MANICURE AT ZOO
JUNGLETHRILLER
One Fright Per Minute for Crowd
Watching Keeper.
GETS GASH IN HAND
/
Manicurists Tackle Lions and Tigers,
and the Nail Trimming Was Done
Without Mishap Until Big Caesar’s
Cage Was Reached.
Chicago.—lt is not at all an unpleas
ant sensation to walk into a manicure
shop, sit down opposite a pretty maid,
and let her dally with your fingertips
for a half hour or so. But to have
a rope lasso thrown about your stom
ach, be dragged thirty feet across a
cage, and then have about two inches
of each finger nail clipped off by a
pair of wire nippers—well, that's not
exactly an enjoyable toilette.
However, that is what happened to
two tigers and three lions at Lin
coln park the other day. The scene
was the new animal house at the park,
and Keeper Cy De Vry and seven as
sistants were in the role of manicur
ists.
The manicuring started shortly af
ter noon, Rajah, the big Bengal tiger,
having been selected as the first sub
ject. A stage was placed against the
outer part of the cage, and on this
Keeper De Vry took his place. In his
hands he held a long pole with a rope
loop at the end of it.
After all was in readiness Rajah
was driven from the outer to the inner
cage and the door was closed after
him.
Getting into adjoining cages, two of
the assistants, John Scullion and John
Hegenmiller, shoved a couple of rub
ber covered poles in Rajah's face.
Whereupon Rajah murmured.
But while Rajah was engaged in
this, Keeper De Vry pushed the pole
with the rope loop on it into the cage.
< After fifteen minutes of strenuous ex
ertion, he finally managed to get the
loop over Rajah’s head and shoulders.
It then took the combined efforts of
the seven assistants to drag the tiger
to the edge of the cage.
Here Rajah was again permitted to
vent his regal disgust on fresh poles,
while Keeper De Vry trimmed the
tiger's claw's with the wire nippers.
It was a job which required the
Tackled the Tiger.
utmost caution, for Rajah attempted
to do some manicuring himself, Keep
er Ik Vry’s hand being his object.
The nail trimming was done with
out mishap, however, and the mani
cure party proceeded to the next cage,
occupied by Kitty, Rajah’s better half.
She far from conducted herself like
a lady of caste, while her husband
stood by and roared encouragement
to her in her efforts to make a ban
quet of the manicurists. In this she
tailed to succeed.
The party next tackled the lions,
King being the first victim. He was
disposed of in about half an hour.
Then followed Emma Eames, ouce. the
sweetest singer in all India llondom.
She was a creature of artistic tem
perament, and it required about an
hour to get her.
The reel trouble came when Caesar 1
was reached. Everyone present looked j
like a Brutus to him, but he didn’t ■
need a Mark Antony to get people to !
lend their ears. They held their fin
gers over 'em most of the time. And,
before the Roman emperor’s toilet
was completed, there was a deep gash
on Keeper De Vry’s right hand.
The cut from Caesar’s claw was
more than an inch long, and when
Keeper De Vry had jerked his hand
from the cage several persons gasped
in fright and started for the doors.
This started a general exodus along
the outskirits of the crowd, more than
200 men, women and children running
outside. A panic was prevented only
by the coolness of several police offi
cers.
"1 wouldn’t do it again today for
a thousand dollars,” said Keeper De
Vry, after it was all over and his
hand had been properly bandaged.
"Whew!"
"It’s a necessary proceeding,
though. You see, there is no way that
a lion or tiger in captivity can keep
Its claws worn down, as happens when
they roam in the jungle. So we have
to clip them every once in a while.
But it’s a mighty tough job.”
Dog Rescues Child From Rat.
Wilkesbarre, Pa. —Attacked by a
big sewer rat, Helen Bond, four years

GIRL’S FAITHFUL DOG
PUTS HOBO TO ROUT
Puppy in Role of Hero When His
Mistress Is Attacked by
a Tramp.
Canal Dover, O. —Rebekah Root is
the comely seventeen-year-old daugh
ter of Jonathan Root, a farmer whc
lives north of town. Her consianl
companion in her farm duties is a
young bull pup she calls Raleigh. The
other day she went early to the wood
land near the edge of her father’s
farm to pick blackberries. The ripest
and juciest picking was along a fence
skirting the roadway, and here she
bobbed in and out, sometimes in
sight, often concealed entirely by the
bushes. Raleigh was with her, ol
course, but as she seemed to his dog
mind to loiter, he amused himself by

chasing birds and butterflies in the
undergrowth back of the fence.
While busily engaged in filling her
bucket with luscious black beauties,
she suddenly popped out in the road
way, where she was surprised at be
ing confronted by a man. He was
young, roughly dressed and of the
tramp species. Seeing she was alone
he accosted her roughly, asking w'hat
she had in her bucket. She pleasant
ly told him berries and offered him
some, but he grasped her in his arms
and began dragging her backward to
ward the bushes. She had just time
to scream “Raleigh” before his rude
hand closed over her mouth, but her
cry was enough.
The faithful pup, alive with instinct
of his kind, abandoned his merry
chase of winged playmates, and re
sponded almost instantly. As the dog
reached the open, and saw his mis
tress grappling with a hobo, he knew
just what to do. Leaping for the man’s
throat he all but landed, but the
tramp threw him off, at the same tim<
letting go his hold upon the girl
Then the flustered and disconcerted
young woman witnessed a pretty fight

