An African Pest.

With regard to the utility OF the croco
die there are diverse opinions. 1t is GER
tainly scavenger, though when the rapid
currents of most rivers are taken into con-
sideration the Importance of his mission
dwindIes. The author of "In the Moran
bala Marsh" says that along the banks of
African streams it is dangerous to APP
proach the river edge Water for domestic
purposes is obtained from the top of the
banks by means of cup attached to Il
bamboo pole 90 or 30 feet in length. and in
spite of these precautions the death roll is Il
most CHASTITY one.
The primitive dugouts used by the ma
tives for travelling on the rivers are in
many cases merely deathtraps. While the
man is padding along, barely two inches
above the surface of the water, the croco-
die seizes his hand and drags him to the
bottom.
On one occasion l sent down some let
tiers by Hindoo merchant, and II few
weeks later heard that both letters ana
postman had been devoured by crocodiles.
At another time l was strolling along the
bank, and hearing cries arrived at the wa
ter's edge in time to seize a young boy
whose leg had been caught by one of these
brutes and torn from him. He escaped with
his life, thanks to my timely arrival.
In some places one sees thousands OF
crocodiles on mud bank, most of them
scarcely inches in length, evidently just
hatched. A week does rot pass but in
some river village walls and lamentations
are heard for fresh victim to the croco-
dile's Unsuitable appetite. Youths Com

about worms. Worms don't hurt cider

The Tomb of COnfucius.

The city Of Chufu- hsien, the Mecca OF
the believers in Confucianism, is i'll the
province of Shangtung, one of the most
populous districts Of the orient. Here Con
fucius was born, and here his sacred bones
lie buried. The tomb, which is located in
one of the largest cemeteries in the prov
ince. about three miles ont from the city
above mentioned, is one of the most impos-
ing in the whole empire.
The grave itself is surmounted by an
earth mound about ~ feet in height, the
whole surrounded by cluster of gnarle'l
oaks and stately cypress trees. Before the
mound is a tablet about feet broad and
20 feet high. upon which is inscribed the
names and deeds of the great founder of
Confucansm. religion adhered to by
over 400 O0G 900 human beings. The bur
den of this inscription, according To relia-
BILE translation, is Perfect One, Also
Iutely Pure Perfect Sage, First
Teacher, . Great Philosopher, etc.
The avenue which leads up to the phi
losophers tomb is even more interesting
than the actual place of burial itself. On
each side of the avenue are rows of figures
of huge animals cut in stone-lions, tigers,
elephants and horses, besides numerous
mythical creatures, such as animals hall
dog and half frog. beasts with four legs
and twice as many wings, besides null
titude of unnamable monsters that never
lived on the earth, in the water or IN the
air Taken altogether, the burial place
of Confucius is one of the chief spots of in
terest in the orient.-St. Louis Republic.

against Prominent Ci izen Of augusta tx.
cites Much Interest.

II. d. Saunders Of Portland, United Statep
marshal, came TO Augusta Thursday morn
ing and arrested S. S. Lancaster, Esq. Til,
Arrest came about by reason of an old case,
in which Judgement had been secured
against Mr.. Lancaster. but the matter had
10. been pushed for some reason.
The case was Lii lie l.. O;is, Ellenville,
county Of Ulster, state Of New York VS..
Stephen s. Lane i:ter of Augusta, Me. IL
appears from the writ that the suit wa.
commenced Dec. och, 1885 and was re
tufnable before the United States circuit
court at Portland, April 23I, 1886. The
ad damnum claimed is $4,000 AMI a real
estate attachment was made at the time, it
is said.
The cause Of action is set forth in two
counts. Fist, on pronissory not in
favor of Lille l.. Otis, signed by Stephen
promising to pay $1,000 in one year from
that date with interest. The specifications
Of the second count are as follows: "On
the 9th day of March, 1890, defendant held
n c, rtain mortgage of said plaintiff (the de-
PENDANT then and there acting as agent and
attorney for said pllintif). Sid mortyagf
was for the sum of $4,000 from Isadore C.

said mortgage being dated October

agent and attorney for said plaintiff, col
lected the sail sum of $4,000 from said
mortg agors on said mortgage, AMI though
requested by ssi plaintiff has never paid
said sum or any part of it to said plaintiff.
Judgment was rendered in this action ag inst
Lancaster Sept. %, 1886, for about Sl770
and $3G costs. Since that time the pain
lifts attorneys say they have tried to gel
suade Mr.. Lancaster to pay the amount of
the Judgment but without any success.

circumstances and accordingly placed the
execution, which nov amounts to little
over $4,000, in the hands of II. Il. Sum
ders, United States marshal, with written
instructions to collect at once or arrest Mr..
Lancaster. As result the MARSHAL came
down from Portland Thursday morning and
in company with Deputy Sheriff Morse ar
rested Mr.. Lancaster at his house about 10
o'c.ock.
Mr.. Lancaster then furnished poor

months, pay the execution ard costs in full
or surrender himself to the keeper of

the case which appear peculiarly, and it is
