LION TAMER MARLIN.

Recognised by the Beasts After an Alb
senee of Five Years
When the celebrated animal tanner,
who died lately. had retired to private
life, one day he took a notion that he
would visit Ifs former large menagerie,
which he had not seen for five years. 1t
was in Brussels, and he started for that
city from his country seat near Rotter-
dam.
At four o'clock, the time for feeding,
ne entered the menagerie. Being winter
time Martin was wrapped in a cloak.
He mingled with the crowd and waited
until the animals would receive their
food, for which they were waiting with
wild impatience. While they were eat
ing he began to cough Suddenly the
animals paused in their treat and lis
tened, then broke into wild howls of
joy and tore at the iron bars, so that
many of the timid visitors fled from the
menagerio. The parrots, kangaroos,
pelicans and monkeys began to screech
and scream, the hyena and wolves
howled-in short, it was perfect bed
lam.
Then Martin stepped forward. With
q movement of his hand and with his
powerful voice he commanded silence,
and suddenly every thing was quiet.
He swung himself over the bar which
separated the visitors from the animals
and put his hand in the cages to fondle
the animals. A mighty tigress showed
more Joy than any of the others. When
Martins hand glided over her magnifi-
cent fur her limbs trembled nervously;
she uttered weak, tender grunts, and
through the iron bars, with her rough
tongue, she licked the face of her former
master. When he went away she lay
down without eating any more food.
There was a lion named Nero who
had once bitten Martin in the hip and
had been severely punished by him for
it The lion had an unreconcilable
hatred for the animal tanner. Nero
made no other motion at Martins ap-
proach than lift his head and eye him
intently. He remained in his place,
lying still in the back of his cage, when
Martin came near. Martin spoke to him.
He did not answer and viewed Martin
with apparent Indifference. But, whom
Martin was going away, the lion, with
. mighty spring, entirely unexpected,
threw himself against the grating.
pushed his paws through the iron bars.
and with his claws tore off a part OF
Martins cloak. BY quick movement
Martin escaped another injury from this

are always put in and well secured at
nightfall and whenever bad weather is
expected, and to the uninitiated the
order to put in the dead lights carries
more or less of the disagreeable with it.
The story is told of a gentleman com
ing around Hatteras when it was blow
ing half a gale of wind with consider
able sea, who. upon hearing the order
to put in the dead lights. rushed OFF to
his berth in fever of repentance and
began saying his prayers, or at least
what he thought were his prayers, with
such rapidity and in so loud a voice as
to attract his next door neighbor, who,
thinking that something must certainly
be the matter with his friend. whom he
had never before known to go to the
length he had then reached, rushed
into the others room to find out what
it was all about, and was still more as
tonished to find out that it was not his
prayers but the Greek alphabet he was
repeating Fear and hurry TO prepare
for the next world had proved too much
for faithful adherence to what was
taught him in his Sunday school days.

customary TO speak of q drowned per-

which proves n connection between
these widely-separated islands at n re-

that their island was populated by
Parata bringing loaded canoe in his

tt Is most uncanny-looking creature;
It's curious little head, with small eyes
and ears and extraordinary long snout
ending in diminutive mouth; It's great
fore limbs armed with enormous claws,
which Il carries folded In upon Its
palms, and its huge, bushy tail giving 10
an odd appearance OF being all out OF
proportion. This odd appearance, in-
deed, no doubt gave rise TO the extraor-
dinary stories that were told OF II by
the earlier travellers and writers-such,
for example, as that IL was in the habit
Of climbing trees in search OF It's food,
story which aroused the wrath OF the
late Charles Waterton, who attacked
both the story and It's authors with his
usual herceness. The author also strong
" objected TO s.the remark that the
long visage Of this most singular quad
ruped Is out OF proportion and unsight-
ly," stating that he considered 1t to be
quite in unison with tl.h rest OF his body,

do without its tremendous claws al a
cylinder-shaped snout 50 tough as to
enable 1t TO perforate hugo nests of
ants, which in certain districts OF South
America appear more like the roofs of

itations or insignificant little insects?"
The ant-eater's method Of obtaining
Its food Is sa q 70 be as follows: Having
torn open an ant hill with its powerful
claws. Ii draws its enormous long, hexi-
BILE tongue, which Is co vered with glu-
tinous saliva, over the masses of insects
which rush out in defense of their
home. with the result that numbers os
them adhere to Il. and are thus drawn
into the animals mouth, and so quickly
is this operation repeated that we are
assured that the tongue Is put out and
drawn In again covered with insects

some fifteen or twenty years ago. en-

begging him to accept it as keepsake.
The faithful lover had kept it all this

should supply him with permit.
The department communicated with
the lady. She, however. being a mar
