The suggestion has been officers reslgned Aurin: September, last; seven tendered their resignations in October, five in November, while seven signed during December. The belief has been expressed that the resignations have heen prompted, in some instances, by the prevailing unrest which exists among the’ mem- them baby rivers, but: When it comes to the romance and history of a past that can count its centuries by the dozens—our Potomac dwindles in spite of its size.

In British India alone last year it is reported 3,605 persons were killed by wild animals and 20,000 died from snake Dites. Tigers accounted for 1.693 deaths, wolves for §35, leopards for 464, and crocodiles took the lives of 213. The wild pigs killed more than 100: bears and elephants about 70. During the vear about 23,900 wild animals were killed, so that the ratio of human to wild animal deaths in the ngle is only about one to six hanging gardens, is diversified by pleasant little towns, with sudden up. shoots of rock on which the ruins of some ancient castle stand: each dra- matic with the history of its long-ago time. To keep count would require more time than one tourist jaunt, but you manage, somehow, to get your glimpses of such legendary spots, as, say, that Mouse Tower you have known about all your life, still stand- ing, as in its day of famine, when a bishop crowded a multitude of women and children in a barn and set it on fire—glad to have “burned up a lot of rats that were good for nothing but to eat corn”—and then, you re. member, how real avenging rats came by the thousands: swarmed over the tower in which the bishop had hidden and gnawed him to a bone.
