PERSISTENT BEAVERS.
A Battle of Wits Between the Animals
and the Engineers.

AIN efV -hS'fOosS A[+s
When the Grand Trunk railway ran
its line across a swamp in a game pre-
serve on the line Of the Alberta Rock.
les there was a wonderfully CONSTRUCT
ed beaver dam holding the water back
to food the swamp.
This In the eyes of the game warden
was pure waste, and he ordered the
engineers to prevent it without harm
Ing the beavers. OF course the dam
could have been blown up with dyna-
mite. but that would have meant the
death of most of the little animals and
death very likely In great pain at that.
So the engineers cut an opening in
the dam. The mud had become almost
as hard as concrete. and it took the
men three days to get the water run.
ming out steadily. Then, thinking their
troubles with the industrious little fel.
lows over. they started work on the
railway through the swamp.
Soon the water began to rise, and
the work was stopped in a few hours.
The engineers made all haste to the
lam and found the animals had repair.
ed the cut and made it tight again.
a fresh cut was made, but after the
men had gone the beavers busted
themselves and made 1t stronger than
ever, Work was again stopped on the
railroad within a few hours.
Then a deep hole was made in the
earth far under the dam. The beavers
were much puzzled. Never before had
they seen water go down into the
ground and come up far away. But
they lent their whole attention to the
problem, and the work on the railroad
was again stopped as a consequence
and the foundations soaked with wa
ter.
Then followed an engagement of
wits between the beavers and the en-.
gineers. But every time the men
found a way TO cut the dam in a new
place the beavers found q way to
stop 1t.
The road was finally constructed by
working a few hours at a time, and the
loss to the contractors amounted to

SHEEP DOG TRIALS.
Australia's National rastime, the Nal.

Australians National Pastime, the Nal.
tese Cross Test.
Sheep dog trials may be considered
a national pastime If o a national
sport In Australia. There Is an an
nuaI agricultural show In every town
and village in the pastoral parts. There
are general competitions on the lines
OF the American county and state
fairs. There are horse races, buck
jumping. shearing, log chopping and
other strenuous competitions. But not
one Of these excites more interest than
the sheep dog trials. and In these tests
Australians have set the example Of
certain Of the most serious tasks that
q man and a dog may be asked to ac-
compltsh with three strange sheep
sheep that had never previously met
until they had a moment before been
turned out from three separate pens
to be packed or gathered together by
the dog.
1t was the Australians who first put
forward. and they still maintain II, the
Maltese cross test. The eight six-foot
hurdles are set in the shape OF a NAL
tese cross. The passages are OF a width
that will permit only one sheep to pass
through at a time. The animals have
to be driven north and south and east
and west, all the passes being open at
the time. The skill and patience OF
the dog are here tried to the utmost.
and there can be little wonder there is
a gasp Of satisfaction and a cheer of.
Joy when the sheep have been success
fully driven through these narrow
ways.
The Australian sheep dogs are the
smallest In use In the world. but are
quick and lively In their work It Is
no wonder that the Australian gives
much thought for his dogs. for 1t goes
without saying that the work OF the
sheep station could not be accomplish
ed without them. In ordinary cases
it is reckoned that one dog can do the
work Of half q dozep men. In many
instances q dog Is superior to fifty hn-
mans, and where there are such vast

many compositions In use seem not to

answer the question, What Is the best

cludes from tests made that undressed
