MOOSE IN CAPTIVITY.
Not Difficult to Domestieate, but Hare
to Keep Alive.

'sThe reason so few moose are seen
in captivity in the parks and circuses
of the country is not because they are
naturally too wild to be domesticated,
but because they usually do not live
long In captivity" said st. Paul man.
my father was for many years set
tier In northern Minnesota, and at diff
ferent times In his experience he had
three moose on his homestead which
recognized him as their master.
"All the animals were captured when
they were very young, and in each in
stance 1t took them only few days to
become apparently attached to father
and his small farm. For two or three
weeks he would keep them fenced In
and then would allow them to roam
around at will. They would be gone
for two or three hours, or perhaps half
a day at time, but always came back
all right. BY allowing them the run
of the premises this way they met
practically the same conditions as If
they were wild In the forest, and
therefore were always In good health.
but the moment any of them were
shipped to the city a change was no
ticeable.
1.-TWO OF the animals were sold to
city park associations at different
times, and in each instance the moose
finally died. They seemed willing
enough to remain in the parks, but
conditions were not such as they were
used to, and from the first it was to
be seen that they were failing In
health. A moose can stand all sorts

lack of proper food or lack Of some
thing else puts him on the down grade,
and as a rule he passes in his checks

outside.
zone of the animals my father
owned was a handsome bull, and he
was trained to harness. The animal
could pull good sized load and travel
through the woods with a sleigh be-
hind him at very lively clip This
third moose was one day shot by a
hunter near the house. So all three
animals met with an untlmely fate,
which goes to prove, 1 suppose, that
man should not monkey with the plans
of nature. "-Duluth Herald.

METHOD IN HIS soLlcITUDE.
Willie's Deep Interest in Playmase's
 Health Explained.

This story is well in keeping with the spirit of the age, says the New York Tribune. A Bronx man tells it about his little boy. The neighbours young hopeful was very i'll, and Willie and the other youngsters in the block had been asked not to make any noise in the streets The nelghbor's bell rang one day and she opened it to find Willie standing bashfully on her front steps.
 How is he to-day?" he inquired in a shy whisper.
 Hes better, thank you, dear, and what thoughtful child you are to come and ask"
 Willie stood a moment on one foot and then burst forth again, I'm orful sorry Jimmys sick"
 The mother was profoundly touched. She could find no further words to say, but simply kissed him. Made still bolder by the caress, Willie began to back down the steps. repeating at in- teryals his sorrow for his playmate's illness. At the bottom step he halted and looked up. If Jimmy should die," he asked, kin have his drum?"

War In Passenger Rates.

If the conflict keeps up much longer bargain hunt CTS will get chance to go to Flu rope on shopping expeditions at cheap rates The causes or the fight are 9. ]. 4a A The stearage rate
 which brought the trouble to a head, is the direct result of the refusal of one of the continental lines to permit the Russian volunteer fleet to enter the steamship conferences and thus have access to the conference agent and the general business. The so-call- ed conference was established by a movement among the lines for the purpose of settling differences, dis tributing business and maintaining rates. It has now collapsed.

Will Be Exposed to Weather.

Tn the construction of the new State capitol, 10 per cent of all bills paid the contractors has been withheld to insure the proper construction of the building according to the architectur- al provisions. About $650000 has so far been allowed the contractors, and the amount held back, exclusive of the work done since the last meet ing of the commissioners, and which has not been audited, will closely approximate $100,000. If the contrac- tors should undertake to enclose the building, the chief expense would be the installation of the windows, doors and skylights. All this work would of necessity, be required to be done in a substantial manner, so that it would not have to be done over again, and it is estimated that fully $75,OOO would be expended in this work alone. With the other contracts, which they are working on, and future work, which they may secure, it is not believed that Caldwell & Drake would undertake to hamper themselves finan- cially by tieing up nearly $2OO,OOO of their resources for a term of pos sibly two years. This would mean that unless a special session of the legislature was called, the building must remain open and exposed to the weather for nearly two years.

LOOK TO CONGRESS
Striking Tel,egraphers Will Ask Con. gress to Settle Their Grievances
 With Employers.

New York, Aug.-Prospects of a mutually satisfactory settlement of the telegraphers' strike appear to be no more promising now than they were week ago. Officials of the Western Union reiterated the state ment that they will not treat with la bor organizations under any circum- stances. At the same time the strike leaders declared that some of their hopes are based upon arbitration, they have accepted as final the expressions of the company officials, they say, and are prepared to prolong the strike un- til the next session of Congress, if necessary. Then, they declare, an ef- fort will be made to have the whole question taken before the countrys legislative bodies.
 We are going to keep up the strug- gle until the business interests of the country force Congress to act said President Small of the telegraphers union Tuesday. We will be able to hold on until the next session Of Con- gross. I do not believe the telegraph companies can hold out much longer

PUT IT IN GOOD LIGHT.
One Comforting Thought in the Death
 of the Chickens.

A lady who had recently moved to the suburbs was very fond of her first brood of chickens. Going out one af- ternoon she left the household in charge of her eight-year-old boy. Be, fore her return a thunderstorm came up. The youngster forgot the chicks during the storm, and was dismayed after it passed to find that half of them had been drowned Though fearing the wrath to come, he thought best to make clean breast of the calamity, rather than leave it to be discovered.
 Mamma" he said, contritely, when his mother had returned, mamma, six of the chickens are dead.'
 'Dead!" cried his mother. "Six! How did they die?"
 The boy saw his chance.
 T think-I think they died happy" he said-Harper's Weekly.

