Fighting the Ratel

From the New York Sun
 There is a curious long nosed little creature of South Africa called the rateI which is said to exhibit a most peculiar method of fighting it's human adversa- ries. The son of q Britisher in South Africa, who was using for the first time a shotgun, had what hardly could be called an amusing experience with Q Tatel.
 The boy saw the ratel creeping around an ant hill He cantered off at a not very rapid pace and the boy fired at easy range. The animal turned heels over head, much in the same manner that tame squirrel will disport itself in wheel cage. The ratel paused once, as if in pain. but never took his eyes off the boy. The lad did not think of run ming. but clubbed his gun and stood prepared to meet spring.
 II happened that the English boy had never been told how the ratel fights. Almost every boy in the veldt knows. but this lad did not. To wait thus, expect ing a leap breast high, is to give the rate exactly the chance he wants Hesi- tating not second the rate glided swift ly in and seized the lads feet The boy hacked hin with the butt end of his gun. kicked at him, shouted his loudest. but the ratel gnawed away with the pertinacity of bull dog. At every blow the creatures teeth closed like q vics. The boy seized his long tail wrenched and twisted it, but the ratel would not quit his hold.
 The struggle lasted for shorter time than 1t takes to tell it. The muscles of the lads instep were cut through and he tumbied backward at full length but against an anthlll. This circum- stance probably saved his life.
 The ratel let go. as it does when Its

DEMOCRATS HAVE
 CENTER OF STAGE
Will Be Squabble Over the
 Convention Town
By raaru M. uurpns.pu

l Washington, January 6--(Special. )-The democrats have the center of the stage
 here next week. Not only will the dem ocratic national committee meet and name | the date and place for the national con vention, bu. that Jackson Day banquet, at which half dozen or more keynote l speeches by possible standard bearers will | formally open the democratic campaign. Perhaps most interest centers in the speech of Col. William Jennings Bryan. It was not so very long ago that the as- sertion was made with some force and no little glee that both the democratic and republican colonels were politically dead and would cut little figure in the cam pajgn of 1912,, but as New Year draws 1t has become evident that these declara- tions were a,gtrihe premature in both cases.
 Not only is Colonel Roosevelt alive enough to cause the republican leaders d good many thoughtful moments, but Col onel Bryan is giving the democratic lead CTS even more cause for worry
 There is q sort of an idea, how well founded it is impossible to say, that Colonel Bryan at the Jackson Day ban quet will takc occasion to make his po- sition as to the democratic candidate clear. If he does 1t will make prophecy as to the outcome of the convention very much safer
 The odds are very greatly against either Colonel Roosevelt or Colonel Bryan being ca.ndidates this year, but he would be a rash man who would declare that the nomination of either or both is impossl- ble.
 There is about as much uncertainty con corning the place for the next democratic convention. as there is to the action of the convention in the way of candidates.
 The entry of New York into the race for the convention complicates matters, but it is not considered likely that the Empire City can win. The balance of the country is too suspicious of Tammany methods
 Denver has a mighty good chance
 Collector Loeb will be the man at the repu bllcan helm in the event of Mir Taft's renomination.
 Charles D. Hiles in the last six months has discussed the work necessary to the effort to rcnominate and re-elect Presi- dent Tat with nearly every republican leader of consequence in the United States. Many of these leaders thought that MT Hjlles should head the commit tee, but to these MT Hiles made it plain

How the General Was Wounded

From the Toronto Mail and Empire
 A private soldier who had fought brava. ly during the Boer war had occasion Io seek employment of a well known gener- al. This private had had the misfortune to lose his nose while In action.
 The general WAS so ticlxled with tho appearance of the man that he burst into loud laughter, to the discomfiture of the soldier When his laughing had ceased the General said
 My good fellow, where did you lose your nose?'
 "I lost my nose. sir" said the nettIed private, fin the same battle that you lost your hsad."
