The SOlnals.

The Solnals are "kittle cattle" to deal
with. Armed to the teeth with spears.
aaggers and clubs, they are equally skill
full and reckless in the use of them. The
men live to fight and to talk; what work
gets done is done by the women. Tribal
wars are incessant; sanguinary social
uuarres are of everyday occurrence, and
if death seldom ensues, it is because the
clansmen on either side are Jealous to
separate the combatants before the fine
for homicide, borne in common by the
relatives of a manslayer, is incurred.
Camel driving is almost the only form of
masculine industry, yet it does not ap-
pear that time hangs heavy on the Somal's
hands. Hairdressing and dyeing flor he
aspires to blonde chevelure) agreeably
occupy good deal of it; and his por-
tentous and inexhaustible loquacity is
often INDUCED at the expense Of sleep.
Ethnologically, the Somals may be de-
scribed as Arabized Gallas. Although
not aboriginal, since traces of prior
Misunderstanding and lish-eating people
abound near the coast, they have prob
ably occupied their present territory for
some millenniums. Through the ex-
ample of Greek merchants trading to
Mosylon for myrrh and ivory, the Somals
substituted for partial clothing of skins
(Which e7en now survives among some
of their outcasts) the dignifed "sagum
Arsinoeticum;" and their present national
costume is perhaps the most purely
classical to be met with outside the,
sphere of antique stutuary. 1t consists,
for men and women alike, of a 'tobe;;n
or straight piece of cotton cloth printed,
OF white with crimson boTdlerr) two
breadths wide and some tws11vfe feet long,
.draped in graceful folds about the body
and fastened on the laft shoulder. San
dals are worn OF the feet, strings of
gaudy beads aSout the neck, amulets in
the most sSi1tasble situations for warding
off maHefic influences. The physiognomy
81 this people is of high type, debased
I by the brutality of ages. The color OF
their skin runs through all the shades OF
brown. Their figures are tall and slender,
vet strong and we'll poised. They are
often skilled in Workmanship and adopts
in elephant hunting, yet, through dig
nifty or laziness, employ lowfcaste tribes
armed with poisoned arrows, to bring
down their game.-Eain5urgh RepieU.

a Lava Whirlpool.

A party who have been exploring the
crater or lava beds about twenty miles
southwest of Albuquerque have returned
and vouch for the truthfulness of the story
related by j. H. Beaton and r. w. Lou.
don. These two gentlemen stated that
on their way to the Malpais they net .
Mexican who VOLUNTEERED fora few dollars
to go and show them what he knew about
the crater AS a general thing the Mex
leans arc supcrstitious and shun the vicin-
ity of the lava beds, but this man agreed
go. He pilotcd the Albuquerqueans
to Il cave on the highest point through
cracks in the floor of which warm vapor
assembled.
Viewing the surroundings for a few
seconds the men were startled by Il low,
rumbling sound, like distant thunder,
and the lava beneath their feet trcmbled.
The Mexican fled Immediately to the open
air, but before the gentlemen could real
izc it portion of the bottom of the cave
fell, and they with it, into intense dark
ness Neither was injured, but the
ground upon which they fell seemed to
sway to and fro. Fortunately one of the
party had candle and some matches,
and after innumcrable attempts to light it
the candle was made to burn.
When light was obtained, a lake of
water, black as pitch, lay at their feet,
while the opposite shore appeared to be
moving from right to left. 1t seemed
that they had landed on a floating island,
OF huge mass of lava. which had proba-
bly, been eddying around in this strange
whirlpool for Centuries. The Mexican
soon returned to the mouth of the cave,
and lowering lariats, by the aid OF their
horses, pulled the imprisoned explorers

ABOUT MOVING BEES.

