< pecn1isr Accident.

One of the most peculiar, accidents ever heard Of happened to a colored man near Red Deer, Va, a few days ago. Ed Jones took his gun and set out for a day of sport. He was not looking for large game, but he had not been in the woods long before he saw on immense deer coming at a tre- mendops rate of speed immediately to- ward him. He at once fell upon his knees, preparatory to a shot, and when the deer was within twenty feet of him fired and missed his aim. The deer had acquired such tremendous mo- mentum that it could not check itself, and with the next leap landed upon the hunter. It knocked him down and bruised him badly upon the breast with one hind foot the other going into the negro's mouth, knocking out a number of his teeth, tearing a part of his gums away, and passing down his throat, The whole thing was over In an instant but when the daykey came to the deer was gone.

PIGEONS AND THE CHINESE.
How the ceiestiais Make the Birds
 Eagar for CIrcIing.

The Chinese have made pigeon flying the decoying game that it is because they like any kind cf playing foi keeps" s9ys St Nicholas. Even in kite-fying, they fix little hooks to theii kite strings and try to pull in each others kites, and count it far to keel any kite that drops into thei" yards They will tell yeu that kite or strange pigeon that comes tc youi place, if given up, takes away youi family luck So you must tear the kite and keep the pigeon. Hut when you see the town danGies sauntering out with their fans and bird cages to watch the noon kite flying, criticis- ing the floeks and their tactics, and arguing the fine points of decoying, you guess that family luck" has very little to do with their game. To decoy strange pigeons, pigeon keepers must first train their aocks to fly in spir- als, that is, 10 rise steadil. in circles without etfaying far from the home roof. Pigeons naturally fly together in circles. Even wild pigeons wheel duOuJ III hUCk5 DGlUIG SL1dS5iilS Uu lo the fields. Chinese maEe their birds eager for circiing by keeping them shut up in a wicker house built on the ground around the dovecote, aud they cure their birds of struggling by pelt- ing them with pebbles when they try to alfght anywhere except on one spot -the ridge-pole of the roof facing the wicker house. The flock must alight here in a bunch, and immediately walk down to the caves. This is done te bring any strange pigeon among them down within sight of the grain, which is then scattered on the floor of the wicker house. Pigeons are fed only after flying, for unless hungry, they are lazy and unmanageable Their food is millet, sorghum seed or corn. which their keepers use to get as much work from them as possible. When there is much flying and calling down to do. they are usually fed with millet. which is so small that it keeps them eating a long time without filling them At other times their food is sorghum seed. Corn is not very good for pig cons, but they are so fond of it that pigeon keepers usually have it on hand to call them down when they are a1-

 able by Natures Pests.
 From Ainslee's Magazine; South Af- rica exports hides, wool and mohair, and the ranchman would reyel in riches were it not for the various pests that decimate his foeks and herds. The most deadly one is the rinderpest, cattle plague which in the last ten years has been slowly creeping from Central Africa sou5hWard, leaving a wake of whitened bones. In travelling through Natal 1 saw fifty oxen lying dead about spring, so suddenly had the disease attacked them. It was al- most impossible to get an untinged piece of steak at a restaurant, though the proprietor resented any such charge, and q plethorie German travel CT who called out in loud tone for roast rinderpest" in the railroad cafe at De Aar Junction, Cape Colony, had to be picked up in fragments. Dr. Koch and other eminent specialists tried to stop this plague. The country is now recovering from it slowly. Another pest is the tsetse fly, an insect AOaCAhDiiA15 oaI CCInulOI uOGoS Hy5 Due three times as large. It's bite will kill horse, COW or any other domestic animal in about ten days. but, strange to say, does not affect wild animal or human being A less dangerous. but more troublesome, pest is the white ant, which is about one-quarter of an inch long and ubiquitous in many parts of the country. They live under the ground, and can only be routed by killing the queen, which sometimes reaches tke size of one inch in length. This insect is particularly harassing in Rhodesia. At BuluWayo my travelling companion inadvertently left his boots on the floor after turning in at night, and he arose next morning to find the uppers carefully Separated from the soles. Lucky you didn's leave your clothes on the floor, was the hotel= keepers only consolation. These ants will eat through anything but metal, and for that reason much Of the build ing is done with corrugated iron. The anthill is one of the conspicuous 1and= marks in travelling over South Africa.

RTiFICiAL SILK.
Development of the Industry Now
 Going On by Leans.

