l';3LISHED EVERY THURSDAY AT XCWBERRY .S. C. DYING JUGGERNAUT. THE ONCE FAMOUS INDIAN GOD HAS HAD HIS DAY. No More Fanatics Anxious for Death Denr:ath the Cruel Wheels - Coolles Hired to Drug the Car Once Drawn by Devotees. The announcement that the once tamous festival of .Juggernaut has so declined in popularity as to render it necessary for the priests to hire coolies to drag the car, is a measure of the extent to which the destrue tive solvent of western thought is being applied to eastern creeds. The car of the great god of Pooree was one of the most sacred of llrahmiuic "proprieties," and the Ruth Juttra a festival which, in im portance, yielded to that of no other deity in the llindoo Pantheon. From every part of the vast empire of Hindostan pil grims flocked to share in it, and when the car of Ju;ggernaut was dragged once a year from the temple in order to bathe the gods in the cool water of the tank, a mile and a half distant, the wildest en thusiasm seized the vast multitude of de votees. Thousands rushed to seize the cables, and so eager were the voluuteers for this holy service that the beet and greatest men of Orissa struggled with each other to obtain a hold upon the ropes. To use the language of an old writer who witnessed the Rath Jattra in its palmy days, "they are so greedy and eager to draw it that whosoever, by shouldering, crowding, shoving, heaving, thrusting, or in any insolent way, can but lay a hand upon the rope they think themselves blessed and happy. And when it is going along the city there are many that will offer themselves as a sacrifice to the idol, and desperately lie down on the ground thgy, r igtmhyp ay run over them, whereby they are killet'vtrie Some get broken arms, some broken legs, so that many are destroyed, and think to merit heaven." IN FIONOIt OF THE GOL. At e- en a later date martyrs to Jugger naut, or Jagganna'th, as he is more cor rectly termed. were not infrequent. When Francis Buchanan was in Pooree early in this century, he describes the harsh grat ing of the gigantic car as it moved along, the obscene songs of the priests in honor of the god, and the fierce glances which the fanatics bestowed on the beef eating Englishmen, as a pilgrim announced him self ready to become a sacrifice to the idol. No one daring or caring to prevent the self-immolation, the man prostrated himself in the road before the tower as it moved along, lying on his face with his arms stretched forward. The multitude pressed around him, leaving the .pace clear, until he was crushed to death by the wheels of the ponderous structure. Then a wild cry of praise was raised, and as the god was seen to "smile" at the libation of spouting blood the devotees throw cowries and pieces of money on the body of the victim in approbation of the holy deed by which he had won immor talitv in the Hindoo Walhalla. It is. therefore, suggestive of a strange revolution in Hindoo opinion to hear that not only are victims lacking, but that, in stead of thousands struggling for the honor of a place at the drag ropes, labor ing men, at so many annas per diem, have to be hired to perform the sacred func tion. The awe of the Indian people for "the lord of the world'' has been declin ing. For many years past the fame of the great god of Orissa has been on the wane, and the time when a human sacri fice wvas deliberately offered up to the hideous idol is fast getting beyond the -- power of the very oldest of the old Indians *o recall. NUMBER OF DEVOTEEs. Admitting that the number of devotees this year is smaller owing to the loss of two pilgrim ships-and the prophecy that a third will be wrecked before the year is out -it is undeniable that Jagganna'th is doomed, and the wealth which it brought to the priest and the towns people of Pooree is likely to vanish before many years elapse. Sometimes a poor de crepit wretch, weary of life or drugged by the priests with Indian hemp or opium, will wildly throw himself in front of the wheels, though he is usually dragged out by the police, who have orders to prevent any attempts at suicide. Saddest abase ment of all, from the standpoint of Brah minaism, it happened a few years ago, for the first time in history, that, to the hor ror and chagrin of the priests, the car of Jagganna'th stood still in the streets of Pooree, while the pilgrims looked on in impious apathy. Yet no harm befell them, although a subsequent famine has been attributed to their sacrilegious careless ness. However, the result has been that, though worshipers still come to Pooree, they just as frequently prefer to save themselves the troubMe of hauling the gods, and as has happened on the present occasion, the priests, afraid of the idols never reaching the tank, have contracted with irreverential coolies to perform the job for a stipulated number of rupees. Mortality there is, of course, still. The poor die for want of food, of disense, and of lack of proper accommodation. But there is no longer any need for interfer ing, for the wrong will soon right itself by Jagganna'th ceasing to "draw." The east, we fear, is already grown lax in its religious observances. The pilgrim takes a third class circular ticket to the holy place. infidel shiipowners issue passes to D'jeddah,. and a tourist contractor escorts the faithful over the forty miles between Mecca and the sea. The Egyptian der vishes are becoming extremely chary about making a pavement of their persons for the Saadeeyeh Sheyk to ride over, and now that the Indian exchequer is bemoan ing the reduced returns from the "Jag ganna'th trade," and coolies have to be hired to drag the car, we seem a long way from the time when .Job Charnock, factor at Fort William, was converted to Hlin dooism, or when Gen. Stewart engaged a Brahmin to perform daily worship among the idols in his bungalow.-Lonidon Stan dard. Women and MXont Blanic. Sixty-one women in all have made the ascent of Mont Blanc. "The fact is tes tified,"~ says a correspondent of Galignani. '"by the antique register religiously kept at the office of the guides at Chamonix, as everybody may see for himself. The book is a more faithful record than one might expect. Just as on some ill fated precipiee on the Alps a wooden cross m.arks the spot wvhere a too adventurous climber has met his death, so here a lugubrious cross is set agamnst the name of every victim who has failed to reach his journey's end, and the oft recurring formula, 'Requiescat in pace,' may per haps account for the reluctance with which the book is shown to intending ex cursionists. "The first female ascent of the giant of the Alps was made by two French women, one of aristocratic and the other of ple beian birth. Their example was quickly followed in after seasons, and in the~ end the record stands as follows: English wom'e. 32; French women. 15; Russian *women, 4: American women. 3: Swiss women, 2. and Prussian. Danish. Hun garian, Italian and Austrian, 1 each. Eleven of these ladies accompanied the'r husbands. The mania for making ascents, through evil and good report, has this year been rather conspicuous. the excur sions to the summit having numbered thirty-nine as against an average _of eleven. The French on this occasion have taken the lead, followed not very closely by Englishmen and English women, and still further off by Ameri :-ans and Germans. Most of the French who have ventured forth to the summit are members of the Alpine club, while those of other nationalities depend for the most part upon their own resources or the ~omnz1 of gnides."-Pall Mall Gazette. Cnauncey .. Depew at Homburg. "Where were you besides iu Londoz,? ? "Principally in Homburg. Everythmg Is arranged i' Homburg to make you stay. On your arrival the landlord looks at you sympatheticaily and says: 'It's ' well you came when you did. You had better see the doctor Immediately.' "Everybody says the same thing to you -the man that stands behind your chair V and the man that brushes your coat. a Pietty soon you begin to believe yourself k that it is well you have come, and wonder a what's the matter with you. Then, after la a little struggle with your old, healthy self, you give in and go to the doctor. I did it, and I haven't been sick for ten years. The doctor says you had better stay at least three weeks and take the waters. It is singular how unanimot3 8 every one is in advising you to stay. "Well, you take the waters, and you n must take them just as you are told, P whether you like it or not. You really L don't like it at all, but you hardly dare a think so to yourself. At 6 o'clock you ti get up, go down to the spring, and drink a cue glass. Then you walk a quarter of a b mile and come back and drink another o glass. Then walk half a mile and drink another. Then walk a mile and drink a final glass, and you are done with that part of the day's toil. "They won't allow you to commute drink half a dozen glasses at once and walk a couple of miles. 'After the water servitude you take a P pine bath. That's a curious custom. It E consists of pouring a pint of condensed f essence of pine sap into a tub of water b and in wallowing around in it. The water a is as black as ink. You only feel happy t when you have taken another bath after- b ward and washed it off."-New York Herald Interview. y In a Japanese Theatre. There are two tiers of boxes, the lower n of which is provided with sliding paper P doors, forming small rooms like bathing f machines. The pit is divided by low cross bars into squares, reminding one of the cattle pens of old Smithfe4,ich capable of holding four peons comfort ably. A Japanese. !u'ly bent upon en joyment engra a compartment for the a day in & Isition suited to the purse-in t the iddle of the house if well to do, t 'earer to the stage or to the back accord- u ing to the scarcity of coin -and, having r deposited clogs in the yestiaire, take up a J position with 'cushions, kettle, tea things, L smoking tray, and never move till mid- c night, except to pay visits to friends. A t Japanese theatrical performance com mences generally at early dawn and lasts a dozen hours. The stage occupies the end of