Thing About camel,.

Some years ago, when the British
troops were fighting against the forces
OF the Mahdi in the Soudan, opppor.

respondents accompanying the expedi.
tion to study the habits Of the camel.
Most of the transportation of the SOL
diers' baggage was dcne by these
ships CT the desert" US they are call
ed, and at night some of the newspaper
men spent a portion of their leasure
trying to learn something new about
these strange creatures.
One OF them, who was an inveterate
smoker, discovered that the camel is q
great lover of tobacco. Let any ono
smoke IL pipe or cigar in the camel
compound, said he, and the camel will
follow the smoker about, place his nose
close to the burning tobacco, inhale
the fumes with a prolonged sniff,
swallow the smoke, then throwing his
head up, with mouth agape and eyes
upturned, showing the bloodshot
whites, will grunt sigh of costa, ~
that would make the fol tunc Of low
comedian in a lovc scene.

seems t, be longing for something and
refuses t. be comforted until he gets it.
you might give him q cigar. He is
usually so intelligent that it woald
probably take very few lessons to teach
him how to smoke in most expert
fashion.-Harpers Young People.

BILL WAS MARCHED FORTH UNDER ARREST

before the guard tent all day, with a
big placard suspended from his neck
bearing the word "rH1EF" in great
black letters.
That night, when Bill came to our
mess fire, l felt SO disgusted with him
that I scarcely spoke; for while thiev-
ing i'll the army was not exactly the
same Us in civil life, could not but
feel a contempt for him, the synonym
of all that was noble and proud in the
regiment.
"What on earth could have caused
you to descend SO low, Bill?" asked,
as we drew our only blanket over our
heads that night.
"Well, said he with yawn, which
showed far too much indifference, II
felt that I was just bound to have u
whole side of bacon once more"
II wouldn't have believed it of you,
Bill, 1 replied, with no little contempt
in my tones, and" con. .inued, "you
must bunk with some one else here
after"
We'll see about that tomorrow" he
answered. I'm too sleepy row to talk
much, and in minute he was sound
asleep and snoring.
The next day q good many of the
boys turned the cold shoulder to Bill,
but he seemed so hardened and brazen
that I felt no delicacy in again refer
ring to his disgrace.
what were you going to do with
your plunder, Garrett ?" I asked, when
we were alone.
"Don't you think our mess-table
could stand such an addition and not
suffer? p he replied, with so little shame
in his manner that I felt far greater
contempt for him than ever.
"Our mess doesn't wish any help by
such MEANS" / answered, and turned
on my heel to leave him.
*Hold on q minute. he said, and
half turned to hear what he had to
say.
@The boys are pretty hard on me,
don't you think so?"
@No harder than they should be-"
answered. csldly, but q bit of compas.
sion overcanve me for the moment, and
I continueds
aHow is IL, Bill, that you, whom
every one regarded as the soul oi
honor, should SO far forget yourself a.
to descend to the level of the Lowest
scum in the regiment?'
The great burly fellow looked full
in my face and burst into loud horse
laugh.
1 instantly left him without auothe,
word, but he called to me to come
back. Taking no notice of him, he
again called me in more earnest man
ner, which prompted me to pause and
wait for him to draw near.
II think I'll make clean breast o
the whole matter, If you won't give m,
away" he said, in y more serious man

STOLEN BY APES.
The Awful Experience Of Sea Captain's
Wife.

:. Wife.
sIt was In 1866 that I sailed on aa
English brigantine from Nantucket
bound for the Gilbert islands," Thus
began an old seaman by the name OF
Higgins, and, as 1t was known that his
experience had been almost unlimited,
his hearers gathered around him to
hear the tale they knew must follow this
introduction. The tale was certainly .
good one. He said that his captain on
the voyage was David Parks and that
he he'd his bride on the vessel. One
day they landed on an island. Sud-
denly Mrs. Parks was missed. and In
the afternoon several Of the crew were
dispatched in search OF her, among
them the relator. For several days the
search was continued, but with no other
result than the finding Of vast numbers
OF baboons and monkeys, whose chat
ter at being disturbed was deafeaing.
At last the heart broken captain was
compelled to give up the search and
continue the voyage.
In the course Of year he returned
to the same island and made landing.
He met with the same impudent apes,
and there seemed to have been no flight
OF time on that far-away island. Among
which there was q large hollow and by
the cavity stood Mrs. Parks. nearly
naked, and her breast, arms and legs
tolerably covered with hair. The cap
tain gave shout of joy and started to-
ward her. At the same time huge
babboon swung himself down from the
lower limbs Of the tree and before q
movement could be made toward her
rescue had strangled her to death. A
grave was dug by the side o, the tree
and the remains of the victim we're in
TERED, and then the nearly crazed cap.
