Sizes In Tiger Skins.

That the Royal Bengal tiger is no
uncomfortable beast is a well-known
fact, but to even give an approximate
guess on the length of one of the
monsters skins would puzzle many
persons who really believe themselves
to be naturalists. For tho benefit of
the Republics scientific readers, as
we'll as the would-be Nimrods, who
wish to appear to be loaded with ami
NAL statistics and facts Of all kinds, [
will say that the length of the largest
tiger skin ever taken latter being
stretched and dried) WA 10 feet 81
inches. This must not be taken as
meaning the actual length of the living
beast, for the skins expand sur
prisingly while undergoing the curing
process, a green skin of ten feet being
accounted q wonder; i'll fact, Mr..
Inglis, the recognized tiger authority
of Great Britain and India, says that
the greatest known length OF an IN
dressed skin was 10 feet % inches. 1t
is believed, however, that the pre-
decessors of tho present tribe Of
Bengalese cats were from a fifth to n
third larger than the gigantic striped
feline that roams the Indian iungles
of to-day, and that the old stories of
their carrying off full-grown oxen are
not exaggerations. st. Louis Re

History has no more gratulatory scene
than the breaking in of the English army
upon Lucknow, India. A few weeks before
4 massacre had occurred at Cawnpore, and
260 women and children had been put in a
room. Then five professional butchers went
In and slew them. Then the bodies of the
slain were taken out and thrown into a well.
AS the English army came into Cawnpore
they went into the room. and, oh, what a
horrid scenei Sword strokes on the wall
pear the door, showing that the poor things
had crouched when they died, and they saw
also that the fioor was ankle deep in blood.
The soldiers walked on their heels across it
lest their shoes be submerged of the carnage.
And on that floor of blood there were flow
ing locks OF hair and fragments of dresses.
Out in Lucknow they had heard of the
massacre, and the women were waiting for
The same awful death, waiting amid anguish
untold, waiting in pain n starvation, but
waiting heroically, when one day Havelock
and Outram and Norman n Sir David
Baird and Peel, the heroes of the En- lish
l~rmy-huzza for them l-broke in on that
horrid scene, and while yet the guns were
sounding, and while cheers were issuing
from the starving, dying people on the one
tide and nom the travel worn and powder
olaokened soldiers on the other, right there
IN front Of the kings palace there was u a
pcene Of handwriting and embracing and
ooisterous joy as would utterly confound the
pen Of the poet and the pencil of the painter.
And no wonder, when these emaciated
women, who had suffered so heroically for
Christ's sake, marched out from their incar-
,~erations one wounded English soldier got
Up in his fatigue and wounds and leaned
against the wall and threw his cap up and
shouted, "Three cheers, my boys, for the
Brave women p
Oh, that was an exciting scene But a
sladder and more triumphant scene will it
30 when you come up into heaven from the
conflicts and incarcerations of this world,
streaming with the wounds of battle and won
With hunger. And while the hosts of God
Ire cheering their great hosanna you will
trike hands Of co~ngratulation and eternal
ieliveranco in the presence Of the throne. On
hat night there will be bonfires on every hill
If heaven, and there will be illumination in
Nery palace, and there will be a candle in
very window. All, no, l forget, 1 forget.
They will hive no need Of the candle or of
he sun, for the Lord God giveth them light,
md they shall reign forever and over. Hail,
lail, sons and daughters Of the Lord God
