The Prairie Wolf

1t is said by those who know the
beast well, that the prairie wolf,
though not courageous when opposed
to man, is a fine member of the ami
NAL world. He has a cunning brain,
a subtle instinct and q strange no
madic, prowling nature. Few wild
animals are such natural-born scouts,
such interchangeable self-supporters,
such playful fellows among their kind.
Many a settler has seen the timber
wolf start out with his brothers on a
midnight raid and pause on reaching
the lesser forest lakes to take an
hours scamper on their frozen sur
face. At these times the whole pack
breaks loose into fun, rolling and
tumbling over each other like kittens,
racing and playing tag until, as a
Woodsman says, you can almost hear
them laugh. In spite of his great fear
# mantle man with a gun-he can
hold his own at close quarters, and is
one of the fiercest wild things in the
world. He lives and dies, always
lean, always with eyes glazing for
desh, always unsatisfied.

Ostriches That Waltz.

One of the oldest sights on the
sandy stretches of plain in southern
Africa Is a party of waltzing os-
triches. A recent writer on the sub
ject thus describes their queer antics:
when there are number of them
they will start off in the morning and,
after running a few hundred yards,
will stop, and with raised wings will
whirl rapidly round till they are stupe-
fed, or perhaps break leg. The
males pose also before fighting and
to make their court. They kneel on
their ankles, opening their wings and
balancing themselves alternately for
ward and backward or to one side or
the other, while the neck is stretched
on a level with the back and the head
strikes the sides, now on the right,
now on the left, while the feathers are
bristling The bird appears at this
time so absorbed in it's occupation as
to forget all that is going on around
him, and can be approached and
caught The male alone utters cry,
which sounds much like an effort to
speak with the mouth shut tight"

Heat and Oil Cut Bottle.

In tempering steel for certain pur-
poses the redhot metal is plunged into
a bath of oil, such as olive oil, cotton
seed oil, lubricating oil, to cool it.
Recently while an oldtime mechanic
was tempering a rod of steel he put
the oil in a piece Of broken bottle,
and when he thrust the hot metal into
the oil the glass cracked evenly all
around right at the surface Of the oil.
The ring made by the crack was as
even as If it had been carefully
marked and etched by a glass cutter.
The crack broke right through the
glass so clean that the top could be
lifted.
The reason for this is that the heat
from the iron was suddenly taken up
by the OIL and this caused quick
expansion of the bottle up as far as
the oil went AS the glass was cool
above, this sudden expansion caused
it to break on that line.

who have been making all kinds of
wild propositions to Pal. The lit
tie fighter, who has been in the pub
lie eye lately as a real conner, is but
10 years old. The adoption was with
the consent of Moore's mother. 1t
means that De Forest will have
absolute control of the youngster for
at least two years, and while Pal and
Jimmy may have row and Pal may
refuse to fight for his new dad" the
new dad" is in a position to prevent
Pal from fighting for any other per-
son. In the last two years, before
making a real fighter of the boy, jim
my De Forest has spent several thou
sand dollars in teaching Pal the
game.
1t is said De Forest plunged into
debt to give his protege the chance
at the big purses in the prize ring.
Now that Pal may be a conner, Jimmy
IS taking no wild chances on another
manager getting hold of him.
Pal was unnoticed when a prelim-
mary performer in his native town,
but when he became star, a few of
the managers tried the old game of
stealing him from the man who made

CAUSE OF LOWER BIRTH RATE
ENGLISH AUTHORITY PUTS
BLAME ON CHILD LABOR LAWS.
Parents Unable to Support Offspring
Until They Are Allowed to
Work-No Remedy
Suggested.

Prof. Karl Pearson, the noted Eng
lish authority on eugenics, has recent
ly made some startling charges
against the child labor laws in Eng
land which he substantiates with
statistics. There has been consider
able worry and specialization abroad
about the decreased birth rate. This
decrease, says Pearson, is due to the
fact that the poorer workers children
are no 10 ger an economic asset
Since a pIrent is not permitted to
send mis- sons and daughters into the
factories before they are sixteen and
since he cannot afford to maintain
them without their help to that age,
he is not going to have more than
one or two children at most.
Now since science, in the branch of
eugenics, has determined that the
first and second child are usually in
ferior in physical and mental strength
to the later born, this falling off
means that not only less chilren but
inferior children are being brought
into the world by the working people
Doctor Pearson would by no means
repeal child labor laws, but as yet he
has suggested no immediate remedy
for present defects. He proposes a
system of maternity pensions to be
subscribed by the state, employers
and workingmen as the only solution
but this is all in the future and mean
time the birth rate is falling off at an
alarming rate.

Trottinq Records.

