BACK INTO HIS GAGE

NEW YORK, Oct 2s s-Notwi' hstanding
| the statement male thAt Wallace, the lion
that escaped from his cage in a stable on
East Eighteenth street had been captured.
the big brute was still roaming and roar
Ing about the place yesterday morning,
and the crowd was bigger than ever. The
owner and keeper remained there all night,
| protesting TO renew their attempts to
drive the beast into his open cage They
proved unsuccessful. Later they ran q
| line Of hose from the water tap TO the
steps leading to the loft, playing upon the
| lion To his evident annoyance, for his roars
were fierce and came at short intervals
The water treatment was soon aban-
doned. Messrs. Cooklin and Mcdonald,
| lion tanners attached to Barnum & Bailey's
| circus, arrived from the winter quarters
at Bridgeport. Conn, yesterday. They
were equipped with ropes. chains and
several queer-iooking devices. with one or
the other Of which they hoped to capture
the lion. The Bridgeport men got TO work
soon after II o'clock. They were Joined
by Buckskin Joe, a Montana hunter and
trapper.
The first thing the lion hunters did was
to begin the removal Of the carcass Of the
Wallace. although It emitted an odor that
was distinct across the street BY ID
O'Clock this was accomplished. The car
cass was hauled upstairs TO the second
door, Bostock. Bocaccio, Conkling and
Mcdonald then attacked the lion from the
end Of the building, where he lay crouchod
over big blood spot left by she dead
horse. They drove him back few feet,
when suddenly the vicious brute turned
aud. leaping by Mcdonald, jumped into q
pen under the stairs.
A Hazardous Undertaking.
The lion was becoming more savage
and It was deemed advisa bls for their own
safety to give him few minutes rest.
Another attack was made The man
eater jumped over the pen straight at
Bocaccio and stood as IL challenging q
combat 10 the middle OF the floor. He
was allowed 20 sit there a moment, and
then with pistol shots, yells and din that
sounded out on the street as II pande-
monium had broken loose the men charged
again, forcing the lion up to the door Of
the cage.
Another moments rest and the fual and
hercest charge was made. Forming q
semi-circle around the lion, they 5abbed
him with iron pronged poles and fired
blank cartridges into his face until
he finally turned and leaped into his cage
The door was closed upon him and
fastened In quicker time than IL takes to
tell II, and the great untamed maneater
was prisoner again. II was just 1880
p. N. 1t has been intimated that the lion
is 30 years Old and toothless, but only that
the notoriety may not lessen its value al

coaxed into accepting the honor of an cleo

spoke. He described the man Africa needed,
one who could adapt himself 10 the country,
the people, the work to be done. Then,
swinging his long arm around The semi-cir-
Gle of bishops seated OF. the platform, he
aaid, 'None of these gentlemen would do"

THE FALLEN TREE.

Walking through forest gentleman saw
q grand old tree which had fallen across the
path. The tree appeared strong and sound |;
there had been no wind or storm. Why had
the tree fallen? He looked at the stock, and
found that the whole heart of the tree was
eaten ont by decay. For scores, perhaps for
hundreds Of years that process Of decay had
gone on, and though the outside seemed fair
and strong yet the inward life of the tree
was gone, and at last without stress or
strain, it fell by its own weight.
down! How many Of the giants in the
great forest Of humanity fall in the same
manner! Outwardly fair. inwardly false;
apparently strong, really weak; with all the
aspect Of growth about on the surface. but
rottenness aud decay within the heart, till at
length In an unexpected hour the mighty
man comes laundering down before the
breath of a zephyr, to the astonishmeut Of
all who had beheld his apparent strength
and massiveness. ~
There Is solemn lesson here. That les
son is the importance Of the inner life. II
that tree had been strong within, men
might have hacked and chopped it till .

still It would have repaired its own dam

the heart and the trunk was rotten; when
all its inner vitality was eaten out, then what
remained but crash?
The men who 20 down before the breath
of temptation, who disappoint our hopes and
make US fear that humanity is rotten to the
core, are men whose hearts for long time
have not been right In the light Of God.
They may have lived correct lives, they
may have put forth fair pretensions and
professions, but there was something wrong
within, and at last the sudden destruction
comes. .Creale in me clean heart, o God;

BELIEVING GODS PROMISES.

