A PAIR OF WOLVERINES.
THE STRANGE BEASTS IN THE
PHILADELPHIA ZOO.
The Terror of Trapper.—Some Natural
History—Fight Worse Than a Gristly
Ileal —How Till. Fair of ftare Animal.
Was Obtained ami How They I.tve.
Superintendent Brown, of the Zoologi
cal garden.is happy: Head Keejier Byrnes
is radiant and every under keeper reflects
the happiness and cheerfulness of their
superiors. A pair of wolverines has been
received at the garden and bid fair to live,
grow and otherwise conduct themselves
as well regulated wolverines should.
A visit to the garden brought forth a
most interesting talk from Head Keeper
Byrnes, which was supplemented by a
1 long and accurate scientific description
of theguloluseus, as this animal is called.
What is particularly gratifying is the
fact that this pair, now in possession of
the Philadelphia Zoological garden, is
the only pair known to be in captivity,
and for that matter no other garden has
even a single specimen.
SOME NATURAL HISTORY.
Tile animal belongs to the badger
family and is extremely shy and retiring
. in disposition. It is a habitant of the
entire northern hemisphere and is not
very plentiful in any locality. It has
been known to zoologists for a long time,
yet about it have been related more mar
velous tales than even of the salamander
or chameleon.
All over the world where it is found
native hunters tell incredible tales of its
ferocity and voracity. As far back as 1502
Olaf Maginus, a Scandinavian writer,
mentions the wolverine and tells how,
•after gorging itself with food, it will try
to squeeze itself between two closely
- growing trees to enable it to digest its
meals, after which it will again return
to devour more.
Every district nearly gives it a name
and it is indiscriminately called the In
dian devil, the glutton, the quick hatch,
the carcajou.
Linnaeus describes the animal under
the name of the one eyed glutton, and
the term one eyed is supposed to have
come from the fact that the only speci
•> men he ever saw or heard described was
blind in one eye.
The western trappers give the wol
verine a reputation for craftiness, cun
ning and general devilishness equaled by
no other animal. They claim that it
will fight worse than a grizzly bear. In
fact, a scout of Superintendent Brown's
described to him a fight between a wol
verine and a she grizzly with two hall
grown cubs, in which the wolverine
conquered its opponents, and declared
, that he witnessed the whole battle from
a tree.
Of course the shyness and suspicious
, ness of the animal has much to do with
these tales, but there is no doubt that it
is far more powerful than one would
snsiiect from its size, which is about that
of a half grown setter dog. It is a terror
to trappers from the way it will steal the
bait from their traps, and if caught will
fight desperately.
The little ones at the garden now have
Already proved their ferocity by chewing
the hands of two of the keepers who im
prudently handled tliem.
HOW THE GARDEN GOT THEM.
How the Zoo obtained the specimens
it now lias is a most interesting story.
A specimen was sent to the garden some
ten years ago which had been caught in
a trap in Idaho, and had its foot badly
torn.
This was never put on exhibition, as
it died about half an hour after its arri
val, but it was stuffed and is now on ex
hibition in tbe superintendent's private
■•room. Some six years ago as superin
tendent Brown was returning from a
hunting trip in the west, he stopped in
a furrier's in Chicago, where he saw a
wolverine's skin. One word led to an
other, and he made arrangements with
the firm that if they heard of any live
ones being captured to notify him.
The other day he received a telegram
stating that the father anil mother hav
ing both been shot he could obtain a pair
of young wolverines if he desired them.
To receive such news was to a man of
his energy and decision equivalent to
having them, so in answer to his prompt
reply expressing an earnest desire to get
them the young animals were sent on.
They arrived in excellent condition and
1 are now occupying com fort able quarters
near the aviary.
Their npjietite for small birds, the food
that is given them, has not as yet been
anywhere near satisfied, and they seem
to well deserve their popular name of
glutton. In appearance at the present
time they resemble a large skunk, hav
ing the same long body, long hair and
short legs.
They have a habit of sitting up on
their haunches and shading their eyes
, with one paw whenever anything at-
I tracts their attention.
I Head Keeper Byrnes says that though
■ they hnven't been with him long enough
to notice their habits correctly, yet lie
don't believe they are half as bad as they
are said to be. "Though," he added,
"they did nearly chew up the hand of a
careless keeper."
He is confident that he will bo able to
raise them successfully, and even now
trots around to their cage and gazes
affectionately at the pets every ten
minutes or so.
Superintendent Brown explained their
habits and told many tales he had heard
about these beasts and seemed delighted
at having found specimens of an animal
no other zoological garden has, or prob
ably will he able to get for some rime to
come.—Philadelphia Times.

