We have all heard of tin weddings, celebrated after 10 years of marriage, of crystal weddings, after 15 years, of •China weddings, after 20, of silver, af- ter'245, of gold, after 50, and of diamond after 75—or, as Europeans celebrate it. after 62} years. But the scale of cele- brations does not seem to extend any farther, and one wonders whatprecious thing would be selected to give its name to a wedding anniversary recent- ly celebrated in Hungary— the 100th anniversary of the marriage of Jean Szathmary and his wife. This• appears to be a circumstance which is entirely impossible. But the marriage of this aged pair is duly and officially recorded as having taken place in May, 1793, at which time, ac- cording to the record, they were of marriageable age. As in Hungary at that time a bridegroom must have reached the age of 20 and a bride that of 15, the pair must now be at least 120 and 115 years old. The 100th anniver- sary was celebrated at the town of Zsombolyi, in the Banat, which has for a long time allowed the venerable cou- ple a pension in recognition of their great age and fidelity to each other. Even the oldest residents of Zsom- bolyi have no other recollection of Jean Szathmary and his wife than as old people. Not one relative of either sur- vives. Their century of wedded life is so well and officially attested that many notables and Hungarian officials attended the anniversary celebration, and gave them many presents. INVESTIGATION INVITED. Of course it is proper to enquire about what any man says, Is it true. The most rigor investigation is invited into the testimonials published in behalf of Hood's Sarsaparilla. Speoial attention is called to the high character of the persona whose testimonials are published by the proprietors of this medioine, as evidenced by their occupations or indorsements. In fact, no matter where a testimonial in be- ilf of hood's Sarsaparilla may be -Iourid, it is reliable and as worthy of confidence as if it came from your moot trusted neigh- bor. WHAT TROUBLED HIM. The habit potentates have of travel- ling incog, frequently causes suffering where it is least expected. It is told of the Emperor Joseph Second, that once, while travelling in this fashion, he put up at an inn kept by an Englishman. After eating a few slices of ham and biscuit, he went to bed. In the morn- ing he paid his bill and departed. A few hours after, several of his suite ar- rived, and hearing' the rank of his guest, the landlord appeared much troubled. "Pshaw, manl" said one; "Joseph is accustomed to such adventures, and will think no more •of it." "But I shall," said mine host, "and never forgive myself for having had an Emperor In my house and letting him off for three and sixpencel"—From Harper's Young People. "'Only the Scars Remain," Says HENRY HUDSON, of the James Smith Woolen Machinery (;o, Philadelphia, Pa., who cert.: fies as follows: " Among the many testimoni- als which I see in regard to cer- tain medicines performing cures, cleansing the blood, etc., none impress me more than my own ease. Twenty years ago, at the age of 18 years, I had swellings come on my legs, which broke and became run- ning sores. Our family phy sician could do me no good, and it was feared that the 't•or:es would be affected. At last, my good other Urged Me to try Ayo?flisapar1lla.

I have been on the road for the past twelve years, have noticed Ayer's Sar- saparilla advertised in all parts of the IJuitr d States, and always take pleas- ure in telling what good it did for me."

It is to be noted at the outset that, until Mr Cleveland acted, the sympathies of the office -holding peo- ple, so far as they expressed them- selves, were with the strikers. The Governors of Illinois, Kansas, and Colo- rado, the Mayors of Chicago and De- troit, all lent their countenance, and some their aid, to the Pullman strik- ers. Even Senator Sherman seized the inopportune moment to assail the Pull- man Company. It was only after the popular response to the President's order to the troops and his telegrams to Altgeld, that Congress found its voice sufficiently to denounce violence, and to commend the President for en- forcing the laws of the United States. Ili the mean time the attitude of most of the law -makers at Washington was pitiable. In their fear of losing votes they begged the newspaper rdporters not to interview them on the subject. They wanted to avoid any expression of opinion that might inflame against them, not peaceful organized labor, not strikers who had merely quit their em- ployment, not even strikers who were engaged in inducing other laborers not to take their places, but violators of the law defiant of all authority, ene- mies of the public peace and of the government. All this does not look as if law -makers were the eager tools of capital, but rather as if they were more likely to be the fearful slaves of organ- ized labor.

