THE CAMEL'S REVENGE.

A Strange Story of a Stnptd Beast** Anger. The camel is stupid save when angry, and then seems to become suddenly possessed with an intelligence almost preternatural In carrying out Its vengeful designs. P&lgrave relates the following story of a camel’s revenge, which serves to illustrate this point: A lad of 14 had conducted a large camel, laden with wood from one village to another, at a half-hour’s distance. As the animal loitered, or turned out of the way, Its conductor struck it repeatedly, and harder than it seemed to have thought he had a right to do. But not finding the occasion favorable for taking immediate quits, It bode its time. That time was not long In coming. A few days later the same lad had to recouduct the beast, but unladen, to his own village. When they were about half way on the road, and at some distance from any habitation, the camel suddenly stopped, looked deliberately round in every direction to assure itself that no one was Within sight, and, finding the road far and near clear of passers-by. made a step forward, seized the unlucky boy’s head in its monstrous mouth and. lifting him up in the air, flung him down again on tlie earth with the upper part of his skull completely torn off and his brains scattered on the ground. Having thus satisfied its revenge, the brute quietly resumed its pace toward the village as though nothing were the matter, till some men, who had observed the whole, though unfortunately at too great a distance to be able to afford timely help, came up and killed it.—St. Paul’s. Prince Albert, Sask., August 17, 1898. William McCreary, Esq., Immigration Commissioner, Winnipeg, Man.: Sir—We, the undersigned delegates from Kansas and Nebraska, U. S. A., In reporting the results 6t our trip to Dauphin, and subsequently to Regina, Prince Albert and the middle Saskatchewan country, beg to say that our tickets were limited to twenty-one days, and as we had other large regions to visit, we could only spend a short time in he Dauphin country. We examined, however, the principal cultivated areas in the southern parts of township 25, range 19, the great wheat fields of Wishart, Buchanan, Owen, Smith, Ross, Sinclair, the Whitmores, Driukwaters, etc., and, subsequently, others to the north, and never, In our experience, have we seen finer grain. The whole country is watered by numerous streams flowing from the slopes of Riding Mountain, and excellent well water is found everywhere, at from nine to eighteen feet. Extensive forests of spruce and tamarack cover the northern parts of the mountains, from which timber is manufactured in Dauphin and elsewhere, and sold at from sl2 a thousand at the mills. Wild hops and wild fruits are abundant, and ripen in the open air.. Vegetation throughout Is surprisingly luxuriant and, without hesitation, we would rank the whole region among the best graingrowing areas of the continent. The output of wheat last year was about 75,000 bushels, but this year it is estimated at over a million. Westward lie the homestead lands which now, and when fresh surveys are completed, will afford comfortable, homes to thousands of diligent families. The great Gilbert Plains also we were unable to visit, where graingrowing has been conducted with the best results for years, and which will become a vast wheat field as soon as a branch railway reaches there. Settlement is speeding in all these regions, reminding us indeed of the early days In our own States; and as we have examined, since our visit to Dauphin, a portion of the great country lying south and east of Prince Albert we can readily Imagine the tide of immigration which will soon flow into the Canadian West (Signed.)

Severe Rebuke.

Constable, the famous painter, once gave a remarkable instance of the ' sweetness of his temper, which scarcely anything could ruffle. The story is told by Julian Charles Young, whose , uncle' had witnessed its Incident. He called on Constable one day, and was received by him In bis frout room. After half an hour's chat, the artist proposed to repair to the back room to Bbow him a large picture on whlcb be was engaged. Ou walking up to bis easel, be found that one of bis little boys, In his absence, bad dashed the handle of the hearth-broom through the canvas, and made so large a rent In It as to render Its restoration Impossible. He called the chi|d up to him, and asked hint gently if he had done It When tit* boy admitted his act, Constable took blm on his knee and rebuked him In these unmeasured terms: “Oh, my dear pet! See what We have done! Dear, dear! What shall we do to mend it? I can’t think, can you?”

GOVERNOR M’CORD

Recommends Pe-ru-na to All Catarrh Victims.

HON. H. M. McCORD.

Hon. Myron H. McCord, ex-Governor of New Mexico, in a letter to Dr. Hartman, from Washington, D. C., says: Gentlemen—At the suggestion of a friend I was advised to use Pe-ru-na for catarrh, and after using one bottle I began to feel better in every way. It helped me in many respects. I was troubled with colds, coughs, sore throat, etc., but as soon as I had taken your medicine I began to improve and soon got well. I take pleasure in recommeuding your great remedy to all who are afflicted with catarrh.—M. H. McCord. Thousands of cases of chronic catarrh have been cured by Te-ru-na during the past winter. In spite of changeable weather, in spite of the natural setbacks from catching cold, and confinement to lily ventilated rooms, the great catarrh remedy—Pe-ru-na—has effected these cures. But now spring is here. The days are longer, the sun. is warmer, and the blizzard is gone for another year. This presents a much more favorable opportunity for the permanent cure of chronic catarrh, especially old, stubborn cases. Now is the time to begin treatment. Other things being equal, one month’s treatment in the spring is worth two months’ treatment during the inclement weather of winter. Insist upon having Pe-ru-na. There are no successful substitutes for this remedy. Send to Dr. Hartman, Columbus, Ohio, for a free catarrh book.

