Numbers of Thass 8oelstles Kill Their Victims With Sharp Iron Claws. P. Asmaury Talbot, who had an op portunity to learn something about two of the best-known Leopard societies, lias this to say In Adventure Magu- zlne about the Sierra Leone branch: ’’Members of this society can often be recognized at sight, as many of them have the sharply protruding fore head, caused by pressure applied In Infancy by their mothers. “When the society wishes to kill a man certain members are chosen for the deed. These are armed with a set of Iron Instruments fastened Inside both hnnds, and they track their vic tim until they come upon him In a lonely part of the bush. They watch their opportunity, suddenly spring upon him from behind and seize him by the throat. Should the body ever be discovered, the marks upon It so ex actly resemble those made by leopard claws that the death Is put down to those beasts.’’ So that the claws are useful as well as emblematic I And it Is evident that members of the Leopard society are brought up to It from Infancy. Stora Wracked by Autos 40 Times. There Is a corner drug store In Paris close to the terminus of the Northern railroad which possesses an Irresistible attraction for motor-driven vehicles. Placed Just below the meet ing point of two rapidly descending streets. It has been wrecked forty times In the last thirteen years. Three months ago a motorcyclist drove through Its glass front and died on the spot. A few days later a motor jorry crashed through Into the middle pf the shop without causing any fatali ties. Recently a taxicab went right through the store, brenklng the large red-colored globes that still mark a drug store In France, overturning the counter and doing about $1,500 worth of damage to the stock. The proprie tor of the store complains that these repeated mishaps are ruining his busi ness ; his shop is forever under repairs and customers go elsewhere. Phoenician Stans. The Phoenician stone was a famous Imposture, In the shape of a stone, hearing a bilingual Inscription In Greek and In pretended Phoenician, and pur- ortlng to be a genuine tablet of the lfth century B. C. In 1824 the stone was sent from Malta to Raoul Ro- chette, curator of the cabinet of antiq uities st Paris, snd was declared to be genuine by him. A copy of the In scrlption was sent to several of the lenrned men of Europe for decipher ment nnd translation. Among the sa vants Imposed upon. In addition to Rochette, were Gesenlus of Halle and Hamnker of Leyden. The Phoenician stone was afterward proved to be n hoax. r Three Naw Glaclera Found. Klseovery of three new glaciers In the Bitter Root range In Montana was made recently by Theodore Shoemaker and K. D. Swan of the forest service. All are located on a ridge between the Rig nnd Kootenai creeks. A climb of 4.000 feet was made by the explorers Into a wild nnd little traveled section before the glacial formations were sighted. One of the lee musses was of bilge proportions, while the other two were considerably smaller. Inspection of the area, Including the study of rock deposit» and other geological signs, In dlcntee that the glaciers are receding rapidly, Mr. Shoemaker said.

BIRD MELODIES AND MUSIC Beautiful Passages in Works af Great Composers Borrowed From Feath ered Blngore. The successful broadcasting of the song of canaries and the response of other birds mile* away from the point of transmlaslon will provide new im petus for tho discussion of the con tribution bird melodies have made to music. It has been claimed by close students of bird life that many of the most beautiful passages in the works of great composers are lifted note by note from the birds, and that the pa tient watcher may hear Beethoven from the throat of an oriole, note for note and measure for measure, em phasis and everything. Nor la this the only Incident cited. They number, lit erally, score». There la nothing sur prising in this. Bird-music Is the most fluent and natural In the world; so- called coloratura voices merely are In Imitation of the bird voice, and their most noted numbers are usually enti tled with some alluaon to birds. No one who haa listened to the surprising flights of melody of which a canary is capable but marvels at the mysteries which create such a tiny, delicate and perfect mechanism.—-Detroit News. Glvsa $50 for Twins. Max Dick, owner of the tenement house at 09-73 Rlvlngton street. New York, which la known as the “house of babies,” because 52 families with more than 200 children live there, re cently made good hla standing promise to present cash prizes to tenants who became parents of twins. Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Berger became the possessors of twins, which brought their family up to five. The twins, a boy and a girl, each weighing 5H pounds, were named Samuel and Esther. “Uncle" Dick, as he Is called, attended the feast nnd afterward handed Mrs. Berger $50 In gold and told her that ahe could forget rent day until the end of February. Max Dick has a unique record among East aide landlords. He has not in creased the rent In twenty-five years and has never ousted a Jobless tenant for nonpayment of rent. He arrived here penniless forty years ago from Austria. First he worked In a tailor’s shop and then he tended bar. With his savings he bought the tenement house. In 1908 he offered $50 for every pair of twins born there and $180 for the ninth child If It were a boy. At the same time he assured his tenants that large families would not mean high rents and he has kept his word. Tea Rich to Ba a Communist. Questions of doctrine continue to trouble Communists—both punillts In high places and the simple minded faithful In the villages. Heretical con duct, as well as heretical opinion. Is ground for excluding men from the party. The story Is told of a humble and sincere Communist rural family, where the wife was an enterprising woman of the thrifty, “managing” type. She gradually accumulated a pig, some fowls and some rabbits, which multiplied until by selling part of them and a few household belong ings ahe was able to buy a cow. Thus eventually ahe developed a little stock farm. However, the family’» unusual standard of well being was looked upon with suspicion by the husband’s fellow Communist», who derided to exclude him from the party. In the course of his trial for heresy the deli cate point came up as to Just how many turkeys changed a Communist Into a bourjooy.—Living Age. AMERICAN CHARITY ALONECAN SAVE vation; Oregon Is Raising W hen you need any thing m the In o ol n e at and attracthro THESE ARE THE DAYS THAT YOU $100,000 to Help Them. NEED IT The very la te « official word from headquarters of the American Com mittee for Relief of German Children, of which Major-General Allen, com mander of the American troops on the Rhine during occupational days, la na tional director, is that conditions In Germany beggar description. Millions of children, under nourished because of food scarcity and frightfully piti able conditions resulting from the war. absolutely face starratlon; Amer ican charity alone will sava them. It is declared officially in dispatches from General Allen end Herbert Hoover, on President Coolidge'* au thority. Economic breakdown, valueless money end other things combine to make of this situation one of the m o« appalling in the world’s history. Babes as innocent ot wrong-doing as any ever born are going to die for lack of food unless America saves them. Other ways have been tried, without résulta. “Oregon w ill do its share, which haa been placed at $100,090,” said Robert H. Strong, of the firm of Strong A MacNaughton, Portland, who was state director for the Hoover food re lief campaign for Europe here In 1921, and who is state chairman for this campaign. “Word ts reaching our headquarters, 715 Corbett building, that the whole state is aroused; that oui- people everywhere are deeply af fected by th,e sad conditions with which German children are faced, and that they are ready to respond with their money to alleviate th i* terrible suffering. All possible speed should be made in thia work and we are or ganizing in every section of Oregon to that end. I appeal on behalf of the Innocent ones for hearty co-operation, for prompt and liberal response in money to the cry for aid that haa gone up.” C oal and W o o d WE HAVE A GOOD SUPPLY OF LUMP AND EGG COAL ALSO GOOD DRY Slab W ood —ANU—.
