ANIMAL THAT NEVER DRINKS
Not a Drop Ever Passes the Brazilian
Porcupines Lips--Liyes on
Bark and Leaves.

An animal that never drinks has AZ.
rived in London. Undoubtedly it is
the first and only one, and all London
is rushing 10 see it. Naturally such a
curiosity is confined in The zoo.
"Wot bun'appy beast it is' No
wonder its bristies stick out Ike that, +"
remarks a maa who has just drawn
the back Of his hand across his mouth.
z DO look drier than me Sunday

Temperance advocates use the new-
comer % poi9t moral and ,adorn a
tale. Behold the lesson that he
teacheth! Never a drop passes his
lips Would that there were men in
London that could say as much"
1t remains to be seen whether this
Brazilian tree porcupina win take to
drink now that he has been separated
from his South American habitat and
brought to the gloomy and chill pur.
lieus of London. If he does demand
drink, what will he choose? Maybe
some of the curious visitors will sur,
reptitiously ply him with a little ale
or gin or some other London beverage
to see its eject upon an animal that
has never had drop of anything to
drink,
In his native Brazil this animal
feeds upon the bark and leaves Of
trees, and the natives are very fond
of it's flesh. If has n prehcnSilo tail.

STEEL ROD AND LEAD BAR
IMPR0vISED TOOLS USED

Leave.

An attempted Jail delivery was
frustrated Yesterday afternoon when
Deputy Sheriff w P. Greaney dis
covered that large hole had been

white men and three negroes, also
charged with larceny.

ney found the implements with
which the prisoners had extracted
the bricks. One of the men had
used a steel rod about two feet long,
with one blgnt end, into which
teeth had been filed The other had
used fiat lead bar about ten inches
long. Teeth mad been FLED into one
end OF this bar.
The hole in the wall was eighteen
incnes deep and large enough for
man to crawl through. but was

This pilaster is about two feet
thick at the point where the hole
was bored the top of the hole was

the wall was the same thickness at
this point as ii was underneath tho

Shepherds enjoy extraordinarily
good health. It is not simply mat.
ter of the open air, the farmers do
not show bill OF health nearly as
clean. Doctors have suggested that
the reason lies in the fact that the
strong odor of the sheep has an anti.
septic influence and kills off stray
germs. The odor is supposed to be
particularly good for whooDing cough,
and in a sheep rearing district moth
ers often send ailing children to play

Fire Worshipers.

The Parsees Of Bombay are called
the fire worshipers' Of the east be.
cause they hold in great reverence the
fire they brought with them from Per-
sia and have never allowed it to be
come eXtinguished in their temples;
and because they worship the sun as
the author of life.
The Paraees have always held alo0f
from other people and are famed fer
their commercial ability As u conse-
quence of this ability they are the
wealthiest, most cultured and inGu-
ential class in Bombay So numerous
are they that Bombay has been called
the city Of Parsees.
The religion of the Parsees is one
of the ancient religions of the world,
and was the religion of Persia when
that country was second in power Of
the four great empires of the world
Babylonia, Persia, Greece, Rome
In a great many particulars the re-
ligion Of the Parsees comes nearer to
Christianity than any other Oriental

Husiyeiy that Grissom absolutely
