r MAD TO FIGHT, -

How «6 Captain Enforced Discipline Aboard Ship.

The British ship City of Florence was lying at anchor off port waiting to sail. There was a breeze of excitement on board, the result of which was a “scrap” between two sailors and a plunge for lib- erty iato the bay. The crew had been en- gaged for some days, and the steward and the cook had become great cronies, and Capt. Leask noticed that the steward spent most Of his time in the galley, and he took him to one side and spoke to him “like a father.” He told him that it was very had policy to get chummy with the cook, for it would be sure to end in a disagree- ment.

As the captain had predicted, it came to pass that the cook went to him with a long complaint about the steward, and scarcely nad he gone out of the cabin when the steward ¢/sme in with a similar tale.

“Wait « bit,” said Capt. Leask, and he passed the word for the cook. When the latter entered the cabin the captain said:

“Now, then, you two gentlemen have started to fight, and we will sail to-mor- row. It will be a continual fight on the home voyage, so the two of you go out there on the main deck and pum- mel each other until one cries enough, and let me hear no more of this.”

The men went out and fought each other toa finish. There was little science dis- played, but both could fight. _The steward begged to be excused at the end of half an hour, but the captain insisted that the fight be continued. The steward rose to the occasion and landed on the cook’s star- board ear, and the cook responded with a blow that knocked all the wind out of the steward’s sails. The steward failed to come to time and sat on the deck until he recovered his wind.

“Go forward,” said the captain to the

cook. The steward began to strip him- self.

“What are you doing?” demanced the captain.

“I'm going ashore,” said the steward surlily ; “I’ve had enough of this ship.”

“Have you? Well, take your clothes with you. I don’t want them. Put on that coat.”

The steward put on his coatand then went to the side. Capt. Leask did not in- terfere with him, and he sprang lightly to the rai! and took a header into the bay.

“Follow that man in a boat,” cried the captain quickly to the mate, “and let him swim till he can’t swim any more, then bring him baek.”

The orders were obeyed with alacrity and the boat followed the unfortunate steward until he appealed to the mate to take him back to the ship. He was taken back and landed on the ship a soaked, repentant, and cresfallen steward.

Drew on the Sultan.

A large operator and speculator of St. Louis, whose account with one friendly bank had often been temporarily over- drawn, wanted $10,000 once for a certain deal, his balance in bank at the time being less than 2100. The cashier suggested that he should draw upon someone not too near to St. Louis. Smith said he did not know whom to draw upon. “Oh, anyone,” said the obliging cashier, ‘‘as long as the party isfar enough away—that will give you time to turn around.” Smith drew at sight for $10,006 on the Sultan of Turkey. The draft was duly forwarded by the bank, reaching New York, whence it was sent to a London correspondent. It then came into the bands of the Rothschilds, who forwarded it to their Constantinople branch, where it was duly presented for payment to the Sultan's chamberlain, the latter bringing it to his highness. ‘“‘Who is this ‘John Smith?’ ” said the Sultan. “Don't know,” replied the chamberlain. “Do we owe him anything?” “No,” re- plied the other. “Then I'll not pay it,” replied his high mightiness. “One mo- ment, if I might advise,’ said the astute counselor; “this draft comes through the Rothschilds, with whom we are seekinga two-million loan. Would it be safe, under the circumstances, to dishonor it?’ “Pay it,’ said the Sultan; and it was paid, and no one was more astonished than John Smith, of St. Louis, and the quick-witted cashier.—San Francisco Argonaut.

Deaf and Dumb Mutes Wedded.

A curious wedding took place at Rom- ford Abbey Church, England, recently, both parties being deaf and dumb. A deaf and dumb clergyman was expected to officiate, but he was prevented by ill- ness from attending. This caused a little anxiety to the couple, and a search was made for a lawyer to give advice, so that the contract might be perfectly valid, but one could not be fourid. However, a clergyman, with the assistance of the bride’s brother, who acted as interpreter, proceeded with the ceremony. Prayer books were placed in the hands of the bride and bridegroom, and each made signs by pointing as the passages were read. Then, when responses were requir- ed to the questions the parts were submit- ted in writing, and read and duly signed and witnessed. These documents will be kept inthe abbey as mementoes of the wedding.

A HORRIBLE CONFESSION,

Life Was Nothing When It Stood in the Way of Train Wreckers.

A late special to the Milwaukee Wiscon- sin from Merrill, Wis., says : Wholesale murder and express robbery was the mot- ive that inspired the recent train wrecking on the “Soo” road. Two men, charged with the murder of the man who lost his life by their work, were given a prelimin- ary hearing here to-day and were held to trial, One of the prisoners has confessed and hi- -tory details the methods pursued to derail the through Minneapolis and Bos- ton limited near Heaffurd Junction on the night of etober 5th. In the crash Fire- man Cottrill was instantly killed and En- gineer James Dutch was seriously injured. Last Friday Hazelton signivied his desire to confess, His statement was taken be- fore Ed. Klutz, notary public, in the presence of Sheriff Paver, District Attor- ney Anderson and F.X. Holze. Hazel- ton said: “About dark we set to work with the purpose of wrecking a train so we could rob the express car. We ex- pected the wreck would be much worse than it was. We expected that the cars would be all thrown from the track, smashed up, and the passengers and train crew all killed, so that we would have no one to prevent us from accomplishigg our purpose. We thought mostly of the money we could get and not the losa of life. We began work west of the centre of the bridge. We cut all the stringers across the bridge and two sets of them at the ends and then sawed the piles or posts upon which they rested. We also cuta brace. After a train passed over we sawed theoutside post and the other brace, took the bolts out of the fishplates, pulled the spikes next to the fishplates, and re- moved the bolts from the fishplates at each end of the rail.

