lation, decided by the last census, is near

we should all be proud of. Not only are
we gaining in numbers, but there is also a
general advancement of the different
interests. More particularly Is this no.
ticed in the mercantile line, and now it is
no longer necessary to go east of the Mis-
souri, River for goods of any kind Boots

has done much to bring about this good
result. Kirkendall, Jones & Co. manufac-

Novel Bird Story.

When Mr.. Andrew Young returned
from Alaska last fall he went out to his
ranch on Young's river to dig his po-
tatoes, says the Astoria, Ore, Express.
Passing hollow tree he noticed sever
al bushels already gathered. He looked
around the patch, he saw no signs Of
anyone having disturbed the ground
and TO solve the mystery watched the
tree. He was soon rewarded by seeing
a flock of bluejays alight on the tree,
and each bird had potato in its bill,
which was dropped into an opening in
limb and passed on down to the
ground. He procured sacks, and SC
fast as one was filed another was put
at the place. and in this way the birds
harvested fifty bushel of potatoes for
him from various patches around the
country.

TIGER HUNTING FOR SPORT.
In the wynasd 1t Is Accompanied by
Much Excitement.

Much Excitement.
Among the hill tribes OF the Wynaad
In India there is novel method of net
ting and destroying tigers which par
takes somewhat OF the character OF a
religious festival. and which is attended
with much excitement and some dan
ger. Quite recently. reports Madras
paper, there was such an exhibition at
place called Kuntichadi. 1t was de-
termined by the inhabitants Of the
neighborhood to get rid OF an immense
tiger that had destroyed several head
OF cattle. the carcass OF one of which
was traced into the midst of neighbor-
ing piece Of jungle on the slope OF
hill, about mile and half from the
hamlet. Along the lower sides of this
Jungle line was cleared, and nets
made of coir rope, were set upon posts,
about eight feet apart, while above en-
entrance was left for the tiger. At
who had been invited from all the
neighboring parts to join in the sport
mounted trees and other points of van
tage and waited, armed with spears IL
feet to IS feet in length, for the advent
Of the tiger.
During the night he appeared and
entered the inclosure of nets through
the opening left for him. After invols-
ing divine assistance, and encouraged
by one who was believed to be under
inspiration, the watchers descended
from their posts, and with yells and
shouts drove their victim into the mid
die of tho inclosuro, when they stopped
the entrance with more posts and rope
netting. The men remained around
the jungle all night, lighting fires to
prevent any attempt at escape and at
noon the following day. after more cere-
mony and much feasting, the whole
country turned out in holiday attire to
witness the work of destruction. The
tiger. which was fine brute measur-
ing about ten feet, was then reused by
stones and sticks, and made several
furious rushes at its tormentors, only
to be foiled by the net
1t was magnificent sight to see it
spring forward in all its ferocity and
with mighty roar dash itself against
the net After several charges how
ever, it got disheartened and retired to
the middle of the inclosure, from which
nothing could induce it to move. The
circle of rope net was then drawn closer
around it until the tiger could be
reached with spear. 1t made one
more charge and, after demolishing
several spear handles, was pierced be-
low the neck and fell dead. The skin
was retained by the head man of the
hamlet as trophy of the event. This
manner of sport is said to be courted
with religious fervor and to propitiate
the deity.

NEW AND ORIGINAL HEADL1NEs
The Startling Words Used by sixty-One Tri-
State Papers.

State Papers.
1t is on occasions like the Fourth of July
that the readers of newspapers expect to see
blazing, flaring, and booming headlines to
the articles which chronicle the events pc
culiar to that day. The more attractive
and startling the headline, the more likely
is the subscriber to give his attention to
the article following. Editors of papers
are aware of this fact and never miss an op-
portunity to display their powers of origi-
mating new and catching lines for the gaze
of the public
1t was with q view of discovering how
many original ideas there were in 81 editors
of as many papers in Pennsylvania, Ohio
and West Virginia, that a search through
the columns of their papers was made last
night. Each publication contained an ar
ticle relative to the events to take place
yesterday, and the original ideas as found
were classed as fellows:
'Day We Celebrate, a." % papers.
Independence Day." Il papers.
"The Glorious FOURTH IA papers.
Original headlines seven papers.
There were published in the United States
on the same day the above papers were
issued at least 13, 164 papers. If the same
proportion of original ideas were repre-
sented in the entire list, the result would
have been:
"Day We Celebrate" )" 8, ,OO2 papers.
"Independence Day." 1885 papers.
"The Glorious Fourth" 3029 papers.

People Crowded on the Bridge Afraid II
= Was Going to Fall.
At the park only few mishaps occurred,
which is good, considering the number OF
people present during the day. The list
follows:
SH1PToN-Mrs John Shipton, of the South
side, fell and broke her leg in jumping over
gully.
WILLIAMs-George Williams, a 1oyear-old
boy, was pushed over an embankment and
broke his arm.
About o'clock in the afternoon what
might have been panic was caused on the
new bridge. The rain had started large
number home, while crowds were still ar
irving. The consequence was a mass of
people pushing and crowding on the bridge
In the midst of the press half-intoxicated
individual raised the cry that the bridge was
sinking Women and children shrieked,
and men shouted and for moment there
was q terrible struggle. The police and
some cool headed men, however, shouted
that the bridge was all right which, coupled
with the fact that many were held so tight
by the crowd that they could not move, en-
abled order to be restored. Some women
and children were slightly bruised in the
crush, but none were badly hurt.

was very informal affair and

Band furnished the music in the morning
and the Select knights in the afternoon.
The new park was visited by hundreds of
people who spent the day listening to the
delightful music furnished by the bands.
The new park promises to be quite favorite
resort. In the evening a nice display of
fireworks took place.
Speeches were made during the day by W.
T. Taggart, George w. Hackett, Coroner
Mcdowell. H. P. Ford, Councilman Nc
Clure, Gamble Weir, DIR. Irwin and num-
Der of other prominent citizens constituted
a committee to look after the welfare and

A PATRIOTIC INNOVATION.
New Lisbon Awalxens to the knowledge
That There Is a Fourth.

New Lisbon Awakens to the knowledge
That There Is Fourth
The staid, dignifed town of New Lisbon
hardly knew itself on the Fourth of July.
For some years past, in fact as far back as
the younger generation can remember,
Fourth of July has been drug on the mar
ket in that little town, and observed in a
Covenanter sort of way, with here and
there an apologetic flag and occasionally q
family picnic. Nothing more aud nothing
less, and all on account of economical coun-
cilmen who were too old to be in first child
hood and hardly old enough for second. But
yesterday ushered in enough pink lemonade,
peanuts, popcorn, torpedoes, hre-
crackers, flags and music to compensate
for past deprivations. The young
folks of the town were jubilant, and in
vited large delegations from neighboring
an especially Jolly party from this city,
which was managed by Charlie Costello,
whose home is there but whose business
headquarters are here.
The older folks were plunged in the
deepest despair, and predicted riot and ruin
and uttered maledictions on the heads of the
young men of the community, who were re-
sponsible for the patriotic innovation. At
the last election they-the young men-de-
feated several of the superannuated council
men and laid them on the shelf Another
source of annoyance 10 the old folks, and of
joy to the young, who shake their sides
with laughter whenever they think of it, is
a paved street that New Lisbon, in its old
age, will soon be able to boast of, the di-
rect result, also, of the new councilmen.
