Seventy miles from the shore is San
Nicolas Island, the sixth of the group
that cluster around the bay of Santa
Barbara, California. It is celebrated
for. having been the residence for
eighteen years of “The Lost Woman of
San Nicolas.” As her name is famous
and as her story has been told in ro
mance, I will give the bare facts about
her as 1 found them to be without any
added ornament, and leave the Action
to the pen of the novelist.
The Island of San Nicolas was once
densely: populated. This Is attested
by the skulls and bones and other evi
dences of hmnan abode that are found
there. The Alaska Indians frequently
visited the island to hunt for the furs
of the sea otter. They took their _ ... ... . _ . . ,

New Orleans, May 19.—The World’s
Exposition will be closed May 31.
Friends of the exposition have raised
$85,000 by subscription to tUeet the ex
pense of carrying it over until next
November, when it will be reopened,.
Superintendent Jeffery, of the Illinois
Central Railroad, has telegraphed that
the railroads-and car companies reach
ing New Orleans will subscriBe $100,-
-000 towards the expense of reopening
the exposition next winter. The citi
zens’committee is still receiving sub
scriptions, and. the sum required will
be made up. The board of manage
ment has paid off 50 per cent, of its
indebtedness, and believes that the
exposition can be reopened next win

MAJ. BL'KKE’s RESIGNATION.
Director General Burke to-day trans
ferred to the Finance Committee of the
exposition all the claims of foreign

The residents of the block of brown-
stone houses on the north side of Nine
ty-second street, from Central Park to
Ninth avenue, are up in arms about,
an “outrage” perpetrated by a new
comer in their midst, a physician, who
has wantonly, so say she neighbors,
sacrificed twenty-seven lives to his
brutal passion, endangered nine lives
more and threatened many others,
'the horrible details of the affair have
completely superseded the gossip about
spring mantles and bonnets and are
told again and again with new tears
for the victims and new threats against
the malefactor.
Most of the people in the block have
always been in the habit of keeping
pet animals. They loved «*ats and their

It is saiij that the Republican ticket

This will suit them. The Democrats,
on the other hand, will put Victory in

The voters of Taylor county will

Something akin to old revolutionary
scenes took place in Paris on the an
niversary of the overthrow of the com
mune. There wfis a fight between the
communists, on the one hand, and the
police and soldiers, on the other, hi
which it is claimed that five men were
killed and eighty were wounded. A
riot in Paris is apt to amount to some
thing. The French fight fiercely in
times of peace.
A United States citizen who had
been imprisoned eleven months in a.
Mexican jail has escaped and is on his
way to Washington City, to lay his
grievances before the State Depart

