieces just below the barrels,
the trigger guards and metal plates wrenchcd
off ana twisted by the force OF the blow, and
with one barrel discharged the other still ut
half-cock.
Fortunately for me, continued the prince,
"she then tnmblcd backward, possibly
startled by the explosion, aud made off for
the Jungle. My elephant, mad with fright,
bOlted in the opposite direction, and for q
considerable distance nothing would stop
her. When at length we got back to the
others we found the whole line of elephants
80 demoral2eu that we had 10 give up
the SPORT for tile day and return to the camp.
Next morning we Curnered our game III
nearly the same spot, and l had the good
luck to bring her down Just as she was cross
ing the river"
"What became of the mahout when the
tigress lcaped on the elephant ~ was asked
"Oh, he managed to alip around in some
extraordinary way under the elephants
ears, and was unhurt,, but lost his head
dress"

As it is against the rules for the Indians to

should better consult Agent Mclaughlin
She acted upon the suggestion. and Me

Filling a Long Felt Want,

Some day or other every reporter
will carry around phonoGraph, and
when he interviews man the latter
words will be taken down with an ac-
curacy admitting of 20 dispute. Theu
when the Interviewed gentleman
comes around in the morning like vol
oanic eruption to explain that his lam
}guage was distorted, and all that sort
of thing, the reporter can quietly pull
the phonograph with one hand and
gun with the other, and ask him what
he is going to do about it. When this
scheme can be successfully operated a
long felt want will be filled. As it is
at present. when man gets into trou~
HE because of his remarks being faith
fully printed he at once swears that
the reporter mixed up his words with
an egg beaten and run them III. In
such manner the guileleSs newspaper
man frequently gains reputation for
lying, which he does not deserve.

CAUSED BY A WASIIOUT.
FrIShtful Accident to Crowded P&sSenXer Train
In virginia.,


In Virginia.
IYNCHLUEG, Va. July "A fearful acct
dent, by which mauy lives We're lost and Il
large number of people injured, occurred on
the Norfolk Il Western railroad early this
morning, one mile west of FlaxtOn's switch
and thirty one miles west of this city. Rain
had been falling almost continuously and
very heavily for tWenty-tOur hours, swelling
tho mountain streams greatly beyond their
normal state. Several trains had passed
over the road during the night and it was
thought that the line ives safe for traffic,
nOtwith>lan ding the rams, and that no dan
ger need he unprecedented. At the place OF
the accident, however, the water had under
mined the rOadbed and caused Il waShout
about eighty feet long and fifty feet wide.
The wafer at this point was eight to ten feet
deep Into this guIch the engine went, while
running at The rate of thirty miles an hour,
carrying with it the tender and eight cars.
AS the engine struck the bottom the rushing
of the water into the locomotive exploded
the boiler. This fLct greatly augmented
the horror of Tie catastrophe. Debris was
thrown in every direction by the force of the
explosion, iniuring some of those on the
train by the flying fragments and scattering
tirebrands which ignited the wood work of
the coaches The flames spread and de
stroyed large amount of mail and express
matter, besides driving CONSERVATION to the
already terror stricken passengers 1t is
supposed that some OF the passengers We're
unable to exlricate themselves from tie
wreck and were consumed in the flames, but
it is difficult TO get accurate information.
The most reliable estimate of the number OF
persons killed places it at between twenty
five and thirty. The number Of wounded
will be far i'll excess of the number killed.
Thirty of the wounded have neen taken to
Roanoke, thirty to Bufordsville and fifty to
Liberty
