with fear, thrust the iron rods through
the cage against the sides of the tiger
The beast, whom the trainer, pinioned as
he was still had partly under control,
looSed his hold and crouched back In his
cage, while the man backed slowly from
the cage. AS the door shut the tiger gave
an angry growl, jumped forward, but the
bars had closed. The lion showed great
excitement and roared furiously.
The trainers life was saved A great
sigh of relief went up from the excited
crowd, women tainted, and men struggled
to get from the tent. The trainer was
conducted to DR. Morrow, who dressed
his wounds. He was very weak and faint
from pain, and the terrible strain of the
ordeal through which he had passed, but
bore the operation without f1inching. His
arm was badly lacerated from the shout
der to the wrist. Three deep cuts we're
made by the tigers claws in the feshy
part of his arm, and seven gashes, made
by the beasts teeth, just below, pene-
trated deep into his arm, large enough to
insert mans thumb. After his wounds
were dressed he went to the hotel. He
passed a very restless night, and left for
his home in Austinburg, 0. His name is
Henry Reed. He has been training lions
and tigers for twelve years and this is his
first accident.

Sorry He Fooled Ris Wife.


Many Torontonians have noticed of late
that prominent business man who was
Absent from his store for two or three
weeks lowing to illness" has since
walked a little lame More than one per
son has asked George what caused his
lameness, but without eleciting the facts.
The cat leaked out OF the bag the other
day, however.
About a month ago the business mans
wife got the idea that she ought to have a
revolver in the house The husband pro
tested in vain. She was dead set on haV-
ing one, and she got it. The following
night, after teasing his wife about hav-
ing something that she would never use
If it were required, he left the house. say
ing he would return in few hours.
Shortly after the door closed behind
him his wife was attracted by the sound
of footsteps up stairs. Her first impulse
was to scream. Her second TO run next
door and ask assistance. Then she
thought of the revolver, and of her hus-
bands laughing taunts that she was
afraid TO handle it. Going TO the drawer
she secured it, as the sound OF the steal.
thy footsteps were close to the top land
ing of the stairs. F'linging open the par
lor door, she peered into the darkness and
in a trembling voice demanded to know
who was there. She fancied she heard a
low laugh ana Jhen saw the aim outline
of man starting TO descend.
Stay back or l will shoot" she said,
as she pointed in the direction of the fig
ure. There was one more STEP a report
and the man fell down stairs with a thun-
dering crash, and lay unconscious almost
at her feet. One look showed him TO be
Der husband. Then there was a piercing
scream and when some neighbors forced
their way in the two were lying senseless
in pool of blood.
The husband has Just recovered, but
will be lame for life, and it is safe to say
that he will never try to brighten his wife
again.

Cy Warman, the Poet-Enginesr,
Makes the Longest Ride in a Cab
on Record.
From the New York Press
A day or two ago, as the exposition
flyer, the train which runs from New
York to Chicago IN nineteen hours, en-
tered the Chicago station man whose
face was as black as an Ethiopian S,
whose legs seemed shaky and whose man
ner was that of one completely exhausted,
jumped down from the engine. He had
reason for being dirty and exhausted, for
he had ridden all the way from New
York to Chicago upon the locomotives
which drew this train. He changed at
Albany. Syracuse, Buffalo and Cleveland,
and babe goodbye to one engineer and
took the hand of greeting of another with
whom he was to continue his ride.
He was an old engineer himself, but no
longer stands upon the footboard, having
yielded up the throttle TO take up the pen.
He was Cy Warman, the Doet-engineer,
who took that long and exciting ride that
he might get inspiration for certain liter
airy work, and that he might study from
experience the engineers who go flying
through the night at mile minute. 1t
was the longest consecutive ride ever
made in a railway cab-nearly 1000 miles
made in little over l 200 minutes.

CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.
Brutal Men Who Take Pride in the
Ferooity of Their Pets.

was the reply. He seems to know every
thing l say to him. tell you he is just
death on cats. He catches them by the
back and shakes the life out of them with
one snap. Amazing bright dog thatl"
A passerby who CHANGED to hear this
conversation was led to wonder Just why
a creature whose only reliable quality
seemed to be the killing of an unfortunate
household pet should be considered such a
remarkable animal, and also to wonder
why the cat appears to be a legitimate
prey of the dog and the small boy. AS a
matter of fact there are few sorts of
brutality more contemplate than the
torturing and worrying of those gentle,
useful and harmless household animals
For all practical purposes the cat Is by
far the more useful Of the two and GER
tainly deserves more consideration than
it receives at the hands of the puplic.
Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
are not even allowed in many cOmmuni-
ties.
There are creatures who call themselves
men who take pleasure in training dogs
to this brutal amusement. 1t makes no
difference whose pussy 1t is or how much
affection some one may entertain for it.
The dog and the man or the boy, one
equally brutal with the other, set after
it., and it is pursued until its useful and
inoffensive life is ended II would be a
good idea if there could be some legsla-
ton looking TO the protection Of the COM
mon house cat, for certainly no member
Of the animal creation stands more ur-
gently in need of it.

ever, were not in good humor and snarled,

The dock at the foot of Whitaker street
presents novel appearance at ebb tide, as
the rejected bananas thrown overheard
from the fruit steamer Gambetta float
down the river. Negroes, boys with nets
made of wire, fish out the bananas that
come within reach. At times there are long
waits between the floating fruits, and the
keen eyes of the fishermen watch the yell
low object as it slowly comes along. Oc-
casionally an alteration takes place as
to equities in cases, and the banana es-
capes while the dispute goes on. There
seems to be a tacit understanding that
the escape of the banana from the first
fisherman gives the next sitter on the
wharf the next throw.

L1TTLEF1ELD ASKS FOR PARDON.
A Belief That the Governor Will Not
Act Favorably on the Application.


Atlanta, Ga Oct. lathe attorneys
for T. H Littlefeld of Jesup, who killed
his wife and her paramour in the hotel
at that place, of which he was the pro-
prietor, argued his application for pardon
before the governor to-day. Littletield's
lawyer made strong plea for him and
his application is backed up by the en-
dorsement of many influential persons,
but on the other side there has been a
decided opposition to his pardon by rela-
tives of those who met death at his hands
They claim that Mrs. Littlefeld, who
was nearly 50 years of age, and of ire
prOachable character up to the time of the
killing, had given no cause for her hus-
bands jealous anger. The governor has
already expressed doubt about the justice
of killing the wife and as it is for her
death that Littlefeld was convicted, the
chances are not favorable to his par
don.
