MISSION FOR THE ANTIQuARY


Al interesting discovery has been
aade IN the wild and mountainous
Pass OF DFumochter. Scotland. some
three miles to the south Of Dalwhin-
me. where Glasgow contractors are
carrying on operations for the Inn
provement Of roads. The stones In q
large cairn close by the Great North
ROAD, between Perth and Inverness,
were being utilized for road metalling
purposes. and while engaged In remov-
Ing these stones the workmen came
upon z wellpreserved human skele-
ton- The skeleton was found close to
tne outer edge Of the cairn. which is
some nifty feet IN circumference, and
OF considerable height. Further oper-
auons revealed q stone cist or coffin
IN the center Of the cairn. There was
apparently no connection between the
skeleton and the cist. In view Of its
exposed position and excellent state
OF Preservation the interment Of the
skeleton must have taken place In
comparatively recent times. It's only
covering consisted of about foot OF
loose stones. The cist was formed OF
large rough slab supported by rows
OF upright stones, suggestive Of Pic
tlsn origin. How it came to be In the
center Of the cairn Is not easily ex-
planned. The cairn itself IL said to
nave been placed there to commemor-
ate halt made by the Highland army
IN 1746. The Pass of Drumochter is
notable In Jacobite annals by reason
OF the fact that Sir John Cope held a
council Of war in the neighborhood In
August, 1745. Lord George Murray
successfully made series OF attacks
on posts held by the royalist army In
the neighborhood Of Drumochter, so
that the cairn may have been erected
to commemorate some such event.

Bad Bachelor Hippos.

Sir John Kirk and Livingstone were
attacked by hippopotamus that was,
no doubt, a bachelor" Speaking of
the hippopotami of the Chobe, Living
stone says that "as certain elderly
males are expelled from the herd they
become soured in their temper and so
misanthropic as to attack every canoe
that comes near them. The herd is
never dangerous except when canoe
passes into the midst of it when all
are asleep, and some of them may
strike the canoe in terror. AS rule,
these animals flee the approach of
man. The 'solitaires,' however, fire.
Quent certain localities well known to
the Inhabitants on the banks and, like
the rogue elephants, are extremely
dangerous. Livingstone learned that
when attacked by one you should dive
to the bottom and keep there few
seconds, since the hippi soon moves
off if he finds nobody on the surface.
