said. "anh if you cannot, get section.
You know what a section is-two

"Yes, sir" replied the man as he

There are hundreds of young men In

mud and swapping turtles, feed them
on raw meat and some sort of drug

six months they become savage enough
to fight tiger. The Jaws and teeth
are filed and sandpapered until the
mouth becomes dangerous thing to

day with a piece of wood or bunch OF
cotton until it's temper reaches white
heat. When confronted with another
turtle that has been trained and badg-

other with distended jaws, and there is
sure to be fight to a finish.
They have each been starved for q

What to Do With Them.

"Just before Montana became a
state" said citizen Of Helena, 'the
Clark-Carter contest occurred, and
most bitterly was it fought out. Any
thing that could be turned or twisted
into campaign argument was sought
out and brought to the front. Commits
soner Sparks. at that time head of the
general land office, had made n ruling
that thereafter no trees less than eight
inches in diameter should be cut down
for agricultural or mining purposes in
territory belonging to the United
States.
This ruling had aroused storm of
Indignant protest In Montana and had
straightway assumed prominent
place as one Of the main issues in the
Clark Carter campaign. l was speak
ing one night at Bozeman, and. as was
natural, I attacked this ruling Of the
land commissioner and showed. at
least to my own satisfaction, what in
jury and injustice 1t did to both farmer
and miner, and SO worked up to what
had always previously proved an eff
fective peroration by asking the ques-
ton. What, my fellow citizens, can
the farmer do with eight inch trees?

invariably been silence, but this time
shrill voice in the rear of the hall

Mr.. James Rhen. who is engaged in a
special study of bats, says that ii is Il
fallacy that the vampire is blood
sucker. Travellers and story writer's
are responsible for the story of the ter
rible bloodsucking vampire bats OF
South America. Nearly all general
writer's on this subject agree with
them as to It's criminal record, and they
all concur in laying the blame on a
large grotesque looking bat with an
enormous leaf nose, the Vampyrus
spectrum. This bat Is common in
South and Central America and, from
his great size. being about two feet
across the outspread wings, Is a sug-
gestive and repulsive enough object to
impute the blood loving habit to.
AS a matter of fact, this is some
what useful animal and Is totally inno-
cent of these charge, the bloodsuck-
ers being two much smaller and rarer
bats. The front teeth Of these two lat
ter are enormous lancets occupying
over half the tooth row Of the animals
and possessing very sharp edges. which
can easily penetrate the human skin.
The teeth of the big vampire. on the
other hand. are simply adapted for a
diet of insects and fruit. The true
bloodsucking bats are much rarer than
the vampire.-Philadelp Record.
