receipts of this Fair Week were suf
Ieet to pay all but about $.1,00t or

with am debt of$4,00J0, exclusive of the

A AR WIT ENGLAND.
the Brutality and Bloody Avarice of
(kreat Britain Must be Ended."
The Monroe Do'trine Must
Be Vindicated.
A special to the New York Work from
Joncord, N. II., says: Over his own signa
:tre and under the caption "Our Coming
ar with England-A Prediction," Senator
handler has given out the following state
nent.
"W;ir between the United States and En
:land is inevitable. It will arise on account
:f British disregard of our direct interests.
t will aklso be fe:rced by British encroach
uts tpon other nations all over the wof'ld.
[t will b ; fought by us; having i ussia as a
European ally. As a war offensive on our
prt it may not happen within tweity years;
is a defensive war it may come sooner. and
vould be welcomed. A sure -esult will be
'he capture and permanent a.:quisitiomQt
Canada by the United States. England prd
poses to eize from the United States a per=
ion off Alaka. She is destroying indeident
overnments in all parts of the globe. She
Lreats American sentiment and renionstranco
ith insolauce and deflance.
"For the vindication of the Monroe
loetrine in the western hemisphere and the
proteetion of these in.lepeid-rt governments
a the eastern ie"misphere and the islands of
the oceans it is nee'sary that the United
itates should prepare for war with England.
It hd better come now than twenty years
from now. We ought to define our positio0'
and say that if it is not assented to we sholl
rdht th maintain it.
"It will take so: ne time to Irepare for ai
Dffensive war. l>ut a defensive war can come
ione too soon. L+t England 1:egiu. Russit
cill bo our sur- allay. She is the great
:bsolute mnonar":by and the United 5tates the
;reat rtp"ibli: of the world. The fornmer
aeeds and is entitled to a scapor: in a warsa
egion. of which England persistently el
leprives her. but sh." wants no more ter
:orv. The Unitel States wants only the
anrdwich islands and a foothold in the West
lndies. Together they can defy tho world.
Lhev mnust and will resralin the brutality
tudliloyil avarice of Great 3,ritaiu. Let
~his he underst iod at r,ne -tnd lbt 1.nghId
trike the first blow if she chooses. A millien
of men will overrun Caanada and England-1
ommercial ships will be swept frutm tile
:cean. Let England beg5'. We ought ',
egin if it is necessary to -..ve to Yenezueht

Ex-Senator J. N. Dol:h. who was for sev
'ral years a prominent member of the For

state Senate. in an address delivered at the
Channin: elub. Portland, Ore., on the fo'
rign policyr of the United tats said of the
Venezuelan tuestion: There are hut tio
courses for the L'uited States to pursue, ohi
of which is to a ,ando the Monroe doetrite
and to no longer protest against European
iggression, mnonarchical domination on this
hemisphere, and subn:.it to the htimiliatioi
3uch a course would bring upon us. Tb
other is to enforce our policy concerning af
fairs on this continent by protest. and if ne"
ssarv by intervention and the ultimate ar
bitration of the sword. We should also ex

The Death of a Democratic 5enator

night. At the lite election Mr. Bennett -u4
re-elected for a third term as a Democrat.
Gov. Brown will be called uipon to order a.
opecial election for Carroll county and upon.
the result of that election depends the political
omplexion of the next Senate of Maryland. I
With Mr. 1ennett-s vote that body stood 14
Democrats and 12 Itepublicans. hould the
Republicaus elect a successor to Mr. Bennett
the Senate would be a tic with Senator Brice,
of L-itirore, .eting in harmony with the
l,epubllcans upon all reform measures and
uniting with theni in eontlrming the Republi
cans Governor's nominations. Should the
Democrats win the situation will remain the
sme as prior to Mr. Bennett's death.
The regular Dejnocrats expected, because
of their control nf the Senate, to prevent
many changes p'rposed in the registration,
elction. and othier laws~ of the State as well
as ti offset many og the Republican Govern

"Ihave a tah'e,"
Said Arthur to Mabel,
"Three thousand years old;
And though it has stood
So long, 'tie as good
As the 1inest of gold!"
"Oh Arthur. your table,
I fear is a fable,
And you are its knight.
Of course It is round,
But where was it found?
Now tell,-honor bright !"
"Twas found, they say. Mabel,
In the great tc'..r of Babel:
And learned folks say
That wise old -ndoos
This table could use
Before E~;pt's day!"
"Why Arthur," said Mabel,
"Do show us the table
That's older th.n Egypt-as old as cres

"My table is square
Not round :-to befair,
But why should I show
That all the girls know,
This very old table, called 3ultiplica

HOW LIONS ABE TAXED.
According to Herr Hugenbeck, the
famous showman, the tamers of wild
beasts use no secret methods, and in
taming a lion they proceed very much
as a boy would with a dog.
If a lion is to !e taught to. ride on
horseback, it is uecessary to be very
patient at first and take a great deal
of time. If possibie, it is best to be
gin when he is young-less than a
year old.
If he was born in captivity, he is
already accustomed to see persons out
side his cage, but not inside. All his
instinets are still fierce.
'When the tamer first opens the cage
door, and steps inside, the youngster
at:on(e displays fear. He will proba
bly jinii at the trainer, snarling sav
agely ; for thit'is his way. of showing
alarm. The only course that can' be .
tir,ued is to beat him off with a light
_cb.. 'The first, lesson he learns is
ta it 1s not safe for him to attack
man. Sometimes in his excite.nt i
a k:fear he will-make several attacks,
n,e after the other. The - trainer
nmerely beats him of, and in the end
"the lion retires, snarling to the far
oiner of The cage.
The trainer does not follow him,
but sits down quietly on a box or a
chair, paying no particular attention
to him.
He sits there for an hour or two
hours at a stretch. This is done to
accustom the lion to the presence of a
man in his cage, and to wear out his
natural fear and fierceness.
This first lesson 1s repesated on the
following day, and is continued for a
week, or perhaps for a mouth.
Next the trainer takes a piece of
meat into the cage, and. waiting un
til the lion is hungry, offers it on the
n.i of a long stick. 'Very likely the
lion will not touch it at first, perhaps
no for nmany dlays; or, it he se-3ze~s
it, his manner will not be sucu as to
indcate thankfulness. B:n *y pa.
tiecoe and persistence he will Oc in
d :ed by-aud-by to come and take the
fo.d from the stick, and eventu.dly
froo thbe trainer's hand.
ot infreqnentiy he will try to bite
the hand that offers the meat; and
generally speaking. it is deemed a sig
nal victory when a young lion will
volunarily approach and take his
food from the keeper's -hand. Soon
after this he will allow the trainer to
stroke his head. Toward a stranger
he may exhibit quite as much ferocity
as at first.
The next step is to put a chain
round thc lion's neck and lead him
about the cage; and most trainers
consider it necessary to b.ind. a lion
down to the bottom of the cage once
or twice, in order to instill into his
naturally intractable mind the fact
that human bonds are irresistible, and
that chanius cannot be broken.
The various feats which go to mak
up .L modern performing lion's educa
tic' are afterward taken up one by
one and taught gradually. The only
"secrets" that Herr Hagenbeck knows'
ar endless patience and oft-repeated
lessons. Needless cruelty is always
avoided ; ueverthieless. it is necessary
tht lions~, as well as tigers, leopards
and most other vild beasts,. should
liold their keepeis in fear. .. Gentle
