THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY .JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 26, 1913. 4 k WHO’S TO SUFFER LOSS Attorney Genera! to Decide Whether Contractors Must Complete Job in Hawaii Huerta Gets Army Rifles By Germany (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, Dec. 25.—Whether private contractors are to be held re sponsible to complete the government’s $3,400,000 dry dock at Pearl Harbor. Hawaii, is a question Secretary Daniels has called upon Attorney General Mc- Reynolds to decide. The attorney gen eral’s opinion is expected to hold that the contractors must go ahead with the work. llhe upheaval of the bottom of the great dock was the naval tragedy of the year. Designed to be a triumph of naval engineering fhe dock was to be a thousand feet long and so arranged that it could be divided into sections for the docking of vessels of any dis placement, accommodating small craft without flooding the entire structure. The cause of the upheaval was the subject oi an exhaustive report by an engineering expert who decided that de spite the obstacles to be overcome the task could be completed. That brought the navy department face to face with the problem 'of who should stand the loss and Secretary Daniels referred the question to the de partment of justice. Queer Tales From Animat Kingdom The grizzly bear is an American. Next to the polar bear is the largest of the bear faipily. The grizzly is the only American species that does not climb trees, so man is safe from it “up a tree.” Only a few species of bear are able to climb trees; all live on the ground and all are omnivorous; contrary to general belief a bear is naturally cheerful and good tempered. * Elk, deer, buffalo, elephants, and large cats often attack their keepers, but bears that have been properly reared in captivity seldom do so. In their natural state bears hibernate all winter; during this time most of their bodily functions are entirely sus pended and life is sustained by the fat accumulated in summer. The old story of the newly awakened bear being dan gerous is quite fabulous: it eas imme diately after its long sleep. In cap tivity the bear rarely, if ever, hiber nates. and the same is true of bears in tropical countries. The chief reason birds have tails is to enable them to steer while flying; but the flamingo and stork have legs so mucn longer than their tail feathers that they serve as rudders. The flamingo is one of the few birds whose mouth Is upside down; this is because it inverts its head when feeding, and uses its upper mandible as a hook and scoop. It is one of the careful little tricks of nature to pro vide the young flamingo with straight bills until their legs are long enough to go wading; this enables them to feed off the ground. Flamingos build their nests on the ground but in the shape of an inverted cone; this enables them to sit on their nests as one sits on the edge of a ta ble. The llama, called the camel of South America has been used as a beast of burden from prehistoric times. The fa miliar and fine cloth which we call Al paca and Vicuna are woven from the hair of, a species of the llama. The llama has the very unpleasant habit off spitting when enraged or an noyed; that is about its only means of /defense; its cud and saliva have a most unpleasant odor, and thus when one approaches a llama in a zoo he should have a care. Llamas are fine swim mers, and drink freely of sea water without injury. Naturalists assert that when face to face with death the llama will leave Its companions and pick out a particular spot for a “dying ground.” No, it is not water; it is fat. The common belief, that water is stored in the camel’s extra hump is based on the general knowledge that he can go a very long time without either food or drink: this is because the camel is na tive to the desert; in two respects it is physiologically fitted for work on the desert; its feet are webbed and expan sive so that it travels easily on loose sand. It can contract its nostrils so that, it can breathe in a sandstorm which often is fatal to human beings and all other \ animals. The camel is disagreeable, quarrel some. complaining and vindictive. He has two humps and the dromedary has only one hump. Monkeys see stereoscopically, i. e., two images are seen at the same time, thus giving more than a single view; this enables them to judge more accu rately of objects than other animals can. Monkeys have four hands. Scientists assert that a monkey has no feet; they call his four legs hands; the presence of the fingers and thumb is what gives the monkey his wonderful dexterity and agility. Monkeys do not live long in captivity, and thus the population of a monkey house is constantly changing. The hyena, “the scavenger of the east,” eats and digests bones. He is tolerated in the native settlements, as a “desirable citizen,” but is a coward ly, skulking cur. The hyena has the strongest jaws and digestion of any animal and cracks the largest bones left by