ing description of a camel fight Is
supplied by an eyewitness:
i have seen strange combats be-
tween animals in many lands, but
none more remarkable than one I
,hanced to light upon in the holy city
of Kairwan, in Tunisia. If the Arabs
were like the Spaniards and South
Americans they would certainly go in
for camel-fghting as regular sport.
Even cock-fighting is not an exhibit
ton of greater pugnacity, and the trial
Of strength between camels is natural
ly o. far larger scale. The Arabs,
however. do not approve of camel
fighting; firstly, because they are not
a cruel race, and secondly, because the
event invariably means the loss of one
valuable animal-if not two. Once two
camels have begun to fight in real
earnest it is impossible to part them
before one ut least has been killed.
The cause is generally jealousy. But
though the Arabs do not approve of
the fight, the sight is not one to be
missed, and they quickly gather in
great crowds. The camels begin by
lowering their long necls, and bend
ing down like bulls about to rush.
Their object is both to bite and to
charge. A camers bite is usually made
only with his lips, but these are of
such exceeding strength that they can
infict very serious wounds. The i'm
portant point In a camel-fght is for
one beast to get his antagonist down,
either by tripping him. breaking bis
legs, or by some other judicious apph-
cation of science. This done, the next
thing is to pummel him to death with
the cushion-like feet, which are like
the hardest boxing-gloves ever toler-
Rted in a prize-fght.-Golden Days.

SERVES AS A CLOCK.
kansas Farmer Has n bantam Roost-
err That Ii as Reliable ns Any
Tlmepiece.

Dennis Keefe, who lives three miles
southeast of Newton, Kan, has n three
year-old bantam rooster which, In one
direction at least, shows more than
human intelligence. Every day, exact
ly at 1880 o'clock, IL comes in from
the fields, leaving the other chickens
behind it, and pecks on the kitchen
door until it is admitted, repeating
the performance at six o'clock every
evening. 1t never fails to be on time
and is quite as accurate as the kitchen
clock. In fact, Mr.. Keefe says he
could get along fairly well without
any timcpiece simply 10y watching the

seeded to make the figure recite
verses, crack jokes and sing songs in
the most approved manner of a pro-
fessional. 1 was utterly bewildered,
until the explanation came where |
had least looked for tour dummy,
uDgainly in form and bullying with
straw, suddenly rose and walked from
the platform.
The effect was tremendous; for n
moment 1T seemed as though we, in
the audience, could not believe it
that the dummy had been n real live
boy all the while, and not one of us
had guessed it. Then we rose in BODY
and, amid storm of applause, sur
rounded the clever ventriloquist and
his Iccomplice.
Invent into the dressing-room after
1t was all over and helped take the
dummy apart; so L can give a pretty
accurate account of how he was made
mp. In the first place, the boy was
enveloped in a suit of clothes very
much too large for him, and the ex.
ira space was filled in with straw.
The ends of the trousers and of the
arms were gathered together and held
with Irvine. A large pair of shoes fas-
Sened at different angles made feet
which seemed utterly lifeless, aud
gloves stuffed with cotton took the
place of hands.
A false face cleveriy constructed
covered the face, and a red handker-
chief and large derby completed the
deception.
The false face was made from a
piece of cardboard about eight inches
long and seven inches wide, ben. into
semicircle. The eyes, nose and
meuth were painted in with ink. If
desired, the jaw could be easily made
90 work up and down. In this case.
the lower part of the face must be
covered with some dark material,
30 that 1t will not show when the
mouth opens.
1t is not difficult to acquire a
small amount of skill in Disgusting
the voice, and, If the attention of
the audience Is attracted in O certain
direction, 1t is very ready to believe
the sound comes from that direction.
A boy lying down in the room over
head is sure moons OF making a
goiee come from that direction.
The success Of the dummy win be
assured If IL is properly brought in.
The boy must remain perfectly limp,
and handle as little as possible like
living thing.-Boston Globe.

bantam. 1t was the only chick
Matched out ola setting by a hen of
ordinary size, which promptly de-
serted its Insignificant offspring. Mr..
Keefe then took the forlorn chick into
the house and raised it by hand, feed
Ing it daily at 1890 and o'clock.
Once, after it had grown up and was
running about the yard, he forgot to
feed it. 1t promptly let its wants be
known by pecking on the kitchen door.
Since then it has never failed to make
its calls twice a day, and always at
exactly the same hour.

The Victim Put Where Her Story of 1t
Was Taken for Insane Talk.
In the month OF December last an
elegantly dressed man presented him
self 10 the governor of the district in
which the City of Mexico is situated,
and solicited the admiitance OF his
aunt, n Indy whose name he said was
Mrs Aurelia Granados de Jaimes, into
the insane asylum for women in Canoa
street. He said that she had lost her
mind and that, as there was no one at
that some accident might happen to
her. The governor issued the permit
and the lady was admitted into the
hospital,
The lady was not violently crazy,
but she complained to the doctors of
pain in her head and she was con
stantly saying that man had driven
nail into her head. The attendants
OF the asylum paid no attention to this
statement, as it was thought TO be a
part OF her rawlings.
The lady gradually got worse aud
on recent Sunday she died.
DIR. Alberto Lol ez Hermosa, director
of the asylum, and DIR. Francisco dc
j. Echeverria, assistant director, Le-
lieying that the lady's case had been a
peculiar one, examined her craninm
after death and made sort of prelim-
mary autopsy. To their astonishment
they found in the region of the right
temple the head of steel wire nail,
which proved TO be about eight cent?
metres IN length. The flesh had
almost cicatrized over the nails head
and the latter was hardly visible.
The doctors Immediately informed
the governor and the judicial authori.
ties. An investigation has been started
of which the immediate object is tc
find the man who first brought the lady
to the governor. The lady apparently
was about 35 years of age

Mail Shirt of n Dervlsh Warrior.

The shirt is made OF rings, every
ring from piece of steel wire II
inches long and about one.sixteenth
of an inch thick. Tho on6s of the
piecc of wire are nattened out, holes
are punched through them, one end is
turned on to the other, and they arc
fastened together by q small rivet.
Every ring connects four others. The
wire differs somewhat in thickness,
not by design seemingly so as to make
one part OF the shirt stronger than an
other, but from material of Uniform
thickness running short. In parts
where the rings are free to jingle
together they are worn very thin.
Round the neck ia band Of three
thicknesses OF red leather, stiff like
the stock worn formerly in our army;
it is "a inches high, and on the out
side is decorated with ornamental lines
like toolings made by bookbinder.
