There are tanners and trainers. A tanner
is simply man OF unlimited nerve. A
trainer has nerve and judgment. My friend

about as many tricks as can be taught q

consciously suggest new trick. 81 had to

them was 30 stubborn that determined
to leave him for the last. When came to

him sharp blow from below ON the end
of the nose with my cane, the only weapon
ever take into the den. The blow stung
him 80 it turned him around, and as IL to
escape another he jumped up to the bars
and remained standing with his forefeet
upon one of them. He gave me look
which said plainly, 'I'll stop here If you
won't do it again. He looked superb
standing there drawn up to his full height.

Discovery Of Columbus, Map Of America

Discovery OF Columbus Map of America.
The remarkable discovery of copy of
map by Columbus, drawn on letter writ
ten from Jamaica in July, 1903, is record
ed by Nature. This, although only rough
pen and ink sketch, shows exactly the
opinion of Columbus himself as to the part
Of the world he had reached, which he be-
lieved to be the east coast Of Asia. The
original map, drawn by Columbus and
his brother Bartholomew, was presented
TO a priest named Hieronymo, who gave
1t, together with description, to Alexan-
der Strozzi, a noted collector of early yoy-
ages. He is supposed to have copied the
original map roughly on the margin Of
the letter from Columbus, which he had
bound In a volume with other documents.
and this volume is now in the National
library at Florence, where the existence
and Significance of the map were discoy-

manded them. The present proposal
was not introduced as a general settle
ment OF the business OF the house. The
best solution OF the difficulty might be
the establishment Of subordinate leeis-
latures.
Sir George Trevllyan spoke in sup
port of the proposal. He said that the
Conservatives always had the specter
of home rule before them. The pres
pect, he added. was small one and
II something like It was adopted the
demand ere long would be not for a
grand committee, but for home rule.
Joseph Chamberlain asked why. II
the proposal was so small the gov
eminent was so infatuated MS to per-
sist in ii. 1t was, he declared pre-
paration for home rule and a school
for young home rulers. 1t was dress
rehearsal Of the performance Intended
for the benefit OF all divisions Of the
kingdom. The Campbell Zimmerman
accusation OF obstruction against the
Conservatives was piece OF pecksnif-
fan hypocrisy. The committee was not
necessary and 1t continued the same
indefensible proposition as the Irish
home rule bill. as It gave the Scotch
members full control OF their local
affairs, and also left them free to vote
on all English affairs, If this was not
home rule 1t was playing with separa-
ton and would innnme the differences
already prevailing among the different
sects of the kingdom.

clinlng to sanction the proposals. This
was rejected by vote of 252 to 2l9.
The house then agreed to the amend
ments to the Behring sea bill made
by the house Of lords.
