Tue Horrors of Sport.
"Sport" is horrible. I say it advised
ly. 1 speak with the matured experi
ence of one who has seen and taken part
in eport of many and varied kinds in
many and varied parts of the world. I
can handle gun and rifle as well and
efficiently as most "sporting folk," and
few women, and not many men, have
indulged in a tithe of the shooting and
hunting in which 1 have been engaged
both at home and daring travels and ex
peditions in far away lands. It is not,
therefore, as a novice that I take tip my
pen to record why I, whom some have
called a "female Nimrod," have come to
regard with absolute loathing and detes
tation any sort or kind or form of sport
which in any way is produced by the
Buffering of animals. Lady Florence
Dixie.
Tho Innumerable Chrysanthemums.
The Japanese cite 2G9 color varieties of
the chrysanthemum, of which 63 are
yellow, 87 white, 83 purple. 30 red, 31
pale pink, 13 russet and 14 of mixed col
ors. A fancy prevails in the country
that in this flower the same tint is never
exactly reproduced, and that in this it
resembles the endless variety of the
human countenance. Oarden

AT THE LONDON ZOO.
HCtW THE CHILDREN ENJOY THEM
. SELVES ON A SATURDAY.
Seeing the Animals in London's Great
Harden Take Their Dally Meat Is a
Weekly Attraction In the Clg City.
'Watching: the Creatures Eat.
No day is more animated at the Lon
don Zoological gardens than Saturday,
when the children appear in full force,
marshaled by papas and mammas, who
are doubtless glad enough to visit' the
scene of their own early "larks," but
who try to look as if they came only as
guides and guardians. The little peo
ple begin to appear early in the forenoon,
some of them bringing a lunch basket ,
wherein may be found not only their
own bread and butter but biscuit and
buns "for feeding . the animals.
Those who are to take their noonday
meal in the refreshment room, how
ever, need not be destitute of provender
for their four footed acquaintances; a
bun may always bo bought for a penny,
and biscnit are abundant on many a
convenient counter.
First comes the preliminary ramble,
and then a skurry back to the fish house,
where at 12 o'clock the diving birds are
fed. A large glass tank of clear water
occupies one end of the room, and into
this precisely at noon an attendant
throws a handful of tiny fish, a few of
them still living. Then the side of an
adjoining cage is removed, and down
plunge the penguins to seize their prey.
It must be confessed that their table
manners are not fine. They literally
gobblo fish after fish, and then hurl
themselves about in the water, evidently
delighted with their bath.
Another bird a slender, graceful
creature, familiarly called a "darter"
is admitted alone to the tank, and his
motions in eating his fish dinner are
wonderful to see. He sweeps through
the water like an arrow, and impaling
each fish upon his bill lifts his head,
and in some mysterious and lightning
like manner catches the victim and
swallows it.
THE IUDI4 ON THE ELEPHANTS.
Later in the afternoon the pelicans are
fed in the little yard where they strut
solemnly all day long. A small pond
occupies its center, and into this bits of
fish are thrown, in search of which the
birds rush pell mell, covering the water
with a confusion of gigantic waving
wings. As the attendant approaches to
carry out this pleasing ceremony the
birds awaken from their drowsy calm,
and it is a sight not soon to be forgotten
if one can watch a stately old pelican
lift his wings and begin an awkward
curveting in token of his joy.
In the bear pit, a deep and well lighted
inclosure, dwell two bears, who are un
wieldy with the fatness produced by
many buns. They have been so per
sistently fed by visitors that when one
looks over the railing his boarship calm
ly rises, holds out two entreating fore
paws and sits in pleased anticipation of
a feast.
He catches bits of bun in his month
with the unerring skill given by long
practice, and will even climb the pole in
the center of the pit, if one will but hold
a bun over it suspended from a stick.
"But how will ho know I want him to
climb?"' said a little girl, who had just
been provided with this plummy bribe.
"Just hold it near the pole where he
can got it," said an attendant, "and hell
do the rest. He knows as much as we
do."
So, heavily and with much panting,
the awkward creature mounts his pole,
seizes the bm . and descends to munch it
in content.
The crowuiog joy of all perhaps for
little visitors is that of riding the ele
phants, which, provided with great sad
dles, large enough for a dozen people,
take their load of shrieking, laughing
children and go lumbering off down the
walks, waving their trunks this side and
tliat in the hope of receiving a stray tit
bit from tho neighboring crowd.
FEEDINQ THE LIONS.
Later in the day comes one great
event, to which even the most serious
grown person must be interested. At
half past 4 the lions are fed! Long
before the time visitors begin to pour
into the, building where, in large cages
against the wall, lions, tigers and leop
ards are pacing restlessly up and down.
The creatures themselves need no
watches to tell them dinner time is near.
At tho appointed moment a man en
ters, pushing a barrow of bleeding meat,
and wheels it past the cages to the very
end of the room. At the smell and
sight p:mdomonium breaks loose. One
terrible roar, made by many voices in
awful concord, fills the place. At the
last cage the barrow stops, a bar is
thrown back, and two large pieces ef
meat are thrown in. The lion seizes them
in his paws and lies contentedly down,
to gnaw and lick them with the delib
eration of a well fed animal.
So the programme goes on, until one
voice after another is silenced and the
barrow is empty. One very interesting
fact is always to be observed. The
animals do not, on receiving their first
piece of meat, retire to devour it; they
wait for the second and then turn away
with both held securely in their paws.
They have evidently learned how much
to expect and can count up to that
number.
Indeed the delighu of the Zoo are
almost inexaustible to animal loving
children. There is the monkey house,
where those grave, wrinkled, half hu
man creatures sit picking fleas from
each other with an air of funny absorp
tion. There is the chimpanzee "Sally,"
who will count five for her keeper by
passing him the requisite number of
straws, and who, at request, will eat
with her fingers, as she "used to do,"
-and then with a fork, as she does now
that she is civilized. "Queer old Sally,"
as one little boy said, and happy children
who can see hert-Youth's Companion.
Fish swallow their food whole because
they are obliged to keep continually
opening and closing the mouth for the
purpose of respiration.

