SOME FEATURES OF
 BARNuM & BAlLEY'S SHOW

The department of Surgery =a6i Med icine is the principal feature in care of Barnum and Bailey's geological col lection. George Conklin with his corps or assistant veterinary surgeons ex- ercises the utmost vigilance in his daily examination of each cage. Not long ago, it was found necessary to re move some ingrowing claws that weie setting Princess. the beautiful African lieness. almost frantic with pain. l. required the combined efforts of the entire surgical staff to rope ana nUia Princess waile the operation was be- ing performed. A piece of scantlins six by three inches was thrust into the cage to pin the animal in q corner; then moose was dropped over her head. With one blow of her paw Prin- cess smashed the stout piece of wood to splinters. Another scantling was thrust in only likewise to be convert ed into kindling wood.
 While this was going on ropes wei. slipped about Princess neck and body. She was drawn firmly against the pEr 5 and. as her feet stuck through them, they were seized and held. In this way the urgeon-chiropodist was able to go about his work and in a twink ling had shipped off the narrowing claws.
 Elephants. deer and monkeys au docile under the hands of the yeteri- nary surgeon. Some time ago Ouch ess a monster elephant, was sunei ing from rheumatism-an ailTent cal eulated to make anything of flesh and blood irritable The animal quietly submitted to all the dictates ol 5ii :. Conklin. was bound in hot bandagss and swathed in a curious and cum bersome costume. It even consented to have its temperature taken daily.
 In captivity elephants must have their feet trimmed occasionally, ye cause they do not have sufficient ex- ereise to wear the pads of the feet to the unsual thinness. Then, too, unless cared for the toes would curve up under the foot like an ingrowing nail. With surgeons drawknlte, = rasp. horseshoer's knift and plenty of sandpaper, the pedicurist sets to work. He makes the obedierI v, >sf elevate a hind foot. resting it on a stout box. until it is gone over; then submit the other to treatment. In or der that the IOfeISeJ EistS De NIedteu the big animal is made to lie upon it's side. Elephants generlly submit to such operation peacefully, seeming to know that it is intended for their re- l lief
 The small monkeys of the collection are also easy to operate upon One known as Jimmie. for instance. broke delicte arm in its gambols. He ap' preached his keeper chattering softly and holding up the injured member as i if to appeal for hedp. When the limb | had been set and incased in a plaster cast. a circle of thin board was tlxeu about Jimmie's neck in order to pre- vent him from gnawing off the band ages. When all was over and the oth CT monkeys gathered about to inspect the sufferer, he looked just like cir | GUS clown.
 It is said that the menagerie of tle ] Barnum and Bailey Gratest Show on Earth which exhibits near BisDee al ! Don Luis next Wednesday contains the rarest and most costly collections of wild animals ever assembled in one ] group.

trout, only one in the lot being lawful.
In the sixty there were twenty-five trout
that measured five, five and a quarter
and five aud one-half inches. Large
enough to fry. We think the people that
passed the last fish laws should be placed
on the cruelty list as it is almost impos-
sibe to remove trout from hook with
out tearing out part of the mouth, gills,
or eyes, thus causing them to die. There
surely must have been lack of intelli-

AN exchange cautions the widows of
Union veterans of the war of the Rebel
lion against the speedy pension sharks at
Washington. These sharks are sending
out letters to soldiers widows, through
out the country, soliciting their applca-
tions for pensions under the recent act of
Congress. The act provides that widows,
who have been receiving less than slipper
month, shall have their pensions increased
to Sl2. Prospective benefciaries of this
law should take notice that it is not nec-
essary for them to apply to anybody for
the increase; the amount will be paid tc
them when they present their vouchers to
the local agents, at the next pay day.
