Maglnnis had been Ill for some time,

was somewhat irritable, and when
things failed to meet his approval the

snain,s cannv RaIIroad,.

In Spain the railroads do not lose a
chance TO make a little profit even in
fhe case Of the nontravelers. When
you see somebody Off in that country
you must pay for the privilege. The
railroads ali sell billetes de anden,
which are good for the platform only.
These cost generally centinnos, equiv
alent to cent in American money.
Just why this is done 1t is hard to see,
because persons entering a train can
not very well avoid the conductor, who
is always making trips to inspect the
carriages. If a person attempted to
steal a ride In a carriage. he would
have small chance OF getting away
with It. II caught, he would have to
pay q penalty OF just twice the fars
between the point where he was dis
covered and the point where tickets
last were inspected.-New York Sun.

There was little girl five years old

The puIlhaht.

We went to bull6ght and wished
we had stayed away. 1t is quite as
unpleasant as people say, and the
cruelty to the horses turns one sick.
II 1t was merely an affair between the
men, who are undoubtedly very skill
full, and the bull, which is probably SO
mad with rage as to be past feeling
much pain, one could shrug ones shout
ders at the queer game and find some
excuse, but for the torture Of those
poor old bllndfolded screws there can
be no shadow OF palliatlon. After three
bulls had been killed we had seen

horses in the third encounter had al

There is in Bulgaria a group Of nat
ural columns much like the Giants
Causeway In Ireland. On the edge OF
a plateau In the open country rises this
forest OF natural columns. which gives
the impression Of an antique ruin. The
columns, which are about fifteen to
twenty feet high, are absolutely cylln-

three feet thick. The qualification Of
the rock resembles joints and vertical
