and gave it the first one himself He got
a pail Of boiling water and stuck the
horses leg into it. While he was holding
the leg in the pail tender hearted man
happened along. Here" he shouted,
what are you doing?"
I'm doctoring this horses leg, =" replied
Daily, in mild surprise.
Well. well. - said the tender hearted
man. THAT is an internal outrage. The
idea Of treating horse like that "

defenseless horse 20 such torture. That

The girl in the white duck suit was
sitting under tree, with book IN her
lap and her eyes directed toward ham

pancake hat in pink shirt. In due
course this conference ended, and the
couple separated, the girl in the fluffy
gown coming over to the white duck

RIOTING IN RIO.
Da CANA Says PeixOtO Urged the Sol
diers to Make an Attack.

MoNTEvIDEo, September 29.-Admiral
da Cana asserts there has been rioting
in Rio de Janeiro lasting five days, &C
companied by outrages on Portuguese
merchants, instigated directly by Presi-
dent Peixoto, who melted soldiers
dressed in citizens clothes to make
an attack on the ground that they want
ed to break up meeting OF the royallst
conspirators. Rio, it is reported, looks
like a great military camp. Soldiers
patrol the streets, cavalry are encamped
in the public gardens and launches pa
troll the harbor. The number killed IN
the riots is stated to be thirty-two, while
thirty-one were wounded and entered
the hospitals. Most of the fighting &C.
cured near the waters edge, and many
bodies were cast into the harbor: The
damage to the property OF the Portu-
puese and other foreigners Will be 81
500, 900. 1t is said Peixoto will declare
that in order to protect the lives oil Tor
eigners he is forced to declare martial
law. The British Minister has asked Tor
a guard at the legation and his residence.
The British legation is crowded with rel
ugees, who are afraid to go on the streets.
RIOTERS ARRESTED.
RIO DE JANEIRo, September 29.-One
hundred and ninty-tive persons have
heen arrested for being implicated in the
riots of the last few days. The police
and marines are active. Troops were
held in the barracks, and sailors were
ready to land. President Peixoto an
nominees that aid from foreign warships

ANGRY ARCTIC EXPLORERS.
They Sometimes Had to Live on the Seal
Fat of the Land.

They Sometimes Had to Live ON the Seal
Fat OF the Land.
PHILADELPHIA September 30.-The
interview sent out from Washington
with Mrs. Peary, in which she expressed
surprise that any member of the eXpe-
dition to Greenland under her husbands
leadership should have found fault with
the quantity or quality of the food, ex-
cited the ire of the dissatisfied members
OF the party, and they vented their feel
ings somewhat freely this morning. At
first Messrs. Entriken, Astrupp, Clark,
Davidson and Swain were in favor oil
drawing up statement to the public,
giving an account of the expeditions
winter in Greenland and the causes for
dissatisfaction. They considered them
selves released from their pledges OF ST.
lence to Peary by Mrs. Peary giving an
interview. However, after some further
talk among themselves they decided to
await any further disclosures by Mrs.
Peary before they laid their case before
the public. Despite the decision not to
make joint statement, in conversation
some of the members of the party could
not prevent their feeling of bitterness
toward Peary from finding utterance.
One member of the party said the mem
bers OF the main expedition went with
Peary with the understanding that they
were to remain two years. Their expert
ence of his methods for a single year sui
feed them, and that experience accounts
for their coming back on the Falcon.
They found that everything was red
tape, and that rs regards glory their
commander wanted to hog it all"
Peary and his wife had their own quar-
tiers and every comfort obtainable, While
the others had to forage for themselves.
w. T. Swain, who went out as Peary's
private secretary, said:
"As regards our food, here is the bill of
fare: For breakfast-Corn meal mush
sprinkled bv Peary with sugar and a
sparing hand; bacon with all the fat
fried out of it; an occasional spoonful OF
Boston beans out of a can coffee. Lunch
Boiled seal meat, tasting like stale
mutton favored with coal oil corn bread
and tea. Dinner-Reindeer meat, when
we could get it, seal meat when we
couldn't beans occasionally, and-don't
omit this-one-half slice of white bread
and coffee. Sunday evening as Especial
| treat we had for desert one can of to-
matoes among the party. What Peary
and his wife had we don't know, They
! lived apart, and no one OF us was ever
during the whole time invited to their
quarters. Peary would order some OF us
| to 90 on seventy fve-mile journey to
procure food for his dogs, and only gave
us an hours warning, when hall day
could have been accorded. The hour
! did not sutficp to dry our fur stockings,
and we ran the risk of frozen feet. Ny
toe, which lanes me, was frozen in just
that way, and one thing | can add, no
| Arctic expedition can ever succeed which
takes woman along to hamper it,"
