BUILD TIGER PROOF HOUSES
Malay Natives Perch Their Houses
High Up In Trees to Escape
Beasts.

The ordinary Malay house is built on
posts from five to seven feet high:
but one which / came across was
perched high up in a tree. 1t was
the home of a man, his wife and fam
lily, and they informed me that 1t was
placed In this unusual situation SO as
to be out Of the way of the
tigers which then infested the neigh
borhood.
AS tigers have been known to Jump
IL feet In vertical height somewhere
above 20 feet is considered to be the
limit of safety. The MaIayan house
IS a frail and flimsy structure of sticks
tied together with rattan thatched with
palm feaves and walled with plated
bamboo, or, as In this case with the
bark Of a tree.
1t Is therefore an easy matter for a
tiger with its great strength to break
into a house and attack the inhabtt-
ants. Many instances Of this have
been recorded in Malaga. In one well
known case a whole family were kill
ed except one man, who climbed up
into the roof, and thus escaping the.
notice Of the tiger, was a Mortified oh
serve of the cruel mauling and ulti-
mate slaughter and devouring of his,
relatives.-Strand.

Sydney Smith on Music.

There is a story, which we have not
been able to verify, of Sydney Smiths
once saying that he never had seen "a
degrading spectacle than that of
500 people fddling away about the chill
dren of Israel" AS against this unsub-
Stimulated anecdote it is only right to
quote the saying recorded In his Life"
volume l, page 442), "if I were to be-
gin life again, l would devote much
time to music. All musical people
seem to be happy; 1t is the most en-
crossing pursuit, almost the only In
nocent and unpublished passion" This
IS a noble tribute. though the general
lzation is perhaps too sweeping when
one thinks OF the loneliness OF Beetho-
ven, the early and tragic ends Of Mo-
Fart and Schubert, of Schumann and

WHEN IRVING PLAYED ROMEO
Silence, Light and Actors, the Three
Things Necessary for Artistic Ef-
feet and Atmosphere.

Wendell Phillips Dodge relates an
incident growing out of the first meet
ing OF Robert Mantell with Sir Henry
irving, back in 1882, when both we're
paying Romeo in London. There were
reviewers who found Irving too old
for the youthful Romeo, and n ad-
Ylsed that he should make way for
the young fellow owe at the Olym-
pic" Irving prepared a special aft
ernoon performance in the Lyceum, to
which all the players in London were
invited. After it was over, Mantell
went back of the stage, and Irving ask
cd him how he liked the performance.
1t has been like an afternoon at
school with c%ongenial lessons" replied
Mantell. How do you do it? How
DO you manage effects? How do you
get such atmosphere, such a r~ealiza-
ton of the glory of the tragedy, with,
such little effort? Is there no r~ecipe?"
There is; indeed there is" answer
ed Irving. Simple, too; only three
things to remember. The first is 81
lence, and plenty of it behind the
scenes, so that the actor may be at
ease, with nothing to distract when
striving for his shadings. The second.
is light. regulated as far as possible SO
that nature is counterfeited-and that,
young man, is the recipe"
But protested Mantel, you said
there were three things to remember;
you have mentioned but two. Is there
a third? ?"
Did l say a third?' asked Irving.
"Um, perhaps I did. perhaps 1 did;
but what could 1 have had in mind?
Let me see. All, yes, silence, light,
and-um, shall 1 say-actors? Re-
member that, my boy. actors. Silence,
light, and-actors, that is the third

A remarkable find of prehistoric

one hundred and fifty feet, the only
entrance to which Is by a hole in the
root. 1t was recently explored by
some climbers with the help of a long
rope ladder. A Roman helmet, dating
from the beginning of the Christian
era, which the owner had apparently
dropped down the hole, was first
round. Encouraged by this the i'm

two hundred lance heads, a number of

Friday night. 1t was I1annibars third |
game. The game was played at the
Young Mems Christian association |

the season here. There was a large
attendance of enthusiastic men and !
women and boys and girls, and the
game at times presented some very
exciting features.
The game resulted in score of "a
to IS in favor of Hannibal.
The Keokuk boys appeared bit
nervous up to the last ten minutes
when they seemed to take on a splen-
did courage and got in their work
wonderfully we'll. Hannibal had the
jump on Keokuk throughout the game
on account of superior height The
Keokuk fellows fumbled the ball re
peatedly and made many discouraging
near" plays. One long basket shot
by Devero has never before been
eQualled for luck in the history of
the game here, or scarcely anywhere
else for that matter. The defense of
the guards was good and the trick
plays by the home team worked nice
ly, but could not find the basket.
1t is conceded that the decisions of
Referee Findley were strictly fair and
he gave general satisfaction to those
we'll Informed in the rules of the
game. Orsborn was the referee in
l the second half OF the game, and
/ though there was kick which call
ed for the rule book, it showed that
i Orsborn was right and the band con-
| rinued to play. Some ugly temper
was displayed once during the game
and there was very perceptible hiss
rang through the hall when Referee
!! Findley called a foul. Calm reflee-
ton showed that Findley was right
The Keokuk team seemed to real
ize its lack of practice and this fact
may account for the apparent nerv-
BUSINESS and also partially accounts
for the many times that the ban miss
ed the basket. The Keokuk boys
/ have been putting in considerable
time at practice, but it has been a
very short time since the season be-
