like bead, to peer intently into the 1
depths of the black pool beneath, j
Through one of these openings the :
long slender, brown body slips, to turn :
and twist with lightning-like rapidity j
in the icy current Emerging from i
the chilling water, its wet coat glisten- |
icg. its eyes Cashing triumphantly, j
the agile little animal has its jaws j
fastened across the body of a luckless ;
trout. Beneath the shelter of a fallen j
pine, the prize Is placed and closely t
guarded by the suspicious mink. Aft
er many little patrols about the near '
vicinity, made for the purpose of dis- 1
covering any hidden foe. if such there
be. the crafty hunter has partaken of
his well-earned meal. Some telltale
evidences left behind on the trampled
snow proclaim all this, and then the
tracks lead on down the stream.
At some distance from the brook
bed. farther back in the forest, winds
the clear-cut. well-defined tracks of the
red fox. The footprints are distinguish
able from those of the lynx even at I
first glance The imprints themselves !
are narrower, and placed more nearly !
in a straight line: while the stride, j
from the track to track. Is half again
* is long as in the wider lynx trail. The i
drag of the bushy tail Is duly recorded
I as the sharply outlined footprints lead
up to and over the brow of a hill.
From the clean, sharp tracks left on
the snow, one can readily imagine the
sly. red fellow daintily placing those
| tireless black feet. The trail leads
into an old wood road along which
the fox has trotted. At one place, evi
' dently frightened by something he has
: jumped far to one side, then gone on
j at a mad gallop Down to the edge
! of an lce-t overed. snow-coated pond.
! 'he tracks lead. Evidently recovered
from his unexplainable panic, he steals
stealthily to the cover of the bushes
that fringe the froxen lake His trail
proceeds to the outskirts of a frozen
marsh, along which It follows. About
everal muskrat houses his wayward
footprints circle: at one particular
dome-shaped habitation the impatient
fox has scraped away the snow and
seemingly endeavored to scratch
through the lmpentrable. frozen mass
couipOMng the roof Having probably
. 1 the terrified Inmates to aban
don the grass-lined living chamber,
and to plunge Into the black, chilling
water beneath the Ice. he has turned
and made hi* way leisurely across the
swamp to a hemlock grove. Cautious
ly he has worked bis way under the
drooping branches, his keen nose
searching for some promising scent.
He has alarmed a torpid grouse, as re
corded by the disturbed area of snow,
showing the bomb-like flight of the
startled bird at the near approach of
the silent stalker
At one place he has jumped for a
mouse, and. Judged by the Imprints,
has miscalculated the distance and
missed his quarry. Two or three play
ful hounds mark the ascent of his trail
to higher ground, where, reaching
more open country it leads off to the
'j&s&ta
right, the tracks showing he has bro
ken into a hurried trot for parts un
known.
On the crest of a neighboring hard
wood ridge is the trail of a noble
white-tail buck. Differing from the
trail of the doe. by the larger tracks,
more rounded toes, greater length of
stride between prints and drag on the
snow before and after each particular
footprint, the tracks are sufficiently
interesting to follow. From the trail
it may be gathered that the animal
has walked leisurely along up-wind,
browsing on laurel, birch twigs, and
smaller bushes. He has carefully
walked a log to cross a brook, and
stood drinking of the clear, cold wa
ter. Occasionally he has stopped to
listen and look back on his trail for
the detection of any harmful follower.
He has nothing to fear from the front,
for his sensitive muzzle would detect
the warning taint on the breeze, long
before the enemy itself hove in sight.
In several places he has pawed the
snow clear for considerable spaces,
evidently in search of some winter
delicacy beneath the glimmering crys
tals.
Another buck track still larger than
the first, which it joins, promises in
teresting developments further along.
For some distance it follows its rival
j at a walk, then impatience is shown
| in the recorded tracks left by the trot
| animal. This second buck one
; would Judge to be the bigger animal.
! from its larger tracks, although this
need not essentially follow. At any
rate he is evidently in a great hurry
to overtake and challenge his prede
cessor. Judging from his tracks, which
show he has broken into a graceful
canter.
Farther on the snow records the pre
liminaries of battle gone through by
both bucks at sight of each other.
Each has pawed and stamped the
snow in a circle of considerable area.
Both have broken small bushes and
rubbed the bark from saplings with
their antlers.
At last they closed with a rush;
both, from the evidence recorded ap
parently having been carried to their
knees by the force of the impact. Ris
ing. they pushed, retreated and
charged, until the snow was entirely
cleared from the arena. Several times
one or the other has been thrown
heavily to earth; the imprints left by
their bodies being plainly visible. Bits
of hide, long coarse hairs and alarm
ing blotches of red. prove the fler.e
ness of the battle for supremacy.
