White's travels in Cochin China, the then viceroy gave him a magnificent tigress five feet long and three feet high. On reaching Saigon, where he found . dogs dirt cheap.he used to give his pet one of these animals every day. The dog was thrown alive into her cage. She would play with it awhile, as a cat i plays with a mouse; then her eyes would j begin to glisten and her tail to quiver; I she seized her prey by the scruff of the neck, aud in a minute or two it was all up with poor "bow wow." One day, however, a puppy, seeming ly in no way different from the com mon herd of puppies, instead of tamely submitting to his fate, showed fight, lt snapped at the tigress' nose, and bit it till the blood came. The tigress, far from resenting the attack, seemed to treat it as a joke; and when the spirited little dog grew tired of the fun, the tigress patted it as If it had been a cub of her own. Then the two lay down side by side and had a comfortable nap. Thenceforth , they weru the best of friends, and to humor this queer friend ship Capt. White had a small hole cut in the tigress cage, that the puppy might go and come as it pleased. ft often look a trot abroad, but it always, returned to its dog-devouring friend. To test the extent of the tigress' af fection, a strange dog was offered to it one day at dinner-time, and was then hastily snatched from its hungry jaws, and the puppy fricud thrown into the cage. But, .strange to tell, friendship triumphed over the pangs of hunger— aud that, not on this occasion only, but whenever the captain's crew saw fit to repeal the experiment. mm A. Brother's Theory.

When Erastus Webber was in the wilds of Central Africa and he saw a venomous serpent leaping toward him he would whisk out a pair of dentist's forceps, which he always carried with him, seize the serpent by the head and extract his poison fangs before the snake had any idea of what he was do ing. He did this repeatedly, and I can vouch for it as true, because he told me himself. -*: . ~ lie managed tigers very easily. He had a large number of little mirrors attached to a spiral sprine. When ever a tiger leaped upon him, which a tiger was very apt to do every few days, he would adroitly slip this spring over the . tiger' s nose. This would bring the mirror directly in front of the the tiger's eyes, and he would see his own image re flected in the mirror, and takimr it for another mad tiger, would chase after it on the gallop. The tiger would keep up this chase until he fell down and died from exhaustion. In the meantime Erastus Webber would fit down in per fect ease and fan himself under a palm tree. This story was also told to me by Erastus himself, and so can -be re lied upon in every detail. . When Erautus was in South America he said he never, had. any trouble with J8Lsl_ THE TIOEK SEES HIMSELF.^ earthquakes. - Before going there he prudently look the. precaution' to prac- | tice high leaping, and was able to-jump perpendlcijarly to a prodigious. height. So whenever an earthquake; overtook him he would simply leap up in the air and stay there until it was over. This =tory is not founded on mere '- hearsay. Like the others,' it was told me by Eras tus himself. .Erastus said that in all his travels through the uncivilized region* of .both North ami South America he never had any trouble with the Indians. lt is true, as he admitted, that he was scalped tliii teen different times. But he went into the Indian country prepared. He always wore a false scalp, with red ink in the lining, and when the Indians cut it off it would bleed like a real scalp. So scalping never hurt him. and as it pleased the Indians, he rather encour aged the diversion. One time, when Erastus was standing under a tree near the equator, he saw a boa constrictor in the branches of the tree just in the act of leaping upon him. On the right, but a few feet distant, a large cougar was just about to spring. On his left hand, at about the same dis tance, was an alligator with jaws dis tended to receive him. But Erastus told me himself that he was not fright ened in the slightest degree. Just as the boa constrictor leaped from the limb, and his head, with eyes of molten fire, was hurled down upon Erastus, Erastus dodged the head, leaped up and caught the tail still resting on the limb, pulled it over the limb, as you would pull a rope, over a pulley, and drew it down until the head and. tail of the great snake dangled equally distant froth the ground. Then quicker thau a flash of lightning, he tied the tail part of the snake around the body of the cougar, and the head part of the snake about, the alligator, and so left them all three dangling in the air. ' The cougar jnst balanced the alligator, the alligator just balanced the cougar, and so the snake could neither go up nor down, but hung there with those equal weights dangling from each end of itself, unable to move oue way or the other. Erastus now quietly laid himself down and took a long and re freshing sleep. When he awoke they were still dangling in the air; and when he passed the same place, three years later, their white and ghastly skeletons were suspended from the tree aud rattled in the wind- I know this is true, for he gave me one of the loose teeth that had rattled out of the skeleton of the alligator. When Erastus came home from his long travels we were all very proud of him. We used to like to take him around and show him olf. He had been all over the world, and had so many ex citing stories of tnrilling adventure that we were all proud to be known as the acquaintances of such a man. When he told, for instance, how he was once ten days and ten nights with out even a plank to support himself, afloat in the Indian ocean; and how he escaped at last by killing a whale with his jack-knife, making- a balloon of his skin and inflating it with hot air by burning the whale's oil; and then climb ing into the balloon and floating off to Australia— when he told such stories as this, we were ail proud to be known as the acquaintances of such au experi enced and entertaining man. So we alwa\s liked to take Erastus around, because as acquaintances of his we ourselves shone, in a lesser degree, through his reflected glory. But we found it was dangerous to let him go off alone much, as he was always sure to come homo very badly mangled and dislocated. It was no unusual thing tor him to come home with his arms in the wrong place and his : feet inistnated. Unless he was watched he was always falling off the sidewalk and stumbling into gas trenches. He was so absorbed in the contemplation of his Australian and South American ail ventures that he was pretty sure" to walk into every coal hole and come home covered from lop to toe with blood and coal dust. :'-. ■■■-■ '-■• One time, while relating how, when he was traveling In the Libyan desert, he was taken up by a hurricane and carried thirty-seven miles iv the air, and only saved himself by making a parachute of his cane and his palm leaf fan— while ; he was telling this tale he walked into an elevator well, and fortu nately only broke one leg. j As sOon as he was able to hobble out. and while relating to a listener how he escaped from a mad elephant in India by adroitly tying the elephant's trunk in a -.bow knot around a palm tree, he 13 fell into a sewer and broke the oil.ji leg. We got so at last that we used to keep Erastus in the bouse all we could miring the winter season.- for every time he went out he was sure to get under a snow slide. Once while telling a friend how he es- I caoed from a shark in the Southern ! I acilic by shinning up a waterspout, he ! was s'.itick by a snow slide from the I roof of a dry goods store and his [ shoulder blade was broken. One time, while telling a friend how ! he was once buried in a coal mine ninety I feet below the surface, and how he broke through the great mass of roc* above him by piercing the earth with his penetrating glances,— while telling this story he was knocked down by a runaway horse, and two arms and three ribs were broken. One day he sat down over a lighted fuse in a granite quarry and began to tell how he had escaped from the center of a volcano into which he had fallen to the depth of I.COO feet. 1 wish I were permitted to give the details of tins miraculous escape. But 1 am un fortunately prevented from doing this because the fuse went off too soon. It was our purpose to erect a monu ment over the remains of a man of sued vast and varied achievements. But, I regret to say, we have failed in our pur pose by the fact that no remains were ever discovered.

"Are you aware of the fact," said a railroad insurance man yesterday, "that every company in our line makes money whenever there is a big accident? It may seem strange, but that Battle Creek wreck the other day in Michigan brought many a dollar into our pockets. The worse the accident the better it is for us. You see it is this way: An ap palling accident, we will say, takes place. It is nothing strange that we chance not to hold any risks there.
