GETTING A GORILLA.

Capt. Fritz Duquesne, the Boer
ivory hunter, was commissioned by a
German naturalist society to capture
one of each species of African quad
rumana. He was entirely successful
in the work, except that he could OBJ
tain no gorilla. Finally a pigmy
pointed out a portion of the dank
jungle in which a gorilla had been
seen.
For four days." continues the
captain, I'VE camped in this hotbed
of disease. Beaters went out in all
directions searching for the gorilla.
At last some deep, wide scratches
were found in a cluster of vines. On
close examination the unmistakable
hair of the gorilla was found on a
broken twig After some hours we
found the tree where the gorilla lived
We could tell it by the greasy ap-
pearance of the bark, made SO by the
repeated rubbing of the gorilla's
body. We could tell by the fresh
marks, with sap still wet, that the
animal had recently ascended the
tree. The scratches were short and
deep, showing that it had lifted itself
up and not down, which would have
made a long, shallow scratch.
1--WE spread strong net around
the tree in a circle sloping upward
on the outer side. Around the top
of the net there were drawn ropes
from four directions held by half a
dozen natives hidden in the bush.
These were to bring the top of the
net together and thus bag our game.

STRANGE EXPERIENCE.

The fatal net of floating seaweed
which plays such prominent part in
'"The Cradle of the Rose" the latest
Harper novel by the author of 'The
Martyrdom of an Empress" while un-
precedented in fiction is by no means
so in fact A few months ago Lord
Edward Seymour, younger brother
of the Earl of Yarmouth, and third
in the line of succession to the Mar
quisate of Hertford, had narrow es-
cape from death in the meshes of
just such a net while swimming off
Bembridge in the Isle Of Wight. He
was floating on his back far out from
shore, when a great bed of matted
weed suddenly rose from the depths
and completely surrounded him. Re-
alizing that he would become hope
lessly entangled if he made any at
tempt to free himself, he remained
perfectly still, and presently the
CHASTITY snare sank away from him as
suddenly as it had risen. After such
an experience 1t Is no wonder that, as
the account has 1t "the swim back to
shore wanted some doing" In "The
Cradle of the Rose" the dragging
under sea of weed appears in the first
scene in the story, and in the last,
with a most curious dramatic effect.

thoroughly seasoned. The peculiar
advantage consists in the fact that it
has a large central pith, which in
sures lightness, and hard outer
shell, which makes for rigidity.
The arrow should be thirty-one
inches long, five-sixteenths Of an inch
in diameter at the head, a quarter of
an inch in the centre, and three
sixteenths at the tail; and the greater
care taken to make it perfectly
smooth and straight, the farther 1t
will fly.
The head has a rounded point
The only other thing required is
a piece of hard, strong string,
about one-sixteenth of an inch
In diameter and twenty-eight inches
long. In this a double knot is tied,
one-half inch from the end. Hav-
Ing made a pencil mark round the
arrow at a distance of sixteen inches
from it's head, the thrower bitches
the string over the knot and about
the arrow at the pencil mark, as
shown in Figure A.
It will be seen that so long as the
pull on the string continues to be
toward the head of the arrow, the
knot will hold, but as soon as the pull
comes from the opposite direction the
string slips off.
With the head of the arrow held
toward the body, the loose end of the
string Is wound four or five times
about the end of the forefnger of the
right hand, and the arrow itself is
held lightly, close to its head, be-
tween the thumb and the second and
third fingers.

NonDlussed Mr.. Gladstone.

Miss Dorthy Drew, who was pre-
sented at court few days ago, was
the favorite granddaughter of the
late Mr.. w. E. Gladstone, and among
the stories told of her childhood days
is the following: One morning she re-
fused to get up, and, all other means
failing, Mr.. Gladstone was called to
her. why won't you get up. my
child?' he asked. 'Why, grandpapa.
didn't you tell me to do what the
Bible says?" replied Dorothy. Yes.

thy sure of her ground. you listen,
then" she said, in reply to his excla-
nation of astonishment, and, taking
up her Bible she read verse 2 of
Psalm 127, laying great emphasis on
the words. "It is vain for you to rise
up early."-~Tit-Bits.

O11R CANARY BIRD DICK.

Perhaps you would like to hear
about Dick, the cute little canary
bird we have. He is very light yell
low, with a few black feathers.
Whenever some one comes into the
room he sings and sings until the
person says: How do you dog to
him. Then he stops. He is so tame
that we allow him to fly all around
the house. He likes the mahogany
table in the parlor best.
One day last week 1 was walking
through the hall with a pitcher OF
water. Dick saw me, flew up to the
pitcher, sat on the rim and then flew
in and took a bath, which surprised
me very much, because he will not
take his bath unless it Is in the frying
pan.
Dick loves to play with spool OF
thread, which he untwists until he
has enough in his mouth and then ne
will fly to his cage. If he sees any
one eating something, he flies on his
shoulder and with his head cooked
on one side sings until he gets some
thing to eat. The other day while
my friends and I were in the dining
room he flew from one shoulder to
the other or flew on to the table to
eat the crumbs.-Hildega Grisch,
in the New York Tribune.

