An old comrade Of mine, Sergeant John
Nihle, attached to the United States cav
airy, was out with scouting party, and
they were surprised by party Of In
dams four times their number. They
exchanged shots with them, wheeled
about and made for camp, some miles
distant.
The Indians continued firing, and final
ly one of the white men was hit and fell
from his horse. Quick as q fash Mile
dismounted, dropped on his knee and
fred at the foremost Indian, bringing
him to the ground. Jumping up be
placed his wounded comrade across bis
horse, jumped up behind him, and by
keeping up continual FIRE at his puy;
suers carried him into camp. Congress-
awarded Nihle q medal and also q GER
tificate setting forth the facts Of his hero
ism. He was the champion shot Of the
army for several years, his left breast
being decorated with medals to the value
of 300, but the one he prizes most is the
simple one of bronze awarded by con-
gress.

Erect Of Music ON Animals.

At the ZOO the zebra, wild ass, deer
and ostrich went into paroxysms Of rage
at the sound of the piccolo, although
they had manifested various signs bf
pleasure over the violin and flute. The
tiger was asleep, and refused to be awak-
ened by the. fiddler and autist. But
when the man with the piccolo began to
play the animal sprang furiously TO it's
feet and rushed angrily up and down the
cage, lashing its tail. So extreme was
the beasts anguish that the piccolo man
speedily gave place to the lutist. The
difference In effect was at once apparent.
The tiger stopped, listened. lay down
and purred like kitten in It's enjoyment
Of the grateful sounds, and presently fell
asleep in luxurious repose. - London

she was travelling in Iceland she found
that Of all our great countrymen the
only one who seemed to be familiar to
the Icelanders was Jay Gould. One Of
the first questions her native guide asked
her on learning that she was from Amer
lea was: "You come from America. Per.
haps, then, you know Jay Gould? And
has he really more money than he can
ever COUNT" Even far in the interior Of
the island, where the people could speak
no English, they begged the guide to ask
her If she really knew or had ever seer

The DAILY Dinner In some Houses.

In no way has the spirit of the times
brought more change than in the dinner
hour and costume. The grandfathers Of
the present generation thought 9 o'clock
late hour to dine, but now 1880 is con
sidered early. The master should also
don his dress suit, although the Tuxedo
coat in ones own house is allowable
The mistress dresses as though for ball,
the only difference being in the ma
terial, which is palmer, and the sleeves.
which are worn long. The same formal
ity must be observed in serving the din
ner as obtains when number of guests
are present. Vogue.
