NEW AFRICAN ANTELOPE
is SHOT BY SPORTSMAN
Establishes Connection Between
Two Types

b LONDON, Oct. 22-British scientists
are much interested in a new african
antelope discovered and shot by Ivor
sf5uxton, one of the unadvertised scien-
tiHc sportsmen, who recently made q
hunting trip to the big game districts
OF East Africa. The beautiful creature
was shot on the Arussi plateau of Cal
laland in southern Abyssinia at a sup
posed height of 5000 feet above sea
level Richard Lyddeker, the distin-
guished naturalist, says the new ante
lope forms by far the most important
addition to the big game group which
has been made since the discovery
OF the okapi and the forest hog.
Buxton's antelope is important, SAYS
Lyddeker, for the reason that it bridges
the gap between the kudu and the
nyala- The kudu is one of the largest
and handsomest of all African ante
lopes, the males carrying long, spir-
ally twisted horns of great beauty,
while in both sexes the sleek. tawny
coat is marked by narrow vertical
white stripes and the throat has a
heavy fringe of long hair Still more
graceful is the lesser kudu of East
Africa, which is small, without the
throat fringe, and has two large white
gorgets, one on the throat, the other on
the chest
The nyala possesses heavy throat
fringe. Up to the present the nyala
and the situtunga have been the near
est allied to the kudu. 1t is much like
a nyala- Buxtons antelope Is of the
size of the typical or greater kudu,
while its horns are of the same general
type, although wider and shorter. The
coat of Buxtons specimen, though, is
quite different from the kudu, being Of
considerable length, coarse in struc-
ture and dark brown in color, without
stripes, but with a few white spots on
the hindquarters and f1anks, while the
throat and chest are white girdled In
deed. says Lyddeker, so closely does
the Buxton-Abyssinia spotted kudu
connect the typical kudus with the
nyaIas 1T may now be taken for granted
that all the antelopes Of the two groups
should be joined in single genus
1t is proposed to preserve the speci-
men of the new antelope in the natural
history branch of the British museum
in Cromwell road. A special hunting
may go to Abyssinia in
search of female of the new genus

ANCIENT ART WORKS
IN BRITISH MUSEUM
Libation Altar and Seated
Groups Found in Egypt

LONDON, Oct. 22.-Two interesting
specimens OF ancient Egyptian art re-
Gently acquired by the British museum
are now on exhibition in the gallery of
Egyptian sculpture. The first, liba-
ton altar of gray granite, which was
made for the fourth prophet of Amen,
Nesi-Ptoeh,' has upon 1t representa-
tions of the usual tunereal offerings
carved In relief accompanied by two
lines of we'll cut hieroglyphics one
reading from left to right, the other
from right to left
These inscriptions are prayers to the
god Osiris that he may grant offerings
and Sepulchral meals to the dead per-
son, or, rather, to his 'ka"-that is his
spiritual double in the next world.
Affairs of this class were usually placed
in inches or before figure OF the dead

In the belief that they possessed magi-
cal powers.
The second object is seated group in
white limestone. 26 inches in height
The group represents an official of rank
together with his wife and sister
seated on small chairs of state. Both
figures, which are evidently portraits
are shown wearing long robes reaching
nearly to the ankles, and the usual wig
which was worn by both men and
women on ceremonial occasions. The
faces of both the male and female
figures appear to have originally been
painted, but of this only very little
trace now remains. -
Commencing on the dress of the male
figure and continuing on that of the
female-a rather unusual practice-is
an inscription of a Itinerary character.
ending with the name of the scribe,

MILAN, Italy, Oct 22-Enrico Ca
ruso, whose many troubles have kept
him wailfng when he is not singing,
probably will have more difficulty. in
escaping his latest affliction-the black
eyed Nemesis who wants $4,000 for
wounded affection-than any others he
has managed to dodge during his long
career before the public.
|, Not that the vision of dark beauty
scorned is the only thing that trou-
bles Caruso's dreams and waking
hours; there is, for instance Nine
GiuIa Giuchetti, mother of Caruso's
three children, with whom he has not
made financial -or other peace.
With two women camping on his
trail, not to mention three children, no
wonder that he did not mind little
thing like an iron bar dropping on his
head and knocking him senseless at
the Munich opera house recently. The
accident was too trivial to trouble a
great singer with a heart full of woe;
he sang through the last act of La
Boheme" and the audience was none
the wiser
LEGAL TRAP FOR SINGER
Caruso has in general come off with
victory, If not honors, in his domestic
difficulties with Nine. Giuchetti, but
his newest siren vows that she'll lure
$4,000 from him or know the reason
why. Her father, with the aid of
lawyers here. is preparing a legal trap
in which he hopes to hold the singer

Meanwhile, the girl in the case, who

aged to keep from the public, was con-
suited. The engagement, it is said,
was soon thereafter announced to
some trusted friends at a banquet :,
In Berlin Caruso was often seen
with the girl, but this little evidence
of genius caused no more than a pass
ing bit of gossip.
Then, say the friends. who are not
wholly to be trusted, Caruso wrote
letter that set the girls black eyes
swapping with anger. The letter was
fuli of little affectionate outbursts, but,
boiled down. IL said that there would
be no marriage. The several thousand
francs inclosed in the letter did not
seem sufficient for tfle rude awakening
from loves young dream, hence the
demands for satisfaction, and Caruso's
days and nights of unrest.
