INTELLIGENCE or ANT.
Remarkable Stories About Habits Of

New York Independent: The extra
ordinary habits of the harvester ant
have long been known to naturalists.
Certain species not only harvest n
store in granaries the seeds upon
which they feed. but actually plant and
cultivate an annual crop of their food
seeds. Still more remarkable stories
are told of an ant that is common in
DaImatia, the Messor barbarus. Ac-
cording to DR.. Meyer of the Dresden
forestry school, this ant not only cuts
leaves and gathers seeds, but actually
makes bread or biscuit! The seeds are
first sprouted, then carried into the
sun and dried. then taken back to the
underground chambers, where they are
chewed into a dough. The dough is
Their finally made into thin cakes,
which are baked in the sum-, then care
fully stored for future use.
From these observations 1T would
appear that the art of cookery is not
confined to the human rae All the
cooking is done by the III, whether
in the ripening of the fruit or in the
baking of bread in a stove. The heat
obtained from fuel is simply stored-up
sunlight set free. The Arab and the
native Mexican speak of ripe fruit as
fruit which has been cooked in the
sun. The ant has somehow learned
the art Of sun cookery, the saliva with
which it moistens the grain taking
the place of yeast and sweetening
through changes set UP by it's intiu-
ence upon starch.

ENJOYING
CAMPING LIFE
FIRST EXCITEMENT WAS FINDING
OF JAck-RABBIT IN COOK
SHANTY-PARTY WHO WENT IN
SEARCH OF BOAT GOT LOST IN
THE WOODS.

Report came from the Y. M. c.. A.
boys camp at. Cormorant and it is 10
the effect that the boys are enjoying
themselves to the greatest extent.
r. R. Wolf, DR.. Jackson. and L. E.
Goodwin went down to put a few i'm
provements on the grounds and to
open up the camp for the boys. One
of the large improvements that has
been made was the placing of a con
crete floor in the cook cabin. This is
very much better than the old sand
bottom that used to be the bore of
every cook. .-
The camp was opened very quietly
and really the only bit of excitement
was caused by a jack-rabbit who had
taken refuge in the cook shanty, per-
haps waiting for the frying pan.
The boys arrived on Monday at
about IL a. m. n at 1890 dinner
was served to the party by the chef.
1t was a most delightful camp dinner
and after camp organization was over
the boys went to it. The tents were
soon UP, the beds ready, the wood cut
for supper, and then the lake: The
boys boated, swan, and pulled off Ill
kinds of stunts that only boys can
think of.
A searching party went to Little
Cormorant at s p. m. in search Of a
new boat that the camp has purchased
and was thought to be delivered to
that lake some time the day before.
In taking supposedly short cuts the
party which consisted of four who
were not all small boys became some
what mixed up on their route and
directions and for four hours they
wandered in the opposite direction
from camp and for miles they ~travers-
ed the shores of Ida lake not know
in but that they were on Cormorant
lake. The party by arousing several
farmers and more farmers dogs at
last got the direction to camp, but it
ing that the braves crawled into their
hunks for a good sleep.
The boys are well organized in the
camp which is now in charge of Mr..
Henderson and one of the things that
is helping to make the camp a sue
cess is the good food that is cooked
for them by Bonnie Parker.
Frank CLANCY is leader in Camp No.
2 and Harry Clapp is captain owe
tent No. l. The boys each have their
daily duties such as sanitation OF
camp, WOO commissioners, commits
sioner on eats, and other duties that
come in camp life are taken care Of
by commissioners. The boys are taxi
ing Gibsons special camp Bible study
course under Mr.. Henderson. The
spirit IN camp is q and the boys
are all feeling fine.
The Camp Chronicle of which
Hewison Pollock is editor will be pub
lished later. This relates all the ac-
tlVit:es and jokes in camp.

New York, June 1S.-The Imperator,
the largest vessel afloat, will arrive in
New York June Is Or 10. She touched
at Southampton June IL on her way
over the Atlantic, and there, the home
of the Olympic Of the White Star line,
the largest ship till the Imperator was
launched, comparisons were made. The
lmperator is larger in every way than
the White Sta monster.
The enormous size of the ship may
be imagined from the size of one Of
the propellers. The blades alone are
longer than a man. The photograph
here shown was taken while workmen
stood on scaolds about the stern of
the ship.
The Imperator measures 919 feet | n
length, or almost one-fifth of a mile:
9S feet in width, or that of a great
boulevard, and has a tonnage of $4,000.
Her powerful quadruple turbine en-
mes drive her at an average speed of
22B knots an hour, crossing the At
lantic in six days. She Is manned by
a crew of 1,1S0. Despite her great
size, the Imperator carries only a few
more passengers than ships of half
her tonnage.

Each oven and utensil is controlled by
a snap switch, which instantly turns

desired degree of heat. The baking
oven for bread and pastry is entirely
separate from the general cooking.
IL is estimated that the electrical

THE GIRLS OF YESTERDAY.

The girls of yesterday! oh. say.
Where are the girls OF yesterday?
The girls who wore the Bingham frocks
In gardens fringed with h~ollyhocks;
Who baked the juicy cherry pies
That waited breaths of paradise
To mere expectant man?
Will some one tell me where, I pray,
They've gone-the girls of yesterday?
Are these gay matrons we behold
The modest maids of days OF old?
These gay old girls with lobster taste,
With lips berouged. forms tightly laced
These peeresses of man?
Alas! Their golden hair is gray
The vanished girls of yesterday;
And they have left us but the theme
OF an old fashioned, springtime dream,
Their hair is gray, but. over that,
They're wearing now a golden rat
The gay old girls today.

Brief Filed With New Hamp-
shire GOvernOr-GOOd
Faith of New York '
Is Questioned

Concord, N. H.. October 1S-In a supple
mentary brief on, behalf of Harry X.
Thaw filed today by his counsel with
Governor FelSer, it is declared, that Thaw
has been detained under arrest nearly
six weeks on a defective requistion petit
tion supported by the allegation OF an
Indictment which never existed and dur
ing all that time no indictment has been
obtained.
The brief question whether the requsi-
tion for Tllaws extradition is made in
good faith and whether the state of New
York demands Thaw's return for the pur-
pose of trying him for conspiracy or for
the purpose of reincarcerating him in the
Matteawan hospital for the insane.
'1f it is the latter purpose which
actuates New York. the brief says. "it
is ilegitimate; and for the governor OF
New Hampshire. to honor the reduisition
ould be illegal.
The brief then gives what 1t declares
to be the facts as to the attempt to indict
Thaw In conclusion the brief says:
at Is open to the governor OF New
Hampshire to make due inquiry whether
Thaw was indicted in New York, and
when the facts are ascertained due weight
should be given in considering the vital
question of the good faith of New York,
10 the fact that up to the present time
there never has been an Indictment fc.-
conspiracy against Thaw in New York. :

PREDICT SERIOUS
CAR SHORTAGE
Commerce Commission Makes yigor-
Gus Appeal to Railways and
Shippers to Take Action

Washington, October 1S.-Imminence Of
a serious car shortage on American rail-
roads induced the interstate commerce
commission to issue today a vigorous ap-
peal directed to both railways and ship
pers to give close attention to methods
of loading. unloading, moving and
promptly returning to use the cars
again.
Complaints from all parts of the coun-
try indicate the danger of shortage of
cars.
The commission believes that the pres
ent supply of cars is sufficient for all
normal purposes, but adds 1t will prove
inadequate for the movement of all traffic
offered for the Christmas holidays.
1t asks that the traffic be assisted
through the available cars being EN-
ployed fully and returned promptly.
