WHERE GUY FAWKES PLOTTED
White Webbs Park Said to Be Scene
of Gunpowder Plot Con-
spiracy.

White Webbs park, whose footpaths
are in dispute, is the center of two in
terestlng legends, says London dis
patch.
Local tradition has it that White
Webbs house was one Of the meeting
places of the gunpowder plot conspira-
tors; and 1t is at any rate certain that
Fawkes was frequent visitor there.
And apparently the house was of a
kind to lend itself to plotting, for the
commissioners who searched 1t after
Guys arrest reported it to be full Of
trapdoors and passages, presumably
secret.
This house was demolished in 1870.
but some portions OF it's outbuildings
are probably embodied in the King and
Tinker inn, for which the story of King
James and the Tinker is claimed. This
legend, to which, by the way. Enfield
is not the sole claimant. tells how the
king. separated from his hunting com.
panions, came across the tinker, who,
after some familiar conversation, ex.
pressed a wish to see the monarch
He was hidden to mount behind his
new friend and look out for the only
man who kept his hat on when they
rejoined the hunting party. and in due
course found that he had been sharing
the kings horse.

sIay Elephants With Spears.

The Jieng people, an African tribe,
are remarkably brave, and they re-
Gently killed two man-eating lions
with spears alone. This means that
the first men attacking the animal
are killed to a certainty before their
companions are enabled to rush in
and despatch the wounded animal.
They also hunt elephants in the
very primitive and dangerous fashion
of dropping weighted spears upon the
elephant from branches OF trees.
These spears remain fixed, and the
elephant exists YOr days until 1t Is
exhausted by the increasing number
OF spears which are embedded in its
hide. The country is full of ivory,
large quantities of which are hidden
or buried and will probably never be
found
In one little village the people
killed Is hippos In three days sim
ply by throwing spears at the huge
creatures from frail dugout canoes.

shorthand notes are legiRle, and ne
can usually read them He Is neither

physician, he diagnoses with ordinary
accuracy, and is familiar with accept.

proficient in any calling, and the
chances are that all of them know
how to do several things well; many
Of them can do many things we'll.
