Quivering shafts of red light shot slantingly down through the autumnal leaves spotting the nature-carpeteil Jungle With fantastic designs. Slowly the sinking sun burned itself into an ashen heap of somber twilight. Over head a sephyr whispered In the tree top, left Its message and was gone AH was quiet save the laughter of a I distant brook, Night had fallen. The forest waited In suspense, the alow motion of the rising moon adding to the nervous tension as the tall trees stood expectant with breath abated. The continuous laughter of the distant brook emphasized the death-like »l te Z out Into the night the low moan, „ of a soul crying in torment, set in motion the otherwise motionless air. From the opposite side; of the glade a aavAge growl was Tialf muffled, and again silence fell, enwrapping the Jun gle in a shroud ot loneliness. Borne on the cooling night air tho crackling of an underbrush came from a distance. Two balls of red Are burn ed toward the noise. The monster limb of a corpulent oak drooped near er the ground, bowed down by its bur den as the crouching form of a Pan ther edged its way an atom closer to the breaking point. The. watching ani mal drew Its hind quarters closer to its body. Its muscles hardened. The time was drawing near when for always It would he settled—who was the king of the Jungle. Again the crackling sounds could be heard, In slow rhythmetic cadence ap proaching noise. Across the glade two other points of blazing Are appeared. The huge Jaws of a Lion opened—the forest rocked with the echo. Out into the pale moonlight of the opening strode, with stately steps, the claimant of the title—King of the Jun gle, With one huge paw thrown out defiantly before the others, he voiced the challenge, “Come one, come all, whomsoever doubts my supremacy, whomsoever questions my right to reign supreme—I challenge to a dentil struggle here In the list of the land I or he forever shall rule!*' The bold challenge went unanswer ed. Thrice was It repeated and still was not accepted. Forward moved the great animal—half-way across the opening he strode while with jealously blazing points of Are the Panther re mained -motionless on the opposite side awaiting his chance to conquer by stealth. The Lion moved closer, all unconscious of the Intended usurper's presence. The muscles of the crouching beast became harder, nerves became tenser: his head drew back the fraction of an inch. The time had come. The tree gave up a great groan as Its member swung high toward the glistening stars. Through the night air shot a dark body, claws extended, mouth half open, toward Its victim. The night's quiet was rent by the Impact of two bodies. A savage yelp of jealous rage, a mighty roar of sur prised anger, went up to high heaven. Claws and teeth of the Panther sank simultaneously Into the flesh of its an tagonist. For a moment both animals remain ed motionless. The Lion gathered together his strength, as the claws and teeth of his opponent sank deeper Into his flesh: their he sprang forward, stopped and the forest ahOOk With the wrench as every muscle vibrated in mighty uni son. The daws of the Panther were loosened, his body swung toward the earth, the tenacious Jaws still holding the flesh of his challenger. The Lion raised his paw, let It fall. The Panther was knocked to the ground, where It lay stunned with a PlOCi of quivering flesh between Its Jaws. The stately Lion drew back con temptuously Ignoring the advantage he had gained. The Panther recovered, arose to hiB feet and again, crouched ready for an other spring. The Lion waited on guard. They met! For miles around the beasts of the Jungle gathered w'hlle the long-drawn out battle for supremacy lasted. Around the list, formed .by Nature's hand, they watched, breathlessly, to see who w*ould be their future ruler. Bleeding from a thousand scars the two beasts fought on. Never resting, never allowing, eye to leave that of op ponent. The end drewjiear. The Pan ther secured a death hold—his teeth sunk through the throat of the Lion. The latger beast raised high his head, giving*no utterance at the pain It was» almost unconscious of In the all-en grossing determination. The head dropped. Half the Panther's weight Vested on the dark earth. A huge paw was planted on the vitals of the stealthy beast. The Lion took between Its Jaws and crunched the very back bone of his opponent, then tore the body asunder. The Panther's hold on the Lion's throat was released in death. The Lion, with forepaw still resting on the conquered, raised again Its magnlflcent head. The moon shone down making black the sparkling pools of blood. The heavy silence was bro ken by the roar of victory, “Thus al ways with tyrants!” And the hugo body of the.victor sunk into the open arms of Death. From the darkness, with slow stately' strides, a beast passed Into the arena. In form and size it was the counter part of the dead victor. Bathed in the moonlight, it stormed In the center of the eircle formed by tho lesser animals and there stood motionless as from a thousand throats the Jungle awakened to the cry: “The King Is dead; long live the King!” COMPLETED The new and elegant quarters of the Alligator family have been completed and surpass anything of the kind here tofore built in the park country. The family have mov ed In and after a house warming to their many friends are now “at home."

NOTES FROM' THE LABOR WORLD" The Commercial Telegraphers' Jour nal declares that a union label of uni versal design Is certalhly needed. At present there are In use 56 different union labels and ten cards, nearly all of different colors and designs, enough to confuse an old unionist of years of experience, to say nothing of the new recruits. * j State Labor Commissioner Sherman, of New Vork, in a report against unre stricted Immigration, says: “Recent revelations of the conditions in the meat packing indpstry have served to emphasize the fact that cheap labor and brutalized conditions are found side by aide, and the further fact that a fair wage, as understood In this country, will bring lnto.any occupation otherwise unattractive a class of in telligent, clean and efflplent workmen, who will not tolerate unsanitary con ditions.” The first convention of the New York state branch of the Amalgamat ed Meat Cutters and Butcher Work men of North America will be held at Auburn, commencing Tuesday, August Kelr Hardle, the English labor lead er, is organizing an agricultural la bor league on the llnea of the National Agricultural Union, founded by Joseph Arch In 1872. Blacksmiths throughout the country report a general concedanco to their demands for Increased wages and bet ter working conditions. In announcing his position on the question of the eight-hour day, Gov ernor Folk, of Missouri, says: 'I am taking steps to have the eight-hour law enforced In this state. I believe It has been demonstrated that such a law Is desirable as a means of uplifting the laboring, classes.” /• The labor organizations of America gained 1,204 new unions last year, em bracing a membership of 300,000 In dividuals. According to a government report the proportion of marble and atone cut ters who succumb to consumption Is larger than that of those engaged In any other occupation. Next come cl- Want a Diamond?

New York Judge Says It Invades Constitutional *. n «ti»ms rjjrafiuiou. among Rights. By Private Leased Wire, New York, Aug. 4.—Judge Olm- atead. In a decision handed down yes. terday In the court of special sessions, brands as “an unwarranted Invasion of constitutional rights" the New York state law which restricts the labor of women and children to ten hours a day and 60 hours a week In a factory. He says the law’ is class legislation, Justices Deuel and McKean concur with him. “It may be stated as a well estab lished legal proposition that tho right to labor and contract for that labor,” says Judge Olmstead, “Is both a liber ty and a property right; when, there fore, the legislature enacts a statute such as that under consideration, It must be admitted that It has Infringed In the enactment the rights which are very clearly accorded by tho constitu tion to the Individual cijjzen. “The attorney general finds and urges no other reason for the law than that the general welfare of the stats demands that the progeny of women of the factories shall have mothers with healthy bodies, to the end that the state may have sturdy citizens. Does the state look merely to the children of the factory women for Its future good citizens? Why should not the housewife, the woman who tolls at home, in mercantile houses, in offices, or she who toils not at all—the society woman—be exempt by legislative in terference, Injunctive <>r mandatory, for the same reason? Some of them may be mothers of future citizens, and It should be of great Interest to the state that their progeny should have birth and breeding to conserve Its welfare.” JUDGE IN PHILADELPHIA 8AY8 8ECTI0N8 ARE VOID.