Government something to make the
matter all right. Democratic foreign
policy is an able-bodied institution,
with decidedly pugilistic-tendencies.
Foreign jails have been entirely too
free for citizens of 1 this country, dur
ing the past twenty years.
habitant, as it was supposed, a white
Indian woman begged for the privilege
of going ashore for her child, which
she had accidentally left. She was
gone a long time in a fruitless search
for her offspring. The wind blew a
gale, the water was shallow, there was
no one who was seeking the lost one.
They set sail, intending to return for
the lost womau of San Nicolas, hut the
boat becoming unseaworthy she was
left to her fate.' It was generally
known that there was a woman aban
doned on the island, but no attempt
was made for her deliverance.
As the world soon forgets, so
the woman of San Nicolas
was forgotten and the years
passed away. After a lapse of sixteen
years a man who lauded on the island
found that it was inhabited by some
one. The footprints of a human being
sunk deep in the ground was seen.
The hardness of the ground was an in
dication that the}' had been made a
long time. From their size they evi
dently belonged to a woman. Circu
lar iiiclo.sures made of brush, six or
seven feet through, were seen, where
some one had lived.. Near the huts
were sticks driven in the ground and
dried blubber hanging oh them, thus
prepared for food.
In 1852 San Nicolas was visited
again and another hunt was made for
the long-lost woman. The huts were
seen that had been seen l>efore, hut the
old blubber had been taken away and
new food of the kind hung in its place.
Wild dogs were found which ran away
at the approach of civilized man. In a
basket covered with seal skins that
they found iu a bush-heap was a dress
made of shag skins, cut iu square
pieces, a rope made of sinew and sev
eral smaller articles, such as fish-hooks
and bone needles. The discoverers of
these proofs that there lived on that
island a human being‘scattered them
on the ground, and on their return
they found them gathered together
and placed in the basket again.
The Catholic fathers of the “Old
mission,” the foremost in every good
word and work, offered a reward to
anyone who would find the lost wo
man, and a third effort was made in
1853 to discover the prodigal aliout
whom there was such a mystery and
in whom the world of this coast
was beginning to take an interest.
Fresh tracks of the woman were
found. They belonged to very
small feet, and were Tike those that
were seen in the first attempt to find
the woman. Huts made of whale ribs
and covered with brush were discov
ered. At length an object was seen in
the distance that appeared to be mov
ing. Going towards it they saw the
woman that for eighteen years had
reigned queen of San Nicolas, her sub
jects being the wild animals, her robe
a dress of bird skins she had made and
her throne the hut she had built. She
was seated in au enclosure, so that
only her head and shoulders could l>e
seen. Two or three dogs were about
her that disappeared at the command
of their sovereign. She was seated on
some grass that covered the ground
and served her as a bed. Her dress
was neatly made of bird skins, extend
ing to her ankles, the feathers of
which pointed downward. Her head
was covered with a thick mat of yel
lowish brown hair and her shoulders
were bare. She was occupied in strip
ping blubber from a piece of sealskin
which she held across her knee aud
using for that purpose a knife made of
an iron hoop. In her hut was a fire
beside which she sat talking to herself
and, occasionally shading her eyes
with her hand, looked at tlie men that
were in search of her. She received
them with much courtesy, bowing and
smiling anil showing that this lost child
of nature hail much of the politeness of
a true woman. She took some roots
in the bag, roasting them in tlie fire
anil gave them to the men to eat. She
lathered up all her food, which was
ier chief concern, owing to the famines
she had experienced, washed herself
at the spring, and followed the men
cheerfully to tte boat. On being taken
to Santa Barbara she manifested great
delight on seeing the sights of civiliza
tion. She became a universal favorite
and was presented with many gifts.
Passengers on the Panama steamer
that landed there all wanted to see the
lost woman of San Nicolas. She related
by sigus her experience on the island,
as she spoke a language that none
of the Indians knew and none of the
Spanish fathers, versed in Indian dia
lects, could understand. Civilization,
which prolongs the life of some, short
ened that of the woman of San Nico
las. An excessive love of fruit led to
her death in Santa Barbara at the age
of 50. She was buried with the hon
ors of the Catholic church by the
Franciscan fathers, and her dress and
trinkets were sent to Rome and placed
in that receptacle of the world’s curi
osity.
Tl;e story of the lost woman of San
Nicolas will always remain a wonder
ment. Her ingenuity is seen in the
pails she made of grass, made to hold
water by smearing them with melted
asphaltum, aud iu her bird-skin dresses,
her bone needles, her knife of iron
hoop and the language she invented
and spoke. It is inexplicable to all
who have learned her story how a
woman could live eighteen years on an
island around which the waves were
beating a requiem to hopa, getting her
food and cooking it without even those
facilities which are common to tlie
savage, and making her dresses neatly
without the aid of needles except what
she carved out of lione. She laid aside
one dress for eighteen years, to be
worn when the white meu should come,
of which she bail a presentiment. She
built her own house protected herself
from the cold, gained supreme control
over the wild beasts about her and pre
served her love for men and women for
well nigh two decades of human life
alone iu the wild. With no previous
knowledge of civilization, solitude ap
peared to have educated her for it. An
ordinary woman would have perished
with despondency in such a desolate,
hungry, naked shelterless outlook.
Mr. A. P. W., of Hampton, Ga.,has
recently emerged from one of the most
remarkable cases of f Blood Poison on
record. His body and limbs hail no
less than four hundred small ulcers—
his bones tormented him with pains—
his appetite failed—his kidneys pre
sented frightful symptoms—and all
doctors and 100 bottles of the most
popular Blood Poison remedy failed to
give him any relief. . He secured B. B.
B., the concentrated quick cure, and
five bottles healed the ulcers, relieved
all pain, cured his kidneys, restored his
appetite, and made him a healthy and
happy mau. Any- one can secure his
full name and correspond with him.