AS a result Of the harness racing
season during the year just closed the
worlds championship tables have I'M
dergone 20 changes, of which "a are
for trotting and five are for pacing
hOnors
The greatest of the years cham
pions is The Harvester, who has low
cred eight records, five of which were
held up to this year by Cresceus for
nine years. The performances of The
Harvester have now completely wiped
off the name of Cresceus from the
championship lists, the last of his
marks to be lowered being that for
two miles. The old mark Of 4:17 is
now replaced with 4:15A.
The oldest record to go by the
boards is that of Arion, 2:10& as a
two-year-old trotting colt, a mark
which Justice Brooke reduced to
2:095. The fastest record of the year
is of course that Of Uhlan, who trot-
ted a mile in 1 5S% at the North Ran
dali, O., track, and who set the
worlds record below the two-minute
mark for the first time without the as
sfstance Of wind shield or a runner

Catching runners off first base is an
art few pitchers have developed.
Jimmy Collins, at one time the great
est third baseman in the game, is an
authority on baseball. He says in dis
cussing the art of mailing runners:
ED Walsh of the Chicago White
Sox," says Collins, lis the hardest
pitcher l have ever played against
when it comes to getting a lead off
first. Let me tell you right now that
Walsh has the most battling motion
of any pitcher in the country, bar
none. l, myself, think it is a clear
case of balk when Walsh winds up
and then slaps the ball over to first
But no umpires have called him for
1t, except in one or two cases, where
the offense was palpable.
There are only few runners, men
like Eddie Collins and Ty Cobb, who
dare to take more than a couple of
feet lead off first when Walsh is in
the box. They depend on excessive
speed to beat the ball to first, but
sometimes even they are fooled. You
never can tell what Walsh is going
to do until you actually see tho bats
man swing at the ball Thet. you
know that Walsh has pitched to the
plate.
Next to Walsh l place that crafty
Indian, Bender of the champion Ath-
letics. You simply have to keep your
eyes on Bender all the time while you
are loafing around first base or he
will outguess you. For that matter,
he often outwits you even when you
are watching him. l think that's one
of the reasons Bender has developed
into leading pitcher.

ELIGIBLE FOR BIG FUTURITY
List of FoaIs of 1910 Named for Ken
lucky Classic Shows 874-Many
From Blue Grass State.

Secretary Horace Wilson of the
association has announced that S74
weanlings have been kept eligible to
the twenty-first annual renewal Of the
Kentucky Futurity, $4,000, for foals
of 1910.
The list comes from 81 states, and
from Canada and England. The list
aggregates 81, and 80 have five wean-
lings to their credit, or a total OF Ats,
this number representing SIS per cent.
Of the entire list The largest list
comes from w. E. D. Stokes farm, the
Patchen Wilkes nursery, at Lexington,
which names So entries, 48 of which
are by Peter the Great.
Walnut Hall farm, owned by l.. V.
Hardness, also contributes 62 and for
the first time in many years is second
in the list of entries. The majority
of these are by Moko, Walnut Hall and
Ozone. Other farms represented are
J. K. Newton's place, Claiborne farm,
William Allen Russelrs place, Simp-
sons Empire City farms, Cuba, N. Y;
the International Stock Food farm of
Minneapolis, MINI.
Peter the Great heads the stations
with so weanlings, probably the rec
ord number by one sire in any renew
al Of the Futurity. These 26 sires
represent the fashionable and popular
blood lines of the present day, and all
but four have records in standard
time. Ten have records from 1:55
to 2:09A.
In the list by states, Kentucky leads,
furnishing about 40 per cent. In this
connection it is of interest to note that
Kentucky breeders named about 40
per cent of the mares entered last
March. New York holds second place,
with 1913 weanlings kept in. Both Of
these states show liberal increase
over last year, and over one-half the
total list of weanlings have been en-
tered by the breeders Of these two
states. Massachusetts, as usual comes
third, being represented by SO, and
this year Pennsylvania advances to
fourth place with 43.

WINTER SPORT.

I saw a gladstone sight,
I stood upon a hill
Whose gentle slope extends far down
Beyond the silent mill;
And snow and ice had made the place
glorious one to coast
And half a hundred girls and boys
Were out-a merry host
Some seds were shod with shining steel
And decked with red and blue;
And some were made by unskiiled handsr
Yet sped right swiftly, too.
And rude tOboggans, loaded well
With happy children, made
Their daring trips, the noisy crews
Laughing and unafraid.
l saw six merry little girls
In one unbroken train
Go coasting down without a sled!
| looked and looked again;
And as they climbed the hill, I saw
Each carried in her hand
Just this-a kitchen dust-pan,
Broad, strong and well japanned.
Each mounted, and around her feet
Tucked carefully her gown.
Then on this cutter, queer but fleet,
Triumphantly rode down.
Safely they rode, with joyous shouts.
They seemed to like 1t well;
Though how they steered their funny
craft
I'm sure 1 cannot tell

there Is Addie Joss of Cleve-

Then there is Addie Joss of Cleve-
Griffith never had anything on Addie
when it comes to being pitching fox.
Why, I've stood up by the bag and
thought that Joss had thrown to the
plate when really l was being tagged
out at first You have to keep your
eyes peeled on Addie. Johnson of the
Nationals and Donovan of the Tigers
are two pitchers hard to take lead
on.
In the National league I consider
Mathewson of the Giants, Brown of
the Cubs and possibly Phillippi of the
Pirates leaders in this particular
phase of the game. OF course Phil
lippi Is growing old and has slowed up
some, but when he was at his best
nobody had anything on him. l have
played against him and know pretty
well what I'm talking about.
while we are on this subject let
me say that the third baseman has a
lot to do in catching runners off first.
1t is generally his part to give the sig
nal to the pitcher when the man is
far enough off first to shoot the ball
over. There are some teams where
the catcher gives the signal, but the
third baseman can do it best Next
time you are at a game when Walsh
is pitching and there is a runner on
first just watch Harry Lords actions
Walsh will be standing moistening the
ball and keeping one eye glued on
Lord. Suddenly Lord will shift one of
his hands or will reach up to grab at
his hat. At that second you will see
Walsh whip the ball over to first and
frequently there's a dead runner"
