Tho African Buffalo.

A wounded buffalo Is vastly more
dangerous when he runs away than
when he charges, for in nine cases out
of ten after dash that may be for a
few hundred yards or a mile he will
revengefully circle back to an inter-
ception of his own trail. stand hidden
In grass or thicket until his pursuer
comes plodding along the trail and
then charge upon him. Despite the
fierce temper Of lone bull, his savage
cunning and his great, charging bulk,
I believe him much less dangerous
than the lion, for he has far less speed,
lacks the lions poisoned claws and is
much bigger target. This opinion is
substantiated by the indisputable fact
that at least ten men are killed or
mauled by lion to one killed by buf-
falo.-Edgar Beecher Bronson in Cen.

filing case, or, perchance, feather
duster- is invested with some of the
charms of the world of adult mankind.
But from the fourth year in college
to the age of a senior-how con-
temptible those same sums and objects
appear! One has been accustomed to
disbursing that much in merely Incl
dental expenses. One has been accus-
toned, in the frat, to the difference
due ones years and position; and this
third assistant secretary seems not to
be aware that there is any material
difference between one and a side of
pork. AS senior one was vastly ex-
perienced. AS an applicant for a job
one is merely kid. The adjustment
is painful.
No doubt the college graduate, as
compared with the high-school gradu-
ate, will ultimately find better job;
but he will pretty certainly get more
sore places stepped on while he is
doing it.

intelligent and promising young man,
the son Of the late General for
whom you can perhaps find fairly
prospective position in your depart
ment''
But, your majesty said the min
lister, chat young man is already in
my department, and should say that
he is likely to make q career for him
SELF
Tell me, please" quietly asked the
car, how much did this youths
mother pay you for the appointment ~
The minister was too willy and tact
full outwardly to manifest his surprise
and chagrin, and he knew, too, that
his safety demanded perfectly can
did reply to his sovereign.
Would your majesty be Interested"
he said, "to hear what myself paid
for the influence which procured my
portfolio from your gracious hands?
The total sum was f22,5OO, and, rela-
lively speaking, I do not think, with
all humility, that this lady has paid
at all dearly for the prospects of her
son"
The minister repaid to the car the
$1,000 and was not unkindly dismissed
from the audience, and he also re-
tanned his portfolio.-Od Cor. Lon

Military Establishments and Civilization
From the Duluth Herald.

when 60 per cent of the total govern
ment expense is for the army and
navy.
Other countries spend even larger
proportions of their income in this
way. The chief cost of war is not in
Cured in war time, but between wars.
Most OF the money is spent in getting
ready for war, not in waging war.
The cost of military establishments
the world over constitutes a tremen-
dous burden upon the people, and as
in most coutries taxes burden most
heavily those who can least afford to
pay taxes, the effect upon the poor is
tremendously oppressive.
And what for? There oughtn't to
be the slightest excuse for war between
nations, and If the world were as
civilized as it processes to be there
wouldn't be any excuse. It is quite
as sensible fer Smith and Jones to
resort to blackening each others eyes
over party fence dispute as it IS for
two nations to go to war over dis
puted boundary.
Most of the worlds great nations
are fully equipped for war at a
moments notice: at least they believe
they are, and certainly they have paid
for being prepared. This state of
preparedness makes it very easy to 60
to war if occasion offers. If nobody
was prepared there wouldn't be so
much danger of war. A man who
carries a revolver or a pair of brass
knuckles is much more likely to get
into trouble than a man who has
neither.
Some time it will come about that
the world will be as civilized as the
average community thinks it is now;
and in chat day there will be no
burdensome taxes for military es-
Establishments, because disputes will be
referred to International courts to be
sensibly argued and sensibly decided.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1909-06-16

Suppose you were to run across a
man who was spending sixty per cent
OF his income every year in taking
measures either to protect himself and
his property from attack or to attack
the persons and property of others.
If that mans income was 200 a
year, that would mean that S720 a
year, or $50 month out of his 800
salary, was being spent in buying
guns, revolvers and ammunition,
setting spring-guns, or policing his
grounds.
What would you think of that man
You would think he was either
singularly pugnacious or plain crazy,
wouldn't you?
And if he was sane, and if his pre-
cautions were necessary, what would
you think of the neighborhood in
which he lived? You'd think it a
barbarous community, wouldn't you?
You would fancy that civilization had
left that particular corner of the world
untouched.
Of course there is no such indi-
vidual, because society is highly
organized, and people don't fight out
their differences as they used to.
There are policemen to protect society
from burglars and thieves, and
personal differences over business
and other matters usually go to the
courts, which are maintained for that
purpose.
But there are countries that do that
very thing, and one of them is the
United States, whose people believe it
to be the most civilized nation on
earth. Congressman Bartholdt of
Missouri said at the recent Lake
Mohonk Peace Conference that this
country is spending go per cent of it's
income on its military establishment.
Militarism hasn't taken hold of the
people of this country as it has of the
people of European countries, but it
seems to have a pretty tight hold, too,

