Handling Wild Animals.

When you see an animal trainer per
forming with ferocious beasts you
may be quite right if you imagine the
man as a fearless master of them,
but if you think for an instant that
there is no danger, you are wholly
wrong. A trainer never confronts the
beasts and compels them to do his
bidding but he literally takes his life
in his hands.
He is so used to the danger that he
does not think of it each time, and he
holds his mastery of them by sort of
power that becomes habit-second ma
ture, as it were-just as he eats his
meals or performs other common en-
Payments.
OF all animals, keepers say, the tiger
is the worst and most treacherous. II
is necessary to-@keep-the eye fixed
pretty constantly upon it, or it may re-
volt at any moment. There is only
one secret, if such it can be called, of
handling wild beasts, and that is to
be brave and make them fear you. If
they have the slightest cause to think
you timid they will take advantage OF
it instantly, and they are shrewd and
knowing in their way and constantly
watching for some moment of tenn
porary forgetfulness or timidity.-St
Louis Globe Democrat

The figures for the I'd and 4th stories and all
the back windows Of the old North were much
more intricate and beautiful. In the third
story Of our college the upper sashes presented
"Geo. 4 (Plus) Washington" and of the East
college, General + (Plus) Mercer" On the
chapel windows we're the dates "1776-1Ss1.''
All day Saty, and part of Monday Olcott and

candles, cutting them in short pieces, turpea-
timing the wicks and then lighting them to be
sure they would go. The penalty for leaving
this undone would certainly have been the
smashing In Of all our fenestras insertas. Usu-
ally the students have had celebration of the
4th out In town, but owing to a misunder-
standing between the two societies there was
none this year.
Thro' the day, however, the roar of artillery
was kept up SO necessarily and noisily as in
Albany. In both refectoriesa very fine Fourth

PRICELESS DOCUMENT.
How the Original Declaration Of II
dependence Is Preserved.
No. A, WEST COLLEGE,
Ox,r~rnD<nr T,,1- IN fQl,

How the Original Declaration of In
dependence Is Preserved.
Did you ever see the Declaration of In
dependence-the original manuscript? If
you have not, you probably never will, for
now it lies in the archives of the state de-
partment, incased in glass and locked in a
steel vault. Unless you have some ex-
traordinary reason for viewing it, the Gus
todian will not show it to you. To be
sure, faithful reproduction of the famous
document hangs in an upright glass case
in the showroom of the state department.
This room is a part of the library, and
many valuable historic relics are on view
there.
Several years ago the original Declare
ton hung in the case where the facsimile
appears today. A short time before it had
been proposed to take 1t to the World s
fair at Chicago. The managers of the fair
were extremely anxious to secure it. There
was even talk of shipping it in special
car under guard of a squad of United
States regulars, but the secretary Of state
would not consent It was within his dis
erection to let any of the state papers go to
Chicago, and he did send some very pre-
cious manuscripts there, but the Declare
ton, he said, had too great value to be
subjected to any risk.
The discussion led to careful examina-
tion of the document. 1t is on parch-
ment, which does not deteriorate much
with the lapse of time, but the librarian
reported that the ink, which had been ex-
posed to bright light for many years,
showed signs of fading. So in February,
1894, the parchment was taken from its
frame, put between sheets of glass, sealed
in hermetically, slowed away in the steel
vault, and there it lies beside the original
of the constitution of the United States
and the appeal of the colonists to King
George. The copy answers slIordinary
purposes, and, as the text Of the Declara-
ton has been verified and reproduced
again and again, there Is no longer any
real need to consult the original It is
taken out only at long intervals to- Be
shown to some distinguished visttor.-
