This insect has a little round body, very
long legs and absolutely no eyes. Brought
out from its gloomy haunts into the light
OF the sun. it dies almost immediately
Yet, in its home. far beneath the surface OF

and certainty az any of It's eyed relatives on

the beetle was several feet in front OF the
scorpion. and divided from it by a assure

The spider found in these caves is OF a

insects which inhabit the same subterran-

Instances OF blindness among the crus-
tacea are occasionally found. The most
noted is that Of the blind crayflsh of the
Mammoth Inc other caves Of Kentucky
and Indiana. The animal inhabits shall

some fame through the popular belief
that they lived in subterranean waters

real explanation OF their appearance during

lakes and torrents Of the Andes, are killed

an eruption and are swept down to the
valleys below by the currents Of water
issuing from the volcanoes.

In Texas a few years ago. As the United

Among snakes there are four species on

NAVN'S FASTEST RACING BOAT.
-- - ---
Famous Victory Of The cutter Daring. Lost
In the samOan Hurricane

The fastest racing boat hat ever bro ught
shekels and glory to the American navy,
or to any other for that matter. was the
cutter Daring. When she went down with
the Vandaiia in the great storm WHICH sank
almost every vessel in the harbOr at Samoa
h left behind her an unbroken record OF
victories.
None OF these was more sensational
than the one she easily plucked from "a
crew of the Iron Duke, when the Daring
was attached 10 the Wisconsin, h on
the Asiatic station. Appropriately enough.
the crushing defeat was administered in
Centennial year, 1870, and it was the more
significant because the English boat had
given the challenge and had fairly rushed
upon its fate.
When a bluejacket wants a race he goes
about it in his own peculiar fashion. He
doesn't write out a challenge and send it
with due fOrmalities. He does not APP
point a committee TO extend il or post
notice in a conspicuous place"
He simply overs his boat. climbs into
it TO the number Of twelve or fourteen,
pulls toward the ship whose crew he wants
10 race. and tOsses his oars as he comes
under her bow. The challenge has been

This sort Of invitation doesn't mean
that the other crew il TO hustle into its boat
for a race right then and there. On the
contrary, there is a lot Of preliminary
work yet 10 be done, much Of IL being Of
a strictly financial nature.
Thousands of dollars change hands over
these races. The officers themselves are
generally ready TO back the honor Of their
own ship with substantial proof Of their
loyalty.
As for the average sailor man he digs up
every cent he can rake and scrape. As a
winner OF these shekels the Daring. az
before mentioned. is Of blessed memory
except TO her rivals.
OF these latter none was more confident
than the Iron Duke crew. The Wisconsin
was already at anchor when the British
vessel came into the harbor one fine day,
her advent being greeted with the atten-
ton every newcomer commands.
She hadn't been in very long before she
lowered a boat. The men on the Wisconsin
idly watched. They continued to observe,
but without much concern. as the British
cutter was pulled toward the Wisconsin,
heading acre ~ her bows.
Then the unexpected happened. To the
surprise and intense delight Of the Ameri-
cans up went the British oars and a little
thrill Of excitement swept the wi lening
ripple around the harbor. A challenge had
been given. race was to come.
And II was a race that meant "A whole lot
more than "A mere contest between two
crews. II involved a contested principle
OF boat building.
The British believed in a substantial,
seaworthy, solid craft. The Americans

Awaking from his vision, the Emperor

Texas Deer Hunters.
From ne Kanads CITY Time

FROM WS hdHFdS CNy ItHPS.
There we're not less than 800 deer killed
in southwest Texas on the first day OF the
present hunting season. which opened
November 1. The new game law shOrtens
the deer hunting season to two months
and reduces the number that one person
may kill in q season to three bucks. Pre-
viOusly the number was six bucks and the
season was three months long. This tight
ening up" OF the sport caused many hunting
parties 20 60 after the game on the first
day Of the season. They wanted TO be sure
Of killing their quota Of deer before the be-
ginning OF the big slaughter that usually
takes place In December.
In thirty or forty counties Of south west
Texas where deer are found In nee
hundreds OF spOrtsmen are beating the
bushes and lying In walt nc the water holes
in efforts to ret shots at the willy bucks.
There has been a big increase In the number
OF deer In this particular section during the
last three or four years. and the same con-
ditiOn il said to be true Of other parts Of the
Rio 0rande border region.
