ABOUT MAN-EATING LIONS.
Tricks Of the Savage Beasts IL
Their Native Jungles.

when lions become man-eaters these
inert and treacherous brutes take no
unnecessary trouble to catch men, ana
while human beings are plentiful none
of them undertake perilous enterprises
or proceed on any haphazzard expedl-
tions'' saws writer in outing.
"They know what to do and where TO
go that prey may be procured with the
least amount of risk or eXertion Such
a lion is we'll aware of who tills this
cornfield or that mealie patch. He has
informed himself of how many men ac-
company the village herds, where the
outlying camps are situated and how
they are guarded. There is no route by
which travellers proceed or traffic is
carried on that such animals have not
studied with reference to the facilities
for attack they afford and their own
bodily powers. If otherwise good
strategic positions present natural diff
ficulties the lion not only considers how
these can be overcome, but perhaps
practices his part beforehand. At all
events, he has been watched while en-
gagged in exercises that can only be
explained in this way.
so puny a crature as man is when
unprovided with effective implements
for offense stands little chance against
such a foe-an assailant having forty
times his strength backed by marvel
Gus activity and an intense passion for
carnage. Under these circumstances
savages can only shut themselves up
or assault their enemy in large masses.
On the other hand, those precautions
taken by a murderous lion might not
seem to comport with that bold and
often reckless temper attributed to this
Species But such discrepancy has no
real existence; it only appears when
Judgment is made without taking all
the facts into consideration. This ami
mails intelligence, developed in man
eaters to it's highest point, together
with an organic stealthiness Of nature
and proclivity toward unexpected at
tacks and stratagems, fully accounts
for everything a lion does in the way of
guarding against failure"

models and sent them to North Caro-
lima, and then after some delay they
were informed by letter that the job
had been given to Mr.. Endicott of
Washington. The sculptors are natur-
ally indignant at this treatment and
have prepared a vigorous protest, which
not only sets forth their own damages
in the loss of time, money and labor.
but points out the wrong that is done
to the country. One of these Sculptors
declares publicly that men of his pro-
fession suffer from political favoritism.
and whenever they do the country suf-
fers from crimes in bronze. We have
spent an enormous amount of money
to perpetuate hideousness and celebrate
incompetency because some politician
has a pull and some third rate stone
carver is his friend.

Miss Grant, the sculptor, whose bust
of Gladstone is attracting so much at
tention in England. is a niece of Sir
Francis Grant, former President OF the
Royal Academy. Her mother was a
daughter of the Lord Elgin who saved
the Parthenon marbles from vandalism
at the hands of the Turks and brought
them to England, where they are
known by his title.

Frederic Remington, whose accurate
pictures of the West and of Western
life are known the world round,
has been spending several weeks in
Yellowstone Park sketching the glori-
Gus scenery there. While in the ma
t1onal pleasure ground he thought
ne would paint in colors a picture
OF the Grand Canyon of the Yellow
stone. So he told his man to pick up
his paints and brushes and drive over
to Artists Pass, where Thomas Moran,
eighteen years ago, painted the cele-
brated picture now hanging in the
National Capitol. After the easel had
peen adjusted, the canvas stretched,
and all the tools and colors made ready,
Remington sat down and for half
hour or more silently gazed at that
awful abyss of transitional splendors.
Then he shook his head and slowly
arose, reluctantly abandoning the task
of reproducing those miles upon miles
of delicately variegated coloring The
surprised helper exclaimed: why,
aren't you going to paint a picture,
Mr. Remington?''
No. replied the big artist, "a mans
a - fool who would try to paint that
picture. 1t would look like an exploded
paint shop.
Those who have viewed the resplend-
ent beauty of the Grand Canyon of the
Yellowstone will not be surprised at
this story; rather they will think more
of the renowned artist for his candid
admission. It is worthy of note that
more Americans are each season COM

playground set aside by Congress for
their enjoyment.
Max Seeliger, one of the instructors
in mural paintings in the Imperial Ber-
lin Art School, is the artist who has
been selected to execute the new copy
of Raphaeps School of Athens" which
the University of Virginia owes to the
generosity of a liberal but as yet un-
named friends. Mr.. Seeliger was Sc
lected as the united choice of Pro-
fessor Ludwig Karans, DR.. Ewald, the
great authority on mural decoration,
and Professor Andrews, Director of the
Corcoran Art Gallery in Washington.
The whole of the summer will be de-
voted to the execution of the work,
which will be carried on in Rome from
special copies made directly from the
original in the Vatican.
A Mr.. Osiris, who has offered prize
of 100000 francs for the most meritor-
ious work to be shown at the Paris
Exposition of 1900 has arranged that
the award shall be made by the syndi-
cate of the press of Paris. The sue
cessful work may be judged from either
an artistic, industrial, or humanitarian
standpoint.

HAD A FIT IN THE STREET.
Mrs, Sadie Marvin of Jersey City
Cared for by New York Police.

Mrs. Sadie A. Marvin, a widow, resid-
ing at No. 1853 Seventh street, was picked
UP by the New York police, at the foot
of the Sixth Avenue Elevated Railroad
steps, at the corner of Fourteenth street,
in an insensible condition. Mrs. Marvin
was assisted to the waiting room, where
she was ATTENDED by several women. She
soon revived. Patrolman Merriman de-
cided to remove her to the West Thir-
tieth street police station, as she was
unable to care for herself. When the
station was reached she became hysteri-
cal.
Mrs. Marvin cried for aromatic spirits
of ammonia and wept bitterly. After she
auieted somewhat she claimed acquaint-
ance with several prominent residents of
this city, including Chief of Police Muir
ply. She pleaded to be allowed to go
home.
Word was conveyed to Mrs. Marvin's
sister, Mrs. Roe, of No. IS Manhasset
place, Brooklyn. who called later and
took her sister home.
When seen this morning at her resi-
dence, Mrs. Marvin said
THE stories told in the New York
papers this morning are absurd. I am
subject. to fits, and was taken with a
spell while out last night. Had the
patrolman given me the ammonia when
I called for it I would have been all
right
Mrs. Marvin felt exceedingly hurt over
the publicity given the matter and asked
that as little be said regarding it as pos

MUST NOT SPIT IN CARS
Mayor Hoos' Letter Causes
Inspector Benjamin
to Act.

The Health Board has decided to- en-
force the ordinance prohibiting persons
from splitting on the floors of trolley cars
and other public conveyances in the city.
Health Inspector Benjamin said he would
make an example of the first person
caught violating the rule. The action OF
the Board is the outcome of Mayor Hoos'
letter complaining of the filthy condition
of the cars.
In reply to the letter sent by the Mayor
Inspector Benjamin reported.
"The ventilation of the cars is ample
and under the control of the conductors
at all times. As to their cleanliness, all
are in fairly good condition except those
of the Turnpike branch, which are
filthy at all times. Steps have been taken
to remedy his evil. i have instructed the
e11cers of my department to look out for
violation CT the health rules, while riding
on the cars"
The Police Board took similar action.
