FEAR LOSS OF ELK HERDS
Animals In Yellowstone Park Are Rap.
Idly Disappearing, According to
Official Reports.
Official# of the United Stntes De
partment of Agriculture are alarmed
the threatened extermination of
the Elk herd In Yellowstone park. On
the ranges of the park, where ordi
narily thousands of these animals
could be seen, only a very few have
been observed this winter. Several
theories have been offered to account
for the marked shrinkage in the herd.
■AJmong these Is the probability that
the majority died frpm natural causes
or had been killed during the last
year. Another Is that the open fall
and winter caused the elk to remain In
hiding In some retreat deep In the
mountains and In the higher and more
Inaccessible potions of the park.
Open falls In the past, however, have
not caused the elk to abandon their
usual customs and habits.
That there has been an alarming
shrinkage In the Yellowstone herd dur
ing the last five years Is an estab
lished fact, according to figures sup
plied by the Department of Agricul
ture. In 1914 It was estimated at
about 25,000; In 1917, 17,500 were
Counted, and. If the figures for the
present year, estimated by those close
In touch with the situation, are true,
there remains much less than half this
number. In 1919, 3,800 head were
killed In the Yellowstone band, the su
pervisor of the Absaroka national
forest reports.
The Department of Agriculture
points out that no herd of wild ani
mals can sustain an annual shrink
age In numbers for any u length of time
and not face complete extermination
within a few years.
DENIES WOMAN IS MYSTERY
Man Is Puzzling Himself for Nothing,
Is Assertion Made by Writer
of Gentle Sex.
After declaring to the reporters who
met him In New York that the women
of today care for nothing but having
a good time and have assumed an atti
tude gf pagan enjoyment, the English
essayist, Gilbert K. Chesterton, is re
ported as moving majestically along
the pier shaking hands with tie cus
tom officers and leaving Mrs. Chester
ton to see about the bagga-ge.
"My wife understands these things;
I don't," he said, with a sweep of his
stick.
It is evident from the report that,
although woman may have changed
much since before the war, as Mr.
Chesterton says, some of the oldtlme
masculine attitude toward them re-'
mains, May Strpnathan writes in the
Pittsburgh Dispatch. In further proof
of this, the Englishman goes on to
speak In the same old prewar way
about the psychology of women, using
the familiar words, "I speak reverent
ly as of a mystery, for a man never
knows what a woman will do," and
then he tells how she will act under
certain circumstances.
The mystery about It Is not In the
psychology of woman, but in the fact
that, having supposed that a woman
would act In the way most natural to
all humanity, he thinks It Is mysteri
ous because a woman does It. He
describes a man as likely to act the
same way under Blmllar circum
stances, but does not see any mys
tery In the masculine point of view.
Hear Heart Yards Away.
An amplifying apparatus described
as so delicate as to permit a physician
in one city to make a stethoscoplc
■tody of the heart action of a patient
hundreds of miles away, was demon
strated to a group of army and civil
ian medical men at the army signal
corps laboratories at Washington. The
principle Involved Is similar to that
used In transmitting President Hard
ing's Inaugural address.
The demonstration - was directed by
Brig. Gen. George Squier, chief signal
ofl|per. The stethoscoplc apparatus,
with electrical connection, was placed
over the heart of one of the laboratory
assistants and the heart fceat was am
plified many thousands of times,
emerging from a phonograph horn and
heard distinctly and studied by tjie
physicians in a room some distance
from that in which the subject was
located.
♦« Class by Underground Tunnels.
An underground tunnel system that
has all the fascination of the cata
combs, although It serves the less dra
matic function of conveying heating
pipes, is one of the chief attractions

It has been completed and ui>
dergraduates are being permitted to
ramble around under the 900-acrt

NEW MONTE CARLO IN CUBA? |
Possibility That World-Famous f»im
' bling Establishment May Be
Located on the Island.
"The greatest gambling center In
the world Will be located in the west
ern hemisphere If plans for *palaces'
In Cuba develop as given out," said
Walter P. Harris of Havanna. "Cuba
la already beset with the gambling
fever, and fortunes change hands
there almost every day.
"Since the of the
prince of Monaco that he is prepar
ing to close Monte Carlo, there have
j been extensive preparations for the
establishment of great gambling pal
aces designed to attract the sporting
element that now visits Monte Carlo
to the 'Pearl of the Antilles.' Several
villages have been surveyed with the
view of locating this gambling cen
ter, but so far no definite decision has
been reached.
"Gambling Is already flourishing In
Havana. The Casino de la Playa is a
great garish temple of roulette, where
wonderful dinners are served at less
than cost. The profit to the house
comes from the wheel. The men who
take women to the Casino for dinner
Invariably back them at the wheel.
"The moratorium now in effect on
the Island has not affected the crowds
at the Casino, because they are most
ly composed of tourists, and the vis
itor Is treated to the sight of a coun
try, apparently bankrupt but gambling
madly, where fortunes change hands
overnight and the beggar of today
may be the rich man of tomorrow." —