Brought the Officials to Terms. I
A determined German brought the of- I
f) rl 1 q nf n. Mflw .Tcrwv t-nil-rrvti I fnTmiomr
to terms. So crowded was a local train
on the Morris and Essex railroad that
many of the passengers could not find
seats. As the train started, an indig
nant Teuton stopped the train by pulling
the bell cord and demanded that an
empty car on the track be attached.
The other passengers sustained him, but
the demands were not heeded. When
the train started again the German onco
more pulled the bell cord and announced
that he would pull it every time the
train started unless another car vrsi : f
tached. After considerable dispv.t '. i
railroad officials gave in, backed uown
the train, attached another car. and
thus furnished seats for all its passen
gers. Yankee Blade.
A Meteor with Gold in It.
The discovery of gold in a meteorite
which has just been made by Fedjr.i
Government Geologist Turner in C:ili
fornia, is of unusual interest. Thv
meteorite in question is about the size of
a man's fist, and around a good portion
of it is a solid film of gold. In one part
the metal is about an inch square. Gold
has never before been found in connec
tion with meteoric iron, and it demon
strates, says Mr. Turner, "that there is
gold in the worlds of space." New
York Recorder.
Found No Indiana.
A New Haven small boy who ran
away from home four years ago to slay
Indians was heard from the first time
the other day, when he wrote to his par
ents. According to his letter he had trav
eled over nearly every state west of the
Mississippi, and had endured untold pri
vations, but had not succeeded in his un
dertaking. He is said to be on his way
home, heartily sick of his wild life. Ex
change. There are a uumber of societies in tne
world that bear strange names, but
probably one of the most . curious was a
club founded in 1705 by an English ac
tor. It was called "The Sublime Soci
ety of Beefsteaks," and had among its
members the Prince of Wales and other
royal personages. They met in the
painting room of the Oovent Garden
theater, and dined upon ' beefsteaks.
The club was in existence for more than
a hundred years, and became quite
noted because of its odd customs. An
other strange nai was that of the
"Scriblerus clnb." which Swift founded
in 1714. and to which Pope, Gay and
Other literary men belonged. Harper's
Mrs. Million's Bide.
When Mrs. Million goes to Tide she travels forth
in state,
Her horses, full of fire and piide, go prancing
from the gate:
But all the beauties of the day she views with
languid eye,
lier flesh iu weakness wastes away, her voice is
but a sigh.
For Mrs. Million is in an advanced
stage of catarrh, and all the luxuries
that wealth can boy fail to give her com
fort. She envies her rosy waiting-maid,
and would give all her riches for that
young woman's pare breath and bloom
ing health. Now, if some true and dis
interested friend would advise Mrs. Mil
lion of the wonderful merits of Dr.
Sage's Catarrh Remedy, she would
learn that her case is not past help.
$500 reward is offered by the manufactur
ers for a case of catarrh in the head
which they cannot cure.
Not a Monopolist.
A Curd to the Public.
I would respectfully inform the pub
lic that I have been able to procure a
pretty- fair outfit for raising or moving
houses, and am willing to do that kind
of work at reasonable figures. But I do
wish it distinctly understood that, after
looking at a job, I am to be the sole
judge of the price to be set upon the
work that I am to undertake, or may do.
If there is any person who may think
that there is big money to be made at
house moving in The Dalles, by doing
work for less than I can do it, I would
advise him to prepare himself, by buy
ing tools, and reap some of the rich har
vest. In conclusion I will say that if I
am called upon to do any work in my
line, I shall endeavor, in the future, as
in the past, to give entire satisfaction in
all respects to my employer.
Most Respectfully,
Andrew Velarde.

Three days is a very short time in
which to cure a bad case of rheumatism ;
but it can be done, if tbe proper treat
ment is adopted, as will be seen by the
following from James Lambert, of New
Brunswick, Ills. : "I was badly afflicted
with rheumatism in the hips and legs,
when I bought a bottle of Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. It cured me in three days.
I am all right today ; and would insist
on every one who is afflicted with that
terrible disease to use Chamberlain's
Pain Balm and get well at once." 50
