A Wild Beasts Leap.

out Jump, on the flat, panther, tiger
or lion. Not that there have ever been
actual competitions between the boys in
the schools of the country and these wild
beasts, whose proweSs has made them
dreaded, but the records OF the Scholas-
tic athlete meets and the records OF the
biggest and strongest animals in captivity
have been compared.
When Herr Karl Hagenback, the ia
nous animal-trainer, was building his
geological park at Stellingen, in Germany.
he decided to employ novel method to
keep the carnivora within safe bounds
and yet give them almost entire liberty.
He therefore built for them Whathe called
glens, where they would have plenty OF
shelter, but also where they would be
free to roam about at their own will. SO
he surrounded his 'carnivora gorge with
trench or chasm, very deep, and too
wide for any oftheSe beasts to leap across.
He also so screened the trench with
bushes and plants that the visitors to the
park would not see the chasm at all.
To ascertain how far these animals were
able TO leap, he devised the plan offiXing
a stuffed pigeon TO the protecting branch
of a tree. Then in turn he released lions,
tigers and panthers into the enclosure
where stood the tree. The instant the
animals saw the pigeon they eXerted
themselves TO the utmost TO reach 1t.
Thus he found that the tigers and lions
could barely jump six feet and six inches,
while the panther could just reach the
branch at a height of ten feet.
Now Schoolboys cannot equal these
records. The best jump made in Schol-
astic competitions is six feet and two
inches, but there are great many boys
in the high schools who can clear the bar
at five feet six or seven or eight inches
with ease. In broad jumping however,
these school lads can beat the animals.
Herr Hagenback tested the broad jump
ing powers of the beasts in aSimilar man
ner, but he used animals that had had
some training, and which were more
adept at jumping than other beasts Of the
species. He found that pantherS could
barely cover ten feet in standing jump,
and when they had a running start they
could jump at most thirteen or fourteen
feet. Tigers also jumped ten feet from a
standing start, and on the running jump
were able to make several feet more.
But none OF these animals were able to
come within many feet of the Schoolboy
record, made four years ago by an Ohio
boy, OF twenty three feet, two inches,
nor could they get near the mark OF the
ordinary school athlete, for there are
many high-School lads who can make
from seventeen to twenty feet.
In his great animal park, Hagenback
considered it therefore to be entirely safe
to surround the quarters of his carniver
Gus beasts with a trench twenty EIGHT
feet wide. While the animals might take
long run before they leaped, any at
tempt to jump the trench would cause
them to fall into the depths Of the chaSm.

New Cut in Power Cost.

AT the mouth of great coal-mine at
Lafayette, Colorado, an enormous power
plant has been built the electric current
from which runs interurban cars, lights
streets and houses, runs factories, and
does most OF the work in score OF towns
and cities within $50 miles. The building
OF this plant indicates new step in the
saving of every cost in the commercial
world, in this instance eliminating the
heavy transportation charges on coal
from this mine to the various plants where
the power is used. The electric current
travels over its wires with little loss, and
practically delivers the energy direct from
the coal at the mouth of the mine to the
machine that it operates. In the Lafay-
ette plant mechanical conveyorS bring the
coal from the mine TO the furnaces; me-
chanical stokers feed it TO the fires ; steam
from the boilers turns the engine-wheels
that set the dynamos whining, and from
them the current leaps on upon the line
to do its work 100 miles away. No hu-
man hand interferes, except to guide and
control, and the economy is evident.

Sweet Charity.

The brook that hurries down the hill,
And ripples through the meadows green,
Too small in volume for the mill,
May some good work accomplish still
That will not always stay unseen.
Its gathered waters added weight
May serve purpose good and true,
Through many flrow, long and straight
II flows to find a pleasant fate
In giving fields richer hue.
So lives that fortune has decreed
4 narrow compass here must know,
May through some small but thoughtful deed
A soul from sinful courses lead
And Ter the past mantle throw.
Some good may still accomplished be.
Though feeble hands may ply the task,
With heart and hands from sin set free,
The strength OF Christ may come TO thee,
II thou for help will humbly ask.
