Far In Advance of the Patrol.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., May IL
According to advices received at
state and treasury departments, 10
sealing vessels left Victoria up 10
date, this coupled with the fact that
the sealers have so much the start
of the patrol feet is causing the ad-
ministration considerable uneasiness
as to the outcome of this years
work. To be effective it is the
opinion of experts that
the feet should have been in
Behring Sea not later than
May Is. 1t is feared now there will
DO nothing to prevent sealers from
entering the forbidden waters and

Sunday.
CHICAGO, May 2s.-Judge Stein
to day issued a temporary injunction
restraining the exposition directors
from closing the Worlds Fair on
Sundays. The decision was
made in accordance with the
prayer of bill fled some weeks ago
by Charles w. Cingman, of Chica-
go, in behalf of himself as a stock
holder in the exposition company
and as a citizen. AS the proceed
ings were had in the state courts,
and were entirely distinct from the
more recent case in the federal
courts, to which the United States
government is party, Judge Stein
held that congress made no law com
pelling Sunday closing.

patrol vessels can overtake them. 1t
will now be the aim Of the govern

supply of steamer sealers as done
last year by Capt. Evans before it
has chance to communicate with
the sealers of Behring Sea. There
is serious doubt on that score, how
ever.

An exchange says that well-dressed
man. leaning against lamp post and
apparently sleeping the sleep of the
just, created great deal of interest in
a busy London street the other day
He sat on box which he had been car
rying.
Evidently being suddenly overcome
with drowsiness. he had placed the box
on the curbstone, and, sitting down
upon it, had fallen asleep. To those
who succeeded in getting close enough
to the man his gentle, restful snore
dispelled the fear that he might be
dead. The side of his face was ex-
posed and betrayed no sign of intoxica-
tion. 1t was the judgment of every
one that he was sober, in good health
and simply taking quiet snooze.
When the crowd became so deep as
to threaten a blockade, the supposed
sleeper suddenly jumped to his feet,
mounted his box and, fiourishing a
couple of bottles over his head, ex-
claimed: 100 s....-.s.,~--

A WONDERFUL elRO.WEAVER.
How the Baltimore Oriole Builds His
COzy Swinging Nest.

How the Baltimore Oriole Builds His
Cozy Swinging Nest.
The Baltimore oriole Is prince in
house of princes, says writer in
Scribner's Magazine. The family to
which he belongs is composed of birds
remarkable either for plumage, note,
nest, eggs or,habit. Each can claim some
thing curious and originals; but the
Baltimore shines in every one of these
particulars, for in plumage, song and
nest alike he is an especially remark
able bird. When the earl of Baltimore
became the lord of Maryland his fol-
lowers quickly noticed the correspond
ence between his heraldic livery of
orange and black and the orange and
black of the splendid bird that so
abounded in the new estates so that,
very naturally, the name baltimore
bird was suggested and has been
borne ever since.
His nest is one of the most wonder>
full examples of bird-weaving in exist
ence. 1t is made of separate threads,
strings, horSehair or strips of bark,
closely interviewer into a sort of sack.
and SO firmly knit together that it will
bear weight of twenty or thirty
pounds. In the southern parts of this
birds range the nest is suspended from
two or three terminal twigs for pro-
lection from numerous enemies, such
as snakes, opossums and the like; it
is also made six or seven inches in
depth to prevent the eggs being thrown
out by the high winds. But in the
colder north, where trce-climbing foes
are rare. it is hung, not at the extrem-
ity of the branches, but in cluster of
twigs that affords shelter. 1t is much
shallower than when exposed to the
wind, but is very thickly woven and
lined with soft, warm materials. The
orioles loud. ffe-like notes ringing
from the high tree-tops in the morning
are an ample refutation of the old
theory that melody and bright plum
age have never been bestowed on the
same bird.

THE HORNED TOAD.
1t Bears a Remarkable Resemblance to
the Ancient Triceratops.

1t Bears Remarkable Resemblance to
the Ancient Triceratops.
There has been considerable discus
sion in the scientific papers of late
about the curious habit of the horned
toads," found in Arizona and Mexico,
of squirting blood from their eyes when
disturbed. Many witnesses agree in
the assertion that the little animals
really possess this power. According
to one observer, the blood. or the liquid
resembling blood, comes from little
oritices just above and behind the
eyes, and it appears to have stupefy-
ing effect upon an animal covered
with it.
The horned toad, says the Youths
Companion, is a strengthening crea-
ture, and in certain ways its appearance
recalls one of the most remarkable
monsters that in past geological ages
lived in the western part of America
the triceratops of Prof. Marsh
This gigantic animal, whose name
means "three-horned face" had it's
skull inclosed in a bony helmet on the
upper part of which, over the nose,
were three stout horns. The head of
one of these monsters is no less than
eight feet long.
When horned toad is laid upon the
head of the triceratops the resemblance
is quite striking, as if this little modern
inhabitant of some of the sandy plains
of the west were. miniature reproduc-
ton, with variations, of the wonderful
beast that roamed there in ancient
times

Intelligence Of the Ane.

a naturalist recently declared that
we are wrong in ascribing unusual IN
telligence toanimals of the ape species
AS 1T is the only animal with hands,
1T does many things by instinct and
habit and necessity that resemble
the ag. of human beings and make it
seem to us as if it is guided by intel
lect. The ape is hardly more intelli-
gent than the dog, if, indeed, he knows
as much. He has gift for imitation
and capacity for mischief, and that is
the most human part of him. But the
animal that really knows the most, or
is capable of being trained SO as to
show the most striking results of edu-
cation, is the domestic pig"

cause many more chiyalrous ones to

For THE LOOKS OF THE THING
1t is not so much on accout of the
dirt as Hthe looks of the thing" that
we suggest the propriety of little
street cleaning. a pile of stones
here, and a pile of miscellaneous
articles there, and a few store boxes
some other place, give the streets a
slovenly appearance Somebody
digs up the street for a lawful pur-
pose, and leaves the surplus earth to
remain an eyesore. Somebody else
digs ditch across the street and
leaves it gaping open a regular
break neck trap for two or three
weeks, until it is convenient to fill
it up. All this goes on under the
eye of the authorities and they are
not disturbed. But the public is,
and the appearance of the streets is
greatly deprecated by these in
fractions of the town ordinances.
