THE UBIQUITOUS SEA LION.
He Strayed a Long Way From Home
 Before He Was Killed.

The following story is taken from the American Magazine:
 Sunday is dull day. and the city editors had habit of detailing men to go to the geological gardens and get animal stories for Monday morning The reporters got together one Sunday morning and persuaded the head ami. nlal keeper to let them publish fake story. It was rather commonplace. concerning the alleged escape of non. existent sea lion from the pool to open water.
 Fake. said the managing editor as he read the story. Lets make it a 90 al one
 Therenpon he sent telegrans to ev- ery country correspondent on that wa ter or its tributaries, merely inquiring if anything had been seen of the es- capped sea lion. The response was ap- palling. The correspondents needed only the hint That day the sea lion was seen by at least twenty core spondents. and Berghand printed all tue reports one after another Thus spnrred. the correspondents went to it in earnest. The following day the sea lion was reported at every point with in 900 miles The story spread like ripplcs on water In five days the lion was sighted over half the world. and an enthusiast at Southampton cabled that he was heading toward the north sea Then cruel correspondent up on Lake Superior killed him and wired that he was sending the skin as proof l always suspected that the managing editor did it himself"

THE GILA MONSTER.
Repusive In Looks. It Is Really
 Harmless Creature.

Probably there is no other living creature more feared by the ignorant than the Gila monster. about " hich all manner of weird tales have been told. 1t has even been held that the mere breath of this animal is sufficient to cause death to the one upon whom 1t fell. Scientific inquiry. however, fails to disclose a single instance wherein the breath or even the bite of this creature has resulted fatally. The fact that dissection and microscopic examination do not reveal any trace of glands for the secretion of venom is sufficient evidence to indicate that this curious member of the lizard family has been slandered
 Some years ago civil engineer in the southwest undertook to settle once for all the question whether "the mon- ster" was deadly or not X fine speci. men was captured and confined in a wire incloSure. \ chicken was obtain rd, and it's feathers were removed in order that the lizard might have every opportunity to strike at the breast. The chicken was then held quite close to the Gila monster, which soon snap ped viciously and secured firm hold on the fowls breast, retaining this grip for more than ten minutes When the victim was released it was found that the chlcken's breastbone had been bro ken Nevertheless the fowl quickly recovered the bone knitting and the wound healing with no symptoms of poisoning.
 It is very probable that the reputa- tion for evil borne by the Gila mon- ster is due simply and solely to it's most repulsive appearance .-Harper's Weekly.
