A JAvANEsE Tiger EIGHT.
An Entertainment That Is Dangerous to
Spectators.


Spectators.
An English traveller in Java who saw
one of the tiger fights peculiar to the
island thus describes the strange sport:
1.-THE tiger is set down in trap in the
center of the Alteration, or great
square and is surrounded by triple or
quadruple line of spearsmen, about a
hundred yards distant from him.
"When all is ready a Javanese adj
wances at avery slow pace, to the sound
of soft music, and sets fire to the trap,
at the same time opening the door at
the back part of the cage, which, by
the way, is too narrow for the tiger to
turn in.
''As the fire begins to SINCE his whisk-
ers, he gradually backs out. The man,
as soon as he has opened the door, be-
gins walking toward the crowd at a
slow pace, and, the slower he is, the
more applause does he gain.
1.-THE tiger meanwhile, having
backed out of his burning prison, is
rather astonished at finding himself
surrounded by hundreds of people, each
pointing a spear at him.
II nc ID d DOlu ClScI ne cdnJeTS TOunQ
the circle, almost touching the spears;
finding no opening, then he returns to
the center, fixes his eye on one spot,
and with a loud roar dashes straight at
it.
''He is received on the spears, and,
Cough he brushes many as if they were
mere reeds, in half a minute he falls
dead, pierced by hundred weapons.
I'm some instances, however, the roar
and charge are too much for the Javan-
ese, and they give way. The sport then
becomes rather dangerous to specta-
tors. youths Companion.

A BungIed Telegram.

A certain member of parliament, as
proud and fond as a man should be of
his beautiful young wife, was Just
rising to speak in a debate when
telegram was put in his hands. He
read it, left the house, jumped into a
cab, drove to Charing Cross and took
the train to Dover. Next day he re-
turned home, rushed into his wife's
room, and, finding her there, upbraided
the astonished lady in no measured
terms. She protested her ignorance of
having done anything to offend him.
Then what did you mean by your tel
egram?" he asked. "Mean? What I
said, of course. What are you talking
about?" Read it for yourself" said
he. She read: 81 flee with Mr.. X. to
Dover straight. Pray for me-" For a
moment words would not come; then.
after a merry fit of laughter the sus-
pected wife quietly remarked: ''Oh,
those dreadful telegraph people! No
wonder you are out of your mind,
dear. telegraphed simply: 4 tea with
Mrs. X. in Dover street. Stay for me. {"
