the common property of the crew. The problem
of feeding mascot is not that need give
anybody any concern for. as may be imagined,
the average naval mascot is hopelessly overfed
by his indulgent masters but the responsibility
for keeping pet in his proper place aboard the
vessel and seeing to 1t that he behaves, is diff
ferent matter. Especially must sharp watch
be kept on his department If there be several
pets aboard for then the animal jealousy that
usually appears under such circumstances is
famed to a fierce flame, and free-for-all fights
deck would be daily occurrence. for the
vigilance of the bluejackets detailed to keep
order.
Many persons who seldom visit United States
warships have long been of the impression that
dogs and cats constitute almost the sole repre-
sentatives of the animal kingdom holding posi-
tons as naval mascots This is very far from
being the To be sure these household ia
vorites do head the roster. numerically of naval
mascots, but they are by no means in majority
in the whole census Of pets ahoat On the con-
trary find included In the census OF the mas
cots of Uncle Sans navy pretty nearly every anil
NAL that could be mentioned except the ones that
too large to find quarters aboard ship and
the very wild ones which too ferocious to be
tanned, by the Establishments of the blue
jackets. Furthermore. wide variety Of birds
have proven their eligibility to classification
naval mascots.
Among the more less dumb companions
lected by Yankee tars to help enliven life aboard
warships there might be mentioned bears,
Shetland ponies. monkeys, pigs, geese deer,
parrots, endless variety of tropical birds. and
almost all the small fur-bearing animals

however, such collection is rapidly thnned out,
for many Of the sailors send to their homes on
shore or bestow upon friends the living trophies
they have brought home particularly the birds
and monkeys and the quaint little dogs that
brought from China and Japan.
1t is more than is to be expected that the
pets aboard warships a rule possessed
of wonderful line of accomplishments. When
a warshp is engaged in extensive cruise the
majority of the men aboard have, at time
another, plenty of leisure at their disposal, and
they devote considerable portion of 1t to teach
ing tricks to the pets aboard. Many persons who
have witnessed the really wonderful stunts
done by naval mascots or have noticed fourfoot-
ed mascots marching in parade with naval
battalion and conforming to all the military or
ders given have gained the impression that the

for the homage due a ships mascot
The number of pets mascots aboard ship
depends somewhat the good nature of the
captain. for the commander of the warship has
the say as to whether not any prospective
pet be allowed to find a home aboard the craft.
Indeed, the naval regulations-that bulky blue
bound volume which lays down the law for every
thing in the navy-dignifes this subject of pets
by deyoting paragraph to It, In this reference
to pets in the naval book of etiquette 1t is set
down that the officer of the deck (who CORE
spends to the officer of the day at military
camp must not allow any pets to be brought
aboard unless the permission of those In author

However. it is only exceptionally grouchy
commander who ever makes any objection to the
presence on board of any reasonable number of
pets Indeed many officer with natural
fondness for pets, has come to have genuine af-
lection for four-footed friends aboard ship. More
over. the presence of pets helps to keep the
men contented. And finally 1t is just well
for an oficer-considering tho wellknown super
stittons of tars-to recognize that ancient tradi

DEMONSTRATION IN METZ

Great stress is being laid In France upon ag-
itation that has prevailed in Metz lately, the New
York Sun says. 1t started Sunday evening
when a local association called La Lorraine Spor-
tive attempted to give a concert in room In
hotel which 1t had hired for the purpose. No
sooner had M Samain the president arisen to
make address of welcome in French than
inspector of police and eight constables took pos
session of the stage and announced that the con-
cert could not, be held because it was a public
meeting and contrary to law.
There were loud protests, but In vain. Samain
and the leader of the orchestra arrested
but the musicians went on playing. They played
the "Marche Sambre ct Meuse," which is a French
air The trumpets sounded French fanfares. The
police ordered the audience to disperse instead
1t hooted the police and shouted ''Vive la Lor
raine!" Finally It marched out singing the Mar
seillase" the trumpets still playing
Samain held prisoner for than week.
The police endeavored to get full list of mem
bers of La Lorraine Sportiye, but failed. One of
It's committeeman M Seh arrested, however.
Samain was Intercepted in court every day on
charges of melting rebellion. Public opinion re-.
mained at high tension and In the middle of 1t all

1t is said the order for the police action came
from the central authorities OF the annexed pro-
vince of Strassburg. Some of the opinion
that 1t was designed to provoke demonstrations
which would cause postponement of the new con-
stitutional scheme for AlsaceLorraine. In the
long the government seems to have become
alarmed at the violence OF the pro French senti-
ment revealed by the incident OF sudden Sa-
main and Sehl were released without bail and no
seemed to know whether they will ever be
prosecuted any further.
Meanwhile the bitter feeling against German
ization is generally expressed in talk and finds
vent in the papers In protests against the So
called constitution scheme of Prussian tyran-
ny. In France there is unmistakable emotion In
all classes over what is taken to be irrefragable
proof of the innate loyalty of the sundered PEG
pie to the French flag.

aboard naval craft. The most dignifed entry
is that made by the animal which has been spe-
officially designated in advance NE official
cot of a new warship and is brought aboard
with due ceremony at the time the vessel is
placed In commission. Often such mascot is
native of and donation from the state. city
after which warship is named, as for instance,
the handsome white goat which presented
to the battleship Kentucky by citizens of the blue
grass state when that craft first went into
mission.
Another favored manner of introduction for
pets aboard warships is by transfer from other
craft. This is apt to occur only when
sci is being placed out of commission and another
and newer craft Is being placed in commission at
about the same time, and presumably at the same
navy yard. There have been instances when
tire crews have been transferred thus from
ship to another, and when a warship is
merely being laid up for repairs and will retain
a skeleton crew" aboard it usually happens that
there is quite contingent of bluejackets to be
shifted to some other floating home. These boys
naturally like to take with them their pets
mascots, and the officers of ships to which they
thus transferred can seldom find much fault
with mascots thus enlisted since such veteran
pets experienced in all the ways of life aboard
warship and there is no danger Of them max
ing trouble, do newcomers until they get
their sea legs"
Many cat or dog has begun honorable

company. After ALL however, the method most
commonly In vogue In the recruiting Of mascots
is that whereby the individual bluejacket takes

shore. Under such circumstances the tar who
has discovered the mascot is accounted the owner
long the pet remains aboard ship. and his
rights of ownership recognized, however
much the other jackies may pet the mascot or
teach him tricks.
The officers of a warship usually prefer to have
every pet thus individually owned for 1t makes
one individual aboard responsible for the animal;
for his feeding. ETC.. and for his behavior. In
deed, there are many advantages to the
scheme that many ships 1t las become the
custom to designate enlisted man as the
keeper of each pet, even though the mascot has
come aboard, under circumstances that mako 1t
