ANIMALS SURE TO "CO BAD" After This Stage Beasts Are of No Use to Circus Men Never Be turn to Old Ways. No man living knows all about animals, or more than a very little about them, declares McClure's Magazine. Some who are dead thought they knew. That is the reason they are dead. Only ttiosn who realize their ignorance and inpplement it with untiring watch fulness last long in this queer business that I'm in. ": Sooner or later, mo: animal of the cat kind become utterly in tractable and remain so. "Going bad" is the professional term for this. Rarely do they return' to their old, amenable ways. Hence 'orth they are of no use as perf orm ?rs, and are relegated to the exhi bition cages, for any man entering the cage of a lion or tiger that has gone bad is instantly attacked. This is one of the terrors of the trade. Symptoms of the change of heart are apparent enough sometimes, particularly . in ani mals who are growing old. Occa sionally, however, some vouncr beast, formerly as obedient as you could wish, will turn murderous without cause or warning. If her, trainer gets out alive he is lucky. If he ever enters her cage again he's a fool. - Quite Proficient. , 'Jack Your friend, Mrs. G"usK erly, is always using slang phrases, isn't she? Elyth Yes, indeed.

Insects, Crabs and Other Animal Pos sess Bemarkable Faculty for Changing Color. Many insects, birds, animals and even fish and crabs are won derfully clever imitators. They will take upon themselves the color, shape or position of their surroundings so perfectly that neither friend nor enemy can dis cover their whereabouts. There is a fish to be seen in the kelp beds about the island of San ta Catalina which has a clever way of making itself invisible. The body is slender, with a pointed head and prominent eyes. Aloni; the back is a continuous frill, which is the dorsal fin, while, op posite, the anal fin is equally or namented. The fish vary in color. Some are amber, others urange or vivid green, while some have two hues combined, dark and light green or olive and yellow. These peculiarities of form and color render the fish marvelously like the kelp leaves among which it seeks protection. A number of these fish were placed in the tanks of the Zoolog ical Gardens, where they might be observed. They showed great un easiness, some of them 'even leap ing from the tank. Another tank was prepared where the natural surroundings of the fish were imi tated as nearly as possible. A branch of microcystis, with leaves hanging in the water, was sus pended over . the tank. The most uneasy of the fish were placed in the new home, and their change of feeling was soon evident. One swam at once to the kelp leaves and poised itself head downward. Another, with head poised up ward, became a remarkable imita tion of the hanging lea ves in shape and color. The fish made no fur ther effort to escape. Another inhabitant of the kelp beds is an olive green crab, which clings to the under side of the kelp tangles. This crab also showed great uneasiness when it was placed in a tank. When the kelp was introduced it crawled upon it and was at oncealmest invisible, so much did it resemble the kelp leaves. Another crab makes itself look exactly like a rough stone. When it is alarmed it d raws nn i i is legs and appears a. bit nf in anil- mate stone. Several deert had been found at a deph of 800 feet were kept in a tank for sev eral weeKs. wnen taken from the dredging net they were a dark brown, though presumably the spot wnere they came from was so dark that thev have been seen. Yet even tint - type" of apparently had sufficient intelligence to real ize that m the light of the tank it was a conspicuous object, so began to add seaweed to its back. The seaweed was plucked, "Thr-ii passed to the mouth .and fi.inii,. attached, not to the back, but to me point or the shell above the mouth so that it fell over the crab like a gorgeous plume, makingthe crab very conspicuous. But wher it was startled the dump nf can. weed would point upward, and me crao wou.a tecome a rock with a i in i or seaweed growing upon it, well calculated to deceive the most, observing enemy. Choate on Texas Justice. One of Ambassador Choate's legal stories told at a gathering of lawyers on his last visit to this country related to a Texas judge before whom a prisoner was brought charged with horse steal ing. The judge promptly sen tenced the prisoner to be.hanged, but his lawyer interrupted. ! "You can't hang thisprisoner according to law, your honor," he ' said. ': - J "Guess you're right," said the judge. "Well, I'll discarge him and it's tip to the boys to hang him according to the regular custom." N.Y.Times. Human Nature. "Are you a friend to William Bliggins?" - "That ne'er-do-well? I should say not." "Then you'll hardly be interest ed to hear that he has inherited $1,000,000." ' "What? Dear, old Bill?"
