PERFORMING TURTLES

OF all living creatures the turtle is
undoubtedly the slowest in its move
ments and probably possesses the
least brain. Yet well-known Ameri-
can naturalist has succeeded in train
ing three of these creatures to do a
number of little tricks He places
them one above the other. on spools,
and if a piece Of cabbage or other
green stuff is held out in front of them
they will make complete circuit, all
moving in unison, keeping their bal
ance and not tumbling off. The big
ger turtle will also ring bell. This
1T grasps in one of its fore feet, jerks
it off the ground, and then gives it
shake. 1t is quite amusing to watch
the slow, deliberate manner in which
this is DONE The turtles have always
lived in their owners house. spending
their time in the kitchen, hunting
down the vermin. One of the turtles
draws little cart about the garden.

NOT ALTOGETHER HIS FAULT
Verdict Brough. IN by Jury Certainly
Was Not FIattering to the
Accused.

A Wheeling CIV. Va.) lawyer says
that he has heard many queer ver-
diets in bis time, but the quaintest OF
these was that brought in not long
ago by jury of mountaineers in
sparsely settled part of that state.
This was the first case for the ma
jority of the jury, and they sat for
hours arguing and disputing over 1t In
the bare little room at the rear OF the
court room. At last they struggled
back to their places, and the foreman,
a lean, gaunt fellow, with superla-
lively solemn expression, voiced the
general opinion:

we think he would have done 1t Ell

GODDESS OF FREEDOMS PAL

All Porch, The old rigger at the cap
itol building in Washington, is the
most intimate associate of her ma
esty, the Goddess of Freedom, who
ssaxds upon the very dome of this
building. which harbors the national
congress. There are electric wires to
be rugged on the bonnet of the goddess
and occasionally she Is to be given
bath and coat of paint. When these
necessities arise it is AL Porch who
is sent aloft to meet this difficult stu
alton. This mounting into the very
presence of Freedom is no mean task.
Rarely is 1t accomplished in any other
method than that of scaling ladders.
For 60 feet before the top of the statue
is reached the ascent must be made
on the outside ladders. This is true
when anyone but AL Porch makes the
ascent. But the rigger has long made
the very pinnacle of the capitol his
playground. He has practically lived
here for 43 years. The upper dome of
the capitol has come to be a passion
with him. A spry little man of GA, he
runs ABOUT THESE great uSISntS dS VI

Is to the capitol what the famous
hunchback was to Notre Dame. Once
he fell from position at the foot of
the goddess and was dashed from pro-
lection to projection down the statue
base. Altogether he fell SO feet and
with one arm broken, chung with his
legs dangling over the abyss below,
which would have meant certain death
If his hold had given way. Yet later
he climbed one after another of the
pillars that support the statue in an at
tempt to capture an escaped canary

indian Sacred BUILDINGS.

The rock-hewn temples of Elephan-
ia, in Bombay harbor, which were
visited recently by the king and
queen numbered six, and four Of them
are nearly complete. They date from
the eighth century A. d. or somewhat
later. The Great Cave, $50 feet above
high-water mark, belongs to a class
of sacred buildings very common in
India. 1t is silva temple, fully 13c
feet long, the main body being a
square of about 80 feet, hewn from
the rock SO as to present three open
sides, and supported by six rows OF
stone columns.
