SHEEP KILLED Their ENEMY
Ordinarily Timid Animals Worked in
Concert to Stamp Life Out OF
Big Rastiesi1ake.

One summer morning farmer In
Virgin started out TO salt d Smai;
flock OF sheep HAT he had recently
put intoGl billy, oversrown field some
distance from his il0ine. At the pasture
he called for some time, but seeing
or hearing nothing of the sheep he
walked down toward the middle of the
enclosure and mounted tall stump
at the edge of the brier patch. From
this point of vantage, he could see the
flock on a piece of level ground scarce
ly so yards below him.
The sheep were crowded into a sway
ing excited circle some 20 feet in d.
ameter.
Presently, While the sheep were
standing still, d. big wether made a
spring, landed with his feet in the very
center of the ring and bounced away
like rubber ball. In flash another
followed his lead, and another, until
all had leaped on the same spot. Then
away they swept down the hill.
Stepping down from his perch, the
farmer made his way to the scene of
this strange performance. BY the side
of the trampled brier clump lay the
mangled remains OF a big rattlesnake.

Returning recently from the island
Of Jamaica, in the West Indies, where
he spent four months on a scientific
expedition, H.. E. Anthony, associate
curator of mammals at the Museum
of Natural History, brought back with
him many fine specimens of bats,
which are numerous on that and other
islands in the West Indies, says the
New York Times.
"The only mammals native to the
island today" Mr.. Anthony said, "are
20 species of bats and one species of
rodent. These different bats range in
fsiZe from small bats, with wing
spread of six inches. up to very lar::,e

People in the United States, where
bats are comparatively rare animals,

value of the bat. They are either in

LONG PUZZLE re SCIENTISTS
Strange Work Left by Mound Builders
Never Has Had Anything Like
Satisfactory Explanation.

The Serpent Efiigy mound, near
Chillicothe, Ohio, the strangest earth
work left by the Mound Builders, is
one of the most striking and pulling
creations that is to be found In the
Scioto River valley. Over all, the
mound is more than 1900 feet long,
and depicts a serpent of several COLI
volutions, jaws extended, and an oval
within the grasp of the huge jaws. The
groundwork is from two TO four feet
in height, and from three or four to
~ feet in thickness. Within the oval,
beyond the extended jaws, archeolo-
gists have found an altar of stones and.
copper ornaments.
An old indian fighter who died in.
the West several years ago, nearly
100 years old, declared he had heard
a story in his younger days of tribe
of strange Indians in the Scioto val
ley who each year held a fall festival
and gave great powwow on a snakes
back. He said he never could under
stani the meaning of the story until
later in life when he heard Of the
Mound Builders. His recollection of
the story, had it been given to stu
dents of the mounds, might have served
to give them new theories on which
to base their research work. He said
the strange race We're supposed to sac
rifice certain number of children
born under the first full moon of
spring For this the Mound Builders
might lave used the stone altar which
has been found.

BarbIess Hooks for Anglers.

A very commendable movement Is
under way among members of the
Megantic club, and probably other
sporting clubs, for the use of the barb.
less hook. The idea is that true
craftsmanship consists in giving the
members of the "finny tribe" fair
chance for life and escape, and that
to catch fish with barbless hook
is more creditab!e than to use the
o'd-fashioned barb. When trout or
salmon are caught with a barbed
hook, they are apt to be seriously in
iured, and even IL thrown back into
the water do not recover, in many
cases; whereas, if the barbless hook
is used, as now advocated, they are,
if returned to the water, in almost all
instances revived and may be caught
over and over again. This is. true
craftsmanship, and it is to be- hoped
that the barbless hook movement Will
succeed.-Boston Post.

among its members, he succeeded in
reconciling to his administration the
most divergent elements In his de-
sire for harmony, he would also have
included Henry Clay and Andrew
Jackson, but they declined.
One day the Britishsminister glared
across the White House dinner table

care you biting your nails at me,
sir?" The Frenchman responded
BIZ drawing his sword, and the two
diplomats rushed at, each other. But
as they We're aboutSto clash, the pres
ident drew his own sword between
them and stopped the fight.
That little incident gives us a pic
ture Of the spirit Of Monroe and his,
administration. While he was in the
White House, men and factions had
to leave their quarrels at the door.
The quiet, modest president was not
so successful in keeping the peace
among the women of the official cir
Gle, and their disputes over social rank
and precedence brewed many squalls
Although Jim Monroe, as he was
familiarly called, was the last presi-'
dent to cling 10 the ancient knee
breeches, cockade and sword, ne was
as plain and easy as an old shoe.
When a newly arrived European
dinlonlat saw a bald-headed, watery-
eyed man in 4 striped seersucker
coaf, dirty waisteoat spotted with
ink and with slippers down at the
heel writing at a White House desk,
he wondered that the president
would have such a sloyenly clerk I'M
til he was dumfcunded to find that
be was in the presence of the president
himself.
Ii the six years that remained to
Monroe after retiring from the presi-
,dency, he set himself, as an ex-presi-
dent, a high standard of conduct.
Having received the supreme honor
at the hands of al the people, he felt
that his name belonged to them and
lie refused to lend it to any candidate
or any party.
Feeble and alone after the death
OF his wife, Monroe sold Oak Eli,
his Virginia farm, in the closing
months CT his life. With the feeling
of TN exile, the last Of The yirginiang
left his native state to live with 4 sol.-
in-law in Kew York city, where ne
died on July z,z7;Gai.
