The Chatf1eld Paper Co} s sesso:

History, sacred and profane, furnish
 es many types of sportsman. The ear- Hest to deserve the name perhaps was one Samson, of the tribe of Dan. Against him, as against other goo,l men and true, went an indiscrininate love of the ladies all though his ca reer, but the unassertive way in which he put forth his mighty strength can- not fail to win the admiration of even those who have not stood before his picture, toying with a helpless lion. in the Brighton Municipal Museum. Here was man, by my fay! He killed a lion and never even wrote a book about it. He slew his enemies wholesale with weapon that had hitherto been used against nothing more formidable than the resistirg grasses of the Holy Land. He bursf his bonds with matter of fact ease that should make even the ''Handsuff'' King go green with envy. He toppled over the great building and died. blind and unrepentant, with those who had brought out their captive to make them sport. They got it.-F. G. Afialo in the Fortnightly Review"

zIGzAG TRIP.

Bark Blown Out of Her Course By
 Gale Lands Back in North River.
 well, shiver my timbers, ant shiver em again, if it hasn't taken my good ship a whole 1O3 days to gc from New York to Hoboken," quott Captain H. B. Fitzgerald as he stood on the deck of his bark, the Condue- tor, last night, and laughed till the tears rolled down his checks.
 But, then, we took a rather long way round.
 But just think of all the fun we had, papa" piped four-year-old miss by his side, who proudly proclaims herself, in rapid sterotyped form Miss. Geraldine Fitzgerald, sailor girl, sir, of the British bark Conduc- tor, Windsor, Nova Scotia"
 The fun" which Geraldine referred to was a continual streak of mishaps that kept her father at his wits end On September 27 the bark passed Hell Gate, bound for Lewisport, Nova Scotia, with crew of fifteen, to take on a cargo of lumber.
 After passing Block Island she en- countered a stiff gale from the west and was blown out of her course Northeast and east northest winds be- gan buffeting her when she struck 4l degrees north 61 degrees west, and she was lashed for six days. Soon, how. ever she was blown back northward till she touched 2 degrees north 67 degrees west. Again she was blown south by terrific gales and her sails were blown away When the captain began reckoning as the wind died down on November Ii, he found hls nearest port would be at Barbados, which he reached under jury rig Tn ten days.
 Misery loves company" said the captain, land had to laugh as I saw the W. H. Baxter three-master, going in right ahead of us. She had started with iron ore from Sherbrook to Sydney, Nova Scotia only about 100 miles away. The gales had got at her, and there we were meeting in the same faraway place. I've come back to put up in the Hoboken dry dock for complete overhauling, and then I'll try for Lewisport again."
 The coolest person on board the ship during the trouble, next to little Ger aldine, was the captains wife, Mary, who has been with him on his trips since their marriage, five years ago.

TETE TRUE SPORTSMAN.

The true, the ideal, sportsman has no environment, no center of distribution, no accurately defined geographic range. He lives in Balham or Belgra- via. He is of the peerage or the prole- tariat. He is a general officer on the active list, or a retired sergeant He prescribes drugs in a rural dispensary, or he soothes malades imaginaires in his consulting room in Harley street. He breaches in the village church or in the cathedral His hat hangs in the hall of the castle, on in the cottage porch. His income is fifty thousand a year or nothing. He rides cob or a thoroughbred; shoots with his grand fathers hammer gun or with the new est of hammerless elections; fishes with a hazel rod cut at the waterside or with the latest thing in split cane; sails the summer seas in a halfrater or in a Sunbeam. Sportsmanship, in short, is an instinct, a birthright, not commodity. Any one may buy it's ap- purtenances; no one can buy it's tenn perament,

as they are nicknamed by the Boers or
 account of the dusty color their aboo- men acquires from the habit of creep ing into holes in the ground, who live in the steppes region of the north Transvaal as far as the Limpopo.
 As their complexion is almost a pitch black and their stature only about four feet, they are quite distinct from their tall Bantu neighbors and from the yellowish Bushmen.
 The dogs" or "yultures, :" as the Zu- Jus call them, are the lowest of the low," being undoubtely cannibals and often making meal of their own aged and infirm, which the Bushmen never do.
 Their habitations are holes in the |ground, rock shelters and lately a few novels. They have no arts or indus tries or even any weapons except those obtained in exchange for ostrich feathers, skins or ivory.
 Whether they have any religious ideas it is impossible to say, all inter- course being restricted to barter car ried on in @ gesture language, for mo- body has ever yet mastered their tongue, all that is known of their lan- guage being that 1t is absolutely dis tlnct from that of both the Eastman and the Bantu.
 There are no tribes, merely little family groups of from thirty to fifty individuals, each of which is presided over by headman, whose functions are acquired not by beredity, but by personal qualities.
 So little information is available con- cerning the Kattea that it is impossi- ble to say anything about their racial ffinities.-Scientiflc American.
