Bowling. has had both arms and both legs frozen and wears artificial limbs
 The crippled speaker is a native of Massachusetts and is 3355 years of age
 At 12 he went to Minnesota and work ed on farms until, while herding cattle, the mishap occurred that changed his life. On Dec. II, 1880, he was badly frozen. and it was found necessary to amputate one leg above the knee, an other above the ankle, his left arm at

After not raining for long time it rained very hard in India and the re- cent letters and newspapers from Cal cutta describe the flooding of that city. where the water stood twenty inches deep in the streets. People went about in boats and wagons and as the rules of the road were suspended for the time, there was a great miX-up in the more crowded thoroughfares. In some places pedestrians Waded up to their necks and in others up to their knees. Scores of natives went about the streets spearing fish, The fish tanks had been overflowed and it was good fishing in all the principal streets, es- pecially in the celebrated Madan. A native clerk who was late in arriving at his office excused himself by saying that in Wading to his place of busi- ness he was much annoyed by the fish, one of which jumped out of the water and hit h.m in tose eye.-New York Press
