The other evening we received
an article from one of the inmates
entitled Lake Chautauqua." A
little investigation proved that
said article had been taken verba.

smooth, but he is deceiving no one

said article, we would have printed

Beside the gates of Paradise
With Book of Records nigh,
The good st. Peter gave advice
10 all that did apply.
Some down the rose-strewn path he sent,
More down the brier-patch;
The good, the bad, Indifferent.
Alike with neat dispatch.
At length in turn pilgrim came.
Alas! to his dismay,
He found no credit to his name,
No bias either way.
Of evil, there had been share,
OF good, no more or less;
The Ledger balanced to hair,
And left no room to guess.
Then said the Saint, $50 bad you've been,
Inside you cannot go;
And yet so good 'twOuld be sin
TO send you down below.
fear you'll have to try once more
Another earthly stay"
But Charon busy at his oar
Refused him passage-way.
Then over to the waiting line
He came for sympathy;
He pressed his spectral hand to mine
And whispered thus to me:
Denied admittance yonder, where
Within is joy sublime;
Nor, with His Sable Highness there,
Allowed to pass the time.
No chance to reach the Earth again,
wouldn't If 1 could;
One journey thru the haunts of men
Was ample bad or good.
Down with the fallen angels, I
Shall go and dwell apart;
In order to get safely by,
I'll make flying start
Then with run he struck the chutes,
Where Satan and his aides
Stood by to settle all disputes
AmOLg the passing shades.
But as they swung with all their heft
To speed his course along;
woke to find I'D oversight
Our usual morning gong.

Last November the Lumiere
Autochrome Photographic plates
were introduced into the United

enthusiasm. The Autochrome is
the latest thing in "color-photog-

this item to 60 into rhapsodies
over the apparently marvellous in
vention. Many of the foremost
journals of photography have de-

process and the Century magazine
even had the temerity to attempt
a reproduction of the possibilities
of the Autochrome. Color pho

Pictures in the original colors of

the process of developing and fin

one, while the final result is a
transparency and must be viewed
by reflected light. In reading Of
this discovery we are very ept to
associate the thought Of color

A REGIMENTAL PET.

TPN 1869, two officers Of the Fifth Ian
GERS, an English regiment, sta
toned in India, while on a shoot
Ing expedition in the Nepaul district,
encountered q fine tigress with cubs.
They killed the tigress, and the two
cubs We're captured and taken to Luck
now, where they used to play about the
Fifth Lancers' mess.
One, however, choked himself with q
lump OF raw meat, which he had pur-
Joined. The surviving cub was pre-
sented to the Madras Fusiliers, who
gave him the name of "Plassey," and
constituted him their regimental pet.
Plassey became very tame, and was
on most friendly terms with the men.
He lived at the officers mess, and when
S1lowed to be at large he amused him
self by stalking a small donkey, which
was wont to wander about the mess
compound.
He was also introduced to an antelope
I'M a dog, and with them he lived
amicably while the regiment remained
In India.
Plassey accompanied the Hundred
n Second to England, and two young
leopards and his canine ally were his
acknowledgements.
EldbSey htluSu WIN inc regiment at
Dover, where suitable quarters were
provided for him, in the main fosse
OF the citadel, beneath the officers
mess.
There the tiger lived a happy life
with his friend, the dog. AT mealtime
Plassey always allowed the dog to
have the first chance, but when he
thought his canine companion had
taken q fair share he would give the
dog a gentle tap with his paw as a
reminder.
When Plassey was nearly full-grown,
and in the zenith of his popularity with
the Fusiliers, an old lady resident of
Dover wrote to the general command
ing the district, and stated that she
a seen Plassey disembark, and that
ever since h had remained a prisoner
in her house, fearing to go out lest the
tiger should have escaped and be
roaming about the town.
So frequent yer this old lady's let
ters and complaints that at last the
general felt compelled to take notice
of them, and SO poor Plassey was sent
off to the Geological Gardens, accom-
panied In his exile by his faithful dog.
There he developed into q magnif-
cent animal, and never outgrew his
amiability. Plassey died at the Zoo
in the spring of 1877, n his head and
skin were long preserved in the officers
mess of the Hundred and Second.
