SHOT EAGLES FROM TRAIN
Baggageman on Western Road Dis
played His Hardness with
Gun.

When the Missouri Pacific passenger
train was speeding on its way west
ward one day lately, says the Stafford
(KanD Republican, Tom Kinney,
baggagemen, saw an eagle perched on
the cross arm OF telegraph pole some
distance east of Kingman and made
the remark to himself: I'm get that
fellow this evening" He informed
the train crew of the prospect ahead
and the engineer and fireman agreed
to be on the lokout on the return trip
in the evening. and ii it should prove
that the Mr.. Eagle in question was
still there little of the air pressure
would be applied and the train brought
down to about Is miles an hour, so as
to give Tom the tip of the birds pres
ence as well as fairly good chance to
see what he could do with a rifle.
When the train arrived near the
place mentioned in the evening, not
only the eagle of the morning was in
sight but its mate had also come and
taken up position at the other end
of the telegraph pole cross bar. Tom
was given the tip by the steam being
applied and he made ready for action.
The boys say that when Tom fired the
two shots 1t sounded almost like one,
50 quick did they follow in succession,
and the result was that both birds de-
scended to mother earth, each pierced

LIFE IN CCE.:.N.
Professor of Cambridge Gng) Uni
versity Tells Some New and
Interesting Facts.

]. Stanley Gardiner, of Cambridge
university, has been exploring the
Indian ocean and gives it as his opin-
ion that at one time there was land
connection between Ceylon and Mad
agascar. But it is in describing the
wonders of the deep that his report
grows most interesting. "A very con-
siderable variety of deep-sea fish was
brought up" he says. AT least half
the number we secured seemed quite
new specimens, and, | believe, are
not described in aly textbook. Some
OF these had enormous eyes, some
only rudimentary eyes, the size of
a pins head. while some had no
eyes at an.
"One of the most interesting dis
coveries we made was that floating
life is exceedingly abundant at all
depths down to about 1900 fathoms
in seas $500 fathoms deep. BY float

the food of whales and deep-ocean

Closs 10 tne surface. A variety OF
enormous squids was fished out as
well as jelly fish and gigantic prawns
fully six inches long. Some of these
latter were blind, while others had
huge eyes, but nearly all of them
had phosphorescent organs, which
would naturally be due to the fact
that they live at depth where al
most total darkness prevails.
The blind varieties had enormous
feelers, or tentacles, some. of them
extending to twice the length OF
their own bodies. Some forms, such
as the water flea, which is only about
the size of a pins head in surface
water, we discovered six or ten times
that size in COO or 700 fathoms."

The cry, Death to the Americans!-

roar it forth with all the vindictive-
ness of hatred until the very atmos-
phere. heavy from the coming storm,
seems TO be filled with the cry:
He has gone!"
They feel"
Push on, comrades!"
The mine is ours!"
Such are some of the wild shouts
that break from the gang when Dick
vaniShes. They do not seem TO under
stand that he has ducked out of sight
because a gun sounds, and a bullet
clips by within an inch of his head.
Dick may be bold at times, but he
does not care to remain there and let
his enemies make target out of him.
At any rate, the shouts encourage
those who are more timid, and with a
mighty rush the Lopez contingent
hurls itself forward-there is a babel
OF rushing feet. loud shouts, strange
Mexican oaths, and on they come, pell.
nell.
Dick has given explicit directions to
his men, and not one fires a shot
alile the MeXicans are thus rushing
down upon them, waiting for a sign.

man passions that is about to break
forth in the camp.
Gradually Dick has gathered his
men at the most important points in
his estimation; they guard the only
entrance to the now deserted mine,
and cluster around the house of the
chief engineer and his lieutenants,
where the whole work will undoubt-
edly center.
A couple of men have been placed
in readiness Just inside the passage,
and as soon as the affair begins they
have orders to proceed at once to a
certain passage, and shoot down the
MeXicans whom they will find there
engaged with laying a mine with
which Lopez intends TO wreck the
mine in case his forces are defeated.
Knowing every foot of the route,
these two miners will be able TO tra-
verse II IN the darkness, and the ras,
cally conspirators will be apt to meet
a speedy doom.
This is only one OF the enemy's
plans OF which Dick has managed TO
lear, he has shrewdly employed a
man who is in the confdence of the
Mexican senor, and yet at heart in
sympathy with the Americans.
