lLONG-HAIRED AND BE-SABREzD GHURKA
 PRIEST IS SHORN

Vancouver, B. C., July 2.-Narin Singh is disgraced. No longer can he be a Ghurka priest.
 For his sword has been taken away, and with it all his respecta- bDity and power.
 Ushered into court on charge of carrying concealed weapons, Marin disclosed sword about A inches long with a razor edge blade, shaped like a sabre. The court demanded that he turn over the weapon.
 Marin resisted
 He groveled in the courtroom dust he would be disgraced for ever, and could no longer be a Ghurka priest; should his bones or ashes ever reach the GangeS river they would turn its color to blood red, he argued. But in vain.
 The court now possesses the sword.
 Narim Singh, who is a very reli- g1ous Tindu, explained that he was priest of a certain temple that re- quired it's priests to wear long hair and carry a. sword

USE CROWBAR ON
 MAN-EAT9NG MULE

Long Creek, Ore, July 2-Clarence Porter, young son of Allen Porter, had to be pried loose from a man. eating mule with a crowbar. when the recalcitrant animal sunk it's teeth in his leg and refused to let go. Clubs, stones and knives had no more effect on the mule than Sis cuSs words on the famous Maud, and the iron crowbar had to be inserted be- tween the jaws and the mouth forced open before the boy could be releas- ed.
 Young Porter was seriously injur- ed, the flesh on his leg being torn away from the bone.
 The animal was to be branded, and Porter was holding it's head while another man tied it's feet In trying to control the mule. Porter struck 1t with 9 spur, but the animal snapped onto the spur, drew the lad closer and seized his leg in a stubborn grip.

CContinued from Page one)


 strange barge load of animals was un1oaded at the Stratford avenue docks early last March, and a great portion of the population will be on hand today to see those wonderful lions, tigers, bears, came1s and stall lions, they have heard so much about and which caused so much favorable comment during the annual engage ment of the super-circus at Madison Square Garden, New York City.
 Bridgeport is nome" to great many of the executives of the circus, a number of whom arrived home last evening. Charles Hutchinson and Buddy Hutchinson, came down from New Haven. MT. Hutchinson has for many years been treasurer with the Greatest Show on Earth, and there is probably no man in the world today that has a better or more complete knowledge of the circus business from every angle John Patterson, superintendent of the menagerie also came home yesterday, as did Joseph Boyton, and a number of others.
 There is still disappointment ex- pressed because there was no parade, but the public can be assured that the front doors to the big tent will be open on time, and the performance start as per schedule. And when it does once start things will happen so thick and fast that a real circus fan will have to go twice to see it all.
 The Fairfield avenue lot is level, and hard, and devoid of ho1lows and holes, and preparations have been made to handle enormous crowds at both performances. The trolley company will cooperate and many special cars will be provided to give prompt service without waits to and from the place of exhibition of the Barnum & Bailey, Greatest Show on Earth, combined with RingIing Brothers, Worlds Greatest Shows.

London, June 30-Extraordinary are the new precautions being taken by the authorities to keep the secret of the new F"helicopter''-the hush hush' aircraft designed by MT. Louis Brennan, the mono-raiI inventor.
 The machine is now undergoing tests at Peterborough Airdrome. This remarkable invention, which has long been visualized but never previously achieved by aero engineers, possesses two great advantages over the ordi- nary airplane. It has a direct lift and can sore straight up from any con- fined space. It can hover n1otionless in the air like a hawk.
 An important problem in course of soluting is to prevent the machine from falling into a stone if the engine stops. Principles of gyroscopic con-

Il once knew an engineer who was
travelling In Nevada. He had good

he put up at very primitive hotel
ia the wilds. The landlord OF this
hotel looked like q brlgsnd. and the
engineer could hardly sleep for fear.
'Nothing. however. happened, and

lleyed heart. The mountain trail was
lonely one. and on toward noon. In
Wild and desoiate spot, three des-
peradoes fell on him. emptied his va

the landlord was az the bottom Of this
hoIdup. Accordingly he turned back
TO notify the authorities. But he had
ouiy gone a mile or 80 when h. met