Arab and the Ostrich.

The Arabs have a curious legend to account for the ostrich’s residence in the desert On a certain appointed day, 6o the story runs, all created beings met together to decide upon their respective order and precedence. All went smoothly until the ostrich, pleading its Inability to fly, disowned the birds, and claimed to take rank with tbe mammals. These, however, would have nothing to say to a creature clothed not with fur, but with feathers; while the birds, when It went dejectedly back, repudiated it also as a traitor to its race. The ostrich, however, was equal to the occasion, and declared' that, being neither mammal nor bird, it must be an angel; whereupon all tbe other animals indignantly rushed upon it and drove it before them into the desert, where It has lived in solitude ever since, with no one to contradict it.

A ROGUE CAUGHT .

Keenness of s Newspaper Man Brings the Guilty to Justice. Sir Charles Gavan Duffy, in his personal memoirs entitled “My Life In Two Hemispheres,” relates an incident of his journalistic life In Dublin, which Illustrates the keenness of discernment which gives eminence to the born Journalist, whose business it is to seek facts for the public. Mr. Duffy called one day at the Dublin police office, while a case was being beard which Involved the liberty of a man named Collins. James Donnelly, the complainant, was tbe servant of a gentleman, and had become a Protestant He told the magistrate this story: Since he became a Protestant his fel-low-servants, Catholics, had shown 111 will, and be bad received anonymous letters, adorned with coffins and crossbones, threatening his life if he did not return to the “true fold.” One day, while he was exercising his employer’s horses, two men armed with pistols held him up, and asked him if he had not received tbe “warning letters.” He admitted that he bad, but declared that he would be torn in pieces before he would give up his new religion. Thereupon one of the men, Collins, snapped a pistol at him. It did not go off, and the horses kicked so viciously that tbe two men ran away. Collins, tbe prisoner, must have had knowledge of the anpnymous letters, said Donnelly, “because he asked me if I had received them.” Collins denied the charge, and said he had never seen Donnelly before he saw him in court, and had only heard of him as the tuau whom the prisoner’s sister, a fellow - servant, had mused to marry. Duffy, the reporter, having an eye for facts, suspected that Donnelly was lying. He asked the magistrate, an acquaintance, to let him look at the anonymous letters. Finding in thorn several words misspelled and several peculiarly shaped letters, he told the magistrate that he suspected Donnelly of writing the letters. He framed a sentence containing the misspelled words, and the magistrate asked Donnelly if he could write. “Yes, your worship.” “Write this sentence, which I will dictate,” said the magistrate. Donnelly wrote, but after he had written a few words became agitated and declined writing. The magistrate sternly bade him write on until he had copied tbe sentence. When the manuscript was examined it was found to contain all the misspelled words of the anonymous letters and all the ill-shaped letters. Collins was discharged, and Donnelly was dismissed from bis master's service. Duffy, the reporter, whose scent for facts had secured the discharge of the prisoner, was promoted to tbe position of sub-editor. The incident is paralleled by several in the experience of American reporters, whose “nose” for facts bad been more sensitive than that of trained detectives.

Gowns of a Philippine Bride.

There is a cloth here which is manufactured of pineapple fiber, and is called pinas cloth. Tbe texture is as delicate as a spider’s web, and in the hands of the women is fashioned into the most wonderful designs. I have seen small handkerchiefs which cost SIOO apiece, and lace sleeves which run as high as S2OO apiece. When a Philippine lady of the better class gets married she sometimes wears as her wedding dress a costume of native manufacture that reaches in value up into four figures. It takes months to make a handkerchief or a sleeve or a neckerchief. so microscopic and delicate is the fabric. Considering tbe costliness of the finer kind of native needlework, it is hardly probable that the soldiers will take borne many trunkfuls for exhibition purposes.

No Such Thing as Depravity.

An Illustration.

There’* something to be said upon both sides of every question. For example; Mr. Smith, an acquaintance of ours, bought a ticket on the Sound steamer, and at tbe same time asked for a stateroom. He was Informed that all the rooms were taken. This was discouraging to Smith, but a happy thought struck him. “I asked to have a room held for me,” be said. "Oh, you did?” asked the ticket seller. “What name, please?” “Smith.” After examining his memorandum the ticket seller said: “Beg pardon, sir; I see there are two rooms held for you, Numbers 41 and 42.” “I don’t understand that,” said the other, "I only wanted one room. I’ll take 42, if you please.” So he got his room all because his name was Smith; which shows that it is a good thing to have a name that is somewhat common. But you ask, “How about the Mr. Smith who lost one of the two rooms be had engaged?” Why that proves what we started out with, that there’s something to be said on both sides of every question.

Doctor Homes’ Partner.

The following flash of wit proves beyond a doubt that the late Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes was occasionally associated with another as brilliant as himself: He used to dabble a little Iq photography, and once when he presented a picture to a friend, he wrote on the back: “Taken by Oliver Wendell Holmes and Sun.”
