. The Jaeuar's Cunning.

In the more tropical parts of
South America the rivers are often
crowded with alligators. They are
ugly customers in their own ele-
ment and are best given wide berth.
When a jaguar wishes to cross a
stream he knows the risk he runs
and acts accordingly. Standing on
the bank, he begins to roar and
keeps it up for an hour. Meanwhile
the alligators gather near the spot
in great numbers, licking their jaws
as they think of the treat in store.
BY and by the jaguar ceases roaring
and dashes up stream for two or
three miles and there crosses in
safety. His artfulness is displayed
in two points-not only does he de-
liberately adopt a plan to outwit
his foes, but he proves his wisdom
by selecting place up the river,
knowing that the aligators would
have to swim against the stream to
reach him and thus increasing his
chance of safety.

THE GREEDY BLACKBlRD.
His Capacity For Putting Away Food
Is Enormous.


Which is the greediest Of. the
birds-the rock, the jackdaw, the
blackbird, the startling? | have ev-
idence, writes Mr.. Fred WishaW III
Longman's, bearing upon the vorac-
ity Of each, but | almost think that
for his size the blackbird contrives
to put away the largest amount OF
food. His capacity is enormous and
most astonishing if we compare it
with our own. Watch him on the
lawn, busy over his meat course. A
worm moves in his subterraneous
home, an inch or so below the sur
face of the ground. Mr.. Blackbird
hears him and is over the spot in an
instant. Down goes his yellow beak
and up comes the unfortunate wrlg-
CLING victim. A gulp orltwo and he
is gone, fair meal in itself, you
would say, and equivalent to pound
of sausages at the very lowest com
putation if consumed and consumer
were both translated to correspond
ing dimensions.
But our friend is not nearly sat
isfed. You may watch him unearth
and devour half dozen worms, aft
er which he will repair to the straw
berry beds for his entremet. He
will fly along the net until he
reaches some weak spot he knows
Of, but which you have not yet dis
covered. With dive and a wriggle
he is through and beginning quiet
half hour among your choicest ber-
ries, during which time he will not
regard the circumstance that such
fruit is worth shilling a pound
or near it. He will "tuck in" until
he scarcely possesses the energy to
retire when requested to do SO by
the human owner Of the property,
preferring to hide among the foil
age and lie low until, with the help
Of that remarkably quick digestion
of his, he may feel able to move with
comfort. During that hour Of lassi-
tude the green eyed cat may come
and peer through the net, suspect
ing his presence there maybe, but
he will take no cognizance Of her.
He is too lazy even to swear at her
and prefers to lie and blink under
his strawberry leaves. He feels like
the schoolboy in the tuck shop who
has had nine penn'orth of jam roll
and is then invited by the captain
of the Junior House eleven to come
and field out. He is "stodged" at
last and incapable>of exertion.

Panama, Dec. 4.-The popular dem
onstration following the signing of the
canal treaty was most enthusiastic.
About 5000 persons took part in it,
which, for Panama, was very large
crowd. There were cheers for the

welt. From the palace the crowd went
to United States Consul Gudger's resi-
dence and the headquarters of Ad-
miral Walker, where there was more
cheering and the playing of national
airs by band of music.
The treaty will be turned over to
Mr.. Gudger at once, who will imme-
diately advise Washington thereof. It
will be enevloped in Panaman and
American flags. Mr.. Gudger will keep
the document until Dec. 8, when he
will send it to the United States. If
Admiral Walker leaves for New York
Dec, 8 by the steamer City of Washing
ton he will take the treaty with him.
If not Mr. Gudger will send it to the

EAR GRATING A SUCCESS.
Western Mine Owner Allowed to Leave
Hospital.

New York, Dec. 4.-The Western
mine owner who procured, through the
medium of $4,000, new ear, which
was grated upon his head after being
cut by degrees from another mans
head, has returned from the private
hospital in Philadelphia where the op-
Grafton was conducted by New York
surgeon. Circulation has been estab-
lished in the foreign flesh and, ap-
parently the operation was a success.
There is some swelling about the
places where the stitches were taken
and few small gatherings of pus, but
the surgeon SAYS this is no menace to
the ear and will soon disappear under
treatment
