SAAS OO1St "a1ruC.
their capture thought that by sur
prising them they could drive the
lions over the cliff, and that the tre-
mendous fall upon the sharp rocks
below would kill every one Of the
animals. The surprise was successful.
Every lion jumped to what seemed
certain death, but to the chagrin of
the hunters when they arrived at the
foot of the cliff where they expected
to find the lions either helplessly mutt
lated or dead, the last animal of the
herd was seen plunging into the sea.
The California sea lion is a tough GUS
toner
10 kill a sea lion the bullet must hit
him in or near the ear, for a ball in
any other part Of the body has no
more effect than it would in a grizzly
bear. Sea lions can scent a man as
readily as do deer, go that great eau
ton is necessary when approaching
within shooting distance The profess
s1onal lion hunter is a skilled marks
man, and in emptying the sixteen
shots from his rifle into a fleeing herd
he can usually shoot twelve Of the
beasts through the head, killing them
instantly. If wounded the lion reaches
water and escapes.
The sea lion eats fish, mollusks, and
sea fowl. Their principal feathery
food in northern waters is the gull.
and their manner of decoying and
catching these birds displays no little
degree Of cunning. When in pursuit
the animal dives deeply under water
and sWims some distance from where
it Disappeared; then rising cautiously
it exposes the tip of it's nose above the
surface, at the same time giving it a
rotary motion like that of a water
bug at play. The unwary bird on the
wing, seeing the object near by,
alights to catch it, while the sea lion
settles beneath the waves and at one
bound, with extended jaws, SEXES it's
screaming prey and instantly devours
it. 1t is estimated that sea lion eats
twenty-five to forty pounds Of fish
daily. He takes a large fish in his
mouth, gives it a shake, bites out a
large piece, drops it, and then diving
again, catches it, and rising to the
surface takes another nibble, until it
is consumed. At one time there were
25,O0O sea lions living in one Of the
large California bays. They ate more
fish than the fishermen caught, and an
effort was made to have the legisla-
ture offer a bounty Of 81 skin for
the hides Of these IONS Instead Of
that law was passed to protect the
animals in the harbor of San Fran
cisco, and fishing industries have suf-
fered in consequence The lion can 90
for month without food.
Hunters use the hides of the lions for
leather and glue The bristles or
whiskers are sent to China. The Mon
golians use these hairs for ornaments,
mounting them with gold. Lion livers
are used as medicine by the Chinese
and are considered a radical cure for
many acute diseases.

GOT A BIG BITE.

And the Fish Took the Bad Boy and
All to the Bottom.
Fishing is an interesting pastime at
present for a large number Of small
fry. Even gray-haired old fellows arm
ed with rods and lines, are to be seen
on fair days at points Of vantage along
the docks. Tom cod and sea cells are
caught in great numbers, while once
in a while a horrible appearing rat
fish is hauled in. These ratfish look
like a cross between 4 Chinaman and
the devil, and are armed with two
sWord-ike Ems, which protrude from
the sides ce the head like a French
dudes mustache, The swords are from
two to five inches in length, according
to the size Of the fish, and are yerv
strong, having q point as sharp as a
needle. Woe to the unlucly fisherman
who is struck by a ratfish, for the
wound smarts and pains dreadfully.
Yesterday a gang Of tough-loobing
street Arabs were fishing off the EN-.
bankment in the Northern Pacific
switching yard, and an old gentleman
with a benevolent countenance and
long gray whiskers was much interest
ga LII lie Sport. NOI seeing any fish
landed, the old man asked one of the
urchins, Gus Sampson:
What are you fishing for, my boy?''
"Bites,' answered the kid, with a
fendish grin.
At the same instant, as if by Divine
Providence, the old man was avenged,
for there was such a gigantic bite on
that boys line that boy, pole, line and
all were yanked off the dock and pulled
out of sight into the water. In a few
moments Gus rose to the surface with
his mouth, ears, eyes and nose full of
mud. He struck out for shore, while
the pole, which still foated on the sur
face, darted off at lively speed in an
opposite direction. - =,
Two Indians happened along In a
canoe and they gave chase to the pole:
They finally overlook it, and after half
an hours tedious work succeeded in
landing an immense rock cod, which
had in some mysterious manner been
hooked in the tail. The cod weighed
twelve pounds and three ounces, and
was bought by the benevolent old gen.
tleman with the long gray whiskers.-

Eight miles inland from this city the
sportsman can get the finest kind Of
mountain lion shooting, says a CORE
spondent Of the Chicago Tribune.
Eight miles out at sea, on the rook-
cries Of the Coronado islands, lions
bask in the sun and gambol in the
water by the thousands. On a clear
day they can be seen from the
Veranda Of the Hotel Florence through
powerful .!field-glass. It requires
skill to bag this lion of the sea. On
approaching the rookery occupied by
numerous herd one first hears their
long, plaintive howlings, as if in dis
tress; but when near them the sounds
become more varied and deafening.
The old males roar so loudly as to
drown the noise of the heaviest surf
among the rocks and caverns, and the
pups croak hoarsely or send forth
sounds like the bleating of sheep or
the barking Of dogs A rookery of
matured animals presents a ferocious
and defiant appearance, but becoming
alarmed at the approach of man, in
their efforts to escape to the water
they roll, tumble, and sometimes make
fearful leaps from high, precipitous
rocks. In one instance about twenty
lions were collected on the brink Of a
precipitous cliff at least sixty feet
above the rocks which shelved from
the beach below. The hunters seeking

The officials Of the Chicago fire de-
partment insist upon ascribing an in
cendiary origin to the recent desnuct-
i've fires in that city. Thus far there
has been no evidence to sustain such
theory. The conditions were all ia
vorable to a fire. The lumber piles
where it origin ated were as dry as TIM
der, and, the wind being high, the
fires once started soon got beyond
control. The absence Of new motive
for incendiarism in that district is an
additional argument against the the
DRY. Firemen always incline to the
idea Of ndiarism, even though the
facts fail to suggest or bear 1t out.

The knight Of rest slipped into the
back yard as if he had been guilty of
some offense, and putting an empty

California Sea Lion.

The chief use Of the great tusks of
the walrus is to aid in landing upon a
rocky shore and help in it's clumsy
locomotion. A walrus makes a ter
rife noise. His roar can be heard for
several miles. The animal, though saw
age in appearance, is harmless and in
offensive. If attacked or enraged he
is a terrible fighter, especially when
defending the young, toward which the
walrus exhibits much affection. A fair
sized walrus has a girth of 10 to IA
feet and weighs 2,OOc pounds, the skin
alone weighing $50 to 400 pounds, and
the head from, 60 to 80 pounds. The
