SMITHS WILD ANIMAL CIRCUS.

Another large and well pleased
crowd was in attendance last evening
at the Smith Greater Shows which
are furnishing the ATTRACTIONS at
Union Park this week All of the
shows and riding devices did good
business. but 1t remained for the
Smith Wild Animal Circus to again
reach the top notch of patronage.
This show is without question the
star feature of tho entire company as
evidenced by the enormous crowds
that throng the tent at every perfor-
nance and the unerally favorable
comment of its auditors. The tent is
quite large one and probably seats
about 400 people. In the center. di-
rectly in front of the seats and not
ten feet away is very large steel
cage or arena, as it is called. In this
enclosure is where the wild animal
acts are presented. Most showmen
are prone to the overuse of the de-
scriptive adjective in trying to de-
scribe their exhibition, but in this
case wonderful, startling, and thrill
ing are entirely BETTING in describ-
ing the animal acts in the arena. This
is especially befitting TO the perfor-
mances given by Capt. Chester with
the Ieopards. pumas and jaguar. The

How Plant. Remain upr;obt.

IL a howerpot is laid on its side the
stalk of the plant growing in 1t grad
ually curves upward until 1t resumes
the vertical position. This Is called
geotropic curvature, and the question
is by what means the plant Is stimu-
lated to change its direction of growth.
One theory AYERS that movable starch
grains in the plant cells fall to the low
er side as the position is changed and
by their pressure influence the mech
anism of growth. -

q Fins" Written ON the Life
of John q. Carlisle, Yesterday

New York, Aug. latter making a
valiant fight against the occasional
attacks of acute indigestion, which
have FRUSTRATED him periodically, for
years, John G. Carlisle, who was the
distinguished secretary Of the treas
ury under Grover Cleveland in the lat
ter's second administration as presi-
dent died last night in the hotel VOL
colt. at Fifth avenue and Thirty.first
street. He was Is years old.
At his bedside when he passed away

There was a sharp turn for the
worse in the condition Of Mr. Carlisle
early Sunday morning. and the physi-
clans then announced that he could not
possibly survive another "a hours, al.

previous occasions, when his extraor.
binary vitality pulled him through the
crisis.
Patients Brave struggle.

physician, was called to attend Mr..
Carlisle when he had fresh attack of
indigestion at the Wolcott about a
week ago. and In few days DR.. 10.
seph r. Bryant a personal friend OF
MIR. Carlisle was summoned in con-
sultation. Mr.. Morris Carpenter. the
hotel physician was also in attendance
at times.
Despite all that could be done the
aged man grew weaker day by day. al
though he had occasional rallies. even
when the physicians thought he was
breathing his last. On Friday night he
grew SO weak that there was scarcely
a spark Of life in his body. but to the
surprise Of all he showed unusually
good symptoms In the next hour or
two.
When he began to sink early Sunday
morning the physicians were inclined
to look for another rally. but it soon
became evident to them that he was
not equal to the task, and his breath
ing was SO low and the heart action so
slow IS to be almost imperceptible.
Oxygsn then was administered but did
not sem to give any material aid to
the patient. The vital spark was all
but gone.

At the noon hour Mr.. Carlisle show

he lost consciousness. The physicians

patient barely alive. They were ~

1t. He alone besides Berdig4Aux and
Annette knew how II was made to re.
peat even words Of five or sir sylla-
bles in an almost heavenly voice, and
the very next day the director Of the
Paris Apera was coming down to hear
1t. The thought OF q scandal made
Berdigeaux turn pale and actually
kept him awake all night.
At ten the next forenoon three auto
mobiles from Lannion brought the
great man and crowd Of friends and
beautiful ladies'. Al soon Is they had
had refreshments they asked to hear
the famous talking stone.
"A rock that has q million In ita
throat said the director and slapped
Berdigeaux on the back.
Maitre Berdigeaux led on the car
AVIAN as the only guide and after half
an hours walk along rocky paths and
through shady woods the party came
to small beach walled in by two
perpendicular rocks. and at the end
Of this narrow passage was seen the
famous talking stone arising from the
sea.
Maitre Berdigeaux was pale with
fright for he had Just discovered on
the top OF the rock the familiar sill
houetta OF Belliard. but his voice was
quite firm as he shouted the familiar
question:
Echo, are you there?"
Yes, i am here" came the surpris.
ing answer in a beautiful sonorous
voice. i am here. Maitre Berdigeaux.
to tell you that | am tired of playing
echo for three years.
"A roar OF laughter greeted these
words and all the tourists stared at
Berdigeaux who was crestfallen with
grief and red wits indignation.
Suddenly the voice sang the song OF
Fortunio al no one ever heard II suns
before. Silence fell upon the merry
crowd and when the song was over
the director cried in an ecstacy Of en-.
thusiasm:
Il engage you on the spot, my boy!
Five thousand francs . month to start
on Is that enough -
That's q word" cried Belliard
The new singer created q sensation
at the opera and soon made q for
tune. He married Annette Berdigeaux
though her father never forgive him
for destroying the famous talking
stone.

Items Gathered In
From Far and Near
The English Suffrage Vote.

From the New York Evening Post.
Detailed figures of the vote on the
woman suffrage bill in the house of
commons are now at hand. The vote
of 299 in favor of it's second reading
was made up OF ISL liberals, 81 con-
servatives, 81 labor members and 20
Irish nationalists. In the opposing list
of 1S9 were found lis conservatives,
60 liberals, IA nationalists and 2 labor
members. One sees how the question
was at sword for the dividing asun-
der of parties. On the vote immed
lately following to refer the bill to
committee of the whole house. instead
Of to q special committee. there were
a number OF abstentions and many
changes from one side to the other,
the final result being to carry the
motion by 800 to It's. In the major
ity the conservatives numbered 176,
the liberals 1874, while in the minority
were recorded 1G1 liberals and 20 con.
servatives. The adoption OF this mo-
ton to refer has been said to mean the
age bill. But this was not the under
standing Of Mr.. Madame, secretary for
war, who voted for the second read
ing and afterward for the reference to
the committee of the whole, the latter
on the express ground that the suffr-
age bill had now become a first-class
question, and SO entitled to be dealt
with by the house as 4 whole. II is,
of course. for the government ito de-
-AH
ed in the autumn session for taking
up the measure. but whatever that de.
cision may prove to be. there can be
no doubt that the vote Oh second read
ing has made woman suffrage a first
class question in English politics.
Prison Reforms.
From the San Francisco Chronicle.
England has long stood in need OF
the reformed methods of prison man.
agement which Winston Churchill pro
poses. The details OF prison life al
revealed by Mrs. Maybrick and others
seem unnecessarily harsh as compar
ed with the treatment given incarcer
ated persons here. Penal methods &C
complish their purpose better when all
aspects Of injustice are removed from
them. a fact which il better under
stood here than it seems to be In the
old country.
Publicity.
From the Toledo Blade.
A former vice president who de
nounced the muckrakers can obtain :
respectful hearing. but he can't expect
to break into the procession agar
with that platform A better va,
would be to walk out into the street
carefully spread apart the coat tails
sit down and quietly sip cocktail.
