'remember even at that monieut wondering how he could possibly open his mouth BO wide. Mitt and I were perhaps ten garde apart, and the tiger leaped out midway between BP, Instinctively the Ata /with° made a wild rush on his side and 1 on mine. The tiger hadevidently walked just fax enough into the grass to be hidden and then lain down, His preens* there took us so completely by surprise that we were helpless. 1 may as well confess than my state of mind ab that moment was one of dreadful {auk. If the tiger had been slightly less wounded than he was, it is perfeetly mullein that in another indent he would have killed one or the other of us. We had not the remotest chance of °seeping him by running away. But hie first spring was evidently all he could manage, for he turned immediately end sneaked back into the cover. Mitts fired into the moving grass after him, in spite of my shouted protests, tearing a piece of akin off his flank, as we afterward discovered. We took five minutes to recover from our scare, and then,a,s the beast was practically helpless, we followed him through the grass. After a 'hundred yards, his growls brought us up short agein. I sent Mitt up e tree and he reported the eight of his head. So I beokon- ed him down, limbed up myself, pulled up the rifle after me, and there I could distinct- ly Bee the tiger about oeventy yarda away, sitting on his haunches with leis bank toward me. I aimed at his spine behind his saoulders, and when the bullet etruok he simply got up and turn-, ed half round, giving me a, splended (thence. • My second bullet struck him in exaotly the right place, and he made a grab with his mouth where it entered, then spun round three or four times like a terrier ohasing his tail and fell in a heap. At thin moment the three other men who had not gone home after all, arrived on their ponin, so we walked carefully up to him in line. There he lay, or rather she for it was a very fine tigrese, a little under eight feet long, and very beautifully marked. Next morning an Annanelte hunter who , had been sent out by Mr, Landon, the • Superintendent of the Station, to look for • brake, returned and reported that he had built a "mirador," and we were to make our first attempt that evening. At 530 that afternoon we started, Mitt (that was his name or nickname) walking and running ahead, and I followed him ona pony. We were on a small rising ground, (lotted with bushes; in the middle,of a rough tangle,of forest and brush % ood. I looked everywhere for the "miracror," and, not finding it, I yelled an inquiry into Mitt's ear (for he was stone deaf). He pointed to a tree fifty yards away and 1eaw how niarvelousay he • had concealed it. He had chosen two slim trees growing four feet apart, behind these he had planted two bamboos at the other oorners of the square, and then he led two or three thiekly-leavecl creepers from the ground, and wound them in and around and over a little platform and root, till he had made a perfect nest of live foliage. The floor was about twenty feet from the ground, and ib looked perilously fragile to field two men. Bat it was a mesterpieee of hunting. craft. In response to a peculiar ory from Mitt two natives appeared with a little black pig slung on a pole, yelling lustily. The nnirador" (or I meohan," as I believe it is called in India) overlooked a slight depression in which an oblong pond had been oonstrueted for the buffaloes to wallow in, as these ugly brutes oan not work unless they are allowed to soak them- selves in water two or three times a day. By the side of this Master Piggy was securely fastened,neek and heels, ta his infinite dis- gust. Then the two natives took themselves • off with their pole, Mitt gave me a "leg up' into the " mirador," which shook and , .swayed as we olmbed gingerly in, and we .1- arranged ourselves for our long watoh. A • soft cap instead of the big sun -helmet, the bottle of cold tea, and the flask put handy, half a dozen cartridges laid out, the rifle loaded and cooked. "The rest is silence." Till 10:30 we sat side by side like two stone BuddhaThen five wild pigs came trob. ting down to the water to drink, which Wall an intensely welcome break hi the monotony. At 11:30 Mitt made signs to me to go to sleep for a while and he would watob. At 12 : 30 4 he woke rae, and dmmediately fell back in hie turnfast asleep. The rest, and the con. niousness then I had no longer the sharp eyes of my companion to rely upon, made me doubly attentive, and I watched every twig.

