MExiCO'S WILD HOG.
He Is the Most Vicious and Fearless Of
the Brute Creation.

He Is the Most Vicious and Fearless Of
the Brute Creation.
"The most vicious and fearless of the
brute creation is the peccary, or wild hog
of Mexico" said C. W. Bartlett of Laredo,
Tex. "This animal seems utterly devoid
of the emotion of fear. 1 have never seen
1t turn hairs breadth out of its path for
any living thing. Man is its special bette
noir. 1t displays an intelligence in fight
ing the human strangely at variance with
its apparently complete lack of any mental
attributes save the very lowest order of
instinct. They are rarely found singly,
but go in droves of from u hundred to
thousands. Their ability to scent men is
particularly marked. 1 have known
drove of them to scent man mile off
and strike as straight for him as the arrow
flies. There is no use to try to brighten
them with guns. The cannonading of
full battery would have no moro effect on
them than the popping of frecraoker.
The only thing to do when they get after
you is to run away from them as fast as a
horse can carry you. And then there is no
certainty that they won't catch you. They
arc nearly as swift as a horse, and their
endurance is as great as their viciousneas.
"A friend of mine encountered a drove
of them in a wild part of Mexico q few
years ago and his escape was miraculous.
He very foolishly shot and wounded
number of them. Then he took refuge in
a tree. The pecoaries kept him in the tree
all that day and through the night They
circled around the tree, grunting and
squealing their delight at the prospect of
a feast He soon exhausted his ammuni-
ton, and brought down peccary at each
fire. But this had no terrors for the
beasts. Along toward morning the brutes
began to eat the ones he had killed, and
when they thus satisfied the cravings of
their stomachs they formed in line and
trotted off. If they had not had some of
their own number to devour, they would
have guarded that tree until my friend,
through sheer exhaustion, dropped from
his perch and allowed them to make
meal off him. The wildcats and tigers
that infest the Mexican wilds flee from
the peccaries with instructive fear, and
even rattlesnakes keep out of their path. "

A FINE DISPLAY OF ART.
American Sculpture as Shown In the Lii
brarv of CoDpPasS

American Sculpture as Shown In the Ii
brary of Congress.
Upon the whole it may almost be said
that the soulptors appear in the library to
greater advantage than tho painters. Not,
Of course, that the art of sculpture is SO
successfully cultivated in America as the
art of painting, but that the library pre-
sents moro adequate exposition of what
we can do in sculpture than in painting.
1t is indeed the first collective exhibit in
durable form of the work of American
sculptors that has ever been made. There
Is no American sculptor who is conspicu-
Gus by his absence, whereas there are
American painters whom the observer will
miss and others whom he will encounter
with more or less regret The bronze doors
OF Warner set a standard at the threshold
to which it would be too much to hope
that all the interior sculpture should con-
FORM And yet those who know American
sculpture best will probably be most sur
prised at the success with which the sculp-
tural adornnent of the great rotunda has
been managerial the appropriateness,
alike architectural and symbolical, of the
eight austere figures Of the pendentives, at
the dignity and the force of the portrait
statues. Not that even here there are not
some works which appeal for attention by
a provincial eccentricity.
The more strictly decorative modelling,
which still has sculptural pretensions, one
cannot praise so highly. The facility of
the modeler of it is so astonishing that it
would be contrary to nature if it We're not
largely reminiscent. Reminiscent or not,
the aspiring bronze figures that form the
finals of the newell posts in the vestibule
are extremely effective. But the flying
figures which hold the tablets over the al
legorical statues and which fill the span
drills by the simple expedient of kicking
backward into them, are pretty plainly
homogeneous with the sober and monu-
mental richness which is the character of
she great rotunaa and which is very pow
erfully enhanced by the allegorical statues
of the pendentives and the portrait statues
of the marble screens.-M Montgomery
Schuyler in Soribner's.

Diamonds and Light.

Professor William Crookes, in a lecture
In London recently, called attention to the
fact that when diamonds are placed in a
vacuum and exposed to a current of cleo
tricity they shine with different colored
lights. He has seen them emit bright
blue, pale blue, apricot, red, yellowish
green, pale green and orange rays. One
beautiful green diamond in his collection,
when phosphoreseing in good vacuum,
gives almost as much light as a candle
The light is pale green, almost white.

Lord Hertford's Haste. at the Funeral.
The Lord Hartford who formed the Wal
lace collection visited Ragley, the family
place in Warwickshire, only once in his
life, and that was on the day of his fathers
funeral, in March, 1912. The third mar
quis had died in London at Dorchester
House, and the body had been brought by
road to Ragley, where it lay in state in
the darkened dining room, with tall can
dies burning all around, the room hung
with black velvet, the bier surrounded by
mutes and plumes, while the coronet was
displayed on q crimson cushion placed up
on the coffin, and the star and ribbon of
the Garter were on q purple cushion.
Squires, parsons, yeomen and country folk
were all assembled, and having refreshed
themselves, the hour arrived for the funeral
in Arrow church.
The following account is from volume
printed many years ago for private circu-
lation: Just then a travelling carriage,
with four smoking post horses, dashed up
the avenue. A solitary traveller got out,
and, looking round him unconcerned, en-
tered the house of DEATH This was tho
4-lw Marquis of Hartford, heir to most
princely heritage. The travel stained
horses remained standing before the prin-
cipal entrance of Ragley Hall, while the
funeral service was being hurried over
and the unhallowed remains of a man
who had left none to mourn for him were
deposited in the damp, dark vault. Then,
when the coffin was consigned to its niche
in the family sepulcher, the traveller,
drawing his ample cloak somewhat closer,
stepped back into his carriage and has
tened away. The wondering rustics, who
looked through the closed windows from
tree top and branch ct the comfortably
muffled figure, reported that he had fallen
asleep before he reached the park gates.
But, asleep or awake, none of them ever
looked again ON the impassive face of
their landlord. London World

solrteiy dangerous to use outward appiica-
tious. for if the skin alone is cleared, the
real disease is likely to attack some internal
organ of the body, where it may prove fatal
to life itself
In the majority of cases these unsightly
skin diseases are due to two things weak
ness and disorders of the distinctly ferii-
nine organism, and impurities of the blood
caused by them. The woman who suffers
from disease in womanly way will soon
suffer in her general health. Her stomach,
liver and other organs will fail to perform
their proper functions, with the result that
the blood becomes impure. Left to her
self, she will probably resort to cosmetics
and ointments. If she consults physician
he will tell her that the stomach or liver
only is at fault. Her distinctly womanly
ailment is really the first and only cause.
For this she should resort at once to DR..
