The English Patent once Library.

If the poor inventor is not entirely ignorant of patent procedure, he knows that the~patent office makes no search to test. the validity of his invention, and so he comes to, undertake it himself. If he finds that his invention appears in no previous patent, he is confirmed in his belief that he will at last see his dreams realized and that he will in 8 short time possess great wealth. If, on the other hand, he finds his ideas have been anticipated, his dreams of fortune fade away like mist before a morning sun, and life. as he has known it for so many weary years-hard, toilsome, pit Hess to those who, like himself, lack money-lies painfully clear before his view.
 A short three hours-or even less spent i'll this library may plunge the man who entered it hopeful and bright into deepest despair, and it is certain that within its walls many silent trage- dies of this, kind are enacted week by week and noticed by only few if any of those around. But inventors are hope full race, and though some who suffer such 8 disappointment of all their hopes may never recover from it there is no doubt many recommence their experi- ments and elaborate otiier inventions from which they expect the same, or even greater, realities of wealth and happiness.-Chamb Journal.

TIGER AND BULL.

A Fierce Battle, In Which the Tiger w.s
 BadIy Beaten.
 The Paris letter oS the London Post gives details of an extraordinary enter tainment given at the Plaza de Madrid in the presence of l. 800 spectators. This was a combat between 8 royal Bengal tiger and an Andalusian fighting bull. The tiger, Cesar, was full grown brute belonging to Spessardi, the train CT, who had never been able to do any thing with it and had, indeed, once nearly fallen q victim to it's ferocity. He sold it for 6, 900 francs to the director of the plaza.
 A cage l7 yards square by I in height had been erected in the middle of the arena. and the animals were brought on in vans. the bull being the first to be released into the inclosure. The brute immediately began to run round and round his prison, believing and throw ing up sand and gravel with his hoofs.
 The instant the tiger entered the cage he gave a roar and bounded on the bull, avoiding the horns, and fixed on his Hanks and belly with both teeth and claws The bull remained still for 8
  ing backward to the ground. The spec tators thought that all was over, but the tiger let go for 8 second to take an- other hold. and in the brief interval was kicked over by the wild 'plunges of the bulli Before the tiger had time to recover the bull was on him, and, sink ing his horns into the striped hide, it tossed the tiger into the air This was repeated four or five times, the bull varying his tactics occasionally by bang ing his adversary against. the bars. When the bull stopped, the tiger lay limp on the ground, and the crowd, thinking he was dead. cried Bravo. toror' r..t. .--. +r. ' ' '''<f+
 The;.,bu stood stamping for a mo- ment in the middle of the cage, and then, seeing the tiger did not move ap- preached and smelled him, But Cesar was only shamming death and seized the bulls muzzle in his powerful jaws so the animal could not move. Eyentu- ally. however, he was released, and aft CT stamping furiously on the tiger again caught him on his horns. This time the tossing. stamping and banging appar- ently really ended in Cesar's dtath. The cage was then opened. and the bull rushed out and back to his stable. For precaution's sake the tigers van was brought up. and, to the general sur- prise, Cesar rose to his feet, glanced round as if afraid the bull was still there, and then bounded into the van. The tiger wasa found to have five ribs broken. besides having a number of wounds from the bulls horns. It is said that all wild animals-beafs. lions. partners and tigers-fare badly in com bat with the. Spanish fighting Lull.

 The foregoing statement. which Is cal. culated tU arUuke the iucredEliIy uf the average individual, was made recently by George J. Charlton. assistant general passeuRer and ticket agent of the Chi cago and Alton ruilroad
 "JuSt let me give you few facts to prove that assertion. continued MT. Charlton. "The cost of the average passenger car today Is from St, 000 to e7. 900.

A government secret service offlcer who acted as member of the minister's escort from Washington to the Canadian border, says that no dis courteous act was committed by any one the entire trip, and not an impolite word was spoken to Senor Polo by anybody.
