what 1t Costa to Murder in Tibet.

who had been invited from all the

mounted trees and )ther points of van
tage and waited, armed with spears y
feet to IS feet in length, for the advent
of the tiger.
During the night he appeared and
entered the incloslre of nets through
the opening left TO. him. After invok-

by one who was believed to be under
i inspiration, the watchers descended

MATCHES IN NORWAY.
They Are Made With Great Secrecy and
Are Patented.


The Norwegian manufacturers of
matches are very jealous of the secrets
of producing their articles, and it is
with the utmost reluctance that they
can be prevailed upon to disclose any OF
the details, especially TO Americans, as
the Norwegians say that after having
gained a lucrative market for their
matches in this country, they were sud-
denly shut out about five years ago by
the tariff on the packing (boxes) OF the
matches. With the exception of few
insignificant trial shipments in 1886,
Norway has since then not exported
any matches to the United States, but
has, in competition with Sweden and
Germany. had regular outlet for her
matches in India, Australia and China.
Matches are made in Norway of the
wood of the asp, or poplar tree, and
with machinery invented in Sweden and
and patented there as well as in this
country. The composition of the differ
ent matches can not be given; their
shape is the regular Swedish one, about
two and a-half inches long, all neatly
packed in fiat wooden boxes, which are
now made by machinery. The cost OF
manufacturing is point on which the
manufacturers are very reticent. The
selling prices are quoted at about lid
twenty-five cents) a gross for phospho-
rus matches and up b Is Cd thirty
cents) per gross for safety matches.