That old question, whether college
education helps one to get a job, will
represented to several thousand young
men this month, and by the end of
next month, no doubt, a good many
of them will think they know the an
swer for sure.
Last year about thirty five thous and
boys graduated from public high
schools, and rather over half Of them
were candidates for some institution
of higher, or further, education. Pre-
sumably, the rest went to work. Being
boys, it shouldn't have been very diff
cult for them to find places. Many in
situations want boys to begin at the
bottom and work up. Four years hence
the case of the other sixteen thousand
and odd, who went to college and then
want jobs, will be different.
Viewed from the fourth year in high
school, five and a half or six dollars

Tho Temple of Zeus,

All that remains Of the great temple
Of Zeus, which was 700 years in build
ing, is to be found about $50 yards
from the foot of the Acropolis at Ath-
ems. The ruins consist Of sixteen col
umns of the Corinthian order, six and
one-half feet in diameter and sixty
feet high. It was the second largest
temple erected by the Greeks, one SUI
perior to 1t in size being the temple
Of Diana at Ephesus. According to a
legend, it's foundation was built by
Dukalion, the Greek Noah, who from
this point witnessed the waters of the
food sqbside. An opening in the
ground is said to be the orifce through
which the flood disappeared.

A MUTUAL SURPRISE.
The Meeting Between an Ambitious
Hunter and His First Grizzly.


In sketches Of Life In the Golden
State" Colonel Albert S. Evans tells
an amusing anecdote Of an ambitious
hunter who met his first grizzly bear
lin procession. The incident occurred
in the woods near the site Of the pres
ent town of Monterey.
The hunter sat down to rest in the
shade of tree and unwittingly went
to sleep. When he woke it was near
sunset, and he sat up, rubbing his
eyes and contemplating return to his
hotel, several miles distant
Just then rustling and cracking
noise from clump Of chaparral about
100 yards away attracted his atten-
ton. Out walked a grizzly bear, a
monarch of his kind He yawned,
licked his jaws and then advanced to-
ward the tree where our hunter sat,
but evidently was unconscious of his
presence.
His grizzly majesty had proceeded
about twenty PAGES when a female
bear followed him, and an instant later
third grizzly followed her at slow,
stumbling pace.
The hunter sat spellbound with ter
ror as the procession came toward him
until the forward grizzly was within
thirty yards. Then, scarcely realizing
what he did, he sprang to his feet
and uttered a frenzied yell-yell upon
yell!
The effect was magical The fore
most bear sprang into the air, turned
sharply about, knocked the female
down, rolled over her, gathered him
self up and bolted ''like forty cart loads
Of rock going down a chute" straight
for the chaparral again, the other two
bears close at his heels and never
turning to see what had frightened
them.
The hunter, seeing the enemy re-
treating, sprang to his feet and fed
at top speed for the hotel, leaving hat
and gun behind The truth Of his Wild
and startling tale was proved the next
day by the numerous bear tracks Of
different sizes found in the marshy
ground near by. But the three bears
had gone of beyond pursuit.

BRIBERY IN RUSSIA.
An Incident of the Reign Of the GEAR

An Incident of the Reign Of the "czar-
Liberator."
An old and long retired Russian gen.
eral, man of the ''old school," relat-
ed the following story in illustration
Of the official bribery that prevails in
Russia, the incident being one within
his own personal knowledge:
During the reign Of Alexander H.,
the 'czar-liberator," the widow Of
distinguished general endeavored to
obtain an appointment in certain
ministry for her only son, young
man Of superior education and intelli-
gence. The minister promised the
widow to reserve the first occurring
vacancy in his department. She wait
ed in vain for the fulfllment OF the
promise and twice repeated her appeal
by letter. She learned, too, that in the
meantime several vacancies had been
filled by other candidates.
The widow then waited upon the en-
peror and told mis- majesty of the min
listers broken promises and her own
keen disappointment, and after few
moments consideration the car asked
her If she had inclosed gift of money
to the minister with her written APP
plication.
why, certainly not, your majesty.
should not dare put such an affront
upon his excellency."
do not trouble yourself about the
afront, madame" replied the car.
.'but renew your proshenie to the min
lister and inclose FL 900 to him.
But have no such sum Of money,
your majesty" said the widow dole
fully.
"Oh, as to that, will lend you the
money, and the minister will no doubt
repay me, and you will inform me,
please. Of the result Of your renewed
application with the Enclosure"
The widow sent her son to the min
lister with the FL 900 lent by the car
inclosed with a politely written note,
the result being that the young man
received the desired appointment the
same day.
About q week later the minister had
just concluded his customary official
report to the car when his majesty
observed, BY the way, there is a very