Handall on the President.
In an interview with the New York
Herald, Mr. Randall expressed himself
as follows:
“In my judgment it is going on as
well as possible, and I am certain that
it is making a good impression on the
people. I notice some fault finding
here and there, but I notice also that
no one pretends to doubt the sincerity
and honesty of the President’s inten
tions. When so great a change comes
about as a change of parties after a
quarter of a century, it is impossible
hut that some minor errors should be
made. Bat the people dp not deal
harshly with public men for small
mistakes in judgment, if only they see
them to be honest and siueerely’desir
ous to serye Jhe .general interest. 1
don’t “believe that any one of either
party doubts the President’s hones
and patriotic purposes nor his ability
and determination to serve not merely
his party but the whole country.”
“You think well of the President,
then ?”
“Yes; and the more I see of him
and the better 1 get to know him the
more I perceive the sturdy honesty ot
his mind, the single hearted eonseien-
oustiess with which he acts. Some of
our men say he moves too slowly. That
Lstrue; but he has an immense work
aud responsibility upon him. Of all
reforms, administrative reform is the
most difficult. To ascertain where in
the immense government establishment
bad methods prevail and incompetent
or unfit persons are employed, and to
improve the methods and substitute
faithful and competent men to .do the
work, is a huge task, for which even a
single President terra is scarcely ade
quate. What has been accomplished
in the tw o months and a-half since the
4th of March is necessarily only the
beginning. The President" and* the
cabinet nave not had time to look
closely into the machinery of the gov
ernment. They are at work, and re
ports from different and numerous
points and places are coming in and
will be intelligently acted upon as re
ceived. All his public experience as
Mayor and Governor has fitted Mr.
Cleveland in a very special manner for
his present task.”*
“You believe, then, that with suffi
cient time the President will secure
the confidence and approval of his
party and of the people at large?”
“I believe he has these already; and
feel certain that he will gain more an
more entirely their undoubting trust.
I w ill go further aud say to you that if
he goes on as he has gone, in his own
way, following his own ideas of duty
to tlie public, he will be in tlie eml one
of the most acceptable Presidents we
have ever had. He will; through his
success, by the year 1888, as the public
administrator of a great trust, lie re
nominated and re-elected, and I am
■i. t.sfied that the party can do no bet
ter than faithfully stand by him and
co-operate with him. The work of re
form confided to him can hardly lie
completed in a single term. The
country will re-elect him to secure the
completion of that work and give it
the permanence which it ought to have
for the general good.”
"Do you mean that the true pol icy
for your party is to give the adminis
tration a united and cordial support
with the distinct object of renominat
ing Mr. Cleveland in 1888.”
‘That is my view* of the political sit
uation. On general principles it must
be plain to any one that we can more
easily re-elect Mr. Cleveland than elect
a new man. Or, to put this in a differ
ent shape, if we cannot re-elect Mr.
Cleveland, he having accomplished in
part or in whole the. reforms needed by
the people, then we cannot elect any
one. We must cluster around hhn and
his administration, and thus keep onr
>arty together, strengthen it and ena-
>leit to meet its opponents in 1888
with a solid front.”
What did you say about the tar
iff?”
“As to the tariff, the administration
should be guided by the spirit and let
ter of the utterances of our platform on
this subject, and a faithful execution
of those declarations, without cavil,
will unite our party every where and
accomplish the tariff reform which
both platforms asserted to be necessa
ry. Changes occur in the conditions
existing in our country and the coun
tries with which we exchange produc
tions more rapidly than is supposed.
These changes must be provided for
through mollifications in our tariff
laws, and the best time to make these
alterations is immediately following
the information and results show*n by
our system of census returns.”

The best mode cf ascertaining the
true merits of a medicine is to ask the
druggists who sell it, whether it has
given satisfaction. The proprietors
say that Mexican Female Remedy is a
certain and effectual cure for Ieucor-
rhiea or whites, painful abscesses, tu
mors, ulcers or falling of the womb,
together with painfnl or irregular men
struation.
C* C. C. is the only guaranteed dead
shot in the world for iutemal or blind
piles, external or protruding piles, the
most aggravating cases often yielding
to one application, and always surren
dering in from three to six days to the
powerful and painless infiueuee of this

