The snowshoe rab- bits dic. And just as surely as they die, 50 do the Iskimo and the Indian of northern Canada. It was In one'of these fatal vears that Alanson Skinner, curator of the Milwaukee muscum, entered the Hud- son Bay country on an exploration trip for the American Museum of Naturai History, the Milwaukee Journal re- ports, y Arriving at Moose Factory, he was surprised at the stories he heard. Every hunter and every trapper from the wilds brought them back. The natives were dying by hundreds, literally starving to death. It was a case of the survival of the fittest. Should a man turn his back upon even his best friend for a moment, he was apt to be killed. Cannibalism was rife. Skinner saw many gruesome sights as he pushed on from Moose Factory to Rupert’s, the last outpost. At one time he sat down to eat beside a French trapper who arrived at Ru- pert’s, He noticed that the man watched him with a strange light in his eyes. He left the table, but on looking back, found the man's eyes were still fastened upon him. “What ails that fellow?” he in- quired of an Indian. “He eat human flesh once of cousin Frenchman and Indian guide,” the na- tive explained. “Now he crazy. Must .| have more all time.” Skinner was mighty glad that be had not encountered the crazed Frenchman alone on the trail, he suid. Fighting Giraffe. The giraffe has neither claws nor sharp teeth with which to defend it- self or to attack its enemies, so when it is out of temper with one of its own kind it does not atrempt to d embowel its adversary, as a rhinoc os might, or tear it, as a tiger wou But nature has given it a long and pliable neck, which terminates In a very solid head, and It uses the upper part of itself like a flaii, swinging its neck round and round and bringing its head down at each swing with a thump on its antagonist. The other combatant uses precisely the same tactics, and the two animals, planting themselves as firmly as pos- sible by stretching out all four legs to the utmost, stand opposite to each other and hammer away with thelr heads until one or the other has had enough. Gardener’s Novel Theory. Gardeners are often men of strong- ly individual- opinious, as not a few employers have discovered. But for a curlous opinion, held most sincere- ly, ‘commend -us' to a gatdener wo! ing near to a celebrated aerodrome. “It ain't the drought that has kept back the flowers and the frult,” says this theorist. “'Tis them gases what come from the fying machines! They poison the air and ruin the gar- dens.” The gardener is quité’‘convinced as to this cause of backwardness, so it is no use arguing with him.- O < Seu Made Seafarers Laugh. i Sclentists of Massachusetts belleve that if the expedition into western || Patagonia results in the diseovery of || a plesfosaurus it will clear up the fdentity of a submarine creature, with a periscope neck reaching far above the water, which was found dead in Mill creek, near Hyannis, in the sum- |[E mer of 1897. - Cape Cod folks who saw the strange “sea giraffe” in the creek believe it was a young plesiosaurns which be- came frozen i polar ice at some re- mote period, drifted down the coast i G in.an iceberg -angd inally, brought umin i craeicl P 1 HAPRRY DIRHANIH The bones of the supposed sea £er- pent were taken,to the.United States fisheries station at Woods Hole, Later Cape Cod Inquirers were told that the creature was €6me kind of a' shark. ver heard of a fish having a as the caustic comment of old seafardrs, : REX THEATRE Starting Sunday James Oliver CURWOOD’S Drama of the Hudson Bay Country “Jan of the | Big Snows” Directed by Charles M.
