THE PRESIDENTIAL POT HUNT.

From Louisville Courier-Jour1al.
The President has utterly confound-
ed DR.. Long and other nature stud
ents by coming out of the jungle wip-
ing the gravy from his chin and de !
claring I'VE ate all except the bob
cat" There can be no sort of question
as to the right of any citizen to take
his gun and his dogs and go n the
woods for food. If we accept the Pres
ident's statement as being literally
true we must acquit him of all char
ges of bloodthirstiness, as it is clear
that he was merely fesh-hungry.
DR.. Long may not believe that the
President really ate all of the game
he killed, but the tale is altogether
probable. Few Of US have ever expe-
rienced a burning desire to go into a
lonely place in the middle of the will
derness to eat three bears, six deer,
and a number of small animals and
waterfowl, but non of us is Presi-
dent Roosevelt.
1t will be recalled that a syndicate
writer some two years ago published
a 4AOhDS GHCAA NHNN 0S
cry mans ideal rather than a true
account of what was put upon the
Presidents table. In a day or two
there came a response in which Mr..
Roosevelt declared that he ate a hard
boiled egg and toast for breakfast,
soup and crackers for luncheon, and
sometimes the meat out of the soup
for dinner. 1t was plain to the way
faring man that nc one could do the
heavy lifting incident to the discharge
of the duties of President for 365
days on such a diet, but in view OF
the fact that the reputation of Theo
dore Roosevelt for truth and verac
ity' was good, We were forced to ac
cept his statement as being at least
approximately true. A new light is
now thrown upon the problem of how
the President subsists. He makes
out for $50 days on hard boiled eggs
and toast and soup, and catches VI
by going into the woods for fifteen
days and eating real food. Quite nat
rally he feels a central yearning fol
three bears and a half dozen bucks
by the time his holiday rolls around
He borrows a steamboat and a pack
of hounds, a squad of reporters and
a few guides and disappears into the
timber to gorge. In a little while we
hear a mighty crashing in the cane
brakes. We see the smoke of the
camp fire curling heavenward against
a turquoise sky. The camp fire burns
low, the smoke disappears. There is
another rafting in the jungle and
ane President burst forth into the open
feeling as sleek and well-fed as a boa
constructor who has just swallowed
an antelope. He returns to his duties
as fit as the ~proverbial fiddle. For the
next $50 days he is ceaselessly busy
in patriotic employments, now and
hen taking a hare boiled egg as he
would a capsule, or pouring home a
plate of soup to tide him over the
days activities. No e eating will
be lone until there is another oppor-
tunity to plunge into the sylvan soli-
tudes and beat up something really
fit to eat.
While humanitarians may disagree
as to whether the sport of hunting is
justifiable the position that the Presi-
dent should not go after a square
meal now and then is not tenable.
Let Dr.. Long hide his diminished
head.

THE UNREST OF THE NATION.

The purveyors of public thought
who mostly live in the big colleges
down east and who are supposed to
know everything worth knowing, see
or think they see in the ~pervasive So
cial unrest a letting down of our buoy
ant confidence in our republic and its
destiny They say We are questioning
ourselves and our institutions with
al open ~mindedness, if not with a
severity, thai a decade g would
have been deemed almost reasonable.
They think that we are beginning to
wonder in our hearts whether our
great experiment is after all so great
as it once appeared or rather that we
are coming to see that it is an expert
ment merely.

Lightning Flashes.

Lightning flashes in storm are
found by an English observer to be
much less irregular in period than
they appear Such storms have usu-
ally two foci = sometimes three =
from which the flashes radiate, and
the discharges from each come at
regular intervals. The apparent IT.
regularity is due to the varying rates
of the different centers. In storm
of July, 1905, the two foci were
about mile and half apart, and IN
an hour the northern center emitted
80 flashes at intervals of 10, 30, 40
so and 80 seconds, and the southern
center gave 16 flashes at intervals or
IT, "a and 81 seconds. Another un-
explained observation is that just be-
fore each great flash there Is mo-
mentary faint lighting up of the SKY
in the storm region.

Beer, whisky and tobacco have
been consumed so freely that the in
ternal revenue for the last fiscal year
ran about SIS, 100000 above that of
the year before and $S,0O0,00O above
the estimates made last fall, when
one-third of tie year had passed.
During the first quarter of the cur
rent fiscal year the receipts went
more than $4,5OO,OOO above those of
the corresponding quarter in the last
year, and the Commissioner esti-
mates that, although the tax is about
to be removed from alcohol used in
the arts the total internal revenue
collections in the present year will
rise to $2OO,O00,000, an increase of
$40, 100000 over the last year.

A hole is made in the bottom of the
can which shall suffice to let all the
water run out in twenty-four hours.
The piece of cardboard must be about
twenty-six inches long and six inches
wide, and is cut out as shown in the
diagram. This is set up on the tin
can by means of wires.
A stiff wire twenty inches long has
q small piece of cork fastened to one
end, and a shaving of cork at the
other, this last piece of cork to float
in the water of the can, which is to be
open at the top. The bit of cork at
the top, which is to act as pointer,
can also help to steady the wire BY
having two needles inserted so that
they will move up and down in the
groove, being fixed crosswise.
One of the needles will thus serve
as a pointer; and to mark out the
hours on the cardboard one simply
lets the water run out for an hour
from the opening at the bottom, and
going to the card, makes mark;
the other hours are determined in the
same way.

The explanation that laughter is
disappearing on account of the sad
ness of the modern view of life is dis
carded by Signor F. Franceschinl, an
Italian psychologist. He concludes
that mirth, like poetry, depends upon
imagination, and that the develop
ment of the reasoning powers has
tended to Danish the distortion that
makes things seem funny. The more
the Imagination is brought under the
control of logic the less DO we laugh.
Education is now scientific and prac-
teal, and to more than smile Is be-
coming characteristic of simpler
and more natural culture, where inn
agination still holds sway and people
have not forgotten how to laugh.

Hog of Brilliant Color.

That really beautiful species the
Red River hog of West Africa is now
well represented in the zoo. In COM
mon with other juvenile wild pigs
the Red River hog is striped in the
early part of its life. When about
three months old it loses it's mark
ings and the body has a spotted APP
pearance.
The adult is one of the most bril-
liantly colored mammals in existence,
but its bright red hue no doubt har-
monies with It's surroundings. the
soil in many parts of West Africa
being red. 1t is of an elegant shape
and with its tufted tail and long.
pencilled ears has considerable pre-
tentions to beauty.
Though it has not the enormous
tusks found in many of the wild
swine the Red River hog is not de-
void of means of defense. It's face is
protected by hard callosities on each
side, just bellows the eyes, and there
is a bony ridge on each side of the
upper jaw And that these growths
are not merely ornamental is proved
by the fact that this animal can hold
its own with the wart hog, species
provided with formidable upturned
