RIVAL SPORTSMEN.

A writer in Travel says that the
Island of sokotra is one of the least
known portions of the British Empire,
although thousands of Englishmen
sight it every year from the decks of
steamers running to Indian and Aus
traIian ports. When the southwest
monsoon blows, it's iron-bound coast
is cut off for months from the rest of
the world, because no vessel dares to
venture near.
In cunning near the coast, where
the various streams watering the
broad plain of Tamarida terminate in
three lagoons, the Englishman found
himself checkmated by another kind
of sportsman. The lagoons swarmed
with fish, and formed the resort of
large focks of duck and teal; but one
of the greatest difficulties in procur-
ing this game arose from the presence
of enormous crabs.
These hideous creatures seemed to
be amphibious, for they excavated
tunnels through the banks of the
lagoon, and then lay at the dry end
Of the opening to watch. They were
npleasant-lcoking animals, thus en-
gagged, some Of them measuring a foot
across, and all of a sickening green
ish-yellOw. One could imagine that
the victim forced to lose it's life in
their clutches might easily die OF
fright at their terrifying appearance

The Underground Ocean.

Recent Investigations by officers of
the Geological Survey have brought
to light facts about the enormous
quantity of underground water con-
tanned in the crust of the globe which
are calculated to astonish the lay
mind.
Below a depth of six miles it is be-
lieved that no water can exist in the
rocks, because the tremendous pres
sure probably closes all pores; but
above that level the quantity of I'M
derground water is estimated to be
equal to one-third of all the water
contained in the oceans. If poured
over the land surface of the globe,
the underground water would, it is
averred, be sufficient to cover it to
a uniform depth of from three thou
sand to three thousand five hundred
feet.-New York Tribune.

BEAR AND UMBRELLA.

Mrs. Latham, the wife of the land
lord of Oak Lodge, Indian River,
Florida, discovered that there was
not much danger in meeting wild
black bear, provided an open umbrel-
la was interposed. st. Nicholas re-
ports the meeting.
There is cleared trail leading
from the lodge to the beach, half
mile away. 1t runs through jungle
of cabbage palmetto, live-oak and
saw palmetto. Mrs. Latham was re-
turning from the beach alone one
day, armed only with an umbrella.
When a quarter OF mile from the
house, she heard the rustling of some
animal coming toward her through
the saw palmettos Thinking it must
be a raccoon, she quickly picked up a
chunk Of palmetto wood, and held 1t
ready to whack the animal over the
head the instant he emerged.
All at once, and with a mighty rus
tling, out stepped big black bear
within six feet of her! The surprise
was mutual and profound. Naturally
Mrs. Latham was scared, but she
stood ner ground and said nothing.
The bear rose on his hind legs to
get q better look at her, making two
or three feints in her direction with
his paws. Feeling that she must do
something Mrs. Latham pointed her
umbrella at the bear and quickly
opened and closed it two or three
times.
about, he plunged into the palmettos
and went crashing away, while the
lady ran homeward as fast as sht
could.

Hazel Nut OF the Northwest.

The crop Of hazel nuts in Clark
County for this year has been enor-
nous. Every bush is laden with nuts
and all the boys and girls are storing
large quantities for winter use. One
family has the banner pick of four
bushels of shelled nuts in one day.
That the cultivated hazel nut, or
filbert, is admirably adapted to this
climate has been demonstrated by a
number of growers, among them Jno.

tension, who has seven acres of trees
in excellent condition. There are 800
trees to the acre, planted ten feet.
apart. The culture is profitable to
the grower, as the nuts bring fourteen
and fifteen cents a pound.
The trees bear few nuts the first
year, the crop increasing yearly until
the ten-year-old trees are bearing
about ten pounds OF nuts. At a mar
ket price of fifteen cents, 800 trees
to an acre and ten pounds to the tree.

was at once seized and dragged afSe
the tunnel; and when the hunter had
a successful shot, he was by no means
allowed to reap the benefit of it..
Punctual as the report, Sir Scorpio
appeared and claimed the bird, the
whole, and never part.
When one was depending upon
ones gun for a dinner, it was mad
dening to see beautiful fat mallard
embezzled by a crab.
At one time, the sportsman dropped
a big sandpiper in the water, some
twenty yards from the opposite bank,
and a crab rose from the bottom and
dragged the bird down. Then the
sandpiper escaped and came bobbing
up again, but a shot was ready for
his pursuer's appearance.
The minute that ugly form arose to
regain it's quarry, the sportsman let
it have the other barrel. Bits of crab
and bits of bird f1uttered on the
breeze, and on securing the mangled
remains of the sandpiper, 1t was
found that the crab had eaten away
nearly all the head and neck; this in
less than five minutes.
