TRAPPED BY HIS BLIND RAGE.
For Stupid Obstinacy a Hir1alayan
Bear Takes the Prize.

For Stupid obstinacy Himalayan
Bear Takes the Prize.
Most wild animals are stupid as well
as greedy. but for sheer brainless OBJ
stinacy in the face of opposition"
writes Prince Sarath Ghosh in his book.
The Wonders Of the Jungle there is
no animal Ike the Himalayan bear. If
be finds a thing in his way he will al
ways push it aside if he can. even
though it would be easier to go round
the obstacle.
1.-THE willy natives Of India have OBJ
served that trait in his character and
from it have contrived trap to catch
him. They select a tree with suitable
horizontal bough At point on the
bough about ten or twelve feet from
the fork they fasten bait likely to at
tract the bear-honey. for example. or
goats flesh. Then from another bough
above that one they suspend heavy
block of stone. The rope is so attached
to the upper bough that the stone
hangs between the bait and the fork of
the tree.
The bear scents the bait from a dis
lance, comes to the tree, sees the food
on the bough and climbs up the trunk
Of the tree. Reaching the bough, he
walks along it to get at the bait. But
suddenly he notices the obstacle in the
way and pushes it aside with his nav.
The stone swings out of the way for a
second. then it swings back and hits
the bear on the paw. With growl Of
irritation the bear pushes it aside more
violently. The stone swings away
again: then it returns with greater
force and hits the bear on the chest.
With a snarl of rage the bear gives
the stone tremendous thrust and
sends it up into the air in a wide
curve. Then down comes the stone in
similar curve and hits the bear a
humping whack on the ribs.
Most animals would desist after that
third blow; not so the bear. He is now
in perfectly mad rage, and a bear is a
good boxer. He hits out with his paws
right and left and sends the stone
hurting forward in still wider curve
Then after few seconds the stone
comes back and hits the bear a terrific
'uppercut' on the jaw.
1.-The bear is reused to white hot
fury. He thinks an enemy is hiding
behind the stone-as an enemy might
do in the jungle-and he is determined
ITO reach that enemy.
But. alas. the bear never went to
school and learned the law of gravity!
Every blow he hits the stone ia re
turned tenfold. And as the stone has
no brains to be knocked out it is the
bear that gets knocked out at last He
will never, never give in until he is
knocked out-of the tree.
Then the willy natives hiding below
rush in with a net and throw it quick
~ over him.
"And that is how many menageries
and ZOOS get their Himalayan bear

A KINGS Ransom.

The expression worth a kings ran
son. though generally supposed to
mean the ransoms paid for a king.
more probably refers to that paid to a
king. In early times. when armies re-
ceived practically no regular pay and
the soldiers reward was the booty TAX
en- from the vanquished, each soldier
had,a right to the bodies as well as the
goods of the prisoners he captured
The conqueror might STAY his prisoner
sell him to slavery or set him at liberty
on payment of ransom. But, though
1t was the common practice in feudal
times for the individual captor TO re-
ceive the ransom for prisoners of low
degree, those for princes or great no
bles were always paid to the king.
hence a kings ransom.

M0RPHY, THE CHESS WIZARD
Marvellous Skill of the Greatest Master
OF Modern Times.


Paul Charles Morphy, the famous
American chess player, is chased as
perhaps the most remarkable chess
player Of modern times" He was
born In New Orleans in 1887 and was
notably precocious as a child. He
showed this precOcity particularly in
games of chess, and before he was
thirteen had defeated many well
known amateurs. For several years
he studied law at the College of South
Carolina and played chess only occa-
sionally. But in 1857, at the first
American chess congress. held in New
York, he easily defeated the best play
ers that could be brought against him.
In 1853 Morphy went to England
and there defeated Lowenthal. B0den
and Bird and performed the most as
topishing feats in simultaneous games
without the board. When he was in
Paris, the same year, he won FIVE out
of eight games with Harrwitz and
gave many exhibitions of blindfold
playing. It was these last that were
responsible for the early breakdown
Of his health.
After his return to the United States
in 1859 he defeated the visiting Ger
man expert. ANDERSEN, in seven out of
eleven games. He was admitted to
the bar and began to practice law in
New Orleans. But the strain of his
blindfold contests had been too great
for his mind, and he was forced TO
give up chess altogether and then to
abandon all mental occupation. He
lived in retirement until his death in
1894. His activity thus covered a com
paratively short space of time.
Morphy's skill is described as mex
plicable. He never was a close stud
ent of chess. He played his games
easily and quickly, with no prepare
ton and little hesitation. Yet his com
binations were remarkable for finesse
depth, elegance and soundness." He
| also possessed a phenomenal memory
