The Blue Gnu.

It would be hard to imagine a more fantastic looking animal than the blue gnu, which ranges in South Africa from the Orange river north to VictO- rla Nyanza. It suggests to one coming unexpectedly upon 1t and seeing 1t for the first time a sort of impossible dream creature, a cross perhaps be- tween a buffalo and a nightmare. Te the buffalo belong the neck and horns, but the tail and the hind quarters are those of a horse. The legs are deer's legs, but the head resembles that of no other living animal There seems to be no doubt that the wild grotesqueness of the appearance of the gnu Is a pro vision of nature to protect the animal When frightened or disturbed these re markable antelopes go through a series of strange evOlutiOns and eXtraordina- " pastures In order to enhance as much as possible the oddity and hid cousness of their appearance and to frighten away lntruders.

Hidden Tattoo Marks.

An escaped convict was on trial be- fore a French court, and the question turned upon his identity with prison CT known to have been tattooed. There was no appearance of colOred marks upon his arm, and the question submit ted to NJ. Leroy, the medico-legal ex- pert, was whether the man had ever been tattOOed. NJ. Leroy applied strong friction to the skin of the mans arm. This had the effect of bringing out white lines as cicatrices, with a slight bluish tint. By this means the word Sophie" was plainly legible in white marks on the Teddened skin. This proved the identity of the convict.

NEW PLAYERS.
Fresh blood Appears on the

White Pass. ll: Third Infantry, 5.

White Pass, l4: Third Infantry, 3.
 There has been an infusion of much new blood in the Skagway baseball world. The game between those who wore the uniform of the White Pass cIub and a team from the first battalion ofthe Third infantry, Sunday, demon strated that there is no dearth of good timber iu this city for baseball recruits. Notwithstanding the absence of four or five of the best of the White Pass play CTS. substitutes were secured who played good ball. The new players in- cIuded A. B. Newell on first, J. P. ROg- CTS in the right field and E. F. Pittman in the center field. All Of them played good ball, and PiJtmau never failed to get to first base, at least, every time he came up.
 While the score was largely against them and they were outplayed all through the game, the soldiers showed the possession of some good material. Meyers, who pitched throughout the game. showed a capacity for good work, notwithstanding that he was wild yes terday and permitted many men to get 70 first on balls. Mann played well be- hind the bat, and the teams captain, Fryar, was excellent at second.
 The work of Skagway's battery, Gaulr and Blanchard, was excellent.
 The White Pass lineup contained many changes. It was;
 Gaul,, pitcher: Blanchard, catcher; Barry. shorts,op; Newell, first base; sanford. second; Mcintyre, third; Eog- CTS. right field; PitJman, center, and olson. left.
 The score by innings was:

The Art of Naming Horses.

I was asked to give the name for a horse the other day. This is not near so easy as you might imagine. It Is very seldom that the name of horse is altogether appropriate or is entirely satisfactory to the owner. Striking ex- amples of success may be found in the astronomer who drives a tandem and who christened his leader Apo gee and his wheeler Peri-gee, and in the medical student with a similar team who called his leader Os FrOntis -Iondon GraDhic.

Oriental Rugs Cashmere
and Afghan
Low Prices Made Lower

A third or more has been taken off the
price of every Oriental rug in the store. ss
This sweeping reduction ought to be es-
pecially interesting to people of moderate
means, because it brings within a range Of
$50 to $40 two of the most useful and beau
tiful types of Oriental rugs-AtghaHS and
CaSkn1sres--that used to cost $75 to 1926.
Aghan rugs can be told at glance by the deep,
warm afghan" red which characterizes them;
peculiarly beautiful color that is seen in no other
Oriental rug Its pile, too, has softer luster than
any other Oriental weave, because the mountain
bred sheep, which supply the wool used in it, have
finer, sker leeces than sheep raised in lower past
ures. Notwithstanding its beauty and its fineness,
it is rug that will stand hard wear and does exce-
lently well in hail. Eight by ten feet is the ap.
proximate size of most OF them. W 6sa
Cashmere rugs have no pile at all, but hard,
closey-woven lusterless surface, made beautiful by
boldness Of design and exquisite coloring in brown
ish red and deep blue tnts. For the dning-room il
is cleanly rug, having no pile to catch and hold
crumbs. In every way it is sanitary rug its
ghtness permits it to be easily taken up and shaken.
Though lighter than other rugs ii wears as well as
those with long pile Like the Afghans, the sizes
about eight by ten feet and the prices about
the same; $50 to S75 now securing you good one.
Cashmere rugs can almost be used as portieres or
covers for couches and tables.
These must not be confounded with Sumac
rugs, a poorer quality, sometimes palmed off as
Cashmere by unserupulous dealers.
