est in the human frame, have had pieces
bitten clean out. AT. the inquest on
Thursday Mrs. Maccarte said she had
not seen her husband since two o'clock
on Wednesday. he was not under the
influence of liquor when he left her. He
was always afraid of the lion which first
attacked him, and he had expressed a
fear of it on Monday. His salary, with
perquisites, was about "a per week. The
Rev. Enoch Franks said he saw the de-
ceased go into the den. His opinion
was that the deceased had taken sufficient
drink to make him fool-hardy, but he
did not think any one could call him
drunk. The coroner said there was not in
his opinion anything in the evidence re-
specting the drunkenness Of the man that
affected the case. Itappeared that when
he was down he defended himself in a
manner that showed he realized his posi-
ton. The performance being an extra
one, the heated irons were not ready, and
here he did not think there was any
blame to be attached to anybody. In
the course of his employment Maccarte
met his death, and, however they might
reprobate his calling, they must think
also that it was an institution of the
town, and which, as the law stood, could
not be stopped. Until tho people Of
Bolton became more civilized and dis
countenanced these sights, so long would
managers fill their places of amusement
by such spectacles The jury returned
verdict of death by misadventure, and
added: 1.-THE jury feel it to be their
bounden duty to express their entire dis
appreciation of the reckless custom Of
sO-called lion-tamers performing in dens
where ferocious animals are Gagged"

The Nilsson Company Behind the
Scenes.

Some writer, who seems to know all
about it, says that because Nilsson hap
pened one evening to give to Capoul a
flower that dropped from her bouquet
between the third and fourth acts of
Mignon," some Of the ladies of the
chorus came to the instant conclusion
that the prima donna had discarded her
former accepted lover and given her
heart TO the handsome tenor. Trihing
: as was the circumstance, it nearly led to
serious consequences, for Marie Leon
Duval, the beautiful Felina of the opera
!. Just named and the reputed betrothed
, IF Capoul, witnessed the bestowal of the
/! fragrant trihe, and the ineffable grace
and warmth with which it was ac-
cepted. She Immediately registered
her unqualified disapprobation of
the whole affair by turning her back
upon the parties, and singing subse-
ouently the few bars of the Polonaise,
which are heard in tho last act, not only
prestissimo, but as sharp as vinegar.
Nilsson smiled at the sudden discomft-
ure of her fair sister in song, and the
tenor took a slip of win ordinaire, gem
erously provided by the management,
and subsided into aquiet corner to brood
over the 6ckleness Of the sex until the
@ urtain rose again II was days before
lie two lovers we're themselves once
m ore, when it became noticeable that,
WI .en opportunity served, and Mile Nils
sol was in good humor, she sometimes
arc hiy shook flower at Miss Duval.
B ut if Nilsson is gracious and affable
with the leading members of the troupe,
the fair portion of the chorus have no
socia existence whatever in her imagi-
natio n. The enly words Of recognition
ever lttered by her occurred during the
mark, It scene in Faust; " when point
ing tt one of the stalls, she once re-
make d: There you can have some
nice fn ,sh fish for breakfast" With Miss
Cary or Mile Duyal, however, it is quite
different. Both are always pleasant and
consider ate to those filling subordinate
parts, al consequently most popular
with them. OF course the English speak
ing element lays firm hold of Miss Cary
and taxes her to some extent; but it
also com prehends the few pleasant words
of the >Iernacular understood by the
sparkling Frenchwoman, who never
ceases TO ring a thousand sweet, ridicu-
lous chan ges upon them.

From the New York Commercially
Snapp--Snapp-who' Snapp2 Well,
Snapp represents somewhere or other in
Congress. His popularity is that he
never speaks. Snapp is the Delsarte of
the house. He has a most expressive
nose, and he occasionally heightens its
effect by pressing the end Of his left
thumb to the tip Of it, and wriggling his
digits to the great delight and edifca-
ton of the whole house Yesterday,
while the Presidents civil service re-
forms were under consideration, some
body appealed to Snapp for his opinion.
Snapp responded by rising in his Teat,
adjusting his nose at an angle of forty
five, applying his thumb as aforesaid,
and then working his fingers as if per
forming a staccato movement upon an
invisible flute. The effect was prodi-
gious, especially upon Snaps nose, for
it seemed to grow suddenly larger and
more fercely red, wherenpon Snapp
sank into his seat and coaxed the agi-
tated organ into its normal condition
again. Mr.. Dawes attempted to explain
the phenomenon by observing that
Snapp must have had rush of brains
to his nose, but Cox saw" Dawes and
went him one better, by suggesting that
in that case, Snapp ought to be put
under the care Of somebody, as he was
liable at any time to blow his brains
out. Snap is evidently on the high road
to fame, and that he deserves 1t no
body can deny.

