ing until she was completely covered from
head to foot Then she had boils. She had
forty on her head at one time, and more on

up and got so bad she could not shut her eyes
to sleep, but laid with them half open. About
this time, at the earnest request Of friends, 1

THE SEA-COW BIRD.
It Performs a Singular Service for It.
 Amphibian Friend.


 This diminutive little creature-onlv about six inches long-is neatly ar. rayed in brown upon the upper parts black and white underneath, upon the throat appearing the three distinctly, collars, first of black, then of white then of black again. Sea-cow, or, il Boer Dutch, ''zee-lsoe," is the colonia name for the hippopotamus, and the treble-collared blower takes its colonial designation tsea-cow bird) from its ire quent habit of attending the unwieldly behemoth. Running about the back and head of that amphibian, picking of insects and other odds and ends. this little blower seems perfectly at home, while the sea-cov apparently ac- cepts it's offices in good part
 This friendship between wild and often fierce quadrupeds and small birds is of common occurrence in Africa and other countries; the rhinoceros, the buffalo, and the Burchels zebra, among others, all having their pecul- jar feathered attendants. The sea COW bird-unless when actually in at tendance upon its big friend-betrays none of the jealousy or restlessnesS at the sight of mankind so often notice able in other members of the family: and I have had no trouble in approach ing quite closely to the birds as they fed fearlessly in the shallows and upon the mud flats of African .vleis'' and rivers.
 The spur-winged plover is itself well-known attendant upon the croco- dile, entering its mouth, as it lies with its jaws wide open, and cleansing it of leeches and other parasites. It seems to be now well recognized that the Trochilos of Herodotus - who first chronicled his friendship between bird and crocodile-was no other than tf,~ spur-winged plover

After M Years.

Al Koska has received a letter from town in Austin county. Texas, which leaves no doubt but that he is at last in communication with his brothers, whom he has no, seen or heard Of in fory-three years.
 A short time since, Mr. Sydow, father of E. Sydow Of this city. in con- yersation with Mir. Koska mentioned the fact of his knowing two brothers living in Texas named Koska. His description of their characteristics Of speech, etc, interested Al. and he wrote to one of them by name, telling of his whereabouts iorty-three years ago and his parents names.
 Ths letter received yesterday con- firp;ed the belief and leaves no doubt of his brothers being the persons ad- dressed.
 In 1850 the K 1ska family. consist ing of ihe parents and four sons, land ed at Graytown, state of Nicaragua. Al. was taken with the California gold fever and left that rlace for San Fran cisco. From that day to this all ef- forts to discover their whereabouts proved futile, although he has been in constant communication with those who would be most probable to solve the mystery. ---
 The letter received conre. he in telligence that his father was ship wrecked near Panama and his mother died shortly afterward. One of his brothers is in the east and two of them are in easy circumstances in Texas.
 Al. is making arrangements to visit them in the near future, and is over joyed with the prospect of reunion.

 The prisoner and the prosecuting witness were in the stuffy court room mopping their brows, the police off, cers were dripping and the august court on the bench was paddling the suffocating air with a palmieaf, says the Detroit Free Press.
 ''I just picked these two up on the street fghtin', yer honor," exclaimed the officer.
 ''Ah?" queried the court, looking at the battered eye of the witness.
 II wasn't doing a thing, your honor. '' said the witness, but I just passed him the time of day. when he up and biffed me in the eye"
 ''The assault was entirely unpro- voked?" said the judge, holding up his hand warningly for the other to keep still.
 ''Yes, your honor, it was"

ESCAPED CIRCUS ANIMALS.
It Is No Fun Catching n Runaway Giraffe
 or an Hoping Elephant.

On another occasion was journey ing through Suez with a giraffe which for five months had been living in the German eonsul's garden, says a writer in McClure's Magazine. I was lead ing it to the station, when it suddenly took fright and ran away. For four long, weary miles I hung on to the wretched beast, but at last l was obliged to drop the rope and let go. A smart little Nubian boy then took up the chase. He got hold of the rope and eventually tied it round tree, and after awhile we led the animal quietly back to the station.
 But one of the most alarming ad- ventures that ever overlook me whilst I was transporting animals was that which occurred once when twelve elc- plants broke away from me and rushed through the streets of Vienna. The whole twelve had been deposited in a de- pot,where they had to rest for two days. l was taking six of the elephants to lead them to the station, and when my back was turned and I was engaged with these six elephants, the other six stealthily and quietly pulled up the iron rings by which they were fastened to the ground, trumpeted loudly. and. before I knew what had happened. the twelve animals were rushing through the streets of Vienna. At last, after a long chase, I caught the biggest ele- phant and led it to the station, the others following quietly enough. But my troubles were not over yet, for hardly got the first four into a railway van when the others began to howl The four elephants in the train plunged and kicked about, and at last they broke their ropes and ran out of the van, followed by all the others, and into the open streets. Then began another hunt up the big fashionable streets, down little courts and alleys, once after one which ran into a big shop, all over big park, and this went on for three hours, until, at last. greatly to my relief, got them safely into the station and packed into the vans for their journey.