Annoyances of tbe Openhawled.
Frequently I have expressed my pity
for rich people. My pity was renewed
when a gentleman said to me: "My wife
and our children are to go abroad next
week." "You've only just got back
from Europe." I said byway of surprise
and interrogation. "Yes, but my wife
is just killing Every morning
before we sit down to breakfast there
are from five to a dozen men and women
at the house, telling pitiful stories of
rent overdue, of hunger, and what not.
My wife can't turn them away with
'No': she has neither strength nor time
to iuv 'stigate each aice, and she usu
ally gives them \vha.t tliiy want.
"Put she knows that such giving is
bad. She is so hemmed in by this circle
of beggars that she must go to Europe.
It's prelty hard." he added with a sigh;
"WJ.'", . . : separated but little since
we v. ■ • -ied: but I don't see any
other V ,. v i tie.it to close the house, and
for the; . to ■ m to Dresden, and for me
to go to boarding."
I wanted to tell the generous man thut
if he r.ti.l Mrs. Opt uhand would send the
mendicants to me. 1 would investigate
and report to them, that I could save
them several thousand dollars a year and
the necessity of going over the ocean to
escape the cry of poverty, but I thought
it would seem impertinent, and 1 de
sisted. But Mr. and Mrs. Opehand
ought to have strength of will as well as
generosity of heart. I know that 6uch
generous and unwise people do more to
promote poverty than many a secretary
of some associated charities can do to
cure poverty.—Chicago Advance
Not to Be Outdone.
Hospitality is the crowning virtue of
the Turk. He would scorn to bethought
behindhand in this respect when com
pared with any other race of men. Mr.
Barkley tells a story in his "Bulgaria
Before the War" which proves that the
Turk will not allow himself to be out
done even by any of his countrymen.
A friend of mine was one day shoot
ing in the vineyards at Rustchuk, when
he was stopped by an old Turk and told
that trespassers were not allowed, and
that he must clear off at once.
My friend turned to comply, but be
fore leaving said in Turkish, "What
manner of man are you? I have shot in
these vineyards for years without a word
being said tome, and today I have passed
over many miles and spoken to many
owners of vineyards, and you are the
only one who has raised the slightest ob
jection. The vineyard is yours, and you
liave the right to object to my being
here, so I shall leave your ground, but 1
never received such treatment from an
Osmatili before."
The Turk, who, up to this time, had
been squatting on the ground, jumped
up, and, with a marvelous display of en
ergy, began protesting.
"My good fellow," he cried, "you shall
not say so! Others have shown yon hos
pitality, and 1 will not be behind them.
Go where you like, eat what yon like,
carry away all you like, and all the vine
yard is yours to do as you like with."
The Englishman thanked him, and it
ended in the two squatting down and
having a feast on grapes together.
Are Women ('a re leas of Money?
No woman, at least in America, has
any such talent as a man has for spend
ing money. .She spends for what she
believes to be beauty—for raiment,
books, jewels, decoration, furniture, pic
tures. viarbles—rarely for what does her
serious harm. He spends most for his
vices, for the things that hurt him great
ly. He is apt to speculate, to bring evil
to others from his love of pleasure or of
gain.
He will get rid of more money in a
month than she would in years. She
would, however ignorant of it, be ap
palled by the sums he dissipates. She is
constitutionally conservative; big state
ments of any sort are likely to alarm
her. Unless desperate or frenzied, she
invariably stops short of extremes. She
trembles and turns pale where he, in the
flush of egotism, moves undisturbed.
Nearly all the talk of woman's care
lessness of money is really idle. The
opinion cannot he sustained. It is main
ly the echo of misapprehension. Where
she is even partially enlightened on the
subject, she is prone to be very cautious
in its use. Her temperamental tendency
is totbeo)" rate of carelessness. —Junius
Henri Browne in Ladies' Home Journal.
With One Arm.
"On the whole," said the one armed
man, reflectively, "I am glad I lost my
arm, even if I don't get a pension for it.
I was never in any war in my life. 1
could have gone, but I did not want to
do it. Isn't that good reason enough?
".Still, I am not sorry I lost my arm.
It saves me cuffs and sleeves and lots of
other things you fellows have to buy.
Do I miss it? Yes. But not so much as
you would think. I have got used to do
ing without it, and lam quite happy. I
was single when I lost my arm. I had
just been jilted by a girl. After I got
carried through tho mill and maimed I
paid court to another girl, and she took
me as I was. Since then we have made
money, and had eight healthy children."
As he spoke he reached to the top of
the door and lifted himself up eight
times in succession. Then lie held by
his little linger for two minutes and a
half. There is not one man in 10,000
with two hands who can do that.—Bos
ton Globe.
A Problem.
A correspondent is going crazy over
this problem:
"Did you go to the circus?" some one
inquired of him on Thursday morning.
"No," he replied; "there was too much
of a crowd and I hate crowds. If only
one-third of tho peoplo went that go
now I'd go myself."
"Yes," said tbe other man, "but did it
never occur to you that the majority are
like you are, and if only one-third as
many went as go now, ten times as
many would go as go now? See?"
He didn't exactly see, but he caught a
faint glimmer, and trying to see is what
is now unsettling his mental balance.—

