SEAL PUPS COMING HERE.
Raised by Boatswain After Their
Mother Had Been Killed.

Judson Thurber. boatswain on the
internal revenue cutter Bear, who accom-
plished for the first time the wonderful
feat of raising two fur seal pups after
their mother had been killed by pelagic
sealers, something that scientific men
have hitherto believed impossible. is COM
ing to Washington with his young
charges.
Secretary NageI, upon the recommends
ton of Fish Commissioner Bowers has
asked the Secretary OF the Treasury to
detail Thurber to accompany the seal
pups to Washington, and to remain here
for a short while until the pups become
accustomed to a change Of keepers.
The story Of Thurber's experiment with
the seal pups was published in The Star
last Sunday. The expense Of transporta-
ton of Thurber and his young charges
will be borne by the Department of Com
merce and Labor, which represents the
government ownership OF the young seals.
1t is the purpose of Commissioner Bow
ers to continue the experiment success
fully begun by Thurber, and 1t is hoped
thereby TO save the lives of thousands OF
young seals that now are left to die of
starvation after their mothers are slain
by the pelagic sealers. If such a thing
be found to be practicable, 1t will result
in saving of many thousands of dollars
annually to the government, and do a
great deal toward the preservation OF the
fur seal herds. which are now being rapid
~ depleted.

many years they have been accustomed
