er, then run amuck through a
theatre smashing cages and ev-
erything in sight. Not content
with shackling the big beast,
Driesbach led him into the ring,
made him lie down and then
stood on the animals head. From
there he spoke: Ladies and gen.
temen, unaccustomed as am
to public speaking, this is the
proudest day of my life. 7 have

for my monument. This is my
first and last appearance as a

1t took a diminutive woman to
tame the lion tanner. One day
in August, 1850, the circus was
travelling over the old Wooster
and Wheeling stage route and
reached Mount Eaton at dinner
time. At the tavern there Dries
bach met Miss Sarah Walter,
daughter of John Walter of Woos-
ter township, who was a boarder
there. Just to help out she had
gone into the dining room to help
wait table.
Uncle" Gus Hunt, an old
Snowman who was with Dries
bach complimented the dinner
and asked Driesbach what he
thought of it. Everything here
but an onion" the lion tanner
said. The waitress asked if he
would like to have an onion and
Driesbach answered, "Yes, if il
is fresh" Miss Walter ran out
into the garden and brought him
two onions, bits of dirt still hang,
ing to them.

Lion, Tanner

Among her people of the past
of whom Wayne county today re-
mains most proud was Herr
Driesbach, the lion tanner. He
wasn't a native son but married
one of the hometown girls, which
meant just as much if not more.
Driesbach was born November
2, 1907, at Sharon, Schoharie
county, New York, of German
parents. His father died when
he was IL and the boy drifted
to New York City where he got
a job in the zoo and soon, young
as he was, made a reputation
for control of wild beasts. They
liked him but held him in much
fear. The boy was the first to
make a performing animal of
the leopard. W
In 1880 he was hired by Ray
mond and Company and sent to
Europe with their travelling me
nagerie, travelling G through
out England, Scotland, Ireland,
France, Germany, Holland and
Russia before coming back to
America in 1910 with a world
wide reputation.
Once when playing at the old
Bowery, in New York, with Ed
win Forrest, the actor on the
same bill, which closed with an
exhibition by Driesbach's lions,
Forrest Dragged to Driesbach
that he felt no fear of lions him
self and that the lion act wasn't
such a thriller after all.
After the end of the show that
night Driesbach invited Forrest
home with him for a supper and
ushered him into dark room

Maryland and Ohio produce
more than a million each. They
are found in most of North
America and North of Mexico.
Muskrats, like beavers are ro-

are chiefly herbivorous but oc-
casionally eat small fish, mussels,
and salamanders. Their main
food is made up of aquatic plants.
The total length of these an
imals is from l " to feet. Their
weight is about 2 pounds. Their
color is dark brown on the
upperparts and light on the
underparts. The pelts are worth
from 2 to 5 dollars each.
Muskrats are very prolific, but
they have many enemies other

them under control, otherwise
they would overrun the contin-
ent. Their enemies are birds Of
prey as hawks, and owls; Mann

pike and pickerel. The chief
enemy is the mink.
