FIGHT WITH A TIGER.-Donald
Burns, the Barnum of Roosevelt street,
says he had fight with a tiger in his
store at the foot of Roosevelt street,
New York, Wednesday night. The
tiger, Mr.. Burns says, is a South Amer
ican beast, and about 4 years old. The
brute was confined in a heavy wooden
box about five feet long and three wide.
When Mr.. Burns's son, Jimmie, OPEN
ed the sliding door to feed it, the tiger
saw large monkey chained nearby,
leaped clear of the cage and caught the
monkey.
Mr.. Burns started to save the mon
kew, and there was mix The tiger
had the monkey, and Burns and his
boy had the pair. Burns dragged the
tiger away and yelled to the boy to
pull the monkey away. So they pull
ed. The monkey chartered and the
tiger growled.
It took a second or two for Jimmie
to wrench the monkey away from the
tiger, and then, quick as flash, the
tiger turned upon Mr.. Burns. He seiz-
ed Burns's right hand in his mouth and
dug his claws into Burns's leg. His
forepaws scratched Burns's arm, but
Burns's left arm was free, and with
that he seized the tiger by the throat
and choked the beast until his right
hand was released. Then it was not
long before he had the tiger powerless
and back in the cage. Then Burns
wrapped his hand in bag and started
for doctor.

Electricity's Rival.

In view of the objections to the over
head electric system for propulsion of
cars on surface roads in cities, says the
Engineering Magazine, the annoyance
from tearing up streets and the cost of
plant and maintenance of the cable
lines, the expense of horse power, with
the sanitary evils resulting from the
location of stables in populous cities,
the fact that pneumatic motors, after
successful demonstration of their supe-
riority, have been largely overlooked
seems inexplicable. These motors not
only are entirely free from the obJec-
tionable features of the other systems,
but they furnish mode of propulsion
which is more safe and more economl-
cal than any other with equal velocity
of transit. These assertions are made
advisedly and are based on actual de-
monstration.
In 1878 and 1879 five pneumatic mo-
tors were run for several months on
the Second Avenue Railroad in New
York with perfect success. The posi-
ton taken by the officers of horse rail
road companies, both in New York and
Philadelphia, was that any car running
along city streets without horses in
front would frighten horses, cause runa-
way accidents and subject companies
to suits for damages. This objection,
of course, applies with much greater
force to the cable and trolley systems,
which are accompanied by loud hum
ming noise, while the pneumatic
motor can have q noiseless ex-
haust. But no argument or ex-
planation ever availed in the face
of this senseless objection. One rail
road president declared that if the mo-
tor was adopted by his company it
would be necessary to kill some OF his
old horses, stuff the skins and mount
pair of them on low truck in front of
each car.
Conditions existing now seem favor
able for the introduction of motor
which, free from the objections to all
other symptoms, with no new defec.s
of its own, may be considered as pei
feet. No fears are now entertained
that car running without horses in
front will make a stampede OF all
equines on the streets traversed, and
this in 1879 was the only reason urged
in opposition to the introduction Of the
pneumatic motor. The system would
be particularly adapted to suburban To-
calities and afford better facilities for
rapid trar st than are now afforded by
elevated railroads, for while the speed
would be equal to twenty miles or more
per hour, the stops need not be limited
to stations, but could be made at any
POINT.
With the small class of motors thrt Q
cars, or two in addition to the motor
can ascend grades as steep as any usual
" found on horse railroads. This is
point of the greatest value for public
accommo iation. 1t will enable COM
pany to utilize all its old cars and sup
ply additional cars at the hours when
the rush of travel requires them with
out additional expense for power or
conductors. The pneumatic motor
would be peculiarly adapted to under
ground roads, as the escape of pure air
would assist in the ventilation, but it is
the best possible for all urban or su-
burban roads, whether elevated, sur
face or in tunnels.
