1904 and since that time she has
lived here in Hancock with her daugh

She was member of the Presby-

her she was always the same cheer
full, kindly woman, with a large
charity for all and though her great
age kept her in the home all the
time yet she took great interest in
all the affairs of the day. She is
survived by her daughter, Mrs. Brake
and two sons, Carloss and Henry

A writer in the Kansas City Star

OF the days of the early SOS when he

ately for the poor lady, not the fash
ionable walking hour.
People are apt to lose their heads
completely under these circumstances
the moral effect being at least as
strong as the physical one. A friend
of mine, who lived near Lake Victoria,
once told me how guest of his, who
was sleeping the the same room, near
the window, was attacked by Siafu in
the middle of the night and was
covered with them when he awoke. He
jumped out of bed, tore off his pa
jamas, and started dancing around,
yelling for his boys to come and pick
off the insects. But when they ar
rived running, he instead of standing
still, began boxing their ears, where
upon they, believing that their mas
ter had gone mad, ran out of the
house again, terrorized, leaving him
to shift for himself. My friend, heart
less fellow, told me that he nearly
died with laughter, as everybody else
would have done in his place, 1 sup
pose.
Siafu are worst just before the 1
rainy season, when, in dry, hot
weather, they go in search of water,
and during the rainy season, when
their underground dwellings become
flooded. They do not walk during
heavy downpour; but their appear
ance is generally the presage of rain.
There are several ways of prevent
ing Siafu from entering house in
the daytime, when timely notice of
their approach has been gained. That
most commonly used, and of slowest
effect, is the strewing of ashes in
their path and the beating on the
head of the column with firebrands.
So great is the Status pluck and de-

African Ant Is
Very Plucky
Neither Size of Victim Nor
Death Itself Can Daunt
Its Attack

Siafu is the Swahili name for the
smaller Of the two common. kinds of
warrior ants. The larger of the two,
conspicuous by it's odious smell during
the rainy season, although a sharp
bitter, ii a quantite negligeable COM
narcd with its smaller cousin, whose
ferocity, determination and pluck are
unimaginable. Their bite is very
panful-that of the soldiers, with
their disproportionately large heads
and mandibles, particularly so; and
so bloodthirsty are they, that, rather
than let go, they will suffer their
bodies to he severed from their heads.
The bite, however, is fortunately nom
poisonous, and leaves no i'll after eff
fects when the assailant has been
torn off; but this does not prevent the
Siafu from being very real danger
to living beings.

have known them to kill pigs in their
stys, by crawling into their brains
through the snout. 1t has happened
that babies, who had been temporarily
deposited on the ground by their
mothers and left alone, have become
their victims. This sort of death, as
is generally known, was capital
punishment for certain crimes, in use
with many native races.
Although the European ant, as re-
CARDS ferocity, cannot be compared
with the African warrior ant, it, too,
was used occasionally, and not so long
ago, either, as an instrument of tor
ture. During the Polish insurrection
in 1863-64, the insurgents killed
prisoners by hanging them from
trees, head downward, into ant heaps;
and the same horrible torture was,
until not many years ago, a favorite
way of retaliation used in Slavonic
countries by poachers against obnoxi-
GUS gamekeepers.
The rapidity with which Siafu
spread over the body of animate be-
ings, whether man or beast, is amaz-

His added knowledge of the propulsion
of the airplane gave him new ideas 20

seriously to consider the construction of
new car which should completely
abolish vibration-the enemy to COM

men. finding his ideas practical and
worthy of their backing, formed a COM
