ovERcAME GREAT OBSTACLES.
An India Railway That Cost 100000
600 and 5000 Lives.

600 and 6.OOO Lives.
Probably the biggest triumph ever
achieved by the Britons. wrought into
a success after fearful harvest of des-
pair and ruin. is the Sibbi railway, in
India. 1t was a bigger job than any
war that occurred in the country, and
in the first year of its construction 200
lives were lost. The second year saw
the whole trunk work ruined by storm,
snow and a mob of natives, who de-
stroyed the line. Another three
months brought the building to a
standstill through disease and want of
material, and all who were not en-
gagged in the work wanted it stopped
for good Nothing daunted the toilers.
however, and the next year brought
famine and plague-a combination
which killed off 1000 men, and left
the management crippled for want of
hands and officers. The odds were said
to be 200 to l against success; but the
band of workers went stubbornly on,
and before long had all the native
tribes in the neighborhood about their
ears. regiment had to be brought
up to defend the half-made line, all
the workers were armed, and they had
equal spells of fighting and toiling
every day. There were 10000 men
engaged on the business at once.
apart from the military; when. during
the third year, a second visitation Of
fever and draught threatened to effec-
tually fiaish off the last chance Of sue
cess. There was no beating them,
however, and the line was finally COM
pleted and made into brilliant sue
cess, after six years of work at a cost
of s1OO,OOO,OO0, 5000 lives and $1,000
cases Of sickness and wounds.

DIVING FOR PEARLS.

tanned from the oceans bed. They
are found in the shells that were once
the homes of deep-water clans and
other bivalves Fishing for these
precious stones is profitable industry
and some Of the richest fields where
they are found are on the shores Of the
Philippine Islands.
Early in the morning the Sulu or
Viscayan, denuded of attire, propels
his banca, or boat, to the bed and
anchors it with heavy stone. He is
provided with a small but heavy
cuchillo and bag of netting. Drop
ping overheard, he sinks rapidly by
the aid of lump of raw copper. This
is prevented from being lost by rope,
and as the waters are transparent the
actions Of the divers can be easily
seen. They are experts in aquatic
work and can remain beneath the clear
waters for an incredible length of
time. The usual depth of the opera
lions is not more than 80 to 40 feet,
though so feet has been attained at
Palawan.
Once at the bottom the diver quickly
and deity cuts the shells from the
rocks in his immediate vicinity and
then draws himself to the surface.
while filling his net he usually remains
under water for period of 60 to 80
seconds, though some of the most ex-
pert hold records that reach five and
three-quarter minutes. While at work
they are often attacked by ravenous
sharks. These they either frighten or
fight off, but there is one thing far
deadlier they all succomb to. That is
the exhausting nature of their labor,
accumulated by the contrasting tenn
peratures Of the cold water and the
tropical sun above. Their lives are Of
short duration after once adopting
pearl diving as profession.

SCARED THE WILD BEASTS.
Travellers Saved from Lions by Initiating
the HowIs of Wolves.

Travellers Saved from Lions by Initiating
the Howls of Wolves
NJ Foa, the French explorer, says
that lions have a wholesome fear of
African wolves, which hunt in packs
and do not scruple to attack even the
lion. There are terrible battles. in
which the lion succumbs to numbers
and dies fighting. In connection with
the lions fear of wolves, Mr.. Foa tells
a story from his own experience. 1t
was very dark night, so dark that
trees could not be distinguished until
the travellers were close upon them.
Lions prowled about the party, one Of
as to have an alarming effect on the
nerves. Reaching tree the men
found one of their comrades, with rifle
cooked, peering into the darkness, try.
ing to discover the whereabouts of the
animals, which could be plainly heard
walking among the leaves. A second
man was trying to relight half-ex-i
tinguished torch. Still the lions could
be heard coming and going In the
darkness. At this point the native
servant whispered the advice to imi-,
tate the cry of wolves in the distance.
The party at once began barking and,
crying 'Hu! hu! hui" in an undertone.
as IL the pack were still at distance.
while the man at the camp made the,
same well-imitated cry. The effect was
instantaneous There was the sound
of a rapid stampede across the dry
leaves. The lions decamped in panic,
driven off by the supposed approach
of pack of wolves. For the rest OF
the night the party was undisturbed.

mortal shaft to Gen. Richard Mont

Gen. Montgomery was one of the
first eight brigadier generals of the
revolution, and had not an untimely
death cut short his brilliant career he
would undoubtedly have been one of
the most distinguished generals gar

Gen. Montgomery was an Irishman

in the British army and took part in
the old French and Indian wars. After
