WASHINGTON. Aug. 29.-Some days
ago Commissioner Miller, of the in
ternal revenue bureau, telegraphcd

Face to Face With Tigers.

Among Sir Hope Grants notes Of his

close encou 5ers with tigers, though Sir
Hope himself does not figure in either adj
venture Major Callnet was out shooting
when he came suddenly face to face with
tiger. Just as he was firing the howdah
gave way, and he fell almost into the ami

The tiger seized him by the thigh and
carried him off. While in this situation
he recollected that he had brace of pistols
in his pocket. He managed to draw one
and snapped it at the beasts head, but it
missed fire
Still retaining his presence Of mind, he
pulled out the other and fred. The tiger
bounded on q few yards and then dropped
dead.
CaIlnet told me of this himself He was
very badly wounded and is still dreadfully

Mir. Young Of the civil service heard
that o tiger had forced his way into ma

man owner. Mr.. Young mounted the roof
and effected an entrance.
The tiger charged. He fred both bar

his attendant, but the fellow had bolted.
The tiger was close up, and Mr.. Young.

in front of his head. The beast sprang,
seized the barrel in his mouth and then

A STARTLING EXPERIENCE.
Scared by His Own Face, Which Was Re-

My heart stood still. Some one was

hall was dark, and the hotel was silent as

what to do. Ny heart was humping
against my ribs like a sledge hammer. I
busted myself with the bills until I could
collect my thoughts and decide on a course
of action. Without raising my head ]
turned myeyes toward the transom. This
time no face was visible. l quietly drew
my revolver from my hip pocket and slip
ped the bills into it's place, and then once
more raised my head and squarely faced
the transom, which was turned at an an
gle of about 45 degrees.

rectly at me There could be no mistake
about it,. Some one had followed me,
watched. me count the money and was
about to rob, perhaps murder, me in my
sleep. l was just in the act of raising my
revolver and discharging itwhen l discov-

THE DAINTY PARlSIENNE.
A Creature Gifted With All the Super.

1.-THE ParisienneS are born comedians"
said an author of the last century, and
this is the description he gives OF a true
Persistence: To be or to become {: Parish
enne woman must be a gorlnand, ca
PRECIOUS, ambitious and a coquette. She
begins to live only toward evening. At
~ She Is at her zenith. She knows moth
ing, not even how to make a cup of tea,
but she serves her sickly beverage with so
much grace and her Sevres cups are SO
transparent and SO exquisite that you love
it and love her.
When the Parisienne gives a dinner
party, she thinks of the flowers and the
fruit and leaves the Ssst to her cook, SO
sure is she to mend a lHSl dish with a bon
mot Her beauty, wslch is problematic
and has nothing to do with the type pre-
ferred by the sculptor, lasts her quarter
of century, this because the beauty Of
the Parisienne is the beaute du diable, and
the devil never gets old. She knows how
to sit, to get up, to kneel, how to do ev-
erything, for she never forgets her role and
is always ON the stage. She has studied
herself in all positions, full face, side face
and three quarter face and she knows
what she can do without losing an inch Of
her charm and when to stop in time.
If she has wisp OF hair moving about,
or dangling on her forehead, Or sticking
up above her coils, do not say, I beg your
pardon, madame, your hair is out OF Or
der,'' for this wisp has been studied and
arranged and where it is and how it dan
giles it is meant to be and to dangle. On
her face is the suggestion Of all beauties,
but none is perfect. She reflects the
white snow of the north and the sun rays
of the south. She has the quiet eye of the
American and the dreamy look of the Rus
sian. She is clean and dainty like the
English, as lively as gypsy of Seville or
a Florentine signora. All is hers, wit,
charm, artistic coquetry, easiness of man
ners, kindne and mischievousness. Eli
ther as a-auchess, 1nilliner, actress, circus
rider, tanner of beasts or of men, she is
always the Parisienne and always has
been, a creature stamped at her birth by an
angel and by a devil, both OF them having
left their seal on her.

SUICIDES PAWN TICKETS.
Brokers Commonly Reckon Them as Part
of Their Assured Profits.

Erokers Commonly Reckon Them as Part
of Their Assured Profits.
The fact that pawnbroilcrs probably
make larger profits on the money they III
vest than any other business led the Char
ity Organization society Of New York to
establish mont de piete of its own for
the purpose of making loans to poor per
SONS at reasonable rates Of interest. 1t has
not been great success. There are less red
tape and exasperating questioning at the
professional pawnbroaers', and therefore
poor folks prefer to tra''cc with them. The
pawnbrokers' plea " ways been that
when the cost of Storage is cCsdcd to the
loss sustained throu N uDrcdeeIned pledges
but little is left to them of the "a per cent
year which the law permits them to ex
act.
That part Of their plea relating to unre-
deemed pledges is merely a blind to hide
their real profits Isaac Simpson, who by
the same token is the original of the II
original Simpsons in the pawnbroking
trade in this city, said to the reporter:
My rule in life is never to tell a lie.
What make in my business is no ones
business but my own. Yet if any man in
my line says unredeemed pledges are not
the chief source of profit then he is liar.
Yes, that suicide i'll whose pockets were
yesterday found Is pawn tickets said
Mr.. Simpson, made tho man who issued
them just that much richer. A suicide
without pawn tickets on his person is such
a rarity that we have cCme to credit about
Is per cent to that source. When the pa
pers report that a suicide had pawn tickets,
an agent of the Associated pawnbroke1s
learns and reports by whom they were is
sued. Such pledges are seldom redeemed.
Another curious fact about our business is
that the chance is about one in ten that a
pledge will be redeemed after the ticket
has passed from first hands. They seem
to anticipate trouble if they offer to re-
deem pledge other than their own. So,
you see, the pawn broker is about the only
one that gets richer by men killing them
selves. New York Advertiser.

sOuRCE OF THE MISSOURI.
Six Considerable Rivers Joined Together
Form Its Actual Head.


Form Its Actual Head.
The actual head of the Missouri river, or
what sho,. Id be known as such had it been
inteiligently named, is De Lacy's or Sho-
shone lake, in the National park. This
lake, {; considerable body Of water, is the
source Of the Madison river and forms
with the river the drainage outlet for most
Of the waters Of that portion Of the Ma
tional park. The Gallatin, or left source
of the Missouri is formed by two streams,
the East and West Gallatin, which unite
about a mile above its junction with the
Missouri. The Madison and Gallatin are
both somewhat smaller than tho jefferson.
Had Lewis and Clark assembled the Mad
ison instead Of the jefferson, which, be-
ing the larger stream, they naturally mis-
took for the continuation Of the Missouri,
they would have discovered the famous
geyscrs in Firehole basin, Shoshone lake
and all the country which is now incof
por.. ted within the limits of the National
park. The Big Hole and the Beaverhead
rivers flow into the jefferson at Twin
Bridges, few miles from the confluence
of the Jefferson with the Missouri, SO that
in reality there are six considerable rivers,
all joining one another within a radius of
a few miles, which unite to form the Ion
gest river in the world, measured from the
gulf to the Rocky mountains. Bozeman
