Its inhabitants are the members oil
20 monasteries, which have existed
there since the days when Christian
emperors held rule at Constantinople
and gave laws to all Europe. For 400

Athos.
A vast quantity OF art treasures and
precious manuscripts has been stored
in the monasteries, but for the most
part their contents and even their
character remained entirely unknown.

The Lydia Il. Pinkham Medicine

invite any woman interested to call

violated, and never In their history

RestIess Animals.

When you see the animals in the
park menageries pacing back and forth
rest!essIy in their cages do not take it
for granted that the creatures are I'M
happy or even Discontinued. 1t may be
that the lion or the tiger or the polar
bear that moves about with apparently
ceaseleSs activity is only taking his
daily exercise, without which he would
pine and die soon When the wild
creatures are in their native jungles
they are kept pretty busy hunting food
Thus each day they walk many miles
perhaps In their narrow cages in the
parks they are plentifully supplied
with food, but their brawny bodies still
demand a great amount of exercise.
Mile after mile is paced off daily by
the uneasy creatures. Usually they
move with long swinging stride, but
when mealtime comes around then the
step quickens until when the keeper
appears with his baskets of meat the
tigers and lions and other animals leap
against their bars and growl and whine
and lash their tails. In fact, they act
like great hungry boys do after a long
days tramp if they find that supper is
late

FLOCkS OF SHEEP ARE
DYING ON THE RANGE.
Thousands Will SuCCumb to
Gold There.


Cooper, Wyo., Feb. 26.-Unless a
warm wtve comes within the next
ten days and melts the two feet OF
snow covering the range, stockmen
predict the complete determination of
their herds of sheep. Already the
losses have been the heaviest in years.
Between here and Lander, $50 miles
west, the country is given over largely
TO the sheep men, and their focks
have suffered severely for want of hay
and owing to the heavy SHOWS, it has
been impossible to get to the stations
for supplies.
The result has been that thousands
of sheep have starved to death.
Usually at this season of the year
sheep on the range are in good condi-
ton and readily sell at S. per head.
Right now they are practically with
out value and can be had for any price.
John Wilson, near Salt Wells, had a
flock of 1000 and sold them at so cents
per head The purchaser loaded them
on cars and shipped them into Nebras-
ka, but before he had them in the
feed lot he had lost all but 125. H. B.
Benson, near Powder River, had a
flock of 5000, but was without feed.
He sold to a Spectator, receiving 81
per head
The purchaser got them out of the
country as soon as possible, but only
300 arrived at destination, the others
dying en- route or before they arrived
at the feeding grounds.

OFFER OF $4,000 is
MADE BY CARNt gle.
10 Student Who InyentS
AirShip.

Pittsburgh, Feb. 26.-In oder to de-
velop thy latent talent in the Carne-
gle School of Technology of this city
and produce if possible a heavier
than air machine that will be of COM
mercial value, Andrew Carnegie has
made an offer of $4,000 for the first
Of the pupils in his school that will
produce a heavier than air machine
that will fly.
1t has been known for sometime
that Mr.. Carnegie was taking a great
interest in aerial naviation.
When here recently he said to one
Of the professors in the Carnegie School
that he hoped at some date not far
distant in the future to see a pupil of
the school startle the world by invent
ing a machine that would eclipse
anything that has yet been turned
out
All of the details of the offer an
nounced today will not be made pub
llc until the next visit of Mr.. Carne-
negie when on his way to New York
from SOUTHERN California, where he
is at present.
The first meeting of the Carnegie
Aerial School Club was held today. 1t
was the intention to try half dozen
OF the models that have already been
completed. Some of these machines
are six feet long while others are less
than two feet.
Owing to high wind that blew
across Schenley Park and ScEenley
farms, where the first tests were to
be made, only two of the machines
were sent up. Both made flights OF
200 yards.