other animals to extract their marrow, and without fur ther mastication swallows them almost whole, and—lives. One species, the striped hyena, is called the “laughing hyena” because its cry resembles a hysterical human laugh. The tiger, next to the lion, is the largest of the cat animals; in general strength it is the lion’s equal; in agility, ferocity and blood-thirstiness it exceeds him. Tigers live in close proximity to man in some sections of India, and are not dreaded or dangerous until they be come old, when, being unable to cap ture their prey so easily, they attack human beings. The worship of the tiger by some of the sects of India is based on the fear of the great cunning and resourcefulness of the tiger. The zebra is a beautiful wild ass of Africa; there are several varieties, dif fering only in the slightest respect. The cuagga, one variety, has become extinct within the last few years. The zebra would b e especially valu able in Africa if it could be domestica ted, as it is immune from the “Tsetse fly” which induces the fatal sleeping sickness and kills most other animals; but the zebra is tamed with great success, and so it is comparatively use less. Clean up the garden, remove and burn all weeds and trash. They harbor insects through the winter. American Arms, Denied Direct Importation, Are Shipped to Hamburg and Then to Mexi co—Jap Guns Used, Too, WASHINGTON, Dec. 25.—American army and ammunition for Huerta, de nied direct exportation to Mexico, are being shipped from the United States to Hamburg, Germany, and reshippped to Mexico. Thi*s became known to offi cials here today, when it was found that a large shipment recently had been made by that route. In connection with an order for arms for the Huerta government in Japan advices here say the munitions are ri fles discarded by the Japanese army recently in favor of a new type. AT though manufactured originally in the imperial Japanesee armoris, like the old Springfield muskets and the Krags which followed them in this country, the arms were disposed of by the gov ernment to private dealers and it is un derstood that in such a manner the Mexican government has been able to secure them. It was I said a,t the state department today that contrapts for the delivery of the guns were made last April before the United States government had an nounced its policy of refusing recogni tion of the Huerta government and that there was no warrant for protest against t h © deliveries now.

NO ACTION ON GEORGE NEW YORK, Dec. 25.—Trustees of the George Junior Republic of Free- ville, N. Y., will take no action on that part of the recent report of the state board of charities recommending that William R. George, founder of the in stitution, be removed from all partici pation in its affairs. The trustees take the ground that Mf. George officially severed his connection with the repub lic in 1908. SUES Oil. COMPANY (By Associated Prees.) WASHINGTON, Dec. 25.—-The govern ment’s brief against the Mid-West Oil company in a case involving large areas of petroleum land was filed today in the supreme court. The suit involves an order by President Taft withdrawing petroleum lands in Wyoming and Cali fornia from entry to reserve an ade quate supply of fuel oil for the future use of the navy. MOTORCYCLIST HURT SAVANNAH, Ga., Dec. 25.—John Pent!, of Canton, O., cne of the en trants in the motorcycle race to be run over the Savannah automobile race course on Christmas day, was seriously injured this morning and will be unable to appear in the big event. Penti got in a block of a vehicles at a turn in the course and ran into a ditch, while going at 60 miles an houY. He fell with the machine on top of him. While serious, his injuries are not fatal. NO SANTA THIS YEAR FOR CHILDREN IN MEXICO MEXICO CITY, Dec. 25.—-Feeble ef forts have been made to arrange holi day festivities in Mexico City this year. Governor Corna, of the federal district, has enlisted a few of the city’s fash ionable women to assist him in plan ning a kermess in one of the public parks, but even this show of holiday spirit is half apologetio, it being an nounced that the proceeds are to go to ward buying clothing for the poor. Merhcants in Mexico annually dress their windows and stores to attract the gift buying public, but unlike the stores in the United States, the rush is not over uutil one, week later. Only a few Mexicans buy presents and distribute them on Christmas, but all of them want to give tokens of their love and friendship on New Year’s day. This year the merchants have made little effort to capture the holiday mon ey. Sentiment has dulled the buying spirit and war has drained the money bags. As a people the Meexicans are impoverished. Merchants who had placed orders early i n the year with European toy houses have generally cancelled them because of the increas ed duty on all importations. Such shop windows as are decorated with holiday goods this year contain only the left-over goods of a year ago. FALLS OFF WHARF. WHILY PLAYING CARDS (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) SAVANNAH, Ga.. Dec. 25.