Irwin became enthusiastic, and sent

A Bad Elephant, Lighted Lamp and Q
Lucky Blow.
An odd experience fell to the lot of
three men who were on = tiger hunt

To prevent the invasion of mosQui-
toes and other insects that would be
attracted by the light In their quar-
tiers the heavy cotton curtain which
formed the door OF the tent was closed.
and the three friends were chatting
across the table when suddenly the
whole tent shook. and as they looked
round to see the cause the heavy cur
tain was roughly snatched away. and
in the open doorway appeared the
head Of n big elephant
The men had no time to catch up
their rifles. They knew by the ap.
pearance of the animal that he meant
mischief. Lifting up the roof OF the
tent with his head he threateningly
swung out his trunk at the man near.

At this the hunter sprang to his feet
and. seizing the lighted lamp from the
table, hurled it with all his strength
against the animals forehead. The
glass broke at the blow. and the blaz
ing oil covered the animals trunk with
a sheet of flame.
With cry of terror the beast drew
frantically back. shook of the curtain

1t was a fortunate act, for the animal

probably have killed one or more OF

MODES OF TRAVEL.
From the Jauntins Car to the Modern
Electric Railway.

Electric Railway.
The first jaunting car was establish
ed in Ireland in 1915 by Milanese.
Carlo Bianconi, who settled in Dublin
and drove every day to Caher and
back. charging twopence mile. From
this small beginning in 1887 he had
established sixty-seven conveyances.
drawn by 900 horses.
The extension of modern manufac-
turing towns and cities dema nded still
greater conveniences. which were sup
piled at first by the omnibus lines,
which up TO 1850 were the chief means
of urban and fnterurban trausporta-
ton. To these succeeded the street
railroad. traversed by cars drawn by
one or more horses. and these in turn
beca me wholly inadequate to meet the
demand of the suburban districts.
The cable car, drawn by underground
cable, was the next innovation, but
this about 1880 to 1890 was supplanted
by the electric trolley lines. and these
again were supplemented In many cit
les by elevated and subway lines in
which the cars were propelled by cleo
tricity supplied by a third rail. This
latter device has already been applied
to extended lines of railroads. and ii
is not unlikely that the present CEN
fury will witness the electrification of
most of the railroad lines in thickly
settled countries National Magazine.

CORAL REEFS.
They Cannot Form In the Line Of
Fresh Water Flow.

They Cannot Form In the Line Of .
Fresh Water Flow.
Coral reefs surround many of the is
lands in the Pacific. They protect the
lowlands from the washing of the
waves. and the still waters inclosed by
them are the only harbors Of refuge
for ships. The reefs themselves fur
nish the greatest peril to navigation.
and If there were no inlet through
which a vessel could enter their pro-
tected circle they would be danger
and nothing else.
But almost every reef has such an in
let. 1t is a necessary result of the laws
under which the forces Of nature work.
To understand this we must see how
these reefs are formed
Chemically the reef corals are almost
pure carbonate of lime. the substance
of ordinary limestone and marble. The
reef grows as the she'll of the oyster
or of any other shellf1sh grows. 1t is
itself the common and undivided shell
of innumerable polypi. or minute in
sects, which are being reproduced and
are dying in successive generations.
These tiny beings get all their living
from the waters of the sea. 1t is from
this source also that they derive the
salts of lime from which they secrete
the bony structure that remains after
the animal is dead.
The coral polypi cannot live in fresh
water. Their food supply is brought
to them by the waves and currents OF
the sea. AS result, it is found that
directly opposite the mouth of stream
from the island the reef does not grow.
There will be the inlet to the inclosed
waters.-Harpsr's Weekly.

In times of financial difficulties the
Loochooans, residents of the south
western islands of Japan, sometimes
pawn the graves of their relatives.
They are always redeemed, however,
as failure to do so means family dis
grace. The turtleback shaped tombs,
usually located on hillside facing the
water, are elaborate affairs of stone
and cement, and their cost and upkeep
often bankrupt the family.

SCOTT FINDS COAL
IN THE ANTARTIC
Remarkable Discovery Re
ported in an Account of
Explorations.
tNational News AssocIafion)

LONDON, April 3.-Privations and
hair-breadth escapes from death, in dis
tinct contrast with the easy journey
OF Captain Raold Amundsen. marked
the South pole dash of Capt. SCOTS
British expedition, according TO dis
patches received here from Akaroa, n.
T., by the Central News and published
today.
However none of the party had been
lost up to the time the Terra Nova
sailed northward from McMurde
sound and Lieut. Bennett, commander
of the ship, brought news from the
Antarctic that makes it almost GER
tainty that Scott will be successful in
his quest. Already the scientists in
the party have made the most import
ant discoveries ever yet accomplished
within the shadow of the south pole.
They found coal and fossils, the first
ever located in the Antarctic.
The Terra Nova will sail south in
November to pick up the two parties
left behind. one of these, headed by
Scott in person, planned to push on
to the pole; the other commandered
by Lieut.. Campbell is in South Victor
la land, doing scientific work.
Started on His DASH
Captain Scott started on his depot
establishing dash on Jan. 25, 1911 The
party consisted of IL men, ponies
and dog teams. The party met with
a series of billiards. which killed one
of the ponies and several of the dogs.
IN
1912 degrees, the party was forced to
turn back ...
On the trip back the party ran into
a crevasse on White Island A dog
team was>swallowed up and Scott and
Meares, a driver, had narrow escapes.
They were saved by clinging to a nat
'ural bridge which crossed the crew
.asse.
Inclement weather continued. There
were heavy falls of snow, and high
winds which piled the snow into enor-
nous drifts. Travel was both tedious
and dangerous. The ice floes were full
of holes and extreme caution had to
he used to avoid these.
The party finally arrived at Hut
Point, the winter camp, after adven-
lures and hardships which none of
the party escaped. Up to April II, the
temperature at Hut Point continued at
40 degrees below zero.
With indefatigable energy Capt.
Scott and other members of the party
continued making trips away from the
base, despite the hardships of storm
and the dangers of travel
Scott said that the winter night be-
gan with the setting of the sun, May 2,
whereas Capt. Amundsen in his nara
tive said that the sun set April %. The
temperature during the winter re-
manned from 40 to so degrees below
zero
The winter was spent in doing sci
entific work. There were lectures and
the men played football for diversion.
The final dash started from winter
camp November 2, 1911. This was
nearly month later than the Amund-
sen start. Photographers snapped pic
lures constantly and moving picture
machine was operated. Later they
will be produced in the first moving
pictures taken in the Antarctic. Scott's
last message was sent back January 3,
1912, when he was $50 miles from the
pole and still pushing on.
