A number of us were sitting close

---y oU4vr rats IN the place, but
the other lions would not look at them.
In Hamburg once knew q case Of a
sick tiger to whom 1t was desmed
necessary to give some fresh, warm
blood to tone up his SYSTEM, and to
further this end live rabbit was put
in the cage with the tiger. The tiger
played with the rabbit for days before
he would touch 1t. He finally killed
and ate it.
Nov, there is another peculiar thing
about lions, and that is that they will
not eat the flesh of fowl. You might
tempt them with canvasback duck or
the daintiest SQUAD, but they would re-
fuse it. This is scientific fact l
have tried it many times. remember
once having swan which had broken
it's wing. We killed it, dressed it care
fully and threw it into the cage of the
lions, but they would not touch it, and
it finally had to be taken out and
thrown away. have repeatedly put
pigeons alive into the cage, just to see
what they would do. have thrown
grain down among the lions. and the
pigeons have actually got down and
hoped around the big brutes. even
hopping on their backs, the lions max
ing no attempt to disturb them, even
seeming to enjoy their companionship.
"Now. there is something strange
about this which is rather difficult to
explain. To my mind, it argues that
lion is not brutal in his instincts.
Savage, he undoubtedly is. Fierce at
all times, but fierce with Justice. l be-
lieve every one of my lions has con-
science; I known every one of them
knows the difference between right
and wrong; they know their wondrous
power and are charitable. They
would never attempt to injure some
thing which in no way could do them
1nrm. The study Of a lion, his habits,
and capabilities, is one Of tie
most interesting l know. 1t otSers
ield as yet comparatively unknown,
out the more one goes into it, the more
lime one takes to find out just what q
ion is, the more he is convinced that
lie has rightly been named the king OF
beasts. IN. Y. Tribune.

Gently, said: 81 never saw q lion kill
a rat or mouse, and have had many
of the little animals put in the cage
with my five lions. My attention was

lions with me, and one day | saw Leo,
my favorite lion, lying down and hold

that the cat instinct in the lion had
made him catch 1t, and that he would
probably play with it awhile, then eat

with me, but could not succeed ana
old Leo did not like at all my attempt

was another instance subsequent to
this where Leo had pet rat, which

MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL

Both financial and commercial affairs have
zen quiet this week, though the merchants
report fair business. In New York money
on call was quoted at LAP per cent. Prime
mercantile paper 2a.s5 per cent. In Balti-
more money was easy, with good general
demand for loans for business uses at 3i2 to
per cent. Railroad and local shares are
quiet at about unchanged prices.
New YORK, Nov. 30.-11 a. m.-Sugar
and distillers monopolzed the trading at the
Stock Exchange during the early morning
session and both were heavy and lower. The
price of sugar broke 35s to 1915, and vast
number of stop loss orders were executed on
the way down while Sc 900 shares were sold.
Tho break was due to the decision of the
managers to shut down the refneries. The
break in sugar and distilers led to general
decline of Y to 3. per cent, but when sugar
rallied to SAL the railway list improved and
moved up y to 70 per cent At II o'clock
speculation was steadier in tone.

THOUGH prize fighting has been
practiced from the earliest times
aud by the most civilized and
cultured nations, there is no
doubt of its brutality. Therefore,
legitimate and proper efforts to SUP
press it are commendable. But it is
not at all wonderful that the promoters
of that "sport" should protest against
the prohibition of "sparriug" exhibit
tions, with boxing gloves, when many
of the newspapers of the country are
filled with the most elaborate accounts
of so-called football" games, in
finitely more brutal and dan.
gerous than prize fights could
possibly be, and in which the wounded
more numerous than those in the Jap
anese army in some Of its fights with
that of old Cathay, are dragged off the
field, bleeding and delerious, amid the
plaudits of admiring multitudes, among
the most enthusiastic of whom are
many "ladies." But the inconsistencies
Of human nature are no more apparent
now than they always have been and
always will be, and now as ever their
chief purpose is to afford marks to those
who shoot folly as it flies.

