4 Much.ROhbed Stage.COach.

There is to-day in Phoenix, Arizona,
stage-coach that has been held mp
and robbed oftener than any other in
existence. 1t has seen its best days,
and now stands dismantled and dilapi-
dated in the back yard of n livery
stable, but could it talk, many are the
tales it could tell of brigandage that
would lay the exploits OF Claude Du-
val in their shadow.
1t began running i'll the seventies
between Prescott and Tombstone, and
has actually been robbed eighty-threo
times. Eight drivers and as many ex-
press messengers have been killed
from its box, and as passengers in
those days went armed to defend
themselves and property, not few
fatalities have occurred among them
and the brigands. 1t was originally a
handsome Concord coach, pulled by
eight mules, and cost $500 at Tucson,
but its sides are now split by rife and
pistol bullets, and in more than ono
place the leather lining shows the
wild stroke of bowie knife. Los

lack-lustre eyes; the iron-brown skin
is spotted with black and thickly
covered with small tubercles; the tail
is compressed from side to side, and
the only relief in the dull scheme of
color is formed by the pearly-white
tips of the digits, of which there are
four on the front and five on the him
der limbs.
This animal lives in Il large tank on
the right, just as one enters the rep
tile house in the Geological Gardens.
On the top of the water Is thick
floating layer of crystal worts, which
shuts out the entrance of light from
above, though it fulflls the useful
purpose of aerating the water and
keeping it in good condition by ab-
sorbing the carbon dioxide given off
by the animal in breathing. At the
bottom, and generally right at the
back is its favorite position. 1t does
not court observation; indeed, the
pebbles on the floor of the tank are so
often heaped up into a kind of ridge
against the glass in front, while the
salamander lies, so to speak, under
their lee, motionless and almost out of
sight, that it would seem rs if it re-
scented intrusion on its privacy
Feeding time in the reptile house
presents by no means the lively scene
that it does in the lion house or the
bears cages. No barrow is wheeled
down the line of dens, and very few of
the creatures show any signs of eX-
citement. Some of the larger lizards
may raise themselves on their hind
legs, and, untaught by experience, fu-
tilely strive TO climb up the glass
which keeps them prisoners. The
other inmates Of the house are as quiet
as ever. The salamander at the back
of his tank is not reused by the keeper s
football, but no sooner is n space
cleared in the floating mass of vegeta-
ton and a frog or a small fish dropped
into the water than amnrvelous change
takes place in the salamander. 1t is
no longer dull, sluggish and loglikc,
but is reused to a display of activity
one would never expect from its clumsy
build and lethargic habit, This lasts
for moment only, and then it sub
sides into its accustomed motionlcs9
condition. But, almost before the
prey can reach the bottom, one SWEEP
of the powerful tail brings the sala
mauder close to it, there is q snap OF
the heavy jaws, and the frog or fist
disappears. Occasionally - for the
creature is old and sightless-a bright
stream of ascending air bubbles shows
that the prey has escaped for mo
ment. The respite, however, is very
brief; a second snap settles the bust
ness, and the salamander rctires to tn,
back of his tank for al after-dinnel
nap.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
Teapot.

The game Teapot may be made
very funny. One player goes out Of
the room while the others decide upon
a word. When the one outside re-
turns, the others make sentences about
the word chosen, but instead of saying
it use the word teapot each time. For
instance the word vane is selected.
One says, 81 saw teapot on stable
this morning" The next one says,
81 saw the teapot on Fred's forehead. :"
And the third remarks, II hate teapot
girls" When the player guesses the
word, the one from whom the inROr-
nation was CLEANED must take his place
outside. -NeW York Sun.

The Clint SaIamander.

The giant salamander, says the Lon
don Sketch, is the largest living spe-
cies of the class Amphibia, and so JUS
titles its claim to its specific name. 1t
is native of Japan and Thibet and
belongs to the same order Of amphibi-
ans rs the common newt of our Eng
Iish ponds and bitches, from which,
however, it differs greatly in habit,
being entirely aquatic. The gills are
absorbed when the animal becomes
mature, and the gill Sits close up,
though in nearly related American
form these Sits persist throughout life.
1t will be seen from the illustration,
which represents the animal from two
points of view, that the giant salaman-
der is not handsome; indeed, any of
our British nevis is "a very fairy prince
by comparison. tits decidedly plain, "

Boys Sports In Germany.

There is scarcely a boy who would
believe that any one could be as pre-
else, as accurate, in swimming exercises
as in drilling with guns on land. And
yet it has been shown that this is prac-
tically true, and in Germany the swim
ming associations of the empire have
proved it.
These associations all belong to one
great swimming organization, which
has q swimming tournament every
year. Prizes are given for certain
events, just as for the different events
in track athletics in this country. And
the week which is devoted to this CON
test is the most important in the swim
mer's year.
Strangely enough, German boys do
not have the baseball, football, lacrosse
and other games we have in America,
and hence the games they play are
quite strange to us. This swimming
tournament is one of them, and it is
really a wonderful affair. There are
certain events, such as diving from a
certain height, turning one of two
somersaults while falling through the
air, turning sideways once or twice or
even three times and diving ont GER
