Like q Train of Cars.

There is now in the county Jail
at Ann Arbor awaiting a vacancy in
the Pontiac asylum young man
who imagines that he is a train OF
cars. He was brought there from
Milan, and gives his name as Walter
Rogers. He says his home is in
San Francisco, whence he made a
remarkably fast run, often attaining
rate of ninety miles an hour. He
spends nearly all of his time in i'm
itating the noises attendant on the
starting up and stopping of rail.
road train. Every sound and move
ment he produces with startling
fidelity and detail.
When the officer found him he
was on the railroad track, and from
his actions he was just getting up
steam. Soon after he said it was
time to start, ordered the fireman
to fill the tank with water and the
tender with coal, initiating every
act perfectly. Then he pulled the
lever and started the train, running
SO fast that it was necessary, to head
him off with a horse.
His whistle for "down brakes"
can be heard mile. He is about
II years old. It is believed that the
name and address he gives are both
false, and the officers are anxious to
know from what section he comes.

a big Chinese stone jar and let them
fight. The crowd bet on the rat
tlesnake, but they were a long way
of. The inmates of the jar began
to fight at once. The snake grabbed
the tarantula and swallowed him.
While he was doing this the scor-
pion began sticking the snake all
over the body. He wrlthed under
the punishment while the sting
played up and down like lightning.
The snake swelled up, turned black
and died in about ten minutes.
He was very much pulled up and
discolored when he gave up the
ghost and his rattle ceased to play
Then the scorpion attacked the
horned toad, but the little animal
remained fiat and the sting did not
penetrate his hide. Suddenly he
turned around and swallowed the
scorpion, thus becoming master OF

Society has Z new English fad.
Il might be moro properly called .
suggestion Of q fad, for it requires
time to grow, just as an acorn re-
ouires time to become an 'oak.
When the Duke Of York was mar
RED 4 loyal subject planted an
acorn. The loyal subject assidu-
ously cultivated the tiny sprig
which presently appeared above
ground. When the son of the Duke
of York was born the loya! subject
presented his tiny oak to the infant
Prince, in behalf of whom it was re-
ceived most graciously. It was
planted at Sandingham and is the
chief pride and care of the head
gardener. A new leaf on that oak
is second in Importance only to q
new tooth in the future Kings head.
It is the court fashion for royalty
aud nobility to inquire frequently
as to the growth of the little tree,
and it is esteemed a high privilege
to see Prince Edwards tiny oak,
the acorns of which will doubtless
be treasured up as souvenirs sever
al hundred years after Prince Ed
ward has been gathered to bis faith
ers. The family tree" idea is
certain to be no less popular in
America than in England, where
the fad has the favor and patronage
Of royalty. The fashion may be
called pretty one, commemorating
anniversaries about which most
family sentiment attaches, the date
of marriage and of the birth of the
first heir, and it carries on in the
future, in q way which it is pleasant
to fancy, its story of a double hap
piness. To plant the acorn on the
date of the wedding, to transplant
and present the tree on the day the
first baby is born-that is the SIM
pie method of the new fad.

5000 and 5000. Last week 800

this side. He will bring over a
bunch every few days until all have
been delivered. The average price
he received for the entire band is
about 81 per head. The horses are
in fine condition and will undoubt-
eddy cut up in juicy steaks. It is al
legged that already rektaurant keep
ers in Portland are serving horse
steaks, although not one can be
found who will admit that he has
done so or will do do so.