—While playing a game of cards on the edge of the wharf, Paul Young, a white rnan, lest his balance and fell into the river, drowning himself. Frank Fitch, a sol dier, was also pulled into the river, but he was saved. Three other players remained on the wh^rf. When Fitch was rescued he was ir. an unconscious condition, and it was some time before he could be revived. The body of the drowned man was not recovered. m Correspondent Sawyer Tells How Operators at Pacific's Largest Wireless Station En joy Yuletide While Guarding Nation's Commerce at the "Graveyard of the Pacific” BY E. O. SAWYER. NORTH HEAD, Wash., Dec. 25.—The whole wrold is saying “Merry Christ mas” at North Head tonight. Here, in the naval radio station, the most powerful on the western edge of America, six operators, relieving each other every hour, are pounding out greetings. Outside a forty-mile gale Is roaring through the pines on the head. The North Pacific beating on the rocks 200 feet below sends sheets of spray into the air, drenching the little group of buildings, which house the lighthouse keepers, the operators, and “Old Storms” Kelliher, weatherman. “I’ve been relaying ‘Merry Christmas’ from Panama to St. Paul, Alaska, from Arlington, Va., to that Jap liner three days out for Yokohama, and from Key West to Honolulu, to be relayed on to Manila,” said Operator Pruit. “Oh, it’s great, this Christmas spirit. You can tune In on any operator in I reach tonight and you’ll find hipi pound- | ing out ‘Merry Christmas’ to Dear Some- I bodies somewhere else. But in spite of the storm and the extra work helping one half the world j send the season’s greetings to the other j half, North Head is having a little cele- , bration on its own hook. “Governor” Pesonen, the head light keeper, has thrown open his house for a big spread given by the boys of the wireless to their wives and sweethearts. Down at the lighthouse right on th6 edge of the head, I joined Trenberg, the assistant keeper, in his narroW cell just below t the light. He was peering through a spray-drenched pane, that had been rubbed with glycerine to keep it trans parent, across the terrible Sand Spit to where Columbia’s lightship’s beacon danced wildly on the towering seas. Beyond, three blotches of lights, told of steamers hove to outside the bar, wait ing for the day to “cross in.” As the night wore on the gale in creased, and the keeper leveled his night glass to westward and swept the ho rizon, looking for little twinkling lights, that would tell of vessels running before the storm.* Over at the weather station “Old Storms” who has seen seventeen wrecks around North Head excused himself and “went on watch.” He has telephonic connections with the life saving stations—four (if them grouped around Columbia—and many a time his keen eyes have been the first to see the signal of distress. Chief Operator McAfee quietly drift ed away from the “Governor’s” and joined “Texas” who was at the key again. “It’s nights like this, we hear the S- O. S.,” said “Texas.” “They’re making heavy weather of it out there. Door stove in by a sea half an hour ago, on the Frisco beat. Two of the crew swept the full length of the deck, but they managed to save themselves by [grabbing the rail. A Dollar line freighter lost a boat hue al) hands are safe. “It’s funny the different kinds of weather the^ have, all at once. Not a breath of air down at Panama to night, and a liner outside Frisco two days reports the sea smooth as glass. “Here it’s so rough that two of the lightship’s crew are seasick and up at Cape Flattery a tug is looking for a coaster in distress and the cutter Manning is hove to in the gale standing by a square rigger that’s water logged and rolling her yards under.” In the wee small hours the party at the “Governor's” broke up, the oper ators returned to quarters and the keep er’s wife pressed all the spare beds into service for the guestg. Just before morning , the gale in creased to a hurricane. Combers moun tain high on Sand Spit showed ghostly white in the half light and a sprinkle of ash along the eastern horizon told of the coming day. The keeper doused his light and as the gray turned to pink the wind slack ened. Suddenly the storm was over. “The Manning has the water logged square rigger safe inside,” reported the operator, “and the coaster is O. K. in Neah bay. “I got the last of the ‘best wishes message off at 5:30.” GROWING BROOM CORN The principal crops of broomcom are raised in Kansas, Oklahoma, and southern Illinois, although this crop will grow in other sections of the coun try where soil and climate conditions are favorable. It Is a profitable crop as the price per ton for the brush usually ranges $50 for the lower grades that are dam aged by weather, and up to $150 and over for the very best. In the southwest it is becoming more important as a foliage crop and it is used to a considerable extent after the brush has been removed. The