SOME TRAITS OF ANIMALS.
Nature Has Endowed Them All With
Means of Defense.
From the Chicago Chronicle,

From the Chicago Chronicle.
Nature has given every known animal
some distinctive method of defense, yet few
people in this busy world, with the excep-
ton of those who make study of animal
life, know exactly what they are. In the
herbivorous animals the defense gift as 1t
might be called is more prominent than in
the hesh-eating species, because the latter
are the relentless enemy of the former.
II the circus menagerie, to be exhibited
this week at the Coliseum, are several hun
dred of both species. and devotees of nat
urai history will have the privilege of in
speeding them to their hearts content
The giraffe, one of the most peculiarly
built of the herbivorous animals and one
that is rapidly becoming extinct will prob
ably attract as much attention as any other
animal in the menagerie. He is a native
of Africa, and being thin-skinned is sup
piled by nature with remarkably sharp
hoofs, which he uses with destructive force
when attacked by lions or tigers A giraffe
has been known to virtually tear lion into
shIeds.
The zebra also uses his hoofs but in a
different manner. Instead of striking he
kicks. Zebras when pursued by carnivor-
Gus animals will gallop wildly for a time.
Suddenly they Will stop. form a circle with
their heads toward the center and kick
viciously and in unison at their enemies.
In the formation of the circle the weakest
animals are forced INTO the center and in
consequence are afforded additional protec-
ton.
The greatest kicker of the herbivorous
class is the cassowary. Although he has
but two legs they can vastly do the work
of four when put into active service. The
legs are thickly muscled that casso-
wary can break tigers back at one blow.
The Gland. the largest CT the antelope
family. is furnished with a pair OF spiral
like horns the points OF -h!cA: are sharp
as freshly ground swords. With these
horns the Gland. while running wild in
the country south of the Sahara desert in
Africa. impales his many adversaries OF
the cat tribe on his horns and dashes them
to death on the sun-baked ground.
The Russian white deer is oeSoid OF
horns and depends razor-edge hoofs to
pl otect his family and himself The llama
also uses the hoofs in the event OF an at
tack.
The Danger, or ghorka, known the
wild ass of western India. fights ike the
zebra and protects the young and weak in
the same manner. The yak. from the
highlands of the Thibet. butts and tram
pies his enemies. His coat OF extra long
coarse hair affords him considerable pro-
lection.

N ART OF A
Military MandaFihs Do Not Dia-
play Much A&uteReaa.

A novel method Of testing new
weapons Of warfare Is now In vogue I'm
China. A large cannon Of the latest
type was recently imported from Eu-
rope. and when 1t was landed on the
coast Of Hainan the military man
darins Of the district first inspected 10
closely and then resolved to test il.
They, therefore, procured a boat
which they anchored at some distance
from the land, and then they loaded
the cannon and fred q shot at 1t. To
their surprise, the shot did not hit
the boat, but fell short in the water,
They determined to try again, but did
not want to miss a second time, and
20 they brought the boat to the very
spot where the first shot had fallen
and anchored 1t there.
Then they fad, and. to their un-
bounded Joy, the shot went through
the vessel. Evidently, says a London
paper, IL never occurred to them that
they could have attained the same end
by aiming more carefully and slightly
changing the position Of the cannon,
or, II it did occur to them, they thought
that it was easier to move the boat
than to so aim with the heavy cannon
that they would be absolutely certain
Of not losing q second shot.

December McClure's. The "lady" lie
the teacher in the primary grade of

fearful and wonderful, by her class,
one Of which costs as much &c fifteen
cents. Little Morris Mogilewsky
alone has no pin money to lavish on
teacher, much a he loves her. But
the evening before he saw his father
put a piece Of paper in bis mothers
hands, whereupon che cried q little
and kissed him. This is the gift that
Morris brings to ''teacher" in the
hope that It may be acceptable to 9
"lady." It is the receipt for q
months rent for a room in q Monroe
