New the stsg Changes His Antlsrs.
With the loss Of the antlers the stag
changes his disposition entirely and be-
comes as docile and tractable as q
lamb. He shows an inclination to court
public petting rather than avoid it. He
remains In this condition of temper I'M
til the beginning of March, when he
shows a disposition to Turk in seques-
tered spots of the glen and timidly
avoid the presence of all, even of his
kind. e
During this period, on the spot where
the late antlers were, pair of pro-
tuberances make their appearance, COW
cred with soft, dark, velvety skin.
These attain a considerable growth in
few days. The carotid arteries OF
these protuberances enlarge with them
in order to supply sufficiency of nour-
ishment.
When the new antlers have attained
their full growth, which is in ten weeks
after the old ones have been shed, the
bony rings at the base through which
the antlers pass begin T, tlcken, and,
gradually filling up, compress the blood
vessels and ultimately obliterate them.
The velvety skin that surrounds the
bone, being thus deprived of nourish-
ment, loses its vitality and is rubbed
off in shreds by the stag on the edges
of rocks or other hard substances.
AS soon as the full size of the antlers
is attained the docile disposition of the
elk disappears, and he becomes once
more for the year the fierce king of the
glen.
The age of the elk, according to writ
ers on natural history, is computed by
the number of points on the antlers.-

fewer ard lower assessments. There may
be some sort of an entertainment this
month for the purpose of drawing mem-
beers to the club to vote and elect officers for
the ensuing year. This will not be diff
cult matter, as there are but two tickets in
the field. The officers on either ticket could
carry on the affairs of the club to the salts
faction of members, who do not evidently
care fig how the concern is managed so
long as they can witness COED ~ fights.

the California Athletic Club has gloves,
the padding Of which is mnOvable-that is
under the eye Of the authorities. 1t says:
The new regulation gloves used in the Cali
fornia CLUB are made very narrow, so that
the padding is all on the knuckles and
fingers, and it is impossible to push it aside,
SO that the gloves are as Ineffective as eight
ounce affairs. And If a fellow tries to push
