One of the most extraordinary sights
in tropical jungle is an army of
ants, says the New York Commercial
Advertiser. Far and wide, throughout
thousands upon thousands of miles of
unexpected wilderness in South Amer
lea, nothing is feared more by man or
beast.
Before one may say that he has seen
real ant army he must have seen the
very ground crawl. The jet black soil
of the dusky virgin forest must be hid
den completely beneath a blanket of
and the patter of the myriads of feet
must sound like the rustic of the early
evening zephyr as it drifts through
the impenetrable roof of green which
has from time immemorial kept Gods
sunshine and the light out of the maze
of the tangled, bushroped jungles I'M
der the equator.
at was such an army as this which
descended early one morning on the
Dieu Dispose camp of the White Water
Mining Company 400 miles UP the Sar-
amacca river. in Dutch Guiana, South
America" said a mining engineer.
THE surprise came one morning
shortly before sunrise. and the way 1t
routed us and the way the army clean
ed out the camp and continued on its
march of conquest was the most won
derful thing / have seen in twenty
years of mining and big game hunt
ing.
THE camp was a very pretentious
affair-built with a roof of sheet iron
and on siX-foot pillars to raise the floor
off the ground and preclude malarial
fevers. In the entire country there was
not, and there probably never will be,
such another camp, for it's floor space
measured so by 100 feet, and nothing
that the forethought of man could de
wise, short of an ant army attack, had
been omitted in the building.
Rescue of Don Pedro.
1--WE were awakened out of deep
slumber one morning by the wild bray
ing of Don Pedro, the mascot jack
ass. Never before had Don misoe-
haved himself, and all six of us tum-
bled out of our hammocks, rifles in
hand, expecting to find the animals
attacked by a jaguar. Don was in the
midst of an ant army, acting as if he
were crazy. He had rolled on his
back, and was writhing in pain fight
ing and kicking and biting everywhere
at once and emitting cries of agony.
We ran into the midst of the little
fighters and saved Don by the ears
and the tail, the only two safe places
to lay hold on him. Then he was
brushed clean OF the little pests.
THE army was making a bee line
for the camp, and it became a race
between us and the insects to see what
could be saved. The programme was TO
store away what could be stored by
the only safe means possible. and then

place till they got tired. Sugar. but

Pine Crest Villa, Maitland. Fla, Aug.
s0.-Under the present high pressure
method of getting OUT a daily news
paper, morning or evening, it is utterly
impossible to avoid typographical and
other more serious errors. The proof
reader nowadays has no time to ex-
ercise his reasoning faculties and scan
bis proof for good sense" or correct
grammar" reliable names and state
ments." l have, therefore, ceased to
worry over such errors and leave their
correction to my intelligent readers.
All other persons, no doubt, will fail to
distinguish them. Last Sunday wrote
about Gen. ]. j. Dickinson of Ocala,
Fla, but the Times Union and Citi-
zen of that date contained an edito-
rial on the death of General Dicker-
SON" Yet the biographical sketch
called him "Gen. j. j. Dickinson"
was mislead into Dickinson" by the
Metropolis, although 1 knew, and
should have written, that his name was
'Dickison." This is another example
of the need of uniformity in spelling
names. We have Robson and Robson
and Robinson and Robertson, just as
we have Wilkison, and Wilkinson. and
TVilkerson. which creates confusion.
I have often remarked that the
Georgia boys in the regular army did
not come home after wives, but mar
