Besides that, mortally-wounded buffalo

always does it il it can. Its rush on hard
ground is very rapid, and in mire the wide
spread feet Keep it from sinking. One can
easily see what an onset from this ire
mendous beast must be when made on a
narrow and muddy path, shut in on both
sides by brakes that are for the most part
impenetrable to men.
1t is the buffalo's object TO put its pur-
suer into Just such strait Much cum

there can be very little hope for the hun

against a charge from the front, flank, or
rear.
It's spOor goes on, but the beast having
doubled and lain down, or otherwise CON
cealed itself, may be close alOngside-near
enough in some quarter to make escape
impossible.

II was only three quarters Of a century

Therefore, buGalos frequently fail to
not see that the time for doing what was
their enemies a chance for life.
Men momentarily helpless have thereby
often avoided otherwise certain death:
choked with mire, while some furious bull
delayed his charge until too late. SINH
larry, certain individuals apparently fail to
remember why they chose a particular
spot TO lie in ambush, and do not utilize
those advantages which induced them to
select it.
These remarks, of course, should be
taken IN limited sense. There is a great
difference between members of each aggre-
gate, some among them being far moro
capable than others. When the whole
group is looked at, however, those traits
mentioned are undoubtedly characteristic

orders to his tenants to go to school.
A peculiar system of education spread
rapidly over the Islands, and at length, so
great was the desire to acquire the wonder
full arts OF reading and writing, that almost
the whole population went to school. Here
was a public school system established in
feudal Hawaii a decade before that edu-

Horace Mann, and some years before there
was more than a score Of inhabitants

Years later, children were sent from San

at Lahainaluna, on the Island Of Mani,
which still hourishes as a Government