the build ing from wall to wall. Oddly, the actors do not make their appearance from the side or back (there are no wings), butstrut 1 along a narrow platform over the heads of t the pit by means of just such a boarded f footway as is used by European conjurers. s Faithful to the canon of no illusion, the a performers stand ready dressed in an open place off the entrance lobby, where all t who come in may see them; when they t hear their cue they push through a knot of loiterers and march to the stage along the platform, acting as they go. Indeed, important portions of a scene which de mands a rapid exit are frequently gone through upon this narrow footway and not on the str.. at all; and the effect is apt to be unintentionally comic, when a I small Tarquin is seen staggering along 4 under a full blown Lucrece, while the t stationary chorus from their distant cor- 1 ner are entreating him to respect her vir- C tue.-Murray's Magazine. t A Sneak Thief's Dodge. f A new dodge in the workingman in dis tress line. A keen eyed fellow, with a most villainous expression, halted me at 2 1 in the morning in Madison square and de- 1 manded, civilly enough, if I did not want to buy his coat-which garment he proceeded to strip off when I stopped him. He was a bookkeeper out of a job, he said. In spite of his sinister and forbidding face I was on the point of giving him the price of his lodgings when he gave a shout and1 stared at a dead run over grass and seats.C He had caught sight of an approaching park policeman. The officer told me het had halted a number of persons with the same plea ashe had made to me and the I same offer and had got money from several. 1 "He's a sneak thief, just dowu from Sing Sing," said the officer. "Didn't you 1 notice how short his hair was and how yellow his complexion?" Here are signs by which you may know Sing Sing's pensioners, it seems.-Alfred1 Trumble in New York News. Minimum Army Transportation. The throwing away of superfluous con veniences began at daybreak. The old campaigner knows what to carry and what to throw away. Each group of I messmates decided which hatchet, stew 1 pan or coffee pot should be taken. The t single wagon allowed to a battalion car-a ried scarcely more than a gripsack andt blanket, and a bit of shelter tent about 1 the size of a large towel for each officer, and only such other material as was nec-t essary for regimental business. Trans portation was reduced to a minimum, and fast marching was to be the order of the day. Wagons to carry the necessary am munition in the contingency of a battle, and a few days' rations in case of absolute need, composed the train of each army corps, and with one wagon and one ambu-J lance for each regiment made very re spectable "impedimenta," averaging about 800 wagons to a corps.--Capt. Dan lel Oakey in The Century. A Serenade in Dahomey. That night, perhaps, as a soother to my nerves, the king gave us a serenade by t his own prnvate band. I was awakenedi about midnight by a noise that I can comn-c pare to nothing but a thunderstorm in scales. They ran from high to low, and< got terribly mixed in the middle. It was not really unpleasant, but, like the chim ing of bells, should be heard at a distance -the greater the distance the better. I sprang to the window to find that this band consisted of twenty-two men, eacht with a log or piece of wood, the largest so heavy that it took four men to carry!< it. These were set, one end on the ground.i the other supported by a wooden trestle, and beaten on the high end with wooden hammers, of all sizes, fromt the hand hammer toe a sledge, each stick of log1 emitting its sound, but no distinguishable. air resulting.-North American Review. The Delights of Collecting. What boy is there that can look un moved upon a bird's nest, nor seek to add the eggs it may contain to that cherished depository he proudlly gloats over and de nominates "-my collection?" What young girl is there who never felt the impulse move her to acquire stores of dried fern fronds, wild flowers, seaweeds or shells? There is a delight in the mere fact of col leing that many will carry on far intov the riper years. though then they will I ch.t themselves with the belief that they are studying, or doing something that has wise or profitable ainm.-Time.

The man led the way through a pas age from the stable to the other side of he building. The passage opened into large square room lighted by spacious t pen doors on both sides. The wood floor .as stained a dull red. This is the laughter room, where the horses are :iled and cut up for the animals at the rsenal at Central park. On a couple of Louks on one side of the room hung por ions of a careass like the quarters of a eef. At a _lance one who was not an xpert in raw meat would have said this ras beef. but the horse butcher pointed ut that the meat was of a deeper color nd a eloser grain than beef. Horse s seat is. he said. as he could state from s ersonal knowledge. equally as good as f eef when young and tender. There was t lx culiar flavor to horse