“We waited at the east end of the bridge until the west-bound passenger train came and broke through the bridge. We were on the south side of the track at the east end of the bridge when the crash came. Then we walked westward to the point where the wreck was. We heard sumeone crying, “Are you burt ” The

other man answered, “A little.” Then we heard someone crying out again. We did

aot want to hear more. Several men were coming toward us and that scared us. We walked away and went pretty near to the next town, on the Chicago, Mi)waukeennd St. Paul track, and went into a hay barn We remained there three days and thence started for Merrill.”

TAMING WILD ANIMALS

A PROFESSIONAL TAMER RELATES SOME OF HIS EXPERIENCES

With Lions, Tigers, Eiephants and Gears —Many Thrilling Adventures and Nar- row Escapes -Bitten by a Lion Travel. ing With a Circus.

I cannot remember when I have not been surrounded, so to speak, by wild animals, writes a veteran tamer, For the past thirty years I have been on the most inti mate terms with lions and tigers and pan- thers and leopards and bears and hyenas and elephants, and all sorts of other ani mals, I have trained them, eaten with them, slept with them, petted them and fought them by the hundreds in that time.

In all of my experience with animals | have only been bitten once, and that was owing to my own carelessness, A lioness bit me in the thigh one day when I was in her cage. I had my back to ber and was teasing a lion at the time. She fastened her teeth ja my thigh from be- hind, and the wound laid me up for three weeks) When she grabbed me I hit her on the nose, and she let go. Yes, she had tasted my blood, but that made no difference.

The talk about alion ora tiger becoming unmanageable after it tastes blood is non sense. I would as soon go into a cage all covered over with blood and let the an imals lick it off as any other way. Lions and tigers won’t attack aman in a cage, or out of it either, unless they are hungry I make no exception to this rate. Any man cw go into a cage of lions or tigers with out danger of being hurt if he only unde1 s‘ands the animals and is not afraid of them. They may be just caught—not two months out of the forest or jungle, and

yet they will not attack a man

There never was a lion or a tiger that was not afraid of aman. Tet them a and they never will attack aman so lor as he keeps his face towards them. I am speaking now of those that are wild. TT! trained ones will not even spring at their |

keeper from behind I can tea

est animal that was ever caged not to tack me under any circumstances, and I | won't take more than half an hour or so to | give the lesson.

IT had an exciting time once, however when I was with a circus and “moral nagerie."” I had forty cages of animals

under my charge. The cages we painted with scenes from the Bibk

the cage where I used to perform with t lions—there were four of them—there w

a picture of Daniel in the lions’ den. | used to be bound hand and foot and thrown into th cage with the four lion

One night one of the lions gnawed out of his cage and got in among the ele phants. The elephants became excited and the lion sprang on the back of a little elephant. The little elephant trumpeted and kneeled down, and that woke up the watchman. I was sent for. I took a pitchfork and jabbed at the lion, and he let go and sprang for a big elephant close by. The big elephant was called Queen Anne—they’ve changed her name to Em press and she is still in the business.

She grabbed the lion with her trunk and threw him from her about twenty feet. He fell in a heap of bones which had come from the meat with which the animals were fed. The bones were under the stairway leading to the hayloft and aman was asleep up there. I got into the hayloft from the outside of the building and fastened the trapdoor down. Then | went down and tackled the lion. 1 got a shifting-box close up to where he was and then I got into the box. It had a door on each side. 1 teased the lion and made him mad so that he came for me. I hada close shave getting out at one side while he got in at the other, but I succeeded and caged him.

The elephants are by far the most dan- gerous in the menagerie. They can never be depended on. One bad elephant is worse than adozen lions. They will try to kill their keepers when they get ugly, and when an elephant is thoroughly en raged he will stop at nothing. Every year all male elephants who have reached a certain age will have aspell of viciousness. This period keeps up for a month to «ix weeks, and at such times the elephant is always very dangerous. Lions and tigers will obey haif a dozen or more masters, but elephants will only obey one.

One man is sufficient to look out for a herd of elephants. Of course he has help- ers, but he alone is the master of the ele- rhants. The keeper, when an elephant is going to become vicious, prepares for it by chaining the big beast. The elephant Tip that was killed up in Central Park could have been kept in this way and would have got over his ugly fitin a short ‘ime The idea of killing an elephant at such times is absurd. No first-class elephant man would think of such a thing.

When I was with /nother circus they had a big elephant na fie Sampson. Samp son was nearly as big as Jumbo and was every bit as gentle. He used to carry a band on his back. Afterwards we made it a feature of the parade to have a whol lot of children—fifteen or more—on his hack. We used to advertise marriages | Ga Sampson’s back under the canvas

One day I noticed that signs of an ugly temper, and I 7 my mind that J would have up in a few days. On this d; teen children cn his bac! just got off and we tent when Sampson showed |

He got me the horse andI attracted Sampson's attention and made him take afterme. His fore feet were chained to gether loosely, and another chain ran from the middie of the foot-chain about his neck.
