devil is to pay all hands turn out, and,
by beating tom-toms, with incantations,
shouting, and otherwise making loud
noises, and different contortions of limbs
and bodies, frighten all the devils imagin-
able. Whenever one happens TO meet
with good luck il Is all owing to his indi-
yidual prowess or agility. They have
medicine men, and sometimes women,
among them, who pride themselves a. in
vincibls and inTulnerabls. There are
seven grades of these; the seventh, or
highest, consider themselves beyond the
hurt or injury of man. One of these was
telling me once that the rife and ball had
not yet been made that could do him harm,
and TO confirm his story showed me his
coat where a ball, as he claimed, had
passed in at the front and out at the back,
without even grazing the skin. / told him
If he was so sure that no ball could iniure
him, and he wished to convince me of the
fact, there could be no better proof than

NEW HAVEN CONN. TUESDAY MORNING. JANUARY H. 1882

the exception of the Cape buffalo, is the
South African gnu, which never loses its
ill-temper when tanned, and always re-
mains among the few dangerous animals
which the keepers at the Zoo have to deal
with. Hardly less ill-tempered are the re-
bras and the wild asses, which suggests
that humrn mismanagement ia not entire
ly to blame for the occasional fll-tsmper
and obstinacy of mules and donkeys. To
the ill-tempered species we may add the
camel and the two-horned black rhinoce-
ros. The last is really ferocious, charging
down on any creature, man or beast, with
out provocation, and capable of inficting
mortal wounds even on the lion, the ele-
phant or its own kind.
But among all the larger creatures of the
animal kingdom it Is difficult to find more
than dozen species which are, as a class,
ill-tempsred unless We include all those
carnivorous animals which exhibit oer-
tain ferocity in the capture of their prey.
But it will be found that, apart from this
law of their being, such animals are not,
as rule, either il-tempered or malicious.
On the contrary, their natural bias is to-
wards good-nature, and it may be inferred
that the fierceness exhibited by them when
actually striking their prey is rather a
Grapual development from particular ne
cessity than an essential part OF their ma
ture. The good humor of the lions and
other felidn was wei illustrated by scene
at the Zoo q few wSeks ago. The young
lion from Sokoto was much intent on
breaking in the iron shutter which seps-
rates the house il now occupies from its
former quarters next door. Apart from
the very proper wish to assert a right to
it's former dori.ils, II had che Irritating
stimulus supplied by an ill-tempered ana
decripit old leopard which was growing
on the other side of the shutter, and even
went SO far as to insert one of its longest
teeth into the crack between the shutter
and the wall, as a reminder to the lion of
what was waiting for 1t on the other side.
The lion was striking constant heavy blows
on the door, and was SO intent on Its oc
cupation as to disregard the call of its
keeper. The keeper quietly attracted its
attention by pulling it's tail!-and the lion
at once desisted, rubbed its face against
the keepers hand, and lay down to be
stroked, patted and have its name ca
ressed. A very beautiful puma close by
exhibited all the pleasure of a friendly cat
at being stroked, and the tiger from Turk
sstan allowed itself to be fondled like
big dog

Crimes.

Importance His Career and His
Crimes.
PARIS, March 31.-The government looks
upon the arrest of Ravaschol as one of the
greatest Importance, not only in that it has
thrown into its hands man already con-
dcmned to death for murder, but in that it
is believed that his capture will put an end
to the dynamite ontrages in Paris.
No doubt is entertained that he is most
dangerous criminal and his incarceration
has removed great source of trouble and
uneasiness. The government has rewarded
or intends to reward every one i'll any way
connected with the making of the arrest.
The proprietor of the wine shop where
Ravasehol was captured, and the waiter
who notified the police that Ravaschol was
in the wine shop, have received reward
of 1000 francs. The police commissary
who made the arrest will be decorated
with the ribbon of the Legion of Honor,
and the six gen d'armes who assisted him
will receive medals and be promoted.
The recent raids made upon the lodgings
of Anarchists and the arrest of SO many
has had the effect of somewhat frighteii-
ing them. The police have reason to think
that some of these men have thrown into
the Seine dynamite and internal machines
in their efforts to avoid capture for having
these articles in their possession for un-
lawful purposes. lie untnOrltleS nave

Ravaschol's examination last night occu-
pied five hours, 1t chiefly related to his
past life and he was subjected to u string
OF questions that revealed that he was d
greater villain than even the police sup
posed. He confessed the murder of the
old hermit of Notre Dame de Race. SOME
time ago an old man was killed with an
axe which belonged to the victim. The
murderer stole money and valuables and
escaped. Ravaschol was questioned MS tc
this crime and here his denial was very
weak. He admitted that he was grave
yard ghoul and told Of number of grave.
that he had robbed. When the polio,
searched his lodging yesterday they fount
among other evidence of his crimina

HE WIS TIE BURGLAR.
Young Culprit Gave an April Fool
Alarm That Led to His Detection.

PHILADELPHIA, April William J..
Schulz, ayonng scapegrace of 10 years, who
lives with his father Isaac Schulz, a baker,
at No. 03l Spring Garden street alarmed the
family this morning by shouting that he
had seen two burglars in the house. The
neighbors We're aroused and the police
summoned. Young Schulz pointed out
where the intruders had scrambled over a
roof and entered the room of his sister
Anna. On examination, ii was found that
the latter's iewelry, valued at s., 900, was
missing.
No burglars could be found, and, as the
officers doubted the story inquiry at pawn
shops in that vicinity soon revealed the
fact that Schulz had himself taken the
jewels to the brokers and negotiated loans
on them.
All were recovered and the young man
was locked up. He has been literally edu-
Gated, and has travelled in Europe ~ his
fathers expense, but recently developed a
taste for fast living.
