VANISHED WITH THE BUFFALO
Few Left Of the Pronghorn Antelope,
That Once Roamed the Plains In
Vast Numbers.

Next to the buffalo, the most Hu-
merous animal in the United States
not more than so years ago was the
pronghorn antelope. About half the
size of deer, but bit more COM
pactly built, 1t ranged the plains from
the Missouri river westward to the
Pacific in places.
Antelopes were dry-country animals,
and were always found wherever
sagebrush, bunch grass and the short,
curly buffalo grass existed. Their fa-
vorite range was the plains country
just east Of the Rocky mountains,
where they migrated with the seasons,
from Alberta to Mexico, and between
the Rocky and the west coast ranges
from the Big Bend Of the Columbia In
Washington, southwark to the Gulf
Of California and the Mexican west
coast. 1t was the best runner of all
the plains animals. and had endurance
for long-distance running, being well
able to take care of itself when in dan
ger. Its meat Is not very attractive to
the white mans palate, being stringy,
tough and dry, and having somewhat
the taste of goat meat. Some are still
found, but only in widely scattered
areas.

IMMENSE HAY CROP.
Over 5000 Tons Shipped From

Mason City, Ia.-During the past

from 50 to SO advance over the To-
cal market, making a profit to the
growers over that which might have
been obtained through ordinary
market channels of from $1,000 to

water FED FIRE
Case Where Liquid Was Of No
Use to Quench Flames.
Metallic Sodium In Vessels Hold
Merely 6lazed More FierceIy az
Streams From Fire Hose
Reached Il.

1t is said that, for the most part,
water If applied in sufficient quantities
will eventually quench any fire. In
some cases, however, water not only
proves Intellectual but actually ,kindles
and nourlshes the fire.
When freighter, the Hardy,
steamed out Of lie Treport, France,
some years ago she carried, besides
the mineral water in her hold, num-
Der of small wooden cases marked
metallic sodium"
Now, the channel was rough. The
vessel rolled and pitched violently.
The captain saw that the ship was list
ing to port, and suspecting that the
cargo was shifting, sent boatswain
below to investigate. As the boat
swain entered the hold he saw that
several cases of mineral water had
broken and that the water was swish
he saw one of the wooden cases
marked sodium" burst into flame.
Immediately he gave the alarm, and
the crew rushed to their fire stations.
The captain directed the men to turn
the hose into the hold. AS the first
stream of water struck the burning
case there were several explosions as
package after package within the case
caught fire. BY this time two other
cases Of sodium had broken open. and
their contents, as they came in con-
tact with the water from the hose,
burst into flame.
The crew could not believe their
eyes. The more water they poured on
the fire. the more intense grew the
conflagration. Then suddenly two
cases flew into the air, crashed against
the overhead beams and spread out in
sheets of fire, the smaller pieces drop
ping back only to bounce and dance
about, huge balls of flame In the half
swamped hold.
The superstitious crew was fast be-
coming unmanageable, and the captain
saw that I'm any case he must abandon
the ship. He ordered the crew to the
boats not a moment too soon, for as
the boats rowed away from the blazing
hulk several loud explosions came from
the hold. Then there was one mighty
defamation; the frelghter broke in two
and plunged out of sight.

FEW REALLY UGLY PEOPLE
Many There Are Who May Be Unat-
tractive, but Not a Lot Defin-
itely Unlocking.

Looking for beauty in the faces and
forms passed on the street Is such
fixed habit with people in general that
II was bit startling to hear Of man
in London who was looking for some
one ugly-the ugliest female, in fact,
that he could find. This man was an
American theatrical man and he de-
sired the ugliest woman to contrast
her in a production with q girl said
to be beautiful.
The Snowman found his ugliest
woman after looking over eight con-
testants. The prize winning "clock-
stopper was thirty-two years old and
a music teacher. She entered the con-
test because her mother told her
"there would be no harm In trying"
On winning she at once insisted on
taking a stage name as she "did not
want all the neighbors to know about
It," The runner-up in the contest,
whose name was not given out, had
an unfortunate nose and an "out-
size" In mouths.
The contest really was of concern
to the theatrical producer, but 1t
served to impress upon Londoners in
general the old truth that few people,
after all, are really ugly, that every
individual looks good to some one.
Two people, who came upon the ad-
vertisement of the ugly contest, began
to amuse themselves In the genial way
of human nature by examining their
friends and acquaintances to discover
which of them had the best claim to
the job.
To their disappointment, says
writer in the London Telegraph, they
could not think of anybody, not even
their pet abomination, who was, con-
sidered impartIally. very ugly. Plain
peOple-oh, yes, hosts Of them; dis
agreeable-looking people-quite lot;
sllly-looking people-any amount; but
people definitely and conspicuously
ugly--not one.

U. s. OFFICIALS PROBE CAFE
PRICES In IOWA.
Fair Price Agents Make Thorough
Investigation of Food Prices.

Cafe and restaurant prices through
out Iowa are undergoing a thorough
investigation by agents of the fair
price commissioners bureau, who
are making extensive study of high
costs in state, according to H. G..
Larimer, Iowa fair price commission
er.
Mr.. Larimer, left Tuesday for q
ten-day tour of the principal cities
in Iowa in the interest Of the bureau
which he heads.
Mr.. Larimer will be accompanied
by corps Of investigators and will
supervise an inquiry into prices Of
foodstuffs and other commodities.
He hopes by personal tour of the
state to correlate the work being
done by his committeeman through
out Iowa.
Wholesale and retail food prices
are also being investigated as n
basis for a checkup on the legiti
macy of any restaurant prices which
may be questioned.
When the investigation is con-
cluded the agents will report to the
fair price commissioner, who will
prepare a report on the prices of
food in Iowa, comparing the variat-
ion in prices in different sections of
the state. The report will give him a
basis for working out improvements
in the distributing and producing of
food which may lead to price re-
auctions, he hopes.
