PoRcUPINEs AT WAR.
Another Remarkable Story From Co.
lumbia Gardens Menagerie.

There was a lively time at the m%enagerie
pocupine recently secured by Manager
Wharton was turned into the cage that
original 'Colunbi1 Earden p%orcupine:
The new arrival ambled around the cage,
taking in the sights while the old-timer
eyed him with suspicion. Finally his Curl
osity was aroused and he ambled over to
Informed ~porcupipe. 1t would seem, ought
to understand the danger of such a pro-
ceedings. but the old-timer didn't, and just
as he was passing q few remarks he re-
ceived a wheta ttaH full of barbed quilts.
They stuck in his hose, his eyes and his
cheeks, the newcomer having adroitly
slapped him with his tail. Ingratitude,
came the old chARkSand Manager Wharton
a child He was taken from the cage, the
quilts extracted and then put back. He
signaliZed his return by a declaration Of
war and then started after the newcomer,
who ingloriously fled, taking refuge at the
top OF the tree stump. 'The old-timer ac-
tually held the fresh newcomer a prisoner
In that position until this morning.
The tail is the real business end of a
%porcupine being armed with his choicest
selection of barbed darts. This implement
the old-timer placed in position at the foot
of the three, so that the newcomer could
not possibly descend without getting full
of quilts. Then~het went to sleep. Occa-
sionally he would wake up, wink at the
newcomer, who was by this time suing
for mercy, anqgtheaedoze off again. These
positions were 10 maintained until today,
when the oldAtiefo allowed his prisoner to
come down. Theyftook dinner together and
