LEGS BITTEN OFF BY A
SHARK WHILE SWIMMING;

Spring Lake, N. j., July Sat
tackled by a shark while swimming
in the surf here this afternoon,
Charles Bruder, 2S years old, bell
hop in a local hotel, lost his legs
when they were bitten off. He died
within 10 minutes after life guards
brought him ashore. The attack
happened during the afternoon bath
ing hour, when hundreds were in
the water.
Because of the low tide Bruder,
who was a strong swimmer, was
about 100 feet beyond the outer life
line. Guards White and Anderson
We're watching him because of the
distance that he was from the beach,
when he suddenly yelled for help.
The guards launched their boat, and
just as they reached Bruder's side
he said: "A shark bit me-" and be-
came unconscious.
His left leg had been cut off clean
above the knee, and the right leg
just below the knee. The shark had
bitten Bruder in one side before TAX
ing his legs off, as there were teeth
marks below the left arm.

QUICKsAND DRAWS TWO
TO A HORRIBLE DEATH

Savannah, Ca, July S.-R. II,
Barrow and his daughter Jennie
Sue, 10 years old, were caught in
quicksand and drowned in Pearsons
Pond, near Spartanburg, s. c., while
Mrs. Barrow and her three little
sons stood near the edge of the wa
ter. unable to render any assistance.
The accident took place in small
body of water. near which the mem
bers of the Barrow family were
spending the afternoon.
The girl went into the pond to
wade, and was caught in the quick
sand, which gripped her feet and
slowly drew her down. The father
went to the assistance of the girl,
and as he approached her he, too,
became a victim of the sands. The
child quickly disappeared, but in
her struggles she seized her father
about the neck, pulling him under
the water with her.
The mans head, however, reap
peared above the water, and he
struggled enegertically for release,
but, imbedded in the sands above his
knees, he was unable to extricate
himself. and was drowned standing
up. with the top of his head show
ing above the surface of the pond.

Rather than retire without carrying
out his orders not to return unless
he was able to report success, Gen.
Ramos, when he found himself sur
rounded by superior force, fought
until killed. The survivors OF the
command retreated at night fall.
Orders have gone to strong forces to

FAILURE IN THE FINAL Tests
Is Holding Companies Back
New Recruiting Will Prob.
ably Be Slow.
leo MEN IN . COMPANIES FAIL

Fort Thomas, KY, July S.-All
talk of an early departure for the
border for the Kentucky troops was
silenced when the latest results from
the Federal examinations showed
even deeper inroads into the
strength of the companies than had
already been made.
The revised list of the reflections
of Company E., First Regiment, of
Louisville, included more than sixty
men; that for Company d, more
than fifty men, and the complete list
for the field hospital corps showed a
loss of seventeen.
The loss of more than 100 men in
two Louisville companies, following
close upon the heels of the disaster
of Company A, early in the week.
and with a prospect for even larger
reflections in some of the companies
yet to follow, cast deep gloom over
the entire camp.
The rejected men will begin leav-
ing for their homes in Louisville to-
morrow.
The first estimate of Che rejec-
lions in Companies H and B, of
Louisville, which were examined to-
day gave the former as 22 and the
e latter as 80.
This included only those who were
rejected outright during the exami-
nation, considerable number of
men in both units being held for
further consideration. Experience
has shown that the original estimat-
ed reflections is invariably swelled to
measurable degree by the fur
Their consideration so that the re-
suit of the past two or three days
work may be safely estimated at
more than 200 reflections.
Those who hoped a week ago that
the various contingents would be
able to fill the gaps which the ex-
aminations would make in their
units, are now of different mind
The matter of finding fifty and sixty
recruits to the company, it was ad-
mitted, presents its difficulties. The
best opinion in camp was to the eff
feet that the Kentucky boys would
not be in shape to start for the Dor
der under a month. Coupled with
this, the possibility was pointed out
Vat in that time the dispute be-
tween the two governments stands a
fair chance of being on the way to
settlement and the presence of more
gxardsmen on the border will not
b1 needed.
1t was pointed out also. that inoc-
ulations and vaccinations would
prove a cause of considerable delay
in getting the troops ready for
movement. The Government is
ayerse to moving them until they
have received their incubation for
typhoid, and this can not be admin
istered until twenty days after their
first.
Supply men. however. are taking
no chances on being caught unpre-
pared. To-day they were busy get
ting the equipment ready for the
men who have passed through the
major part of the mastering exami-
nation and vaccination processes.

ABLE TO FOLLOW ANY TRAIL
Australian Aboriginals Are Conceded
to Be the Finest Trackers
Known to the World.

The Australian aboriginals are the
finest crackers in the world.
On many occasions they perform
feats which are almost beyond belief.
But to them the work is quite habitual.
The boys are taught to track from
birth.
The women are just as expert as the
men. Horse tracks are child's play to
them; they can track horse at full
gallop. They can track anything
possums, snakes, iguanas; even beetles
leave sufficient trail for them to work
on.
The standard of honor among these
tribes is high. When one of them
breaks their strict code, fearing the
wrath of the tribe, he bolts, and,
knowing he will be pursued, uses all
his knowledge in an effort to elude
those in search of him; BIZ it is ques-
tionable if there is a single case on
record where he escaped.
What might be called classes in
tracking are held for the youngsters
The tutor will get them in body, and
then disappear into the bush and do
everything he can do to make them
lose his tracks. He will tiptoe along
fallen logs, swim quarter Of a mile
along a stream, double on his tracks.
and so on.
Finally he returns to the boys, who
then set out to pick up the tracks.
