rose stupendous cliffs, some almost per-

sage brush that shone like copper or

After a time the road became so
steep that the horses barely crept
along. Behind us the valley began to
take on the hazy blue tints of dis
lance, while far up in front of US the
morning sun fell on towering peaks
covered with virgin snow, cleaning
like the pearly tints of an ocean shell.

| About the most dangerous place to
| seek shelter in thunder storm is
under an oak or elm tree, as was
proved again by the experience of a
dozen persons in Prospect Park,
Brooklyn, only a short time ago. This
fact has long been known to scientists,
but many persons are killed every
year by lightning because Of the lack
or disregard of this knowledge.
The total annual loss of life by

statistics on the subject have never
been kept A few years ago the Uni
ted States weather bureau attempted
something Of the kind in a tentative
way. Its experts figured out the av-
erage number Of persons killed by
| lightning yearly in the United States
as 312. But this was not complete.
From several States in the Union the
weather bureau received no reports.
The reports received did show that
of all that lightning killed only few

under trees, in doorways of barns or
near chimneys.
| While no record of the kinds of trees
most often struck by lightning has
ever been kept in the United States,
the lightningrod conference held in
England in 1881 reported that in the
United Kingdom the trees most often
struck were the elm, oak, ash and pop
lar. 1t is also said that the beech, birch
and maple were seldom touched by
lightning. 1t was an elm that was
struck in Prospect Park July 8.
For a period Of eleven years in the

A group of congressman who hap

to while away the time by exchanging
stories; and one of the statesmen
from Pennsylvania told this one re-
sarding constituent: This man. who

Keystone state, was appointed naval
officer at the chief port in the state.
He Immediately packed up his belong
ings and established himself in the
metropolis of the commonwealth. At
the end of four years the administra-
ton changed, and he relinquished his
office. When he returned to the vii
lage of his birth, his first visit was to
his aged mother. She greeted him at
fectionately and said:
MY boy, you have had four years
in lucrative federal office. Tell me,
now that it is over, what have you

He was nonplussed for the moment.

The stool pigeon and decoy duck are
familiar to all sportsmen. Live birds
such as parrots, crows, hawks, ETC.,
will beguile their kind into captivity
and appear to enjoy the fun, says the
New York Herald. But that animals
of certain amount of intelligence
should willingly betray their friends
and become decoys seems to the cas-
ual observer an act of treachery.
The most intelligent animals for
such work are the female elephants,
which are used in India to capture the
wild male elephants. This method is
not as much used in India at present
as the keddah work, but is still resort
ed to at times. The decoy animals
carry coils of rope attached to their
necks and are ridden by their owners
till near the scene of action. They
are used either day or night. but night
is preferred, for the wild elephant is
less suspicious then, and is easily
found by the noise he makes while
feeding and by the sound he makes
while striking the roots of the grass
he is eating against his legs to get
rid of the earth. If discovered by day