THE SUICIDE MANIA.

Those who Ought to Commit Self.
Murder but Don't.
From the New York Evening Post.l
| The suicidal mania has another and
what may be called negative phase.
Suicide is terrible and distressing
thing; but did it ever occur to the. read
er, mind how distressing is the fact that
many men who should commit the act
which a French law makes penal crime
--dccline to do so? Tits easy to men
ton dozens of individuals who could
largely benefit the world by taking them
selves out Of it. The street corner ruff
fan, who swears and spits and smokes
and insults passing ladies'; the prowling
burglar who, in the dead of night, muir
ders our sleep, If not ourselves, and
makes of with orr portable property;
the drunken friend who, against all ad-
vice, persists in his debauchery and
makes himself a nuisance to everybody
who knows him; the amateur poet who i'm
cessantly conveys his manuscripts to wea-
ried editors; the dinner table funny man,
whose budget of stale jokes is ruthlessly
opened at every meal the shiftless poor
relation who cannot get on by himself,
and is always more or less-generally
more-dependent on his hard-working
connections; the wretched specimen Of
humanity who goes around borrowing
small sums of money which he neglects
to repay; the professional speech-maker,
who has dreary hobby on which, he di-
lates either in Legislative halls, at politi-
cal meetings or in private circles; the
shrewish wife who suggested to the an
cient writer the brilliant idea that lit
is better to dwell in the corner Of
housetop than with brawling woman
in a wide house," the drinking husband,
who would rather fill his own mouth
with whisky than his children's mouths
with bread the pert, imprudent, cigar
smoking boy of the period, who
knows everything he ought not to,
and nothing that he ought; the pra-
ting, professional politician, the un-
scrupulous speculator, the man who
filings vitriol On ladies' dresses, and the
men who leave their families to run away
with other mems wives-all these would
be we'll qualified candidates for suicidal
notoriety. But they, alasl are the very
ones who preserve their sanity to de-
gree which is quite discouraging. For
them the dagger, the bowl and the pistol
have no attractions. They persist IN pre-
ferring life with its exhaustless capacity
for bethering and distressing their con-
temporaries, 10 the quiet repose OF the
suicides tomb. We appeal to them as
men and brethren TO institute reform in
the matter. Let them bid us a'permanent
farewell We will part with them with
resignation, for In taking their leave we
can assure them, with Hamlet, that they
can take nothing we would more willing
" part with. ~ ~ tLAAt p

Oh wonderful stream is the river Of Time,

With faultess rythm and a musical rhyme.

Where the softest II airs are playing;
There's cloudless sky and a tropical cline,
And a song as sweet as yesper chine.l
And the Junes with the roses are staying.
And the name Of the Isle is the Long Ago.
And we bury our treasure there;
There are brows Of beauty Snd bosoms OF
snow,
There are trinksts and tresses of hair;
There are fragments of songs that nobody
And a part of an infants prayer;
There's q lutte unswept, and a harp without
There are broken VOWS and pieces of rings.
y And the garments she used % wear.
There are hands that waved when the fairy

By the mirage is lifted in air;
And we sometimes hear through the turbulent
roar,
Sweet voices we heard in the days gone before,
When tho wind down the river is fair. !.
Oh remembered for aye be. the blessed Isle.

When the evening comes with its beautiful

And our eyes are closing to slumber a while.

From the St. Louis Times. January "a.
The Hon. Frederick Douglass, OF Ro-
chester, New York, arrived in the city
yesterday. He went directly to the
Planters, and wrote his name with much
grace and beauty on the register. he
then went out. Atexaetly halfpast two
O o'clock he returned, and, sristocratically
casting his hat down, started to get his
dinner. Mr.. Cunningham, the clerk,
afFectionately touched the colored gen
tlemRn upon the shoulder. Mr.. Douglass
looked around. Mr.. Cunningham asked
him if he was registered. Mr.. Douglass
thought he was. Mr.. Cunningham knew
he was not, and produced the register to
show that the great statesmans s name
had been erased. Mr.. Douglass desired
70 know If he couldn't stop there. Mr..
Cunningham thought he couldn't, Mr..
Douglass wanted to know why this was
thus. Mr.. Cunningham told him the
house chose to exercise some discrlmi-
nation as to whom they received as
guests. Mr.. Douglass INDUCED in brief
but very spirited lecture on equal rights,
and then departed to hunt up the civil
rights bill.

