IRE charged to children attending these
common schools, although they may be
RENTED in case of indulgence, and 40.
parently more than one-third of the

aTlae Freedom OF the CITY,

's'The freedom OF the city" in the case
of Ann Arbor, Mich, and ex-President
Cleveland has no significance beyond the
fact that it is a formal and traditional
tender OF hospitality-of the esteems of
the whole body of citizens comprising
the corporation and an acknowledgment
of their distinguished visitors eminence
and public and private worth. The
ceremony does not make Mr.. Cleveland
a citizen of Ann Arbor. In this instance
the freedom of the city was typifed in a
series of resolutions engrossed on parch-
ment and reposing in a leather-sheathed
silver casket. When any person is pre-.
sented with the freedom of the City of
London, England, he receives a parch-
ment slip on which are written his name
and titles, and it guarantees to the
holder and his descendants forever the
right to live aud trade within the city
without having to pay a tax IN their
goods as they are ssbrought through the
gates" It likewise exempts the holder
from naval and military service and tolls
and duties throughout the United King
dom and insures his children the care of
the city chamberlain who, in case they
are left orphans, takes charge Of theil
property aud administers it in their in.

Says tins Louisville Courier-Journal:
IA good deal more gold coin would be
in circulation if it were not for the fact
that many persons hoard stall amounts
Of it, though they are no more benefited
by this saving than if it were silver or
paper. These hoarders are chiefly
women, many who keep every gold piece
they find in the pockets of their husbands
and hold on to every one slat comes to
them in any other way. It is just as
well that this should be so, as handlers
of much money prefer paper to any kind
of coin. The ladies may as well keep
their gold pieces out of circulation as
long a possible"

How a Lion Attacks.

An E~ngiishmsn from Bombay, India,
says that the popular pictures of liens
bounding at their victims misrepresent
this animals mode of attack. Like other
fierce animals the lions as a rule endeavor
to avoid the sportsman until wounded,
when, like the tiger, they charge with q
coughing roar. When he does attack
you, the lion goes at great speed close
to the ground and knocks you off your
legs. He speaks from experience, as he
has killed many lions, and was nearly
killed By n that he had wounded. He
was dreadfully lacerated, but says that
the lions claws and teeth did not hurt

would. The really painful part Of the

OF arms and ammunition were thrown in
to the bayou near the time of the cessa-
