YOUNG AuLlGATORS.
They Feed but Once n Month and
Then Prefer Live Food.


Then Prefer Live Food.
"The thing of 1t being difficult to in
duce an alligator in captivity to eat is
n mistaken idea" said man who
owns young alligator and knows all
about them. The question is how.
First of all, an alligator feeds but once
Il month and then prefers to eat any
thing that suggests life-anything that
moves. For this reason angleworms,
besides being good food for it, prove at
tractive to the eye of Il small gator
and later disappears with the same rel
ish It would We're the alligator in the
streams of its native regions. Again,
small portion of raw beef makes excel
lent food for it, and the alligator never
refuses to eat of piece that is tied to
string and slowly drawn along in
front Of him, in this way giving sug-
gestion of life to the food Another
thing very important to know in the
care of an alligator is TO exactly under
stand how to make it comfortable. The
best and simplest plan is TO secure Il
box, any ordinary wooden box, and fill
the bottom with sand, which is then
covered with moss. Also have placed
inside of the box, which must be kept
in the sun ms much as possible, n flow
erpot saucer filled with water. This
must he changed frequently. All of
which makes the alligator very com
Portable, for in case it should become
tired of the water there are the moss
and sand for it to get out upon. So with
properly arranged home or box and a
little care as to its diet there is no rea-
son why the little alligator tourists so
frequently delight In sending their
friends from Florida should not thrive
in captivity. Washington Post.

1t is related of the late Shirley
Brooks that he had at one time very
favorite pig who, alas, went the way Of
all pigs and was converted into bacon.
Brooks sent some of the delicaey TO a
friend, with note as follows:
His end was peace, and l send you
a piece of his end"
The joke was related to Scotch
man, who laughed very heartily and
shortly afterward having occasion TO
kill pig of his own sent some to a rel
alive, with the remark, His end was
peace, and l send you piece of the
pig" And he wondered why nobody
saw the joke.-London King.

Lynch LAW.

1t May Have Taken Its Name From a
M1yOr of Galway.
About the year 1900 one James Fitz-
stephens Lynch was mayor Of the town
of Galway, In Ireland He had sent his
son on trading expedition to Spain
with good cargo and large sum OF
monpy. The young man returned with
Il ship load of valuable commodities,
which he reported as having been pur-
chased with the money and with the
proceeds of the outgoing cargo. After
some time n Spaniard came along, de
mandiag payment from the mayor for
The goods he alleged had been bought
on credit by his son. The mayor de
clined payment, as his son avcrred lie
had paid in cash for the goods Unfor-
tnnateIy for the latter, sailor who
had been one of the crew on examina-
ton by Mayor Lynch declared TINT his
unworthy son had spent In reckless
debauchcry not only the money intrust-
ed 10 him, but the proceeds of the
cargo as we'll; that he had then bought
goods from large firm on credit. and
that when one of the partners of the
firm came down to the ship before sail
ing to receive the money young Lynch
murdered the man and had him thrown

his father.
The young man was Immediately ar
rested and brought before his father,
who, Notwithstanding the fearful Ell
treaties of his wife and daughters, sen
fenced him To death. He took him up
stairs In his warehouse adjusted
rope around his neck, having first Sc
cured il inside, and then pushed the
young man out of the window, where
his dying struggles were witnessed by
the inhabitants of the town of Galway
lii the town records this entry Is yet
to be seen.
James Lynch, mayor of Galway
hanged his own son out Of the window
for defrauding and killing strangers,
without martial or common law, TO
show good example to posterity."
II may be from that incident that
lynch law took its name. 1t Is not pc
culiar American institution, as Is com
monty supposed, but has been praeticed
in other countries. The English had
walled town in Devonshirc of the name
of Iydford. which became noted for
the summary punishments inflicted on
notorious offenders. They became pro
