The Attitude of Our Government.

Washington Special
In regard to all forms of the assassination
movement in this country, in connection
with the Irish question, it may be assumed
with certainty that our government is both
ready and anxious to express its detestation
and official condemnation of every feature of
the matter which can be made a subject of
legal action There is no element of the dyn-
amite conspiracy which will be allowed to
shield itself behind the absurd plea that it
forms part of political movement, and that
the United States pretends to afford refuge
for all who are only charged with political
crimes 1t is believed that our authorities
will arrest, on their own motion and with
out suggestion from Great Britain, any spe-
cific case, any persons who may be discov-
cred in preparing internal machines for use
abroad. 1t is said that the President regards
it as matter of good comfy, as we'll as
matter intimately concerning the national
welfare that prompt steps be taken to show
that party of assassination is outlawed in
this country, and that its members place
themselves outside of all claims to any atten-
ton, except such as will most speedily Sc
cure their punishment. In case of requests
from Great Britain for the extradition of any
persons charged with being accessory to acts
OF assassination, it is certain that our author
tiles will not only not lay obstacles in the
tate all measures for securing such assassins
only taking care that such evidence of guilt
as is called for by our treaties is submitted in
every case. The administration has full
faith in the cordial support of all law-abiding
citizens in every step it may take looking to
the prompt suppression of every element of
the assassination movement.

Work for the Grand Jury.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, May Judge Van Wag-
ener, of the Criminal Court, in charging the
grand jury to-day, drew their attention to
the fact that reports had been recently pub
llshed charging bribery and corruption in
the municipal body, and stated that it was
within their province to investigate them.
He also said that if the law against dueling
had been violated it was their duty to in
dict the offenders, and added: The day has
gone by when this sem-barbarous custom
can be either tolerated or vitalized into re-
spectability, and the offender deserves no
more mercy than any other criminal" This
part of the charge grew out of the fact that a
well-known attorney of this city recently
sent challenge to an equally well-known
limb of the law

Intelligence ia Animals.
Nature

Mr.. RomaneS remarks in his book
that there are few recorded instances
of intelligence in bears; the follow
ing facts, may therefore be worth re-
cording: In the Clifton Geological
Gardens there are two female polar
bears, between y and 3 years old,
which came here quite young. One
of these shows remarkable intelli'
gence in cracking cocoa-nuts. a
nut was thrown TO day in the tank
il sank long way, and the bear
waited quietly till after some time 1t
rose little ont of her reach. She
then made a current in the water
with her paw, and thus brought 1t
within reach. This habit has al
ready been several times noticed in
polar bears She then took it on
shore and tried to break it by lean
ing her weight on it with one paw.
Failing in this, she took the nut be-
tween her fore paws, raised herself
on her hind legs to her full height,
and threw the nut forward against
the bars of the den, three or four feet
off. She then again leaned her
weight on it,hoping she had cracked
it, but failed again She then re-
peated the process, this time sue
cessfully. The keeper told me she
employed the same method to break
the leg bone of horse. That this
is the result of individual expert
ence, aud not OF instinct, is clear
from the tact that her companion
has not learned the trick of opening
them thus, nor could this one do it
when she first came. The method
of throwing it is precisely similar to
that adopted by the Cebus monkey
described by Mr.. Romanes.