cure of all female complaints and ir
regularities, such as lnccorrho*a or

It is said that the husband of a fash
ionable lady in Chicago asked the po
lice to run her in that he might have
the cats on the block none were better
behaved than those belonging to Mrs.
T. J. French, of No. 331. Tlie mother
of the cats is a venerable animal almost
iu jrs teens, which has been the pet of
the French family for many years.
Her offspring* numbered four, w'hich
had all been brought up to imitate the
good manners of their maternal ances
tor. They hail not yet attained the
diguity of cathood, anil were but play
ful kittens, with every grace of youth,
when three were ruthlessly slaughter
ed last Sunday afternoon. The old cat
and her offspring were sleeping in the
sun when Dr’ John C. Spencer,jr.,
who moved into the next house on the
1st of May, espied them from his win
dow. He hastily procured :in air-gun
and fired at the three which were not
protected from his fatal aim by the
high fence, and then fired at another
cat he saw* taking its Sunday stroll.
His work of destruction accomplished,
he closed his window and retired.
The maid in the Frenchs’ residence
saw the poor kitteus writhing in agony
and thought they must have catilepsy,
fits, or something of the kind. Mrs.
French also saw that something was
wrong with her pets anil went out to
investigate the matter.
*‘I picked up Bal»e,” said she to a
World reporter yesterday, “and found
that her lives had tied, but 1 did not at
first notice the wound in her side. I
then hurried to the corpse of her sister
just bevonil, and found ou turning her
over that blood was oozing from her
body,, clearly showing a gun-shot
wound. I looked around for ]>oor
Taffy aud found her lying under a
waterspout with one eye hanging from
her head anil the other one lustreless,
though she still lived. I sent at once
for a physician and lie said she could
nOt recover, so my daughter adminis
tered chloroform to the poor creature
to end its sufferings,
“There could have lieen no motive
for the killing of the kittens, as they
never went abroad at uight and were
always shut up after dark. As for
climbing the fences anil disturbing
people by their cries, they never did
anything of the kind. The highest
they ever climbed on the fence was to
the knot-hole, a couple of. feet from
the ground, through which they gazed
at the iiorses feeding ami wagged their
tales, as. though enjoying the sight.
This was all they ever did in the way
of fence-climbing.”
I was lying abed and was quite ill
when 1 found my pets were killed,”
laid Miss French, a charming young
lady of rather uelicate appearance,
“but I got up at once, determined to
find out by whom the shooting had
been done. I called first at our door
neighbor’s, Mrs. Hyatt, whom I hail
not known until that time, although
she has lived in the house a year. She
knew nothing of the shooting, but ex
pressed her sympathy, having noticed
the good behavior of our cats. I then

Dr. Mary Walker, whose peculiar
form has been, missed from the streets
of Washington for some time, is now
at Kohl & Middleton’s museum in Chi
cago, and has signal a contract tore-
main until August i) at an alleged sal
ary of $500 a week. *“She boards at
the Treraont,” says a Chicago corres
pondent, “ancT in her wfilks to and
from the museum, a distance of three
blocks on a straight line, requires the
assistance of three policemen to pro
tect the pristine brilliancy of her silk
hat. She wears a suit of black diagon
al cloth made with a Prince Albert
coat and very loose trousers, in which
her very bony, brittle legs are almost
lost. Her neck, which has the diame
ter of a good-sized rolling-pin, is en
circled iu a standing collar that would
fit Paddy Ryan, and for a necktie she
wears a bow made of a bit of her great-
aunt’s biag moire antique. On one
lapel she has a bunch of cotton flowers,
with a tin type of president Clevelam
hidden among a couple of Paris green
leaves. The opposite breast is decorat
ed with a gold shield and a bronze
badge. The latter is hung from a min
iature American ensign, from which
the stars have ascaped, fastened by one
eyelet aud a piece of .shoestring. For
all her espousal of big boots and b inj _
breeches she is still womanly enough
to admire snug gloves and sneezes her
hands into ortiiuary kids (sadly in need
of beuzine ami buttons and not over an
inch and a-half smaller than her hands)
In her lecture on the curiosities aud
moustrosities she finds it convenient
usually to tickle her own vanity for the
nou-use of meats, pastries, tea and cof
fee. No one takes issue with her, for
seeiug is believing, and a hungriei
.paler, inoldier creature in pantaloons
does not exist qutside of the show. She

was a year ago, and judging from the
affinity she. has for a gas stove her
blood must lie a bout as rich as the juice
in a Bowery cranberry pie. Her skin
is so dry that it Is beginning to crum

two of our prairie blizzards to blow her
all to scales. In lecturing she carries
a well-glazed handkerchief, and is as

