HE FOUGHT THE BEARS. Story of Old Hotel and Its Soldtiei Patrons. The destruction of an old buildfag trill often cause an old resident to turn bacic the pages of memory and relate tales of the days of old, Thus it was that three or four gentlemen listened with a great deal of interest to a few Lunch hour stories about the days when the old Bank of Upper t Canada, Icing and Frederick streets, that is now demolished, was a thriv- ing institution in a good section of the city. "I used to live right close to the bank," said the eldest of the group, a man of possibly sixty-five years, "and two or three doors from the bank, down the street, a man kept a hotel. In Toronto of those days the Sunday lig( r laws were not enforced as they l•k should have been, and this tavern-` keeper, in order to induce custom to his place on Sundays without too , much publicity, tried a rather novel idea. "From a circus which went defunct in Toronto he bought four bears, big black fellows, and chained them in his back yard, and ordered that any one coming to zee the bears would , haVe to pass through the bar -room.' As a Consequence, a. large number tame to see the bears on Sunday and many of them stayed fot consider-' able length of •time, "At length the news got to the sol- iims in the fort, and a few of them i tame down one Sunday morning to' see what was in; the air. One 01 these chaps was a big six-footer, and i After he had visited the bar and ex- amined the bears at some length he commenced to feel in a fighting t. mood. The hotel man 'didn't want a • fight in his house on Sunday, so he sent him out to light the bears. The soldier went out and found the hears all asleep, so he swatted the largest. of thele three or four goods ones en the nose, and with this rude awaken-. ing Bruin got up to see what it wast ell about. The soldier struck out once or twice more, end the bear got flint within his grip and hugged him so tight he broke his arm. 11 took several men to get the sohlic.-• froth the bear's grasp and :eke hint to a nearby surgeon." ALONE IN •A STRANGE LAND. Australia Viewed as a Great Sifter of the •Human Talents. "During the decade I spent wan- dering to and fro on the face of tropi- cal Australia I saw the old order slowly changing," writes Bishop Frodsham in the Cornhill. "It has not yet cure, gone, but one by one the, old hands are 'crossing the great di-' vide'—to use their own metaphor. The successful men die in their south- ern homes, for, as a rule, these leave the north to build themselves man- sions near Melbourne or homes by • one of. the landlocked inlets of Syd- ney cove. "The unsuccessful ones start out ` alone on their Last journey. The busy world who follow in their foot- steps quickly forget the men who found and blazed the track. When they read in the papers that such and, such an 'early citizen' died at the lo- cal hospital or was found dead in his r' solitary camp they remember for awhile and then again forget, Yet the 4' battered old derelict was 'not infre- quently one whose name will live in the nomenclature of mountains, river and plains. "One blazing summer noon I met ' a rough -looking man in the gray ; shirt and moleskin trousers so char- acteristic of the bush. He was leav- ing, ean ing, as 1 was entering, a busk 'hotel." • We recognized each. other at sight. although we had not met since the night when I sat next him at his regiraental mess, I asked him to come and see me and told him be I could use any cognomen he liked. Buts with the smile I remembered almost painfully, he refused. He had forgotte.'t how to behave, he said. There aro many such. They meet their fate, as they met their disgrace, 'with a nonchalance not Dee least val- uable asset of a gentleman. "A man who' is above the average gets on in Australia far qu ticker than he could do normally in then old coun- try, But what abottt the f eeble folk who are sent abroad to relieve their :friends at home of their tires tepee wit'a a remittance paid regularly upon 0'16 •condition --that they th('mrelves t,o not return?

Useful Adjunct to the Farm In Warm or Cold Weather.. Suitable farrowing houses are very necessary to successful handling of pigs. The houses that are used for far- rowing purposes In the early spring can be used almost throughout the year in connection with the proper handling of the hogs. says the Kansas Farmer. This is especially true of the small individ- ual farrowing houses which may be moved about the farm wherever it is desired to have suitable shelter for the stock. By blocking them up in the pastures they furnish shelter from the sun while permitting the wind to blow through underneath. On figuring the cost of labor and ma- terial• required to build a hog house largo enougb to accommodate a dozen :sows conveniently at farrowing time it is found at the Kansas Agricultural college that We cost is greater than .that required to build a dozen Indi- vidual bog houses, the difference yary- dng somewhat according to the style :and size of the houses. In the raise of the centralized hog house the work of taking erre of the sows eon all be done in the salve bedd- ing, thus taking less work than the same number of sows would require if kept in individual houses. A central• ized hog house is warmer than an indi- vidual house, and in case of early fpr• rowing this makes the former very desirable. A centralized hog house, however, steeps the hogs close together. and In case of disease there is greater danger that it will spread rapidly than if the too were kept In individual houses.

