Cruel Tortures Inflicted on Animals In

In an illustrated pamphlet issued by

is carried out by beginning the tiaying

of these cases. which came under the
notice of the Hon. Mrs Charlton, the
laying had been partially carried out,
and the animal. though rescued from

them against invaders who might climb

KING OF WILD BULLS.
lndia's Gaur Combines Courage and
Audacity With Great Strength.

The gaur is often wrongly termed

bison is the Dos bonassus of Lithuania
and the Caucasus The gaur, found in
Indo- China, is certainly the finest of all
the wild bulls; he overawes all OPP

great strength
He is u huge beast and sometimes
measures six feet to the root of the

ringed. and they describe very wide
curve from the root upward.
The coat Is of an olive brown tint.
shading In black. with very short. fine
hair.
The gaur Is found both in the forest
and on the mountains. for. in spite Of
his great size, he is extremely agile. so
that he can run up the mountain slopes
and climb the rocks with ease.
Like the elephant, he feeds on grass
and plants. and when he cannot get
these he falls back on bamboo shoots
and the buds and branches of trees.
The gaurs feed until about 8 o'clock
In the morning; then they return to the
bamboo forests and clearings to sleep.
Later In the afternoon they come out
to gr.ize and drink. They are not timid.

THE Improvement in the general ap

Gathering comments which it arouses
This important measure is generally
neglected by men. yet aside from the
beneficial psychic influence. for aesthe-
tic reasons alone the old man should
endeavor to make himself appear as
attractive as possible.
This does not mean that he should
resort to the artificial devices that
middle aged and elderly women en-
ploy to enhance their charms. 1t does
mean that he old man should stimulate
the surface circulation by means of
baths and massage. remove wrinkles

fats. try to stimulate the growth of
hair on the head and remove hair from
abnormal situations as the ears. use a
cane and wear braces to overcome the
tendency to stoop. employ harmless
cosmetic measures to improve his ap-

sor David Todd of Amherst has made
his mark. for he has expressed the
opinion that on July IL. 1901, on the
mountain peak of Popocatepetl or ORR
zaba. in Mexico. there will be a great
gathering of astronomers and other
scientists. possibly greater gathering
than any one of the sort ever taking
place before that time He has deter
mined that on that date there will be
the finest eclipse of the sun ever known
since eclipses were first predicted with

Torrance
AS eclipses are the only opportunities
for studying certain qualities of the
sun and sunlight and as the energy
from the sun. which supports all life
on earth. is arousing more and more
study because Of the possibilities for
human progress Ii offers. he feels GER
tain that in 1901 there will be even
more interest in eclipses than there is
at present.
One reason why it will be a remark
able eclipse is that it will be total for
minutes 10 seconds. The longest
one ever known was minutes 20 sec
onds. while the longest one that can
ever happen can only be minutes SO
seconds
Another advantage Is that the sun
will be directly overhead. SO that there
will be the least possible amount of in
reference from the atmosphere. The
great interest In an eclipse is the CO.

when the moon entirely hides the sun
1t is from the corona that many of the
most important secrets Of the sun have
been learned
Professor Todd has found that in the
next 300 years there will be nine total
ecipses of the sun visible in Mexico
many of them fine ones. though none
