AUSTRALIANS MAY

sntense Rays Of Sun in the North Will

London, Dec. 1.-THE Sydney
correspondent of the London Globe
writes: If Professor Macmillan
Brown may be accepted as an
authority, a white Australia
will be unknown in the remote
future, at any rate, so far as the
uorthern portion of the Common
wealth is concerned. The learned
professor contends that it will be
impossible to accimatize the white
man sufficiently to enable him to
5nhabit the Northern Territory,
other than as a temporary risideut,
and that it will ultimately behold
the evolution of black race.
According to Professor Brown,
che impossibility of the Northern
Territory becoming a white man S
country consists in the fact that
the violent rays of the sun in tro-
zoicai countries were found to des-
troy the nerve tissues in the white
man. They have already been
used by Finsen and others for the
eradication of lupus and other
diseases. Therefore. it is not alone
The TROPICAL heat, but also the tro'
NAL light, that makes white

HUNT ENDS IN
A SAD TRAGEDY
E. II. Bracket Of Brownsville
Accidentally Killed.
Load of Bird Shot Fired Into Arm as lie
Was Placing Gun in Ambulance
Suecumbed to Wound After
Being Brought to Town.

The accidental wounding of E.
H. Bracket of Brownsville, which
occurred near Harrington Wednes-
dav afternoon. as reported in TIE
HERALD, termiHated fatally this
morning about half past FIVE O'Clock
in this city, the unfortunate man
having been brought to town last
night by special train for surgical
aid. The particulars of the sad
tragedy are about as follows:
After spending two days with a
party on hunting expedition near
Harliugen, Mr.. Bracket, with the
remainder of the party, was prepar-
ing to return to Harrington. As he
was laying the guns in the ambul-
ance, enc of them, which had by
some oversight been left loaded
was fred, while the nuzzle was
pointed at Mr.. Brackets right
Iarm and within six inches of it.
The entire load of bird shot entered
the fleshy part of the arm about
FIVE inches below the shoulder
and, being at such close range
even the wadding and part of the
sleeve of his sweater were forced
nto the wound. The flesh was ter
ribly lacerated, and the bone shat
tered and the wound bled very
: profusely.

l Harrington as quickly as possible