It took Prussia thirty years to recover from the prostration caused by her conflict with Napoleon, whereas three years after the peaoe of Frankfort France was more pros - porous than ever. The extortion of Alsace and a seotion of Lorraine is nob e� easily justified. et is true enough, as Prof. Geffoken says, that ever awe the time of Francis I, France has in- terfered in the eifeirs of Germany. He for- get* to add that in the majority ot instances she interference was solicited or applauded by Germans. Up to the peaoe of West- phalia in 1648 Frenoh • armies fought on German soil in defence of German liberbies; and wibhout their aid the Protestant princes, inoluding the Eleotor of Brandenburg, could never have sustained themselves against the Cetholia mighb of Austria. The interposi- tions of Louis XIV. and Louis XV. are less exonssable, but even for them it may be sold that they never lacked Germans allies. Nor should it be forgotten, as regards' territorial acquisitions, that both in the three Bishop - rice of Metz, Tont, and Verdun (obtained in the middle of s'arteenth century), and in the Duchy of Lorraine (not ideally annexed h f th i ht e th French Sea•leady, in perfect silence and without the sliganaia swathing, a big black object flashed by the far side of the little pool. It was like the ser op past of an owl in the star light, like bile imadow of a,passing bird, utter- ly noiseless and instantaneous. Every nerve in my body was a -thrill, every mueole stiff with excitement. Slowly I pht out my left hand and grasped my sleeping companion hard by the leg. If he made the slightest noise we were lost, Like a trained hunter he awoke and lifted himself into a sitting po- sition without a, sound, R fie to shoulder we peeped through our peeped -holes. A moment after, a blood -curdling scream broke the still - 11888, followed by yell after yell of utter ter- ror. It was the wretched pig who had woke to find hiinself in the olutehee of the tiger, and the effen on nerves strained in enema to their utmoss tension was electrical. I ;shall never forget that moment. The lager was there before me , he had the pig in hisgrasp, In another second he would probably be gone. And I could see nothing, absolutely nothing. • It was pitch dark in the depression where he • was standing, and I might as well have fired • with my eyes shut. Stare as I veonld, I eould not distinguish tale least thin at which to aim. And all the time the pig was yelling loud enough to wake the deed. Suddenly I saw the same black shadow pass up the little incline for a dozen yards. The pig's screams dropped into a long howl. My heart sank. Had the tiger gone? No, for an instant afterwards the ahadow shot down the slope again and the yell • broke out afresh. The Sitnaldell Was agonizing I could hardly resists the temptation to fire both barrels at random into the darkness. Do I see something ? Yes, the black mass o' the pig, spinning head over heels on his ropes like a butterfly on a pin.- And just above him a very pale faint curved line of • 'white. It is the white borseshoe of the tiger's chest, and the inside of his forelegs, as he has turned for a moment in my direo- then. Now or never. A last glance down the almost indistinguishable' barrels, and I pine the trigger. The blinding flash leaps out, the answering roar scathe even the tertified pig into silence, and a blue veil of smoke, hiding everything, hang before us. Mitt turned toward me with interrogation or reproach in his eyes, and shook his head doubtfully. Fot two minates we set and listened. Then a long, hard -drawn breath, expelled in a painful heavy sigh, came out of the bushes on our righb. I never heard a sweeter • sound in my life. It meant that the tiger was hit so badly that he could not get away at once, and evidently hit somewhere about his lungs. Every two minutes for half an hour thin sobbing sigh was audible. Then It ceased but no matter. If he was hurt as badly as that we shotild get him for certain. So I lighted my pipe and tried I have buried deep.the "might have been, to Wait patiently for daylight.

Only in the case of Strasburg and of Upper and Lower Aisne (incorporated with France not summarily, but gadually during the seven- teenth'eentury) was the principle of nation- ality distinctly violated. •And even Stras- burg and Alsace have daring the last two centuries become thoroughly and passion- etely Frenoh. Here we touoh the essenoe of the crime involved in Bismarok's seizure of AlsateIror- raine. It was a sin against the enlightened conscience of the nineteenth century, a transgression of the principle of nationalia ties, a. refusal to recognize the right of peo- ples to decide for themselves with what na- tion they desire to be incorporated. Not what a, Bourbon despot did two hundred years ago, but what the politioal morality of our own day notions, is the questioa to be answered by the ravishers of Alsece-Lor- rain. Do the Alsan-Lerrainers wish. to be Germans or Freaohmen ? How would they reply to that inquiry if it were put to them at the ballot box? That is the fundamental, crucial query which Prof. Geffeken shirks. No one, indeed, knows better than he that the German empire cannot afford to recog- nize the prineple of nationalities, invoked in vain by the Poles of Posen and by the Danes of Sleswick. The elephant has more muscles in its trunk than any other oreatare poseesses in its entire body, their number being, anording to Cuvier, no lees than 40,000; while the whole of a man's murteles only number 527. The proboscis or trunk of the elephant, which contains thie vast quantity of amen musolee, variously interla.oed, is extremely flexible, endowed • with the mot exquisite sensibility and the utmost diversiuy of motion. One of the penalties whioh Great Britain pays for her tong coast line is the immense lose of life and property along the coast ie opine of the number of lighthouses provided for ships and the excellent lifeboat system. For the year 'ending June, 1887, the latest fig,ures give 4,224 casualties to vessels around British (waste and 645 lives were loot. • The figures show an increase over the preceding period.
