A steer in Church.

A dog and steer formed combina-
ton which put sudden end to the
services in q Westminster Conn meet
ing house the other day and sent Tie
worshipers scurrying into the streets.
The dog was doing under wagon
when stock dealer drove n herd of
cattle past the meeting house. The
dog awollc and ran among the cattle,
stampeding them. One steer dashed
into the church, carrying the light
green baize door on his horns. He
rushed up the aisle believing wildly
and throwing the worshipers into con-
stcrnation. lie halted before he
reached the pulpit and stood gazing at
the pastor. Every member of Tie
cl'-,rch seized the opportunity 20 escape
and rushed out. The pastor, left alone,
jumped from the pulpit and tried to
drive the steer out. But he did not sue
coed. Had he not sought refuge in a
pew where the steer could not reach
him the Infatuated animal would have
made short work of him. When the
animal became tired of demolishing the
church property the preacher re-entered
the pulpit and, the congregation re-
turning, tool, up his sermon at the
point where it was SO rudcly inter
rupted.

The Calcutta Englishman contains q
1looa-curdling account of the doings OF
man-eating leopard lately shot in the
RaJshahi district, in Bengal, The mon
stcr had destroyed one hundred and
hfty-four persons before he was brought
down. His appetite for flesh, his ferocity,
his cunning and his audacity were
unexampled in the leopard tribe, and
they would have done credit to tiger.
He depopulated whole villages, for the
mere terror of his name sent the inhab-
itants flynn" as soon as he had seized a
solitary victim in their midst.
For miles around the people never
ventured to leave their houses after
nightfall until they heard he was dead.
But this was no great hindrance to him.
He would seize them from the verandas
when they were smoking the evening
pipe, and sometimes he penetrated the
very houses in the dead of night and
carried away children-oftcn without
giving the slightest alarm to the other
inmates.
As rule, he killed only one person at

OYSTER Culture,

rroI. John A. Ryder, of the Universe
ty of Pennsylvania, has been expert
menting in oyster culture. He believes
that the cultivation of the oyster is not
only feasible but that it will soon be-
come necessity. lie has formulated n
plan which consists of a wire netting
stretched horizontally on piles few
inches below low-water mark. On this,
as foundation, shells are thicllly
strewn to serve as foundation for the
oyster. A few living oysters scattered
here and there over the bed will furnish
the young oysters, which, in single
year, will grow to two inches or more
in diameter They are then sufficiently
hardy to be planted anywhere. Ills in
vcstigations have shown that the prin-
cipal enemy of the young oyster is not
an animal but is merely muddy water.

A BORN CALCULATOR.

Won dcrful Mental FeatS OF Mnthemat-
icaI Prodigy.
This gift, like Blind Toms musical
talent, very often is accompanied by
rather inferior mental power or even
very defective intellect in other re-
| spects Columbus (Kan.) corrcspon-
| dent of the Scientific American gives
the following notes regarding the pro-
digious calculating faculty possessed by
Reuben Field, native of La Fayette
county, Mo-, about forty-ive years old.
Field is described as "a very strong,
heavy-set man." He never went to
school, even day, for the sole reason
that he was always regarded as an
idiot. He can neither read nor write,
and his reasoning powers have never
developed beyond those of a child of
the most ordinary intellect. In the
face of these facts, however, he has the
keenest perception of the relation of
numbers and quantities, and is able, as
if by instinct, to solve the most intri-
cate mathematical problems. He does
not know figures on 4 blackboard,
but he understands them perfectly in
his mind No one has ever been able to
''catch him" in multiplication or in
division. He has been given such prob
lens as: ''The circumference of the
earth is, in round numbers, 1000 miles.
How many flax seeds, allowing twelve
to the inch, will it require to reach
around it?" Within q minute he re-
turns the answer: 80 zoos, 900, 000.'
If the distance to the sun or 10 any of
the planets is taken, he answers with as
great ease. If given the day of the
month and the year on which an event
occurred, he instantly gives the day of
the week. But what is yet more re-
markable is that he can tell TIE time ut
any hour, day or night, without ever
missing it, even minute. If awakened
out of a deep sleep in the darkness of
night, and asked the time he gives it ut
once. Once in my Office 1 asked him the
time. He replied at once: Sixteen
minutes after three" In order to test
him, drew him off upon some other
question, not letting him know my OBJ
ject, and when seventeen minutes had
passed, looked at my watch and asked
him the time. He said: ''Twenty-seven
minutes to four