State Capital Notes
Arkansas Deaf-Mute Institute.

Supt. Arthur G. Mashburn, of the Arkansas Deaf-Mute Institute, located at Little Rock, is making a great effort to get the name and address of the parent or guardian of every deaf child in the State, between the ages of 6 and 21, who has not attended the State school at Little Rock and would greatly appreciate the sending in of such names and addresses by anybody who is inter- ested in afflicted humanity and has such information. This is free school for all the deaf children of the State of sound mind. There are 23 regular literary teachers and g instructors of trades and professions. The buildings and grounds are worth 100000 and 299 pupils attended the school last year. There are physician, an aurist, a dentist and two trained nurses to care for the pupils in case they are sick. These are paid regular salaries just like the teachers. Four women are with the girls to look after them during the time they are not in the school, and one sits up in their bedroom all night to care for them. A man is constantly with the large boys to see that they behave themselves and woman is always with the little boys to care for them and give them mothers love-. The next session of the school will open October 2. Besides teaching them the common school branches they are taught the following trades. To the girls-Dress- making, tailoring, cooking, house. keeping, fancy-needle work, basket weaving, typewriting, bookkeeping and art. To the boys-Printing painting, cabinet-making, turning, car pentry, shoe-making, harness-making. tailoring, paper-hanging, clustering, kalsomining, concreting, art type writing and bookkeeping. Everything is free to the children, except cloth ing and travelling expenses, and even these are free to all whose parents are too poor to pay it themselves. There is a colored department of the school about 300 yards away from the whites in which deaf negro children are taught.

In Event of Extra Session.

In view of the possibility that an extra session of the General Assem- bly may be deemed necessary, it might be interesting to note what the constitution says on the subject: Section 19, Article 6, of the Consti- tuition of 1874, says: "The governor may, by proclamation on extraordl- nary occasions, convene the General Assembly at tse seat of government, or at different place, if that shall have become since their last adjourn ment, dangerous from an enemy or contagious disease; and he shall spe- oify in his proclamation the purpose for which they are convened; and no other business than that set forth therein shall be transacted until the same shall have been disposed of; after which they may, by vote Of two-thirds of all the members elected to both houses, entered upon their journals, remain in session not exceeding fifteen days"

FOR SELFISH ENDS.
The Efforts Being Made by the Ameri.
 can Medical Association.

The Political activity of the Ameri- can Medical Association has become so pronounced as to cause comment in political circles especially as the the avowed purpose of the Doctors of the Regular" or Allopathic school, of which the Association is chiefly com posed, is to secure the passage of such laws as will not only prevent the sale of so-called Patent" medicines, but will restrict the practice of medi- cine and healing to the schools" now recognized. This in many states would prevent the growing practice of Os- teopathy, and in nearly every state would prevent the healers of the Christian Science and mental science belief from practicing those sciences in which the faith of so many intelli- gent people is so firmly rooted.
 The American Medical Association has Committee on Legislation" and the committee has correspond ents in practically every township - some 16,000 correspondents in all. This committee at the last session of the American Medical Association held in June of this year expressed a, hope that a larger number of physi- clans than heretofore will offer them selves as candidates for Congress at the first opportunity In it's annual report this Committee said: ITO meet the growing demands of the move ment, however, particularly if the work of active participation in State legislation is undertaken, a larger clerical force must be employed"
 This Iii E a a1aaest first fir ff. in the the history of the United States that any organized class has frankly avowed the purpose of capturing legislatures and dominating legislation in their own selfish interests. \.
 The American Medical Association has about 65 900 members of whom 27,000 are fully constituted mem- bers" and the rest are members be- cause of their affiliation with state or local societies. The Association owns real estate in Chicago valued at S111,- 7S191 and it's total assets are S291, 567.S9. Its liabilities, at the time of the annual report which was made at the June meeting, amounted to only $21, ,906 The excess of assets over liabilities is increasing at the rate of about S30,000 a year, and the purpose of the organization is to dominate the field of medicine, and by crushing all competitions by securing the pas. co0o of ,,rObibitivo lepicIotiOn comne> all of the people of the United States to pay a doctors fee every time the most simple remedy is needed.

Rope Breaks at Hanqinc.

Indiana, Pa., Aug.-The first hanging in this county for more than 20 years took place Tuesday. The victim ot the law was Carmine Renzo, aged 45 years, and weighing 165 pounds. The weight of the man and the drop of 5 feet proved too much for the strength of the rope, which snapped when the trap was sprung, pfeclpltat- ing Renzo to the ground. The jail attendants hurriedly adjusted the new rope, and the man already half dead, was carried to the platform and the lever was again sprung. This time the execution was successful. Renzo murdered his sweetheart because she refused to marry him.

Moors Still Fight.

Casa Blanca, Aug.-A sharp en- gagement between the French and the Moors took place Tuesday afternoon, about six miles from Gen. Drude's camp. A reconnoitering party of Spa isa came in touch with the enemy, who opened fire on the cavalrymen. The latter replied with effect, but re- treated under instructions, with the object of attracting the attention of the French commander to the Moors' advance. Achievements with artil- lery were promptly forwarded to the scene of fighting, and the Moorish force was driven back into the hills. No loss on the French side is report ed
