Animal Intelligence.

In circus in Paris lion was given
some meat shut up in a box with lid
to it, and the spectators watched to see
whether the lion would open the lid or
crack the box. He did the former,
much to the qualification of the COM
pany.
In the London Zoo" large African
elephant restores to his would be enter
tainers all the biscuits, whole or
broken, which strike the bars and fall
alike out of his reach and theirs in the
space between the barrier and his cage.
He points his trunk straight at the
biscuits and blows them hard along
the floor to the feet of the persons who
have thrown them. He clearly knows
what he is doing, because if the bis
cult does not travel well he gives it a
harder blow.

No Pipes Smoked In Cuba,

Cuba produces no tobacco for chew
ing or for pipe smoking. The Cubans
who smoke pipes might be counted on
ones fingers without making a second
round of the fingers. The cigar and the
cigarette prevail. To what extent the
Cuban cigarette might ever become
popular with American smokers is a
matter beyond determination. 1t is GER
tain that most Americans Of prolonged
residence become. If they be smokers,

HOTTEST PLACE ON EARTH
1t IL Bahrein, on the Southwestern
Coast of Persia

Coast of Persia.
The hottest region on the earth's sur
face is on the southwestern coast of
Persia, on the border of the Persian
gulf. For 40 consecutive days in the
months of July and August the mer-
curry has been known to stand above
100 degrees in the shade night and day
and to run up as high as 100 degrees
in the middle of the afternoon.
AT Bahrein, in the center of the most
torrid belt, as though 1t were natures
intention to make the place as unbear-
able as possible, water from wells is
something unknown. Great shafts have
been sunk to depth of 100, 200, 300
and even 500 feet, but always with the
same result-no water. This serious
drawback Notwithstanding, a compare
lively numerous population contrives
TO live there, thanks to copious springs
which burst forth from the bottom Of
the gulf more than a mile from the
shore.
The water from these springs is OBJ
tanned in most curious and novel
sole occupation is that of furnishing
the people of Bahrein with the life CIV
ing fluid, repair to that portion of the
gulf where the springs are situated and
bring away with them hundreds of
bags full of the water each day. The
water of the gulf where the springs
burst forth is nearly 200 feet deep, but
these machadores manage to fill their
goatskin sacks by diving to the bottom
and holding the mouths of the bags
over the fountain jets-this, too, with
out allowing the salt water of the gulf
to mix with it.
The source of these submarine foun-
tains is thought to be in the hills of
Osmond 400 and 500 miles away. Be-
ing situated at the bottom of the gulf,
it is a mystery how they were ever
discovered, but the fact remains that
they have been known since the dawn
of history.

The Marriage Cure.

One remedy against indigestion is
matrimony. At least The Lancet tells
US that it is the celibate young barris-
ter, the lonely curate in lodgings, the
struggling bachelor journalist or bust
ness man or clerk who suffers most
from premature dyspepsia because he
eats alone. He generally reads during
his meals, which is bad, or he reads
directly he has bolted his food. which
is likewise bad. Obviously. therefore,
matrimony is a bar to Indigestion

We did not suppose that our little cir.

petitors: But we find we we're mistaken,

not a. good as the Pioneer Lead and
therefore could be sold for less money;
that Carter Lead was high At ~ cents

property belonged 10 the Pacific States

Isaac Price, and at one time was used as
a smoke-house by f. @. Croes, being
afterwards remodeled into a residence.
II could not be learned from the Com
pany's local agent, L. d. Henry,
whether or not the property was insured
as all policies are written and carried in
the San Francisco office. II is the Gus
tom OF the Company TO carry insurance
on all its properties. The house was Of
the probable value Of 1850.
The blaze was discovered about s:l5
O'Clock by members Of the family, but
not until the upper apartments had
been almost completely gutted
and the flames had reached the
lower door. Mr.. Robertson saved
only a small portion of his house
hold goods and his loss will probably
reach $500 with no insurance.
