From the New York Sun.
Like their cOuntrymen in Havana, in
habtants of the Spanish capital, amidst
all the melancholy and misery Of their
present situation, do not for moment
forget their favorite sport, the bull hight.
new feature was recently introduced at
one of these, which consisted in the COM
bat between a royal Bengal tiger and
an Andalusian bull; the tiger. who, in
view of the actual embrogilo with the
United States, promptly received the dis
tinction of being designated "El Ameri-
cano," being full-grown animal, known
for its ferocity
A cage, seventy yards square by four in
hight, had been erected in the middle Of
the plaza the bull being the first TO be
let into the inclosure. He Immediately
began to run around his prison, believing
and throwing up sand and gravel with
his hoofs. The instant the tiger entered
the cage the great cat gave roar and
bounded on the bull, avoiding the horns,
and fixed on his flank and belly with both
teeth and claws. The bull remained para
lyzed for few seconds and then seemed
TO be sinking backward to the ground.
The tiger, however loosened his grip for
second to take another hold. In vain,
for in the brief interval he was hurled
TO earth by the wild plunges of the bull.
Before the tiger had time to recover the
bull was on him, and, plunging his horns
In the tough hide tossed his adversary
into the air. This was repeated four or
five times, the bull varying his tactics
occasionally by crushing the tiger against
the bars of the cage. When the bull de-
sisted the tiger lay limp on the ground,
and the crowd, thinking he was dead,
cried Bravo, toror
The bull stood stamping for a moment
In the middle of the inclosure, and then,
seeing that the tiger did not move, APP
preached and smelt his foe, who was only
shamming death, and seized the bulls
muzzle in his powerful jaws, so that the
Andalusian could not move. Eventually,
however, the bun was released, and, after
stamping furiously on the tiger, again

At The opening Of the morning session of
Circuit Court at Ocala Friday, the IA
NOUS embezzlcment cases OF the Anglo
american Phosphate Company vs.. A. Tnal-
helm were called, and the judge demanded
that some disposition be made Of them.
Mir. Thalheim and his attorney, e. W.
Davis were present, and ready for trial
The motion of the plaintiff to continue the
case to the next term was not entertained
and, after some argument by the counsel,
the case was dismissed. This is considered
a final disposition of these cases, that have
been hanging in the courts for over two
years. The next important case IS the Dr.
Fooshee murder trial. The grand jury has
returned true bill
Capt Sandberg, of the schooner Ada b.

Sable, with a CHASTITY passenger on board,
the dead body of a negro named Robert
Sands, who went from Key West to work
at Cape Sable. Six witnesses who were a /
Care Sable at the supposed time Of the
murder testified that the deceased had
fought and whipped three colored men in
a rough-anG-tumble fight on Saturday and
that the deceased evidently expected fur
Their trouble with them that evening, from
the fact that he had his gun with him, and
from the further fact that he was walk
Ing so close to the waters edge, apparent

tossing, stamping ard barging apparently
ended IN the tigers destruction. The cage
was opened and the bull rushed ont, back
to his stable. For precaution's sake, the
tigers van was brought up, and. 10 the
general surprise ana amusement OF the
spectators, he rose to his feet, glanced
around as IL afraid the bull was still
there, and then bounded into the van.
The tiger was found 70 have five ribs
broken, besides having a number of
wounds from the bulls horns. He is ex-
pected to survive. To many the fate of

From the New York Herald.
The constant habit of smoking pipes has
a perceptible effect upon the face. The
pressure of the lips to hold the pipe In
position increases their curvature round
the stem, and the muscles become more
rigid here than in other parts. Thus. says
Tit Bits. the lips at a certain point be-
come stronger, and the pipe is uncon-
sciously held in the same habitual posi-
ton.
After long continuation of the habit
small circular wrinkles form parallel with
the curvature of the lips around the stem.
These are crossed by finer lines. caused
by the pressure of the lips to retain the
stem in position
In the case of old men who have smok-
ed a pipe for years the effect upon the
lips is very marked, not only altering the
form of the lips but of one entire side of
the face. causing the wrinkles that are
the effect OF age to deepen, and, instead
of following the natural course of facial
wrinkles, to change their course so as to
radiate from the part of the mouth where
the pipe is habitually carried
Furthermore one or both lips often pro-
trude. just like the lips of people who
have sucked their thumbs when children.
The effects OF pipe smoking upon the
teeth are considerable. At the point where
the smoker usually holds the stem be-
tween his teeth The latter become much
worn

many Cuban refugees and nearly all of
them favor annexing the island to the
United States. Many of them were ban
ished from the island a year ago by the
Spaniards and they confidently expect to
return soon.
Dr. Francisco Pla, one of the most
prominent refugees in town, said tonight
Il have always believed that annexation
meant the salvation of Cuba, and while
the vast majority of native Cubans favor
an independent government, there are
great numbers who are for annexation"

ficulty in its acceptance was the limitation
of this intelligence to a narrow class of
actions outside which this astonishingy
brilliant intellect ceased to work at ALL
and the absence of any evidence beyond
that set Of acts to show the possession of
thought.
This absence of evidence of any thought
originating and directing the work of So
cial insects led also to an exactly opposle
conclusion. The actions performed de-
manded so much mental power, and the
evidence of mental action was so slight,
and our powers of apprehending functions
so aloof from our sensations so limited,
that the whole of their complicated life
and actions was set down as purely auto
matte. Every action ascribable to rea-
son, from the making of the hexagOnal
cell of the honey-bee in which the utmost
carrying capacity is obtained with the
lease expenditure of material, to the MAX
ing of "mushroom-be beds" by the parasoi
ants, is thus ascrbed to blind obedience
to inherited instinct or knowledge prior
to experience" In the light of this con-
clusion. the ants which make such admir-
able dwellings and storehouses that they
