Signor Boni, a well known Italian archi-
tect. has recently been renovating the cele-
brated metallic winged lion on the pillar in
the Piazza San Marco, Venice. Originally,
Signor Boni says, the lion was gilt, and
traces of gliding were found on one OF the
paws. The eyeballs are OF vitreous ma
terial, white and pellucid, with triangular
facets, but these do not appear to be the
original eyes, which are supposed to have
been of cornelian, chrysoprase or other
op.,lesque quartz. The animal is con
structed of small pieces of bronze about
one-third of an inch thick, secured by
screws to an iron framework. The frame
work and screws having rusted, it became
necessary to remove the lion from the col
umn and to replace the iron framework by
q structure of bronze.

The birds Of feather that flock to
gether" do not belong to the penguin fami-
", as they are entirely destitute OF feathers,
having for covering kind of stiff down.
Another penguin popularity is that 1t swims
not on but under the water, never keeping
more than its head out, and when fishing
| comes to the surface at such brief and rare
intervals that an ordinary observer would
almost certainly mistake it for n fish.
Ducks swim the world over, but geese dc
not. In South America domestic species
| is found that cannot excel an ordinary hen
in aquatic accomplishments. 1t has lived
so long in country where water is only
found in wells that it has lost its aquatic
tastes and abilities entirely.

The 8EaRlNG SEA TRIBUNAL.
The Arbitra,ors are the Center Ct a BfiI.iaA
Partisan Picture.

| PANS, May 23.-The sessions of the In
teruational Bebring Sea Tribunal of Arbi
tration continue center of interest to al
the American colony in Paris, as well as II
the residents in the capital from many Other
nations.
The importance of the contention itself
representing the Urited States and Greai
Britain, the litiga"t governments. am
Sweden, Norway. FraDce and Italy, the
neutral nations, are alone sufficient to at.
tract brilliant audiences, composed of tn;
i1ost prominent members of society in gem
eral and of diplomatic circles in particular
No such test of international arbitration
has been made since the Geneva tribunal
which resulted in the defeat of Great Brit
ain and in the payment of millions of dol
lars as an acknowledgement of her respoH.
sibility for letting loose from her ports the
| Confederate cruiser Alabama to prey upon
American commerce.
Moreover, the international tribunal j.
holding its sessions at the very height of the
social season, and this unusual manifesto
ton of the diplomatic resources of the
United States excites the most loyal and
enthusiastic interest among the American
colony.
Admittance to the sessions of the trbu.
nal is only by card, and these cards are
eagerly sought at the French foreign otfee
aus! OF the legations of the United State,
anil Great Britain.
The audience is largely, as rule, com.
posed of ladies', who follow with interest
AMI seeming comprehension the arguments
of counsel and the inquiries and comments
of members Of the court, the highest inter
national judicial body since the Geneva
| tribunal.
The sittings are held IN the large council
chamber of the hotel of the French minis
try OF foreign affairs. The apartment is
spacious, with Il lofty frescoed ceiling. Al
the cad of the chamber, behind the semi
circular bench where sit the arbitrators y
flood Of light enters through lofty window
of stained class.
The decorations OF the apartment are in
the style of Louis v. Daily reports of the
proceedings of the tribunal and synopses of
the arguments of counsel are teiegraphetl
all over the civilized world. Perhaps it i:
owing TO the lesser distsnc. and to the
reader telegraphic communications that
thus far the !. ndon journals have devoted
far more spac-., both IN their news columns
and editofialIy, u tn B'hring sea tribunal
than have the u"wsp prs of Sew York
The striking fscs- uf the nj Ditrttors, the
high tension OF the intellectual b,ttle be-
tween the opposing rnun--l. the attentive
readiness of tite attaches. the brilliant toilet
and ra,.iant beauty Of the i;,lies of the an.
dience, ase living picture which is
unique.
The most lavish hospitality is being e1-
tended 10 the commissioners. At every
session an elaborate luncheon is served,
and President and Nine. Carnot have re.
peatedly entertained the court and its at
taehes at the Palais Elysee. Balls and din
