FOOD FOR ANIMALS. tATTKHING HORSES FOB THE LIONS, TIGERS AND PANTHERS AT THE ZOO [Philadelphia Times.] Visitors to th<« Zoological Gardens have noticed down in the lower end of the grounds, a little to the right of the place where the polar bears are kept, a line of low, rambliug buildings built against the fence which separates the grounds from a long strip of land lying between the Gardens and the New York branch of the Pennsylvania Railroad. The last of these buildings is a good deal better than the rest, being "a tall, close, frame shanty of ?ine boards aDd having a door to it 'ha others, smaller, more uneven and without any doors, are nothing more than mere sheds or stalls. Always in front of them will be seen a pile of clover hay, with half a dozen, more or less, sorry-looking horses, the sole oc cupants of the sheds, feeding thereon. Jin inspection of these animals will usually show a plethora of defects iu the way of damaged eyes or spavined joints or broken wind, all, in the ma jority of instances, being the regular accompaniments of old age and being but another way of describing a horse broken down by weight of years and past his stage of usefulness. Occa sionally younger animals may be seen in the stalls, but these are also suffer ing from some affliction of body or limb and stand on the same footing as the rest. FOOD FOR THE BEASTS. These horses, once they get under the above described sheds, have all one common destiny—they are to be killed and dressed as food for the ani mals of the Zoological Garden. The amount of food consumed daily by the animals, large and small, is no little. The chief meat-eating animals are the lions, tigers, leopards, pumas and hyenas. Altogether they consume about 175 pounds of horse meat a day. Four horses a week is the usual aver age in keeping up the supply of these animals alone. Next in point of heavy feeding come the elephants. Their chief food is hay, of which it takes about four times as much to keep an elephant as it does to keep a horse, th ■ elephant eating about 100 pounds of hay every twenty-four hours. And in order to keep up his appetite the hay must be the best going, being invaria bly timothy of the best grade. Other animals that eat hay are the giraffes, the camels, the deer, zebra and differ ent animals of the cattle species. Most all these are fed on what is known as mixed bay, timothy and clover, which is about twenty per cent, cheaper than the timothy alone. Two wagon loads of each per week is about the amount used. Each wagon load is supposed to contain 'O,OOO weight, or a ton «nd a half. The price for timothy is about S2O per ton, which makes the three tons equal to s<to. The mixed hav costs in the neighborhood of $lB a ton, thus making the weekly cost of that necessary supply $54, which, added to the S6O, gives the weekly cost of bay alone in the sum of. sl l4. As to the cost of the horse meat for the other animals, this is not so much as might be imagined. The horses are usually purchased at the hor.se market by one of the employes at the Gardens, who has all such work in charge. The horses, as above stated, are usually animals which have be come superannuated and useless. The average price paid per head is about five dollars. As four horses per &eek suffice, the cost for horse meat foots up to about twenty dollars u week. The lions, tigers, leopards and pumas are not the only animals that are fed on horse meat. The wolves, foxes, prairie dogs, monkeys and black bears also come in for their share of the supplies, being fed almost altogether on this kind of meat. It is regarded as sin gular that these animals—lions, t'gers and leopards—should make no distinc tion between horse meat and beef, albeit it is a point decidedly in favor with the pocket-books of the corpora tors of the Gardens. For four years preceding their discovery that the ani mals would eat horse meat as well as beef they kept feeding them on the latter. Two years ago it was found that they would eat the flesh of horses as quick as that of cows, and provision was made accordingly. Since then the society has been practicing judicious economy by feeding the animals on horse meat altogether, and they save about fifty per cent The cost of feeding the lions, tigers, leopards and pumas as stated is about S2O a week. Add to this the sll4, cost of feeding the larger animals, elephants, giraffes and others, and the cost is $134. This does not nearly represent all the animals fed in the garden, nor does it come near being the chief item of cost. There are a hundred and one other creatures, re quiring, in many cases, much more