Au obvious improvement to our sig
mailing system would be the more gen
eral use of code words and their substi-
tuition for numerals. A single numerai
involves at least five motions of the flag
or Morse key. With the combinations
of four letters each there could be
enough code words formed to send all
possible messages, let alone such
thingsc as mems regimental numbers.
If every man on enlisting was assigned
code word as well as a regimental
number the saving of time and expense
in telegraphing would be enormous.

laager that will hold the oxen Is that
formed by 60 wagons. These are
formed in single rank in hollow
square, touching, and with their poles
outward This renders the impro-
vised protection easily removed when
the order to ''inspan' is given. Each
wheel 81 ould be locked and fastened
securely to its neighbor, to prevent an
enemy from dragging out one of the
wagons and thus gaining access TO the
square. Every human being and an
imal must be within the Enclosure be-
fore dark, or they may run serious
risk from being fred upon by their
own friends. If time permits shelter
trench should be dug all around the
lager, so that, with men lying in them,
the others posted on the wagons, a
double tier Of infantry fire may be
maintained.

ANTS AS STRATEGISTS.
The Industrious Insects Employ Exc
ceIIent Military Tactics In For
aging for Food.

From a military standpoint, the
methods employed by ants to provide
food for an ant colony are almost per-
feet. Their foraging parties are
faultless, both in planning and execu-
ton, and are almost uniformly sue
cessful. resident of this city who
is at present in business in South AZ
RIGA has sent home n description of o
foray of an army of ants.
The army, which he estimates to
have numbered about $4,000 ants,
started from their home, in the mud
walls of hut, and marched in the di-
rection of a small mound of fresh
earth but few yards distant. The
head of the column halted on reaching
the foot of the mound and waited
for the rest of the force to arrive at
the place of operations, which evident
ly was to be the mound of fresh earth.
When the remainder had arrived and
halted, so that the entire army was
assembled, number of ants detached
themselves from the main body and
began to ascend to the top of the
mound, while the others began moving
so as to encircle the base of the
mound
Very soon n number from the de-
tachment which had assembled the
mound evidently the attacking party,
entered the loose earth and speedily
returned, each bearing IA cricket or
a young grasshoppcr, dead which he
deposited upon the ground, and then
returned for fresh load. Those who
had remained on the outside of the
mound took up the crickets and grass
hoppers as they were brought out
and bore them down to the base OF
the hill, returning for fresh load
Soon the contents Of the mound
seemed to be exhausted, and then the
whole force returned home. each car
rying his burden of food for The COM
munity.
Here, then, was regular foray,
planned and executed with military
precision, the country surveyed, the
depot of provisions known accurate
ly before the march was made and at
the mound prudential division of Ia

victims should escape. Cincinnati

BEAR PRESSED BUTTON.
He Held the Camera Wrong Side Up,
However, and the Result Was
Unsatisfactory.

John II. Lewis, of Boston, photog-
rapher, who spends his summers in the
region around Moosehead lake, has de-
veloped what is probably the only pic
ture ever taken by black bear, for
Bruin really did take the picture.
He held the camera, focused the
thing and pressed the button. He held
the camera wrong side up, however,
and his paws must have shaken little
from the locks of the print.
Last August a party of six people
from PlaIntield, n. j., passed fort
night in camp on the upper West
branch, occupying the log cabins at
Sears High Landing, so called.
In so large party there was consid-
cradle refuse food, and this was dumped
about half-milt from the camp in the
woods. The garbage pile failed to
grow, and the campers were at loss
to account for its disappearance. Fin
ally one of the men made up his mind
to go to the scene and watch for the
animal that came around regularly
every day to feed on the crusts of the
table. He went to the point one morn
ing and sat in the bushes and waited
Soon lie heard noise, and in minute
or so n big black bear appeared. Then
came another, and finally third.
They ate all OF the garbage, and then
went away. The Plainfield man con-
ceived a desire to photograph the ami
mails He put up a job with the cook
and the next morning good half

bushel of truck was scattered about
for the benefit of the bears.
The camera man loaded and cooked
his machine, sought a favorite spot and
waited. He had not waited long before
two big bears numbered out of the
woods and went to work cleaning up
the potato peelIngs, bacon rinds, etc.
The man watched the bru'es for
awhile, and then slipping from behind
holding the camera in such position
that he could quickly press the button
when the bears saw him approaching.
When within 20 feet Of the animals they
scented him and turned in his direc-
ton.
The New Jersey man forgot what he
was there for. lie dropped the camera
and lit out for camp.
When he returned he was accom-
panied by all of the guides and their
rifles. The bears were gone, but the
camera WINS lying on the ground, not
