GALS HARD TO IRAN.
Years Of Patience and Plenty Of Kindness
Before They VIII Learn Tricks.

Years Of Patience and Plenty of Kindness
Before They WIN Learn Tricks.
An English exhibitor of trained ami
mails, Mr. Leoni Clarke, is reported as
saying that, though he has educated all
sorts Of animals, from lions downward,
he has found that the most difficult Of
them all is the cat. He has to treat this
creature with extraordinary care. A dog
is sensible, a monkey accommodating,
and a rat either forgives or forgets-but
a cat She is a hopeless bundle Of sensi-
bilities. Strike her once, IL only by ac-
cident, and she will never perform again.
Kindness is not only polite, it is abso-
lutely necessary in the training Of cats.
Although 80 cats are sufficient for his
entertainment, he has 60 or more with
him, for cats are very slittish creatures,
and when they take the whim in Their
heads it is useless to take them on the
stage. When Mr.. Clarke enters the stable
the mewing is prodigious, and he is in
stantly buried in moving mantle of
cats. 1t took him four years to trair
some Of his animals before he could pu
them upon the stage. A parachute cat
which climbs up u rope to the roof o
the theater and flies down by parachute
| is the second which has done the trick
| A curious feature of the show is the wa,
in which the cats walk over rope o
rats and mice and canaries, steppin,
gingerly between the little flutterinl
bodies This mighty forbearance Il
brought about by training up the cat,
from kittens in the same cage as the
rats and birds. There are only six of his
cats that Mr.. Clarke dares trust among
the rats. The rats and mice come from
Java Exchange.

A HORSES INTELLIGENCE.
The Destruction Of n Levee In Louisiana
Prevented by n Noble Animal

w ANbbit
Your correspondent met a gentleman
yesterday who gives the following ac-
count Of n most singular evidence Of in
telligence ON the part Of horse belong
ing TO X. l.. Moore of this parish. The
horses name is Dixie, and Moore raised
him from colt and is much attached to
the animal. During the spring Of 1894
Dixie's knee was hurt while employed
in repairing levees, and for some weeks
thereafter he was not able TO work Mt
all and was allowed TO run loose in the
pasture and about the place.
One morning, when the hands were all
in the fields at work and Moore himself
was riding after them, they heard a vio-
lent ringing Of the big plantation bell
dreadful had happened 10 his wife or
children perhaps, Moore put spurs to
his horse, and calling TO the hands TO
follow galloped up to the house. When
he got there, he found Mrs Moore and
the children safe and sound and very
much amused at old Dixie, who had
managed TO open the yard gate and was
pulling on the bell rope like a crazy
thing All their efforts to drive the
horse away had been in vain. He only
continued to ring the bell more loudly
Moore began to suspect that Dixie
might know what he was about, after
all, and went out to investigate. When
the horse saw his master, he let go the
bell rope and ran off toward the pasture,
looking back and tossing his head at ev-
cry step, as II 10 say, Come on"
Moore soon saw that something unusual
had occurred and followed after Dixie
AS fast as he could The horse made
straight for the levee at the lower end Of
the pasture and stopped short under a
big cottonwood tree.
When Moore came up, what was his
astonishment to see "A little break in the
levee, with the water trickling through.
Quickly summoning the hands, the
breach was soon healed
But for Dixie's timely warning, how
ever, the levee would have gone and
the whole place would have been over
flowed. Bedford Ua-) Cor. Philadel-

The cleanest, brightest safest and really

for use in the family residence, is the incan,

be safer. A few days ago prominent gen

the office of the Electric Company and said:
'Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once; no more lamps for me-
Last night lamp tipped over and 1t came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite a number IN

TO-DAY'S TELEGRAPHIC NEWS.
From Honolulu.

SAN FRANCISCO, Apl. 2O.-Honolulu,
April IS correspondence of the United
Press, per steamer Australia. Minister
T.. A. Thurston arrived this morning in
company with Finance Minister Da-
mon. Mr., Thurston said that no change
whatever had taken place in his official
relations with Secretary Gresham, and
that he knew of no foundation for
newspaper statements on that subject.
Foreign Minister Hatch confirmed that
statement, adding that this government
had received no intimation about it
from Minister Willis. Col. V. V. Ash
ford has been pardoned out ofprison on
condition that he leave the islards.
1t is learned here that publ senti-
ment in Japan is strongly turned in the
direction oftaking possession OF Hawaii;
There can be no doubt that small
operating with the resident japanese,
japanese squadron with !, 900 troops, &C.
could easily overcome any resistance
possible for all the rest of the popula-
ton of Hawaii to make. The feeling
of this government is becoming clear
that they may at an early day find
themselves under the necessity of sur
rendering these islands to England in
order to escape from the japanese ag.
gregation, unless the United States
adopts definite and decided policy of
protection.

Mrs. Parnell.

BoRDENTowN. N. j., April 20.-Mrs.
Della T. S. Parnell, the mother of the
late Charles Stewart Parnell, who was
murderously assaulted by an unknown
man Thursday night on the roadside
near her home, "Ironsides." lay in an
unconscious condition for 16 hours in
the home of Farmer John Casey,
whittier she was conveyed after the as
sault. The examination made by the
physicians developed the fact that Mrs.
Parnell had been struck with blunt
weapon on the right side of the head
just above the ear. There were no in
dications of a fractured skull. Shortly
before 1 o'clock this morning Mrs. Par
nell regained consciousness and DR..
Shipper administered sedatives, and
expressed the opinion that his patient
has chance for recovery. He will
question her to-day as to the assault,
when she has had needed rest. There
is theory that the crime was commit
ted more for the purpose of robbiDg
Mrs. Parnell of political papers than for
the purpose of getting money.

A RISING RAILROAD MAN.-Quite a
number of changes among the officials
of the Southern Railroad Company
have just been announced by President
Spencer. Among these is the promo
ton of Mr.. J. S. Barbour Thompson to
the position of assistant general superin-
tendent, with headquarters at Atlanta.
GA. In importance this position is
second only in the operating depart
ment to that of Col. W. 81. Green, gen.
eral superintendent. The promotion
of Mr.. Thompson will be very crafty
ing to his large circle of friends, partic-
ularly in Maryland and Virginia. Mr..
Thompson possesses very decided
business and political sagacity, and
has worked his way from a
clerkship with the old Virginia
Midland Railway Company to his
present responsible position. In every
position assigned him he has acquitted
himself with credit. In addition, Mr..
Thompson, who is an earnest demo
cratic worker, has for years exercised
large influence in the councils of his

How TO PREVENT DIsHoNEsTY.-The
surest and simplest way to prevent ir-
Irregularities in a business house is to
employ only those whose sense OF
honor has been scientifically tested. Of
course, it would neither be possible nor
necessary to have all positions occupied
by persons of high grade of honesty,
but the principal posts should and could
be thus supplied.
fit is desired to select an individual
for a position of trust who shall be alb
solutely unpurchasable a numberlof de-
finite rules should be observed: First
there should be good development of
the bony system. The fibre should be
firm. There should be considerable har-
mony and symmetry in the whole or
ganization. The most important con.
dition of all should be the development
of the rear top head. If the brain is
finely developed at the seat of the love
of Justice the next step should be to
observe the relative development of the
other parts of the brain. If the other
regions are for the most part fully de-
veloped without exhibiting any abnor-
malities then the minor indication, such
as symmetry of the ear, the form Of
the eyes, ETC., should be carefully taken
into account. fla the signs are favor
able we may be as certain as to the
honesty of such q person as we can be
certain of anything.-Phrenologi
