NATURAL BORN HUNTERS.
Brazilian Natives Are Only R;vaisd BY
Those Of Australia.

Brazilian Natives Are Only R;vaisd BY
Thoss Of Australia.
If you want to find q thoroughbred
sportsman you must look among the
natives Of the Brazilian forests. Espe-
fctally among the Botocudo. to whom
tracking game is the chief business Of
bis life. He does 1t with such skill
that he dis the white man with awe
and wonder.
s However enthusiastic q huntsman
sou are you will feel yourself a poor
sportsman after watching him for
little while. The Botocudo hunter
glides stealthily through the Forest.
He understands every sign and habit
of bird and beast. He knows how
high up an armadillo displaces the
leaves Of tree in passing. He can
distinguish the tracks Of the snake
and the tortoise. He can follow the
tortoise to its burrow by the scratches
OF its scaly armor on the mud. His
sense Of smell Is so keen that It helps
him great deal in hunting. Hidden
behind the trunk Of tree he can im-
itate the cries Of birds and beasts to
bring them within range Of bis deadly
poisoned arrow. He can even entice
the alligator by making her rough eggs
crate together where they lie under
leaves on the river bank. II he shoots
at an ape and the animal does not fall
he will climb up after the animal by
hanging creeper where no white man
would climb. However dark the for
est. he Is Indifferent to this darkness
Laden with his bag of game he finds
bis way back to his hut by the sun
and the lay of the ground.
His only rival is the Australian ma
tive. He will lie in wait behind
screen of boughs. He waits until the
kangaroo comes to drink. or he will
track him for days in the open. He
will camp by his fire to be ready for
bis pursuit at early dawn. He keeps
unseen to leeward.
When 4 number hunt together they
will put up a brush fence in two long
wings. converging toward a pit. and SO
drive the kangarOos into it. They also
form great hunting parties for a bat.
tue surrounding half mile of bush.
land. and with shouts and clatter they
drive all the game to the center where
they can close round and dispatch
them with spears and waddies. In
fow!ing they show the same adroit-
ness. A native will swim under wa
ter. breathing through a reed. He
merely covers his head with water
weed till he gets among flock Of
ducks, which one by one he pulls un.
der and tucks into his belt. They
rarely need to make use of dogs in
h,tsting, though@tfey had learned this
way Of hunting long before the white
man knew anything about it. They
used the dingo or native dog.-Chicago

NATIONAL COMMITTEEMAN.

Gunder Olson of Grafton is out with
an announcement as candidate for ma.
tional committeeman for the Republi-
cans of the state. Mr.. Olson is one OF
the best known businessmen of the state,
having served as state treasurer fol-
many years and resident of Grafton
since that city was placed on the map.
He has been identified with the Republi.
can party ever since we learned to know
him, which was in the early sos and we
never knew him to desert bis colors in
the various political upheavals during
that time and he never allowed himself to
be carried away by extremists in his
own party. With these qualifications
in his favor we see no reason why he
should not represent the Republicans Of
North Dakota on the national commit.
tee, il he wants to.

The River Jordan.

Religion. history and nature conspire
to make the Jordan the most famous
river of the earth. Across it the hosts
of Israel were led into the Promised
Land; in its waters tie Christian rite
OF baptism h:d its birth: up and down
its valley many civilizations in the
morning of history rose and fell. Per-
haps the strangest thing about this IA
nous river is that none Of the ancients
ever guessed that its mouth was be-
low the level of the sea. 1t was not
until 1874 that accurate measurements
were made and the mouth of the river
was found 1892 feet below the Medi-
terranean. less than sixty miles away.

Never Deceive an Animal.

In Farm and Fireside appears the
following advice as to the training OF
animals:
You never can train colt. calf
or any animal. wild or tame. unless
you gain it's entire confidence and af-
fection. To do this you must never
deceive it. not even for fun. and al.
ways protect it and show that you
love it.
1.-The way to a mans heart is
through his stomach and the road to
the affection of an animal is by way
Of its taste
"An apple, a bit of tender grass OF
some tasty bit will soon make friends
with 1t. and kind words and petting
will make it loving and obedient
friend"

PRIvATEERs.

