THE JAPAN CURRENT.

KurO s,wo Piles Great Loads ss
Driftwood ON Ainskm's shores.
In one sense the Kuro Siwo. or japan
current, Is the most interesting In. the
world because many oceanographers
believe it was the direct means of peo-
pling America. This much at least Is
certain: Ii a boat were to be set adrift
on parts OF the AsiatIc coast and sur
vived all storms, the JaparH&urrert
could be depended upon to carry it
across the Pacific and deposit 1t on the
American shore. Such thing has
happened In 1882 nine japanese fish
ermen were left derelict and unable to
find their way back TO shore. They
went with the current. and after
drift lasting during several months
they were carried to Hawaii.
Trees torn by storms from the banks
OF Asiatic rivers frequently float across
the Pacific to the American coast. Be-
tween kakatag and kyak islands,
about 1900 miles northwest of Seattle,
enormous piles of this driftwood cover
the beaches. There can be no question
OF the Asiatic origin OF the timber.
They are the trunks OF the camphor
tree, the mango aud the mahogany.
Logs 100 feet long aud eight feet in di-
ameter are frequently found. Many OF
them are seen floating shoreward. with
fantastic roots standing high above the
waves. In places the logs are piled
twenty feet high. They are generally
without bark, which has been peeled
off by the waves, and most of them
have become white and heavy from
impregnation with salt water. AS they
pile up the sands drift over them. and
gradually they sink out OF sight, and
new beaches are formed. This pr lcesS
has been going OH for ages. and the
shore line Is being steadily extended.
Excavations along the beach show thai
texture of the buried timber gets hard
er and harder the farther in you so.
until in some instances petrifactiou has
taken place. Other excavations show
logs that have turned TO coal.
Tie presence OF Siberian driftwood
on the shores of Greenland convinced
Nansen that his idea Of drifting across
the Polar sea in the Fran was logical.
Great quantities of tie wood are an
nualty cast on tho coasts Of Spltz-
bergen and Nova Zembla. and there
are tribes OF Greenland Eskimos who
depend for sledge runners and other
wooden implements on the drift from
Siberian forests. For years they de-
neuded for iron implements on the
hoops of casks which came to them
over seas.-Theodore Waters In Aims

The Why Of the world.

Funny world we live in. A man who
has six horses standing Idle In stable
walked two miles out In the country
On a little matter OF business day or
two ago, while another man who haA
no horses and very little money hired
team to so the same distance. This
was an actual occurrence and shown
the peryers!ty OF human nature. He
who has the facilities for driving pre-
fers to walk, while be who could much
better prefer to walk and has no team
goes and hires one. Men are crazy to
own a team, and II soon becomes a
bore to give the horse necessa, y exer-
else. 1t has always been thus and, we
presume. always will be.

An rnwenious Rear,ran.

The Mexicans in California had an
Ingenious method of trapping bears
before the advent of the Yankees
brought modern firearms into the re-
gion. A piece of meat was nailed to
the stout horizontal limb OF an oak
tree. From limb five or six feet above
rope was suspended. to the end OF
which large stone was made fast SO
chat 1t hung about six inches above and
a trlfe nearer the trunk than the meat
on the lower limb.
When a bear smelled the meat from
afar, he would climb up the tree and
make his way to the bait In doing
so he would push the stone pendulum
to one side. Just as he was about to
fasten his teeth in the meat the stone
would swing back and bang his head.
This would arouse the anger of the
bear. and he would give the stone
sweep of his paw which would send
It swinging farther out. The conse-
quence was harder bang and more
anger. The more he struck the stone
the harder he would be hit In return
until from ferocious anger he would
lose his caution and attack the pendu-
lum with all his vigor. One powerful
sweep. then bang! and bruin would be
tumbled out of the tree to the rocks
below, where. disabled by his fall. he
would be at the mercy OF those who
set the trap whenever they chose to
take him.