went to Dr. Spencer’s and sa*v his wife
auil questioned her oil the subject.
She was anything but pleasaut, u ut
admitted that her husband had always
been in the habit of shooting cats. She
asked me not to bring an action, as the
doctor was the father of four children,
hut this did not impress, as I remem
bered the man had not thought of the
feelings of the poor cats.”
I subsequently called on Dr. Spen-
■er himself,V said Mrs. French, “and
asked him if he knew ahont the shoot
ing. He said -he hail done it, and then
invited me to leave at once. This
provoked me, and Ijnade up my mind
to pnuish him if possible. The three
kittens were buried uuder the grass ou
which they loved to lie. -Sinee Sunday
the old cat and her surviving kitten
are afraid to venture into the yard.
Mr. French applied first to the police
captain and then went to see Henry
Bergb, of thfe Society for Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals, who sent an
officer up to make Investigations. The
other eat shot by the doctor belongs to
a gentleman who promises, to take
active measures to discourage such
practices. He says he would have
shot the doctor had he seen him fire at
his pet and, as it is, if the cat dies he
expresses the determination of horse
whipping the physician.”
Dr. Speucer was arrested by Agent
Evans anil taken before Justice Power,
in the Harlem Police Court. -He at
first asked for an examination, but
eventually changed his mind, and was
held in *$300 bail .for trial. Agent
Evans walked out of court with tlie
doctor’s rifle. Mrs. Spencer was not
inclined to talk about the matter last
evening. _

Rev. Sam Jones has some simple,
pathetic utterances that go home to
many hearts. The other day he said:
And some day, when I leave this
old world—and sometimes I think I
don’t care how soon—I’ll go happy, if
I’m faithful. I don’t know what I’ll
do when I get to heaven, but I know
the sweetest thing there will be to see
my wife there, too, and to see, some
day, an archangel bung us our chil
dren.
He might have added that one of the
sweetest hopes of heaven is.for parents
to be welcomed there by their children
who went before along the shining
pathway of stars.

At this juncture he was desired to
turn over his revolver to the porter,
which he declined to do in a very spir
ited manner.
“ ‘Old Dad’ (his revolver) anil me al
ways sleep together, and we don’t want
no divorce,” he explained.
The conductor remonstrated, but
was advised not to try to “braid this

“This here’s a sleepin’ car, ain’t it?”
he at length inquired..
“Yes.”
“Well, why in don’t yon let
people sleep, then, when they’ve paid

there’s lots of folks there don’t want to

Tlie conductor withdrew and my

an undertone on the poverty of the

Parson Bangle liecame disgusted
with tl*.e untruthfulness of mankind,
and preached a vigorous sermon in de
nunciation of society falsehood! - He
declared that lies told out of politeness
were just as wicked as those told with
the deliberate intention of deceiving.
In fact, these society lies got folks Into
the habit -of lying*, and they readily
pick up the other kind. The sermon
made a great impression. .Many of tlie
congregation resolved to reform*. Com
ing out of the ehurch, Deacon Jones
said to Judge Badger, who sits in
front of him:
“Judge, I hope you didn’t mind my
putting my feet uuder your pew ?”
The Judge was about to reply, “Oh,
certainly not;” but he thought of the
sermon, and answered:
“I did, though; your old hoofs took
up all the room, aud were a fearful
nuisance.”
“Well,” said the Deacon, “the hair
oil you use smells so, it nearly forced
us to leave the pew*.”
They glared at each other, and just
then Mrs. Badger and Miss Jinking
came along. Miss Jinkins had asked,
“How do you like my new bonnet?”
‘;Oh, I thought it just love—” replied
Mrs. B., and then she thought of the
sermon, and continued, “No, I didn’t
either. It is' a horrid tiling, I wouldn’t
be seen with it.” Aud Miss Jinkins
got mad and replied, “Well, if I were
yon, I’d not wear dirty stockings to
church; and if I did, I’d keep ’em out
of sight.”
While these honest conversa
tions were going on, Mrs. Smith had
said to her next door neighbor, Mr.
Murray, “I hope the crying of our
baby last night did not disturb you ?”
Aud Murray replied, .“No—that is—
yes, I wanted to brain the brat.” And
then Mrs. Smith called him a w*retch
and 'wept.
Then the clergyman came out and
asked young Symonds how he liked
the sermon. Symonds saidy “It was a
grand ef—er—no, parson, it was
blamed nonsense.”
“Sir?” said the parson, and he drew
himself up indignantly. Just then

was the reply. “Well, the money is
here in Savannah. It _was collected
through the Savannah Bank and Trust
Company at a cost of $52.95, and w as
counted out to Mr. I. M. Verdery and