LIVING IN THE COUNTRY.
The PlrHtftirrtt of Kcepliif; M Home and m
Cow in tlie Doorvurd. .
"I'll tell you," said the doctor, "we'll
buy a cow and make our own butter!
And we'll fence in the adjoining lot and
keep a pony for the children! What's
the use of living in the country if yon
don't keep a cow or a horse?"
To this outburst there came no answer
save a maniac smile, for the doctor's
only audience was a feeble minded wo
man, whom sad experience in suburban
life Lad bereft of hope.
Perhaps she remembered the slow
alienation of neighborly affection
brought about by marauding fowls, und
also those lurid months during which a
blithe Newfoundland pnp had devastated
the land, but if so she made no sign. A
long experience with men had taught
this gentle being that the only way to
get the best of men and hens is to appear
to give them their own way in the start,
so she smiled a slow, weird smile and
consented to the insertion of an adver
tisement in the county paper for a su
perior cow and a trac table pony.
Scarcely a week had flitted by when
one day there walked into the back yard
a strange cavalcade. First came a de
jected dwarf of a steed, whose head had
evidently been designed for a Normandy
draught horse, but whose legs had been
sawed off short in a dream. His bust
measure was all right, but he presented
the general appearance of an oak that
had started with the best of intentions
from an acorn, but had suddenly changed
its mind and decided to become a head
of lettuce. There was a masterful look
in his eye that bespoke decision and
force, and the way his fore shortened
members touched the ground was indic
ative of business. Behind the horse
came a wrecked cow. I put it mildly
when I say a wrecked cow, for she had
no horns, no tail and scarcely any hair.
She hud bones, however, and they show
ed and seemed to creak in the morning
air like a week's washing frozen on the
line. Back of the horse and cow strode
a gigantic boy. He was evidently young,
for he wore knickerbockers, but he was
very large and powerful. I soon discov
ered he was a Swede, and neither spoke
nor understood the language of the land
of his adoption. He seemed resolved to
leave the horse and cow. In vain 1
gesticulated, danced, expostulated. Sad
ly, yet resolutely, he cast off the leading
strings from the two beasts and turned
them loose ia my dooryard. I followed
him to the corner, and if I had hud a
shotgun 1 should probably have stained
my innocent soul with boyslaughter, but
he paid no attention to me and retro d
his steps to the unknown country from
whence he and his living menagerie had
come.
I went home in tears and found the
horse had regained his spirits and was
chasing the cow around the yard. When
he got tired of that he began to luck at
the hired girl, who had gone out to the
rescue of the < ow, frightening tho poor
girl so badly that she fell in a fit upon
the door sill, over which I dragged her
at the risk of my own life.
After a time the horse wearied of his
surroundings and started off at at uaring
run down street, leaping a five barred
gate as easily as a wind blown feather
skims the air. Where he went I know
not, for my eyes have never rested upon
him since he disappeared in the direc
tion of the lake bluff, but I am told that
after a night's wandering he was taken
up and returned to his owner.
Turning from the window where I had
stood spellbound with delight t-o see the
gentle beast vault through the crowd of
helpless school children on their way to
school, I turned my attention to the
hired girl and the cow. They both
seemed delirious. The former moaned
something about taking the first train to
town, and the latter was rubbing herself
against the side of the house in away
that made the windows rattle. 1 went
out and gave the poor thing a basin of
water, which she absorbed with one
loud inhalation and seemed anxious for
more. The better part of the morning
was spent in humanitarian service. Ido
not think the poor animal had tasted
food since tho preceding .Tnne. When
the doctor came home at night he found
the hired girl gone forever and the cow
asleep on tho garden walk like an emaci
ated watchdog on guard.
"Who brought that rack of bones
here?" he asked.
I wanted to say who I thought had a
direct hand in it, but the children stood
around too near, so I contented. myself
with a few gentle words, descriptive of
the boy, the goblin pony and the cow.
Next morning the large and muscular
boy came back and evidently wanted
money. The doctor gave him the cow,
and chased him upstreet with a hatchet,
but that did not bring back the hired
girl nor restore the lightness of heart of
which such experiences are likely to rot
an emotional nature. —Chicago Herald.

"A few weeks ago," says a man re

person was taken suddenly ill and died
in a few days, and to my friend were in

When we went together to the under
taker's to select a casket, one particularly
pleased him, but there was some reason
why it did not commend itself to him
for his friend. Having finally chosen
one, he ordered it sent up; 'but,' said he
to me, as lie gave the order, 'when you
order one for me choose that other one.'
We left the establishment and separated.
So far as either of us knew he was in
perfect health, but in two hours from
that time I was back at the undertaker's
and ordered that very coffin to be* sent
