(lire-s 'l‘rfoke. |the houses at a Oar
fiding Germ in the [Jen's Den.
“lines the exhibition of trained not
scale has been added to the programme
of the Barnum and Baliny show,” said
Mr. James A. Baltic: recently. “I [have
been frequently as as to the degree at
danger attendant upon ‘such perform.
ancea. it is the general belief all over
the world that .a man who goes into a
Jinn of wild carnivorous beasts takes his
sills in his hands, and that each time he
does so and escapee unharmed he has
won by a lucky chance. Some persons
believe that if the trainer who handles
the animals in their acts was to turn his
back upon them for a single instant they
would leap upon and devour him. Others
again believe that the lions and tigers
only await an opportunity for concerted
action to destroy their keepers, while
there are still others who declare that it
is only through the power of the human
eye that the beasts are held in subjection.
To all of these ,opinlons and beliefs, and
as a final answer to all questions on the
subject, I wish to state here and now
that there is no danger whatever to any
person entering a cage of wild beasts.
Snchn statement. however. will scarce
be believed without some further explar
nation and proof.
“It is a fact that many men have been
maimed, end some killed, by lions and
tigers in monagerios and ecological gar-
dens throughout tho world. but in every
case. l venture to say, the causes leading
to such accidents and deaths were of
their own making. Unmerited or too
seven punishment is the most frequent
cause. Nearly all animals, no matter
how smell and insignificant, will turn
and light when cornered and in fear of
their lives. A cat will make a desperate
and determined fight if so pluced that it
cannot get away from what it believes is
a desperate enemy. Just so with the
larger cat animals, and nearly all of the
accidents that have occurred have been
«used by the brutality of trainers,
who. having lost temper, have pursued
tooxtremos an animal that did not do
what it was ordered, or which did not
understand what was wanted of it.
Trainers of the present doy1 however.
have come to realise this, and sccideuts
are of rare occurrence; and I maintain
that any man or woman, an entire
stranger to the animals, can go in with
them, and in perfect safety. ‘
“A casein point comes to my mind. A
few years ago I employed nu innocent
sort of licrmnn to work in the mering-
crio, and one of the first tasks assigned
him was cleaning the lions’ den. instead
of taking an iron scraper and working
the bars as customary, he took a broom,
opened the iron dour, want in the cage,
and began to sever-p the flour. When a
lion gotin his way he wuuld punch It.
with the broom and tell it in German to
go away; and it did so. The mrsu re-
posted his experience every tiny, and
was never harmed. i now make this
positive statement—«that. in both the
handling and training of these animals
there is no more danger than attends the
training of a domestic animal. The
snarling and growling of the beasts is
no more indicative of a desire to claw
and devour than is expressed in the bark
or snarl oi a canine house pet. or the hiss
of asleck tubby when Its tail Is stepped
upon. The big brutes may growl and
crouch about their cages, look dun-
gerous, and net ferociously, and all that,
but i contend, and experience has
taught me that my belief is correct. that.
it is only through a desire to escape
from the men nether than to attack
him.
“it takes time and patience. more
than any one not in the business can
imagine, to perfect the training of these
animals, and every trainer has a method
of his own.
"I would further explain that. trnincd
animals will not perform the tricks
taught them unless the one is gwcn
them. Even trained horses, whicn nre
supposed to have great intelligence. will
only go through their performances
when the ringinuster supplies the cue,
whatever it may be. Sometimes it Is it
motion of the whip. at others a step
backward or forward, when instantly the
animal will respond.
"Now, all that is necessary forany one
to put through their performance any
kind of trnined animal or number of
them, is for him to know when to give
the proper one.
“i do not believe the animals know
one trainer from another. unless one has
been with them for a very long time, for
when some of my trainers havo been
taken sick, been discharged, or for other
causes left my service, the trained ani-
mal part of my show has not been inter-
rupted, but has gone on just the same, a
new man having been substituted; and
it is safe to say that the animals never
know the dlflerouce between the men. 1
have changed the men as often as five
times in a season, and one man has put
the beasts through their tricks quite as
well as another.
“Any person who will enter the arena
fearlessly and confidently, can take the
trainer’s whip and make the animals per-
form as well as a person who has handled
them for months, provided always he
knows what tricks the beasts are re
quired to do, and can supply the'requlred
ones.
"i am aware that this statement may
appear to most people extraordinary, hon
cause it is at variance with their precon-
ceived notions concerning the brutal
nature of all wild beasts; but lam firm
in my belief and have no hesitation in
making it public."

that he" has mellow with the passing
of the years, for Dr. McGlyuu Is cold
enough to have been a chaplain in the
Union Army in the Civil War—or it may
be that he is reconciled to his former
ecclesiastical enemies. Be thlsas it may.

council. from the highest to the lowest,
and then he fought them at Rome. Then
he fought lionseand the Pope and defied
them. lie fought his ens-rules openly
from the platform. through the press and
even from the pulpit of Protestant
churches. But his life was pure, and he
constantly declared that his quarrel was
not with the Roman Catholic faith, but
with men who sought to pervert it. it it
not likely that Dr. McGlynn has given

Dr. McGIynu is even a more striking

What inust have struck John Burns
when he came first to New York was the’
paucity of real labor leaders in N ew York, I
and for that matter in the country. In!
New York. with its hundreds of thou-l
sands of wage workers, there is not n'
single labor leader who holds the public
confidence. Not one. When Powderiyl
was at the head of the Knights of Labor ‘
he used, in past years. to visit New York
for the purpose of settling labor troubles, .
nndwse treated with respect byemployors.
Powderly was overthrown by lesser men,
and has dropped out of sight. What was
true of Powderl y has been truoof Samuel i
Gompers, the president of the American!
Federation of Labor. For years he has'
been one of the most important men in
New York. He stood straight against
the Socialists and Anarchists. and he had
the respect of the community. But the
time came when he temporized. And
that was a fatal mistake. The Socialistic
element took this as a sign of surrender.
and pushed harder. The conservative
clement looked on it as asign of weak-
ness, and would have no more of Gom—
pcrs. And that In his position. He may
retain a commanding position in the
American Federation of Labor, but the
general public confidence he has not, nor
has any other labor loader about New

Not long since an anniversary of great
interest to Methodists all over the conti-'
neuts of North and South America was
celebrated In New York. It was the one}
hundred and twenty‘first anniversary of1
the Intending of the first Methodist
church in America-the old John Street,
Church. To a lover of history there is"
much about this old church which makes
it intorceting. but to Christians it repre-
sents a temple not made With hands, but
eternal and everlasting us the skies. For
one hundred und'twrnIy-elght years the
Gospel has been preached on this spot,
and for many years the word of God has
been preached daily at noon to business
men, who crowded intothe famous noon-
day prayer meeting held in the basement
of the church. Standing as it does in .he
very heart of one of the busiestdmtricts
of New York, that of the wholesale jew-
olry and diamond trade, one could hsrdly _
think a corporal’s guard would be got to
attend the noonday meeting. so mad la
the surge for dollars round about. yet
every week day at noon sees the large
basement of the church filled with a
warm hearted crowd of worshippers who
come to the daily love feasts.
