The typewritists are now at work in the
monotype section of the office. They are
classed as emergency employees"
When the atteQtion Of Mr.. Dow, sec
rotary to the public printer, was called
to the matter this afternoon he con.
firmed the statement that six non-print-
er typewriter operators were at work
there. Mr.. Dow explained, however that
the civil service list of printer eIigibles
of m4chine operators was exhausted by
the last call made. The civil service of
hcials thereupon gave the printing office
heads authority to employ help where
ever 1t could be found, with the result
that the half dozen typewritists were
employed.
They had all taken the examination as
monotype machine operators. it appears
although they had not learned the trade
of printing.
Mr.. Dow also stated that there will
be an examination for printers January
20 and q, only those who have learned the
trade being eligible. He said the six
typewritists had been employed at the
government printing Office before because
OF the shortage of operators. They are
only emergency men, and cannot work
longer than ninety days. They took the
last examination of the civil service but
cannot take the next one, he added.

days when the forestry association and
the forest service were both young and

QUAlLs FROM EGYPT.
Birds Are Trapped, Cared for, and
Transported by Thousands.
From the London Express.

From the London Express.
A record consignment of 10000 live
Egyptian quails, requiring special con-
seyance, from Alexandria to London by
way of the Manchester Ship Canal, left
Alexandria on March 20, and reached
Manchester last Saturday, when they were
transferred to a special express for Lon
don. Twenty drays were required to con-
vey them from Kings Cross to their des-
tination.
1t is most extraordinary that although
on many occasions search has been made,
the breeding ground. of the quails is abb
solutely unknown. y<They are trapped by
Arabs, who deliver them in half dozens in
boxes and baskets to the Egyptian Quail
Syndicate's collecting depots, situated At
all stations on the Egyptian State rail
ways between Alexandria and Assiout and
Khartum, and sent to the warehouse In
Alexandria to await shipment This ware
house is used exclusively for the purpose
of keeping the quail until a sufficient
number has been received, and is as large
as the Agricultural ball.
The quails are placed in crates feet
long with six tiers and capable OF holding
600 birds for shipment AS the syndicate
only receives payment for birds which are
alive when delivered, very great care and
attention has to be paid to them during
transit.
Six Arabs are told off whose special duty

every day, and during the present jour-
ney 100 bags, each weighing two hundred
weight of millet seed were consumed. Or

crushing of dry leaf, the slow, stealthy

first to move ahead of the heaters. Then

the eye can and does detect the move of

The question of how a white or other
wise abnormally marked tiger can take
its prey is simplified by the fact that as a
general rule the tiger kills at night or at
dawn or dusk, and that 1t is only tho cat

of the village cattle by day.
Again that wonderful voice, the most
mournful sound In captivity. (which lit

him in his hunting. Often as l have heard

seemed to fill the Jungle with a terrifying
thrill, and for a moment made the heart

the reverberating nature of the sound to

Lee arrived In town yesterday from

was compelled to rest a couple of days,
owing to the fact that he turned an ankle
