Cashier Couden in Office of
Surveyor of Customs at
Cincinnati Ousted.
MENTIONED IN THE CASE
Technically Trumped Up Against
Him Of Attending Republican
Convention Without Leave.

Washington, Sept. 10.-Frank NJ. Con-
den, cashier in the Office of the sur
veyor Of customs at Cincinnati was dis
charged from the service yesterday.
Couden's removal was ordered on
the specific charge of characterization,
In that he absented himself without
leave from his office. Couden went to
the state republican convention at
Columbus after permission to do so
had been refused by Amor Smith, sur
veyor at Cincinnati.
Served the Purpose.
That was the technical charge
against him, and Senator Dick of Ohio,
without avail, came to his defense. No
charge is formally made against Cou-
den, as far as known, because of the
connection of his name with the War
riner embezzlement scandal in the
Big Four railroad. 1t is common
knowledge, however, the treasury Off
Gals disapproved of Couden's conduct
as indicated by the revelations of that
defalcation.
Took 1t to Wrong Party.
1t is said that 1t was through the
Information of Couden, the Big Four
learned of the Warmer shortage.
Treasury officials were of the opinion
Couden should have told his superior
officers of what he knew instead of
telling it to a political leader, who in
turn took it to the railroad officials.

THE MENACFRIf
 A GREAT SCHOOL
Circus Holiday d Very Important Factor in an Educational
 Way.

An hour can always be spent in a circus menagerie with great pleasure and educational advantage to stu dents of natural history There is no limit to the lessons to be learned i there ill comparative zoology. The trouble is that people are afraid to ask questions of employees of the l common run of shows for fear of dis courteous replies. A great deal of
 in erestimg and odd Information is thus lest.
 There need be no fear of such treatment when the Forepaugh and Sells Brothers circus comes to Pine Bluff on Monday, Nov. l. The man. agement of this show has introduced a new feature in their zooligical tent. All visitors are received and con- ducted through the various aisles and avenues among the pens and cages Gy uniformed lecturers, especially en- gagged to answer all questions and import further information, while i experienced trainers demonstrate the many strange facts
 This is the only circus in the country that gives any special at tention or thought to patrons be- yond permitting them to wander around for short while among the animals and then try to squeeze into the main tent if they can. They are given no assistance whatever. With this show it is the aim ito amuse peo- pie, to instruct them, and by all means to make them comfortable. If one uses his eyes and is not afraid to ask questions, he will pick up any amount of odd information.
 For example, he will learn that a giraffe can utter no sound and can go longer than a camel without food and water; that an elephant does not smell with it's trunk and can feel the
 bite of fly; that camels are bred in Siberia; that hippopotamus ex- udes blood from it's pores wh an- gry; that the male ostrich sits on ] the eggs; that the female kangaroo carries it's young in pouch; that a | rhinoceros eats less than a dog; that the best of Oriental lace is made from the hair of the yak; that the South African viak vaark, or wart dog, has warts on its nose only during times of plenty and when hard times come the warts disappear; that there are two distinct feathers on every quill in the emu's back.
 The menagerie of the Adam Fore ipaugh and Sells Brothers circus is a complete geological chain. Nothing that has any attractive value is mis- sing. In fact, there are many speci- mems on exhibition that never before have been seem in America. There are ESQ animals in all. Among them, besides those already mentioned, are ibexes, zebus, nylghaus, gnus, anteat- CTS. tapirs, pecaries, Ilamas, chimpa-
 nzees, mandrills, kangaroos, porcu- pines. horned horses, zebras, zebroids
 sacred oxen, water buffalo, Philip pine cattle, dromedaries, vast col lection of odd types of fish and fowl and every variety of the cat, bear, deer and monkey tribes.
 An inteesting an amusing feature of the menageies is the nursery where many animal babies are dis played in company with their fero- cious parents.
