Traits of tho Rhinoceros.


Commander Whitehouse Of the Brit
ish navy writes as follows of his ex-
perience with the rhinoceros in Africa:
CAS- rule they do not interfere with
travellers that let them alone. In
some cases, of course, they are danger
Gus, but it was easy to get close to
many for photographs. 1t is often said
that rhinocerous will charge the per-
sons that he gets the wind of; SUCH is
not my experience. I walked close up
to the first l saw by accident-a COW
and its calf. They certainly got my
wind at a distance of less than twenty
yards, but after looking at me for
few seconds, they both bolted. On an
other occasion, on the Athi plains, one
came up toward us and, stopping less
than 20 yards away, watched the cara
van go by, with the wind blowing
straight from us to him. Probably he
was used to seeing Nasal and other na
tives, and rhinoceroses in less fire.
Quented places might have been more
dangerous. Two are allowed to be
shot by license. 1t is very poor sport
shooting them, but, like the hippo
potamus, they are a cheap present to
gain the natives good will in famine
time. One shot at Kin was entirely
eaten that day, and the next morning
we found some poor starved creatures
picking off what flesh was left on the
head and eating it raw"

The most important scientific fact
proved by the ST. Pierre and St. Vim
cent eruptions is the underground
connection between volcanoes.
This is also the most important fact
to be remembered by all who live near
these treacherous destroyers of life
and property.
Almost all volcanoes are like man
holes along a sewer. They are located
in rows above long cracks or fissures
in the earth's surface, SO that when
one OF the volcanoes in the row be-
gins to throw out lava and fire the
others are very liable to follow suit
and become equally dangerous.
The recent explosion Of naphtha at
Sheridan. Pa, by which % people
were instantly killed and over 200 Sc
verely burned, gives a very simple eX-
PLANTATION of the method OF explosion
along a volcanic fissure.
Thus. in the Caribbean Sea disas-
ters, Mont felee of Martinique and
La Soufriere of ST. Vincent are both
manholes in the same great fissure
that extends in a curved line for 500
miles or more. Martinique is located
almost in the exact center Of this
Line OF weakness.
The island of Jamaica. 400 miles
from Mont Pelee, is located on the
firing line and the latest dispatches
report that the sulphur pits in the
Jamaica mountains are beginning to
smoke and boil. The air around them
has also grown very hot.
The area of volcanic disturbance
has spread rapidly since the explosion
of Mont Peee. A dozen or more is
lands have been more or less affected
all being located along the great fis-
sure or crack in the earths surface
which is at the present time in d state
OF eruption.
There are a number of these cracks
OF fissures in the United States, most
of them running from north to south

large crowd lined the bleachers when the
varsity lined up against the scrubs. All
of the old men were in their regular places

game on Saturday, as his injured knee is

long run half across the field. Markle is

ting up good work. Taken all around, the
men are getting into the game with more
spirit than they have shown heretofore this
season. Every man has come to realize
that if Purdue is to be scored on on Sat-
urday ii will call forth the best that is in

be made out OF the practice games.

LAFAYETTE, Ind, Nov. 13.-With but
two days to elapse before the Indiana game
the general feeling of confidence at Purdue
has increased and to-day every student in
the university is backing his team to win.
For the first time this season there Is a
large amount of money wagered, and to-day
$500 was taken down to Bloomington for
this purpose.
Preparations for the contest are being
made at Stuart Field. The grand stands
have been enlarged, the fences repaired
and the gridiron looks like cricket ground.
The members of the four classes have had
different sections of the stands assigned to
them and Indiana rooters will occupy the
entire east bleachers. There is every rea-
son to believe that the contest will be the
most exciting ever seen here. for never
before has there been so much interest
manifested before a game
Coach Best to-day announced the prob
able lineup at the kickoff of the game,
but he said that it was the plan to make
several changes during the contest The
following were named by the coach: Leslie,
left erd; MacManus, left tackle; j. F. G.
Miller, left guard; Davidson. center; Boyer,
right end; Osborne, quarter back; Knapp
and Zimmerman, half backs; Kaylor, full
back.
Fur, freshman guard who has been out
for few days, suddenly developed sur
prising strength yesterday, and he found
no trouble in making gains against the
varsity line. Best was astonished at the
youngsters showing, and remarked that
Furr. who weighs 191 pounds, would get
chance to play Saturday. Rebel, who has
been playing at left guard all season, will
be used during part of the game, but Miller
will take his position at the start. There
will be no changes 1t is thought in the rest
or the line, but the backs will be shifted.
Arnold will succeed Knapp, should the lat
ter be laid out, and Yundt will act as SUBJ
stitute for Zimmerman. Kaylors remark
able work at Evanston clinches for him
the regular full backs position, and G.
Miller will act as his substitute.
Last nights practice showed the varsity
to be too strong and swift for the scrubs
although the latter, headed by FUR, made
twenty-five yards through tackle and for
a time had the varsity frightened. G. Mil
Ter, for the scrubs, made a pretty drop
kick that was the only score made by his
team. MacManus and j. f. G.. Miller re-
ported somewhat unfit for work, but their
injuries are not serious enough to keep
them from Saturdays game. Miller was
laid out once last night and seemed to be
showing the effects of his long lay off,
