Poor Major Sandbach of the artillery came to his death in So- maliland a few years ago in attempting to thus hold off a lioness, which never- theless managed to inflict on his band and arm bites which proved fatal. A curious story of the same kind comes from the Khandwa district of northern India. Mr. Bayley, also an artillery officer, was charged by a wounded tiger which he was following up. He missed it with his first barrel, and the second failed to go off. The tiger sprang. an Mr. Bayley jumped to one side, thrust- ing out his rifle to keep the brute off. The tiger, it is stated, seized the bar- rels and drove his teeth through them and, being unable to withdraw them, was shot by Captain Harrison, Mr. Bayley’s companion. In his death struggle the tiger drag- ' ged the rifle from the owner’s hands, | and the jar caused by the stock strik- ing the ground broke off two teeth which were imbedded in the steel. This story is said to be absolutely true; but, with the profoundest respect for the strength of the tiger’s jaws and teeth, I venture to think it wants explana- tion.—London Sketch. Women of a Duatch Village. The village women of Holland take special care to keep the tips of their white lace boods sti with which is as necessary a perfection ip their toilet as polished linen and spot- less collars with ours. This delicate hood is worn over a black skulleap that fits the closely clipped bead very wuch like the headgear of a nun. The elderly women, widews, often wear a straw bonnet over it. A jacket of dark blue, with a breastpiece of cream cloth and dark blue border of the same cloth at the hips. constitutes the dress of the women and the girls. The skirts protrude at the hips in a grotesque fashion on account of the many flannels which they wind about the body. evidently a fad with them as with many peasants of the Black forest, where the custom prevails to wear as many skirts as the spare box will allow, adding at least one skirt every year. They all dress alike, and the talk about dress therefore does not slip into their conversations. and on ten peal SUareih, that ore they are at eternal peace with one another. for uo change of dress has occurred amopg them for P e@nturies and will not for cole.— Donahce's. years to An Odd Stage Wager. The fate Signor Foli, the well knorcwn rocalist. once made a very curious wager with some of his companion singers at Her Majesty's Opera House. Some 20 years ago Mephistopheles in Gourod’s “Faust” was among his fa- vorite impersonations. In the garden scene his strides when attempting to avoid the elderly Martha formed an important feature of the humorous business. One night, the leneth of his legs be- ing a subject of chaff as be was stand- ing at the wings. be declared his ability to cross the stage in three bounds. The comments that ensued re sulted in a bet. When the proper moment for the ex- periment came, he retreated a few paces, and then, to the surprise of the audience as well as to the representa- tive of Martha, leaped from side to side. The scene never evoked more laughter, and Foili was ackuowledged to have won the wager. Equally Divided. “During the civil war.” says the Boston Transcript, “the Law school at Cambridge was presided over by Pro- fessors TParsons, Parker and Wash- burn. They were divided in their po- litical views, and ‘each did bis best to maintain bis opinion. “Professor Parker was one day ask- ed, ‘How do you get along on polities nt the Law school? “Nicely,” he answered. ‘We equally divided.’ “*But how can that be?’ continued the inquirer. “There ore three of you? “*Easy enough,’ replied the profess- or. ‘Parsons writes on one side and [ on the other, and Washburn—he speaks on one side and votes on the other.’ ” are American News Via London. Another case of going abrond to cet the news. A London paper said the other day: “New York is on the eva of a fierce social struggle.
