character the Rev. Jones alluded before
large audience In the severest and
most pointed terms. The Mayor was
absent from the city at the time.

Two Pilot Stories.

Commodore Davidson's greatest enjoy
ment was story telling. One of his pet
stories was about a pilot who had been dis
charged from an opposition line because he
mad run his boat upon a snag and sunk
her. When the fellow came to the COM
modore for employment he seemed to be
rather proud that he had struck the snag.
81 don't want pilots who run upon
snags,'' said the commodore.
"Of course you don't. l wouldn't if
were in your place." said the applicant.
"That's why L think you ought to hire me-"
"But do you strike snags"
81 used to, commodore, but | don't now.
I've been running on snags in this river off
and on now for fifteen years, and I've hit
every one of 'em, every blamed one of 'em,
commodore. But l never hit the same one
twice, so Pm the safest man you can get
now"
The commodore used also to tell COM
panon to this one. 1t was about another
man who came to him to get place az
pilot.
do you know the river?" the commo
dore asked.
Eyes, sir"
''Know where the snags are, do your"
''No, sir; don't"
"Then how in the world do you expect

''Well, commodore, know where the

A NARROW ESCAPE.
The LiOness Belle, i'm Barnum's
Menagerie,
Seizes Keeper Foster by the Leg-COnkling,
the Lion Tanner, Makes Her Reiinquish
Her Hold with an Iron Bar.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch.
NEW YORK, April 7.-Joseph Foster, one Of
the keepers in Barnum's menagerie, had a
narrow escape from death yesterday morning.
1t has BEEN the custom of the lionitamer to
take three cubs belonging to Belle, the fierce
African lioness, from her cage every morning
to give them an hours romp. The cage is di-
vided into three compartments with heavy iron
liars across the front and sides. One OF the
end compartments was occupied up to the time
of the accident by pair of hyenas. There is
an iron barred door connecting the other two
which are devoted to the Iones5 and her young
Wheneverit is necessary to handle the cubs the
mother is driven into compartment by herself
and the connecting door is closed. That is
what was done by Keeper Foster preparatory
to taking the cubs. The minute he laid his
hands on one of the little fellows the mother
let forth a terrific roar, and Sprang at the
barred door with all her strength Foster
waited few moments till her anger had some
what spent itself and then he picked one of the
babies up in his arms and backed out toward
the door. In climbing TO the floor Foster used
one of the wheels TO the cage for ladder. In
feeling for the wheel ne passed his leg within
about foot OF the bars. Quick as flash the
lioness grabbed for it. She sunk her claws into
Fosters flesh Just above the left knee and
dragged the leg between the bars. Foster was
forced to let go his hold of the cage and was
suspended head downward. The little cub
tumbled in q heap on the floor. Conkling, the
trainer, grabbed up heavy iron bar with a
forled point and shouted to the beast TO lie
down, at the same time jabbing the long sharp
prongs of the fork into her nose. The honess
uttered q sharp cry of pain and relinquished her
hold. Foster fell fainting to the floor. The
only danger he has TO fear is blood poisoning
from the claws. This is not the first time Belle
has torn or bitten two or three and last year she
nearly took poor fellow arm OF. She's only
four years old and spent the first two years OF
her life in the wilds of South Africa.

GOULD INTERVIEWED
On the Consolidation of South
western Roads.
Some Plan for Blanket Mortgage on the
Union Pacific May be Proposed at IKE
Stockholders Annual Meeting.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch
New YORK, April IA Times special from st.
Louis says: Jay Gould, accompanied by Mr..
and Mrs George ]. Could Howard Could his
third son, and Dr. Mum, his physician, arrived
Sunday morning. Mr. Gould talked at consid-
cradle length about local railroad matters, and
then this question was asked: 'sMessrs. Hunt
ington and Croker have been interviewed
lately on a scheme for the joint ownership of
southwestern properties and are reported as
favoring the plan
Nothing has been determined in that matter
yet OF course it could only be accomplished by
a number Of wealthy individuals who have
stock in various companies joining their inter-
eStS for mutual protection. We could not con-
troll the corporations themselves. There are
some curious things about the control of great
corporations. don't own the control in any
corporation whatever; make ii rule never to
hold controlling interest The stockholders
in any one of the corporations in which am in
terested can turn me out if they feel like it.
There are 1000 stockholders in the Missouri Pa
cific, 1900 in the Western Union, and $500 in
the Manhattan and if majority of stockhold-
ers don I like my management they can put me
out, andI wouldn't cry much about it, either
Mr.. Gould was asked the latest news concern
ing the Union Pacific and he replied: L think
that when the stockholders meet towards the
last OF this month we will have something to
offer. A bond covering the entire property and
at a. low rate OF interest would be almost advan-
tageous thing. The Union Pacific has 5000
miles OF track. Only 400 miles of this are
covered by the government lien, which amounts
in round numbers, less the sinking fund, to
S5OGc0, 600. Now as a matter of fact it would
not be such a terrible thing to the company il
| the government did take the /, 400 miles and we
had to reconstruct the gap in order to round
our system. But 1 think that we will offer a
blanket mortgage which will take care of the
government hen as well as of the other secur-
/ tiles -
