washing operations carried on by the
natives or whether the discovery cor

Fatal Snakes and Beasts in India

F8tal SnakeS anu bcostS In huutu.
Wild animals and snakes in India
seem to kill more human beings than
all our punitive expeditions taken to-
gether. The statistics of the loss of
human life and cattle by Wild animals
and venomous snakes In the Central
provinces of India have been Issued.
Although the totals show some de-
crease from those of last year, the
number Of deaths is appalling. Snakes
killed 1,133 persons last year and wild
animals 291. The number Of cattle
slaughtered was S,757. The man-eat-
ing propensities Of the tiger seem to
be on the increase, although 1913 OF
them were killed during the twelve
months. Each man-eating tiger seems
to be able to dispose of considerable
of year. 1t Is reported that the kill
ing of one man-eating tigress brought
down the number of persons killed in
the district from twenty-five to three.
Wolves also have become so destruc-
tive that a special reward has been Of
fered for their skins. From the study
of the habits Of animals 1t has been
found that the hyena has been a very
much maigned animal. Formerly a
reward was given for it's destruction,
as 1t was supposed to kill live animals;
but experienced authorities assert that
1t lives on carrion alone. The chief
commissioner Is making inquiries In
order to ascertain whether some and
NAL has not been confused with the
hyena.-London News.

at the envelope again and saw l had

to you, but to me-and there was no
harm done"
There was an omlnous silence OF a
few moments, and then Mrs Kerjones
spoke.

any mail addressed to you?"

when you opened that circular you
thought 1t was for me, didn't your

"And just because you found out
afterward that II wasn't, and you had
been guilty only In intention Of med
ding with mail matter addressed to me
personally you think you haven't done
anything wrong, and don't owe me an
apology, do you? Is that your idea OF
right and justice, Hiram Kerjones? Its
something to joke about, is it. that you
only meant to commit an uncivil and
discourteous act, and did not actually
do it? That will make an amusing
story to tell at the club, won't it? Sup
