Traits of the Gorilla
African Natives Convinced the Monster Animal Possesses the
Soul of a Man.

Gorilla hunting is a distinct sensa-
ton even for the veteran hunter. This
animal, which has become somewhat
confused with fable and fiction. is a
reality, aud a decidedly unpleasant
one to engage. The West Africans
are MORALLY afraid of it, believing
that the brute contains the spirit of
a man. They attribute to it all sorts
of ferocities, like the carrying off of
a human being, who is permitted to
return after being deprived of toe and
finger nails.
Skilled hunters have never observed
any of these doings, but they testify
to the brute's strength and ferocity.
According to a French sportsman a
%full-grown gorilla can bite through a
tree six inches thick in order to Sc
cur the sap, and twist a gun barrel

One great secret of Napoleon's pow
er was his ability to sleep. If he had
but an hour for sleep he slept an hour,
even though the fate of an army or
of an empire hung in the balance
while he slept. Gen. Grant was an
other great example of this ability
to lay aside work at quitting time.
Even in the Wilderness campaign.

ments of the nations armies. stretched
out in battle line a thousand miles
long lay on his shoulder; when his
goodnight commands involved all
night marching and fighting of his
army of the Potomac, and his waking
orders might mean victory or defeat,
the killing or the saving of a thousand
men-under it all he lay down and
dropped to sound sleep as quickly As

what a great writer has called a
'frictionless mind" He saved for

IRE GAVE
REAL TREASV

Thousands of crystal pendants,
some as white as alabaster, others
with a golden tint, seemed to be try
ing to outsparkle one another in the
candle light. The walls, in places,
glistened with their beautiful deco
rations.
From this beautiful crystal palace
the explorers proceeded to the low
er chamber. Three ladders were
dashed together and lowered into the
hole, but 1t was found that they were
too short by. at least forty feet. The
chamber is about eighteen feet
square, and it's walls perpendicular,
as though squared by expert marble
cutters. Its color is hat of the ma
tive rock, a lime formation.
1t is a characteristic of this cave
hat the brilliant white crystal deco
rations have gold ore as a back
ground, which serves to enhance their
beauty. In picking off specimens the
soft ore comes with them, and, as a
rule, the capitalization is but a thin
covering to the ore.

How man, people realize the bane-

How many know that ordinary un-

Yet this is an established fact.

One physician by his sunny confidence
and cleverly turned assurances will
seem actually to impart new strength

FIRST ENGLISH DAILY
Example Of Wonderful Advance in journalism in Two Hundred Years.


The first English daily paper was is
sued two hundred years ago last
month. 1t was the Daily Courant,
which was published next door to the
Kings Arms Tavern at Fleetbridge,
London, on the thoroughfare that is
still the headquarters of English jour-
nalism.
There we're no cable messages OF
telegraph reports for the Courant. In
coming ships did not report 400 miles
off the coast by wireless telegraphy.
There was no organized news service,
covering the whole civilized world and
furnishing the most intimate details
Of the worlds news on the day that it
occurred.
Such a thing as a foreign corre-
spondent had never been thought OF,
and the modern perfecting press, with
it's output of many thousands of
many-paged newspapers an hour, was
as undreamed of as Marconi's span
ming of the Atlantic with his tele-
graphic ether vibrations.
Instead, the Courant consisted of but
a single sheet of the size of a half
sheet of foolscap or deed paper, and
was printed only on one side. There
was no editorial comment and no ad-
vertisements. The sole source Ct

A remarkable cave has been discsN-
cred at the Abbey mine, nea Kendall,
Fergus county, Mont, The cave is
about $50 feet long, part of it being at
an angle of As degrees and part per-
pendicular to the formation. Another
unusual feature is that it is found in
an immense ore body.
The main chamber of the cave pre-
sents a beautiful appearance. portions
of the wall being decorated with
masses of crystallized lime and sill
ca, while from the lofty roof hang in
Vulnerable scintillatlng stalactites.
On the floor of the cave are hundreds
of tons of cyanide gold ore, as rich as
any found in the mine proper, averag-
ing about $40 a ton, and one side of
the cave is formed by the foot wall of
the ore body.
The miners we're drifting to con
meet with the main ore body, and at
the end of the shift one evening last
week set off the final blasts for the
day. Returning the next morning,
they discovered that the drift had
been connected with a large cave, and
preparations were at once made to
explore it.

practically a universal necessity.
There have occurred scores of dozens
Of cases where healthy persons have

Of no doubt whatever hat the diseases

We should have fewer cases of cancer
If some great doctors could assure the
world that It is not a hereditary dis
ease; but morbid-minded persons on
hearing that there is cancer in their
families, generally do the very worst
thing they can do under the circum-
stances-they conceive an awful dread
that they will be afflicted with it.
They dwell upon the fear constantly;
and every triaing ailment which
troubles them is at first taken for the
premonitory symptoms of cancer. The
morbid condition of mind produces a
morbid condition of body, and II the
disease does happen to be in the sys-

to develop.
