THE MIGHTY LION.
It Is
Easy Enough to 8esre Him If
You Know Just How.
If a lion or a tiger suddenly appears
before you, just hold a chair out In
front of him, and he won't do a thing.
Allen Williams, who, la the course of
bis experience with wild animals has
been In that predicament often enough
to know, says: "These creatures have
n much more limited intelligence than
Is generally supposed. They can take
In only one thing at a time, and the
four legs of a chair would keep any
lion busy thinking for a long time
''That "is tho reason,, whj v anjmal
trainers carry two" whlpfhen'jthcy
arc In the circus ring, One for crack
ing and awing the performers, tbo oth
er for emergencies. If one of the Hons
tries to attack htm tho trainer simply
holds tho reserve whip in front of him.
The two objects together are too much
for the lion's Intelligence, and he Is Im
mediately subdued."
Another proof of the limited Intelli
gence of the cat tribe, say trainers, Is
the fact that their performances must
always come In tbo same order of suc
cession. If by some accident the order
Is broken, the animals are completely
lost, nnd the trainers are few who can
keep them in submission once they be
come confused. In fact, most trainers
consider themselves lucky In a case of
this sort If they can get the Hons
quietly back into their cages.
The whole cat family, moreover, Is
ns treacherous as It Is stupid, Milwau
kee Sentinel.
LAST OF THE PASCAGOULAS.
An Indian Lsgtnd From the Shorts of
tho Oulf of Mtxloo.
An ludlHO legend of the Pnsongoulits
Is told by the fishermen and oyster

of Moxleo,
A point tvRelios out Into the gulf

The ruM'iigoulas colled a council of

Soared by Frogs.
It Is said to be owod to the frogs of
western Australia that that part of the
empire Is English and not French.
About 1800 a party of prospective
French colonists landed on the west
coast of Australia, but on the first
morning they were alarmed by tho
loud croaking of the frogs, which they
wqk for aomons. and retired with all
speed to their ships. Western Austra
lia might have preferred the frog to
the swan as hot emblem, Just as Rome
might have preferred, Instead of the
eagle, tho goose that saved the capital.
