THE TRAINED SEALS.
CAPTAIN WESTON TELLS ABOUT HIS
THREE PERFORMERS.

How He and Famous German Fisherman
Captured Bobby, Bibby and Tommy.
Some of Their Tricks-They Live Upon
Salt Water Fish.
OF all the different animals that 90 to
make up the animal kingdom fish is
perhaps the strangest that should be
chosen for training, yet the acts done by
the three seals under Captain Weston
guidance show that even fish can do
wonderful things. Those now perform
ing every day are the Oldest seals in
captivity. Seals are extremely delicate,
and they rarely live away from their
native sea and rocks for more than
year, and yet these seals, Bobby, Bibby
and Tommy, have been performing reg
ularly for six years. Their longevity is
undoubtedly due to the fact that they
receive great care.
The exact spot of the birthplace of
these seals is not known, but when they
were youngsters they were found on one
of the islands off Coxshaven in Germany.
The German government does all it can
to protect its fisheries, and as seals are
a constant menace to fish the govern
ment pays a reward of marks for the
capture of each SEAL There is famous
seal fisherman in Germany named
Workman, and when Captain Weston,
who had been on many sealing and
whaling expeditions in the North sea,
determined that he would give up the
life of sailor and become landlubber
it occurred to him that the training Of
seals would be novel and profitable He
went to Workman, and together they
captured the three sleek little fellows.
There are many islands outside of Coxs-
haven, and one of the smallest was
chosen. In describing the capture Cap
tain Weston said:
We stretched the net on one side Of one
of the smaller islands and then went to
the others and shot off pistols and made a
noise, driving many seals into the wa
ter and against the net. We had to
work very quickly, because the seals
dived down and became entangled in the
net, and a seal will drown if kept five
minutes under water. When we finally
pulled them up, we found that we had
about 30 seals, but when they found
themselves altogether they became en-
ragged and fought among themselves,
biting, scratching and tearing, even
killing one another, until there were
only three left, and these three are the
same three have today.
One has only faint idea of the
amount of patience which it requires to
teach fish, for such a seal really is.
1t looks easy TO see one of my seals play
the banjo or a harp, but it took me
three months of hard work every day
to teach them to do this even in an i'm
perfect manner, and the only reason
that l can give is that they have been

HE ROWard.

Redwood, little town south of here,
is all agog, not only in colored circles,
but also among the white brethren.
The trouble is that a certain colored
brother who takes an active part in re-
ligious circles, and in whom his asso-
ciates have placed implicit confidence,
has been detected having a piece Of
sticky fly paper in his hat when he went
to take up the collection at the church.
All the coins that were dropped upon
the fly paper staid there, and it is amaz-
ing how the big pieces crowded the little
ones off. When the audience had been
solicited, this smooth individual would
advance toward the pulpit and turn his
hat upside down over that of another
who had been soliciting the audience on
the other side of the house. All the
coins that dropped belonged to the
church, and that which remained in the
hat was to remunerate him for the
good he had done in the blessed work.

THE KING HAS PETS.
THIS REFERS TO THE LION AND LIT
TILE ANIMALS HE LOVES.

Professional Trainer OF wild Animals
Tells Some Interesting Incidents The
Fearlessncss ofPiEoOns Among the Kings
of Beasts.
The way lions treat the tiny creatures
Of animal life is study. 1t may be that
there is some animal Languages, aud that
the legend of the little mouse which say
ed the lions life by gnawing the net has
become known to the deaizens Of the
Jungle and handed down as animal folk
lore, or it may be that the king Of beasts
has positive contempt for anything ex-
tremely small, but it is nevertheless a
fact that lions will not attack tiny ami
mails when they are put together. Pro-
fessor Edward Darling, than whom there
is no more profound student Of a lions
life and character in the country, has
made many curious experiments with
his five big beasts.
II never saw a lion kill rat or a
mouse" said Professor Darling, land |
have had many Of them put in the cage
with my five lions. My attention was
first drawn to this when was on my
way from London to Batavia, in Java,
on the ship Rotundo. Ihad my five lions
with me, and in the quarter of the ship
in which they were housed were many
rats. One day l saw Leo, my favorite
lion, lying down and holding between
his paws very loosely monster ship rat.
thought perhaps that the cat instinct
in the lion had made him catch it and
that he would probably play with it
awhile, then eat it, and SO I watched. I'm
agine, however, my surprise when l saw
him loosen the rat, and the rat made no
attempt to get away, but ran up and
over his gigantic paws and played with
him.
eve were long time making a trip,
and every day this ships rat went into
Leo's cage, and the two played together
as gently as two little children. made
several attempts to capture the rat, hop
ing that perhaps 1 might take it ashore
with me, but | could not succeed, and
promise you that old Leo did not like at
all my attempting to interfere with his
pet. When we got to Java, we had to
take the lion out, and Leo had to lose his
pet. He could have killed that rat a
thousand times, but he never did it.
'There was another instance subse-
quent to this where Leo had pet rat,
which makes me believe that the lion has
a real fondness for the rodent. 1t was
in 1881 in Calcutta. We were playing at
the MADAM, one of those gigantic places
in far India, and when / went in to see
my pets one morning saw that Leo had
found another rat for pet. Ny five
lions were all together, but this rat would
play only with Leo. There were many
other rats in the place, but the other
lions would not look at them. It seems

PART II-PAGES 9 TO IL.
HIS SILENT BRIDE.
She Vowed Mover to Speak to Him Again,
but Married Him Just the Same.


About 1S months ago Mrs Cartel was
Miss Fannie Brambley, a beautiful
young lady Of IS years, and Jerry Car
tell was her favored suitor. But, as is
generally the case with young lovers,
a quarrel arose between them, and in
the heat Of passion Miss Fannie snprily
bade her lover leave her presence and
vowed by high heaven she would never
speak to him again. The disconsolate
lover took his departure, but as he fair
ly worshiped the girl he ardently set
about to effect a reconciliation. At
last in answer to pitiful, pleading let
ter Miss Fannie relented and penned TO
him loving, forgiving message.
Overjoyed at the happy termination
of affairs, he hurried to the home of Miss
Fannie and was received warmly and
aifectionately, but without word of
welcome. Taking tablet and pencil
from desk, she began a written cover
sation as though she could not speak
word. She is very devout, a mem ber Of
the Methodist church, and was firmly
impressed with the idea thet if she
should break her rash VOW God would
punish her by striking her dumb, when
she could speak to no one.
The courtship proceeded with pencil
and paper for several months, and then
they were joined together in the holy
bonds of matrimony. During their
married life of nearly a year Mrs. Car
tell never spoke to her husband until
some days ago.
Last Christmas Mr. Cartel made his
wife present of handsome and costly
pair of vases. The other morning the
husband was bringing in an armful Of
wood and struck one of the vases and
knocked it to the floor, where it broke
into hundred pieces.
"Oh, Jerry, look what you have
donel" cried Mrs. Cartel.
She was horribly shocked at speaking
to her husband and believed that she
had been stricken dumb. To ascertain
the correctness of her belief she spoke
to him again and was overjoyed to dis
cover that her organs of speech had not
been in the least impaired.
In the happiness of again hearing his
wife speak to him Jerry folded her in
his arms, wept tears of joy and thanked
God for the breaking Of the vase. MIR.
and Mrs. Cartel feel as II a cloud had
been lifted from their home, and there
is not a happier couple today in Dyer
county. Trimble (Tenn.) Correspond
