it was tiger" We regretted as we drove
on that we had not stopped to examine it,
resolving to give it a trial on our return.
Coming back We found that 1t was square,
log-hewn building, abutting on the road
with no front door at all, the logs fitting
so closely there were no means of seeing
anything whatever inside.
The rear of the structure was enveloped
in a large brush arbor reaching on both
sides to the mountain ravine. Tackled on
the front of the tiger was the following

entrance.
Looking carefully, we could see the shad-
owy outlines Of three men and one woman
gliding down the arbor ambuscade to the
ravine. When the five minutes had expired
we went to the rear, found a door open
and entered. In the room we found two
barrels Of whisky. one barrel of brandy,
modern rubber syphon, a patent bung-
starter, bottles of all sizes. jugs etc. There
were also two rifles, three shotguns and
two pistols in plain view.
There was also a bed, cook stove. cook

foolishness of the orthodox community OF

four hours, the bridegroom returned home

Fly-Repelling Mixtures.
From the Ohio Farmer.

Professor Day of the Guelph College of
Agriculture gave US his recipe for a fy-re-
pelling mixture, as follows: One tablespoon
full Of crude carbolic acid and one quart Of
seal oil or any kind of cheap fish Oil; mix
and apply with q brush. Applied in this
way 1t retains its effectiveness almost
week, while If applied with a hand sprayer
often say three or four times a week.
have used various mixtures of this kind.
among them a number of patented and
highly recommended ones. I have found
none as yet. however. which proved ma
terially better than any other, and my
home made mixtures are giving fully as
good service as any other have tried. The
mixture of crude carbolic acid and fish oil
is probably as cheap as any fly repeller can
be made, but we cannot easily get the fish
Oil except in the large cities, and sometimes
not very readily even there / use mix
ture of Oil of tar, which I can get at IS
cents a gallon, and kerosene, and some
times add little crude carbolic acid, al
though this Is not absolutely necessary.
This may be applied with brush or rag.
I prefer to spray It on with one Of the 90
cent hand sprayers. But find that in order
to be an effective protection the application
must be repeated at far shorter intervals
than is usually recommended. Whether
you use homemade mixture or one OF
the patented fly repellers, once a day is
none too often when you apply 1t with
sprayer, and prefer to spray my cattle
not less than twice day. It Is quickly
done, Ii not expensive, and what lot OF
torment 1t saves the poor brutes.

WHALES DIVE DEEP.
Something About the Habits Of the
Ocean Monsters.
From knowledge.

Ocean Monsters.
From knowledge.
Both whalers and naturalists have usu-
ally held that when whales Sound" they
descend to great depths. One writer on
the subjects estimates that the larger men,
bers of the group dive fully thousand
yards. In memoir published in Belgium
DR.. Racovitza challenges this belief, and
states that in his opinion. 100 yards is the
maximum depth to which any whale can
dive. and that many species cannot reach
anything like that limit. Says the writer:
Why should whales want to go to such
depths? All whales sound for the purpose
of obtaining food. and in the profound
darkness of 1000 yards what food could
they get? Those species which feed on
animalcules might. perhaps. obtain what
they want But how about the species
which feed on fishes and cuttles? At
depth of a thousand yards they certainly
could not use their eyes to detect nom
luminous species, and we have no evidence
whatever they feed on the self-luminous.
deep-sea fish and cuttles; II, indeed. there
be any of the latter. On the contrary, the
available evidence indicates that they feed
on ordinary light-dwelling fishes and cut
ties which live in much shallower zones.
But this Is not all 1t is known that the
effects of pressure Of more than three
atmospheres prove fatal to human life;
and. although we may believe that whales
can stand treble this pressure, or nine at
mospheres. which would occur at about
ninety yards depth, is it conceivable that
they could resist the effect of ten times the
latter pressure, or ninety atmospheres?
Moreover, does 1t seem possible that a
whale, whose body is only slightly heavier
than water at ordinary pressure. could ex-
ert the muscular force necessary to propel
that body to a depth of a thousand yards?
DR.. RacovitZa contends further that
whales never sleep. One Of his arguments

English Farmers for the Veldt.
From the London Evening Standard.


