words, was the last 10 speak in the
negative. and all were anxious to hear
what he had to say. When the time
approached for him to speak, he ose
slowly, walked to the other sid. of
the room and rang the bell. He or
dered a glass of hot whiskey punch
and drank it OF with great gusto.
Then. turning to his opponents. he
handed the empty glass to the lead

to add that Keys carried the decision
for the negative.

looking woman was sitting on one of
these seats, evidently taking umbrage

glasses on her thin nose and inquired:
Ny good man. are you accustomed
to smoke in the presence Of a LADY,"

REMARKABLE FEAT OF MEMORY.
Children Learn and Recite Thousands
of Bible Verses.

The pastor of a church in a Jersey
town wished 20 stimulate the memo
ries Of the children in his Sunday
school. To this end he offered two
prizes. the first to pupils over and
the other TO pupils under twelve who
during an interval of three months
would learn to recite the greatest
number of verses from the Bible. A
committee was appointed to hear the
contestants for the prize and register
the number OF verses memorized.
The first prize was taken by
young girl Of sixteen who had com
mitted to memory during this interval
of ninety days 1926 verses Of Scrip
ture. These passages covered the en-
tire New Testament with the excep
ton Of two genealogies and included
liberal selections from Psalms, Gene
sis and other parts of the Old Tesla
ment. The winner of the second prize
was a little sister of the other prize
winner, a child of eleven years She
had learned Ills verses. During the
contest some 1900 verses were mem

his weird stories,
Dunstan. the naturalist, discovered
1t not long ago while wandering on the
shores of the lake Attracted by
cries of pain and terror from his dog,
he found the animal held by black,
sticky bands. which had chafed the
skin to the bleeding point These
bands were branches of newly dis
covered carnivorous plant which has
been aptly named the land octopus-f
The branches are flexible, black,
polished, without leaves, and secrete q
viscid fluid They are also furnished
with a great number of suckers. with

victims. II certainly deserves to be
classed as the octopus of the vegetable

EAGLE skILLFuL IN STRATEGY.
Cunning Devices Used BY the Mon
arch Of the Air.

Ornithologists are inclined to dis
courage the idea that eagles are in
the habit of attacking large animals.
but contest Witnessed By an observ-
er dispels such theory. The battle
was between an eagle and a stag.
The bird singled out from a herd
one particular buck. which it succeed
ed IN driving from the rest It struck
the animal with its powerful wings.
Knocked il down and finally killed t.
A still more remarkable spectacle is
well authenticated An eagle attack
ed a fawn in the highlands of Scot
land. The cries OF the little one were
answered by its dam. which sprang
upon the eagle and struck it repeated
ly with it's forefeet Fawn, deer and
eagle rolled down declivity, the bird
was dislodged from it's hold an the
fawn rescued
Many traditions are extant as TO
the carrying of Of children by eagles
The most recent case bearing close
scrutiny is one which happened in
South Africa. A Boer farmer whose
stock had been harried by eagles lay
in ambush for the robbers and saw
one Of them descend and carry of the
5-year-oid child Of one Of his Kafir
servants. He shot the bird, which.
with the child still clutched in it's
grip. fell into a thorn bush The bird
was dead, but the child was little
hurt.
Two eagles will stalk a covert in
concert While one conceals itself
the other beats about the bushes with
great screaming, driving out its quar-
~ for the hidden eagle TO swoop
down upon. An even more insidiOus
method has been observed. An eagle
seeing a sheep on the edge of a prec-
ipice flew al it. screaming shrilly and
with forceful beat Of wing hurled ii
into the valley below, where it could
deyour it as leisure. In the light of
such records there is good reason for
believing the legend OF the eagle drop
