ANIMALS AND SCENT.
eas Of The Miracles Of Nature Thai
IL Past undesstnudfnG.

oas Of The Miracles Of Nature That
II Past Understanding.
One Of the most interesting Of all the
miracles Of nature IL scent as applied
70 animals. The subject Is neither I'M
dsrstood nor expIainabIe. Whether II
Is sixth sense or marvellous devei.
opment Of one Of the FIVE ID uncertain.
Quite likely, however. 1t has very little
relation to that sense which we know
e. smell.
To the sportsman the quaity Of scent
Is extremely important. When the air
Is dry and the ground hard there is lit,
tie scent. When the wind Ii north or
east scent Is either largely wanting or
does not readily diffuse itself. A
southerly wind without rain and a
westerly wind, II not too rough, are
most favorable TO It. OF course IL the
wind Is strong II blows the scent away,
and severe storms entirely destroy IT,
It IL very difficult for dog TO follow
scent just after q shower, and 1t IL
dispersed by the hot sun as well AZ
by the storm. II Is fact also that
scent comes rs much from an animals
body az from Its feet.
There Is no time that dog will fol-
low a scent better than when the track
Ii made upon white frost II the frost
Ii thick over the track. of course the
scent Is buried. but as soon as 1t be-
gins TO disappear the dog follows II
easily. During thaws or melting snow
scent seems to dlssipate rapidly. Sled
paths, swamp bottoms. dry wood and
Ice are all bad for holding or preserv.
Ing scent. and so are sandy places and
OF course plowed fields when the feet
sink In so deep that the earth Is likely
TO fall over them.
Another peculiar thing about scent
IL that II generally ceases as soon as
the animal IL dead. This. at any rate,
IL the claitl. and. for that matter, al
most all knowledge concerning scent is
merely made by observation and is
rather unscientiAc, or at least liable to
be erroneous. II Is claimed also that
nature often protects animals In the
breeding season. 30 that they give out
but little scent For illustration, the
coon gives no scent from spring until
about the middle of August. when the
young begin to take care OF themselves,
and their scent increases with their
age and size. Both the rabbit and the
coon have very little scent, but the fox,
deer. moose and elk give out strong
scent and can be followed by dog
long after the track Is fresh. Birds
give but little scent, and It has been
claimed that quail close their feathers
closely when the dog is near and thus
destroy their scent altogether.
Whether scent as we understand II
as applied to animals is the same quail
ity that human beings possess in smell
Ing a flower Is uncertain Just how q
dog, for illustration. can distinguish
the track OF his master from that Of
some one else or from a score OF others
perhaps hours after the track has been
made il simply one Of those marvellous
miracles that are as incomprehensible
as eternity or lim'tless spaces-AmatsuF

NO LOSS FOR HOTTENTOTS.

Cape Town, Cape Colony, Oct. A.
Morengo and Morris, chiefs of the re-
bellious Hottentots of German South
Africa, have captured Jerusalem
camp between Warmbad and Schrst
Drift, after severe fighting, during
which Lieutenant Surmand and five
men we're killed and eight men we're
wounded The Hottentots sustained
no losses and captured all of the
stock and stores. Several Germans
were made prisoners. but after being
disarmed we're allowed to return to
Lieutenant General Won Trotha, com
mander of the German forces, with a
letter from Morengo saying that the
Hottentots were now in position to
take the offensive and would fight to
the finish
The German garrison at Kliplaath,
on hearing that Morengo was In the
vicinity, burned their stores. deserted
their post and retired to DescoEdes-
dam. The garrison at Nlsaas has been
strengthened by 900 men and a bat

New York, Oct. 1G.-Frederick A.

with the cotton leak scandal, surren-
dered to the United States marshal

ing all four collectively with having
conspired to defraud by procuring adj
vance information from Holmes con-
corning the governments correspond

Counsel for the defense moved for
the discharge of the prisoners on the
ground that the charge as alleged did
not constitute an offense against the

WERE CLOSE TO War.
France and Germany Narrowly Avsrtsd
Trouble.

