was to kill her in the most speedy and
least painful manner, without mangling
or mutilating her. that she seemed to

"After this, my host undertook to

"From this situation she was found,

uffocated immediately that she flounc

The Nile monitor or varan (Varanus
Kllotlous), of which the newcomer at
the Zoo is a specimen, is, perhaps, the
largest member of the family, and has
been known to attain a length of over
alx feet. In structural character It Is
somewhat distinct from other lizards,
approaching In several respects its en

crocodiles, or the young crocodiles
themselves, that it chiefly feeds, a hab

' ' A Grand Army post has just been

with one exception, is made up of Rom

Order ot the Holy Cross. This unique
addition to the Grand Army is located
t JJoUe Dame, the seat ot Notre Dame
University. The formation of the post
was suggested by the presence In the
university of ao many Instructor who
fcugbt in the war or were chaplains.
A brother who fought all through the
war in the Irish brigade was re;enJy
transferred to Notre Dame from an
vnlversity, and a list of eligibles was

'llio Ihlo of Man, while belonging to

Scotch, Irish nor Welsh, but is a
separate country, with a homo-rule
government and a language of its
own, but yet with great loyalty to tho
. linis-ritil government and devotion to
the sovereign, for everywhere you go
you see pictures oi mo royal lainuy.
The government is known an the
hoiiHo of keys" and consints of twenty-four
inemU rs, elected every seven
years; but no person has a vote unless
ho iNtsses-HiM nuil estate of tho value
of i'4i, or occupation of the vulue of
1'liO per year, and women are also
entitled to vote. Tho court
of Tynwald, presided over by the
lieutenant governor, is conijioscd of
tho council, which embraces tho
bishop, attorney general, two judges,
the clerk of the rolls, wutor bailiT
and tho vicar general. This council
and tho house of keys are tho active
government of tho great Isle of Man.
There is ono feature of Bcial inter
est in reference to tho laws, and that
is that all laws p:iHsod by tho house ot
keys are sent for tho royul assent, and
when that lias been hoeured then tho
law must ba formally read in tho
English, and Manx languages on
Tynwald hill in tho open air, where
tho council and the keys united form
a Tynwald court, before they become
laws. This form of reading the law
at Tynwald is the oldest stylo on
record; was old In 1417 and has been
continued ever since. The 6th day of
July In ouch year is the day of public
proclamation of the laws passed by
tho house of keys.
Tho coat of arms of this islo is threo
legs of a man in a circle. The motto,
translated, reads: "Whithersoever
thrown, I shall stand. Tho Manxmen
apparently rather enjoy tho tliroo
legged crest, for everywhere you turn
your face, whether at a steumloat, a
railroad, a couch, a flag or on the win
dows of the stores, there you see tho
threo legs.

of our report and we had to accom

cat. I don't think pussy is improved
by tho absence of tho tail. Some peo
plo say this strange uet of nature ex
tends to tho dogs also.
The Manx language, like tho
ancient language of Ireland, is fast
passing away, and in a generation it
will bo ono of tbo dead languagos, en

woman on tho side of a mountain soil

Philip Knopf, a mounted policeman
altaclMMl to tho High Bridge sUtion,
went to his home, in Anderson avenue,
near High Bridge road at n.n the
other day, bays tho New York Record
er. It was his "short day off," and
after his lunch ho went to his room to
lio down for ho had been on duty since
midnight, and felt tired. Knopf's
family life was ideal. His w ife and
live littlu children idolized him. Mar
gery, hi two-year-old daughter, a
sweet-faced child with big brow n eyes
and yellow hair, wus deeply attached
to her father, and whenever ho was at
homo bhe followed him aUiut from
room to room, and if he went up stairs
tihe climbed up after him in case ho
did not carry her. Knopfs police
record was most excellent.
When Knopf retired to his room lit
tle Margery, as usual, pattered after
him.
"Now stay downstairs, little one,
while I go up and sleep for uwhilo,
and then papa will come down to see
his Margery," said the policeman to
the littlu girl. Margery wrinkled up
her pretty little forehead into a frown,
and instead of olieyinLf she spent tho
next five minutes'in climbing upstairs.
Sho pushed ojwn the door of her
father's room and saw him sleeping on
tho lied. Sho tiptoed quietly n, for
she didnt wan't to waken him. Knopf
had taken oil his coat and had placed
his revolver on the bureau. Margery
was uttracted by tho shining metal,
and toddled to tho bureau to inspect
the weapon more closely. She picked
it up and was examining it when the
father awoke. Ho started with fright
and all symptoms of sleepiness loft him,
for the little girl had the pistol pointed
directly at her breast and was finger
ing the trigger. Every chamber of
tho revolver a big 88-caliber affair
was loaded.
Knopf didn't dare to cry out. He
feared to startle the child, so that she
might clutch the trigger with sufficient
strength to discharge the piptol. All
his hope was centered in tho fact that
perhaps her tiny fingers would not be
strong enough to move the trigger.
As nonchalantly as he could, he arose
quickly, and then mode a leap for
tho pistol. He grabbed tho barrel
away from the child's breast, but in
doing so pointed it directly at his own
body. Unfortunately the child's fin
gers were wedged in around the
trigger. In trying to unclasp the
child's hand, tho child Involuntarily
clutched the trigger tighter under the
pressure of the father's fingers on her
arm.
There was a report and Knopf fell
to the floor, the little girl still keep
ing tight hold of the pistol, from the
barrel of which white smoke curled.
"Oh. Margery, dour little Mai-gory,
you have shot papa!" exclaimed the
policeman, clutching his hand to his
left side, from which blood was oozing
and staining his vest and the floor.
Startled by the shot, Mrs. Knopf ran
upstairs. Sho stood transfixed at the
door, her eyes wide with terror. The
little girl waved the still smoking
pistol at hor and lisped:
"Papa's pistol. Papa sick!"
"Minnie, I'm shot. I tried to get
my pbtol away from Mario," ex
plained tho wounded man. Hulf an
hour later he was dead.
