A n.ce Of 1i,nber

The administrator of the government
Of British New Guinea CPapua) reports
the discovery OF an extraordinary tribe
Of marshland dwellers in that, island.
Owing to the character of the section
Of the country in which they live pc.
dcstrian locomotion is almost imprac-
ticable. The land is too swanapy to
be walked upon, and the entangled
tropical underground in the wide
stretches Of shallow water renders ca.
noeing almost impossible. The. native
dwellings are built i'll the trees above
the water level. As the result, Of these
conditions the natives are gradually
losing the use of their. lower, limbs.
They are unable, to walk or hard
| ground without suffering from bleed
ing feet. Their bodies have developed
enormously in the trunk, but the
thighs, legs and feet are diminutive.
In figure and carriage they are apelike.
Anthropologists are very mucli excited
over the discovery, and a scientific IN
yestigation into the habits and physical
characteristics Of the tribe Is promised
by the government.

7 The designations in tia United States
show no abatement. and 1t is
likely that some law will be passed by
congress to reurtail this practice. There,
have been eleven designations since
Jan. namely. three, l~ieutenants;; one
Junior lieutenant. one ensign, two pass
ed assistant surgeons, two naval con-
structors. one assistant constructor and
one second lieutenant Of marines. The
resignation OF the eight Naval acad-
envy graduates is especially serious.
The aggregate cost Of these officers for
education and salaries approXimates
$25O,OOO, for which they have rendered
but little service, and at this particular
time, when every one of the lower
grades is short of officers, the, resigna-
lions arc rather. embarrassing to the
navy department. Thus the construct
ors' corps, which on Jan. 1 consisted OF
forty members, still remains at the
same strength, and it will be utterly
| impossible TO increase it to seventy.
Ave during the next six years, as con.
templated by the law Of last March.

efficient builder OF vessels than Is de-
manded OF Il junior deck officer.

Concerning the large increase in the
number of MAJ eating tigers in India,
which is said to be due to the whole

quent difficulty on the part Of stripes"
in finding his usual food, it may be
pointed out that there is, a plague Of
elephants in Madras, owing ito.overpro-
lection. The damage done to crops

serious, and it is even hintedtthat many
human lives are sacrificed in@.the. en-
deavor to combat the nuisaneeshIt is
estimated that in the last twenty to
twenty-five years he number Of wild

have now become absolutely necessary.

-
Word was received from Washing
ton that Congressman charles
II. Burke, Of Pierre, has introduced
a bill in the house OF representatives
for the location of a federal building
in Mitchell.
Pearhaps to the general public this
announcement may come as some

stood that Congressman Burke has
stood ready to make this move IN
favor Of Mitchell. and his action will
be appreciated thoroughly by the
citizens Of this city. 1t is under
stood that Senator kittredge viii
introduce the same measure in tho
senate, and with these two indivld-
uals putting their personal effort be-
hind the project there car be ne
question of the success OF it in the
