slx F-rashtened Lions.

An incident at the Porte st. Martin
heater in Paris has become part Of
the annals Of the show business. The
chief feature Of the exhibition was a
'tturn" consisting of the casting of 4
young woRlan securely bound into q
cage Of lions heralded as being the
fercest and must bloodthirsty Of man
eaters.
The woman who had the part Of the
victim was taken i'll, and a substitute
was found in the wife Of one Of the
trainers, herself a trainer Of some ex-
perience, but without any acquaintance
with these particular six lions. AS she
was somewhat nervous she carried Il
small club ready for use should Occa-
sion arise.
Amid the breathless silence Of the
spectators the ringmaster explained
the ferocious nature Of the lions and
the terrible risk of the woman, and
she was thrust in at the cage door.
In the excitement of the occasion the
door was not securely shut. after her.
No sooner was she fairly inside than
the six monarchs of the Jungle, seeing
that a strange person had been forced
upon them, raised a chorus of shudder-
ing terror. bolted for the cage door,
clawed it open and with dragging tails
and cringing TANKS fed out through
q rear entrance and found refuge in a
cellar, whence they were dislodged on
~ after great difficulty.
It was a week before the '%ferocious
man eaters" were sufficiently recover
ed from their terrors to reappear in
public.-McClure's Magazine.

A BALLAD IN 90.

A man with q marvellous mug
Rode out OF Fort Scott ON q nag
He carried jug in a bag
And many and many q swig
Reposed in that corpulent Jug
And cob fitted in as a plug
AS snug as q snag in a bog,
The nag had wigglety jig
Which churned up the Jag in the iue
And along by its side went dog
Which jiggled along in a jog
With narrative shaggy and sag
Which he YEARLY, warily wug.
o. That Jig. and that jog. and that jag
) o! That jog, and that jag, and that
jug.
The man shouted "Whoa"-to the nag
Then took out the jug from the bag
Then took out the plug from the jug
And then from the jug took a jag
A terrible, horrible jag
Which acted as quick as drug.
He shouted "Yip-yip" to the nag
And dug in his heels with a dig
And the nag who would never renig
ofi"iS VII WIN NIIS SpcCu VI Il 6ldS
Then the man with marvellous mug
Began a vociferous brag-
"Whoo-pee-I'm a bird on a crag
I'm thief. and wolf, and a thug
I'm bug-eater hunting a bug

And I have Doodle and swag
That says that my grave don't get

To the front with yelp went the dog
And-shouting "Yip-yip!" to the nag
Pell-mell with jug and the bag
Went the man with the marvellous mug,
And there in the road lay hog
As still as bump on a log
Then down in pile went the nag
And the dog and the hog and the jug
And that was the end Of the hog
And that was the end of the dog
And vain We're his efforts to wag

And timber and limp as rag

BRIGHT IDEAS OF

Logs In Inc River.

Whether the public has any rights
in connection with the streams in the
country, or whether they belong in fee
simple to the lumber companies that
may wish to use them for logging pur-
poses is a question that ought to be de-
cided once for all this spring. 1t
is question of considerable inn
portance too, Kalispell is threatened
with all the Inconvenience and dangers
CT water famine. and the county with
the loss of several expensive bridges
and the cutting off of communication
between the east and west sides of the
valley by the logs that are going down
the rivers. The lumber company takes
the ground that it is under no obliga-
ton whatever to look for the damage it
may cause to bridges or anything elsa
1t practically says: IF you don't want
your bridges knocked to pieces, take
them away" Already the water main
supplying the city has been broken open
several times by the moving of the
structure carrying it over the Saltwater,
and it is practically certain that before
the log drive is over both that AMI
the wagon bridges will be carried out

but to the ordinary person it seems an
outrageous and unreasonable position.
The company has the undoubted right
to use the streams to float it's logs, but
| it should be compelled to use them in
such a way as not to injure others.
Why should the country be compelled
to incur great expense to protect its
bridges against logs any more than
it would be compelled to furnish
extra support for them If some one
| wished to take over them greater
weights than they were intended to
carry? Ordinarily a person is not al
| lowed to obstruct or destroy public

a lumber company should be allowed to
do it by piling its logs at random against