As is inevitably the case, the weak
at last gave way; bis blood-stained
trail leading off in a series of great
bounds down the hillside. For some
distance the second trail accompanied
it, but finally branched off into a dense
bit of forest, the victor evidently seek
ing the shelter and solitude for recu
peration from his own wounds and
bruises.
As twilight comes stealing over the
whitened landscape, obliterating dis
tance and closing in. In a gradually
contracting circle, many other inter
esting tracks and trails are found,
but the winter days are short and the
fading light beneath the trees drives
one out in the open fields, across them
into the road—and home.

It Is rather rifr-ly the case that the
Cashes In a distant thunderstorm are
so spared that one can tell certainly
to which Cash a particular peal of
thunder belongs: hence the difficulty
of testing the above figures. Such an
opportunity was, however, recently
presented to a well-known German
meteorologist. Dr R. Hennig. while
be was visiting a summer resort on
ths Baltic. Prom his bed one night
be observed flashes of lightning far
oat at sea at Intervals of seven min
utes. The thunder was faint, but dis
tinctly audible. On "counting sec
onds" be found that from SO to 90
seconds and upwards elapsed between
lightning and thunder. The maximum
interval was 96 seconds.
Commenting on this observation a
German meteorological journal states
that In northern Germany Intervals
of from 80 to 85 seconds between
lightning and thunder have frequently
been recorded. On the coast, with
the abnormal distribution of atmoa
pheric density, much greater Intervals
are sometimes observed. At Norden.
In East Fiiesland. on several occa
sions there has been noted intervals
as great as 140 seconds. At ordinary
temperatures of the air this would
correspond to a distance of about 29
miles. In one case an observer be
lieved the interval to have been 310
seconds, representing a distance of
about 65 miles.
Brother’s Heroism Unavailing.
The story of a brother's sacrifice
was related in a compensation case at
Stockport (Eng.) recently. The hair
of a 15-year-old girl, named Edith
Stuart, was caught in some machinery
at the factory where she was em
ployed, and she was completely
scalped. A brother offered to allow
skin from his leg to be grafted on his
sister’s head. Sixteen pieces of skin
from the brother's leg were grafted
on the head of the girl, but she did
not recover. In the allocation of the
compensation. £10 was awarded to
the brother, who was In hospital for
several weeks.
WILL LEAD FIGHT FOR TAFT
Selection of Representative William
U. McKinley of Illinois, chairman of
tbe Republican congressional commit
tee, to lead tbe fight for delegates for
President Taft to the Republican na
tional convention at Chicago, is hail
ed as a drawing taut of the adminis
tration lines in an out and out contest
between President Taft and Theodore
Roosevelt. Mr. McKinley has hither
to been recognized as a standpatter of
the Joseph G. Cannon type. The Taft
men assert that Cannonism is dead
and that the McKinley appointment is
a recognition of the fact that the
standpatters have now aligned them
selves with the president, a middle of
the road progressive Republican, as
against the more radical progressives
represented by Theodore Roosevelt
and Senators La Fcllette and Cum
mins.
Mr. McKinley was selected to lead
the Taft fight on the suggestion of
Senator W. Murray Crane of Massa- ,
chusetts, after a careful poll of the situation. The selection of Congressman ;
McKinley to manage President Taft's campaign for re-election will make 11- ,
linois the center of the Roosevelt-Taft struggle.
McKinley lives in Champaign, 111., and will take a personal pride in deliv- ,
ering his own state to Taft.
He is one of the best-known Republicans in Illinois. As head of the Me- i
Kinley syndicate, which controls the interurban roads of the state, he has :
employes by the hundreds in the larger cities.
There will be plenty of money for the Taft campaign. McKinley, as head i
of the Republican national congressional committee, has gained a reputation
for lavish expenditure in politics.
Some criticism was heard during the day in Republican circles that Mr.
McKinley was not aggressive enough to lead the Taft contest successfully.
His record at the head of the congressional committee was pointed to by
some with misgivings as to the present contest, and it was said he would
bring no new methods into the campaign Friends of the president replied
that the only work now necessary to be done for Taft's renomination is to
have an official spokesman to give orders for the clearing up of a few tangled
situations in various states and who can see to it that delegates are instruct
ed for the president. This work has been done in part by Mr. Hilles and
will be continued. It is assumed that a headquarters force will be employed,
and this will be supplemented by a field force which will attend the various
conventions.
