Pig sticking.

The most popular sport in India is pig
sticking" A number of elephants form a
circle and beat the jungle to drive the wild
boars out into the open. Here are stationed
a number of horsemen with lances, who
Immediately give pursuit to the boar He
gives them wild chase until some lance
has wounded him, then he turns and gives
the horsemen a desperate fight. Sometimes
horses are ripped open by the huge tusks Of
the boar. 1t is most exciting, but extreme

The Public Press.

1t may be truthfully affirmed that the
public press is an educator; that it is the
champion of right, the defender of the in
jured, and the terror Of evildoers, and
what is Of encouragement to all is the fact
that it keeps in the advance and carries
its standard in the front of civilization
and of refinement. If not the ideal lead
er, it is at least a living exponent of best
thoughts Of good men, and is, as a rule,
found upon the side of truth and right

Treated the Prince.

Prince Henry of Prussia, the brother OF
the emperor of Germany, while hunting a
few days ago in the neighborhood Of Kiel,
started to cross a field, when he was stopped
by a peasant. As he was unable'to per
suade the peasant to allow him TO trespass,
he invited him into a neighboring res
taurant and treated him to several glasses
of beer. Finally the peasant asked his en-
tertainer who he was, and ON getting the
answer said, "Then 1 must treat you to
beer also" It is needless to add that the
prince continued his hunt without further
interruption. on.-Berlin Letter.

Unmarried Girls Kent In Cages.

The inhabitants of New Britain have pc
culiarcustom of conflning theirgirlsi in cages
until they are old enough to be married.
The cages are made of the palm tree. and the
girls are put into them when ? or years of
age. These cages are built inside of the
houses, and the girls are never allowed to
leave the house under any circumstances.
The houses are closely fenced in with a sort
of wicker work made of reeds. Ventilation
under the circumstances is rendered diff
cult. The girls are said to grow up strong
and healthful in spite of these disadvan-

women Live Longer Than Men

The fact that women live longer than
men is thus illustrated by the Westminster
Gazette: The excess of females of all ages
over males of all ages in England and
Wales is only about 81 per cent Gn round

pare women over 90 with men over 90 the
female majority becomes much greater,

The Chicago Spectacular

The following expressions from the
newspapers of Chico 90 show very clear
IL how the enterprise, known as THE
Chicago Speetltorium" is regarded
by the professional critics of the great
city on the lake.
Chicago Times There was promise
of the most startling novelties in the
way of an exhibit that the world ever
saw" Chicago Globe:-"No descrip-
ton can do justice to the grandeur of
the conception or to the marvellous
realization" Stats Zeitung:-'It will
be without doubt, one of the grandest
sights ever shown in public" Chicago
Post:-"There were those present who
predicted that The Spectacular would
rival the Worlds Fair ITSELF" The
Inter Ocean All were ready to agree
that this Spectatorio would be to art
what the Eiffel Tower was to engineer
ing" The Herald:-"Art tells the
story of Columbus. People will talk of
il one day as one of the most facinating
features of the Far The presentation
of the story win be instructive and
entertaining in the highest and truest
sense. Music and ART will be called
into requisition to assist in its recital. y
The Tribune" Already enough has
been accomplished TO make revolution
in stage lighting" The various papers
published in other cities have given it
like praise. The Louisville Courier
Journal says.-"It was spectacle
whose splendor will eclipse anything
ever before witnessed" The Memphis
Appeal Avalanche: "Watterson called
il q wonder and that is what the
Syectatorium really is" Philadelphia
Ledger:-''It will be one of the great,
prominent attractions of the west. ="
The Detroit Free Press said:--"Its
object is 10 make an alliance between
Nature and art.

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deafness,
and that IS by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
EIstachian Tube. When this tube gets
lnfiamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when ii is en-
tirely closed Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tute restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catanh, which is nothing but an
inilamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
