WINGED DEATH.
Poison Laden Arrows of the Nativss 81
East Africa.

Poison Laden Arrows of the Nativss u
East Africa.
The poisoned arrows Of some OF
the natives of East Africa are ter
ribly effective weapons. They are
quite beautifully made, smooth IN
the shaft, feathered carefully with
vulture wing feathers, a twist be-
ing given sometimes to the feathers
(something l have never seen in
any arrow feathering before), the
result being to give the arrow
spinning fight, like that Of rifle
bullet. The arrow heads are made
from iron wire. The shaft is OF
fine split bamboo cane. Into this
shaft fits exactly an ironwood head
some six inches long, and on this
again the barbed point is fastened.
The steel head of the arrow and the
ironwood top piece for two inches
or more are smeared with the much
dreaded poison. :
The kongoni, stung by the blow,
rushes off. and the feather shaft
drops, leaving the ironwood head
and barb of the weapon in the
wound. If the poison is fresh and
a shoulder or neck shot has been
made the N'dorobo say positively
that no beast will run a hundred
yards. l am inclined, however, to
think that they exaggerate some
what the action of this poison. That
it is very deadly there is no doubt.
Newman, who lived among the Ke-
MIA N'dorobo, satisfied himself OF
that. In a mans case its deadly
action was almost instantaneous.
Quite lately there happened small
fight between ten Nasal (young
bloods) and some Kamasea, who
used the same poison on their ar
rows. The Nasal were cattle steal
ing and had the temerity to ATTACK
a small village.
The Kamasea saw them coming
and, lying in the grass, let then
come. Eight out of the ten raiders
fell almost at once. They had onl.
time to cut up their shields ant
, break their spears (no enemy a
least should ever WELD these) ant
die beside the broken weapons
Gallant fellows anyway The bro
ken war gear was taken by the Ks
masea to the nearest civil Officer
The bows are very strong and WEI
strung, and, poor as they are, tn
e natives will seldom part with thei
!. really good bows and arrows. Th
o old and inferior weapons are nc
Z hard to buy. Each poisoned AFRO
e is very neatly wrapped with ski
tape and kept SO covered till neet

President Taft Receives Con-

THE NATIONAL DEFENSES
West Pointers Tell How Country
Could be Invaded.

Washington, D. c., June H.
President Taft is receiving con-
gratulations from all sources on his
accomplishment in settling for the
time at least a menacing railroad
problem. Within few hours at
ter his return from the West he
brought about an agreement and
thus avoided one of the most
dangerous situations the country
has had to meet for years. 1t is
hoped that congress may now be
able to proceed with such legisla.
ton as will secure permanently a
railroad peace promising SO much
for the prosperity of the country.
No session OF Congress passes
without agitating the alarm con-
cerning the defenseless situation
of the United States The West
Point gentlemen, young and old,
are always fond of pointing out
how easily foreign army or navy
/ might overwhelm this country.
They claim that our coast defenses
are weak or rotten and that we
would have no defense from in
vasion after our navy shall have
been overcome by the navies OF
England and Germany, separately
or combined. They say that in
such an event the enemy could
land forces on our coast at local.

SENATOR BOR AH'S COURTESY
Saved Public Lands Appropriation
for Idaho.

ava ANsSAAVs
The senate June 10 adopted an
amendment to the sundry civil bill
offered by Senator Hepburn. appro-
priatlng 100000 for public land
surveys in Idaho. When The amend
ment was proposed, Senator Iieyburn
supported 1t In speech. during
which he took occasion to causticallv
criticise Senator Hale, in charge Of
the bill. Hale promptly raised a
point of order against the amendment,
it being new legislation, aud the
senate sustained him, thereby de-
feating it. In retaliation, Senator
Hepburn raised points Of order against
various other western amendments
which the committee had reported.
Later Senator Borah was recognized
and made a personal appeal to Sena
tor Hale to withdraw his objection to
the Hepburn amendment, explaining
that the money is urgently needed to
open public lands Of Idaho to settle-
ment and entry. At the conclusion
of Borah's remarks, Senator Hale
stated that Ia view of the courteous
appeal of the junior senator from
Idaho. he would Withdraw the point
OF order, and the amendment was
adopted. Senator Heybu,n then
Withdrew his points Of order against
other amendments, but took occasion
to lecture Senator Hale for drawing
such apparent distinction between
the two senators from idaho.

Village Board Adopts New
Regulations.
TWO DISTRICTS; HOUR EACH

have again made an order restrict
ing and limiting the sprinkling
privilege. AT the meeting Mon
day night an order was made that
all persons who pay their regular
water rent shall be allowed to
sprinkle one land half lots with
out extra charge, and all those
sprinkling more than that area to
be required to pay 81. so per lot
for the season in advance. The
order also fixes 4 specified time
for sprinkling, people living north
Of the Northern Pacific Railroad
tracks being allowed one hour in
the morning, between 7 and 8
O'Clock, and people living south Of
the track being allowed one hour
in the evening, between S and 6
o'clock. The order becomes effec
tive at once, and it is understood
its enforcement will be subject to
the usual method of shutting off
and turning on Of the stops where
violations of the order are detected.
The board discussed the matter
for some time before making the
order. Extra charge for sprinkling
as made in other towns, was sug-
gested, but this method was not
adopted, Rathdrum having never
made any charge for sprinkling in
the past, water for that purpose
having always been allowed free oi
cost. The method of requiring
that the hose be held in the hand
was also discussed at some length
and it was agreed that in thai
manner not so much waste o.
water would occur, as it woulc
itend to efectually check the pres
ent wasteful habits of some peopl.
letting the hose run day and night
Limiting the sprinkling to hal
, hour mornings and evenings wa
also talked over. The manner %
dividing the town into two district
e and allowing each district on
e hour day, at separate periods
was finally decided upon as bein
! probably the most satisfactor
e method for all concerned. Las
year everyone was permitted t
d sprinkle at the same time, with tn
result that often the mains wer
completely drained and hydran'
i. in houses on high ground left dry
y much dissatisfaction being causet
e 1t is thought the new metho
q adopted will not only prevent
