The Red Mans Burden
The spectacle of an aged Indian
preaching a prohibition sermon over the
grave of his son while hundreds of
blanketed braves stood by in silence
was presented one day last week at
Lander Wyoming when Wolf Bear
sub chief of the Arapahoe tribe de
livered a forceful and pathetic address
at the grave of Leo Wolf Bear
The young brave drank too much
white mans whiskey laid down on a
railroad track to sleep and was killed
The white mans whiskey kill my
only son said the venerable chief
You see young men of the Arapahoes
what the white mans whiskey will do
I dont blame the white man for drink
ing and selling whiskey but I hope the
young men and women of my tribe will
have more judgment than their pale
face brethren and abstain from fire

VESTS CAMPAIGN SPEECH
Why a Small Boy Persisted In Hear
ing It Every Day
Senator Vest was making a buggy
campaign In southeast Missouri some
years ago said a Missouri official
Ills driver was a small boy who was
duly Impressed with the Importance
of his distinguished passenger
At each town visited by Vest the
boy hurried his team to a convenient
livery barn and then raced for the
courthouse or wherever the speakia
was to take place and perched him- j
self with painful regularity on the
front seat He Invariably turned his
eyes on the senator and took In every
word of the speech as If his very life
depended on It
Finally the lads continued conspic
uous presence among his auditors an
noyed the senator and he kindly but
firmly reminded the boy that it was
not necessary for him to attend every
meeting
I make the same speech each time
You have heard it often enough to
know It by rote so just put In your
time In the future looking after the
team he admonished his youthful
driver
Despite the senators objection the
boy was again in the front seat the
next day and the following day This
enraged Vest and he thundered
The Appreciation of Music
If we would appreciate music aright
we must remember that its beauty de
pends not upon the composer alone
but upon ourselves also Deep calls
unto deep and the harmony of sound
though appealing primarily to the out
ward ear must be answered by a har
mony from within ourselves The
more culture we bring to the hearing
of music the wider our sympathy the
more exquisite will be the echoes
which it awakens In the soul If we
would understand the composers mes
sage we must co operate with him
We must reach out to him with all
our faculties If we do that the reve
lation of music will ceaselessly renew
its beauty ever turning unimagined
aspects to gladden us Redfern Mason

Among the lizards of Australia the
thorny devil Moloch horridus is
unrivaled in Its ugliness From the
tip of its nose to the end of its tail
this lizard is covered with tubercles
and spines but in spite of its danger
ous appearance it is quite harmless
It measures about seven inches in
length It has a flat body a small
head and a cylindrical tail It fre
quents sandy places feeds largely on
ants and is more or less diurnal In
Its powerful limbs are fur

iises in digging the sand in which it
often lies wholly or partially buried

Naval academy at Annapolis

spects from commencement week at
the average college or nnhcrsity The

the events of the week is the inspection
by the visiting board appointed by the
president acting under the authority
of congress
This year special interest has per
tained to the graduating exercises at
Annapolis because of the visit of the
Baron and Baroness Triii of Japan
The baron is a vice admiral of the
Japanese navy and a graduate of the

class of SI The academy had much

living graduates The class of SI held
a dinner which the Japanese admiral
attended and he was a guest of honor
at various other functions June week
begins with the receptions to the board
of visitors and ends with the grand
ball with which almost all educational
institutions wind up the festivities sig
nalizing the close of the academic
year One event of the week which
always enlists the interest of visitor
is the sail drill on board the Severn
the practice ship named in honor of
the beautiful rher which bounds one
side of the campus Gunnery of
course is a subject which occupies
leading attention at the academy and
the artillery drills are naturally fore
most in interest The efficiency of a
warship is at bottom the efficiency of
her and it is considered the
duty of every officer aboard her to
see that the highest possible results
are obtained from the ordnance equip
ment put into their hands to ue
Few people are aware how broad an
education is given to the graduate at
Annapolis or how well his brain and
body are both trained
Few appointments under the govern
ment involve the necessity for more
general and scientific attainments As
officers of the navy the graduates are
required to act as judges of the la
and evidence on trials of their brothei
officers for offenses affecting the live
and character of the accused as com
manders of ships they should not on
possess a practical acquaintance wl
seamanship but an accurate knowl
edge of thoe branches of mathematics
connected with the science of naviga

and as commanders of fleets or squad

THE ELEPHANT FLEET
How It Is Used by the British Gov
ernment In India
Its elephant fleet is one of the stran
gest and most deadly departments
maintained by the British government
in India It is a large fleet of coast
ing steamers specially built for the
transport of elephants Indias popu
lation is onv fifth that of the entire
globe AH these people use elephants
They use them for draft work and for
tiger hunting and in the arenas of the
native stales they even pit them
against one another and against wild
beasts The elephant fleet transfers
the animals from Dacca the trapping
and training headquarters to the va
rious districts whence comes the de
mand
To get an elephant aboard ship is a
difficult and dangerous task The ani
mal must wade through the surf to a
stout raft and this unknown surf so
white and tumultuous often terrifies
and maddens him If in his fury he
slaughters a mahout or two he cannot
be greatly blamed Once on the raft
his legs are tied to pegs and the slow
sail to the ship Is uneventful But
now a great band must be arranged
under the elephants belly and a crane
must hoist him up some twenty or
thirty feet to the deck nere again
the elephant cannot be set down as in
tractable if losing his head In that
unprecedented aerial Journey he mur
ders some more mahouts Very pros
perous albeit stained a little with ma
houts blood the elephant fleet for
many years has plied up and down the
Indian coast embarking and dlsem
birking its heavy unmanageable
freight New York Tress

and formulas of naval construction

me by an amateur nrosnetor who

asked
None at all he replied In his dry
falsetto

had come right through Bear Camp
Oh yes he returned quite s

out Four times as big as lie she was
I assure you
Did you run I asked laughing
Oh not at all not at all said he
But still I thought it best not to re

stubbly chin reflectively
By Jove said he finally how
very interesting I should have thought
to photograph the old one She looked
quite savage dont you know
Such a picture would have been
unique to say the least I replied
Quite so said he
