savagely that the ink splashed over

the other man, you will find a full

Rogers took the paper and ran his
eye down the columns with rapidity

a surprised way.

to say was not easily said.

II was a great deal for the hard

he turned back to the paper with

Beaurepaire Breaking Records.

Along with annexing most of the
big English titles at swimming, Beau
repaire. the Australian, has started to
maxi history in the record line. He is
not attacking any obscure marks by
mediocre performers. but is going for
the records of the cracks. A few
weeks ago he wiped off three previous
marks at the Exeter baths. London. in
one night. He first attacked the 200
meters. which he swan in 2 minutes
80 seconds. The 300 yards was the
next to receive the attention of the
Australian. and he swan it in 3 min
utes 30 seconds. The best English rec
ord for this distance was 3 minutes
81 % seconds. by II. S. Battersby last
year.
1t was in the 300 meters that Beau
repaire gave his greatest display of
speed. and he knocked a big slice off
all worlds records. His time was 3
minutes 30 1-5 seconds. and nothing
like this has ever been achieved. even
with Il tide or indoors.

FOR THE CHILDREN
Elephant Sleep.

A man who had the privilege of pass
ing the night among the cages of a
menagerie gives an interesting descrip-
ton of what en- elephant looks like
when asleep. 1t is. he says, the stran-
gest sight be eve saw. Its great legs
are bent into right angles at the knees.
it's trunk is curled into its mouth. and
the whole body looks like a shapeless
mound of mud or a half inflated bal
loon.
There is absolutely nothing about it
to suggest life. There is not the slight
est movement in any part of the big
hulk. nor is any part distinguishable in
the faint light. The two ends Of the
body are exactly alike. The ears lie
perfectly fiat. and the eyes are conceal
ed in wrinkles Of the flesh.
Only by the sense of hearing can one
tell that the mass has life. for some
where out Of it comes a kissing sound
like steam from an exhaust pipe. This
sound continues for several seconds
and then stops. to be repeated after an
interval. but the interval is so long
that the repetition of the sound does
not seem like breathing. Chicago

The Mariners COMPASS.

The compass was invented by the
Chinese nearly 1000 years ago.. but it
was not introduced into Europe until
about the middle of the twelfth cen
fury. At that time Marco Polo, who
had spent many years in Asia, return
ed to Italy. bringing the little guide
with him. At first the compass was
used only on land. but later its great
est use was to the mariners. The es-
sential part Of the compass is a
magnetized needle balanced freely on
a fine point fastened to the center Of
a circular card marked N. S. E. w. to
show the cardinal points. The mari
ner's compass is inclosed in a brass
box which is suspended by gimbals, so
that the box may remain horizontal.
The needle of a compass always points
north, although the compass may be in
any horizontal position. The reason
for this is that the earth is a great
magnet. having its poles north and
south. and attracts all smaller mag
nets. The earth's north magnetic pole
is many miles from the real north
pole.

1he Lead Pencil.

Few people are aware of the diff
culties that were surmounted in the
manufacture of the common lead pen
Gil. In the first place. the graphite of
which it is made is rarely found suffi-
GENTLY homogeneous to allow pencil
lead to be cut from it, so it is always
ground to powder and then pressed
into blocks. The great difficulty was
to press the blocks until the graphite
was hard enough to use. and for many
years every effort in this direction was
defeated by the crumbly nature of the
material. Finally a device was en-
ployed that exhausted the air. after
which the blocks were again pressed.
and when this was done the material
was found to be as hard as when taken
from the quarry. But thousands upon
thousands of dollars were spent in ex-
periments before the result was reach
ed.

Would Chance Baseball Rules.

On the Pacific coast a movement has
been started to amend the baseball
rules so as to make it more expensive
for d pitcher to hit a batsman. 1t is
proposed to give the batsman two
bases instead Of one. There is another
seform in the air. and that is discard
ing the spit ball. which it is argued is
one of the chief reasons that hitting is
fast becoming a lost art in every
league throughout the country.

The question is then repeated to the
second player. who is very likely to
offer pie. pork. pepper or something
which contains the letter p" His Of
Tense is % explained to him. He is
simply told that his contribution is
not wanted. and he looks on while the
others play. When a sufficient num-