AMONG THE numerous candidates for
the chaplaincy of the next q. S. House
of Representatives is negro, who, from
the number of his scars, the results OF
wounds received at elections in the
South, must have been, ifhe be not now,a
most active, if not an offensive and per-
nicious partisan. AS the House will
have an immense republican majority,
the result in no small part of the solid
negro vote, the negro element of the
country's population, according to high
so-called democratic authority, should
certainly be recognized in its organiza-
ton, and as it chaplains do not have to
associate with its members, there would
be no danger OF his falling from grace,
as was recently the case with negro
chaplain in the army, as stated by HIM
self at his trial.

Must not Fight.

NEW YORK, Nov. 30.-"The football
game between Yale and Princeton at
Manhattan field tomorrow will have
to be purely scientific one, and not
an exhibition of brutality" declared
Police Superintendent Byrnes this
morning. The superintendent an
nounced that he had given orders to
stop the gameif it proved to be any
thing else but purely scientific con-
test between the college teams. SUI
perintendent Byrnes talked freely
about the matter this morning. he
said i: am determined that the football
game between the two college teams at
Manhattan field tomorrow, shall
not assume the character of brutal
prize fight between lot men. There
is no violation of law in playing pure
ly scientific game of football, but when
it degenerates into an exhibition OF
brutality in which the players adopt
prize fighters tactics and MAIN each
other for life, it becomes violation o.
the law and 1 do not propose to permit
such an infraction. The games in the
past have been nothing more or less
than what can be termed brutal exhibi-
tions

IN SYLvANIA COUNTY, Georgia, a
gang of negroes who were arrested for
arson have confessed that they were
melted to commit their crimes by white
men, who advised them 10 organize and
burn out their white democratic neigh

ed them of their right to vote and have
their vote correctly counted. The ia
NOUS dream of the man who in his
dream went to hell and saw that every
republican there had negro between
himself and the fire was true. The ne
groes are naturally we'll disposed, and
were it not for the white scalawags

would be no trouble with them. And
though they are invariably sufferers,
they continue to follow the same lead,
all the same.

FRIDAY EVENING, NOV. 80. 1894.
A1LuprNe to the proposition to Gre

ALLUDING to the proposition to Gre
ate a commission to improve the
finances and currency of the country a
republican newspaper says, its adoption
would be very close to saying tnaC
popular government is not to be relied
upon.n There would be no closeness
about it; it would be saying 80, and
what's more, it would be true, and'
still more, popular government can not
be relied upon, whether the referred to
proposition be adopted or not. lfpop'
MAR government could be relied upon,
the war between the States would not
have occurred, with all its resulting
blood, misery, poverty and debt; the
country would not be overrun with
millions of foreigners who have no in
terest in its welfare, who compete with
the natives for work, and return to their
homes when work is scarce, as they
have done during the last year; the
women would be content to stay at
home, and not be seeking public office
and other employment from which
their mothers would have revolted; the
negroes would be happy on the South
ern plantations, and not be taking
white mems places in the North, nor
be crowding the jails and penitentiaries
and affording subjects for Judge Lynch;
and, finally, the people would not be
electing Presidents and congressman
whom they repudiate two years after
wards, and who are so incompetent for
their positions that they talk of dele
eating their constitutional duties to
commissions of their own creation.
Reliance upon popular government is
chiefly professed now by demagogues
who hope to derive some selfish benefit
from such government.

SToppED DIVORCE PRocEEDrNGs-Major
George A. Armes aud his wife, Mrs. Lucy
Armcs, spent peaceful Thanksgiving. Pre-
paratory to it they stopped all proceedings in
the divorce case. They were to take testi.
mony, first one, then the other, for the next
sixty days. Mrs. Armes was to live at their
country home in Fairfax and have the Gus
tody of the children, giving the father tho
privilege of seeing them twice week if he
would not annoy his wife. He was to pay her
$40 month almony and money for expenses
in the suit. and Hthey were to join in procuring
money on their property to meet existing
membranes and to pay expenses. But on
Tuesday they had a conference at which they
agreed on terms, and Wednesday Mrs. Armes
directed the clerk Of the Equity Court, in
Washington, to dismiss the divorce suit. The
relations between them are left very nearly
as directed by the order OF the court detailed
above, but no divorce testimony will be taken.
