How a Soared Wildcat and a Fierce Bull Dog Entertained an Audience. [Gold Hill (Nev.) Nervs.] There was a fight advertised to come off at the Alhambra Theatre Sunday afternoon, between an East ern fighting bulldog named Turk and a forty-two pound wildcat, a vicious brute, for $100 a sido-that is, the cat and dog wore to fight for their lives and men bot $100 a side on the result. The fight was to be followed by a grand olio on the stage. It was an immonso bill, and it drew. In due Lime the cat vas in troduced upon the stage and was immediately followed by Turk ; but at the first kiss of the dog the cat took to the audience, and the olio, instead of being poformed by the troupe, was done by the spoectators, tooth and toe-nail accompaniment. The first bound of the cat took it upon the piano of the orchestra. The pawer of ivory left the swelling strain unfinished, and turned a back handspring over among the audi ence. The next leap of the "var mint" was at the contrabass, and both player and instrument went down instanter with broken beads. The cat lingered lovingly a monient among the strings as if to test. their quality, and then sprang out among the audience. Then began an oli' in dead earnest, but not the ono adver - tised, although the fight was over. It consisted of ground and lofty tumbling, leapfrog and such liko feats of dexterity, all having a single objet-to amuse the audience by a glimpse of sunlight out of doors and under the free light of Heaven once more. It was perfectly satisfactory as a whole, and each player did his best. Time-shortest on record 1:69. Everything went off well, espocially the audience. The cat was found a few minutes lator look ing out of one of the boxes and waiting for an encore. A NEW UsE FOIR WARTs.-DP. Charles A. Seale, of New Yor'k, an-1 nounces in the Mledical Record that. warts of the hand can be used with| better results than small pices of normal skin, in skin grafting, ini consequence of being easily separa ted, uninjured, in to numerous cylin - drical rods of great vascularity, and' containing a large proportion of1 hypotropied epithelium, which when planted in healthy granulating tissue, readily adapt themselves to.i the new soil. receiving direct nourishment, and quickly growing as starting pqints for a new and I smooth epitholial covering. In one case, in which there haz - been complete destruction of all the skin on the dorsum of the foot. in volving to a great extent the deep cellular tissue, and where for sevo ral weeks no healing advanced, grafts of freshly removed wvarts from the p)atient's hand immediately started little islands of now tissue, which rapidly increased, until they coalesced and met the margins of the border skin, thereby completely' covering the foot by firm, protecting:] -- integum~ent.-Sienti/ic Am merican.
