Hunting a Tiger.

An English missionary to British
Guiana penetrated few years ago to
the remoter settlements Of those trop-
ical wilds, where he was entertained
by half-breed settler. He reports
one story told him there on rainy day.
The story is of interest for its dialect,
as well as for its adventure:
Hanging over the fence about the
cabin was huge tiger skin. We had
arrived only few days after the ami
NAL was killed. Tell us about it I
said. for, like the Athenians of old, we
had nothing else to do just then but to
tell or hear something new

High Wafer In Calcutta.

After not raining for long time
Il rained very hard in India, and the
recent letters and newspapers from
Calcutta describe the flooding of that
city, where the water stood 90 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
mp in the more crowded thorough
fares. 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 oyerfiowed
and it was good fishing in all the
principal streets, especially in the
celebrated Mainan. native clerk
who was late at his Office excused
himself by saying that IN wading to
his place of business he was much an
noyed by the fish, one of which
Jumped out of the water and hit him
in the eye.-N. Y. Press.

The railroad wreck at Eyerson on

@. was worse than at first reported.
There are now eight dead as result
OF the accident which took place early
on Tuesday morning through the
wrong orders having been given the
trainmen by the operator at Everson.
1t was very foggy in the morning
and the engines were not observed
until they were right on each other.
When the crash came the cars piled
into the valley and crushed the life
out Of six men at once. Two more
have since died. The list of dead and
injured is as follows:
John Deveny, fireman on No. 230

One of the injured men hobbled
back to flag the morning passenger
from Clarksburg and succeeded in get
ting far enough up the track to stop
it before it had plunged into the
wreck and added horror to the awful
scene.
The injured and dead were taken at
once to Fairmont. Funerals of the
dead began to-day and tomorrow the
people OF that town will devote their
time and attention to the burial of
the victims. The wreck is one of the
worst that ever took place on the road.
1t is said that the operator at Ev-
erson will be arrested by Supt. Hugh
G. Bowles of the Monongah division
who refuses to give out his name or to
verify the report.
The damage to the track has been
repaired but many of the cars have
not yet been removed Some Of them
will have to be burned as they are not
worth removing.

RaILR0ADER's CLEVER DEVICE.
Scheme on the Baltimore & Ohio
whereby Passenger May show
Himself Crank.

Some clever brain employed on the
Baltimore Y Ohio railroad has con-
cocted unique scheme for dealing
equitably with the wise people and al
ltged cranks who ride on the passen-
ger trains on that road. In the
course of his philosophical reasonings
this genius AYERS that brakeman,
coming in from the platform outside,
in this kind OF weather, win consider
a car warm. On the contrary, pas
senger sitting in the car for some time
may regard the car cold, and SO tell
the brakeman. The latter, looking
upon the passenger as a crank, will
pay no attention TO the complaint and
make no effort to increase the temper
allure or the car. At the same time,
the car may be cold. and the brake
man coming in from the chilly air,
may not be cognizant OF II. So there
is no standard by which it may be de-
termined whether the complainant Is
crank or not--a point on which
hinges the matter of relief or no re-
lief. Then, too, there may bob up
some passenger, who will insist that
the car Is uncomfortably hot, and ask
that the steam be turned off and the
doors and ventilators opened, while
the rest of the people in the car may
find the temperature just right.
Thus there are continually occur
ring unpleasant differences of opinion
between Baltimore & Ohio brakeman
and the passengers for whom they are
always striving TO make things agree
able, The undesirabilty of this con
dltion OF things is apparent at a
glance. Hence clever brain set it.
self to work TO evolve some remedy for
the trouble. The result is simple just
as most great things are.
Every passenger car on the Balti-
more u Ohio system, within the next
few days will be provided with a Their
mome6er. This thermometer will be
placed against one side Of the car
midway between the doors. A pas
senger complaining Of heat or cold will
then be referred to the thermometer
where he may himself ascertain
whether he is crank or not. The
beauty of the thing, from the stand
point OF the Baltimore & Ohio philos-
ophef, consists ia the fact that pas
senger may thus be convicted OF being
a crank without the brakeman or the
company having hand In 1t.

structed TO take bids on the curbing
which will be needed over there and
they will report to council as soon as
they can find out what it will be done
for. The contracts will then be let
and the curbing will be put down as
soon as possible. The bonds will be
disposed OF soon and the money will
then be available for the improvement.
This will all be underway by spring.
