A SENSE OF DIRECTION.
The Prime Requisite For Making a

The Prime Requisite For Making n
True WOOdsnan.
A sense of direction | should name
as the prime requisite for him who
would become a true woodsman, de-
pending Oh himself rather than on
guides. The faculty is largely devel-
Oped of course by much practice, but
it must be Unborn. Some men possess
it; others do not just as some men
have mathematical bent while to
others figures are always a despair. 1t
is sort Of extra, having nothing to
do with criterions Of intelligence or
mental development like the repeater
movement in a watch. A highly edu-
Gated, cultured man may lack it; the
toughest possess it. Some who have
never been in the woods or mountains
acquire in the space of a vacation
fair facility at picking a way. and !
have met, a few who have spent their
lives on the prospect trail and who
were still and always would be as
helpless as the newest city dweller.
1t is a gift, a talent If you have its
tinieSt germ you can become a trav
eler of the wide and lonely places.
II you have it not you may as well
resign yourself to guides.-Stewart Ed
ward White in Outing Magazine.

to the same family OF amphibians as

Both are PATCHED from the egg. and
both pass through the tadpole stage

The Saddle.

Early Greeks and Romans rode
horses bareback. They regarded it as
effeminate to ride in a saddle. The
modern saddle. with p0mmel. crupper
and stirrups. was unknown to the an

to his cavalry. AID the bareback riders
Of the German forests used to laugh at
them. Saddles with trees came into

people used to get the Tampa papers

them until noon. and sometimes not
then. Thursday evenings Times and

the Tampa evening papers, and wishes
that its esteemed contemporaries
would bestir themselves to have the
matter adjusted.

Few men in the government service
ever cherished warmer affection for
their employer than the late Dr.
Charles f. Macdonald, of Springfield
Mass, who was for years superintend
ent of the money order division of the
post office department in Washington
and whose will, when he died severa'
years ago, was found to contain a be
quest ,o0f $4,000 to the government fol
the improvement of the money order
system. After long consideration the
government finds it is inexpedient tc
accept the bequest, and the money will
probably be turned over to the estate
But the motive That prompted the be
quest remains recognized and undis
puted.

Thaw will not take advantage of legal
devices to thwart a thorough examin-
alton by such a commission. He is
said to 10 eager for chance to prove
that he Is sane. Thaw is credited with
saying: 4
Il will submit 10 all phases of ~
examination that is rational and rea-
sOnable"
Thaw is not convinced that Justice
Fitzgerald will find it necessary to APP
point commission in lunacy, but he
resents the possibility of the general
public inferring from the fact that
his own counsel opposes District Attor-
ney Jerome's move for the appoint
ment of a commission, tssi. he shrinks
from the ordeal of facing such body
Thaw is in high spirits over the
affidavits drawn in his behalf and de-
livered to Justice Fitzgerald. He is
especially pleased with the affidavit
prepared by his mother, which states
taht there has been no insanity in the
Thaw or Copley families in four gen.
erations.
Counsel for Thaw shares the pris-
oner's belief that Justice Fitzgerald
will not find it necessary to appoint
commission.
On the other hand. District Attor-
ney Jerome is confident of the APP
pointment of commission and an ad-
iournment CT court on Wednesday I'M
til the commission will be prepared to
present its report. Mr.. Jerome. it is
stated, will not add to the array Of
affidavits which already he has placed
in Justice Fitzgerald's hands, and I'M
less the latter asks for further infor-
nation the states written argument
for the appointment of a commission
will close with the presentation of Mr.
Jerome's brief this morning.

DESERTED.
pitffu; Condition of Children Whom
Parents Left.


The worst case of restitution ever
found in Flint was discovered by the
police Wednesday when they investi-
gated reports that four small children
were starving to death.
What the authorities found corrob-
Grated the report. In a house reeking
with filth, the only furniture a broken
chair, caved-in stove, one cot and a
few rags, were the four children of
Albert H. Keiser, who disappeared last
Saturday and has not been seen since
The mother left some time prior to
that and took an infant with her.
For five days and nights these chii-
dren, the Oldest but IL and the young
est aged 4 years, have existed alone
Without food or warmth, they huddled
together, wrapped in their few rags,
and waited. Waited for the return Of
an unnatural father and mother who
had forsaken them. The only food in
the house was a few crumbs of crack
ers handed them by some neighbor.
Three had slept on the dilapidated cot,
and the other on the floor.
Their faces were pinched with hun
ger, and they shivered with the cold
as they were taken to the county farm
pending an investigation of their case.
