HOW ANIMALS BEAR PAIN.
Their TIutR Hcroism In Suffering Puts

Their TIuta Hcroism In Suffering Puts
Mems Endrranco to Shame.
One of the pathetic things connected
with this Kaleidoscope nonsense people
call life is the manner in which the ami
NAL kingdom cndurcs suffering. Take
horses, for instance, in battle, and after
the first shock of wound they make
TO sound. They bear The pain with
mute, wondering endurance, and if ut
night You hear a wild groan from tho
battle field 1t comes from their loncli-
ness, their loss Of that human compan-
ionship which seems absolutely indis-
pensaSlc to the comfort Of doncsticated
animals.
The dog will carry broken leg for
days wistfu!ly but uncomplainingly
The cat stricken with club or stone or
caught In some trap from which It
gaaws its way 70 freedom. crawls to
some secret place and bears in silence
pain which we could not endure. Sheep
ard other cattle meet tho thrust Of the
butchers knife without q sound. and
even common poultry endure intense
agony without q complaint.
The dove. shot unto death. fies to
some fur of bough, and as 1t dies the
silence Is unbroken save by the patter
on the leaves OF its own life blood.
The wounded deer speeds to some thick
brake and In pitiful submission waits
for death. The eagle. struck In mid
mir. fights 70 the last against tho
fatal summons: there Is no moan or
sound Of pain, and the defiant look
never fades from It's eyes until the lids
close over them never to uncover again.
Here is an example of this splendid
endurance right before us, says the
Florida Times-U MON. which proud man
In vain tries to emulate. A mule
haltcred to post awaiting treatment,
one OF its hind feet suppurating
sore. the frog restoring and running
ont. Its whole body droops and its
eyes are strained and agonizing. The
veterinary surgeon standing by says
that the lightest touch on that foot TO
the ground causes the most intense
pain and yet there Is no sound. nothing
but that patient endurance that aston
ishcs and appalls.

FISH THAT CAN FIGHT.

How tho swo-dflsh LOOKS, Acts md APP
pcascs Its Hunger.
In point Of size the ssordash has few
rivals among fish. The average length
of specimens taken on the Atlantic
coast Is eleven or twelve feet. including
the sword, which Is three or four feet
long The maximum length known to
have been attained has been about SIX
teen feet. although specimens SO large
are quite rare and are sel,om seen. The
weight of n fish eleven feet long is be-
tween three and four hundred pounds,
while u sixtccn-foot monster would turn
the scales III seven hundred or eight
hundred pounds.
About the irst of June swordfish
make their appearance in largo, scnt-
tered schools of the southern part of
the New England coast, being attract
ed, like bluctish, horse naclSerel, sharks
and other prcdaccous species, by the
presence Of weaker fish, upon which
they sabsist, notably mcnhadcn, mack
ercl -1d nc--:.'inS. Dur.ag the GUNNER
nont..s ta-T r.--5e cv-. c wide area,
extending from Block island to Nova
Scotia. and, exceptionally, Newfound-
lard, says writer In Frank Lcslie's
Monthly. Toward the end of October
they begin to move off our shores,
and by the advent of cold weather they
have all disappeared. The fishery
terminates some time before the fish
withdraw from the coast. as the low
cred temperature md boistcrous cle-
incnts cause them to seek more con-
genial hauats at greater depths, where
it is impossible to capture them.
AS rule the swordfsh leads lazy,
peaceful life near or ut the surface, and
Is seldom observed except under fair
skies and on calm seas, when 1t may be
seen gliding leisurey through the
water, apparently without the slightest
cxcrtion. with the long caudal and
dorsal fins projecting above the surface
in a way that is sufficiently character
istic to distinguish the fish even at long
distances. In the midst of such state
we may often see q sudden change in
the nature of the movements; restless
activity takes the place of listlcss wan
| dcring; the water is all In co,nmotion
as the fish darts here and there with
apparent rage, jumping half out of the
| water, diving, squirting again to the
surface, and lashing the waves into
foam. After time perhaps we see the
remains Of small fish floating abou. in
the water, and we come to the proper
conclusion that our gladictor has fallen
in with school of lac.;loss herring or
menhaden. and has been using his skill
full weapon in providing the means to
assuage the pangs of hunger, which we
may well imagine are frequent and pro-
nounced in body of such proportions.

Strange Labor system.

In Manipur. whero there recently was
some trouble, there exists q peculiar ma

in India, based on the theory that every
man between the ages of seventeen and
sixty is bound to place his services ut
the disposal ofthe state for certain
number OF days every year. The citi-
zens may give the actual time to such

they aey commute this by money

Deals out Justice 20 Two Negroes in West
virginia-- Hcd Smith Caught and Strung
Up-His Partner Shot to Death.
NAUeArUcK, w. Va, May 14.-Caught,
tried, condemned and executed by
Judge Lynch, is the fitting finale Of tho
tragedy committed on Laurel Creek,
near Mr.. Serpclls railroad camp, by
Red Smith Saturday night last, when
he killed Lester Fields to get possess
sion of his revolver. Deputy Sheriff
Meade started on Smiths trail soon
after the murder was committed, and
caught him fifteen miles below Dun
low, on the n. & w. X. r., together
with Henry Jnmes- The sheriff ar
rived at the camp with his prisoners
Friday morning about o'clock, where
he was quickly surrounded by mob Of
angry blacks, who took the prisoner
Red Smith away from him and escorted
him to the spot where he murdered the
boy Fields, they placed him on an old
gray mule, quickly adjusted the rope to
, a limb near by and around his neck, tied
q red cotton handkerchief over his face.
They asked him what he had to say, and
his last words were: "Fix the rope to
suit yourself" The mule was whipped
up, and Smith was jerked into eternity.
There were 200 or 800 men, all blacks,
except few white spectators, who did
the lynching. There was no noise. Ev-
erything was done quickly and quietly.
Then posting up the following notice,
the mob dispersed: mo one allowed to
take this body down before o'clock p.
IN. BY THE PARTY.
When the sheriff brought the prison.
ers into camp, Negro asked them what
made them kill Fields, and Smith said:
"If have killed anybody don't know
anything about it" james spoke up
and said:
Now, Red. what do you say that for,
when you know you shot Lester in the
neck; then shot him in the head and
threw the body over the road"
Smith made no confession, and was
as Indifferent as though it was some one
else who was going to be hung. James
tells the following story:
When Lester, Red and himself started
from the lower camp for the upper one,
James did not know there was any
trouble between Lester and Red.
After they had got out Of sight and
hearing of camp. Lester was walking
ahead and Smith just behind him.
Smith had double-barreled shotgun.
He put the gun against Lcster's necl.
and fred Lester ran a few yards and
fell. Smith then ran up to him quick
ly, and. putting the gun against his
head, fired the other barrel. Picking
the body up he threw it over the road
bank.
James then started to run, and Smith
pulled the pistol out of Fields holster,
and pointing at James, commanded him
to stop, and compelled him to go with
him, guarding him all the time they
were together. James was afraid to tell,
fearing Smith would KIN him. James
was turned loose.
The next day James boosted that the
Negroes could not lynch him. He
scarcely uttered the words before fifty
bullets riddled his body. None of tho
lynchers have been arrested.
