ALLIGATORS AS BOATMATES Experience With One That Had Been Apparently Killed. Alligators move rapidly under water, are hard to see, harder to hit, and the harpoon will penetrate only the least accessible portions of the body. Xor does the title to the hide necessarily pass with making fast the weapon. Ouc afternoon in the Cheesehowitz kee river I harpooned a large alligator which towed me up and down the stream for an hour or two and then sulked in its deepest part. I pulled on the line until the boat was directly over him and stirred him up with the harpoon pole. lie rolled himself up on the line in the manner peculiar to sharks and alligators and banged the boit suggestively. We rowed to the bank and, making fast to some bushes, hauled on the line until we succeeded In worrying him nearly to the lioat, when he rose to the surface and at tacked us with open mouth. We re pelled the attack with harpoon pole and rifle. The former was promptly bitten in three pieces, but the latter ap parently finished him. It was so nearly dark that we decided to carry him in the skitf a mile down the river to where our sloop was anchored. We broke the seats out of the boat and together man aged to lift the head of the alligator aboard and tie It. We then tied the other end, when the reptile came to life and landed a blow with his tail which lifted me out of the skiff Into the saw grass, with the breath knocked out of my body and my hand and face badly cut by the grass. Boat and boatmen were capsized. As my rifle had fortunataly been left upon the bank, I was able to kill the alliga tor again. We secured him by floating the boat under him and then balling it out. The alligator completely filled the boat, so that my companion and I sat upon his back as wo paddled down the river with gunwales unpleasantly near the water. It was growing dark, and the water around us was becoming alive with alligators. While wo were reflecting upon our overloaded condition our alli gator came to life again and shifted ballast until water poured over the gunwale. We quickly balanced the boat, only to see it again disturbed and to ship more water. A scramble for the shore followed, which we reached with out capsizing and where we left our victim for the night after again killing him. In the morning our buzzard friend from the Homosassa river, sur rounded by his family, was sitting above him in the tree waiting for us to attend to our carving duties.—Country Life In America. UNPLANTED CORN. It IIa« «t Hnlilt of Gettlnnr I'neany In the SprtnK. "It beats all," said a Bergen county farmer, "what curious things we find in nature that we can't explain. You kiu go over a lot of 'em, and there's yet one that you can't tell me why It is. That's corn beatin' up In the spring. "You take a lot of corn. I don't care If It's whole corn or cracked corn or cornmeal. You keep it In any kind of storehouse—the common granary, like we have on the farms, or the stone or brick buildin', like many of the gro cers and feed dealers have it In. When it comes corn plantin' time, that corn of yourn 'll git oneasy. Soon's the blades start out of the ground, then you'll have to hustle to save your grain. "Seems as when the time comes along fur corn to be planted the corn in the bags, no matter what shape it's in, be gins to heat up, and when the planted corn begins to grow what you've got stored will git so hot it'll fairly smoke. You've got to take It out of the bags and spread It out so it'll cool off or you'll lose It all. In a few days it'll cool down again, and you won't have no more trouble with it durin' the sum mer, no matter how hot the weather gits. It's Jest when the planted corn starts; that's all. "Curious? Of course it's curious or I wouldn't speak of It. I might under stand how whole corn would act that way, but when it comes to cracked corn and cornmeal then it's too much fur me. And I'll bet you can't tell why it is, 'cept it's Jest nature tryin" to assert herself."—New York Mail and Express. Writing; on Wood. Some persons are of the opinion that the first writing was upon thin pieces of wood. From their convenience this seems probable. Such boards were used at an early period by the Greeks and Romans, and were frequently covered with wax, which was of course more easily written upon than the bare wood. Where wax was used errors were readily erased by rubbing with the blunt end of the piece of metal which serv ed for a pen. To make the writing more visible it appears that some black substance was smeared over the sur face of the white wax and remained in the scratched marks. THE MISSING FOWL. An Experience With >u Al»*ent nilnded Euifllah Artist. Wills invited me to dinner one after noon when I met him in the Strand. 1 accepted, reminding him that as he was absentmlnded he had better make a note of the evening. As he had no paper in his pocket he wrote the date on his shirt cuff. When the appointed evening arrived I went to his studio. The door was opened by Wills, and I could see that he lind forgotten all about the appointment. "Ah, old fel low," he exclaimed, "do not be too hard on me. The cuff went to the wash, and the date with It. But there is a fowl In the pot boiling here," con tinued Mr. Wills. "Just come in and wait a few minutes." I had my misgivings, but walked in side and sat down upon the only chair not crowded with paint, brushes and palettes. After waiting for about twenty minutes, feeling deucedly hun gry, I groaned. This had the effect of reminding Wills that I was present. He exclaimed in a dreamy voice, "The fowl must be boiled by this time," and coming forward he lifted the lid of the pot and peered lnskle. "It is very odd," he remarked, "but I cannot see the fowl. Extraordinary! No one has been here, so the bird cannot have been stolen." Well, the long and short of it Is that a week or two later I called again at the studio, noticed a peculiar ml or and discovered the old fowl wrapped up In a piece of brown paper. "Ah!" said Wills, "now I know how it all hap pened. When the fowl was brought In there came a Smart visitor—Lady G.—• about sittings for her portrait. I must have thrown the fowl behind a canvas and forgotten all about it. But now; old fellow, do shut up!"— London Mail. A Comfort Anj-wny. "Speaking of grewsome remarks," said the ruddy old Scotch gentleman on his way from the far west to revisit Scotland for the lirst time in half a cen tury, "there was an old lady friend of mine in San Francisco who persisted in looking upon this Journey of mine as a madly adventurous templing of Prov idence.
