It might have been' merely the nemesis In baseball that he scored the. only two rung in yesterday's contest against them. ; The Greensboro Industrial News can't say bow that Fulenwider walked McKevItt to bring down his batting average. He brought it down natural means this rime. by NooJln -would have raised his bat ting average - yesterday if Anthony had not been playing left field. But h kept two others from raising theirs by playing right Held himself. There is no feeling of unkindness here toward Anderson for winning over Greenville.

The realisation of imminent perils from the inland waterwava of the provinces has led China to adopt such means as seem most available and practicable for the moce, adequate protection of her riverine - system. Provinces that have hitherto had no special provision for policing by wa ter partol are to Have their rivers and other navigable channels Inland guarded alike for the suppression of piracy and also with a view to pre vent the smuggling Into the Interior of arm and munltlona of war.

' '- To aay that the big gray timber wolf can be tamed Is to run the risk of being branded a nature faker. So many ranchers, hunters, plains men and miners have made the at tempt and failed that few believe It to be possible. ;. ; ' Little Susan Ross Cobb, of Albu querque, N. M.. had two pet wolves. Jack and JUL widely known through out the Territory as "the only tame gray wolvea In America' A few montha ago Jack ahowed slgna of surliness, and aa a precautionary measure Mr. Cobb had him shot, not desiring to . run any "risks Jill Is now more than two years old. larger than any Newfoundland dog and of a much more friendly .disposition than could be expected of an animal having- her pedigree Her little mistress Is accustomed to play with her aa familiarly aa other children play with big house dogs, but strangers witnessing the ungainly gambols of the fierce looking pet cannot rid themselves of the fear that aome day her savage nature may reaaaert Itself. Sometimes Mr. Cobb takes her for a walk through the atreeta of Albu querque, leading her . by a heavy chain. All goes well unless a stray cat happens to cross their path; when that happena It requlrea all Mr. Cobb 'a strength to hold the wolf. She pays no attention to doga being accustomed to the fellowship of Mr. Cobb's hunting dogs. ' Jack and Jill were ajught In the "mallpals" of lava beds of the Rio Grande Valley when only a few weeka old with five othera, which were killed. Theae two were given to Mr. Cobb, who resolved to make the experiment of trying to tame them. It la believed that Jill the survivor of the pair, la the only really tame gray wolf In the entire country. MISSION OF A TINY FISH. - woman, Mrs. P Gtadwonv carried oft the honora..

To Ielroy Mosquito Kggs and Save Inhabitants or Malarial J legion a. Chicago Tribune. C. Kendrlck Gibbons has dis covered that all the poola and swamps In Barbados are stocked witn swarms of millions, a tiny fish which gets Its name from Ita vaat numbers and which feeds on the larvae of the mosquito. Some specimens have been got to England successfully and flourished there in the insect house at the xoologlcsl gardens. Mr. Gibbons haa proposed that the mlllons be Im ported Into malarial districts, and his suggestion haa been acted upon with happy results. The health board of Antigua, another . Island, being convinced of the useful part played by theae fish In consuming mosquito larvae, haa arranged for their ayatematlo distribution through out the ponds and streams of , the Island. Like tidings come from Jamaica, whither a consignment of the fish waa sent not long ago. The secre tary of the agricultural society there writes tlaM the -.tanks at a certain hotel are full of them and that h? has been Informed that there haa been a marked dlmunltlon of fever round about, the millions evidently accounting for the mosquito larvae. They have also been sent to Colon and British Qulana. It la suggested that these useful fish get a trial In the malarial regions of Africa If. like the malarial mosquito, the in sects which carry the terrible dis eases which are endemlo there pasa the larval stage of their existence In water. The Swedish consul at Frankfort haa discovered another small . flah named the blue eyed, which feeds on mosquito larvae. At the request of th Italian government some are to be sent to the Campagna, where so much haa been done In recent years to diminish malaria. The Davis White Sulphur Springs on MDDENITE, N.
