OCEAN LINERS CARGO
Four Hundred Husky Longshoremen
to Lead Ono Ship

mills froi i the forests the cotton plan

vineyards from the oil Colds and meat

barrels of flour and boxes of fruit
hogshead of oil and casks of wine
tens of thousands of things and ma

wharf by the acre And still all night
the teams clattered In and the tugs
puffed up with the barges and lrom
hundreds of miles away the trains
were rushing hither bringing more
boxes and- barrels and bags to be
packed In at the last moment
In gangs at every hatchway the 400
men were trundling heaving strain

at the hoarse shouts of the foremen
while from the darkness outside heavy
black rope nets dropped down to gath
er gigantic handfuls of cargo swing
them back up to the deck of tlw ship
and then down into her hold So all
through the night and right up to the
hour of sailing the rush went on for

HUNTING WILD HORSES
How Brumbies In New South Wales
Are Trapped and Broken
Hunting brumbies as the wild
horses are called there is a favorite
sport in New South Wales Districts
like the Clarence and Stephens and
Manning river watershed are still the
home of numerous droves of brum
bies and bunting them is declared to
be n very exhilarating pastime The
first stop taken is to stake out a corral
and make all secure except a narrow
entrance which can subsequently be
gated On either side of the entrance
and projecting from it funrtclwise a
booby fence is prepared
To the simple minded brumby it
presumably looks like a stockade and
pieces of fluttering cotton make it look
impregnable When this is ready the
young bloods well mounted gallop
out and round up the wild horses
driving them with shouts and much
loud snapping of stock whips toward
the mouth of the funnel
In a group of brumbies there is al
ways a loader and when once the
hunters have got the leader heading
for the corral they are pretty certain
of the rest of the drove The flutter
ing cotton rags of the sham fence aro
sufficient to deter the brumbies from
breaking through the flimsy barriers
and in less time than it takes to tell
the wild horses are safely corralled
and the big gate shut on them
Then they are left for four and
twenty hours without food and water
to reflect on the situation and after
that they can be broken in without
much difficulty London Standard
He2rn as a Creative Artist
Ilearns creative faculty began where
creation is commonly held to end with
the material given Of the creative
gift in the sense in which the phrase
Is applied to the poet he had not a par
ticle He was not a maker but a
shaper Dr Gould puts the matter
bluntly when he says He had no
original thing to say for he was en
tirely without creative power and had
always to borrow theme and plot
And again Clearly and patently It
was a mind without creative ability
spring or the desire for it It was a
mind improoreant by inheritance and
by education by necessity and by
training by poverty internal and ex
ternal The truth in these word be
comes evident when one rei alN the
failure as fiction of every one of
Fleams attempts in thi held and the
fact that hl greatest - were
won in reeKithing the of other
