NEW Y0RK'S BLIND LIONESS.
She Is Very Fond of Her Keeper and
Knows Him from All
Others.

The Central park menagerie at New
York has great African lioness that
is totally blind One would scarcely
guess it from her appearance, how
ever She walks up and down her
cage just the same as the other men,
bers of the cat family and she knows
just as well as the animals that have
their sight when one of the keepers
comes near, says an exchange of that
city.
Alice is more fond of Keeper Shan
non than any of the others; he feeds
her. When Shannon approaches she
puts her nose close to the bars and
oscillates her whiskers knowingly, as
much as to say: 81 know you, Mike
Shannon, just as well as if l could
see you. Where is my meat?"
Shannon says that Alice is about
rs years old and has been blind for
five years. Since she lost her sight
her senses of hearing and smell have
become keener than ever. When Billy
Snyder comes from the elephant
house to the lion house direct Alice
becomes restless and ugly She
growls and snarls and lifts her nose
in the air as if she scented danger.
Snyder says that the lioness can
smell the elephant, and it reminds her
of the days when she was a rowing
youngster in the jungles. He believes
that Alice must have had a muss Of
some kind with an elephant.

DID PERSEUS EXPLODED
Conjecture as to the New Light That
Has Appeared in the
Heavens.

We wonder if any person in the
world has been frightened by the ap-
pearance and disappearance of the
new star in Perseus, of which astron-
omers have recently made so much.
Somebody ought to have been, says
the London Spectator. The new light
probably appeared because a sun had
exploded, or because two suns had col
lided, evolving temporarily an almost
inconceivable quantity of flame. If
distant sun could explode, so could our
sun, and if two suns could collide, some
sun of which we know nothing may
be rushing at a pace which the mind
does not grasp, though the brain can
calculate it, toward our own. There
should be something alarming to the
imaginative in that idea, but, so far
as we know, nobody has been alarmed.
The catastrophe in Perseus, whatever
it's cause, must have occurred so years
ago to give the light time to get here,
and catastrophes so incOnceivably dis
tant are outside the range even OF the
imagination. We read of them as we
read of quintillions, grasping the
words, but not the thoughts they are
intended to convey. The mass of man
kind, too, are protected against as
Economical alarms, not only by their
ignorance, but by two very steady be-
liefs. One, which is not quite reason
able, is that God, though He allows
railway collisions, will never allow
anything so big as an astronomical
catastrophe-as if there could be
greatness or littleness in the eyes of
the Infnite-and the other, which is
reasonable enough, is that if an astro-
nomical catastrophe affected sentient
beings at all, it must destroy all of
them within it's range utterly and at
once.

THE GOVERNORSHlP RACE.

Now that Mr.. Echols has dropped out
Of the race for the Democratic nominate
for Gov ernor, MIR. Montague has practical.
IL clinched the nomination. Fifteen Of
the delegates who were for Echos went to
Montague as soon as the announcement of
Mr.. Ecbols' withdrawal was made public.
This leaves Montague but 19l votes short
of the number necessary to give hlm the
nomination, and there is but little doubt
but that be will secure the remaining nee.
es-ary few by the end of the week.
1t is now thought that Mr.. Montague
will be able to dictate as to who his run.
ming mates shall be, and if this suppositon
be correct, it is more than likely that VIII
lard, of Fairfax, will be nominated for
Lieutenant Governor, and Anderson, Of
Rockbridge, for Attorney General.
What the friends Of the other aspirants
for the two last named places on ticket will
do should Mr.. Montague try to dictate as
to who the candidates shall be, is a matter
Of much speculation, and no little uneasl.
ness is felt in the Democratic camp over
the situation. Some 20 SO far as TO say
that such a move on the part of Mr.. Mon
tague would cause him to be defeated for
nomination for the Goyernorship; but
there are many who do not think this
way, but are of the opinion that it will
make him still stronger before the conyen
lion when it assemblies in August.

The Country Store" committee is
doing noble work and thai feature
promises to he a big affair. Through
the kindness Of the various merchants
of the city they sent off last evening
100 circular letters to northern houses
requesting donations for the store.
Many northern houses and manufac-
turers will no doubt take this oppor-
tunity of advertising themselves and
their business.
The Elks have done the clever thing
in giving away to the Daughters OF
the Confederacy the privilege of the
refreshment booth of the German viii

the Fatherland, and the ladies will sell
coffee, tea, chockolate, cool drinks,
lunches, ice cream, cake, etc, in order
to add to their fund for the enteretain-
ment of the North Carolina division of
the United Daughters of the Confed-
eracy which is to hold it's annual con-
vention in Wilmington in November
The transportation committee report

go on sale sale October 14th and will be
sold daily up to and including October