It h'1 the new term starting at the :t. of September, prince Henry, the 'ng'a third son, Is going to More his will be the drat time in history: k tar an in known, that the eon of a Mug of England will have been a r rder at any of the great Public nolo, thaugll, of course, varlors other royal boys have at ere time or another been tbcre, such as the late 'rince Christian, at Wellington, and Prince Arthur of Connaught, at Et(Cfn. The Xing and Queen have very wisely arranged that the young prince shall do, and be treated, exactly as any other boy at the school near Windsor. He is to fag and work, to ,,lay and board, just as his comrades ,to. He will start I. the "Middle Fourth" form, which is the usual farm for boys entering the school, and he will reside In Mr. Lubbock's house, where he will haVe to do "fag" duty for his seniors just like every other 4unior. The routine laid down for him fixes bis hour of rising at 5,45 a.m. on school days, and his work in school starts at 7.30. Three days a week count at Eton as half -holiday., and only four hours' classes and study are then done; but on what are called "full" days the prtuce will have •r put in six hours' work like all the oth- er pupils. Any "Upper boy" can call on the prince, as it junior, to run errands for hi.;1, and he will have to obey. But he will also have a special fag -master to whom he will be attached in due course, and for that young "lord" ho will have to tidy up the room. eacb .day, light the fere and see it is kept going all day, prepare the tea every afternoon, and at other times as want- ed, 'make all the toast for the fag - master and his friends, cook eggs and sausages, fetch the fag -master's booka and make himself generally useful. He will have to go each day to the "sock shop" (which is Etonian for "tuck chop") and bring back the pe -tries, fruit, etc., required_ by his frg-master, :tcreover, he will have to carry out this shopping economical- ly, almost as if he were a maid ser- vant, or his "chef" w'll soon want to know why the bills are so big. The smarter and better the junior m^.pages and oteys, the better it is for a fag at Eton, for there is a rule that when any fag -master calls "Boy!" in his "house," all fags must answer. And the fag who gets there last is the one who has to do the job, Lowever long it takes him, Thus obedience and hustle are encouraged and most important amongst fags at Eton. The Harrovian fag master calls "Boy!" likewise, but the fag -master at Westminster calls out "Elec.!" when any fag will do, and "E1 c. Tomson" if he needs that particular fag. "Elec." is short for "First Elec- tion," meaning junior in this case At Winchester a fag has to do all the ca•.: ng of his master's books, as well as jobs similar to those in vogue at other big schools. Names That Will Live. Apropos of the Mayor of Stepney's protest against the passing of the word "Limehouse" into the language as a synonym for vulgar vituperation -it used to be "Billingsgate" till Billingsgate protested—it would be interesting to ascertain how many people have given their names to the English language in the sense that Mackintosh and Macadam gave theirs. To Capt. Boycott we owe the word. to boycott, to Lord Sandwich, the most popular form of light refreshment; to Dr. Guiilotin, the process by which our Ministers gag the House of Com- mons; to the brave soldier 61 the groat Napoleon, Sergt. Chauvin, the won 1 Chauvinism; to Jean Nicot, the French Ambassador to Portugal, the word "nicotine"; to Mr. Thomas lowdler, the cord to bowdlerize, to .2r. Gladstone, a popular form of 'andbag; and to Wellington and :Bucher, two styles of male footwe. Mr. Hansom •.upplled the name for .,he once popular cab. "Suttee" Victim. Fotr Indians have been convict 1 at Manipuri of abetting a widow who sacrificed herself on the funeral pyre 1f her husband in the presence of over 1,500 spectators. The practice of "suttee" is forbidden by law in India, out the men were terrified int) help- ing the woman to commit suicide be- •ause she threatened to call down a 'arse on them if they refused. Tho fudge expressed i, certain amount of sympathy with them, says The Lon - all's Calcutta correspondent, as .hey were torn between the fear of acurring the wi•low's curse on -the cue hand and severe legal penalties m the other. He sentenced them to (eels of itnprisenment ranging front le months to two years. Sf :t:•- :: ei:l .7'.11:1ny.