If the beekeeper wishes to move his
bee colonies short distance--less than!
half or three-quarters of mile-he may:
do so with,slight Inconvenience. Fixing,
our grounds last season, we had to move
ours twice, eight or ten rods. We did
this just at nightfall, after they were
done flying. The first day we move
about half Of them, taking each alternate
colony In the new position we placed
the entrance facing the opposite dircc-
ton from that of its previous position
We also drove u board into the ground
just in front of the entrance. The new
position of the hive as to points Of TIE
compass, and the new object in front of
the hive, caused nearly all the bees to
mark their new position and return to it.
The few that went back TO the old place
Joined the colonies still there, and
strengthened them. After the bees first
moved had had a good fly, we moved the
others, mt similar time and in similar
manner as before, only leaving four col
onies, one in each quarter of the old
place, to receive any bees that might re-
turn. Soon these -four were moved, and
so far as we could see, we suffered no loss
or Inconvenience. The point to be Ola
served is so to change the aspect abog
the hive that the bees when they co8
out will note the new surroundings 49,
ticiently to charge their memories; Yen
they will come back to the new Mhe,
and not to the old one. Changing Sm

The Father of Washington.

A short time since inquiry was made in
regard to the place where the father OF
George Washington was buried. Dill
gent search failed for some time to asccr-
tain the location of the grave of Angus
tine Washington. But the information
has finely been secured. 1t seems that
Augustine Washington, the father Of
Gen. George Washington, died April -,
1743, in Stafford County. and his body
was brought down and deposited in the
vault at Wakefield, near Brides Greek, in
Wcstmorcland County. where his first
wife (Jane Butler) had been buried in
November, 1928. The site Of this vault
and burial ground is correctly located on
a chart made from survey of ''Wash-
ington's birthplace" by a. Lindenkohl,
in September, 1879, copies of which chart
can be obtained from the office Of the
United States Coast and Geodetic survey
in Washington. The spot is occasionally
visited by tourists, and was seen by Bishop
Meade in 1857, who describes its neglect
ed condition as sdisgusting.''
The condition has not been improved
since. The burial ground occupies a
space fifty CT sixty feet square. An arch
Of the vault fell in many years ago, and
the excavation is nearly filled with debris.
Near by are two gravcstoncs, one 1906,
marking the grave of two children John
and AIildred) Of Lawrence Washington,
grandfather Of Gen. George Washington.
The other is over the grave of Jane, the
first wife OF Augustine Washington, the
father of the General with the date Nov
%. 1928. There are other fragments Of
gravcstones lying around The whole
place is overgrown with vines and bur-
docks. 1t is question as to who has a
legal title 10 the plot now. In 1913 Col.
George C. Washington sold the Wake
field estate to John Gray. but made a
reservation of the old family burial
ground and sixty feet square at the birth
place. In 1858 Col. George G. Washing
tons son, Lewis Washington, granted
both spots to the Commonwealth on con
dition that they be suitably marked and
enclosed. The Legislature accepted the
grant, but tie conditions were not COM
piled with. In 1888 the United States
acquired title to the sixty feet square at
the birthplace and the other land adjoin-
ing for the purpose Of marking that spot
with monument. but nothing was done
about the burial ground In 1887, Con-
gress made an appropriation for monu-
ment at the birthplace. The work has
OF yet been executed.

OLD COWS FOR BEEF.

Immature young cattle produce beef
which docs not possess the fine qualities
and hrmness of that from fully matured
animals, while that from old animals is
usually tough and undesirable. When u
COW has passed her age of usefulness she
is generally turned into beef, but too
often in such way as to make the beef
both poor IN quality and exceedingly
tough and dry. There is way of
rcmcdying this in great measure, and
one which farmers can adopt. When an
old COW is sold to the butcher he pays a
very low price for@her, but we invariably
made use Of such animal on the farm,
and almost every year we slaughtered one
animal of this kind for our home use.
When we had decided on butchering
any particular cow, we took her in hand
two or three months before we wished
to slaughter her, our first step being to
get her down as poor as possible without
injury. As soon as this was accom-
plished, we commenced the work of fat
iening, and pushed this as fast as it was
possible to do it. For the first week or
two we had to accustom her gradually to
rich food, after which she was fed three
times daily toward last, and all she
could possibly consume and assimilate.
Corn, in its different form, being the best
and most economical fat-forming food.
was the principal food, with just enough
other and coarser food to act as dis
tender and to keep the animal in good
health. In few weeks we had fat
animal, which, when killed, produced
6nc beef, the quick fattening rendering
the flesh tender and juicy.-National