HUMAN FACE AS A BEACON
Radiometer Able to Record the
"Shine" Thrown Off, at a Distance
of Several Miles.-
Novelists that speak of a face
"lighting up" put down an actual truth
that few of them are aware of or In
tend. One of the most delicate In
struments In the world, a radiometer,
records the "shine" of a human face,
and can do It at a distance of several
miles. So delicate Is the Instrument
that It can detect and record the glim
mer of a candle half a mile away, and
If there were no atmospheric obstruc
tion It could detect the same candle 10
miles away. The Instrument consists
of two thin glass disks, one polished
and one blackened, suspended by a
quartz thread In a vacuum. Waves of
radiant energy striking this instru
ment disturb Its balance, because the
bright disk reflects them, while the
black one absorbs them.
While the human face to the nor
mal eye gives out no waves of radiant
energy, the fact remains tliat a (*>tv
stant flow of energy Is being thrown
off, and these waves travel an un
known distance. Although the radio
meter Is a wonderful and delicate In
strument, there Is a thermal couple
ten times as sensitive as the radiome
ter and it can detect the heat of a
candle 60 miles distant.
Italy to the Rescue.
Visiting a school Is a doubtful pleas
ure. But the woman had promised to
call for a friend who Is known as a
"rooky" teacher. She waited until al
most closing time before entering the
school, a red brick, lumpy sort of
building, not specially attractive. It
looked as if she had come too soon.
All eyes soon focussed on her Instead
of on the busy little teacher. The
word "trio" was being explained to
the children and volunteers were
asked to stand and use the word In a
sentence. And no one need expect to
go home until the word was fully ex
plained.
Little R. T. coaxed, "Come now, tell
me Just one little story with 'trio' In
It"
Timidly, swarthy little Giuseppe
raised his hand. His naturally happy
face was strained In bis effort to help.
Then flashed a bright smile at the
woman and shouted cheerfully:
"It Is nearly trio clock."—New

Drawer That Will Not Jam.
A new antl-fiiction roller for furni
ture that has sliding parts Is described
by the Scientific American as a sim
ple contrivance with a cylindrical
steel roller which sets In a circular
fnjme that fits perfectly Into a five
eighth Inch auger hole and has a
flange that holds the roller one-six
teenth Inch above the surface. The
device Is designed for use as a bearing
for dresser drawers, extension table*
and other articles of furniture that
frequently cause trouble and give an

CHILDREN OF THE SPRING.
means the Spring to youT—
VV Tl»e tree, the bloom, the gra**;
Wide fields to wander through;
A primrose path to-pass;
Bright sun, and skies of blue;
The songs of singing streams;
The rippling riverside
Awakening from dreams;
Fulr-browed and azure-eyed—
Oh, thus the Springtime seems.
Yet not for such as you
She copies with song and
'Tin not for such as you
She makes the heart rejoiea,
She comes with-skies of blue.
Spring's children are the 111—
' 'TIs these she comes to cheer;
Upon ithe window-sill.
Within the chamber drear.
She sits her song to trill.
On narrow cots they lie
Within the quiet room,
Their sky a square of sky
Cut from the Inner gloom,
From dreary walls and high.
Spring means so much to thes^
The prisoners abed U
The perfume of the breeze,
The birdsong overhead.
The echoed melodies.
The window open wide — \
Behold, the Spring Is here!
No more the countryside
Is dim and dark and drear;
Now stronger runs the tide.
The pale and patient wife,
Her babe upon her brenst.
Forget* the night, the knife.
And sleeps the sleep of rest,
Awnkenlng to life.
The old. the very old.
Behold In budding Spring
Another year unfold — *
And life, a tinsel thing,
Is turned again to gold.
And e'en the empty cot,
Whose Spring has come too lat*
The one who now is nut.
The one who could not wait.
The Spring has not forgot.
For r . see! the stands
Our drooping eyes to raise
To fair and shining strain^;
The Springtime comes and lays
A lily In his hands.

