QUEEN VICTORIA.
Many a Subject Might Learn OF Her
Lesson In (;entleness.

Many Subject Might Learn of Her q
Lesson In Gentleness.
When the queen was a young girl,
one of her chief characteristics was a
certain imperiousness Of disposition.
Her word was law, and as distin-
guished officer, whom must not name,
once declared on leaving her after an
official interview: THE queen did love
to be mistress" 1t is most lovable
trait in her majesty's nature that with
increasing years mildness of manner
and most considerate thoughtfulness
for others have superseded the auster-
ity of her younger days. She is
indeed more inclined to err on
the side of indulgence than Of
sternncss. "Havc it your own way,
dear" she will sometimes say in grand
mothcrly discussion with one of the
Battenberg babies. With her personal
attendants the queen is equally gentle.
The queen never by any chanca shows
haughtiness to a dependent.
Not long ago an Irish nurse. in chasge
of some little friends of the duke Of
Conuaught's children, went to tea
nursery tea. of course) at Osborne.
The IrisX nurse, a most naive creature,
when the queen unexpectedly entered
the nursery, went down on her knees,
after making profound courtesy, and
when her majesty very nicely addressed
various questions to her, replied gran
diloquently: "Yes, o Queen" No. q
Queen." and commenced giving her a
long account of her home and rela.
tions in Ireland. The queen was posi-
lively convulsed with laughter, which,
turning away, she tried in vain to hide.
Her sense of humor is at all times
keen. Once in crowd poor man,
gazing at her and Prince Albert as
they passed by, began to laugh irre-
sistably; but there was no sort of Of
fcnse in the laughter. The queen
joined in, declaring she could not help
herself. The more her humble sub.
ject laughed, the more she enjoyed the
fun, and wonders to this day what was
the secret of his t.-Woman
at Home.

The Tiger Was Arrested.

The recent escape and recapture of
the tiger at the Karachi Public gar
dens recalls similar incident which
occurred few years ago at Lamore.
Mott, the late celebrated occupant of
the tigers quarters at the Zoo, finding
himself at liberty one morning, left the
gardens and strolled on to the Mall, of
which he was shortly in sole posses.
sion. His keeper meantime hurried up
to government house to report his
charges breach of rule, and get war;
rant for his arrest. A horrifed secre-
tary flung him the first sealed docu-
ment that came to hand, and the
keeper, strong in the authority of the
royal arms, and meeting the tiger at
the gates displayed his warrant, tied
his pugrce round the animals neck,
and marched him back to his cage, re-
preaching him loudly on his way for
his ingratitude to the sircar that had
housed and fed him for SO many years.
Like his Karachi brother, Mott had
been reared in captivity, and readily
gave up his liberty for his old home
