They are of volcanic origin and some of them rise Steeply to a height of 3,000 or 4,000 feet above the sea. They are known. to sailors the world over as the breeding place of the kingbird, that shark of the air and the most voracious of winged creatures, says the New York Times.

Occasionally a tramp ship approaches -the kingbird’s desolate islands. Whalers used to visit them for sea elephants, which ahound on Possession island, the largest of the group. A sea eélephant is a species of walrus, frequently measuring 25 feet in length and 28 feet in circumference, but the bones of one of these leviathans of the southern ocean are picked bare by the veracious kingbirds in a few hours. :

A party of shipwrecked men cast ashore on Apostle island, a cluster of barren rocks at the extreme northwest of the group, 50 or 60 miles from the main islands, constructed a rude tent of freshly killed walrus hides. Within half an hour after it -was erected it was covered with kingbirds, pulling, tugging and tearing at the skins. It was useless to fight them with clubs or stones, because for every one killed a hundred others appeared to take its place. It was not possible to frighten them off. At nightfall they retired to their holes in the rocks, but in the early morning returned to the attack with thousands of reinforcements from the neighboring islands. In a few hours nothing but the bare poles of the tent were left standing on the snow-covered rocks. Every particle of hide and hair had Dbeen devoured. i .

A Telling Blow

Golf to Irvin Cobb has always been a matter of companionship and exercise, not a test of skill or science. He is indifferent to any score he may make on any hole, whether it be a 3 or-a 17. 1 fixed up a mateh one day at Peiham for Cobb with George Duncan and Abe Mitchell. Golf to Duncan is a religion, a literature, an art and a science. When Irvin S. walked up and took his stance the famous Scot almost fainted. He dashed up and changed every detail of Cobb’s game —grip, stance, spread of feet, position of knees and shoulders, head, ankles and the rest of it. |

“Now,” said Duncan, “don’t forget to pivot.” ' The Paducah Phenom took a terrific belt at the ball. - . o “Gosh!” sald Duncan, *you missed it clean!” :

“Nothing of the sort,” said Cobb, “I distinctly saw it flinch.”—Grantiand Rice in Collier’s. S :

Linemen Use Plane

On the snowy plains of Kansas this winter they are beginning to patrol electric transmission lines by airplane. If a line breaks a whole town may be deprived of electric lights, as ‘'was the case in Bucklin during a recent snowstorm, and the time required to make repairs must be cut to a minimum. In the case of Bucklin, after 2 whole night had been lost by automobile emergency crews which couldn’t buck the drifts, an airplane crew flew along 90 miles -of line and back again spotting the break, stopping to repair it and reporting on the condition. of the whole line in two hours and fifty minutes, despite snow and wind. “Airplane linemen” may be used hereafter. ,

Angler’s Mighty Catch

Here is the tale of the largest fish caught with hook and line in New ‘England inland waters in many a year: Frank E. Wells of Milton, Vt., was fishing through the ice on Lake Champlain. A line on which a small perch hook was attached was violently agitated. Wells grabbed it and started to pull. For three hours the excited fisherman struggled without knowing what was on the other end. Then he managed to drag the exhausted fish up through the hole in the ice. It was a sturgeon five feet leng which weighed 78 pounds.—Boston Globe. S
