A Survival Of the FIttest.

While hunting antelopes on the
prairies of Colorado / was the wit
ness of very interesting chase be-
tween an eagle and a jack rabbit.
The various circles and downward
sweeps of the eagles attracted my at
tention, and / resolved to ascertain the
resaon. Iput spur to my horse and sue
ceeded in gaining an elevation from
which good view of the chase could
be had. The rabbit, to all appear
ances, was very much bewildered, and
would run first in one direction and
then another, and sometimes in circles,
its pursuer the eagle, following it's
very turn.
Finally the eagle, as if tired of this
sport, with a vicious downward swoop
and a stroke OF his wing laid the rab-
bit out lifeless on the prairie. At this
moment gave tremendous yell, and
at the same time rode rapidly toward
them, which had the desired effect of
frightening the eagle away, leaving it's
victim in my possession, which turn
ed out to be the only game | bagged
that day.-Forest and Stream.

CURIOUS FACTS ABOUT ICE.

Why 1t FIoats--Why 1t Sometimes
Begins to Form at the Bottom.
Did you ever wonder why it is that
ice, being formed of CONCEALED water,
floats? says the st. Louis Republic.
And why, on some still lakes, it begins
to form at the bottom before it does
on the surface? Scientists explain
these enigmas this wise: Ice is specif-
cally lighter than water just about to
freeze and therefore floats in it. This
is one reason why the formation of
ice usually begins at the surface. An
other is the peculiar law ofexpansiOn.
The general law is, that cold induces
expansion; this law holds good with
water only to certain point. When
water has cooled down to within IA
degrees of freezing it ceases to contract
as before with increase of cold and be-
gins to expand till it freezes.
This expansion causes the colder
portions o@ the water to rise to the
surface. The formation of ground
ice," or "anchor ice" as it is some
times called, is the only exception to
the rule given above. The whole body
of water is at the same time cooled to
below the freezing point, and the sub
stance at the bottom, the stones and
gravel of the river or lake-bed, serve
as point OF congelation or crystaliz-
alton for the water. Ground ice may
be the lowest stratum of the once
completely frozen mass of water, re-
tanned at the bottom by the natural
cohesion to the rough substance of
The river bed, during the thawing and
melting of the ice on the surface; or it
may even be formed under favorable
conditions beneath briskly flowing
water, probably by the action of ed
dies, which draw the surface water
down through the warmer but denser
liquid, thus cooling the rocks at the
bottom, forming base for it's forma-
ton. This remarkable species of ice
usually gathers on clear, cold night,
when the surface of the water is not
frozen.

ROBBING THE sHoPKEEPERS
A Trick That Is Very Often Success
fully Practiced in Paris.

A Trick That Is Very Often Success
fully Practiced In Paris.
The shop front trick is more skillful
than any played off upon the poor
shopkeeper in Paris, says the New
York Herald. A man in the garb of O.
peasant may be seen making his way
alongthe street, carrying with difficulty
q heavy bag upon his head. Just OPP
posite the shop of a linen draper or
milliner he staggers beneath the bur-
den and falls heavily against the shop
window, allowing his bag to crash
through the large plate of glass. The
proprietor, OF course, rushes out and
energetically demands that the dam
age be paid for on the spot. The rus
tic, with equal vehemence, protests
that he cannot and will not pay, and
an alteration ensues, in which the
shopman seems to begetting anything
but the best of it.
At this Juncture there steps out from
the crowd which has collected we'll
dressed man who intervenes in the dis
cussion and asserts that he knows the
peasant and is quite sure that he can
afford to pay. The latter, with many
oaths and much reluctance, gives i'll
before this evidence, and at length pro-
duces grumblingly from his pocket a
Bank of France note for l, 900 francs,
The shopkeeper, overjoyed at the sight
of it, and nothing loath to settle the
business and get rid of the concourse
of people, quickly pockets the note,
gives the man his change after deduct
ing thefull value of the glass, and with
thanks to the stranger, withdraws
from the scene. But on going some
time afterward to exchange the bank
note for gold, he finds that it is bad
one.

Who Knows Whom He

Who Knows Whom He VIII Marry
Young men think they know just
what kind of a woman they will
marry, and they are sure that they
will marry no other. The result is
apt to prove them very much in error
as to what they think they will do
and will not do. They marry-most
men marry some time but two
chances to three they marry q very
different lady from the kind they have
always dilated upon. A young man
who has pertinaciously insisted that
he will only marry a brunette will, in
the end marry blonde. A young
man who has always felt and said
that he would marry only a blonde
is very likely to marry q brunette.
Such things come out very funnily.
A pug nose has been the horror of O.
youthful sprig of fashion, and he has
been heard many times to express his
sentiments on that subject. Five
years after, he is seen proudly escort
ing a pug-nosed wife Another could
never bear q "dumpy" woman. lie,
after all, selects for a wife the latest
little woman he has ever known. A
third likes robust women, and always
has o dislike of the lean-and-lank
order. By and by, the tallest
woman in the town has his
surname, with "Mrs." pretixed to
it. You can tell better about the
weather afterwards than before; so
you can tell better after marriage
than before what kind of woman
was to be your wife.
