UNCLE SAM'S MENAGeRlE'

Animals Kept at the Department. oi AZ
riculture For Experimental Purposes
1t is not generally known that the ue'
nartment Of agriculture has menageii0
in connection with it, but such is 'le
case The menagerie is not very large
one. nor does it contain any rare VI
strange animals. Most OF them are oi
the domestic variety.
IT is part of the division OF animal
industry, and the animals are USED 10
develop interesting cases of disease ana
To illustrate the effects of an epidemic
of n particular kind which the division
NAV wish to experiment on with we"
of stamping it out and to test various
kinds Of foods of which trial IS tnoueht
to be efflcacious.
Comprised in this collection OF AMI
mails arc rats and mice, guinea pigs
rabbits, different sorts OF fowls sons
cattle and sheep and few others. Inc
larger of the animals are kept at tne
breeding place Of the department, Oh
the Benning road while others are dom
iciled in the basement Of the division
of animal industry laboratory, near the
bureau of engraving and printing.
Down in the basement, under the lab
oratory, which was visited recently by
q reporter, were seen number OF coops
and cages, in which were grouped gum
ca pigs, rabbits and chickens. The
animals seemed to be perfectly at home
and formed a seemingly happy family
as some guinea pigs were i'll the cage
with rabbits. One of the little white
and black creatures was nibbling at the
whiskers of sleepy looking rabbit
which blinked contentedly, as II 1T en-
ioyed the operation or was too lazy TO
resist any trespass on the part OF the
guinea pig.
A dilapidated looking chicken, which
had much the same appearance as has
tramp who has been forced to saw wood
for a meal at friendly inn," rested
on top of q cage. The guinea pigs seem,
ed to be the life Of the place and ran in
and out with apparently little or nc
concern whether "school kept OR not. .
On some of the cages where the rab
bits were confined, printed i'll large
black letters was the word "rabies .
Upon the cards also were tho warning:
to the attendants and Others not to put
their hands in the cages. This meant
that the animals had been inoculatet
with hydrophobia virus and it was
therefore dangerous to handle the ami
mails. A further precaution taken II
such cases, it is said, is not to inoculatt
animals carnivorous by nature, as they
become terribly ferocious, or any ami
mails whose chief means Of defense is by
biting.
A cat or dog, for instance, will striv'
to bite when afflicted with tho disease
while II rabbit, which is purely vege
tartan, will simply nope and die with
out making any resistance.
1t was stated that one steer, whicl
had the "blackleg," remained at on
of tho experiment stations for abou
eight years, and the persons there reall,
became attached to Washington
Star.

quently amusing to Americans There
have been some very striking instances
OF it i'll recent years, but the mother of

ried off the palm in this respect Sal
VIM, it is said, was so penurious that he
bought a sandwich OH the street for 5
cents rather than pay for his supper at
hotel, and one Of the stories told about
him on his last visit to this country was
that once in Philadelphia he gave the
porter of hotel penny and told him
to buy him three tacks. The actor had
discovered that his trunk was damaged,
and he wanted to repair 1t himself.
Tamaqua was notorious here for his
stinginess. 1t was said that he sold the
tickets sent to him in view of his artist S
privilege and hired his own brother as a
valet because he could be got at cheap
figure Then he used to make him roll
his trunks around OH truck at the for
oign custom houses rather than nav the
portors a fee for the work. Herr Van
Blene marked as curiosity and sent
back to England hotel bill of fare on
which he had marked the price, ST.. so,
for q tenderloin steak as one of the won
ders OF an extravaganza and youthful
country. 1t may have been nothing
moro than good business Judgment
which prompted Mile. Calve to look for
business manager while she was here
and then express the greatest astonish-
ment that such an assistant of the most
capable kind could not be hired for $40
u week.
These are some Of the stories told
about tho highly paid foreigners who
come to exhibit themselves here. But
Cleo's mother holds tho record. It is
said that sho astonished the servants ot
the Imperial hotel by washing her
aaughter's clothes in tho bathtub and
ironing them herself. On tho day before
