WILD BEASTS IN BATTLE.
Two Painters and a Sea Lion In a
Fight to the Death.

Two Painters and a Sea Lion I'm @
Fight to the Death.
Among all fights of wild beasts per-
haps the most terrible are those in
which the combatants belong to differ
ent elements. The struggle then seems
peculiarly wanton and unnatural. Not
long ago two men on Il small island off
the Californian coast declare that they
witnessed such a battle. The men
were amusing themselves watching
the antics of Il number of sea lions on
a reef when all at once the creatures
began to below in alarm and dived
into the water. One huge fellow alone
stood his ground and moved his head
slowly, as if watching.
A moment later the men saw creep
ing from the shadow of rock two
large panthers, which had evidently
swum over from the mainland in
search of prey.
simultaneously the panthers leaped
upon their enemy and a terrible COM
bat ensued. For nearly 80 minutes it
went on, till the reef was skirted with
crimson foam.
Twice the lion struck a panther
squarely with his ripper and knocked
him dozen feet away. But the great
eats kept to their work, and finally one
Of them buried his teeth in flipper Of
the sea lion, and tore it off with a sim
gle savage tug.
Believing hoarsely with pain and an
ger, the wounded bull caught the
1anther's throat between it's jaws anu
dragged him into the water, but the
Dig brute was weak from loss of blood
The panther escaped, and, with it's
nate, swan off for the mainland
lcross the narrow channel, while the
TEA lion struggled out toward the ocean

The men went down to examine the

ReIished the Punishment.

An old Scotsman, Andrew Leslie by
name, always rode on a donkey to his
work and tethered him while he la
bored on the road or wherever he might
be. 1t was suggested to him by a
neighboring landowner that he was
suspected of putting the animal to feed
in the fields at other peoples expense.
''Eh, laird, could never be tempted
to do that, for my cuddy Wilma eat
onything but nettles and thistles.''
On a subsequent occasion, however,
the laird, while riding along the road,
saw Andrew at work, his faithful beast
up to the knees in one Of the laird s
clover fields feeding luxuriously.
"Hello. Andrewv' exclaimed the
laird. II thought your cuddy would
eat nothing but nettles and thistles"
"Aye, aye" was the response, "but
the brute misbehaved the day. He
nearly kicked me over his head; so I
put him in there lust to punish him."

The tameness of some of the ocean

and cleans them on the beach, and this
is an open invitation for the gufls.
which approach within a few feet Of
the fisherman and fight for the rejec-
tamenta of the catch. Beautiful birds
they are, with harsh and discordant
tones. At night they roost on the
wharf and boats and are extremely
tame-in fact, so tame are some of the
diving birds here that they at times
interfere with the fisherman, this be-
ing especially true Of the looms. They
float gracefully upon the water, occa-
sionally thrusting long, snakelike
head beneath it to note the location of
the food supply, then disappear, to be
seen again darting here and there,
now rushing into school of sardines,
swapping up the small fry or turning
from it to course along the sandy bot
tom, 80 feet or SO below.