During the 10Th, 18th and 18th cent.
urles large part Of the "navies" of the
nations of the world were composed of
"privateers''. A privateer proper is an
armed vessel owned by private indlvi-
duals but which fights for its own coun-
try and preys on the merchant vessels
owned by the enemy, which prizes be-
long to the captors. In the revolution.
ary war the United States had many of
these privateers and some of the owners
and crew made fortunes.
History informs US however, that at
least in the older days, that these pri.
vateers many times were little better
than pirates and preyed on any COM
merce they might come across. Any
way, it is easy to see that any such ships
would not be under the control of their
own governments as they would have
been if they were under regular naval
officers and rules.
As most of these ships were small and
poorly armed, 1t was then common for
merchant ships to carry guns for de-
fence purposes and perhaps occasionally
when meeting weaker ship to become
privatees for the occasion.
The abuses of power made by priva-
teersmen at last reused the nations to
make ''privateers" and privateering on a
par with piracy. That is, no ship
should be considered as regulation n
fighting ship unless regularly commits
stoned by the government and be mann
ed by officers and crews of the regular
navy, and this has become general inter-
national law.
Now, because of the danger from sub.
marines, some ocean liners have mount
ed one, two or three guns for defense
purposes only, as they say. 1t is true
that an ocean going liner with rifed
gun or two could stand quite chance
of sinking submarine as the latter has
generally either no guns or but one or
two.
Now comes Germany and proclalms.
that hereafter she will treat all ships so
armed as regular naval vessels, which of
course means that she can sink them
without warning if the submarines get
the opportunity.
Further, if these armed merchant
ships come into neutral ports like those
of the United States, then the Unit
ed States should treat them just as If
they were naval vessels of warring
country, which would mean, that they
could not take passengers or freight and
not remain more than twenty.four hours
under pehslty of being interned during
the remainder of the war.
1t will be seen from this explanation
that the Washington authorities have
another nut added to their collection, to
crack. Also, for the gentlemen who sit
on the boxes at the country grocery
stores and solve the war issues along
with tobacco juice.

PROGRESS OF THE WAR.

No progress on all fronts. During our
Civil War when there had been no fight
ing the headlines Of the daily papers us
ed to repeat All quiet on the Potomac 81
These words which then passed into a
sort of proverb, would however not be
applicable to the present war. Then ar
tillery and trench fighting were then of
little Importance. To-day these are the
mighty arms of war. Everyday the guns
roar along hundreds of miles of battle
front, every day few scores Of yards OF
trenches are taken by one side or the
other, every day mines are exploded un-
der trenches full of men, every day aero.
planes drop bombs. and sea mines and
submarines get in there deadly work.
All this work OF "attrition' and 'irri-
tation'' and "frlghtfulness" is using up
human life at fearful rate. Battles are
but few, but blood continually flows in
torrents.
Every yard of trenches taken costs the
vlctors more than it is worth, to them in
sratigecal value. The advantage is al
most purely local.
England has worked q new plan OF
voluntary conscription. Under a
plea of patriotism they got nearly all the
men of fighting age to enroll under de
claration that they would enlist if the
,.ount ~ needed them.
Now the Government has informed all
the young single men that the country
needs them now. The Empire Of late
has been rushing soldiers to the front
and with volunteers in camp and in the
field it now has. a very large army, and
as one result has taken over some forty
miles of battle front formerly occupied
by the French.
The "Lusitana" case has gotten down
to about this basis; Germany says il is
sorry, will not do it again. but will not
admit that it had no right to do it.
That big operations will occur in the
spring seems certain, but when and
where no one seems to know. Perhaps
even the generals do not know. The
breakup is very likely to be the result
of accident.
