No surprise was exhibited when the
bells and guns announced the birth of a
new year, as the demonstration was
wholly expected, but when number Of
men, usually called gentlemen for cour-
test, saw fit to further celebrate on the
night OF January LIST, and the morning
following, it was almost more than the
good citizens had bargained for, as they
were not used to remaining awake two
nights in succession. The sharp eXplos-
ion Of dynamite was terrorizing to ner-
vous people as it awakened them from a
ftful sleep, and the explosions were
timed with such regularity that just as
one was crossin the border into slum-
Der land again, they would receive a
rude awakening. Had this occurred on
New Year eve o one would have raised
a voice in opposition, but to be kept up
for the whole OF the night Of the LIST was
too much for even the Man-About- Town.
But the only damage was not to feelings
and nerves, but windows were shattered
in different localities, the most serious
breakage being IN Blackman Bros.
store, where several OF the small win
dows and one OF the plate glass windows
were broken by the force Of the oxpIos-
ions.
Now, the questions that arise with the
Mama bout-Town are were these gen
tlemen Chats courtesy responsible Tor

sideration in this matter than would be

ftude in its answers.

kEEP TIE OVENS CLEAN.

That it is a marked addition to the
flavor of oven cooked food that these
places should be kept scrupulously clean
is not SO well realized by housekeepers as
| it should be. In Devonshire, according
to Chambers's Journal, ovens are white
washed, a ptactic, that is excellent.
"Firstly," says the journal, "it makes
the ovens light, and it is doubtful If
ovens would be allowed to get so dirty
if they were not so dark and the dirt s.
inconspicuous. Then the lime whiting,
which is the particular in Sreiieat OF
whitewasb, is material approaching the
nature of a disinfectant; any Say, It is
not favorable to smells or odors of aay
kind Whatever. Lastly, it 50 plainly
shows by discoloration when o5jecsioDa-
bic results may beexpected aud the line
wash should be renewed"
If you cannot have tiled ovens, in
which bread and meats are most ad-
mirably baked, scrub out the blacE,
sooty ovens of your range and white
wash them, aud if you can't do this, at
least keep the ovens actually clean, ii
they do not look so.

WalIing in CrocodiIes.

One of the innumera bic curious
sights of India is the Nuggar tank of
kurachi. In former times the croco-
dies which inhabit it roamed the
neighbOrhOod at their will, seeking
whom they might devour, but so
great was their depredations that the
authorities were forced to build a wall
round their haunt This is a swamp,
caused by hot $ rings, the medicinal
virtues Of which have been known
from early times, and are attributed
to the sanctity or Mohammedan
whose tomb is close by and to whom
the CroCodilcs are sacred.
The tank, as it Is called, is about
$50 yards long by about half that dis.
tanCe in breadth. In this space one
observer count d over 200 reptiles
from eight to fifteen feet long, and
smaller ones innumerable. They are
so tame, in a sense, that it is neces-
sary TO poke them with a stick before
they will move.

the water, and are not attacked, but

Humphrey B. Ksndrick, former res
dent Of Santa Barbara, who has just re-
urnsd from residence of several year,
IN Japan, gives an interesting description
Of little mountain town named Nara in
that country.
Every one, OF almost every one, in
Nara, has DEER" said Mr.. Kendrick,
''and they are as plentiful there as dogs
in an American town, while around the
temples are great numbers, all sacred to
the japanese. And they are very tame,
coming up even to the stranger, and al.
most begging for gingerbread, Of which
they are very fond, and which the tour
ist is expected to buy for them. When
the Emperor, great many years ago,
came into Nara, and Nara, you know,
was the first capital of Japan, be rode on
white deer, and that at once made the
deer sacred, and at the same time it be-
came fashionable to own ore, and now
they are the most common thing to be
seen in the place, unless it be lanterns,
which are actually without number, and
of every kind and quality. A lantern In
Japan is very different from one here,
for there they are stone pillars, although
there are some of metal, and made 20 be

Of the temples which had been brought
from Holland long ago..
.'But while there are so many the
japanese will never count them. That
would be very wicked thing in the
sight of the gods, who keep the number
a careful secret. And though sacrilegious
foreigners have made the attempt no two
of them have ever counted them. the

ponds-no such fish as you sec here, but
twelve and fourteen inches long, and OF
such a deep color, darker than orange
even. Aud those with the iau-taiis are
beautiful. All Of the ponds and lakes
are full of them, and US the water is
very clear, it is a marvellous thing to
stand on the shore and watch them dart
through the ripples, and when out IN

A Eerder Saved by His Do-.

Wesley Newton, who came in from
Marquette, tells of a desperate encounter
that one Of his sheep herders had with a
On the night in question Andrew ThomD
son, one Of his herders, was asleep in his
ca biz, with his herd corraled close at
hand. Hearing commotion among the
band he went out to investigate, and
saw q mountain lion making of with one
Of his charges.
Thompson was unarmed, but without
hesitation ran to the rescue of the sheep,
when the lion dropped its prey and
sprsng upon him, telling him to the
ground. Thompson's faithful shepherd
dog took hand in the encounter and
undoubtedly saved his masters life, al
though It was at the cost of his own.
The mans clothing was almost COM
pletely torn off of him, and he was quite
severely scratched in number of places,
but while the lion aud the dog were en-
gagged he succeeded in extricating him
self and made his way to the cabin,
where he secured his rife. The trusted
dog was still fighting his powerful aud
unequal adversary when Thompson re-
turned and he quickly dispatched the
lion with a single shot, but not until the
noble dog had been killed.
Lion, dog and sheep all laid within
few feet Of each other, the ground was
red with blood, and Thompson, with his
clothing torn III shreds and bleeding
from a dozen painful wounds, presented
the appearance of having tackled huge
grizzly bear. Fortunately Thompsou's
wounds are not serious, bat he is salts
fed that he would have been killed had
1t not been for the interference of his
dog.

two artillerymen Of AndOIra were
ready to fire, it occurred to one Cf the
citizens that the shot might caus
some trouble. The territory of the
Republic Of Andorra does not extend
over more than six kilnmeters To
direct the shot, therefore, toward the
sur ounding mountains would be the
same as firing at France or Italy, as
the ball would necessarily fall on the
territory OF one of these countries
1t was then decided TO shoot the ball
in the air, but some one suggested
that . would endanger the Ii es Of
too many people in its descent, and
possibly bore great hole in the Ee-
public of AndOrra Good counsel
prevailed, and the two artillerymen
