In making their demonstration against
the proposed grant Of $4,000 year to
Prince Arthur, the masses of England
have reason, but not law, on their side.
As Mr.. Gladstone explained few days
ago, these allowances for the support Of
the Queen and her family are made in
pursuance Of an implied compact entered
into at the beginning Of her reign, and II
is not within the discretion oil Parliament
to revoke or diminish them. AT the same
time, It Is not 10 be wondered at that
poor men should resist this apparently
useless expenditure. The Queen gets

head was "lassoed" and the ropes were fastened
round the animals neck in such a manner as TO
force the mouth close up to the bars. Ihus Sc
cured the lion was allowed to exhaust nlmsen
by his struggles to shake himself tree, and terri
bly, fierce and violent was the rage he displayed.
The poor brute howled frightfully, and the cage
shook as # it would go to pieces under stress OF
the plunging and tearing.
When the doctor, accompanied by medical
friend, arrived, he mounted on tub in front oil
the cage and Immediately set to work. piece
of wood was placed in the lions mouth, and the
beast at once made snap. Then pltchiork
was held up, and placed in the mouth, kept It
open, while the inside was thoroughly washed
Afterwards the doctor pushed his arm between
the bars into the lions mouth and running his
hand over the teeth, found one of the grinders
loose and concluded that this was the cause Of
the animals trouble. A terrible struggle en-
sued, during which every person present, with
the exception of the doctor himself, showed
great alarm for his safety. The lion plunged
more vigorously, and howled more frlghtully
than ever, tossing his head from side to side,
and at times forcing his hinder as well as his
front paws against the bars But ultimately the
doctor triumphed over all difficulties and dan
gers. By means of powerful forceps. he eX-
tracted the loose tooth, which was found broken
and diseased near the root
When the task had been completed the lion
sank down completely exhausted, and while he
lay steady and quiet the doctor cut the flesh
over the jaw, and found the bone severely in
iured, if not broken. 1t was, however, deemed
| inexpedient to subject the beast to another
operation, and the excision of the injured bone
has accordingly been postponed until it is seen
whether it occasions any serious Inconvenience.
| The latest bulletins announce that the monster
| patient is making satisfactory progress. Mean
while, the doctor has prescribed beef tea and
caret, and under such nourishment, it is to be
hoped the lion will soon recover health and
vigor. Altogether, including the hour during
which the animal was bound before the doctor
set to work, the Operation lasted about an
| hour and half
