Gagged Tigers.


When you see the animals in the
park menageries pacing back and forth
restlessly in their cages, do not take it
for granted that the creatures are un-
happy or ven discontented. 1t may
be that h lion or the tiger or the po-
lar bear that moves about with appar-
emily ceaseless activity is only taking
his daily exercise, without which he
would pine and die soon. When the
wild creatures are in their native jun.
giles, they are kept pretty busy hunting
food. Thus each day they walk many
miles perhaps. In their narrow cages
in the parks they are plentifully sup
piled with food, but their brawny bod
les still demand a great amount Of ex-
crcise. Mile after mile Is paced of
daily by the uneasy creatures.
Usually they move with a long,
swinging stride, but when mcaltime
comes around then the step q,ickens
until. when the keeper appears with
his baskets Of meat. the tigers and
lions and other animals leap against
the bars and growl and whine and lash
their tails. In fact, they act like great.

MAGNITUDE OF THE LIQUOR.

fde FACTS presented says ffdliTy' ". 80
Farnam IN the Atlantic, warrant the
belief that careful study of the pure
~ economic aspects of the subject
must be of value to practical workers.
Ihat such an Investigation IL expected
TO be useful is seen from the generous
readiness with which persons engaged
IN the practical work of philanthropy
and the care of criminals and paupers
have assisted in collecting material
for the report And while it does not
deal with specific ways and means, It
does point out certain economic forces
which should be taken account OF In
all practical measures. The magnitude
of the liquor interest In itself Is OF
Importance. as showing the force
which is sure to be opposed to any
radical measures aiming at complete
prohibition, 1t would obviously be
impossible, suddenly and in a short
time, to wipe out trade which sup
ports 100000 people, and involves a
capital of 1857 100000 1t Is not sur
prising that the people whose llveli-
hood is connected with this business
should resist to their uttermost such
meaures. Even the farmer who sell
5S.000,000 bushels of product, have
q considerable interest In the matter,
as well as the landowners who rent
buildings, and the railroads and
steamboats, which furnish transporta-
ton. There Is no reason, however
! to suppose that those who live by this
traffic would not be quite as willing
to take up some other bus-
ness with the profits and the same
/ opportunities for employment. Any
measure aimed at the liquor traffic
Will, therefore improve its chances OF
! success If it can, Mt the same time,
create a new field Of employment for
/ those who will inevitably be thrown
out of work by the restriction of the
consumption of alcohol. Our COM
mittee has not entered into this In
vestigation in detail for lack of time;
but 1t Is obvious that such forms OF
amusement az the bicycle, the camera,
and most out-of-door sports are i'm
portant competitors OF the saloon,

Aguinaldo's Wild Story.
London, May 16.-The Filipino junta
has received the following message
from Aguinaldo, cabled from Hong

'"The Filipino government, in ac-

country, has decided to continue the
war at all costs until independence is
secured. The Filipinos energetically
refuse the American peace overtures,
based on restricted autonomy coupled
with promises of subsequent self-gov-

strict fulfllment of the articles OF
the American constitution and treaties

will take steps al once TO replace the

supported by one or two gunboats. The
