REBELS PLAN TO ATTACK
CAPITAL, LATEST RUM0R.

Mexico City. Nov. 24--Ths Mexican
Herald says:
That the revolutionists are planning
to lead all federal troops possible away
from Mexico City by making attacks on
many of the smaller towns is the belief
of the authorities. If the rebels can
accomplish this, they hope then 10 be
able TO overcome the troops remaining
here and take the city for their own.
I'm the same way il is believed that tho
revolutionists and revolutionary sympa-
thizers are now leaving here as rapidly
as possible, seeking 10 join their fellow
rebels under arms in various parts OF
the country. BY so doing they hope not
only TO strengthen their own forces. but
to lessen the number of defenders OF the
city as well.'
Information from several sources was
received that Madero crossed the river
between the United States and Mexico,
and that he is now with his forces march
ing south in Coahuila to meet the federal
troops at BaTroteran. midway between
Eagle Pass and Monterey. and there cast
the die in one battle.
Celso Acosta, secretary OF the inspee-
cion general de polica. declared last
night that a number of arrests viii be
made to-day or tomorrow. and so far as
known now, viii be from the ranks OF
one organization here. This club has
been very active in promoting revolution

Two little baby seals, all the way from
Alaska, have found a new home in the
Zoo here However. all stories ought TO
be told properly. Here's the way:
Once upon time there were eieHen
little baby fur seals playing about the
beaches OF the Pribilof Islands, up near
Alaska. Along came lot OF men-they
were from the United States revenue-cut-
ter Bear-and the babies were all whisked
off TO that vessel. Now here's what hap
pened 10 them:
Two little seals were left at the Golden
Gate Park In San Francisco. That left
nine.
-Four little seals didn't like civilization
and escaped in Lake Washington, at Sc
attic. That left five.
One little seal longed so for his home
Islands that he just simply died-in Sc
attic. That left four.
Two little seals. after travelling clear
across the continent TO the Capital, were
taken away yesterday by Mr.. Grant. OF
the New York Aquarium. That left two

that those who consulted with Mr.. Car

While Ensign ThurberS Pets Prosper Here.

or the eleven little baby fur seals II
might be added that many months ago
Ensign Thurber. Of the Bear, captured
two baby seals on the Pribilof Islands.
He fed them with 3 bottle until they
began 10 demand more substantial ra-
tions. He tried to make them eat FISH,
but while they showed the desire they
couldn't do It. only wide-open and
yearning mouths met his efforts.
Thurber looked at those mouths COM
passionately and then made a discovery.
There were some ligaments that prevent
ed the seals from swallowing the fish.
He ruthlessly tore them away and was
gratihed 10 ind that his charges ate a
hearty meal and then went TO sleep.
The Bureau of Fisheries heard about
II and Thprber brought the seals here.
They are still here and prospering. The
bureau sees a way in Thurber's dis
eovery of keeping fur seals In captivity
and increasing their number. which is
fast falling below the demand. 1t was
this rapid decrease that brought about
the protection OF seals on the Pribilof
Islands by the United States government.
