Surgeon Operates ON Two Animals at
New York Zoo.
The New York Tribune of today says:
Two baby honey bears from the Malayan
archipelago were operated on at the New
York Geological Park yesterday afternoon.
They made more fuss about 1t than did the
big Bronx Park alligator whose tumors
were taken out q few days ago. Consid-
erng their diminutive size they were the
most troublesome animal patients ever OPP
Grated upon by. DE-. Frank H Miller of
No. 16 East 42d street, who is the official
surgeon for the park.
The little bears have been residents of
the big Bronx bear pen only two weeks.
They were brought from Borneo on the
British tramp steamer Afridi. The change
able weather has caused them much trou-
BILE, and the larger of the pair developed
q growth over the pupils of his eyes which
threatened to blind him. Besides. the
claws of both had grown SO long that they
had turned into the flesh of their paws, SO

the net while still at his bread and milk
dinner. He had no warning of his cap
ture, but started to make things interest
ing at once. Though he is only foot and
a half long, he weighs nearly fifty pounds,
and showed wonderful strength in his legs
and jaws. He tore at the cords and nearly
bit his way to liberty before the keeper
could get him under control. Then he
quickly transferred his hold from the cords
of the net to Haey's thumb, and human
cries of pain were mingled with the terri

tried to shift his hold from the keepers
thumb to his hand, but instead got
mouthful of cotton saturated with chloro-
form. which soon quietcd him.
While the operation was going on one OF
the clumsy white cubs which share the
pen with the honey bears speaked off with

about to put himself into never-ending

Effect of Years of Oppression.

Never for century at least, did the
native bondman receive any more thought
or consideration from his -taskmasters
than was essential to continue his effect
iveness as a working machine When slav-
cry was finally abolished, the former slave
was changed only in his legal relation to
his master, change which he could hard
ly grasp, and which he accepted without
enthusiasm; and 1t required the full three
years of the contract relation called for
by the act of emancipation to habituate
him to the new status and what 1t in
volved. Gradual as was the separation Of
master and slave, and popular as was the
abolition of slavery, the changes resultant
were in large measure responsible for the
low state of peon labor today. Under the
system and conditions which have very
generally prevailed throughout the island
since the emancipation, there have been
practically no means whereby the freed
man or his white fellow-toiler could

Lacking any incentive to labor beyond OBJ
tanning the barest necessaries of existence
the peon has had little or no ambition to
better himself or lis surroundings. few
have struggled up to something better than
they had and were, but they have been too
few and their success has been too excep-
tional to breed much encouragement The
mass has been cOatent to live and die as
their fathers did. The chief bar to such
effort has been the comparative ease with
which the actual necessaries of life can
be obtained. and the consequent absence
of either means or ambition for better
things. No vision of a decent cottage and
garden of his own has gladdened the hopes
or nerved the purpose of the average peon.'

with him
 T didn't know anything about the row, but 1t doesn't seem natural to give a man away, so I lied and the crowd went on down street. Then I picked counter.
 They had used him pretty hard and he was scared half to death. He in- sisted that he knew Mir. A. well and could get help from him if he were there. l suppose the scamp deserved lynching, but l was always a fool. So, finally. l hitched up my horse and bug gy, wrapped the man up in some dry clothes, and drove him across country to town on the other road, where he had friends who took him in.
 He cut the country after that and I never heard of him until almost two years later when I got a note warning me that I had better draw out all the monsy l had in little bank there in town. l didn't know what to think but I drew out the money just for luck: and I'm blamed if the cashier didn't abscond the next day with every dollar the bank held.
 "Some years ago came to New York to live. The first person l met in the Fifth Avenue hotel was my old Da- kota friend, minus the tar and feathers and plus checked suit and plug hat. He knew me like a shot.
 You got your money out of the bank all right?' he said.
 Did you send me that nate?'
 Sure thing. I was in the deal. but l didn't like to see you hit. lowed you a good turn. Don't believe it's all paid off yet
 He never has anything to say to me but he always looks glad to see me. suppose he's q flash crook, but I've an idsa that if I needed a little money l coula bo-r-w II from him more easily than from any of my Wall street friends"

HIS FEATHERED FRIEND.
Queer Acquaintance With Crook Made by a New Yorker in Dakota.

The New York man bowed to an inn mense red-faced man who was just leaving the bar. The red face beamed until it outshone the huge diamond stuck in the scarlet cravat. and the silk hat came off with a sweep.
 Who's your fat friend?' asked the Boston man who had been invited to diink at the New York mans expense.
 He calls himself Wilson. now. Eve an idea he opens the directory and chooses a new name whenever it is ad- visable. l knew him twenty-five years ago in little Dakota town, and he was doing business under the name of Johnson then-Bll Johnson, grain buyer and tin-horn gambler.
 'I was a young fellow and new to the west but was trying to hold down a lumber yard for a Chicago firm, One night was in the office late wrestling with trial balance when the back door opened and in rushed the queerest looking object I'd ever seen. It looked like a featherbed on a spree and cut loose from its cover. Naturally l jumped up and grabbed tine thing near est my hand, which was the big ink well, but just then voice came out through the feathers:
 For Gods sake, man. don't make the matter worse, hide me somewhere. I'm a friend of MT. As.
 Now, Mir. A. was my boss and didn't know much about his friends, Out If this was a specimen of them didn't like his tastes. Just then there was noise outside and the featherbed plunged under the counter and in the dark little back office. The door opened and a man stuck his head in. There were other men behind him.
