AoUARIUM'S HARBOR SEALS.
Ever Playful and by No Means Lacking
in Intelligence.

Lately the ever-playful harbor seals
at the aquarium have been fed partly
on cut-up strips of Goldfish. Their food
is varied from time to time, according
to the market supply of fresh fish, and
according to the requirements of the
seals themselves. Just now they are
getting some smelts, which the seals
don't like as well as they do Goldfish.
The food they don't like is always fed
to them first, else they might not eat
that at all. but they let 1t alone as
long as they can without running the
risk of getting nothing. Thus the
other day when the smelts were dealt
out to them the seals dawdled over
them, and. so to speak. all but turned
up their noses. as though they were not
hungry. 1t seemed as though 1t might
be necessary to let them have their
way and give them other food entirely.
But presently, when they had discover
ed, and had realized. as indeed. they
quickly did. that 1t was smelts first or
nothing. they nipped them up prompt
ly as fast as they were tossed in. They
might prefer something else. but there
was no doubt about their appetites
And the hnrbor seals intelligence, as
we'll as their playfulness, is something
remarkable 1t is n common thing for
two OF the seals to seize the same pier,

apart. or one pulls the whole away
from the other. The other day wher
they were eating smelts. the smallest

MOB STRINGS UP TWO NEGRO MEN

Who Had Murdered Man
the Same Day.

Indianapolis. Dec. IA special to
The Sentinel from Rockport, Ind, says:
Two negroes. Jim Henderson and Bud
Rowlands, who waylaid, murdered ana
robbed Hollie Simons. Il white barber.
early yesterday morning, were lynched
in the Jail yard by mob of 1000
frenZied citizens last night. The ne
groes were arrested early, and although
Rowlands' clothing had blood stains
on it the men claimed that they We're
innocent of the crime. In the mean
time Sheriff Clemens. of Union coun-
ty. Ky, arrived with a trained blood
hound in response to a Geographic
summons. When the dog was placed
on the trail he followed it until he
reached the house where Rowlands
lived, six blocks from the scene of the
murder and went baying to the bed
the negro had occupied.
Enough Tor the "Infuriated" Citizens.
This was enough for the excited
citizens. Within n few minutes Il mob
of 1000 bowling, frantic rioters with
Sledge hammers, ropes and guns, We're
running to the Jail. Sheriff Anderson
and his two deputies made stand and
attempted to protect the prisoners The
officers were seized by tie leaders OF
the mob. who disarmed them. The
sheriff was then locked in a room
and placed under guard, but he stoutly
refused to give up the keys or tell
where the prisoners were hidden Fail
ing to get the keys the mob made Il
violent but unsuccessful attempt to
break in the jail door. BY this time
the would-be lynchers We're in per
feet frenzy, and securing a telegraph
pole they used it as a hattering ram
and caved in the side wall of the Jail.
Mob Secures Its First Victim.
The door of Rowlands' cell was then
quickly broken in with sledges and he
was dragged from the Jail to the east
side of the court yard, where moose
was placed about his neck. He was
given time To make statement in
which he implicated Jim Henderson
and another negro Rowlands then
begged pteously for mercy, but the
mob swiftly swung the confessed
murderer to n tree and riddled his body
with bullets.

AT THE FAIR.
One of Those Breathless Moments
Before Judgment Is Given.


Before Judgment Is Given.
There on the platform stood the roll
of new rag carpet, with the committee
inspecting, and there, not 20 feet away.
stood a farmer, his wife and four chill
dren. With her own hands the wife
had cut, sewed, dyed and woven. She
had been encouraged by husband and
friends to enter that carpet for the
prize, and the hour for the fatal de-
cision had come. Tie faces of the
committee were impressive and unread
able. There were blue and red and
green and purple in that carpet, but
those colors did not seem to appeal.
They did not look like men who knew
what an AL, Ak, copper riveted rag car
pet good enough for a senator's best
parlor should be composed CT.
Don't you be skeart, Mirandy." said
the husband as he patted her on the
shoulder in an encouraging way.
I'm tryin to be brave" she replied,
''but, OH Joel, you know how hard l
worked on that carpet. If | don't git
the prize, believe l shall fall dead"
But it must git the prize, mother"
said the children in chorus I'VE are
taught that goodness is always reward
ed, and who is gooder than you?"
The committee seized the roll and
slammed it down, and Joel and Miriam
dy turned pale.
The committee opened the roll to look
for places where hogs might squeeze
through. and the children grew weak
in the knees.
The carpet was measured, walked on,
kicked about, rolled up. and six per-
sons heard the beating Of their own
hearts.
81 think I'll die" whispered the wife
as she sat down on nail keg covered
with a crazy quilt.
Not yit," replied the husband. Now
they are consultin together. Now they
seem to have come to Il decision. Now
they are handlin the diplomas. Now