In throwing, the arrow is held at
arms length in front of the body,
drawn back, and then cast forward
and upward by a powerful jerk of the
arm.
The movement of the arm is large
ly below the top of the shoulder, but
the arrow should be inclined upward
at an angle of about forty-fve de-
grees, as it leaves the hand (Figure
b. The string, of course, slips OH
as the arrow starts.
The distance to which an arrow
may be thrown by this simple meth
Cd is astonishing.
Among the Yorkshire miners an
ordinary thrower will cast an arrow
from 24O to $50 yards; and 372 yards
is the record which one man at
tanned.
The propelling power is applied
largely by the first finger, and the
greatest difficulty with beginners is
that they are apt to grip the arrow
too tightly with the second and third
fingers at the moment when it should
leave the hand.
Success in making long flights de-
pends, too, very much upon the bal
ance of the arrow-a matter which
those who attempt the sport will en-
Joy working out for themselves. The
Yorkshiremen are so particular about
this that before one Of their matches
1t is not unusual to see a contestant
pushing a common pin into the pith
Of his arrow at one end OG the other,
or withdrawing one.-Youth's Com
panion.

THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL.

THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL.
Che first day of school is the best day of
all
You feel so important and happy and tall!
You have some new dresses, and In your
new books,
New studies with lovely queer jumbles and
crooks.
And teacher looks fresh and little bit fat,
And wears the most fummery, summary
hat;
You wonder how some day twill feel to
be old,
And never be scolded," and never be
"told."
The blackboard is painted all shiny and
black
And somehow, it really is good to be back.
There's Amy and Harriet, Mary and Gwen;
And Maribel Mathers, who has the gold
pen.
And Maribels doing her hair new way,
And has new bracelet that's locked on to
stay.
You wish that mamma weren't so strict
about things
That you could wear brooches and brace
lets and rings.
We don't have to study the FIRST day, at
And teacher, quite often, goes out in.the
hall; -
We whisper, but teacher comes back With
smile
Well have to behave better after a while.
Oh, summer vacation is splendid, of course,
With the lake, and the farm, and the boat,
and the horse;
But truly / love the first day, in the fall,
When school seems real fun-'tis the best
day of all!

CHAPTER VI.

Beside the pleasant mill at
Trumpington," says Wordsworth, 1--WE

thorn shade" but it was with no ex-
pectation of merriment that Miss So
phia Gilbert, accompanied by her
faithful waiting maid, Jeanette.
took her way thither that May after
noon. The first time she had visited
the place was at a little picnic during
the long vacation, with Aunt Maria
and a few friends, and there by acci-
dent she had first met with Herbert
Perry. Six months ago she had
adored the man, of whom she was
the clandestine wife; and noW-now
she hardly dared to say to herself
adherence she looked forward to a
future which must be linked with his.
with what apprehension and dismay
she pictured the Immediate conse-
quence OF his obstinacy and rashness,
should he persist in his present be-
havior, Yet it was curious that she
felt more angry with herself for her
folly than with him for his cruelty;
and as every now and then she
stopped by the waters side and gazed
on her own image she murmured as
before, "You fool! you mad apd
wicked fool"
She had reached the end OF the
peninsula and was about to- turn
when the silver beat of a paddle
struck upon her ear; in that very
time and place it had once been nll
sic to her, but now she shfvered 'as
though it was a passing bell. .
He is coming" said Jeanette, in
a warning voice.
As if she did not know that: as if
she did not see, though. her face was
still averted, the little .boat gliding
swiftly up the. stream 7impelled by
those sinewy arms, and the shapely
head with it's crisp brown locks, and
tie form that had once been as Apoe
los to her eyes, but was now odious
as ApOHyon's.
The canoe shot noiseiessly to the
bank, and he stepped out to meet her
with a feeting smile.
We'll" he said, Il am come, and
with all the caution that an Indian
uses in one of Cooper's novels, but
I tell you fairly that l am tired of all
this shying and shirking, and mean
to put an end to It,.
She had held out her hand, but he
had taken no notice Of it; his face
was flushed, not with the exercise he
had taken, for such feats were feavh-
erweights with him, but, as she was
we'll aware, with anger.
IF we are going to talk" he said,
looking toward Jeanette, though

trying to focus a camera on the in
furiated animal.
''At last the mighty arms of the
gorilla broke a hole through the net
and he tore the rest from him as
though it were a rotten rag. Most
of the natives fed in dismay. The
professor dropped his camera and
tried to escape; in a moment the
gorilla grasped him in it's terrible
hands.
''[ seized my rife and fired in the
air to frighten the animal. In my
position l could not shoot at him
without hitting my friend. For
moment the gorilla stood still, hold
ing the now unconscious man as
though he were a baby, the brute's
lips drawn back from his glistening
teeth. l thrust another cartridge in
my rifle. AS l did so there was a
buzz in the air, and an arrow, shot
by native, pierced the gorilla's side.
A roar burst from his red throat and
he dropped his victim. Like flash,

from the leaves, and, half throwing,
half thrusting, drove an assegai into
the gorilla's heart. With a groan
the brute fell dead.

that his righa arm 1as broken and
that some of his ribs were crushed
into his lungs. We gave up the eff