LIFTS A TUG OUT OF WATER
Huge Whale Tries to Wreck Vessel,
Then Chases It for Half
>a Mile.
Baltimore, Md. —To have their ves
sel lifted three feet out of the water
and to be later chased over half a
mile by an 80-foot whale was the ex
perience of Capt. L. M. Smith ana crew
of the seagoing tug Defiance, which
reached port the other day from the
Virginia capes.
Captain Smith says the incident oc
curred at one o’clock in the afternoon,
while the tug was cruising between
Cape Henry and False cape, off the
Virginia seacoast.
“I was lying in my berth at the time
and Mate Jack Reese was at the
wheel,” said Captain Smith, “when all
of a eudden the bow of the tug rose
in the air and dropped with a plunge
and a terrific roll. When I reached
the deck Mate Reese was trying to
steady the vessel, which was still roll
ing, an& when he recovered his voice,
said that he had ran over a whale.
"Standing in the pilot house, we
watched the whale, which turned
around and followed the tug for at
least half a mile, then headed toward
the beach as if fatally hurt. While
the whale was following the tug it
lifted about two-thirds of its body out
of the water. The fin, huge flukes and
almost the entire head were in plain
view.”
Shark Attacks Tug.
New York. —With absolutely noth

i
■ Work of “Breaking” Them Immediate
-1 ly Begun—A Few Have Proved Too
Vicious, But Most of Them Will Be
Serviceable to Ride.
, Stamford, Mont. —The last herd of
, wild horses knotvn to be at large in
! Fergus county have been rounded up.
Riders for the "TJ. S.” and “2” outfit,
accompanied by State Stock Inspector
Kennon, succeeding in subduing the
band that has ranged in the lower Ju
dith river breaks for ten or twelve
years. The band consisted, all told, of
about fifty head, but only sixteen of
that number could be classified as
genuine wild horees.
The horses are practically all of
thoroughbred origin, being the off
spring of Hambletonian and Morgan
mares left on the range about twelve
years ago by a certain roundup. While
inbreeding had left its mark, the ani
mals were splendid specimens of their
type. Every summer attempts have
been made to round them up by am
bitious horse hunters, the long chases
and the constantly increasing vigilance
and timidity of the band tending to
keep them hardy and in running trim.
When finally captured the horses
proved to be smaller than supposed,
but every one was reduced to racing
flesh, and in the chase none of the
cow ponies could match them in speed.
The capture was effected by run
ning the band off its feet, this being
done by relays of cow ponies. After
the run had been arranged and the
point of approach determined upon,
the chase was commenced, and some
idea as to the desperation with which
the band attempted to evade capture
may be gathered from the fact that a
1 distance of 50 miles was traversed in
exactly three hours. A few of the less
hardy animals dropped out, but not
until they were exhausted.
The ground over which the chase
was made consisted of the breaks and
bad lands incident to the merging of
Arrow and Flat creeks at the point
where they enter the Missouri river,
and with the precarious footing thus af-

| forded many falls by the riders result
ed. Throughout the entire distance
the band followed a practice of racing
from one hilltop to another, evidently
endeavoring to secure an advantageous
viewpoint. Always in the lead was a
black stallion, and it is a matter of re
. gret that he did not survive the chase.
L He became entangled In a wire fence
and had to be shot.
, Although the band has been running
( over ten years, few if any of the ani
, mals were over seven years of age, the
explanation being that the older ones
were killed in the hunts of previous
years. One taken bore two big scars
’ from bullet wounds.
The chase was brought to a close at
! a corral!, into which all of the horses
were driven and roped. Ten seasoned
! riders were employed in the hunt. Sev
! eral of the cow ponies were made prac
' tically worthless from overexertion in
! the run.
! Immediately after the corralling had’
1 been accomplished the task of £reak
’ ing the wild horses was begun. While
a few proved too vicious to be con
• quered entirely, the majority will make
serviceable riding stock.

