TIL "FLYING MINE"

(WiQe world Magazine 2.
A farmer living near Boree Creek.
New South Wales, was greatly an
noyed by the depredations OF a hawk.
which almost daily took toll among
his chickens. Finally, after a good
deal of trouble, he succeeded in trap
ping the bird alive, and, smarting
under his losses, resolved upon "a
really elaborate revenge. Procuring
a supply of Cell (explosive) he
fastened it to the unfortunate hawks
leg and attached a long fuse to it.
Then, having lit the fuse, the trick
failed to work. Somewhat dazed, no
doubt, by the rough handling it had
received, the. hawk obstinately re-
fused to move from a position near
the dnor Of the "humpy.''
With the fuse splutterinx f1ercely,
the farmer began to get Uneasy and
he did all in his power to scare this
"feathered mine" away, but at first
with little success. Finally it rose in
the, air-but only to settle on his
roof, near the chimney! Shouting
and bombardment with stones and
sticks alike failed t. move it from
this position, and with the perspira-
ton streaming down his face and his
hair beginning to stand on end. the
farmer was ultimately obliged to take
to his heels and flee for his own
safety. The bird sat doggedly on the
roof till the n came; then the
luckless squatter. looking back, saw
roof, chimney and hawk go up in one
terrific explosion. He has now sworn
off all fancy methods of pest destruc-
ton.

CONDITIONS ARE NOT GOOD.

Toxic, Dec. 3.--tMail.)-That a
chief cause for the recent reverses OF
the Siberian army was to be found in
its unsanitary conditions was the
opinion expressed recently by Colonel
r. B. Teuslcr. American Red Cross
commissioner to Siberia.
DR.. !Teusler was speaking In the
Russian embassy at q meeting OF
foreign residents who voted on the
spot to form the "Tokio International
Association for Relief In Siberia"
Fifteen hundred dollars were immedt-
ately subscribed as q nucleus for the
relief fund.
Colonel Teusler, describing condi.
tons, said that bad sanitation, both II,
the army and among the population,
with the agonies OF starvation,
brought about extreme misery and =
moral breakdown which was especial.
~ reflected in the troops who. felt that
they had no support behind them.
The minds Of the population ssenaed
TO have become almost benumbed and
absolutely. Indifferent TO what hap
pened or to the suffering in others.
Colonel Teusler added that although
such numbers Of the people were
starving there was suf1cient food, bht
lack Of transportation facilities pre-
vented ~ distribution where most
needed.

CRITICIZE EDUCATION BILL.

Dublin, Dec. 17.-(Mail. 1.-THE gov
ernment's Irish education bill is criti-
cized here on the ground that the
irish educational system should. be
framed by an Irish parliament. = (
The home rule bill was expected to
grant, separate treatment for Ulster,
but the education bill Is framed on the
assumption that Ireland is a single
unit. The education bill sets up only
one central authority in Dublin d.
rectly responsible to the imperial par
lament.
1T introduces for the first time into
the educational system of Ireland a
local school tax. Hitherto all the
money has been found by the treas
ury, supplemented by voluntary sub
scriptions. There will be popular
representation on the school board
but itsfunction is to be advisory only,
and the power is all to rest with the
new education department. This will
consist of the chief secretary and the
vice president of the department of
technical education, both. Of whom
come into and 80 out Of office with
the British ministry Of the day, and of
q permanent member who will be the
real administrator Of the new system.
Religious controversy. is avoided by
the provision in the bill continuing
the existing plan by which the school
managers. mostly the clergy OF the
various denominations, appoint the
teachers and control tho schools,

IRISH ri

Dublin, Dec. 17.-(Mail. )-Eamonn-
De .Valera's speeches in America with
regard to the part played by Irish
soldiers in the war have been read in
Ireland with some surprise, and 1t Is
pointed out here that in this matter
Mr.. De. Valera's sentiments differ a,
good deal from those Of his support
ers. Captain MWalter, a Dublin ply
sician and member Of the Dublin
municipal council, who served
throughout the war in the army medi-
cal, corps, writes as follows in the
Dublin Press: s
"All the ~ex-service men, and there
are v 10000 of us, were pleased
to find Mr.. De Valera assuring his
American audience that we fought for
a principle and that Irlshmen in the
earlier days of the war rushed to the
ranks in overwhelming numbers. But

terprets u position to the Americans

Irish soldiers and to heavy every In
dignity possible upon them.
Returned soldiers are treated az
lepers rather than IS heroes. Men
who had not the manliness to fight
either in the army or In the rebellion
now find courage to- persecute by
every means in their power those
army or ex-army men whom De
Valera lauds, and even carry their
vandictiveness against every mar who
helps them" 6
