Pitteburg Despatch.

« Wh«n I was in Vienna in 1887," said Eugene Sandow, " one day there appeared in the papers a notice to the effect that there would be, on a certain day three months hence, a grand illumi nation of the Coliseum ab Rome, in honor of some thousandth anniversary. My business instinct, I must say - nor do I mean it in a boastful way—has been fully developed with my muscle. Every addition to my muscular tissue addad more to my head for business. So when I saw this notice in the papers I at once concluded that there ought to be something in that celebration, which was to commemorate the doings of the athletes of old, for a poor athlete of modern times. I Set myself to think ing what there was to make out of the event, and at last settled upon a plan. I went immediately to Rome, where I interviewed officials and unfolded my scheme, with which they at once re fused to have anything to do. I tried to induce the Chief Executive, telling him what a great addition such in entertainment as I would give—and I explained I desired to reproduce some thing like the gladiatorial combats of the ancient days—would be to the celebration. But he absolutely refused, telling me he would have nothing of it. Before this I had been engaged teach ing King Humbert's son physical cul ture, as he was a weak, nervous sort of fellow who needed just such treatment. 1 went to my former pupil and told him of my scheme, and by his aid obtained the consent of his royal father, who gave the order to allow me the use of the historic Coliseum on this special night. This being arranged, I began j to make preparations for the per formance. Desiring something novel, at the same time exciting, I went to Spain for the purpose of learning some thing of bull-fighting. I put myself under the training of several famous toreadors in a small village, and was goon well enough versed in the art, if it, may be so called, to enter the arena. In my first encounter with an enraged i bull I thought I saw an easier way of conquering the beast than by the usual one employed by the Spaniards. When the bull made/a lunge at me, I made a leap over the enraged animal and landed safely. Then, as he came straight for me, his eyes glistening with rage and bellowing terribly, I saw my time for action had come. So, throwing away my dagger and carefully preparing myself, I stood and waited for his coming. Just as he was about to plunge into me I grabbed hitri by the horns and with a little struggle threw him to the ground. The people went wild. They cheered until they were hoarse. "The result of this little experiment was that I received two week* 1 en gagement in which I delighted my audience by throwing a bull by his horns—something novel, and it took well. I went back to Italy, but before going purchased two fine bulls for my performance at the Coliseum. I then arranged the Coliseum for my performance, which I advertised all over Italy. I put up some wooden benches, as I knew there would be a crowd. Well, on the night of the entertainment and illumination you can imagine there was a crowd. I had a throne erected, upon which I had a king in his royal robes and his daughter impersonated. I was led to the arena with my hands shackled. I was then ordered by the Kin? to be released and face the wild beasts, which in this instance happened to be the two bulls I had brought with me from Spain, that were looking out from behind the stage at the other end. Then one of the bulls was released and came to wards me, snorting in a wild ferocious manner. I played with trim-for a. while, then floored him by catching his horns, then two men came forward and tied the beast's legs while I held him to the ground. After he was well bound I lifted him ap, and swinging him over my shoulder, marched him around the arena with, of course, the usual "applause." I finished the second bull in the same way, and then had a tame bull brought in, which I knocked down with one blow of my jßLst. After my achievement I carried out the little play I had arranged by having the king step down and give the hand of his daughter to me in marriage in appreciation of my work. So ended the little play. The enter tainment was so successful that I had to repeat it the next night. I was not allowed to charge admission, so 1 had 40 people hired, who went among the audience with large boxes taking collection. I made 140,000 francs in the two nights' entertainment."

Dr Tweed's Funeral.

The funeral of the He Dr Tweed took place in Ashburton this afternoon. In the morning flags were hoisted half-mast and were flown all day from nearly every flag-staff in the town. The stores in West Street all flew flags, both house and national, and from all <"he hotel flagstaff* the ensign or other natioml flag floated, j The fire police flag was flown from Mr Braddell's office (the secretary), and the Brigade's flag was flown at the Fire | station, The cortege started from de ceased's house at three o'clock, this hour having been chosea to admit of the j doctor's many farmer and stock dealirig friends to get over from Tinwald sale in time, and it was perhaps the largest funeral procession that ever passed along the South road to the cemetery—certainly the lireest funeral ever held on a week day. There were many friends from oatside the county, many more from distant parts of it, whil* nearly every resident who could possibly attend had either a place in the line or attended at some point alone; the route. The chief mourners were Mr O'Connor and Mr J. Martin, from Wellington, brothers-in-law of the deceased, and Dr Bowe, of Timaru, an old College class mate. The latter gentleman had also been summoned when the deceased was taken ill, and lent his aid with the local medical men, but the patient's life was beyond the best efforts of human skill- The pall bearers were chosen from among the more intimate of deceased's personal friends, and comprised Messrs Gny Merewether, H. H. Secretan, R. M. Cathbertson, W. B. Denshire, W. Simp som, and B. Egberts. Wreaths were sen b by the Borough Oourcillors, the Druids, the Fire Brigade, the Drag Company, and many children—about fifty in all. At the cemetery the funeral service was read by the Rev, T. A Hamilton, who had, at the evening service In St Stephen's church on Sunday, made sympathetic reference to the event which has deprived the com munity of a leading citizen.
