CROWD Threatened TO

and several times the magI"was gotten
away from the officers. He Eas lifted
bodily above the heads of the people
ana it seemed as if the men struggling
for him were trying to
TEAR HIM TO PIECES.
The mounted soldiers aided the po-
lice and eventually the object of the
crowds vengeance was landed behind
the bars.
Il was with difficulty that the people
were kept back from the building. When
the fellow was asked his name, he
gave it as Carmine Diviata, but a pay
envelope on his person bore the name
Of F.. Mermell. The police learned that
h. was an Italian who had been in this
country but little over year. and
that he was an employe of the Royal
Brick works of this city. He does not
speak English to any extent, and when
a reporter interviewed him in Jail he
made the same apparently
OFFENSIVE SHRUG
every time he spoke. He did not even
krQw the name of Roosevelt and had no
intention of giving offense. He eX-
plained this to those who could under
stand Italian. The officers placed him
in Jail for safekeeping and after the eS-
element died out released him.
No one that is conversant with the
facts thinks that he made any offensive
rcn. arks, and had he been killed great
crime against an innocent man would
have been committed.
The manifestation showed the tenn
per of the crowd, and proved that the
assertion that If the assassin of Pres
ident Mckinley were in the city no
jail walls would save him from the
vengeance of an injured populace.

and the men then sat about examining
their catch. The large specimen was a
little over four feet long and was ex-
trenaely heavy of build. Its mouth was
big enough to take in a small dog Its
fms, which were attached to the body

membraneous. The tail was spine-like
and terminated in what resembled the

seemed to be built for rather sluggish
movement, but to be formidably equipped,
otherwise, for a predatory career
The little ones were about a foot long,
and the fact that they were folded un-

some to indicate that the creature is a
mammal rather than a true fish. The
catch was made in fifty feet of water

Capt. Moody has had long experience as
fisherman, as have several of his crew,
but none of them has ever seen anything
like the monsters. The Captain calls
them "sea-devils," and has them on ex-
hibition at his home in Baltimore, where
they have been viewed by many visitors,
including a number of naturalists. No one
has yet been able to classify the speci-
men. The fishermen who have seen It be-

At this Old Mother Hubbard threw up
her hands, as IL she expected lightning to
strike the boy at once, but the King only
laughed and said:
We'll, now suppose you introduce me to
these interesting people. know some by

SO Robin introduced him to every man,
woman and animal in the party, winding
up with the Cow that jumped over the
moon. The King had pleasant word for
each one, and he asked the COW just how
she went to the moon and back, and she
replied quick as wink, by the mickey

During the Introduction Robin had kept
his eyes on the King, and when he had
finished he seemed TO come to the conclu-
sion that kings weren't half bad, so he
said: Say, If you want I'll say, oh.
King, live forever! whenever l speak to

King Edward sighed a little sigh.
Robin, believe I'd have the time of

"It would suit me down to the ground

the King. II almost wish now that

you'd feel easier IL there wasn't a crowd"
This play of Jack and the Bean Stalk
was made possible by the help of Gin
derefla's godmother, and although there
was no one officially present but King
Edward, many of his suite saw it from
the roof of the palace and farmers in
the fields and villagers at their doors
were startled by the strange appearances
in the sky. For most of the action took
place in the clouds after the bean stalk
had grown to its full hight.
First Jack, who was English born, Gin

came forward and made low bow to the
King, who removed his derby courteous

One morning among the letters that the

on it, ard it proved to be what is called
a command" from the King of Robin
to come with his people and give a little
show.
Well, Robin was not quite old enough
to like being commanded by any one ex-
cept his father, so he dictated boyish
letter which Jack wrote out in his best
hand-which happened to be his left. 1t
ran as follows:

Edward VII:

1t is said that King Edward laughed
heartily at the independent little letter
and was more than ever anxious to meet
Robin and the rest.

Robin Taylor will not soon forget the
visit to King Edward VII, which was
made while he and the Animated Wax
works were in London.
The mail that came to Robin every
morning was tremendous. Children all
over the British Isles would write to him
asking him If he really had Puss in Boots
and Cinderella and all the rest with him,
and after while he engaged Jack the
Giant Killer who was a very good pen
man, to answer all the letters. The fact
is Robin was not much of a writer, and
his signature was about all he cared to
bother with. He always said that when
he grew up he was going to have a steam
typewriter and all he'd do would be to
shovel in coal and let the old thing do
