The Maharaja of Rewah--who died in 1881--was one of the greatest sportsmen ir India; he had slain hundreds of tigers, some of them at very close quarters. He was a mighty hunter, and a ve fine specimen of a Rajput chief, and the terror of all his people. But he wax held in complete subjection by his wives, of whom, alas! there were no fewer than eight. On a certain occasion, when paying a ceremonial visit to the British officer of the district, his highness came with a large retinue of armed retainers and many elephants, and occupied an enormous tent in the centre of an encampment, covering many agres of land, where all his wives with their respéctive servants and guards were likewise accommodated in tents, The next morning it was seen that a very small insignificant tent had 'been pitrhed, during the night, about half a mile' from the princely e amp- nent, and to this humble refuge the reat ef had betaken himself. He 3 ed that he had fled from the turned from St. John' on Thursday Miss Agnes Richardson, has been visiting the Misses Goldsmith in Toronto, came home on Tuesday.

He replied, unhesitatingly, "The police." "You will see," he said, "ome man step out intq, the middle of the street and hold up his hand to stop the traffic of carriages 'in order that a little child, in a perambulator push- ed by a nursemaid, may cross the road in safety; and though the motor-cars and carriages contain lords and dukes--and, perhaps, even former viceroys of India--the driv- ers obey the signal of the policeman, and no one dares to drive past til he gives permission by lowering" his hand, It is wonderful this power of the police, but I think I have found the reason. . Every policeman in Loudon is the son of a lord." Has any Englishman acquired such a profpemd. knowledge of the Indian verflaculars ag to be able to follaw the} precise meaning of the socgs sung by the women of the corps de ballet at a native court? One of our mest eminent traveling M.P.'s was present, not very long ago, at an entertainment.given by an Indian prince in the deserts of Raj puiana, ani was much struck by the vehemence--in voice and postures-- of one of the angists who was filling the room with her melodious voice. He turned to the Indian gentleman sitting next tg Lim, and asked what was the burden of 'the song. "Sir," was the reply, "you must know that she sings of love.

Prizefighters' Nicknames, There was-a time when nearly very prominent English prize fighter 1ad a nickname more generally used admirers than his real name, and some of these were picturesque. Wil- iam Perry, a famous fghter of early ictorian days, was the "Tipton slasher." William Thompson, who you the championship in 1835, was Known Bendigo. The Australian nining town was named after him, and although some of the inha®itants nanaged to have it rechristened Bandhuyrst. the new name never aught on: 'Other nicknames borne hy heroes of the ring were "the Gas- man," "the Sailor Boy," 'the Chel sea Snob," "the Bold Smuggler," "the Great Gun of Windsor" and the Pride of Westminster." Embryo Birds. Mrs. Bourchier (Miss Violet Van hrugh), the celebrated English ac tress, tells a story of two actors who w discussing their professional careers. One of them mentioned that since he last saw the other he had left the stage. "But why did you. leave the stage?' his friend asked, in surprise "Well," the 'other replied,, "I had. a hint that 1 was not suited for it." "I see" was the {riend's comment. "The little birds told you, eh?" "Well, no; not exactly," was the reply. "But they might have become birds if they had been allowed tg hatch!" 4 re Fishes Ring For Dinner, i The goldfish. which thrive in the | warm minemal water of the famous Roman baths at Bath have learned t8 ring a bell for their. dinner. A metal ball floats in the water with an ingenious pivot attaghwment, from which strings hang down in the water, When the goldfish, emulating Bunty, pull the strings, a bell sounds and a cup of ants' eggs is turned automatically; into the water. The fish greedily enjoy the new game, which is watched daily by interested crowds. Knew About His Own.

A tiresome heckler ask. ed him what he thought qf Sir Wil- frid Lawson's Wine and Spirits Bill. "What do 1 think of Sir Wilfrid Lawson's Wine anu Spirits Bill?' cried indignant Sir John.
