A BULL STORY.

Fight to the Death Between Buffaloes. The buffalo herd had so far reverted to the native state that the old bull ruled for several years, much as he would have done on the plains. He was
 what the keeper called mot q bad boss" that is. he was not malicious in his tyranny. One of the younger bulls made an attempt to resist him once, and had to be punished. The youngster ney- CT forgot or forgave him, and year or so later, feeling himself growing in strength, he decided to risk it again. He advanced toward the leader, John L,' and shook his head up and down two or three times, in the style recog
 nized among buffalo as challenge. The big fellow was surprised no doubt. He gave warning shake, but the other would not take warming Both charged
 But, to the old bulls amazenent, the young one did not go down. What he lacked in weight he more than made up In agility. Both went at it again, now desperately. After two or three of these terrific shocks the old one realized that he had not his old-time strength and wind. As they paused and parried, the young bull managed to get under the other, and with a tremendous heave ac- tually pitched his huge body up into the air and dashed him down the hillside
 Three times the old bull was thus thrown before he would yield, and then he sought to save his life by flight But they were not now on the open plains; the pen was limited, and the victor was of a most ferocious temper The keep CTS did what they could but stout ropes and fences interposed were no better thu straws. The old bulls body was at last left on the ground with sixty-three gashes and his son reigned in his stead. This is one of the melancholy sides of animal life-the weak to the wall, the aged downed by the young. It has hap
 pened millions of times on the plains, but perhaps was never before so exact ly rendered for human eyes to see,--E. Seton-T Thompson in the May Century"

replies by fulfilling his will, and the sea l foamS as they swoop round each other 1 in complicated evolutions, or scatter be- yond the horison's rim to seek the com mon enemy. It is the triumph of disel-
 pline, organization and power under | command.
 As it is in the navy, so it is In the mercantile marine. Here is vessel of capacity greater than that costly ex- | pertinent born out of due time, the | Great Eastern. Her lines are altogeth- CT lovely, curves of beauty uneXcelled by any yacht afloat. With such perfect | grace does she sit upon the sea that the mere mention of her size conveys of it no conviction. Her decks are crowded | with landward folk, for whose benefit naval architects and engineers have been busy devising ways and means ot bridging the Atlantic. Every comfort and convenience for the poor, every lux ury for the rich, is there. MajeStically at the stroke of the hour, she moves, commences her journey. Amid all the bubbub of parting friends, the agony of breaking up home bonds, the placid conductors of this floating city attend to 
 scheduled time from port to port across the trackless, unheeding ocean all this multitude of units, each volume of history in himself or herself of most poignant interest could it be unfolded. And oh the sinuous grace, the persist ent speed, the copartnership of affinity held between mans newest and Gods oldest work. It's romance is beyond all power of speech to describe. Silent. speeches. marvel only can be rendered unto it. The very regularity and order which prevail, the way in which arri- vals may be counted on, these are of fences in the eyes of some Would-be de- lenders of romance. They are not ap- parently offended at the unerring regu- larity of natural phenomena. How is it that the same quality manifested by mans handiwork in relation to the mu- table sea gives occasion of stumbling? A hard question. Not that the mere regularity alone is worthy of admira- tion, but the triumph of mind over mat ter, manifested as much in the grimiest little tug crouching behind a stormbeat- ell headland watching, spiderlike for a homeward bound sailing ship, or in the under engined Swak bellied tramp creeping stolidly homeward bearing her quota of provision for a needless people who would starve without her, is every where to be held in admiration as fra grant with true romance, the undying romance of the sea.--F. T. Bullen in the Spectator.

Eskimos, away north of the Moravan stations who are still in a condition of \ lheathenism, Owing to insufficient means, the brethren are unable to plant l missions among them, although very l desirous of doing so. They are scat l tered over five hundred miles of coast | line, stretching north from Ramah, the most northern of the MoraVian stations, | the region being bleak, barren and des- l olate in the extreme. Canon Pilot gives a most interesting account of these Es- | kimoS. He describes them as being tall,
 as the average of white men and of broad and heavy build-some over six 1 feet, and the average height five feet six | inches. The women are short and stout. They live chiefly on seal meat, whale,
 porpoise and fish Cooking is unknown
 among them; all their meat is eaten raw The skin of the cariboo furnishes clothing. They are a jovial good-na- | tured race. Their wants are few, and | they exchange their furs and other | spells of the chase for ammunition, to- 1 bacco, knives, iron, tea, sugar Sc. In summer they live in tents made of seal skin. in winter in small circular snow houses. The women marry early, gene rally at fourteen or fifteen. As rule, a man has as many wives as he can sup | port by his hunt These ESkimos nev- CT onflict corporal punishment on their
 children, who, without it, easily learn to obey and respect their parents and eld-
 CTS The dead are placed in sitting
 posture, with the knees drawn tightly l1,t, and tla rho1 yxyit !, deer or sealskins The body is placed
 on the bare rock, and covered with stones to prevent the birds and anil mals getting at it. There is no other ceremony"
 As to their religious ideas, they have some conception of a supreme being
 and believe in a future state similar to
 that in which they live. Every inani-
 mate and animate object is believed to
 have a spirit. Some. spirits are benefi-
 cent, others malignant; the latter to be
 appeased by gifts. The chief of all the
 spirits is their god, "TorndacS," who only holds converse with mankind
 through his priest the Angekok. This
 god dwells in the midst of the ice and
 appears in the shape of a huge walrus
 
 shape of man." They conciliate this
 god by offerings of tid-bits of the seal,
 which they leave on the rocks for his
 consumption, and are supposed to bring
 them good luck in hunting and ward off sickness. They wear amulets and charms. The Angekok, or priest of Tor
 ugak, has great power over them, and acts as doctor in cases of illness, to ex- pei the evil spirit, which causes the sickness. Canon Pilot pleads earnestly for these outcast heathen and urges the formation of fund to send missionaries among then.-St. Johns (N. F.) Letter to the Montreal Gazette.

SHANGHAI, August 19.-The allies
reached Picking August 18th, unopposed
all the hostile element having escaped
from the city. The allies met a friendly
welcome from Prince Ching. The I'm
perial court, accompanied by Prince
Tuan, who is LEADING the Manchu troops
left the capital the previous Saturday
for Shanghai. Sheung Kang vi, former
ly Grand Secretary of the Imperial
Court with Generals Tung Fuh Slang
are going toward the southwest, with
the object of diverting the allies in their
pursuit of the Imperial Court. The tele-
graph lines are working badly to Taku
while the Fhoo cable is not yet ready
If the report that the Empress Dowager
is with the fleeing Manchus proves cor
rect the situation of the commanders of
the allies at Peking will prove most en-
barrassing, and it will be useless to
negotiate with Ii Hung Chang or any
other subordinate official, for as long as
the Empress is at a safe distance she
can issue her own edicts.
The Empress Dowager beheaded
twelve Imperial clansmen who refused
to leave the capital and who were sus-
pected of favoring the foreigners. The
personal property which the Empress
took away filled sixty carts. The re-
tinue went on foot. owing to the hurried
advance of the allies. The Governor of
Shansi province has gone to the from
tier to meet the Empress.
The Chinese report heavy losses in
the fighting between Tientsin and Pc
king. General Ii Ping Heng, who was
wounded at Pei-Tsang, died next day.
General Ma was dangerously wound
ed at Tung Chow, where General Chen
TIE Lin and Chang Chang Fo, COM
manding the Chinese vanguard, were
killed.
The Chinese are also circulating a
story that the Legation guards, their
bullets gone, fired shots made from sill
