WROTE OF LIFE At HARVARD
Author Now Forgotten Conceded TO
Have Been the First TO Depict
Undergraduate Days.

Harvard graduates, the world over,
have long believed that the earliest
pictorial record Of undergraduate life
at the oldest college In the United
States was made when #. g. Atwood
drew his pictures of college life for
the first volume Of the Harvard Lam
poOn. The Lampoon was the fore
runner Of humorous journalism to
America; Atwood became q famous
humorist; and his Manners & Gus
toms of We Harvard Studente" was es-
tablished as q classic. The discovery
OF a time-stained book In a New Eng
land farmhouse reveals an earlier
craftsman, whose college Scenes"
antedate "Ye Harvard Studente' by
about a quarter of a century. but were
soon generally forgotten. OF N. Hay
ward, the artist, no record remains
but the bare fact that he was then In
college. The discoverer, however. had
a rare afternoon when he found the
volume In a dusty chest, where 1t had
been packed away with a lot Of con-
temporary textbooks and an old Har-
ward diploma.-Christian Science Mon
itor.

CATTLE SHIPMENTS
RANCHER PREPARING TO SEND
2OO,OOO HEAD TO EASTERN
MARKETS.

Rapid City. July 9.-The tabled
cattle barons of the western novel of
a few years ago had nothing on Ed
l.. Dana. who operates in Sheridan
county n of the largest ranches In
the west. Dana is preparing his first
shipment of summer beef to the east
ern markets and II will take 500
standard size cattle cars to carry the
consignment. which will be COM
posed of some 10000 range fed stock.
Twenty engines will be needed to
draw this shipment, which If placed
in n single train would make a
line of freight cars more than four
miles long.
Figuring cattle at the present price
OF Is cents a pound on the hoof,
Dana's first shipment of 10000
should bring him a check of between
$4,000, 600 and $4,000, coo. And
there are other consignments coming.

WITH THEIR HEADS
cirafes Have Distinctly Peculiar
Method Of Settling Differences That
Arise Among Themselves.

While the giraffe can hardly be
classed among the fierce duelists Of
the animal world. yet animals Of this
species are known to have their com
bats like their more ~ferocious fellows.
The long-necked beast has an original
and curious method Of fighting. 1t has
neither claws nor beak nor sharp teeth
with which to defend or attack, 20
when 1t Is out of temper with q Of
Its kind 1t does not ny In the face Of
Providence by trying to disembowel its
adversary, AZ q rhin0ceros might, or
tear 1t, as a tiger would. On the con-
trary. the giraffe. knowing that 1t has
been provided by nature with 4 long
and pliable neck, terminating In q very
solid head, uses the upper part of
itself like a fail, and, swinging Its
neck around and around In a way that
does immense credit to its organize
ton. brings its head down at each
swing with q thunp on its antagonist.
The other combatant uses precisely
the same tactics, and the two animals.
planting themselves AZ firmly as pos
sible by stretching out on all four legs
to the utmost, stand opposite to each
other hammering away with their
heads until one or the other has had
enough.
The head Of the giraffe Is furnished
with two stumpy. hornlike processes.
so that the animals when at this ham,
mer-and-tongs mode Of warfare, re-
mind the spectator somewhat Of two
ancient warriors humping each other
with the spiked balls they used to
carry for that purpose at the end OF
a chain.-New York Herald.