delicate and costly food. The sea lions have to be fed on fish, usually fresh and salt mackerel, each animal taking twelve or fifteen to each meal twice a day, and consuming altogether 100 pounds of fish daily. Next in point of delicate livers come the polar bears, whose regular diet is bread soaked in milk, with fisb now and then for a change. The black bears are also given bread, 100 pounds being used daily. Vegetables of almost ev ery sort are fed liberally to the differ ent animals—cabbage, potatoes, car rots, onions and turnips. The elephants are great cabbage eaters, in addition to their standard diet, hay. The giraffes, singularly enough, are great onion eaters, while the deer and goats and animals of the cow species eat carrots, turnips and potatoes. Bran, oats and corn are also liberally distributed mostly once or twice a week—among the hay-eating animals. The most delicate" and expensive feeder in the place perhaps is the ourang-outang, which gets beef, potatoes, bread and honey. As there is only one in the collection at present, the cost of keep ing this grinning satire on the human species Is not multiplied. Another delicacy which must not be omitted in the diet of the polar bears is fish oil, of which they get several supplies a week. After the hay the oats is per haps the next chief source of expense in the way of animal food. As for the fowls, the larger ones are fed on corn, while the small birds are fed on canary seed, and all of them now and then get a small piece of meat.. The cost of feeding the animals alone foots up to about SIOO a day. All the horses that go to supply the meat eating animals are killed on the ground, in the small slaughter house that stands at the lower end of the row of gbecU iu tbe lower part of tiie HO IV HE REFORMED. [Detroit Free Press.] A few weeks ago, while several cit izens of Detroit were surrounding a hot store in a Griswold street tobacco store, in came a stranger who had been on a "big drunk." His eves were red, his back all mud, his clothes rag ged and his General appearance was that of a bard-up and played-out old soaker. One of the group was telling a yarn about a hog, and he was going on with his story when the old fellow in terrupted : "Scuse me, sir, but I'm an old soaker who wants to reform." "Well, as I was saving," continued the storv teller, after a glance at the man, "that hog was about forty rods away when 1 first saw him. 1 got my gun " "Say interrupted the drunkard, "isn t there somebody hero who wants to help relorm me ?" "You go out!" replied one of the men. "I won't do it! I'm an old drunkard, and I want some one to take ine by the hand and hope I'll reform.' "Go on with the hog story," put in one of the group. "You shan't do it !" exclaimed the drunkard "I want some one to feel sad because I drink all my earnings and misuse my family." "No one here cares how much you drink or how soon you go under ground I" said one of the men. "You don't, eh ? Don't any of you want to give me advice ?" "No, sir!" "Don't you feel sorry because I am degrading my brilliant intellect?" "Brilliant bosh? You never knew anything anyhow!" "Won't any man pity my family ?" "No, sir!.' "Nor shed one tear over my do graded condition ?" "Not a shed ! You'd better be going —we want to hear a hog story." "Had you rather hear a hog story than to try to save me ?" "You bet we had !" "Well, now, you heard-hearted and selfish-tuinded old liars, 1 know I'm worth more than any hog', and I'll prove it, too. If you won't save myself —hanged if I don't. Yes, sir, I'll keep sober from this day on, and I'll show you whether I'm of more account than any of yonr hog stories or not ? You needn't pity me nor talk with me—l can run my own grocery !" No man in Detroit has led a more sober and industrious life since that day, and there is every reason to be lieve that he will stick. SHE KNEW ALL ABOUT IT. TDetroit Press.l Just about midnight the other night, four men in a Detroit saloon sat look ing at a fifth. The fifth was drunker than the other four. While all men were created equal, s< me men get drunk twice as fast as others. "It will never no to send him home in this condition," said one of the four after a long silence. "No, it would break bis wife's heart," added a second. "But we can't leave him here, and if we turn him out the police will run him in," observed the third. "I have been thinking," mused tbe fourth "He has a telephone in his house. Here is one here. I will make it my painful duty to inform his waiting and anxious wife that he won't be home to-night." He went to the telephone, got her call, and began : "Mrs. Blank. I desire to communi cate with you regarding your husband." "Well, go ahead." "He is down town here." "I know that much." "In descending the stairs leading from the lodge room he fell and sprained his ankle." "Are yon sure it wasn't his neck ?" she asked. "It is not a serious sprain, but we think it better to let him lie on the sofa in the ante-room until morning. Rest assured that he will have the best of care. We are doing ev—." "Say ! broke in a sharp voice. "You bundle him into a wagon and drive him up here, where I can keep him hidden -until that drunk goes off! won't be sober before to-morrow night!" "My dear mad ." "Get out! If he's sleepy drunk put water 011 his head! That's the way I always do." "Will you let me inform ,vou that "No, sir, I won't. Throw water on his head, get him into some vehicle and rattle him up here, for it's most midnight now and it will take me half an hour to get his boots off and push him up stars! Remember—pour water on his head and yell fire' in his ear!" TIIE IRISHMAN AND THE BEAR.— An Irishman of Montana was working a placer mine, a few miles from Bear Gulch, and visited that place one day to get his tools sharpened. Just as he was about to start back some one told him that if he would go home by way of Sour Krout Gulch he would not miss his way, and would save several miles of walking. Pat started out, but after traveling several miles the sun was almost down, and he had seen nothing that looked familliar. At last he made up his mind that he was lost, and, to use his own words, feared he "would be robbed and numbered en tirely all alone." While he was in I his state of mind he spied a cinnamon l»ear on the side of the mountain, and was almost ready to fall to the ground with fright. Recovering his self-pos session a little he said: "I thought it wouldn't do to let the hear think I was afraid of him, and concluded I might intimidate him by making him think that there were several of me So, walking a little faster. I called out as loud as iver I could, "Mike! Oi say, Mike, hould on till I catch up wid ye and the rest o' the b'ys.' When the bear heard that he walked away and said not a word.''— Helena Independ ent. CONGRESSMAN MITCHELL, of the Sixteenth district, sent a letter to the Tioga county Republican meeting last week, in which he declared his adher ence to the principle of each district choosing and instructing its delegates to the National Convention, and said : "I have pretty fair means of knowing what is the sentiment of the district, and believe it to be very strongly in favor ol James G Blaine for President.

TUB BOSS Fox S rouy.—James Pine, a veteran fox hunter, in Marblehead, N. Y., affirms that one day while be was out hunting he shot a fine fox and as he supposed the animal drop ped dead. He went to him and tak ing out h's jack-knife commenced to to take off the pelt, so he wouldn't have to carry the carcass home with him. He skinned it down and then pulled it over and gave it a yank in order to free it from the body, when the skin came of, and to the great and inexpressible astonishment of the hun ter, the fox jumped up and ran at full speed, the hunter being unable in his surprise to raise his gun to shoot him. The dogs, however, were after him in a jiffy, and the remarkable sight of a fox without his pelt, scooting along over the crust with three hounds yelp ing on his track, was then seen. The fox being in light inarching order soon distanced the dogs and in ten minutes was out of sight. A few days after, the man was out hunting again for foxes. The hounds run one pretty lively and he passed through a ravine, and it. being a peculiarity of the fox that when he goes through a ravine he will come back to it again, no matter how wide the circuit may be, the bun posted himself at this pla-.-e and waited until he heard the bay of the hounds following the track up to near .where he stood. He was on the qui vive and got a glimps of an animal running at a great speed that had all the resem blance to a fox, only its coat seemed a glossy white. The hunter never thought of the skinned fox that ran away the day before, but supposed the white fur would be a great rarity iu the market, so be fired, killing the ani mal and with great expectations hur ried up to where he lay, aud there, lo! and behold, found instead of a while furred fox the one that he had skinned the day befcre, the white flesh looking like white fur in the sunlight. Seem ingly the fox had not minded the lack ot his skin very much, and the fle>h , had become by "exposure in the air a!- moat tu tiro oouoitftuacy U' lottUiw. J i BANKS.