"Believe ME-" says God. Yes and He
also says, "Follow me-" That is His contro-
yersy with us-thnt we let so many Of His
notes 90 to protest. to tue scandal of His
name. His promises to pay are in our
hands, and on every one Of them is written,
"All the promises Of God a'e yea, and in
Him. Amen! unto the gltry Of God the
Father But we haven't the faith and per-
severance in prayer to prove them, md 70
they become the bankrupt securities instead
of the living assets Of the church. 1t is true
that faith is greater than demonstration, and
that we believe God without seeing
Him. But We are to believe that He will
do, not that He will not do. We are to
prove His promises and rest in their proof,
and not to be content to rest In them rs un.
proven. For observe tha. experience OF
Gods promises Is necessary id order to our
growth in grace. In the epistle Of the He
brews it is written: For every one that
useth milk is inexperienced IN the word of
life, for he is babe; but strong meat be-
longelh to them that are Of full age" Tbs;
Is to say: IF one is content with the harest
rudiments of Scripture, he will be babe
and a weakling all his life. But if he takes
hold of the strong promises and turns them
into facts and experience, he will be

"Cloth" and "Clothes."

DR.. Murray has been puzzled about
the origin OF ''cloth" and the plural
"clothes" for garments as distinct
from ''cloths." The etymology and
even the primary sense of the old
Teutonic kioth are uncertain. The
former is probably to be sought il the
Teutonic verbal stem xii, klai, to
stick; but whether the name was ap-
piled to cloth as substance felted or
made to stick together, or to cloth
as thing to be attached or made to
cling to the boly is doubtful The
distinction OF 'clothes" from 'clothS"
is chiefly Of the present century. The
common eighteenth-century spelling
was ''cloaths."

RELIGIOUS READING,
A NATURAL CONSEQUENCE.

lately read pathetic article depicting
the last days Of lonely old man living in
his married sons family. No one was posi-
lively unkind to him, yet they all bad their
business, their pleasure. their friends. and
the old man was mentally aud spiritually
alone
. We commiserate the deariness of such an
old aye and do not remind ourselves that it
may be the natural outcome of the sons
dreary childhood. There is a similarity be.
tween the condition Of little children and
that Of old men and women. At both ends
of life there is need OF sympathy, help,
stopping, broodiDg kindness. The child Is
too Young to take hold Of life. the old man
has let 60. This lonely man, whom we
pity in the sketch referred to-, was probably
absorbed In affairs when his son was little
child. Most likely he was too busy to in
quire into his baby needs, to sympathize
with bis baby wishes, to get acquainted with
the little mind and satisfy its bent, to win
the innocent, con6ding heart and make of
himself support for its outputting tendrils.
A lover of children often observes the
kind of training which results in forgetful
sons and daughters. A child leans against
the fathers knee and looks up wistfully,
longingIy. He is pushed aside, while the
father goes on with his work. The mature
mind il absorbed with thoughts Of business,
may be with grudges Or. hurts. The ap-
proach of the little intelligence asking TO be
permitted to mingle itself with the father
mind is felt to be an intrusion, hin
drance. ' .r..s.
This unintentional hardness to children is
shown perhaps as often by mothers as by
fathers. The mother)is intent upon making
the little garment, or cooking the dainty
dish, or she is making the house sprick and
span for company. The little one follows
her about feeling exactly the same sense OF
isolation, Of sadness, that the mother will
perhaps experience by and by when the
same child. woman grown, is unwilling 70
give up time and self for cherishing and
pleasing the aged cbild-woman.
What traveller has not seen in the cars
