HUNTING THE WALRUS.
Tho Eskimo Takes Advantage of tho
Animals Curiosity.


In his frail skinboat 1t is q difficult
and dangerous task for the Eskimo to
go out to sea forty to sixty miles and
intercept the walrus as he passes on
his migration into the Arctic.
One carcass will fill his boat, for 1t
weighs from 1000 to 5000 pounds.
He hunts the walrus when they are
lying asleep on the ice foes In herds
from ten to several hundred. Death
must be instantaneous, else with few
rolls or the peculiar numbering, hump
ing movement (seen Of the seal when
ashore), he makes the few feet to the
water and then Is lost, as lie has not
sufficient blubber and air TO float. He
has much natural curiosity, and If not
scared by shots will come up close TO
your boat or the ice foe on which you
are sitting. squirting, snorting and roll
ing his eyes; with his cleaning tusks
and bristled snOut he has an. uncanny,
goblin, monster-like appearance. A
herd of fifty or sixty of them will come
up en- masse, raise high out of the
water TO stare at you, then snort,
squirt and disappear again, only to
come up ON the same spot and repeat
the maneuver indefinitely. Taking
advantage of this the Eskimos hide be
hind Ice hummocks and throw a har-
poon into one, then snub the tough
rawhide line around an ice cake. He
must perforce come up to blow, and he
is then killed with the rife. The thick
skin and the mass Of blubber and meat
beneath render him almost invulner-
able.--Pacific Monthly.

kissino In Zealand.

Amorg old time laws against kissing
those OF Iceland appear to have been
the most severe. Banlshment was the
penalty laid down for kissing another
mans wife, either with or without her
consent. The same punishment was
enforced for kissing an unmarried wo-
man against her will; II It could be
proved that she had consented to be
kissed the offender was still liable to
a fine Of great quantity of cloth for
each offense.

This bunting game has made the
locals look rather foolish on more
than one occasion during the present
series. Give IL to the Molders for
playing some pretty keen inside base
ball In the present series and also
for outplaying the Diggers at prac-
tically every stage. Marion has an
even break in the series but has
been mighty fortunate to secure 1t.

WRIGHTS WRONG,
SAYS BISHOP
President Of the Aero Club
Says Suit Is a Real
q Mean Trick.
HE SCORES WRIGHTS

Los Angeles, Cal, Jan. 12.-"The
Wright brothers are in the wrong.
The suits brought against Paulhan and
Curtiss will seriously retard the pro-
gress of aeronautics.''
This is the statement of Cortlandt
Field Bishop, president of the Aero
Club of America, regarding the in
junction suits now pending in the
courts.
at seems that the Wrights do not
want any person to fly unless they
receive some royalty. That really ap-
pears to be the principal reason for
their action in declaring that others
are infringing upon their patents.
That nearly approaches the dog in
the manger attitude.
"Now as a matter of fact there is
considerable technical difference be-
tween the manner of control of aero
planes as performed by the Wrights
and that utilized by Curtiss. While
l do not wish to criticize the judge
who granted the injunction l do think
it a pity that the matter of deciding
such delicate point in the progress
of new science should be left to a
man who, though doubtless finely
familiar with law, cannot know much
of aeroplanes.
"In the near future aviators will
continue to occupy the armament with
cut paying tribute to the Wrights,
who take new view of the old near
apothagm that the air at least is free.

LIGHT, FROTHY, NAUGHTY
WAS THE SOUL KISS"

Rather light, rather frothy, rather
naughty" in spots, but entertaining
just the same is "The Soul Kiss which
was played at the Grand to a packed
house last night.
There was a pretty and attractive
chorus, plenty of dancing, an abun-
dance of handsome new gowns worn
for the first time at the performance
last night, and an abundance of mu-
sical numbers-not singing, for there
were only a few of the singers who
were able to sing at all because of
colds and hoarseness.
The play was written without plot,
or the senblance of one. There are
some good monologues by J. Lucifer
Mefisto that are cynical but quite true
to life. There are some comedy dia-
logues by members of the cast, but the
play is utterly devoid of any connect
ing plot.
"The Soul Kiss" is expected to draw
by the appealing sound of it's title and
it's vaudeville and burlesque qualities
which are interviewer with the musical
numbers and chorus work.
hO ODJSSI VI IhC pldyJ IL IL ohSb
must be to teach the wickedness that
pervades cafes and other gathering
places of high society,"" for every ac-
tion and song used in the play deals
with life of the fast set"-meaning
young men and women who have moth
ing to do but enjoy themselves with
"naughtiness" and even vice. But con-
trary to the plays of similar nature
it shows only the pleasures Of the life
and none of the sorrows.
Some clever acting enters the play,
principally that of Mephisto, whose sa.
tanic part was taken by Robert Lett.
His work was par excellence and show
ed that with better vehicle he would
be near-star at least.
The dancing of Mile. Prayer was
good and pleased the audience. She
was worked trifle too hard perhaps
but always got hand for her efforts.
Suzette, a model, was good in her
part and was one of the only ones
whose voice was not affected by throat
trouble. She was welcome on the
stage for her singing and her general
attractiveness.
Some decided novelties were intro,
duced in the chorus work that took
we'll with the audience.
The play was well staged, and the
scenic effects were all that could be
asked.