24ns Oh Dy Leaps.
 The silk worm. with it's #eomparatiye- ly small output, has now rival in artificial silk, and it was to explain the processes by which t.nts is produced that Joseph Cash, chairman of fac tory at Wolston, near Coventry, read paper at the Society of Arts, says the London Mail. Sir T. WardIe presided. Many attempts have been made. said Mir. Cash, to produce a material resem- bling silk, but only recently have they resulted in a commercially successful fabric. The earliest imitation was spun glass, which in it's fexibility and brilliancy is excellent for millinery or dress ties, but it's limitations are soon reached, for it can only be spun cer- tain lengths, and it possesses little or 90 warmth. Polished" cotton, "mer- eerized" cotton and Pandura "stlk, made of gelatin thread, have struggled for recognition in the market, but con- plete victory seems to be reserved to what is known as collodion silk, " pro- duced by the Ghardonne method, which is elaborate. Enormous sums of money it appears had been lost ere the pres ent success was attained two years ago. But now the development of the il- dustry is going on by leaps and bounds in Besaneon, in France and in Switzer- land. The material has an even great CT brilliancy than silk, but the warmth is not so great. It is more durable. however, than the natural silk as known to the ordinary customer.

 A plague Of the octopus is reported at 0stend, and the age-famous oyster beds of that resort are in serious dan ger. This visitation is unusual, for the octopus is usually found in the gulf of
 Mexico, along coast.of= southern California, or in Alaskan waters. Some Of those in the gulf measure as much as twenty-one feet across the body, their arms stretching out infinitely it seems, to their prey. They do not at tack men as rule, but there have been many fierce combats when an unfortun- ate fisherman happened to hook one An iehthyelogist has only lately made a study of small octopus three feet in diameter. 1t was placed in a tank, and the scientist put in one finger Im- mediately one of the eight great feelecs came toward it. followed by the others. These feslers, armed with powerful suckers, attached themselves firmly to the mans finger and hand, and made no further movement until he tried to withdraw it. Then they held all the tighter and the little mouth spouted forth it's inl5y fluid to distance Of two feet. At last he released his hand with an effort and tried to touch the body of the octopus. As he did so it changed colors in rapid succession. passing from black to yellow, and then seemed to be all covered with black spots. Another octopus of the same size was placed in the tank, and then was battle royal. The sixteen arms writhed and twisted, the water was stained black by the elected fluid, and 1t was a thrilling sight ~o behold the entangled feelers, wrapped around each others bodies. After a little the weak CT of the two withdrew his arms, the other released him. and the beaten monster drew himself into corner 10 nur0e his wounds.

Has Secured All Over Europe to Hire
 Soldiers.

Soldiers
 This is the first war Great Britain has fought against white enemies with out buying foreigners to fight for Us, says 8 London paper Until less than b0 years ago, when We had war on hand, we sent officials to Germany and all over Europe, to engage men to fight for Us. The men engaged were most ly old soldiers, and were hired to fight until the war was finished. In 1756 an invasion of England WAS feared, so 5000 Hessians were hired to come and defend these shores against the ex peeted attack These hirelings were paid at the British rate of pay, and for every man of them killed their king was paid so much per head. Even against the American eolonists Hes sian troops were employed. No won- der our fellow Eng glishmen were en- ragged at this shameless action. The landgrave of Hesse was paid $2,355,- GOO in per cent stock for the Hes sians lost in the war of independence. This was the amount of s150 per man. The Irish rebellion of 1798 was put down chiefly by Hessian hirelings. Tn the long struggle with Napoleon we freely hired foreigners, but the bulk of the work was done by British sol diers. Wellington found that he could not rely on his merce6ary gangs too much. In 1894 the Kings German le- zion" of 10000 men was formed. Two years later the force was increased by G.000 men. Besides Germans from all the petty states, there were also en- listed French royalists expelled by Ma poleon, Corsieans, Greeks, Italians. Turks, Portuguese, .Belgians, Hungari- ans and Swiss. At Waterloo, Yelling tons army of 67,O00 was made up Of only 22,000 British, and the rest were Dutch. Brunswickers, Hanoyerians and Nassaumen. When peace came in 1874 there were no less than 29.0Go hired foreigners forming corps in the British army. The Crimean war was the last time Britain had to go a-hiring sol diers. Thirty thousand men had been sent to the Crimea and more were wanted. So the government went to parliament with bill authorizing the enlistment of 10000 Germans, 5000 Swiss and 5000 Italians. at British rates of pay.

ELECTRIC PLANT.
Contract Let for the Erection of Build
ing for the New Electric Light
Plaut.
(From Welncsday's Doily,)

\fEom wednesdays Da1ly.)
General A. Hughes today let the con-
tract for the erection of the building
for the new electric light plant in the
city to H. Z. Rhud. Material is being
taken to the site and the work will
begin in a day of two. The building
will be of brick 35x5O, and fire proof
in every way. 1t will stand just west
of the ice house, and opposite where
the ola freight Office stood. The rail-
road company will put in a spur track
to the plant. The machinery to be
installed will be all new and of the
latest pattern. A 125 horse power
boiler will be installed and a 100 horse
power engine directly connected with
a general electric dynamo, the latest
electrical machinery. All of the new
machinery will be installed before the
machinery is moved down from the
present plant, so there will be no in
terruption in the lighting system.
General Hughes has also let the con-
tract to Glineburg & Lovin for the erec-
ton of a building for the new electric
light plant at Dickinson. This will
be also a modern plant in every re-
spect and workmen will go to Dickin-
son Friday to begin the work.
