place of Foreign Secretary himself,

years made of unusual responsibility.

through the controversy with the
United States over the Venezuelan
boundary, the complications in Argen-
tina, the quarrels Of Turkey, Greece
and Crete. the troubles with the Beers

of current history. In February, 1901,
Lord Salisbury gave up the Foreign
Portfolio to Lord Lansdowne. retain
ing only the premiership, in which he
was succeeded in July, 1902, by Mr..
Balfour.
Lord Salisbury was interested prac-
tically in chemistry and electricity, and
applied 1t himself to his estate, Hatfield
House, and elsewhere. He had a pri-
vate chemical laboratory, where he
spent much time. Several of his pub
lie addresses showed his lively interest
in science, such as that at the opening
of the electric railroad in Liverpool, in
1893, and at the meeting of the British
Association in oxford, In 1894. over
which he presided.

Pulled a LIONS Tooth.
From the New York Times


Jack, the big African lion at Glen Is
land, had tooth extracted yesterday,
and 1t required the united efforts OF
TOUR strong men to accomplish the task.
len days ago the animal became very
irritable, and close watch was put
upon him to determine the cause of
the trouble. At times, especially after
eating, he would fly into a paroxysm
OF rage, and dash about his cage in an
unaccountable manner.
Finally Head Keeper Frank Healey
discovered the cause of the trouble. The
lion had a jumping toothache. On two
occasions the keeper tried to admins
ter relief to him, but was unsuccess-
ful, and then it was decided that the
tooth had to come out.
Early yesterday morning Jack was
tied to the floor and Mr. Healey put
over the lions head a large peach bas-
ket containing sponges saturated with
chloroform. But the lion demolished
the basket, and the first attempt had
to be abandoned. A second attempt
was made half an hour later. 1t was
successful, the beast being more Sc
curely tied and then rendered uncon-
scious by the anesthetic.
When the massive jaws had been
opened and blocked there was consider
able difficulty in discovering the aching
Tnolar. When it was located the gums
were lanced to admit of the forceps
obtaining d good hold. 1t took hard
pull to extract 1t, but 1T was finally
accomplished. Two hours later Jack
seemed to have fully recovered from
the effects of the operation.

Thomas M. Hicks, 1131 18th Street,

Neglected colds, irregular habits
and overwork brought on serious Kid

seemed inflamed with poison, my storn-
ach became entirely demoralized, a bad
odor emanated from my urine, and 1
realized 1 was a sick man. The doc

of the man:
"Regnier was first heard of in con-
nection with the revolution or 1913,
in which he played doubtful part.
In September, 1870. the Empress Eu-

Bismarck Regnier later went to Metz,
introduced himself to Marshal Bazaine
and urged on Bazaine that the war
should have ended after the battle of
Sedan, and that his army, which was
useless at Metz, ought to maintain
order in the interior. Bazaine there
upon accepted the idea of treating with
the Germans.
"Regnier's object was simply to in
duce Bazaine to capitulation without
raising any difficulties. The surrender
of Metz followed. Regnier's completely

End of Career ms COmmOner.
BY the death. of his father. in April,
1868, Lord Salisbury's career in the
House came to an end. 1t was one
of the great trials of his life. and it
is known that he consulted counsel
as to the possibility of retaining his
seat in the House of Commons But
the law was memorable, and on May
he took a seat on a back bench in
that other place" where in future
years he was destined to exercise al
most unprecedented authority. There
was room, however, even In the House
of Lords for. a new debater. The re-
turn of the Liberals to power in 1868
gave free rein to his caustic criu-
cism.
His personal reputation was already
so great that on the death of Lord
Derby he was elected Chancellor of the
University of Oxford, in 1859; and In
10 anu 1919 ne anu llol u CaiAil o0 al
bitrators, conducted a long investiga-
ton into the affairs of the London,
Chatham and Dover Railway. In the
management of his great estate he
showed himself a proficient business
man. and he also revealed his capacity
as chairman of the Great Eastern
Railway.

Lord Salisbury had some doubt about
the propriety of taking office under a
chief he had so frequently attacked,
but, on the advice of Mr.. Gladstone,
he accepted 1t. A little later he was
to win his spurs in diplomacy. At the
close of the war between Servia and
Turkey in 1876, differences arose be-
tween Turkey and Russia. Lord Sails
