Stallion and Bull Fight.

A terrific fight between stallion
and vicious bull occurred on the
farm of Paul Hoffner, at Halendon,
N. j., the other day. The fight re-
suited in the disemboweling of the
stallion, an animal valued at 81 400
with record of 2.20. 1t was owned
by William Petrie, of that city.
The stallion. covered by red blan-
ket, was in the barn, when the bull,
seeing the blanket, became Infatuated
and, leaping over a fence, attacked
the stallion, who met the bull with
his hind legs. His steel-shod hoofs
cut deep cash in the bulls shoulder.
The blow stopped the bull for a mo-
ment, but he returned to the combat,
and the animals fought all over the
barnyard. The farmer and several
of his men ran to the scene with pitch
forks, but the bull felled the stallion
before they could save it. The bull,
which had given considerable trouble
before, was shot.

Strange Story of a Pearl.

Interstatecommerce between Mary
land and New York is involved IN
the strange story of pearl that was
found aud lost and found again by
John Williams, an oyster dealer.
Some weeks ago Williams attend ed
an oyster supper at the home OF a
friend. In one of the oysters ne
found large, oval-shaped pearl, with
a peculiar little red spot in one end.
Its value was estimated to be about
5000. A week later he went to visit
his father, at the home in Weston,
Nd. He lost the pearl in the yard
the day before he left for New York.
His father raises chickens for the
market, and many of his customers
are in New York and vicinity.
Williams entered the butcher shop
of Henry Liefer, in Linden avenue,
Jersey City, Monday night. He or
dered two chickens, and as the butch
dressed them large pearl fell out
on the block. Williams at glance
recognized the jewel he had lost in
Maryland. Liefer secuted the idea
and refused to give it up. When the
crate in which the chickens had been
shipped was brought up it bore the
name and address of Williams father
in Weston, Nd.
Liefer claims that as Williams had
not yet paid for the chickens the
pearl is his property. Williams de-
clares that he will go to law with the
question unless the butcher restores
the pearl to him.

A Russian Giant.

Nine feet three inches of giant, with
head, hands and feet to match, will
make bis appearance on Hammerstein s
Victoria Roof Garden, in New York,
this summer if at the last minute ne
does not get spasm Of fright and re-
fuse to sail from Cherburg.
The Goliath is Machnow, known IN
Europe as the tallest man in the
world. He is a Russian peasant and
all told there are $50 pounds of him.
not so very much, considering his
great height. His hands, from the
wrist to the tip of the middle fn4er.
measure "a inches, and his feet are
constructed in proportion. His head
takes hat big enough for two ordina-
ry men and his fingers require gloves
of great size.
Machnow once had an offer to come
to this country and exhibit himself,
and he agreed. But just as the boat
was about to sail his timidity overeame
him aud nothing could induce him to
board the vessel. This time he signed
a contract with Oscar Hammerstein,
who believes he will come at the APP
pointed time.
Mr.. Hammerstein was in Paris
signing Nine. Nellie Melba for his
grand opera company when he heard
that the giant was in good bumor, and
he thought he might as well kill two
birds with one stone He was a bit
skeptical as to Machnow's size until
he saw the giant at the London Hip
podrome, whittier he went once he
had the Melba contract in his pocket.
Then all doubt took wing.
The giant is married to a women of
ordinary size and is very happy with
his wife, who has to stand on chair
to kiss him. He is in fine health and
has hearty appetite. For breakfast
he devours 2 quartz of milk or tea, l6
boiled eggs, 6 or 8 loaves of bread and
half pound of butter. For luncheon
he has % pounds Of meat, 5 pounds
of potatoes and quart Of beer. Din
ner is more elaborate, this being his
menu on most days: A basin of soup,
5 pounds of meat, 5 pounds of vegeta-
bles, 8 pounds of bread and a quart
or two of beer. His 10 o'clock snack
consists of 10 eggs, several loaves of
bread and quart of tea-New York
