When fire or aix years old be aaw an Indian woman throw her child to a crocodile that The animal weighed 1,000 pounds. missed the child, and the mother caught it as it ran back to her begging for its life, when she threw it again. This time the crocodile struck it with its claws, tore it into two pieces and ate it very quickly. She then reported her acts to the pagan priest, and he blessed her, saying to her, '"Go sin no more." He also was a cannibal. When he was min7 years .Id there were twenty-on- e isters who were caught traveling and prospecting for places to locate churches, and ore of these ministers was beheaded every morning by their high priest and his flosh cooked, and the natives were made to stand in a row and each one was given a part of the flesh, and they stood and ate it. This was continued every day for twenty one days, until all of the ministers were eaten up, and he ate part of twenty-on- e preachers. He says the natives never do eat one another unless one is taken in war or aa a missionary; that it is a mistaken idea that they slay one another to eat when this man and that is fat enough to eat ; that the beasts of the field never slay one of their kind to prey upon, and that the savages have never gotten to be lower than wild animals. Atlanta LaSh me at the tt'urtd.- - thirty years tLr dream of Paradisr Last" lingered is the brain of John Milton before he had Wiser- tu undertake tisr pleasant task. He meant it Uut only a the great ackieve-nse- nt of hi one life, but as an epic of the ago. At last the time came when as could write it. He bent to hi work with angle hearted devotion, tailed and carefully. He put into it prudigiuo leaning and inteUntual and power. Bet, alas! the poetic euthuiaasBS of hi splendid youth were gone. The lime of advancing age had got into his bone and hm brain. His hand and his poetry had haNM alike stiff and lumbering. "Paradise Loet" remains, a stuprud.ns work, full of massive jmwer, an epic which will be a classic as long as the English language lasts. But where are its fire, it pasnVoa and enthusiasm? Where the fine play and dash of poetic rainbow coloring? According to Henri Tame, they are lacking utterly. It is an ungracious thing to say, but Taine's criticism of "Paradise Lost" comes to mind on reading Sir Edwin Arnold's "Light of the World." Our 'l:ntian belief and modes of thought tend to make us judge favorably of the poem in advance. We naturally incline to place it above "The Light of Asia." t j 'hi so; Wr sh- - t to. who have conned those Nevertheless the pagea of "The Light of Asia" o'er and o'er, those to whom its sweet philosophy and musical cadences are familiar as household words, will, whether they confess it or not, feel a disappointment with "The Light of the World." A friend of Sir Edwin writes that this poein has been his daily and nightly dream for ten years, and that he intends it to stand as the crowning work of hi greatly gifted pen. So Milton thought ; so, too, like "Paradise Lost," "Th Light of the World" lacks the exquisite play of fancy, the infinite poetic grace and sweetness of the poet's earlier work. One feels with prophetic instinct that "The Light of Asia," not "The Light of the World," will stand as Sir Edwin Arnold's greatr in v- est poem. la a Fog. The oddest story of geese in the fop comes f r. in Norfolk, and was told to Mr. Stevenson, the author of "The Birds of Norfolk," by the Rev. H. T. Frere. A large flock of geese were attracted to the town of Diss on a foggy night by the lights, and from the sound of their voices seemed to fly scarcely higher than the tops of the houses. They came about 7 p. in., and, as it was Sunday evening, they appeared to be especially attracted by the lights in the church, and their incessant clamor not a little disturbed the congregation assembled for evening service. From that time until 2 a. m., when the fog cleared off and they departed, they continue to fly around utterly bewildered. One bird happened to fly so low as to strike a gas lamp outside (he town probably it was flying round the light--jus- t us a policeman was passing by, who very properly, as the bird was making a great noise outside a public house, took it into custody, and the next day it was with equal propriety sent off to a private lunatic asylum at Melton, where it livd for some years an honored guest. Spectator. When a Gentleman Seem- - Homeless. Do you know when an elegant, polished gentleman seems like a tramp? It is when he allows the impression to go out that he has no placa he can call home, or belongin J to himself individually, by using club stationery for all of his correspondence. Something about it is that smacks of snobbishness, poverty or secrecy more than of the dignity belonging to an exclusive or popular club. For a general address in the revolving of city life one's club is decidedly convenient, and there are certain notes and letters that have the cor-- , rect air when topped by the club name, monogram or coat of arms, but when a man confines himself to the club stationery for his business letters, his formal and informal notes and all social letters it calls up that class of men who board at inferidr hotels and slip around to well known high priced ones and help themselves to the paper that is left in the reading and writing rooms for the use of the guests. Chicago Herald. there Lamp Shaken. Many of those gorgeous lamp shades eye from half a dozen show windows on Fifth avenue are made at home by women who have seen the proverbial "better days." The work renicety of taste and skill in needle- that bewilder the quires work. Designs and materials are furnished sometimes by the shopkeeper, sometimes by the women that do the work. The largest shades are made over parasol frames. The materials entering into the work are silk, satin, lace and artificial flowers. Prices of the mora elaborate shades vary from $16 to $50, bo that the cost of a handsome lamp fully equipped may ran up to $300. In some cases milliners also make lamp shades, and the fact that they are able to utilize remnants of silks and of other materials gives them a peculiar advantage in this business. New York Sun. .

The American dressed beef plan will probably be soon tried in India. There, on account of caste prejudice, the natives will touch no meat slaughtered and handled by Christians, or much of any other kind. On the other hand, there are vast numbers of English government and army employes who do eat meat continually, and want more than they get. Very few of the natives in India will slaughter an animal on account of their religion, considering the killing of quadruped creatures for food a horror. It comes about, therefore, that the Englishman's meat in India must lie shipped to him at great expense, except what he can kill in hunting or otherwise. The British government has therefore turned its eyes upon the great slaughtering plants of the American dressed beef packers, with a view of establishing at least one similar one in India. Negotiations are at present in progress looking to the erection by a well known Chicago firm of a slaughtering plant in India The employes will be natives, and if they want to eat meat they themselves have killed and dressed they can do so, and meantime the Britons, who are not particular who slaughters their beef, can be supplied. Professor Harper, of Yale, the new president of the new university of Chicago, will endeavor to make the western school the typical university of the future. His idea of the model school is one that never stops, but goes on all the year around. There should be four terms of twelve weeks each. Further, the course should be so adapted to the needs of all students that a learner might pursue a single study if he so desired. Then professors might swing round the circle, and noted specialists need not confine their labors to a single college, but could give students all over the country the benefit of their knowledge from time to time. But it is by no means the right thing, in Professor Harper's opiuion, that all the colleges in the country should be closed a fourth of the time. The true university ought to begin, and then, like Tennyson's brook, go on forever. A strange sentiment, that was which was recently uttered by the leader of the clerical party in the German reichstag, if the words of Dr. Windhorst have been correctly reported. The sentiment occurred in a toast to the American minister at a banquet given to members of the reichstag. Except our tariff law, which he did not like, Herr Windhorst assured his comrades that the United States was still the model by the imitation of which Germany might insure the spread of happiness and liberty among the people. What is more remarkable, the sentiment was heartily applauded by members of the German jiarliament. This has in it almost a note of treason to the empire which Bismarck built upon blood and iron.
