SPENDS NIGHT IN WELL
Missouri Hunter Meets With Strange
Accident, But Finally
Escapes.

Wheaton, Mo.-Plunging into well
20 feet in depth, and remaining there
for many hours, was the experience of
John Switzer while hunting foxes near
Powell, six miles south of this place.
Switzer and several others of CRANKY
came over for an all-night fox chase.
Switzer selected an abandoned field
near an old hut to wait for the chase.
About midnight he heard the dogs COM
ing his way, and as he started to meet
them he stepped into the old well.
Fortunately the we'll was dry. but
Switzer was badly bruised and dazed.
He spent the night in vain attempt
to climb the sides of his prison.
AS morning dawned, Switzer deter
mined to make his last effort to free
himself. Catching with both hands on
the sides of the well, he climbed a few
inches at time. He worked cautious
ly, as his strength rapidly became
weaker. Finally Switzer reached the
top and by grabbing a small bush he
pulled himself from the hole of torture.
He was found in a dazed condition by
his companions.

Some Aviator Expected to Emu

STILL new TO MANY LANDS
National Geographic Society Says
There Are Many Places Where
Airplane, Automobile and Even
Horse Would Be Curiosity.

Washington.-"Now that the At.
luhtic has been crossed and there are
plans afoot to fly over the Pacific, the
day may not be far distant when some
aerial Magellan will make an air
plane tour around the world" says q
bulletin of the National Geographic
| society.
There are still many corners Of the
world where airplane, automobile and
even the horse would be curiosities
And II a man set out to tour the
globe and do as the Romans do In re.
spect to adopting native conveyances
he would have to:
"Resort to donkey In Spanish
America and in the Holy Land.
Climb aboard camel to traverse
African deserts.
Gross some rivers of India on the
inflated skins of bullocks, and others
by bridge of one rawhide rope.
Using Elephant as Taxi.
Submit to the sea-going motion OF
an elephant when he continued his
journey on lana.
"Get into a man-borne palanquin al
Calcutta.
"Jolt over far Eastern roads in q
non-shock absorbing cart drawn by
oxen.
"And in China he prepared to climb
into jinrikisha. sedan chair or q
wheelbarrow."
A few of these curious means of
travel are described In a communica-
ton to the society by o. P. Austin, as
follows:
SIN all parts of that great line of
deserts, stretching from North Africa
across Central Asia to Northwest
China, the camel is everywhere In

Not only is the camel valuable
freight carrier but he serves as the
travelling car of the Rockefellers, the
Carnegies, the Morgans and the Har-
rimans Of the desert When he is
chosen for this more pretentious serv-
Ice a light framework is placed upon

Craft on the Euphrates.
"On the Euphrates and the Tigris
are still retained the curious water
transports Of centuries ago-the raft
of skins and the circular boats.
These RATS are sustained by inflated
skins, prepared for this especial pur-
pose, and after the raft floats down
the river to its destination the inflated
skins are removed, the air permitted
to escape, and the skins carefully
| folded and carried back to the upper
waters, where they are again inflated
and used as the support of another
and still another raft.
Even more curious TO the eyes Of
the traveller from other parts of the
world are the circular boats, made of
| wickerwork and covered with skins,

or made watertight with pitch, which
are still in daily use on the Tigris
and Euphrates rivers.
1.-THE three principal methods of
transportation of people in central
and southern China are the sedan
chair, the jinrikisha and the wheel
barrow.
Probably more freight and more
passengers are transported In China
by the wheelbarrow than by any other
land method. The wheelbarrow there
used differs from that used by us in
the fact that the wheel is set in the
center and thus supports practically
the entire load, while the handles are
supported in part by strap or rope
over the shoulders of the man who
operates 1t. As result. the wheel
barrow coofie in China will transport
nearly half ton on his vehicle"

Concrete "PItesn

The piles used for q wharf inside
the new pier at Burnie, Tasmania, are
concrete tubes or pipes 10 feet long
and AZ feet in diameter, the wall be-
ing one foot thick. The pipes are
produced in steel cylinder. which ls
placed on four wheels. and rotated by
an electric motor at the rate of $50
to 300 revolutions per minute AS the
concrete mixture is thrown in, the
centrifugal force throws ont the wa
ter, each length Of pipe being COM
pleted in about fifteen minutes. To
get the required height, these sections
are placed one upon another, with ce-
ment between, and an eight-inch steel
band is placed over the joint The
hollow center is filed with sand.