A committee of the Imperial South Afri-
can Association has been formed for the
purpose of establishing small county colo
Mes on the veldt The different county
organizations throughout the realm will
make a selection of farmers suitable for the
enterprise, and each settlement will be
named after the British county which sup
plies the emigrants Certainly it is desir-
able to strengthen the white element" in
South Africa. especially when an invasion
of Indians and Chinese appears to be at
hand. And the best form of that strength
ening is British emigrants used to coun
try life and work. But is the farming class
we'll adapted for the purpose? In the first
place. one might have thought that 1t was
wanted at home. Among the gentlemen
named as taking part in the scheme are the
Duke of Westminster and other great land
owners. They may find no difficulty in se-
curing tenants. but small 'squires are not
SO fortunate. Moreover. 1t must be feared
that the English farmer will not easily
adapt himself to the conditions of South
African agriculture, as different as could
be in all respects to those in which he has
been reared The more successful he has
been at home the less inclined he will be to
go to school again.

HANDHoLDING IN KANSAS.
Etiquette of the Evening Call Laid
Down in Emporia.
From the Emporia Gazette.

An important question was up for dis
cussion last night at the regular meeting
Of the amalgamated handholders' union.
Rae Witherington. who holds a high Of
fee in the national union. was accused by
a certain West Side girl of being "slow,"
that he had called at her home a few even
ings ago; and after making a few shy at
tempts at holding her hand had given up
and hadn't done thing but talk the re-
mainder of the evening. and that in her
opinion he wasn't a mt or competent per-
son to hold the place he did in the hand
holders union.
This story reached the ears Of Wither-
ington's enemies in the union. and they at
once brought charges of "incompetency"
before the exalted strangleholder," who
decided to investigate the charges. With
erington was called before this official and
told his "side." He said that he had made
a conscientious effort to hold this girl S
hand. and when she refused the sixth time
and had threatened to call her father, he
had desisted. thinking that further effort
would be rude and ungentlemanly.
The West Side girl was then called on
the witness stand and asked to testify
She said that Rae had tried six times, but
that none of the girls in her crowd thought
of letting a young man hold her hand I'M
der eight trials. She said she had heard
Of certain girls that did. but that she
thought no lady who cared anything for
She admitted having threatened to call her
father. but that the young man ought to
have had better sense than to think that
she meant to do 1t.
When her testimony was completed a
long discussion arose as to how long a
young man could persist in trying to hold
a young lady's hand without being con-
sidered rude and ungentlemanly, and how
soon self-respecting young lady could
give up without acquiring the reputation
of being "easy" 1t ended by the exalted
strangleholder giving his opinion that three
attempts were enough and that six was too
many, and that any girl with melting
point either above or below these figures
was to be boycotted by the union.
The question of how long a young gentle
man should know a young lady before he
held her hand was also brought up for dis
cussion. After considerable debating and
celebrating by the officials it was decided
that young man ought to call on girl
at least two times and not more than four
times before he was entitled to sit in the
hammock with her and hold her hand.

to be Satirist, owned by Clifton Laughlin

though the field was prettily punched the
entire distance.
Quite a thrilling accident occurred just
before the second heat of the IA pace.
While the horses were scoring Hysotis' rein
broke and the horse started to run away.
His driver, Mr.. Thomas c. johnson, who is
sixty years of age, retained his presence of
mind. however. and with rare nerve climbed
out on the shaft and managed to bring the
frightened animal to stop after he had
run about 200 yards The crowd appreci-
ated the display of nerve and roundly ap-
plauded Mr.. Johnson upon his return to
the stand. The accident SO ratified Hysotis
that he was far from himself in the heat
which followed and he was shut out.

Two jumping contests were also held yes
terday afternoon. The first was high
jump, in which performance only counted.
There were but two contestants-Lady
Ranalah, belonging to Louis Keith of
kelthton, Va, and Lady Belle, the property
of w. c. Hef1ing of Leesburg Va. After a
splendid exhibition the former was given
the verdict his best performance being six
feet
The other contest was among green jump
ers. Miss Daisy Prescott's Timber Jim
took this event; Billy, owned by Mr.. Abb
bolt of Rockville, was second, and Daisy,
the property of Mr. Frank c. Hutton, was
third. Three and a half feet were scaled
in this event.
The jumping features, which were in
augurated this year at the suggestion of
Mr.. Frank Hutton, proved to be a SUE
cess, and it is thought likely they will
hereafter be a regular feature of the fair.
Mr.. Hutton was in charge of the contests.
