Tn an Express Car and Devoursd
 Cargo Of Poultry.
 Cumberland 1Md.) Special to New York Journal Terrifying groYIs is- sued from an express car Of 2 train that passed through here the other day bound for Philadelphia. A lion was in possession, freed from his cage, slaugh- terins chickens by wholesale Con- duetor and brakemen kept as far away as their duties would permit. HaIf dozen Hagenbeek,s men were gathered in the eaboose. gloonIIy wondering what they could do to restore the mon- ster to confinement. When the train stopped here for water they were at their wits end. Many of the inhabit- ants focked to the station to listen, at 8 safe distance, to the pandemoniHm that ragged in the express car. There was continuous futte-ing and screamfng-the hysterieaI distress of e arnyard-punetuate by one crash after another as the big brute destroyed the poultry crates around him, amid vibrant roars that sent the crowd staggering backward. No one dared 10 enter the car. The animal trainers h the eaboose were only too thankful to be divided from their charge by stout wooden walls Accustomed as they were to subdue wild beasts. they real- ized that this lion, which had giutted himself on living prey. would rend any man who approached him. Through 8 grating iR the side Of the car they could see him from time to time. his muzzIe stained with blood and bristl- ing with feathers. All about him lay the mutiIatad bodies of birds he had seized without devouriHg them. The survivors flew hfther and thither fran tieaIly. sometimes hitting the roof and dropping back again to the floor. None of those responsible for the lions safe keeping could imagine how he had broken from his cage, but It was easy to conceive he had been maddened by the heat and darkness and joItIng Of railway travelling, aggravated as t must have been by the sound and smell Of life in the crates all about him. IL was agreed that the only thing to do was to continue the journey to PhiIa- delphia with all possible speed, and there take steps at leisure to either capture or kill tke bIoodthirsty animal And So the train rumbled on with the lion in possession.

Among the sand and pebbles Eou vii see a number Of small bundles Of sticks and little cylinders ef tiny Efoaes, moving about as though en- doWes with life If yoa take them out. however they are apparently dead and entirely devoid of motive power But break them open. and you wslH find each one to be a little tube lined with soft and shining silk, and containing vhItish caterpillar-lIkz larva. This then, Is the solution Of the puzzIe-when the grub wishes to move about, he projects the forward part of his body from the tube and crawls around, dragging his house behind him. But the moment he fa disturbed CT frightened. he draws back into his safe retreat. wherein he remains hidden as long as danger threatens. You will find the little tubes of various kinds, shapes and sizes. Some are cylindrical. made of sticks placed IengthBise, while others are like log houses of straw, the pieces being fastened crosswise. These min- iature log cabins are often decorated with tiny snaiI-sheII fasteEed to the walls, and moreover. the shells are not always empty. Quite often you may find living snails securely attached, and thus compelled to move about at the will of their landlord Other tubes are built entirely of bits of moss and leaves. The eommonest forms are those composed Of little pebbles or grains Of sand. These are usually very regular and smooth cylinders. in which the grains are all of nearly equal size, but among them you may frequently find some with several larger stones fastened to either side in a very eurI- ous manner. By far the prettiest houses of all are shaped like little spiral shells and are eemposs sd entirely Of almost mtereseopIeaI stones.- Popular Science.

The senior class OF the Yale law school Governor Shaws name

An interesting debate in small theatre that which

Yale University. The question was on the Republican
candidate for Vce-Presiden and after consideration of
three individuals, the Hon. John D. Long of Massachu-
setts the Hon Theo. Roosevelt of New York and the
Hon. Leslie M. Shaw of Iowa. the choice fell by large
majority on Governor Shaw. A student from Dubuque
is said to have been active in advocating the availability
of his fellow statesman but western among the
voters said to have been few.
Governor Shaw may be particularly proud of having