! TOO MUCH FOR THIS GOAT
[ Pennsylvania Senator's Pet Dies After
. Eating Record of Investigating
Committee Proceedings.
I
, Wilkesbarre, Pa. —Senator Sterling
R. Gatlin several months ago received
a goat from his friend, Dr. C. F.
Church. The senator, who is a lover
of animals, took the goat to his home
’ and made a pet of it. The other day
l Mr. 'Catlin was called away from his
’ stock room to answer the telephone.
I and when he returned, he found the
goat had devoured a lot of valuable
papers which were being kept on re
cord. In the lot were the Philadel
phia proceedings of the senatorial in
vestigating committee, of which Sen
? ator Catlin was the chairman.
The Luzerne county lawmaker was
5 much put out, but he did not get an

signs of sickness. Instead, he sent
for a veterinary doctor, but before
the latter arrived the goat died. Mr

15 MEDIEVAL CITY
Architecture in Danzig Is of the
Middle Ages.
West Prussian Town Is a Perfect
Architectural Type of Ancient
Period and Its Newest Buildings
Conform to This Character.
Berlin. —Danzig, West Prussia, is the
perfect architectural type of a me
dieval city, showing a historic integrity
with which the stormy fates of many
centuries have dealt most kindly. Even
its newest buildings are made to con
form to this character so as not to dis
turb the impression of unity. One feels
the pride which these energetic and
prosperous burghers of the thirteenth
and fourteenth century had in all the
appointments and arrangements of
their famous town.
We hear-of it first in 997, when a

Medieval Architecture.
Bohemian archbishop sailed from here
to preach to the heathen Prussians
farther east, a long time before the
more direct evangelistic methods of
the Teutonic order were applied. Its
political allegiance was often shifted,
and one feels sure that no merely ideal
considerations of loyalty were ever al
lowed to stand in the way of the inter
ests of its trade.
After the rise of the Teutonic order
Danzig became a part of its great ter
iltory, though reserving a large share
of self-government; it was at the same
time an independent member of the
powerful Hansa league—that supreme
example of civic and commercial pow
er. It joined its sister cities of the
league very effectively in fighting for
eign nations and pirates against its
commerce. When it tired of subjec
tion to the waning Teutonic order, it
entered into a sort of protectorate un
der the kings of Poland, who annexed
j it in 1569. Only as late as 1793 was it
I taken into ip is now the
j capital of the west Prussian region.
The town is very compact and prac
! tical in its plan, making an almost per
fect oval fretted by many waterways,
so as to have distinctly Venetian fea
tures. It reaches to the Vistula and is
traversed by several branches of the
River Motilau, while the little stream
Radaune makes a useful canal in a
long half circle through the city. One
large island is given up entirely to
grain elevators, affectionately named
‘‘Vesta,” “The Red One” and so on.
Opposite this island is the swarming
’Long bridge”—not a bridge at, all, but
a dock, where freights are landed,
and from which the smartest of steam
ers are leaving at all hours for adja
cent points on the Baltic, particularly
for the popular bathing beaches of
Zoppot and Hela. In the moving
panorama of this water front one gets
the best epitome of the life of the city.
All around its edge, Danzig is a
citadel rather than a town. Mountain
ous grass covered modern forts rise
on the west, and on the east the oval
is continuously fringed by radiating
bastions, completely bordered by deep
double moats filled from the waters of
the Mottlau. Each of these bastions
has its own personal name—“the
brown horse,” "the unicorn,” “Ger
trude,” “the rabbit,” “jumpout.”
LAND THAT WONT STAY PUT

Queer Freaks of Formation Noted by
a Forester In the State of
Washington.
Olympia, Wash. —State Forester E.
W. Ferris, who has just returned from
Skamanta county, reports peculiar
geologic changes in the country
around Stevenson.
“In this piece of state land alternate
risings and depressions have made the
trees all crisscross until they look
like they were trying to do a split,”
said the forester. “But in the country
in the vicinity there are even more
peculiar conditions.
“In one case a watercourse has been
raised suddenly so that one end of the
stream bed was left twenty feet in the
air In another a piece of a mountain,
trees and all, apparently has dropped
flat into the ground leaving a bare
cliff where there was a gradual slope.
There are deep cracks appearing in
the bedrock and in some cases of
these depressions boulders and trees
are split right through the middle, the
two parts being feet apart.
“A Mr. Bowles connected his house
with a water tank and in two years'
the house and tank “hunched” togeth
er so that it was necessary, three
times, to remove a length of pipe. J.
W. Shaw of Vancouver told me he
owned a lake in the neighborhood and
that on driving out to it one day he
scarcely recognized it because a big
island had appeared in the center.
Meantime an altogether new lake had
appeared a few miles aw r ay where
there never had been water before.”
The changes noticed have all oc
curred within the last two years.

Don’t neglect a bad back. If your back

Ignorant of His Own Language.
The Boston Americans were playing
the Nationals in the Bean City one aft
ernoon. Tris Speaker knocked out a
long fly that fell between right field
and center.
Danny Moeller, the speedy right
fielder of the Nationals, went after it,
crying out for the guidance of Milan
in center;
“I have it! I have it!”
As soon as Moeller had caught the
fly, a disgusted Boston fan remarked;
“That guy don’t even know his own
language. What he should have said
is: T’ve got it!’ I suppose he’s some
gink that’s trying to make out he’s
been to college.”
As a matter of fact Moeller not only
went to college, but graduated.—Pop
