broke back whenever it could get a
fair blow. I believe he would have
cleaned out the whole pack without
help, but 1 killed two, and then aid
came from an unexpected quarter. The
alligators, disturbed by the row, were
quick to catch on to the fact that food
was at hand, and they came up by the
dozen. Three or four wolves made for
the shore after bit, but not one reached
it. When the last one had been pulled
down Zeb walled ashore and headed for
camp, which he reached without further
incident. When | came to look him over
found that he had received several bites
on the trunk, and sharp stone had
severely cut his right hind foot.
After that night the sight Of wolf
instantly aroused his ire. / had him in
the town OF Sundella one day year
later, when a native wearing wolf-skin
shoulder cape happened to pass near.
Zeb at once charged him, and seizing the
poor fellow in his trunk flung him clear
over the telegraph wires and on to the
roof of bungalow. The man had leg
broken, and, Of course, had to settle
the damages. After two days of palaver
he named his figures. He wanted sum
equivalent to $25 in American money,
aud his friends thought it fortunate

The Cat i'm Antiquity.

Was the cat, as fireside pet, known
to the ancients2 If It was, was it as the
domestic animal familiar to ourselves, or
was it simply as domesticated savage,
like the monkey or the gazelle2 PROBES
sor Virchow inclines to the latter oDin-
ion. Having examined the mummies of
Egyptian cats, he found they had moth
ing in common with our feline friend.
The cats of antiquity, according to other
archaologists, were slenderer than ours,
and approached the weasel in appear
auce. But Sig. Saglio, the distinguished
Italian scholar who is engaged on the
magnificent Dictionary Of Greek and
Roman Antiquities now in course
of publicatitn n at Paris, under the editor
ship of Daremberg, read the other day
before the Academy of Inscriptions Il
memoir on the subject, in which he holds
a contrary opinion to that of Virchow.
The cat iu ancient times was, he maia-
tains, the identical domestic animal
known to modern Europe. On Etruscan
tombs he has found paintings which rep
resent the cat as regular inmate of the
house of the deceased, one of these pict-
urcs showing us company at dinner,
and the eat toying under the table with
bones of chicken or partridge. Sig. Sag
lio further refers Professor Virchow to
Che British museum, where on two jars
belonging to the fifth century B. c., do
mestlc cats are depicted ina "Scula Mu-
sica." Of these cats one is held by a
string and another stands upright on a
footstool while boy offers it dainty.
There are other pictorial representations,
according to the accomplished Italian
archnologist, which prove that the cat
was cherished in antiquity as one of the
most useful, rs we'll as graceful, domes-
tic animals, inspiring the affection be-
slowed on it by eminent persons of all
times-from Mohammed to Petrarch,
from Montaigne to Hoffman and Dumas.

A House Ely Parasite.

State Entomologist Lintuer, recently
received from Gouverneur lady an in
tercsting parasite on the common house
fly. "It is not uncommon to find half
dozen on single fly" the sender writes.
They are exceedingly small, being no
larger than the puncture in piece of paper
by small-sizcd pin point, yet they are
seen readily because of their light ver-
million color. Their favorite spot is on the
body of the fly underneath the bases OF
the wings. The parasite is mite of the
group known as "harvest mites" bear
ing the scientific name Of Trombidiun
muscarum, and is similar to another species
that attacks flies in Europe. The mite
does not multiply, unfortunately, with
sufficient rapidity to do much toward the
reduction of the number of house flies.
While iufesting the fly it is in the lar
val stage, and only after Leaving it does
it become mature and begin to propagate.
For this rrason it rarely comes under OBJ
servation ard has seldom been recorded
by cntomologists. Another species Of
mite sometimes met with produces its
young upon the house fly with such
rapidity that in 4 few days the body,
head, and limbs become completely cov-
cred with the parasite.
The fact has been spoke of often that
the usual number of flies were not seen
this season. The reason for this would
be interesting, whether an undiscovered
parasite or some new form of disease has
destroyed them.--M'o York Times.

SIGHT OF OF imagination. So many asked
the meaning of that field that young E,
Ellison, who planted it, grew very weary
and thought to paint sign to this effect:
"Thesc sunliowers are to feed chickens.
All other questions answered at one dol
lar each"
The worst Of it was that people were
not satisfied with the information con-
tanned above. They wanted to know
what part of the suntlower he fed to
chickens, and why he did it, and whose
chickens they were, and if Mr.. Field
could not afford to buy chicken feed,
and what effect the sunfower seed had
on chickens. and if they would cure the
pip-.and all manner of questions, per-
tinent, impertiucnt and otherwise. At
times E. Ellison's head whirled round
and he was tempted TO resign his place
or plow up the sunhowers. But he stuck
it out to the end, and now he has va
cant house full of sunaower blooms, and
is the happicst chicken man this side OF
Elysium.

must be bad smelling place until en-
tered Mr.. Fields and found how much
I was mistaken. Of course the keeper
has to do much in the way of cleaning,

Russia's Rich Coal DEPOSITS.

