EATING A LIVE RABBIT. The mining village of Hick- man, on the Tom's Run Branch of the Pittsburg, Charties and • Youghiogheny road, is in a state of indignation. Humane Agent O'Brien to -day received a com- plaint from some citizens of that village of a crime as unusual as to startle him. The complaint states that a number of Italian and French miners from Walker's Mills, on the Pan -Handle Rail- road, are in the habit of congre- gating at Hickman and wagering bets on the ability of a French- man named Maxims to eat live animals. This Frenchman is a small, tick -set man, who, it is al- leged, fled from France to avoid imprisonment on complaint of the Humane Association there. He wagers that he can eat any small animal alive. On last Sunday afternoon Max- ime and fourteen miners went ''r, from Walker's Mills to Hickman to have a contest. A tame rabbit belonging to Carroll Jones, of Hickman, was captured and a large amount of money wagered. as The parties, according to the CNA- It tlainants,were all intoxicated,and ightened tbe miners' wives so that they fled to the woods in terror. Maxime was attired in a blue shirt,with a red sash tied jauntily around bis waist. The spectators formed a ring around him, and at a signal he seized the trembling rabbit and began to crunch its rigbt forefoot. He ate hide and all,•and a few minutes his brutish instinct so asserted itself that he would hold the dying animal in his teeth and shake it like a terrier does a rat, while the blood of the rabbit covered his face and shirt and spotted the drunken gr•otp that looked at him. The live animal -eater within fifteen minutes consumed all of the rabbit save its hind legs and then fell exhausted to the ground. He had won hiswager and his backers insisted on being paid. The losers were unwilling to settle and soon there was a general fight in which several of the par•- ticlikants were bably injured. Knit es were used, b.:t no one was stabbed.

A prominent lawyer in this city had a client the other day 'who related a story which shows that the watermelon may accom- `;plish great damage when used as It weapon under certain circum - 'stances. The lawyer's client is a ,5 conductor on a Central Railroad freight train. A few days ago, as :the train was going up the read at a speed of twenty miles an hour, the conductor was standing r,rn the caboose looking ahead out ':of the window, with his head iresting on his arm. The trai n `rushed by a sma'I station were a ;wat.r•melons were being loaded in to some cars. As the freight train passed ono of the hands engaged Jn loading, in a spirit of fun, pitched one of the melons at the ;onductor's head in the window )n the caboose. Iiia aim was well ;,-taken, and the consequences were ;disastrous. The melon struck :the conductor squarely on tho '•face and arm, knocking out three :teeth, cut his face open, and al - >r tort broke his arm. The joker's melon almost finished the con- „dnctor. The speed at which tho thin was running is responsiblo far the unt.sual force of the blow. The conductor is now preparing the Harty who threw the on.

Probably the most extraordinary surgical operation on record is re- ported at Paris. Lr. Lannel- onque, an eminent specialist in the children's hospital, has just succeeded in the effort to give in- telligence to a poor little idiot The child a little girl four years old, had a deformed head, only about one-third the size of an or- dinary little one of her age. She never smiled, never tools notice of anything and she could neither walk nor stand. The doe or be- came convinced that the condi- of the little creature was due to the abnormal narrowness of the head, which hindered the natural growth of the brain. About tbo middle of May last he made long and narrow incision in the left skull and cut a por- tion out of the left side of it, without injuring the dura mater. The result of the operation was remarkable. In less than a month the child began to walk. Now she smiles, interests herself in everything around her and plays with a doll. A tolerably bright little child has taken the place of an idiot. There is more fun in a sheet of sticky fly paper than in the average negro minstrel.