A nEBOIC BOY.
How Un. PlantH Son Kencued
HI. Brother and stater.
New York Herald.
Lititz, Pa., May 13.—The full de
tails of the suicide of Mrs. Hiram
Hfautz* and her determined effort to
drown her five children show one of
the mist heroic efforts to save life on
the part of her 10-year-old son, Harry,
ou record in this section of the State.
The mother, who was the wife of a
rich farmer and an educated woman,
had become melancholy and demented
through religious matters. Yesterday
she wanted her seven children to go
with her to a mill dam, a mile and a
half away, to gather flowers. The
oldest did not go, their father being
away from home. Mrs. Pfautz and
her two sons, two daughters and a
babe went to the dam. -The boy Har
ry led the way. They sat awhile near
the deep water, when Mrs. Pfautz ask
ed Harry to pick up a stick near the
dam. He stooped to do so, when the
mother swiftly and noiselessly rushed
up behind him and pushed him in.
She then rapidly seized the other three
children and tossed them in one by
one, and then jumped in herself, babe
i:i arms. Harry, an expert swimmer,
quickly got out and hauled his broth-
er, aged 7, who had clung to a Board,
ashore. Harry then jumped in and
safely brought his sister, aged 9,
ashore. Nothing daunted, he once
more plunged in, grasped his mother,
who still held the babe. The mother
exclaimed she wanted to die, but the
boy bravely held on aud begged her
not to resist. By almost superhuman
effort he succeeded in getting the
mother and babe safely ont of the
ight feet of water to the shore.
jtleauwhile the other children stood
speechless on the bank. The next
moment Harry dove in for his three-
year-olil sister, who had snuk the
third time. Harry found the body at
the first dive anil brought it up and
ont to the bank, closly pressing the
little one to his breast. He at once
commenced rolling the body of the
girl, bat finally burst into tears when
lif realized that his little sister was
dead. His mother, who stood shiver
ing on the bank with the wet children,
implored Harry to run back to the
farm 1 to get a wagon to bring them
home. Suspecting his mother, ne im
plored her not to do auything^ash.
She promised not to, but the boy con
cluded to take the three children back
with him, leavingthe mother and babe
alive with the dead child. The three
children went home ' in their wet
clothes, and there told the horrified
father what had occurred. He quickly
drove to the scene, but there found no
one. The moment that Harry and the
children had gone the mother seized
the dead child and her babe and again
leaped into the water and sank to rise
no more.
The water was drawn from the dam
and the bodies recovered. Goroner
Hone, of Lancaster, held an inquest
this afternoon and returned-a verdict
in accordance with the above facts.
The three childrep, who so narrowly
escaped death, are confined to their
beds. They were considerably bruised
by striking rocks on the bottom of the
dam. The wife was formerly a school
teacher, but daring the past few years
became melancholy and finally de
ranged. ^

catcher was, got his gun. There w*as

A CURIOUS ANIMAL.
8het»p from the Plains of Arabia —
What They Look Like.
Savannah News.
Master Theo. MacFariand, a son of
Dr.. J. T. MacFariand, was the recip
ient a few* days ago of a pair of rather
ctirions pets. They are said to be
Arabian sheep, and are quite unlike
our domestic sheep. They were sent
to Master MacFariand by Mr. Harry
McGowan, proprietor of the Point
Breeze Hotel, Baltimore. They are
five months old. Each one has a black
head and neck aud a white body. The
fleece is thick and soft. The animals
are usually docile, and made them
selves at home in the stable and yard.
The most striking peculiarities about
them are a large ponch under the
throat and lumps of fat on the rump on
either side of the tail. The pouch under
the neck serves as a receptable for food,
which they masticate twice, as our
domestic cattle do. It may also serve
as a receptable for water, which in
some parts of its native arid country is
scarce.
Mr. McGowan lias a number of the
sheep as curiosities. He recently pre
sented Capt. J. B. West, of this city,
with a pair. How they compare in
fleece and flesh with our domestic
sheep is not known. They are doubt
less Persian sheep, which are closely
allied to the Fezzan breed, of Africa.
Tlie Persian sheep are marked with
black head and neck aud the rest of
the body white. They are very docile
and affectionate. There are ’several
breeds oi fat-rumped sheep in South
Africa, extending over that continent
and also to Asia. The Hottentot or
broad tailed sheep has a short, soft
fleece and two large lumps of fat on
either side of the lower part of the tail,
w’hich are so esteemed as a delicacy
that various contrivances are used to
prevent them from dragging on the
ground. The fat-rnmped sheep of
' ’artary and temperate Asia has a sim
ilar growth of fat upon the croup, and
long pendulous ears. The reason of
this accumulation of fat, sometimes 70
to 80 pounds, has not been satisfactor
ily determined.
