FINDING MEN IN SNOWSLIDES
| Frick Learned from Indians Proves
Eficacious in Saving Many
Lives.
| Ell Smith Is credited with having
{saved the lives of 25 men at Sheep
| Camp in the spring of 1595 at the time
of the great spowslide on the Dyea
trall. It will be recalled, says the
Seattle Post-Intelligencer, that 63 men
were killed by the slide, most of them
{ suffocating before rescuers oould
| yemch them. Smith was on the trall
several miles below the slide. He came
| up three-quarters of an hour after the
| tragedy and found the survivors fram-
{ tically trying to dig the victims out
“Give me that stick.” sald Smith to
| > man who had a fiat lathlike piece of
wood in his hand
The stick was turned over to Smith,
who immediately whittled the end so
that he could insert i{ In his mouth
and grasp It Grmly with his back
teeth. Then he (hrust the stick In the
snow and held the end in his mouth,
apparently listening. He repeated the
operation at several points ia the
slide. Finally he shouted:
“Come! Dig here, guick!”
At a depth of nine feet the rescuers
took out three men, unconscious, but
alive. Those three men recovered
znd were all right by morning
In the same manner Smith pointed
out other places, which resulted In the
locating of many bodies and the un-
covering io all of 25 men Whose lives
were saved.
“Where did you learn that
Smith was asked, Lhe other day
“l learned that in Idaho, at Wood
river,” sald he. “The Indians know
that trick. i guess a wire would be
better than a stick, but they don't
keep wire in stock out In the wilds,
so Indians always use a stick. You
ree if a feller is alive you can sort of
hear him breathe, or | guess it's more
like feeling him breathe. If he Is
kicking or moving around you can
bear him plain. You just put the stick
down into the snow two or three feet
and you can hear a feller breathing,
even If he's 20 feet further down”

Chicago —The latest adventure of a
Chicago girl Is that of Mrs Lionel
Warren, formeriy Miss Agnes Lae,
who has returned to America from In-
dia, where she has spent the summer
shooting tigers. This modern Dama
invaded the Indian jungles and speat
days in the vicinity of the watering
places and the lairs of Bengal tigers.
She helped her husband organize
wholg communities of barbarous na-
tives into netting expeditions alter the
man eaters. On one occasion, by ber
accurate alm, she saved the life of an
English army officer, one of her party,
who was about to be attacked by a
wounded tiger
Mrs. Warren is the wife of a pro-
fessor In the service of the Royal
Bombay soclety and it was her devo-
tion to her husband that led her Into
the hazardous hunting and geographl-
cal expedition from which she return-
ed 80 fecently. She tells the story of
her adventures best in<her own diary
“Our mission lay through the unex-
plored jungle regions between Assam
and Trichinopojl After a monoton
ous march—elephants compare poorly
with American locomotives in point of
speed—we reached the border of the
Jungle. ®
“Making camp for the night, the
guides were dispatched to discover the
best way for entering the mysterious
region wo wera about to penetrate.
The pext night nur camp was pitched
far inland. This section was a haunt
of tgers noted for thelr boldness and
ferocity. Six villagers recently had

They will return to Sayre in a few

would-be lessee has asked for his li-
cense. It has been observed by grave
writers that public houses of enter
talnment have often provided the
haunts of those prominent In litera
ture and the arts Chaucer cheered
mine host at the Tabard; Shakespeare,
Ben Johnson and their fellows made
merry at the Mermaid; Congreve and
Wycherly bad their revels at the Half
Moon, and there are othey famous ex-
amples of England. For our own aside
of the water we have the literary tra-
ditions of the Wayside Inn, we know
of Irving listening to strange tales at
the old Bull's Head In New York—
and we need not mention the late
Subway Tavern, of brief but strenuous
note.

was without distinction In her own

worthy. It is perhaps mevitable that

FUR FARMING FOR -PROFIT,
Noted Naturalist Tells What Are
the Best Animals to
Raise.
Fur farming offers a good chance
for small capital. A man of experi
ence may put in $1,000 and get a re
markable percentage 8s soon as well
started, says Ernest Thompson Seton,
in Country Life In America There is
no object in breeding cheap furs. A
muskrat with his 15-cent pelt is al
most as much trouble to raise as a
$300 silver fox. Therefors only the
high-class furs will be congldered
What is the most valuable fur of
all? No doubt the sea otter
ple and magnificent robe brings vow,
I am told, from $500 to $1,000, but the
animal is s0 rare that a large fortune
would be exhausted In getting the
stock, and nothing Is known of the
methods necessary for its propagation
Next on the list is the sliver fox
The black og sliver fox Is nothing but
a black phase or [freak of the com-
mon fox, just as the black sheep Is
a color freak of the common sheep
A pair of pure red foxes may have
a black fox in their litter, and that
black fox may grow up to be the par.
ent of nothing but red foxes, but =
red fox will bring only a dollar or
two and the silver fox a hundred
times as much.

“My first night in the jungle was
one never to be forgotten. The tents
were arranged io a circle around four
fires. Perhaps it was the reflection of
these fires, through the thin tangle of
brush and trees, that alarmed the jun-
gle denizens, though it may have been
®.¢ odor of the cooking. After the
watch was posted, we were awakened
by a shot A native hunter had fired
at a pair of blazing eyes in the nelgh-
boring thicket
“The shot was followed Ly a plerc-
ing snarl and an ear-splitting roar
which was the signal for the weirdest
chorus that ever assalled mortal ear.
It was as If the jungle suddenly had
awakened for miles around
“Jackals were snarling querulously,
and the laugh of the hyena echoed un-
der the tiger's dominant note. As If
reverberating from the very heart of
the earth, the sound waxed stronger,
fuller, followed by a low, ominous
rumble and the sounds of lesser ani-
mals betaking themselves to places of
distant safety"
Mrs. Warren thus recounts the story
of her first encounter with the tigers:
“We mounted the elephapts, and
with provisions for two days, set
forth. Suddenly the guides gave the
signal to halt. A second later a mag-
nificent tiger bounded out of the
thicket, snarling with surprise and
rage. Evidently the beast had been
caught napping. Before he gained the
thicket a shot shattered his foreleg.
“lastead of turning at bay, he gave
a prodigious leap into the alr, re-
volving with lightning-like rapidity,
and tearing at the damaged leg as IL
it were the offender. Clouds of dust
from the sunbaked earth hid him from
view as he plunged on in his blind
fury
Colonel Ellis (the army officer who
had joined the expedition) and three
{ natives dismounted In pursult of the
wounded monster. One of the hunters
came running toward us with a shout
Colonel Ellls, emerging from the thick-
et, found himself! in the open, tne
wounded tiger scarcely 30 paces away
The natives were too demoralized to
do anything but run. Colonel Ellis
fired point blank at the beast, but
missed
“80, scarcely hoping to do any good,
I raised my amall-bore rifle against
the houdah post, and, aiming at the
shoulder, fired. To my astonishment
the splendid brute bounded ten feet
in the air, and fell in a heap at the
colonel’'s feet”