seed has small feeding value. The two best types of broomcom grown in the southwest particularly is the dwarf and the standard. The dwarf is much liked because it grows only from four to six inches high with a brush of from twelve to twenty inches long, however, this type is better suit-, ed to the semi-arid regions and to the uplands of the broomcom section in the southwest. The dwarf is used a great deal in southern Illinois and oth er middle states where it is grown in small quantities. ' j The soil should be plowed in the fall or early in the winter so that it will retain as much moisture as possible. About two weeks before planting the land should be disked and harrowed, and if necessary, harrowed a second time before planting. Broomcom is a good sod crop. V . Broomcom plants are very tender and make the most rapid growth in warm weather. They will not stand the cold of early spring like corn.' The seed will not rot before germinating, or if the plant germinates the growth will be retarded by continued cold When large areas are planted the most convenient way is to divide the field into sections of about ten acres each and plant at intervals of about a week. The crop demands prompt at tention, and if this system of planting iSi followed, there is npt so fuch dan ger of damage to the brush from rain, or beeming too ripe. In case farm hands are scarce the scarcity is not so keenly felt, for there is not a very large crop that deinands attention within a period of a few days. A few hands can take care of com paratively large fields, and it is much more convenient than to plant the whole field on a single date. The method of planting is about the same as for kaffir corn. Plant in rows about three feet apart, and four to five inches apart in the row. The standard due to its large growth, is planted in rows about three and a half feet apart. FOR TERMINAL INTEREST St, Louis and San Francisco Road Appeals for New Orleans Property (By Associated Press.) NEW YORK, Dec. 25.—-Suit against the Southern Railway company brought by the St. Louis and San Franfcisco railroad to recover a half-interest in the New Orleans Terminal company was argued today in the supreme court. The New Orleans Terminal company is cap italized at $20,0p0,000. Papers in the action showed that it was organized secretly by the two railroads in 1903 when they were rivals for the business of the southwest and for terminal fa cilities at New Orleans. They agreed to divide the rental charges equally. Recently the St. Louis and San Fran cisco went into the hands of a receiver and when it could not meet its share of the obligation its half-interest in the terminal company was forfeited under the agreement to the situation. The pe titioners asked that the forfeiture se curities be restored and credited on its debt. Francis Lyde Stetson, who ap peared for the Southern, characterized their proposal as “an outrageous piece of effrontery.” Decision was reserved. Living Christmas Tree For McDonald Folk; Stands on Qwn Roots M’DONALD, Pa., Dec. 25.—McDonald residents claim this small town is one of the few, if not the only town or city in the country to have a living mu nicipal Christmas tree. Residents de cided to follow the lead of Chicago, New York, Washington, Pittsburg and other large municipalities. A large native pine tree stands on a vacant lot near the center of the town.

Eivens, whose body was found here last night with the head blown off, came to his death by a shotgun wound at his own bands, according to a ver dict of the coroner’s jury today. A whip had been broken in two and inserted between the trigger and the trigger guard’ so that by pushing down or the whip the gun could be dis charged. As the whip was attached to the gun when found, this is given as the means by which the weapon was discharged. Biven’s funeral was held at Perry today. OUTLAW SEALED IN MINE; vNO SIGN OF HIM IN WEEKS Many Believe Lopez Escaped Before Attempt to Smoke Him Out BINGHAM, Utah, Dec. 25.—If Ralph Lopez, slayer of six men, still is in the Utah-Apex mine, where he took refuge on November 27, he is securely sealed up and will be held a prisoner there until after Christmas. Not a sound has come from the mine since December 14 when heavy bulkheads were erected in the tunnel mouths to prevent a dash for liberty. Although Sheriff Smith was confident today that the desperado was either dead or alive in the mine, many be lieve he escaped shortly after sniudge3 were lit on December 1 to asphyxiate him, and that the mj^stery of the mine will not be cleared until the bulkheads are removed and the workings searched for the gunman’s body. Other than the stories of miners who said they had encountered Lopez and talked with him, there has been nothing to indicate Lo pez’s presence in the mine since Novem ber 30, after he killed two deputies in the Andy tunne. The pursuit of Lopez began on No vember 21, after he had killed a Mexi can. Before the day ended he had kill ed the chief of police and two deputy sheriffs.