THE FRIGHTFUL WORK

went on again for few sickening and
horrifying moments. Hot irons were
now available, and the brutes being
driven off, the poor and almost pulseless
piece Of humanity was drawn out o!
the place it was fated he never more
should enter. He sustained sufficient
sensibility to speak TO his warm-hearted
colleagues a few faint words praying
them not to take him away to receive
medical aid, as he knew that be was a
dead man. His anxious friends carried
him tenderly TO the infrmary, where, af-
ter few moments, he breathed his last,
after muttering few incoherent SEN
tenees. As the shattered frame was
borne past Mrs. Manders, he family
waved his hand and gave her an express
sive look, which conveyed the words
that be was past all hope of aid. Many
of the shots fred entered the bodies OF
the animals, and they received great in
juries before they were driven of their
prey. The lion Tyrant is three and q
half years old, and had been brought up
from q whelp BY Mrs. Manders. The
animal having been a favorite, Il
was during the early part Of its
training allowed to run about that
portion of the caravan used as a
habitation, and it freely gambolled
with its mistress. The sire Of this
animal was the one that nearly killed
Maccomo some time ago. The only arm
the deceased had was streaked with deep
rashes from the shoulder TO the hand;
the scalp was torn right back, and from
the hips to the knees, where he was
seized from behind, the muscles are
completely t0rn out There are pieces

From the Bolton England Evening News.l
A series of farewell performances were
being given prior to the menagerie pro-
ceeding to Bury, and an extra perform
ance was announced and took place at
1920 o'clock. Attached to the show
was a man named Thomas Maccarte,
whose professional appellation was
"Massarti, the lion-tamer," and he at
this extra performance entered the.ions S
den for the last time. Maccarte was q
young man, not more than thirty four
years old, but he had been associated
with travelling exhibitions of this kind
from a very early period, He had pre-
viously lost an arm when performing
with Messrs. Bell & Myers circus at
Liverpool. He had previously been
trained by Messrs. Batty as alion.tarner,
and having joined them for short time,
he was engaged by the late Mr.. Man
ders to succeed Maccomo He was
very bold and adventurous man, and
had been repeatedly cautioned respect
ing his rashness. The unfortunate man
commenced his performance on Wednes-
day evening. when he was hardly in a.
proper condition to do so, and having.
exhibited the gorilla and the serpent 8
he entered the lions den. At this tim e
iti is calculated FIVE or six hundred pei :
sons were present, and the FIVE lions n
the den were put through their perform /
ances with the usual success and a D.
plause. On all general occasions heat, ID
bars of iron and iron scrapers are in
readiness, but on this fatal evening the
matter had been neglected.
THE FIVE LIONS
were all powerful animals, and the un-
fortunate man, on entering the cage, no
ticed that black named African lion,
which had only so recently As Monday
bitten his hand. appeared very restive
He consequently fixed his eyes on it,
and this, in some degree, diverted his at |
tention from an Asiatic lion known BY
the name Of Tyrant, against whom he |
had been cautioned only that morning
to keep carefully to his Instructions. 1t
is necessary here to note that when per-
forming lions are tanned there is line
drawn, or what is known as the Office
in technical phraseology, by which the
beasts are taught to regard that line as
o Limit beyond which the performer m Ist
not pass, knowing, if he does so, the
consequences to be expected are naosr
dangerous. The presumption is that
this line was overstepped, and Maccarte,
who was attired as Roman gladiator
was returning his falchion to the sheath
slipping, he fell on the floor of the den
Tyrant fastened on him, seizing him by
the launches, and then the African lion
fastened on to his armless shoulder.
Maccarte Immediately called upon the
keepers for help, and meanwhile to.
fire. He then drew the short Roman
blade which formed part of his cos
tune, and commenced fighting desper-
ately with the lion Tyrant thrusting the
sword into its face mouth and eyes.
