Tanning Wild Animals by Electricity.

Science has come to aid the lion
tanner in subduing the wild beast. The
red hot iron will, in future, be cast
aside as unnecessary and out Of date.
Live wires, surcharged with electrici-
ty that battles the lions 6crcest as
saults, and burn and main him badly
have taken the place Of the lash and
scorching iron. A lion tanner Of Aus
tria, Louis Koemmenich, has been the
first TO call in the assistance OF the
Lightning to subdue wild beasts.
Kocmmenich has invented what he
calls the electrical subjugator. This
is shield of electric wires that fasten
on the back of the lion tanner, and are
connected with dynamo by wire OF
sufficient length to allow koemmenlch
to move around the cage.
In his hand he will carry charged
metal ball on an insulated handle, to
be used as the red hot iron was IN
former days.
The dynamo is operated by an as
sistant outside the cage.
Should lion show disposition to
lean on Koemmenich, he invites at
tack by deliberately turning his back
to the lion and apparently encour-
aging an onslaught.
When the beast springs his paws
come in contact with the electric
shield, and he receives shock Of
1900 volts from the dynamo.
The operator can, if necessary, IN
crease the voltage so as to shock the
animal to death.
Thus far the device has worked like
magic. One dose of lightning is sufh-
cicnt for the average lion. Whips
and even hot irons they have dared.
but no animal has yet troubled koem-
menich after receiving into its body
l 500 volts from the electric subiuga-
tor. Whenever Koemmenich enters
the cage after an encounter with a
lion that has run against the electrical
subiugator he will cover away into q
corner Of the cage, and never needs
any further punishmcnt.-New lorh

WAR CLOUDS AT MADRID.
LITTLE CONFIDENCE IN THE POPE'S
ABILITY TO AVERT A CONFLICT

THE LONDON TIMEss' CORRESPONDENT QUOTES
CONSERVATIVE ORGANS AS PROVING THAT
THE LIKELIHOOD OF PEACE IS GONE.
london April 6.-The Madrid correspondent
OF The Times" says THE horizon blackens
once anew and Congress is the cloud which
grows more imminent The reported mediation
OF the Pope sent stocks up yesterday with
rush. To-day they may fall back just swiftly.
The London correspondent Of the Epoca' sees
reason for declaring that President Mckinley
has not communicated with His Holiness. and
the Epoca' is not an alarmist organ.
THE talk OF an armist!ce had done something
toward inducing calm, although armistice is ad
mittedly no magic word per Sc. but verbal
expression for a pact struck by at least two
militant parties. To-day 1t is being remem-
bered that before the armistice projected In
Cuba can become an accomplished fact no fewer
than five parties must be consulted in some form
or other. These are the United States, the
Autonomists OF Cuba the Autonomsts of the
mother country, the Government OF the mother
country and the rebels in the field.
1T has been usual Of late perhaps unreason-
ably usual to attribute every sinister impress
sion to a jngo source. No imputation what

tional. and has Loyalty stood by the Government
