COMBAT WITH THEIR HEADS
Giraffes 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, vet 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, so
when 1t Is out of temper with one of
Its kind 1t does not fly in the face of
Providence by trying to disembowel its
adversary, as rhinoceros might, or
tear it, as tiger would. On the con-
trary, the giraffe, knowing that it has
been provided by nature with a long
and pliable neck, terminating in q very
solid head, uses the upper part Of
itself like q fail, and, swinging its
neck around and around in a way that
does immense credit to its organiZa-
ton, brings its head down at each
swing with thump on It's antagonist.
The other cOmbatant uses precisely
the same tactics, and the two animals,
planting themselves as firmly as pos
Stble 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.

ADDS TO WEALTH OF ITALY
New Variety of Wheat, Known as
strampeIIl, Has Proved Really
Wonderful Success.

A new wheat, specially adapted to
the conditions prevailing in the grain
raising districts Of Italy, has Just been
developed by many years of careful
selection by Prof. Nazareno Strampelli,
director of the experiment station
at Rieti, to whom the Academy Of the
Lincei has awarded for 1t the prize of
the Sanford foundation, given only to
those who discover something Of real
and great benefit to the human race.
The new grain has been named Car
lotta Strampelll, after the devoted
wife who helped materially In the
work of selection. Signora Strampelli
Is Roman patrician and a great
granddaughter of Lucien Bonaparte.
NapoleOn's elder brother.
Last year Carlotta Strampelli
wheat was sOwn upon $4,000 acres of
ground and yielded an average of 81
bushels to- the acre-about ten bushels
more than such land had yielded hlth-
erto.
On the plains of Lombardy, Mollse
and Puglle are about 100000 acres
suitable for the new wheat. If the en-
tire product of last year were sown
this year, the wheat crop of Italy
would be increased by quantity
about equivalent to that imported an
nually before the war; in other words,
1t would make ITALY Independent of
the rest of the world for wheat.

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 f. 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 a famous
humorlst; and his Manners & Gus
toms of We Harvard Studente" was es.
tablished as classic. The discovery
OF time-stained book In New Eng

Historic Strasbouru.

In establishing the administration

Its great university has library of

These are the local glories. but a
universal fame has been gained by

ADMITS HE WAS "JUsT LOST"
Joke on Veteran Hack Driver Was
Altogether Too Good a Ono
to Be Kept.

For 10 years George I. King has
driven the Nashville Helmsburg hack
line, and is known as the Abe Martin
driver by every person who has Wis.
tied Nashville. He has met both
morning and afternoon trains at
Helmsburg almost every day, and has
every stone and bad place in the road
definitely in his mind.
Recently, 50 friends of Mr.. King
say, he and a hackful of passengers
were lost within a half mile of Nash
vile, and he was two hours late when
he arrived in town. One of the pas.
sengers- told the story on the driver
after he had found out that Mr. King
was not going to tell why he was late.
When near town he drove across
Owl creek to let one of the passengers
out, and instead Of turning around he
turned the horses only half way, and
then drove into a 40-acre cornfield,
One of the women passengers, hearing
the cornstalks popping, asked Mr..
King when they would get back on
the road. He did not answer, but
kept driving around and around in the
cornfleld. After a few minutes she
asked him where they were. He
replied, "be d-n f know" The pas.
sengers, all strangers, became alarmed
and, after calling for help, a young
farmer appeared and showed the
driver how to get out of the corntield
and on the pike
After the story had become known
Mr.. King said that he had two dash
lanterns on the hack and was just
lost.--lndianapolls News.

OF PAROLE
Youngest Prisoner to Be Given New
Glands, Is Now Being Sought
For by Prison Authori-
ties.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 1S-Con.
sternation entered the camp today Of
those who believe new interstitial
glands remake a man morally as well
as physically.
Ed White, state parole officer,
learned that James Thompson had
violated his parole.
Thompson, while in San Quentin
prison, was operated on by DR.. L. l..
Stanley and DR.. G. David Kelker,
Stanley's assistant, following the
hanging of convict The convict's
reproductive interstitial glands were
transplanted into Thompson's body.
Thompson bears the double dis
tinction of being the youngest man
ever to receive the glands and to be
the only one such on parole. He is
25 years old. Thompson's glands
were injured in an accident years
ago. He became listless fellow,
very dull in appearance, and his men
tality was described by the doctors
as of a low order.
Following the operation, his entire
appearance changed and his attitude
about the prison was SO exemplary
that he won a parole. He had been
sentenced from San Francisco county
in 1918 for five years for attempted
burglary. He was released on parole
June 81, 1919.
Il shall do everything I can to To-
cate Thompson" White told The
United Press today. "He broke his
parole when he left the employment
of the Weed Lumber company at
"Teed, Calf If can find him and it
can be demonstrated that he has done
nothing wrong, | shall not return him
to the prison"
Hereafter" said White, 81 intend
to make special study of those who
have undergone the gland operation
and have been paroled"