Teo drys ago it wealthy Non - trot gentj4m.an who bad been' stoppikg at Old Orebard attetnpt. ed to board a moving train at.tha •. t•laett gees which he was to return home. He missed his footing and dangled between two cars, with only a bald with one hand between him and death under the car wheels. This hold be was last losing, when Frank E. Morrill, a young man who sells pop -corn on the Boston & Maine line be- tween North Berwick, where he lives, and Portland, came out upon the platform of the car and managed with considerable diffi- culty to rescue the gentleman from his dangerous position. The gentleman, as soon as he was back upon the car platform, grasp- ed Morrill's hand, and said:—'you have saved my life, and I will send you a cheque for $5,000 as soon as I get home. This is not con- versation, and you will get your money.' Young Morrill told of the gentleman's promise, and the matter was public talk for a day or two, the general opinion being that though Morrill might receive a handsome present he would not get the sum promised. The gen- tleman did not give his name,and even now desires that it should not be made public, but he kept his word to the letter, and a few days ago young Morrill, who bad given his name and address at the rescue, received a cheque for $5,- 000, which was honored by the Bank of North Berwick, and the money promptly paid over. Mor- rill is 23 year's old, a young man of good reputation and industrious habits, and since a boy he has supported his widowed mother by his pop corn sales upon the trains. Not only has he made a living in this way, but he has accumulated and bas on deposit at the North Berwick Bank $3,000, which, in addition to the present from the Montreal gentleman, gives him a snug nest -egg. Harvey A. Smith, a farmer liv- ing at Castle Hill, Me., had a ter- rible battle with a mad stallion on Monday. He hitched the stallion on the barn floor, removed the harness and was taking him to his stall when the animal sudden- ly attacked him. Tho wind blew the barn door shut and Smith found himself imprisoned on the barn floor with a frantic stallion. For nearly halt an hour he fought with no weapon but his fists,leaing aside to avoid the assaults as much as possible, but being knocked over and fearfully bruised. He foundhis s:rength failing and was just making up his mind that, it was all up with him when the stallion in some way or other dis- engaged a sled stake from the mow,and Smith saw it rolling tow- ard him on the floor. Seizing the stake, he swung it with ail his strength, and, striking the animal just behind the ear, with one blow laid him dead at his feet. Mr Smith was terribly cut and bruis- ed by the stallion's teeth and hoof's, but his injuries are not dangerous. The season has been propitious for berries, but the reports from all parts of the United States in- dicate a general scarcity of fruit, excepting, perhaps, in California. The Delaware peninsula has no peaches, and NewJerseycompar- atively few, while the great apple - growing sections report a heavy shortage in their principal fruit crop. Pears, too, are generally scarce. In Canada the fruit crop is below the average, though not so much so as in most sections of the United States. Teaches are short. hut decidedly more abun- dant than in New Jersey, and ap- ples, in Ontario at any rate, are somewhat small, but we will, how- ever, have a fair surplus for ex- port to Europe, where the fruit crop is oven shorter than on this continent. Under the circum- stances the Canadian orchards ilt probably do as well as usual, the enchanted prices compensat- ing for the reduced yield. Miss Ruby Smith, daughter of Mr D. D. Smith, of London, was standing on the pier at Port Stan- ley on Friday night when the wind blew her hatoff, and in reaching to catch it she lost her balance and fell into the water.— A young man carred J. A. Bland, son of Mr Thos. Bland,was fishing several yards from where the girl fell into the water and plunged in after her. With great difficulty he kept Miss Smith's head above water until he was assisted by some mon in a row boat. Young Bland sank below the surface of the water twice before he was given assistance. Miss Smith was quite unconscious for some time after being taken out of the water,and was WO ill to be brought home last evening. Bland seems nono the worse for his adventure.

A BRAVEII ITTLE GIRL The following incident, related of a little heathen Bengalee girl, shows what children in these far off countries sometimes suffer for the sake of their religion. A little girl came to school a few days ago with a severe bruise on her forehead, and on being ask- ed by Mrs M. what had caused it gave no answer, but looked ready to burst out in crying. But an- other child, a relative, was not so reticent, and said her father, hav- ing observed that she had not done her " puia" for a great many days, asked her why she so neglected her devotions, to which she re- plied, 'Father, I have not neglect- ed my devotions; I have prayed every day toJesus. I. do not pray to idols, because I do not believe in them.' This so enraged the father that he seized her by the neck, took her before the idol, and having first bowed reverently before it himself, forcibly bent the child's head several times, striking it so violently on the ground that it bled profusely, the child crying bitterly the whole time. But she smiled happily enough when this was related in school, and said that she did not much mind, add- ing, 'I can not believe that trees and wood and atone will save me.'
