DWARFS IN MOROCCO.
Stunted in Growth Because of Poor Food
and q Rigorous Climate.

Stunted in Growth Because of Poor Food
and a Rigorous Climate.
The existence of a race OF dwarfs on
the Atlas range, about which there was
an animated controversy last year,
has received unexpected confirmation.
Walter B. Harris, who has just returned
from journey in southern Morocco,
communicates the facts to the London
Times. While travelling along the foot
Of the mountains he saw thirteen or
fourteen persons, none Of whom were
over'four feet six inches in height, ma
tives of the upper mountain regions.
The Moors describe them as "a wild
people, living in built houses in the
rocks and snow, hunting mouflon with
extraordinary agility and given to
domains" He attributes their small
stature not, as some have asserted, to
the fact that they are the remnants OF
the troglodytes, but to the circum-
stances in which they live. He believes
them to be 'merely a certain collection
of Shleh tribes, who, through the high
altitude at which they live and the ex-
tremes of climate they are subject to,
from their poverty and inability to
raise crops, from the scarcity and bad
quality of such food as they are able to
collect, have, in the lapse of centuries,
become of almost extraordinarily
stunted growth" On his return jour
ney to the coast Mr.. Harris visited the
artificial caves of Ain Tarsilt, which,
from the height of the roofs and the
size of the doors, windows and alcoves
for beds, were evidently the work OF
dwarfs. He does not venture an opin-
ion, however, as to whether any de-
scendants of this people are still living.

SWIMMING ON HORSEBACK.
Some Horses Sink Much Deeper in tn
Water Than Othors.

Some Horses Sink Much Deeper in the
Water Than Othors.
Swimming horses across flooded
creek or river is common ard on some
stations almost daily occurrence in
Australia during the rainy season. AS
rule I have remained seated in the
saddle while swimming my horse across
a flooded river, and have found the
buoyancy of the horse to vary quite as
much as that of a human being, says a
writer in the London Field. have had
some horses which would swim with
the seat of the saddle clear above the
water, while others on the contrary
swim so deeply that only the ears, eyes.
and nose were visible. In the latter
case the sooner the rider slips over the
tail the better. If you are not in the
saddle / do not think it matters much
whether you swim at the horses head
or his tail, or on your back, breast or
side. OF course, the nearer you are to
his head the better chance you have OF
guiding him if necessary, but as rule
horses will swim as fast and as straight
as they can to the nearest landing
point. In the whole course of my ex.
perience l have never seen but one
horse unable or unwilling to swim, and
on this occasion the horse turned on his
side Immediately it found itself in deer
water, and, refusing to make the slight
est effort, 1t was drowned. In my
opinion the most important thing to dc
when swimming any horse across 6
stream is to unbuckle your snaffle rein
and, if riding with double-reinet
bride, cut the stitches of the curl
rein. Practically the only danger there
is lies in the risk of the horse getting
his fore legs entangled in the bride
which can easily be avoided

AIR SHIELDS US FROM DANGER.
Protecting the Earth from Being Injured
by Erratic Interstellar Missiles.

Protecting the Earth from Being Injured
by Erratic Interstellar Missiles.
The sensational statements which
were widely published during the recent
appearance of strange comet in An
dromeda, and the attention which was
drawn to the Biela swarm of meteors
at about the same time, served to re-
mind every one of singular and, in
some respects, important Office of the
atmosphere that we seldom think of.
The atmosphere is not only cover for
the earth, serving to keep it warm by
retaining the heat derived from the sun,
but it is also shield, which effectually
protects the earth against missiles from
space. The service which the soft,
transparent air thus renders Is, indeed,
wonderful one, according to the
Youths Companion. Many thousands
of meteors every day run into the at
mosphere with velocity averaging
sixty times that Of a cannon ball, and
yet we are perfectly safe, because they
cannot reach the ground except in the
form Of microscopic particles Of dust.
But for the resistance interposed by the
atmosphere the mortality from meteors
might form an interesting list in the
general statistics Of mankind. 1t is the
excessive velocity Of the meteors which
leads to their destruction. Making due
allowance for the comparative rarity Of
the air at the great height at which me-
teors become luminous, the heat de-
veloped by their rush of twenty-five or
thirty miles in second must be suff1-
cient to dissipate them almost instant
ly. In the case Of the Biela meteors,
it is pretty definitely known that the
particles which enter the atmosphere,
when the earth in its orbit meets the
meteoric swarm, once formed part Of
the mass of a comet, known as Biela's
comet, which split into two parts in
1s46, and was last seen in the form of a
comet-then q double comet-in 1852.
But every year in the month Of Novem-
Der, when the earth approaches very
near to the path in which the missing
comet formerly travelled, and which is
followed by the meteors Mat now ap.
parently represent all that is left of the
comet, greater or less number Of these
meteors plunge into the air and are con.
| sumed.
