Mr. Grady wanted to call the new city

it Jerusalem. A squabble resulted and

was going to be divided into two dis

matters stood there before venturing
TO quit my watery refuge, and the
sight that met my gaze was certainly
one of the liveAest interest The tiger,
which ponderous but graceful. brute
seemed to bear no relationship TO the
overgrown cats which are dignifed by
that name in South America, looked
every inch the genuine lord Of the Ben
gal forest as he sat there firmly on his
launches, with forepaws extended out
ward and also firmly planted on the
ground. And he needed to put forth
all his strength now, for the capacious
jaws, still crimson with the blood of
the living meal had wrested from him,
were locked upon the neck of the boa,
while the body of the latter was wound
once and half about the tigers ribs,
passing outward between the fore legs,
and extending thence to a low lying
branch of the tree around which the tail
was coiled in a triple fold And, If the
noble brute appeared the very incarna.
tion of resistive strength, the python
complemented him as representing
forccful effort. II was altogether as re-
artist may desire to transfer to his can
vas.
An undulating, wave-like motion,
such as that OF a gorging leech, but on
a greater scale, continuously convulsed
the reptiles body, but it soon became
evident that its utmost strength Thus
exerted could not move its enemy from
his vantage ground And so that silent,
terrible death struggle continued during
several minutes, until at length the boa
put forth its reserve of energy in one
tremendous fnal effort Its body sud
denly appeared to become instinct with
a twofold motion. Beside the waving
movement, there was that peculiarly
serpentne longitudinal twirling that
resembled nothing so much as the mo-
tion Of a rope cable when the kinks are
being twisted out of it. Now. IL seemed
10 me. that the ribs of the tiger cracked
under the strain, and he certainly
swayed forward somewhat as another
coil Of the powerful tail wound itself
over the bough, and the head of the
reptile moved more freely. although far
from being yet free from the vise-lize
grip of the tiger.
Although a deeply interested, was
certainly most impartial. witness of
that monstrous duel; but somehow a
quiNotic impulse Of compassion for my
late enemy now possessed me and J es
sayed to attempt his rescue. Drawing

Cereals Also Rule Higher.


Cereals Also Rule Higher.
CHICAGO, Nov. ls-The.provision pit was
the center of interest to-day. The light re.
ceipts of hogs scared the shorts and Janu-
ary pork sold up 81 per barrel from the
price two days. Partly as a result of the
semi.panic in hog products, wheat was in
brisk demand closed with an advance of
more than a cent over last nights figures
Corn and oats gained 1l@18c.
Buoyancy and excitement prevailed in
hog products nearly all the day. The re-
ceipts of hogs we're about 5000 head less
than estimated and prices at the yards were
lOc to zoe higher. Shorts at once started TO
cover and there being little for sale quick
lump in values WAS the result. Wright
Cudahy and Robinson were all big BUYERS
The hog receipts for the week will probably
same week last year, and for October and
November will fall 100000 below the receipts
for the same time last year. There was i'm
mense realizing on the advance by the bull
CLIQUE, but the shorts were so demoralized
that they took all that was offered without

There was some cessation In the demand to-
ward the close and January pork tumbled
back, closing zoe from the top of the day,
but soc higher than last night.
Lard was even stronger than pork. The
Januarv delivery, which closed Yesterday
At xs I71%, advanced to S. 80 and stood at Ss Is
at the close. Ribs for January delivery ad-
yanced 25c and closed with a clear gain for
the day oil zoe.
A wild storm was prevailing in the North
west and smaller receipts of wheat were
nredicted for some days to come. The re-
CENTS locally fell sc cars below the estimate.
Gables reported the English markets as firm
and domestic markets were also a shade
better. while the buoyancy in the provision
market al so helped. With wheat harder to
sell than ever known before, and with the
Russian crop especially in bad repute owing
IN the cholera it was not believed that a
further burden would be laid upon it. How
ever, it was found difficult to buy wheat on
the advance.
The corn market was higher in sympathy
with wheat and in some measure also to
diminished receipts.
In oats a few orders were received and
trade was mostly of a scalping nature.