Representative McKinley has been chairman of the Republican congres
sional committee two terms and has just been elected to a third.
MAYOR QUALIFIES AS A COOK
Descendants of Mayor Carter Har
rison will be able to boast reminiscent
ly of the “biscuits father used to
make" and no one shall say them nay
—for his honor the mayor is a culin
ary expert. He does not have to prove
it; he admits it himself.
Mayor Harrison's skill with the skil
let runs through a wide repertory
from boiled eggs to reflector oven bis
cuits—in fact, there is no end to
this man s cleverness until he essays
jelly, then he meets the fate of all
overly ambitious persons, disaster.
Mrs. Harrison is responsible for the
statement that the movoral jelly is not
all that could be desired.
The question as to Mayor Harrison's
qualifications as a cook arose the oth
er day during a lull in the city hall
routine in which Mayor Gaynor's un
happy experience in criticising the
cooking in New York's public schools
was under discussion. The question
of the cooking teachers of the metrop
ons scnoots as to wnat could any mere man kno wabout cooking"" brought
forth the mayoral ire, and with it the mayoral statement as to the mayoral
ability.
"I have cooked for 20 years on hunting expeditions, and I think I can get
away with it in great style. My biscuits are great. I have made them in
a reflector oven in camp, and any one who can make biscuits in such an oven
is all right.”
I^ater Mrs. Harrison, the official Harrison cook, and the maid in the Har
rison household all corroborated the mayor's official edict as to his ability
with the pots and pans and gas range, but said he was "not there” when it
came to making jelly.
“DRUMMER BOY” TO RETIRE
A bill was introduced recently in the
lower house of Congress by Mr. Ash
worth of Ohio to retire with the rank
ot major general three of the best
known officers in the United States
army. In the memorandum attached
to the bill it is stated that "these three
men. with a single exception, form the
last remnant of that army of a million
and a half men who fought for the
preservation of the Union."
The exception referred to is Maj.
Daniel \V. Arnold of the quartermas
ter's department, who also retires by
age limit next summer. However, he
does not figure in the bill because of
the fact that it was not until 36 years
after Appomattox that he came into
the army as an officer from civil life.
The three whose names are men
tioned in Congressman Ashworth's bill
and the combined total of whose serv
ices in the army add up to more than
150 years are Brig. Gen. Daniel H.
Brush, commanding the department of
California: Col. James N. Allison of Governors island, and Col. John I. Clem,
now on duty In Chicago. Colonel Clem is affectionately known to his com
rades of the service as “Johnny Clem, drummer boy of Chickaraauga."
Colonel Clem is not a West Pointer. He had a chance, but became a
commissioned officer about the same time as did Colonel Allison and General
Brush.
NO “400” IN NEW YORK CITY
The question whether the visit of
the duke and duchess of Connaught
and their daughter, the Princess Pa
tricia, will give social leaders a long
sought .opportunity to decide who's
who was put to Frederick Townsend
Martin. He shook his head so de
cidedly that his mustache-ends vi
brated.
“Not at all,” he said, “ihe day of
that necessity is long past. If it ever
existed, it died with Ward McAllister.
New York is too enormous for its
society to be anything more than a
network of cliques. The time was,
years ago, when there were not more
than a few hundred families of great
wealth and cultivation here, that
they all tried to stay together—to
make a social unit. Now it is different.
There is no ‘400' in New York today.
It is a collection of one-hundreds or

CHILD’S HEAD
A MASS OF HUMOR
“I think the Cutlcura remedies are
the best remedies for eczema I have
ever heard of. My mother had a child
who had a rash on its head when it
was real young. Doctor called It baby
rash. He gave us medicine, but It did
no good. In a few days the head was
a solid mass, a running sore. It was
awful; the child cried continually. We
had to hold him and watch him to
keep him from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last
we remembered Cutlcura Remedies.
We got a dollar bottle of Cutlcura Re
solvent, a bos #f Cutlcura Ointment,
and a bar of Cutlcura Soap. We gave
the Resolvent as directed, washed the
head with the Cutlcura Soap, and ap
plied the Cutlcura Ointment. We had
not used half before the child's head
was clear and free' from eczema, and
It has never come back again. His
head was healthy and he had a beau
tiful head of hair. I think the Cutl
cura Ointment very good for the hair.
It makes the hair grow and prevents
falling hair.” (Signed) Mrs. Francis
Lund, Plain City, Utah, Sept 19, 1910.

ment are sold everywhere, a sample