meat, lie added, hat some peopie liked better than beef, nd the lions and tigers were fond of it, ut for hi:nself he p,refe"rred a goxl piece f porterhouse steak every time. In one corner of the room was a re- v rigerator. where the meat is kept until t is required. The skin of the last horse s rho had been killed a few (lays before a v on the other side of the room. He n ras a baker's horse. the butcher ex- I dained. and his hair had been yellow. verything was as neat and cleanly and ree from taint as a butcher's shop could e. The chopping block was washed and s tidv as a kitchen table. The cleaver, he saw and the small knives, shining right and sharp, hung in their places be ide the butcher's apron. About two ears ago the park authorities adopted be plan of supplying the carnivorous nimials in the menagerie with horse acat instead of beef. The measure was ,urelv an economic one. Director Conklin ound difficulty at tim ^ in~ btaiing ,,6&t teef or mutton, and the prices an.,ed from twelve to eighteen cents. n Europe the animals in the zoological ollections are fed horse's flesh, and he dvised the commissioners to make the rial here. President Borden became in erested and the brick building was fitted Lp as a stable and butcher shop. with a esult that has justified the outlay. From 10 to $15 are paid for horses. the butcher a hired by the park board and the actual ost of the meat is now about three or bree and one-half cents a pound. About two horses on an average are illed each week. They are rarely old torses. as might be supposed. but usually hose which have given out from some ause. Before they are accepted a veter nary surgeo: makes a careful exainina ion of the animal to ascertain if it is free ron disease. There is no difficulty in ecuring all that are needed by the city, aid usually two or three are kept in the talls, some of them to be fattened before hey are killed. From the ceiling near he center of the room a rope hung down ro:i a heavy staple. The horses are led rough the passage from the stable into he slaughter room when they are to be iiled. "How do you kill them?" was asked. The horse butcher picked up a short indled.heavy hammer and said: "Horses lie easy. When I bring them out here I ies a cloth round their heads, so that it linds them, and they are so quiet you an do anything with them. Then I asten this rope from the ceiling around he brute's neck, and one heavy blow roni the hammer is gener'ly enough. If rou would like to come arouiid to-morrow norning I'll show you how I do it. It is >ootcerin' day to-morrow and old Dob >in will have to go; that's the gray one you saw in there." The reporter declined the invitation. "Makes you kinder sick, I guess," dded the hutelier. --Well, I didn't like it myself when I egan. though I was used to butcherin' .attle, but horses 'peared so different. Eou get used to it, though. The worst s when some horse that's done good ser rice gives out, and the people who bring nim here feel so bad to give him up. But hey say they would rather have the or'se killed than sell him, where he may >e starved or beaten. Sometimes a oan comes up crying and makes me dve back the horse. Once I had a little ray miare that the surgeon operated on nd she got well. You never saw any >ody so tickled in your life as the lady nd~the children were when I told them. and they took her back again. Most of he aninmals are pretty badly knocked out hen they come here. Them stone avements is killin' on horses. It gives hem the 'quitters,' a swellin' around he ankles. and they ain't good for much Lfter that. Now, there's an animal in hat wagon out there, in which I'm going o take the meat over for the lions' din ier. You never saw such a shadder as hat big horse was when he was fetched i here last sp)ring with a bad hoof. lHe ooked sick and I kept him a month, cause I thought he wouldn't be good to eed the animals, though the doctor said n was sound. Then his hoof began to neal and he picked up. Now you can est see that he limps a little; lhe's as irong as an elephant and as healthy." The horse meat was piled into the ragon and the rescued horse proved his rood character by the gait which he took n draving the vehicle through the park the arsenal. The keepers divided up he joiints of the "baker's yellow horse" toong the hyenas, the lions and the ;ige:s, who crushed the bones and pol shed them with gusto. To the eagles hunks of flesh weighing a pound or nore were throwvn and were quickly hragged away by them in their talons. "The bones," said the horse butcher, ointing to several barrels, "are saved md go to the bone man. They are pretty ivell cleaned when lie gets 'em. Last nonth I had a horse that had been a rotter, but I couldn't git any flesh on his ones. lie was a tough one and no dis :ount. I dulled niy knives cuttin' him ap. Them lions chewed on him till the . jaws was tired and hung down. Mr. Conklin says to me: 'What kind of meca" de you givin' the animnals?' I says: 'It's the trotter:' then lie didn't say no more." -New York Tribune. Austria's Crown Princess.
