LION FARMING.
Little Cubs Given to Dog for Foster
Mother.

Little Cubs Given to n Dog for a Foster
Mother.
The greater part of the lions exhib-
tied to the public have, according to
showmen, been born and reared in trav-
cling menageries or caravans. Nova
days the breeding, training and rear
ing of wild beasts constitute a regular
business, and is carried on systemat-
ically.
AS soon as a loness has litter of
cubs they are taken away from Der
and given TO a collie, Newfoundland OF
other canine foster-mother. AS rule,
woman looks after both nurse and
cubs, the task usually falling TO the
lot of the mistress of the caravan.
When born the lions are like young
cats. The little family is usually &C.
commodated in a corner of the caravan,
or in the trainers private apartment.
In their infancy the young lions are
treated just like kittens.
When they are able to walk they
have the run of the place, play about,
and seem to look for and enjoy the
caresses that are bestowed upon them.
They recognize for long time the au-
thority, so to speak, of the foster
mother, and are obedient to her wishes,
even after they have considerably out
grown her in size.

quently in substantial sums. Indeed,
says London Answers, there is a recog-
nized champion player of Tip it," who
is open to back himself for C 25 to lick
creation"
And this is how it is played The
rival players take button, or some
small article, and sit on opposite sides
of a table. The beginner puts his
hands under the table, and, taking the
button in one of them, raises his closed
fists into view, and the business of the
other is to say in which hand the button
is held. The button changes sides as it
is found, and the game goes on until the
points are reached.
1t is often played with two or four a
side, and the champion will meet a
dozen at time, and discover the hand
holding the button by sort of instinct.
The position of the thumbs decides
whether the game is ''coddam" or Tip
it." On this trivial pastime hundreds
of pounds change hands every year in
some parts of Lancashire.

in the East.
The Syrian Arabs have changed tleir
style of dress less than any other ma
tionality. At any rate there is no
record of its having changed during
the period covered by human history,
either as regards male or female dress
or adornment. Saving only for his
firearms, there is no reason to believe
that the Bodouin of the desert does not
clothe and adorn himself exactly as he
did in the days of the Patriarchs, and
the women wear their ornaments in the
nineteenth century of the same shape
and in the same style as Sarah and Re-
becca did. Among articles of western
costume, the two oldest are probably
the Highland kilt and the smock-frock
of the west country English laborer. 1t
is not probable that either of them
has altered much for 1000 years. The
smock-frock was the peasant dress in
early Saxon times, and the kilt would
seem to be a development of the kirtle
or fringed girdle, which was probably
the earliest garment worn by man.

YESTERDAYS ELECTION.

The ordeal as to the result of yester.
DAYS election was practically over be-
fore twelve O'Clock last night. 1t was
then known that while the democratic
party in Alexandria, with all the odds
against it, had been victorious, the
country at large had expressed itself for
William Mckinley for President of the
United States, and, like law-abiding
people, true to the principles of democ-
racv, they left the streets for their
homes to quietly submit to the fiat of
The majority. There was something, at
l-lst. consoliug. With powerful odds
against them-money, negroes boilers,
epublicans and stay-al-homes-old AL
exandria had rolled up a democratic
naiority Iof over five hun Ell. She had

sinking. and has nothing 10 be ashamed
Of Old Belle Haven had set the ex-
ample; it was not her fault if her south
ern sisters are not in line. She had
registered her protest against mo-
aopolies, trusts, force bills and
5he thousand and one lis which
follow in the wake of repub-
lican misrule, and, though in the
minority from national standpoint.
she has no apologies TO make. Locally
the city has been placed in a better
position than it has been for years
The ection yesterday has thrown a
damper on the aspirations of some who
had been dreaming of wrestling the city
from the democrats by fusion or indie
pendent tickets. Yesterdays attempt
to break the democratic phalanX was
decided failure, and should prove q de-
terrent TO all who desire TO accomplish
such a result for some time / o come.
1t is generally conceded that yes
terday's election was one Of the quiet
est ever held in Alexandria. Though
tremendous issues were at stake and
the greatest determination eXemplitied
by the partisans OF the respective par
ties, there were practically 20 disorders
and the arrests made were few and for
misdemeanors only. Twenty extra
policemen were on duty from six
O'Clock in the morning until ten a;
night. These, with the regular force,
were on the alert all the time ready to
nip any semblance of disorder in the
bud. After dark the interest became
intense, and when it was known that
old Alexandria was to be put on record
as giving over FIVE hundred majority
for Bryan, Sewall and RiXey, cheers
rent the airs. Interest now centred on
the county, and the GAZETTE Office,
telegraph Offices, Opera House, bull
letin boards and other places where
the returns were announced were
thronged by crowds of people eager to
learn all that could he learned. The
first dispatches seemed to give demo
Gratis hope, but che later ones began TO
send chills rs tremendous majorities
were announced for the opposition.
Many, however, chung TO hope for some
time, until eventually it was seen there
was nothing further to hope for, that
the democratic party was il the minor
ity and that the election of 1896 was
a republican vSctory. This was the fat
from which there was no appeal. By
midnight the streets were about clear
ed of people and the city had resumed
its normal condition.
The vote in this city was as follows
