Recent declarations of the Greek
newspapers that a regular piratical or
ganization still survives in some Of the
more out Of the way parts of the Med
iterranean receive a certain amount Of
confirmation from the confessions Of two
men arrested in the PirsRns on charges
Of piracy not long ago. The head
quarters of the band Is said TO be Avail,
and two dozen ships are said to be en-
gagged in the business. The scene of
their operations, it is further stated, -
the coast Of Asia Minor and the islands
Of the Archipelago, and by means of
false papers the booty is landed in
Greece free of duty.
Cattle stealing is the chief part of the
enterprise, but it is said that vessels are
also attacked. Indeed the prisoners
admit that a very short time ago they,
in company with others, attacked a
Greek vessel on the coast of Ephesus,
whose crew had gone ashore for water,
killed the captain, who had remained
on board, carried off the cargo, consist
ing Of fifteen oxen, and sold tine beasts
on the high seas.
The plan Of the pirates was TO rob
outside Of Greek waters. and within
them TO pose rs honest merchants. That
is why they have been able 10 practice
their trade IN security under the very
eyes of the authorities. The piracy evil
IDENTIFY has been on a small scale and of
a most unromantic character. but the
existence of it was unsupported, and
thorough investigation has been set on

frightened br a Snake.

Five-year-old Hazel Fellows, daughter
of a well known jackson Mich. citizen,
has been almost frightened to death by
a rattlesnake. Little Hazel was out in
the yard singing and her music charmed
the snake, which was near by. and
which held its head up as long as she
sang. The girl saw the snake. but did
not know what it was, afterward de-
scribing it as something very pretty
and tied mp with ribbons" When she
stopped singing the snake put ont its
fangs, and Hazel, being fearfully fright
ened, screamed. The women in the
house rushed out and found her. Her
face was eolorless and her limbs rigid.
She was soon restored TO conscious
ness, when she said that the animal
sprang toward her, striking her in the
waist the moment she stopped singing.
An examination showed a red spot at
her waist, but the flesh was not broken,
evidently on account Of her thick clothes.
When asked If she could hear any rat
ting sound she said she did. and an
swers 10 other questions made it certain
that the animal was a rattlesnake.-

An Interesting Poor Case.

Jasper Mardis vs.. Poor Overseers of
Burlington township was an interesting
case in the Indiana court recently. The
plaintiffs praeticing physician, and
resides at Strongstown. James Fatter-
man had chronic affection, and the
plaintiff attended him and made his
charges against F.tterman for visits and
medicine. Fatterman's troubles grew
more serious and became very painful.
The plaintiff was called to relieve and
rendered some service. Fotterman died
after day or two. The plaintiff en-
deayored TO secure his bill. Failing to
get payment from the family, he got his
bill approved by two Justices, Graham
and Mardis, and then sued the township
before Squire Graham. From the just
ices judgment, the township took an sp-
peal. There was some evidence that the
plaintiff agreed 10 cure Fatterman or
make no charge. The township conten-
ded that as Fatterman was not a charge
on the township, the services could not
be recovered from the township, because
they were not rendered in an emergen-
cy. 1t was also shown that the plaintiff
had presented bills of different amounts.
The amount claimed in the suit was $25.
A large number of witnesses were in at
tendance, and the attention Of the count
was occupied in the trial until Wednes-
day evening. The jury found verdict
in favor Of the overseers.-C ChsrrNtree Rec-

An Ostrich Amazes Africans.

News has Just reached Liverpool of
the arrival at Sierra Leone, west Africa,
of a remarkable specimen Of the ostrich
tribe, which the people Of that colony
have seen for the first time. The eostrich,
which is ten feet high, has come from

at least 600 miles TO the British COLONY.
The bird was sent by the great Moham-
medan chief, Alimamy Samadou. to Mr..
Alfred L. Jones, Of Liverpool. who has
the coaling establishment at Sierra
Leone. II came down with q caravan Of
the Alimamy's headnen and traders.

with their produce. ivory, gold, etc.
1t is most unusual circumstance for
an ostrich to be found in central Africa.

company Of native police TO escort it to

r,,.ns.,a Cattle Burusa.

Clausen Bros have received word from
the superintendent Of their stock range
in the Bear River valley that more than
1000 head Of fat cattle have been de-
stroyed by the great forest fires that
have for weeks been sweeping over that
region. Nine houses and four cabins
were also destroyed, and three herdsmen
fatally burned.
The cattle were feeding in a small
valley. A strong wind suddenly blew
sea Of fire down upon them The an
imals stampeded, bat they ran in the
wrong direction. Before the cowboys
could turn the maddened animals the
herd was surrounded by flames. The
cattle huddled in the center of clear
ing, about a mile square in extent, and
the cowboys thought they might remain
quiet and eventually escape. Showers
Of cinders and sparks fell upon the herd,
however, and presently q steer ran
amuck among its companions, goring
them with its horns and believing
frightfnlly. The other animals broke
and ran in all directions. Many of them
dashed into the midst Of the flames,
where they perished in horrible agony.
Others ran into the burning forest
near where the cabins had stood, and
paused to drink at water hole, but the
fluid was scalding hot, and the poor
brutes, maddened by their intensified
sufferings, viciously charged each other
and every other living object in sight.
To save their lives the four cowboys
who were within the fiery circle at

narrow belt of blazing greasewood, the

A Ginning Football Champion.

At the conclusion Of the game between
the HarbOrne and Handsworth football
teams at Harborne. ON Saturday. Mr.. H
B. Lowe allowed his dog, which is a
beautiful black and tan Australian ter
rier, TO play the victorious team for
about quarter of an hour. As soon as
the dog was brought on TO the field he
seemed anxious 10 get at the ball, and
when all was ready and he was let loose
among the team, in a few seconds he get
the bail, which was covered by net,
firmly between his teeth. He lodged
the players with great agility, and when
surrounded held the ball tightly between
his fore feet, and try as the players
would 10 obtain possession their efforts
were IN vain.
Then seeing an opportunity, he would
dash off toward the goal stumps with
his two legged opponents in hot pursuit.
Passing, dribbling, and long kicking did
not prevent him getting the ball, and
once the net was between his teeth it
was futile to try by kicking or pulling
to release the ball. After about a quar-
ter of an hours play" which caused
the spectators much amusement, the net
on the ball was torn and sport was aban-
dOned, neither side having scored. "

The right to call herself the Oldest

Mrs. Mary Schultzing, German, who
lives in a little frame building in the
rear of a tenement house on Park place,

and her descendants can figure out, she
Is now between 1O3 and 1O5 years Of
age. She lives with her youngest son,
who is now nearly ssventy-fVe years of
age.
Mrs. Schultzing was born in a village
in Germany, near Berlin, but the exact
year she does not remember. She has
a small silver ring, given her when she
was a child, and it has engraved upon
it 1890" The figures are almost illeg-

them has been entirely rubbed out.
Mrs. Schuitzing was married in 1912

Taking the size into consideration, the
mole is the strongest animal We know.
Whatever he does, too. he does with all
his might. One can see the reason ofthe
comparison, "blind as bait" but why
folks should ever say "blind as a mole"
is incomprehensible TO me. Watch him
as he runs about in the bright sunshine,
after a spell of underground work, and
tell me whether you think those eyes of
his, small though they are, do not serve
him in good stead. And that beautiful
coat never shows any dirt upon it, no