Tongue Glove.
A glove for the tongue has been
newly patented by Gaitiey Guise of
Riley, Ind. He calls it a "tongue
shield," and it Is designed to enable
the wearer to escape the unpleasant
ness of castor oil or other bad tasting
medicine.
The contrivance might be snld to
have the shape of a miniature slip
per without any heel portion, but when
placed over the tongue Is Inverted.
The tongue Is inserted Into the "toe"
part and the back part of the "sole"
extends over the top of the tongue to
ward the throat.
The device Is made of thin sheet
rftbber, so as to be liquid proof, and
Is so constructed as to fit the tongue
snugly without discomfort. When
medicine Is taken It passes Info the
throat without affecting the *ense of
taste, so that all unpleasantness Is ob
viated.
"Maxim Gorky" a Pseudonym.
"Maxim Gorky," who was reported
to be on bis way to England on a
visit to H. G. Wells, but is still held
up by the Bolshevist authorities on the
frontier, is Alexel I'yeshkof, the poet
and chronicler of pariahs and vaga
bonds of Ilussian society.
"Gorky" means "bitter." The foil
name, "Maxim Gorky," .nay, perhaps,
be read to mean "tla* bitterest of the
bitter." The pseudonym effectively
symbolizes Pyesbkofs attitude to
ward life, for his fiction is distilled es
sence of the disappointed.
He was not at first a Bolshevik, and
he seems only to have Joined the Bol
shevist ranks under pressure. Given
his choice between low diet and high
office, he preferred t(ie latter, which
is one, happily, that does not require
him to take any active part In the per
petration of atrocities. —Living Age.

31G WASTE OF GOOD FOOD
Uudden Cold Snap Trapped Million;: of
Horring in Narrow Neck of
Alaskan Harbor.
What Is declared by Captain Bruun
and officers of the steamship..North
western to be the greatest ffsh tragedy
ever enacted, to human knowledge, oc
curred ut Klawack bay, l'rince of
Wales island, January 30, when at one
stroke more than 2,000,000,0*g00d
sized berring lost ilieir lives, a Ketchi
kan (Alaska) dispatch ro the New
York Sun states. The crew related
their remarkable experience of sail
ing through miles of dead Ilsh.
The.y said Klawack«bay was full of
herring three duys befofe the North
western arrived, when a sudden freeze
caught the Ilsh In the narrow-necked
harbor before they could escape to
sea. The freeze came with great sud
denness and severity and about six
InChes of Ice formed In the harbor.
Millions of herring at the entrance
could be seen dumbly lighting to get
out to sen before the Inclosed waters
were frozen.
"It may sound like a Ilsh story," said
Mr. Bradovich, "but the fact Is that
the greatest chance in tbe world for |
obtaining good fish without a stroke I
of work was lost. For days a few
persons tried to put some of the her
ring away for the summer, but made
no InNiads on the supply. The near
esi Indians, who would have appre- j
elated the fish, wefe IMK) miles away.

Ing out of the harbor, ns the propellet
bad to do the Work of desiccator, and
It barely made a knot an hour."

SURE ONE SIGN IS CORRECT !
Worried Indianapolis Man Is Very
Glad to Let Things Remain
on That Basis.
When Wallace O. Lee, chairman of
the publicity committee for the Oypay
Smith revival arrangements, ordered
the big sign Vn the front of the wood
en tabernacle opposite the city hull,
he told the sign man tu spell It
"Gipsy."
After It was painted find set up,
somebody told Wallace that he was
all wrong—that the first syllable
should have been spelled with a "y"
Instead of an "I." So when Wallace
the other dity ordered 152 signs boost
ing the campaign, to be sent to evan
gelistic churches In the county, h#
told the sign man to spell It "Gypsy."
Then various ministers worried Air.
I«ee by calling him up and saying that
although they were glad to get the
sign, and so on, stlll-r-well, what they
were trying to hint politely was that
what Wallace didn't know itbout spell
ing would have filled a bigger book
than the unabridged.
So the harassed booster dug out a
dictionary and 'lo, It said that the
Word, as a common noun at least,
may be spelled either way without en
dangering the peace and dignity of
the state.
Ar.d then along rrfioes a letter from
the evangelist himself and his signa
ture read "Gipsy Smith."
Well, anyway, one sign Is right.—
