Alligator Is Useful
As Pest Destroye

Killing alligators has been from
time immemorial a popular pastime
In Louisiana it was found that when
the aligators were killed off the
muskrat multiplied and destroyed
levees; also the cottonmouth moe
casin. the gartish and the carp in
creased wonderfully Whereupon
protection was given to alligators.
This lacertilian, to give him his
correct family name, has probably
kept the musllrat away from the
South Carolina coast. for the musk
rat is unknown on the coast.
If allowed to multiply the alliga-
tor will make inroads on the carp.
the garfish and the cottonmouth. all
I'm -esirable members of our fauna,
The sum total of the alligator's evil
doing amounts to this:
He catches a dog now and then;
once in a long while pulls a hog or
bites the tail off a COW, for sundry
stump-tailed cows along the Allan
tic Coast Line right of way have
met misfortune in this way.
The COW, the dog and the hog are
out of place when the alligator can
get at them; but at best very little
of this happens.-Charleston News

Chinese Cemetery
OF Pigeon Holes

A good Chinaman insists on being
buried in China. He may live in the
United States. but when he is about
to die he makes it clearly under
stood that his remains are to be
transported to the Far East for final
burial.
To transport each body separate
ly would be prohibitive in cost for
the average Chinaman's estate
Hence established procedure is to
accumulate a large number of bodies
until they make UP shipment and
can be transported at minimum ex-
pense
From the time the Chinaman dies
until the shipload is being made up,
his body is kept in a separate COM
partment of a stone structure which
serves as a cemetery. After placing
the body in its compartment or
pigeon-hole, it is sealed in with a
thin cement wall.
Each compartment is numbered,
and a suitable epitaph is written on
the cement wall to flowery Chinese
haracters.-Detroit News.

Old Burglar Alarm,
Guards Tibet Tombs by
Sharp-Pointed Arrows

In Tibet the Tartars have what is
possibly the oldest burglar alarm IN
the world 1t was invented as pre-
caution against the robbing of ton1bs
When a royal parsonage died in
Tibet he was buried with all his
Jewels and precious robes. To add
a still higher tribute, the most beau
tiful young woman of his court was
suffocated and embalmed upon the
day of the funeral. .-,
This conserved their beauty, and
they were placed in standing po-
sition around the tomb of their
master, each holding stwle trlnket
used by the royal parsonage during
his lifetime.
To protect these treasures from
vandals the Tibetans erected an
arch of sharply pointed arrows, and
whoever passed under this trod on
a releaSe, which discharged arrows in
quick succession.
This invention, hidden around the
temples and tombs Of the rich Tar
tars, was doubly efficient, as 1t pro-
tected property as we'll as executed

Fnemen Stare When
Hose Spouts Flame

BOSTON. - The phenomenon of
flame bursting from a fire hose,
through which water was passing
when there was no fire nearby, has
mystif1ed the Boston fire department.
Nothing like it ever occurred before,
according to Fire Commissioner
John R. Murphy. who said it was
''the most Interesting thing that has
happened in the fire business in a
long time"
The fire developed during a test
of big motor pumping engines. 1t
burned holes through the hose in
two places, each near the engine
connection, flame breaking through
on the outside. First opinion of eX-
perts was that free sulphur" had
been left between layers of the
hose as a residue of vulcanization,
but analysis showed a minus quaint
ity as compared with specification
