JERSEY CITY, May 6.—Edward W.

The prisoner took his sentence in an indifferent manner. A Tree-Climbing Pig. A curiosity has lately been shot by Mr. Le Mortemore, who has a selec- tion on Tinana Creek, Queensland. He says it is a sort of tree—climbing pig. For a number of years the wild pigs have been numerous in this locality, and his theory is that the original or common pig must have amalgamated to a. certain extent with some aboriginal animal, or that the necessities of climate, etc., have caused the variety. The captured animal weighs about one hundred- welght, and is pretty fat, with bristly brown fur, small black spots, snout and ears like a pig, but the ‘jaw is furnished with front teeth like a. rodent; it has large canines and powerful back grinders. The fore feet are furnished with hook-like claws; the hind ones have two hook claws on each hoof. The tail is thick, about a foot long, and highly prehensile, and in a. state of rest is’ usually carried in what is knotvn as a Flemish coil. The animal is also furnished with a pouch, which it only appears to use for carrying a supply of food in while it is traveling to fresh pastures. The skin is saved and will be sent to the Maryborough Exhi- bition. Mr. Le Mortemore says the flesh is excellent, and that it tastes just like veal and ham pic. He is sure there are plenty more about by the marks on the trees. In drought the animal climbs trees and hangs by its tail while it gathers its food by the hook claws. He intends capturing some live specimens and breeding from them.—Pall Mall Budget. By Devious Ways. Mrs. Billus—Don’t you think this overcoat is a little too new to give away, John?

In vain did I consult a» the doctors in the county, bl without aid. After givingup all hopes of recovery, I happened to see an advertisementin the news- ape: about your CUTICURA Ennms, and purchased them from my druggist, and obtained almostimmediate relief. I began to notice that the seal e ptions e ,1 gradually dropped 0 an disap. , geared one by one, until I had - "3 een fully cured.