HOW WILD BEASTS DIFFER IN STRENGTH AND FIERCENESS. It is the opinion of tamers that the tiger is more to be feared than the lion. One will kill a man with as much ease as the other; but the lion gives fair warning of his murderous intention by rushing at his victim with a roar, whereas the tiger, true representative of the cat tribe, comes sneaking up with the semblance of an affectionate puri', only to set his fangs, with sudden spring, into the very life of his victim. The lion has somewhat greater mus- cular power than the tiger, but the lat- ter has greater quickness. In intelli- gence they are about equal. If a lion and a strong horse were to pull in opposite directions, the horse would pull the lion backward with comparative ease; but if the lion were hitched behind the horse and facing in the same direction, and were allowed to exert his strength in backing, he could easily pull the horse down upon his haunches, or drag' him across the ring, so much greater is his strength when exerted backwards from the hind legs than in forward pulling. A lion springing throigli the air from adis- tance of six feet would knock down a horse or bullock with a single blow of his fore -arm, backed by the momentum of his three hundred pounds' weight. A full grown lion in the jungles will lamp twenty-five or thirty feet on the evel from a running start. In captivi- ty the same lion would clear a distance about half as great. A lion can jump over a fence eight or ten feet high, but not at a bound. He catches first his fore legs and drags his body after him. I have repeatedly watched the lion Yellow Prince jump over the tigers with a bound which would have cleared an obstacle four or five • feet above the floor. Tigers will jump a trifle higher than this. But of all wild animals the leopards are the greatest jumpers, be- ing able to hurl their lithe and beauti- ful bodies, curled up almost into a ball. extraordinary heights. They bound with ease, for instance, from the floor of the cage so as to touch a ceiling twelve feet high. For a short distance a lion or a tiger can out run a man and can equal the speed of a fast horse, but they lose their wind at the end of half a mile at the most. They have little endurance, and are remarkably weak in lung pow- er. Their strength is the kind which is capable of a terrific effort for a short time. It would take six men to hold e lion down, even after his legs were tied so that he could not use his paws. A bine book issued by Sir W. Robinson, the Governor of Hong Kong, reports that 120,000 people died of the plague in the Can- ton district. Adolphus Martin, the wealthy Maidstone farmer who was accused of cuttingthe eyes out of some of his pigs because they insisted in getting into his crops, was on Monday fined $20 and costs, a total of 846, or two months in jail. The fine was paid, and Martin's lawyer gave notice of appeal Fire in a large frame barn owned by Daniel Mnrphy, Mount Forest, destroyed a hundred tons of hay, 25 head of fat cattle, six hos, one driving horse, a steam thresh- er, and a lot of farm implements. The estimated total lose is over $7,000. Insur- ance 82,400. • The two hundredth anniversary of the establishment of ono of the most notable institutions in Great Britain, the Bank of England, was celebrated Friday, the char- ter of incorporation of the bank having been granted on July 27, 1694, by William and Mary. The celebration was conducted by the officials of the bank and participated in by the attaches of the institution and a arge number of pleats, WELL KNOWN LONDON PEOPLE SAY: Mr S. F. Glass, London Pottery Works, says:—"No testimonials can be too strong to express the beneficial effects I have ex- perienced from the use of R. Stark's (Head- ache; Neuralgia and Liver) Powders per- sonally and in my family,.as they have af. forded me perfeot relief from the most dis- tressing sink headaches which frequently incapacitated me from doing business. I know of others equally benefited. I consid- er them one of the most armful medical combinations of the day," Mr H. 0. Paterson, of Messrs Masuret & Co„ wholesale grooers, says:—"I have found Skark's Powders for Sick Headache, Billiousnesp and Liver, to afford immed. late and permanent relief in every case." Mrs L.

It is understood that the Roman Catholics of Brandon, Man., are con- templating taking steps to place their schools under the provisions of the Public Schools Act. Sir Donald Smith's herd of Buffalo, at Silver Heights, Man., have broken the enclosure and are roaming over the prairie. Every effort is being made to recapture them, as they are the only herd of prairie buffalo in the Northwest. "Canal thou minister to a mind dims - ed?" says Macbeth. Certainly, my lord; the oondition of the mind depends largely, if not solely, on the condition of the atom - soh, liver, and bowels, for all of which complaints Ayer's Pills are "the sovereign. est thing on earth." Mr R. S. V. Palmer, whose neck wat broken by diving in shallow water, as Niagara -on -the -Lake a week ago, has been taken to the general hospital in Toronto. The doctors regard recovery as impossible, although the unfortu- nate man may linger some time. The Australian lady bird, an insect which makes war on fruit tree pests, has been admitted to the United States mails. Yankee fruit growers have been importing them, and experience shows that they prove very effective in clearing scale insects from the trees. The preying of one insect upon another is one•of nature's compensations. A wondorful story is that of the ori- gin and growth of the coffee .planta- tions in Nyassaland. When (some six- teen years ago) Mr Buchanan was go- ing out to Central Africa as horticul- turist to the Church of Scotland Mis- sion, the curator of the Edinburgh Botanical gardens presented him with a sickly little coffee tree, which was not thriving well in those gardens. This tree reached the African Shire Highlands alive, 'and being planted at Blantyre throve mightily, flowered, bore fruit and became the parent taee of the five millions which are now pro- ducing thousands of pounds worth:of coffee berries.

Hazeltine, Warren, Pa 6 T11)I LION'S AND ELE>PI ANT'S FEAR OF A MOUSE. One day Philadelphia, wishing to test the affection popularly supposed to exist between a lion and a mouse, put a mouse in the cage of a full-grown Nubian lion, The lion saw the mouse before he was fairly through the bars, and was after him instantly. Away went the little fellow, scurrying in fright. When tie had gone about ten feet the lion sprang, lighting a little in front of him. The mouse turned, and the lion sprang again. This was re- peated several times, the mouse, traversing a short distance after each spring of the lion. It was demonstrat- ed that a lion is too quick for a mouse, at least in a large cage. Finally the mouse stood still, squealing and trem- bling. The lion stood over, studying him with interest. Presently he shot out his big paw and brought it down directly upon the mouse; but so gently that the mouse was not injured in the least, though held fast between the claws. Then the lion played with him in the most extraordinary way, now lift- ing his paw and letting the mouse run a few inches, and then stopping him again as before. Suddenly the mouse changed his tactics, and, instead of running when the lion lifted his paw, sprang into the air straight at the lion's head. The lion, terrified, gave a great leap ba&k, striking the bars with all his weight, and shaking the whole floor. Then he opened his great jaws and roared again, while the mouse, still squealing, made his escape. Of the two the lion was more frightened. It is a fact well known in all men- ageries, that a mouse will frighten an elephant more than will a locomotive. Let one appear in an elephant's stall, and the elephant, his mountain of flesh quivering, his trunk lashing the air, will trumpet in abject, terror; and •he will not recover for hours afterward. The trainers say that what the elephant fears is, that the mouse will .gun up his trunk. There is a tradition that a mouse really did this in one instance while an elephant was sleeping, and caused the elephant such intense pain that he had to be killed.
