The British steamship Indramayo, in port from Japanese and Chinese ports, had an adventurous voyage with a small holdful of as fierce an aggrega Unn TT iM honato OS on mm i HVTll Vfc tl IIU 11 111.1 TT11M brought from Singapore, says the Brooklyn Eagle. When the big ship left Singapore there were on board an i elephant, six leopards, half a dozen I 1 i huge monkeys of the most savage spe cies, two snakes twenty two feet in length apiece and weighing some 400 pounds in the aggregate and a cassowary. Stowed under the hatches on the main deck on the port side forward, the menagerie got along without trouble until the steamer ran into a gale after passing through the Suez canal.

Then the elephant mingled its frantic trumpetings with the yells of the leopards, aud the cassowary kept in the chorus with a series of heartrendiug shrieks that seut shivers through the crew of Malays and lascars. The black leopard caught half a dozen of the crew during different portions of the trip when he was being fed and lacerated as many hands aud legs before the ship warped into her berth in South Brooklyn. Upon the vessel's arrival Jacob Schmitt, well known as a wild animal dealer, boarded the ship and weut below with Captain Craven to look over the leopards, the monkeys and the snakes. He had passed the row of wooden cages and had been told of the savageness of the ''black devil," as Captain Craven called the black leopard. He went back to examine the two crates containing the two huge snakes.

As he did so Schmitt came within range of the claws of the black cat. It made a grab for him, and his left hand was terribly lacerated before he had time to get away from the cage, although the shouts of Captain Craven and several others who saw the animal man's danger were intended to warn him. The claws of the cat narrowly missed ripping out the main artery of Bchmitt's left hand. Captain Craven, who is a surgeon as well as the master of the Indramayo. attended the wounded man and skillfully dressed and bandaged the lacerated flesh of his hand.

When the Indramayo was about 1.200 miles east of Sandy Hook the elephant was found dead in its in closure. The animal had not been ailing, except that he refused food for several days when the weather wis stormy and the ship rolled and pitch 3d badly. Seasickness, the disease that has killed a great many wild animals in transit, undoubtedly caused the death of Captain Craven's elephant. The huge carcass was thrown overboard and was last seen floating like a small sized mountain on the surface of the sea. The body of the defunct IT MADE A GRAB JF0R HIM.

elephant will undoubtedly be reported by ships, just as was the body of the big elephant that was expected to take the place of the late lamented Jumbo, and which was also cast into the sea upon the death of the brute two years ago. On that occasion the elephant's carcass was reported as having been seen floating for months after its death. When the Indramayo was passing through the Red sea the early watch on deck was panic stricken when one of the big snakes crawled lazily through the hatch and calmly sunned iself on deck. The extreme heat of the Red sea had caused the snakes to become uneasy, and they came out to enjoy the sunlight in preference to the close atmosphere of the stuffy hold. It took the combined efforts of Captain Craven, First Officer Ronald, Second Officer Crawford and Third Officer Blay to get the lascnr and Malay crew to work recapturing the snake.

As the brute weighed nearly 200 pounds, was nearly twenty three feet long and was not at all friendly to arrest, the trouble in getting hiin back into a 4 by 4 crate can well be imagined. John Rome has been in charge of the main door of the House, at Wash ington, for thirty years. He is the youngest veteran of the Mexican war and is the only survivor of that war on the House list of employes. He was a drummer boy at, the bombardment of Vera Cruz, where a cannon ball carried away the best part of his left arm. Ifllld or iin as mi A.