Paris, Oct. 17.-Public opinion has
been wrought up during the present
week by the alleged revelations Of
Great Britain's readiness to invade
Germany on behalf of France. These
revelations, following the Franco-Ger.
man controversy over Morocco and
the open declaration of Prince Won
Buelow the German imperial chan
cellor, favorable to a Russo-German
approachment created feeling that
France was the center of dangerous
enmities and coalitions. Although
the alleged disclosures did not re-
ceive the slightest official recognition
they became the theme for discussion
throughout Europe and the intima.
lions that former Foreign Minister
Delcasse was responsible for them led
to violent attacks against him, one
journal going SO far as to accuse him
OF treason. M. Delcasse's reputation
of the reports, followed by the semi
official note saying that the published
reports upon the incidents accompany
ing the resignation of M. Delcasse,
and notably the details regarding the
cabinet council preceding his resig-
nation, are inexact, pricked the sensa-
tional bubble; but it had none the less
served to excite intense political bit
terness in the highest circles and dis
closed the sensitiveness Of French
statesmen to the maneuvers Of various
European powers to readjust their
ententes at the expense of France.
From the mass of contradictory re-
Violations and denials the fact stands
out that the Morocco controversy
took Germany and France dangerous
ly near the verge of war, and that
Great Britain, while not officially
promising military aid, stood ready to
give France her loyal support. The
bitterness aroused by the incident is
indicated by the calling of special
meeting of the association of the Par
sian press for October IS to consid-
er charges made that certain journals
are under the influence and in the pay
of foreign governments.

Hearing Of Arguments Of Demurrer In
St. Louis.
BURTON INDICTED LAST SPRING.
Charged With Using influence For
Rialto Grain Company Defendant
In Court Sat Quietly at the Side Of
His Attorneys.

st. Louis, Oct. 1S.--The hearing of
arguments by Judge vandeventer in
the United States circuit court on the
demurrer Of United States Senator
Burton of Kansas to the indictment,
charging him with having used his
influence in behalf of the Rialto Grain
and Securities company of st. Louis,
before the postoffice department be-
gan. Senator Burton was re-indicted
last spring, after his case had been
sent back by the supreme court, and
the Indictment charges him with
knowingly receiving compensation,
while a United States senator, for
services rendered in case then pend
ing in which the United States gov
eminent was interested. Attorney
Haynes Of Chicago, council for Bur-
ton, declared that the indictment fails
to charge that Burton knew of the
case then pending against the Rialto
company. He contended that the
word knowingly" in the indictment
only extends to the question of his
having accepted compensation, and
that 1t cannot be extended to be an
allegation that Burton knew Of the
case pending.
Attorney Haynes argued further
that while the indictment alleges that
Senator Burton agreed to receive
compensation for his services, 1t does
not set out with whom he agreed.
The indictment, he argued, does not
specify as to the services rendered
or when services were to be render
ed 1t is alleged by the indictment
Haynes stated that the question be-
ing investigated by the postoffice de-
partment was whether the Rialto
company had violated section $3.50 of
the criminal statutes. The only pow
er that makes such an investigation,
he argued, is court, and if the post
Office department was making such
an investigation it was right. Sena-
tor Burton was present at court and
sat quietly beside his attorneys.

UNION WAS DISSOLVED.
A New Flag Law Has Been Passed by
the RIksdag.

Stockholm, Sweden, Oct 1S.-The
union between Norway and Sweden,
existing since 1874, has been dissolv-
ed, both houses Of the riksdag hav-
ing passed the government bill re-
pealing the act Of union and recog-
nizing Norway AS state separate
from the. union with Sweden"
The lower house adopted the bill
without debate, but two or three men,
bers of the senate expressed the
opinion that the dissolution was an
irreparable misfortune and that the
time would come when Norway would
receive the benefits of the union. Both
houses subsequently passed the new
flag law.
The flag will be yellow cross on
a blue ground, the same as existed
prior to 1914, the union mark, now

CRITICISM OF JEWISH MAN.


Portland, Ore, Oct. 16.-Rev. Steph
en- S. Wise, Of Temple Beth, Israel, of
Portland, prominent Jewish divine,
in sermon to the congregation Sc
verely criticised the action of the exc
cutive committee of the inter-church
conference on federation. in exclud-
ing the American Unitarian associa-
ton from the forthcoming conference.
He advised the proposed conference,
instead of choosing its high sounding
title to have the courage and candor
to call itself by its right name, the
sectionally vision of Triteistic
churches.

war
