The natives are not heavy meat eat
ers. The domestic fowl-that marvel
Gus combination OF skin. bones and
feathers-the old friend OF all African
travellers. and the inevitable bleating
goat are common to all districts. There
are also some sheep to be had. But
the darling pet OF n kongo man is his
pig. You can treat his wife and chill
dren as you like. but if you touch his
pig beware. To kill mans pig that
breaks through your fence and digs up
your vegetable garden is to commit the
objectionable sin. and the owner never
forgiyes you. Hogs flesh Is equally
dear to him. Game In some parts is
plentiful. but more especially In Zom-
10. There we have several kinds OF
deer. antelopes and wild hares. The
only difficulty is to bag them Guinea
fowls. partridges and pigeons abound.
and there are some pheasants. and I'm
the swampy valleys we find wild ducks
and many other birds. Eagles. vultures
and other birds of prey are common
and very annoying. while the woods
are resplendent with the gorgeous
plunage of the birds. Elephants. buff
faloes and leopards are to be found.
but must be sought for in the more
spnrsely populated districts. = Geo

Marriage In Italy.

No maiden can witness the marriage
OF an Italian woman. no matter how
Intimate she has been as a friend, but
matrons accompany her to the church.
Neither can girl enter the house Of
her lover. and so emphatic is this rule
that II is considered necessary for a
woman to pass by the house Of her low
er in such a public way that all can
be satisfied that she does not enter it.
The lover gives presents according to
the season-cake at Easter. rosebuds at
the feast of st. Mark and almond
paste at Christmas. In addition 10
bonbons and confectionery, the groom
sends the future bride all the jewelry
he can afford. especially finger rings.
Sunday Is the only lucky day I'm the
week for weddings. as all others have
some ominous meaning. II the wed
ding is on Monday. insanity is threat
ened; Thursday Is witches day; a
Tuesday wedding will bring great suf-

must furnish the gondolas for the mar
rage procession. four candles for the
mass and plenty Of coppers for the
swarming beggars. = Woman's Home

OF dollars ia treasure was secreted BIZ

Of dollars ia treasure was secreted By
natives during the mutiny, and In no
instance was storehouse ever be-
tIayed to the British. The natives
either entered into possession or kept
the secret. Wine had loosened the
commissioners tongue. and in con-
tempt for his ''nigger" he made no Sc
cret OF his hopes and Intentions. A
word or two of warning was OF no
avail The native was abject and SER
vile to n coptemptible degree, and the
idea of his crossing his masters path
was not to he dreamed OF.
During the next two weeks the tiger
killed another officer and two beaters.
and then of sudden he was TO be seen
no more. The ruins were beaten up
half n dozen times in vain. This left
the commissioner free to work his plan.
Two days later. accompanied by two
OF his civil employees. the commission
ct proceeded to the ruins. His visit.
though intended to be secret. had to be
made by daylight In the middle Of
the ruins. where the blocks were piled
the highest and the tangle was the
greatest. he uncovered n cave. Strictly
speaking. IL had uncovered itself by
the. sliding down of a block of stone.
but OF all the people who had wan
dcrcd over the ruins none had noticed
IT, There was every evidence that the
tiger had made this spot his lair. but
on the floor was u strong box which
had been battered open. while scat
tered about were half a dozen gems.
Some one had discovered and borne
away the rajah's treasure. Who that
some one was the commissioners soon
discovered. AS he was making his way
out of the ruins he came across the
dead body of his eavesdropping serv-
| ant and not far away the bloated car
cass OF the tiger. The beast was truly
| the largest OF his species. and bis enor-
| nous teeth and claws were in good
| working order. Beside the corpse OF
the servant was a leather bag. but II
was torn and empty. The man had
| started to carry the gems away. Dut
| the tiger. still lurking In the ruins. had
i sprung upon and killed him. And yet
how came the beast dead? Where had
| the gems gone?
| The commissioner raised no alarm,
| but upon his return he related the par.
ticulars to a few intimate friends. II
was queer talk. and as matter of fact
his friends began to believe the man
daft or joking. Nevertheless they sug
| gested that the tiger must have swai
| lowed the treasure, which had proved
too much for fim. He received the re
| marks in earnest, and. sure enough
they did solve the mystery. 1t was moi
| to his benefit. however. nor to that OF
the government. Next day he returned
to the ruins to find that the carcass OF
the tiger had been dissected- One sin
gle ruby had been left In the stomach
and only one There must have beeI
