ANIMALS WITHOUT FEAR.
Some That Seem Not to Know What It
Is to be Afraid.
expected

Some That Seem Not to Know What 1t
Is to be Afraid.
In contrast with the animals that
show great fear of man and that dis
trust all unfamiliar sights and sounds
we find others that seem not to know
what it is to be afraid. You have prob
ably noticed that some animals will
make friends fearlessly the moment
they meet you, just as some children
are never shy, because they take it for
granted that everyone is their friend
There is difference, however, between
fearlessness and courage. Let us give
you an example of what we mean.
If in walking across field you flush
a partridge and she pretends to be
lame, fluttering at your feet, doing all
she can to attract your attention, it is
not because she feels no fear. On the
contrary, she is in an agony of terror.
Her nest is close by, her children cam
not save themselves, and she is offer
ing you her life for theirs. That is not
fearIessness; it is courage, and cour-
age Of the highest kind. The brave
mother bird that is ready to die for
her little ones fears more for them
than you can understand.
True fearIessness, on the other hand
is perfectly ignorant, and touches our
hearts in a different way. a naturalist
whom we know tells a pretty story of
meeting a little mouse one day in the
middle of a mountain lake. The tiny
creature was swimming vigorously for
the shore, but when the man in the
boat stretched out friendly oar to
meet him the little mouse ran up it
at once and into the palm Of the stran-
gers hand, where "he sat for some
time and arranged his fur and warmed
himself He did not" the naturalist
tells us, show the slightest fear" II
was probably the first time he had
shaken hands with a human being and
he liked it. He was what We call a
meadow mouse, but he had doubtless
lived all his life in the woods, and was
strangely unsophisticated. How his lit
tie round eyes did shine, and how he
shifted me to find out if l were more
dangerous than I appeared to his
sight

HORNLESS CATTLE.

An exchange says that hOrnleSS cat
than the exception. At all events, it
looks a possibility, since dehorning has
come to be so popular. At first the
practice was objected to as being cruel
and unnatural. The early method OF
dehorning with a saw was undoubt-
eddy slow and painful, but specially
constructed clippers are now used that
often remove a horn in single second,
and with so little suffering that feed
ing is continued as usual, and the oper-
alton is really humane, the frequent
injuries in herds from goring being
prevented The horns have become ut
terly useless, being no longer needed as
protection against natural enemies. In
calves less than three weeks old the
embryo horns can be removed with one
stroke of a sharp knife, or they can be
treated with a caustic sufficiently pow
erfu1 to destroy them. For three years
the Maine experiment station has de-
horned calves by rubbing the horns
four or five times with caustic potash
In every case but one the operation has
been successful, the calf in the excep-
ton having reached the age of 50 days
before treatment, with the result that
dwarfed horns an inch or an inch and
a half long were subsequently develop
ed. A breed from these dehorned cat
tie, born without horns, is confidently
expected.

GERMANY SORRY.
She Wunts the Commission Hurried to
Samoa and Prompt Action Taken.
II Found Guilty the German Government
VIII Approve of the Arrest Of the
Manager Of the Plantation on
which Massacre Occurred.

BERLIN, April 14.-The United States
embassy at noon Thursday gave out
the following statement: 1--WE have re-
ceived from the foreign Office an ac-
count of the latest conflict in Samoa.
The Germany government expressed
sympathy and took occasion to urge
the adoption of the unanimity rule in
the findings of the Samoa commission,
in order that the German commissioner,
Baron Speck Won Sternberg, might sail
for Samoa at the earliest moment pos
sible. The German government urged
that only the early arrival Of the COM
mission will prevent further serious
bloodshed. Thursday morning Baron
Won Bulow informed the American
ambassador that Great Britain has at
last agreed to the unanimity rule, the
United States also agreeing. and that
the commission can probably proceed
to the islands without delay"
The German press Thursday morn
ing gives Wednesdays news calmly
and mostly without comment. The
Cologne Gazette remarks: 1--WE need
not say that if the guilt of the man.
ager of the German plantation is prov
en-, Germany will approve of his arrest
and demand his punishment. We will
not defend the behavior of a German
abroad merely because he is Ger
man."
The Cologne Gazette also admits that
DIR. Raffel, the German president OF
the municipal council of Apia, acted
illegally in closing the chief Justices
Office, and says: 1.-The other two pow.
ers, we hope, will also admit the illegal
acts of their representatives"
The Lokal Anzeiger expresses the
opinion that the affair shows the need
of prompt action by the commission.
A number of leading papers, like the
Deutsche Zeitung, Schlesische Zeitung
and Hanover Courier, point out the ne
cessity of a larger navy and urge the
Fastening of the present increase in iti
strength and the adoption of an addi
tional bill for the construction of Other
vessels.

subject of Samoa is signed by major

servatives and national liberals, ant

his expedition to Manila, by order Of

their former owners in Manila. Gen.,
Lawton said in an interview:
"With the force have there is mo-
doubt I could go through the whole
island, but if government is to be
established it will be necessary to gar
rison all the towns. It would take
100, 600 men to pacify the islands. re-
gret the necessity of abandoning the
captured territory"