If the calculations of Professor Men
deleieff are to be trusted Russia possesses
the riches coal deposits in the world.
The superficial area of the coal fields in
the Denetz basin alone amounts to about
80, 900 square kilometres. If the capac
ity of these deposits is put at so, 600, OOO
pounds per square kilometrc Zone pound
being about thirty-six averdupois), the
total supply of coal is stated to be equal
to the worlds present consumption for
fifty years. Moreover, this only refer.
to the superficial beds and not to tii'
deeper deposits, which have not yet beer
exploited, but which promises still great
er riches. Times Democrat.

A PEEP INTO A HEN HOUSE.

pudding the hen Of the yellow dog va
riety, the hen who lays and lays and
never goes on strike, is found to be just
as serviceablc as the more aristocratic
eggs of the high caste Brahmins and
Cochins, which have come all the way
from India and China to show the Amer
ican chicken what is what in the poultry
line. E. Ellison encourages both aud
you can take your choice of the cultured
blue blood Gagged in cxclusiveness, each
kind by itself, or in the happier but more
plebian fowl who have the run of the
chicken yard and even do some of their
scratching for worms nd chasing OF
grasshoppers on the public highway.
Some of the big boarding houses for
chickens were supposed to be rat proof.
Such was the intention of the builder,
but like all men III this world of fsllibil-
ity he forgot to put his wire screens in
the one place needed, and the rats got in
and made trouble in the chicken family.
There were wishhones-very tender and
little ones-which did not get to the
house of Field. For time the chicken
guardian was at his wits end what to do,
but at last he bought few lively little
fox terriers, and their bright eyes had
not been long about the place when tho
plague of rats was no more. Rats do not
seem to flourish on the same soil as fox
terriers.

blossoms which it was not thought worth
while to house found many store of
fowl delight. Next year when the fame
of this sunfiower farm has gone abroad
we may expect to hear OF sunhower
farms throughout the country, and the
chickens of Thanksgiving, 1891, will
wear II gloss and bear flavor such as
chickens never wore before.
"Does Mr.. Field raise any chickens
for market?" asked.
mo" said E. Ellison. "This is not q
commercial enterprise in any kind. Or
course if I have more eggs or chickens
than are wanted at home am privileged
to sell them, but am not trying to run
opposition to the men of Hammonton or
any other market raisers."
The first setting of eggs usually takes
place about the first OF January, and
there arc young chickens on the Fieldian
tables at time when the average man
takes his from the icebox or goes with
out. A little box, which looks much
like the market gardeners hotbed, but
which has lamp and furnace within to
temper the chills of winter to the new
born chick, is the place where he spends
his infancy at time when chicks are
supposed to be sold by the dozen in the
original packages. There is slide in
front, so that on warm, sunshiny days
the infant may stroll little ways abroad
and taste the fresh air of Westchester,
but for the most part he prefers the So
cicty of the Droodcr which follows Dame
Natures methods and warns his infant
back instead of his infant tocs.-NeU

1t is Il grand estate that Cyrus w.

after leaving Broadway and never get
off his property. The homes of Mr.. Field
and of his son and married daughter lie
on the top of commanding hill about
mile and half above the Hudson and
back Of the pretty little village of Dobbs
Ferry.
When you have climbed the long hills
on which stands the noble mansion of the
great promoter and the villas of DR..
Lindsay, his son-in-law, and the younger
Field, his son, you come to an abrupt
ravine. Behind this is the espring house,
containing liquid crystal of great
worth, and the conservatories, wheru
hothouse grapes and rare flowers grow

chickens, suufowers and malaria, and of

All summer long passers on the Saw

excamations of wonder and delight,

wonderful sight, this acre of green and

1t blends the perfume rare and Sool
Of spicy pine and hickory wood;
And with voice as gay as rhyme
1t PIRATES OF siftei mint and thyme,
Oh scent the wind among the Sheaves-
'Tis all myth that autumn grieves!
'Tis all a myth that autamn grieves-
Behold tho wondroas web she weaveS!
By viewless hands her thread is spun
or evening vapors shyiy won.
Across the grass from side to side
A myriad unseen shuttles glide
T, roughout the night, till Oh the height
Aurora leads the haggard light.
Behold the wcndrous web she weaves,
'Tis all a myt that autumn grieves!

coffin was being lowered they played
the favorite waltz of their late lamentea
admirer,
