Hunting the Long Dead Mammoth

lly (iarrrtt I Sort Us. There was a time, anywhere from .'.0,000 to lOO.Oi'i y-ars iio, when Krtat numbers of mammoth ranged ulonic the northern borders of Asia and America. At the same time forests of iine abounded in those latitudes, and these afforded the principal nourishment of the hue beasts. Owinc to climatic cbanues. the jdnes disirpearrd. and this led to the extinction of the mammoths. The mammoth was a primitive form of elephant. He was not. on the average, much, if any. larger than the elephants of today, but he was provided with a double coating of fur and hair to enable him to face the Arctic cold, which ho seems to have braved for the rake of the pines. Inside he wore a thick, woolly jacket of a reddishbrown color, and outside a coat of black, bristly hair, that hunir in Ion jr. shncy masses from his llanks. His tusks of Ivory wire, upon the whole, longer thai; those of -xit"in elephants, and more curvd. like .1 pair of hue tlxed calipers, with wh'.ch he could grasp ana swine with'n his easier reach the peniulous branches f the pints. The mammoth wes knov.-n to some of the earliest raves of -.nan in prehistoric times. We are sure of this

It has generally been assumed that the mammoth was hunted and killed by early man. Whether he used its ilesh for food is a question, but he certainly found its tusks useful for making1 implements, and. as we have seen, he sometimes engraved his pictures upon them. Ivory has always been a favorite material for human industry to work upon, and it was employed proportionately more in ancient times than it is today, partly because at present the supply, owing to the gradual disappearance of elephants, is fallin golY. Since the discovery that large numbers of mammoths are embedded in the frozen marshes of Siberia and Alaska, the hunting of their tusks for the ivory market has become a profitable occupation. Mr. liassett Pigby, an Hnglishman. who has recently been hunting for frozen mammoths in Siberia, gives some new facis about them. He refers to the curious fact that the woolly rhinoceros "used to hunt around with the mammoth in those parts of the world." and that its remains are sometimes found with those of its huger companions. The natives of northern Siberia, who believe that mammoths were a kind of gigantic moles dwelling deep underground, and which inevitably perished if they happened to tunnel out into the sunshine, think that the woolly rhinoceros was a big bird, after the htyle of the great roc described by Sindbah the Hailor, and they told Mr. Digby hat the curved horn of the rhinoceros- which he found was the "toe-claw" of tho michty bird.

longest he ever saw measured 12 feet J inches. He measured L'o or I'.O which ran from 9 feet 6 inches to 10 feet C inches, and a few from 11 to 12 feet. The most remarkable thing about these tusks, perhaps, is their variety and beauty of color. A feware a pure, milky white, hut "these have come from many thousand years of cold storage, hacked from a carcass only recently washed out in a spring freshet." Many tusks resemble, in color, stained mahogany, polished near the points. "There are blends of mahogany and white and mahogany and cream. There' are bright blue tusks of steel blue from soil rich in phosphate of iron tusks of walnut and russet and brick red." Mr. Digby even

avers that sometimes combinations of tints are superposed until the surface of a tusk shows the blending of soft, fading colors representing the entire spectrum. That the substance of these tusks should be perfectly preserved, even though the color Is often changed, does not appear in some cases, the flesh of the animals is as fresh as

meat from a cold storage though their bodies have lain there from a time 10 long ago as that when the of Kgypt were built.

In a recent decision of the United States supreme court, where the case fell under the Mann white slave act. Justice Holmes recommended that wo Americans stop muddling about in a mess of rnush-and-sorghum sentimentalities. He did.njt, to be sure, use just that expression, which is, perhaps, a poor tne but my own employing. Instead, suave legal phraseology about abandoning "the illusion that the woman is always the victim" in such a situation as was then under re vie' v. That situation, be it understood, had nothing to do with "white slavery" in the true sense of that much abused term. There was no question of kidnapping little girls, of entrapping innocent young women for immoral purposts a loathely industry" which still lias its well-detined American centers, whatever twiddling "investigators" for smug "foundations" may say to the contra ry. Men or women found guilty of that cancerous traJlic should be given a life sentence to the penitentiary for a crime whose mere mention forces me to dip my pen into a disinfectant before proceeding to a further discussion of Justice Holmes remarks. The case occasioning that remark bore some points of resemblance to a celebrated trial I once attended, where a woman of ZO with some 14 years' t xperience in disposing of herself at the highest market value was involved with a man of . recently risen from frugal circumstances to great wealth. Out of the welter of wantonness disclosed by the trial one fact plainly emerged. The man not the woman

Stale in wui.uiiiii ui uie .i.mo ' slave act." The man not the wornnn was the ictim. Not an "Innocent

victim" to be sure. He had been entangled because the bad in his nature had gone out to meet the bad in her; but he was, none the less, the real victim. Yet the woman's lawyer drew tears from the eyes of soggy sentimentalists as he tremoloed well-worn and most Inept sayings about "betrayed and trusting young girls;" and the jury nodded in sympathetic muddlement. So the woman was set free; one of the jurymen explaining to me afterward that the verdict was rendered "in defense of betrayed womanhood." There was an edge of masculine complacency about the remark, an echo from the man-made centuries when woman was looked upon as a defenseless chattel. s And there is, doubtless some vestige of the came complacency about tho average man today which makes him yield to what Justice Holmes calls "the illusion that the woman Is always the victim;" his sex pride recoiling instinctively from any other assumption. Hut surely women leaders in the feminist movement should not yield, as some do, to this persistent representation of life. For if the woman is. indeed, "always the victim," then it must be granted that she is hopelessly subordinate to man. But we know this is not true. We know, however it may once have been, the woman of today, quite as truly as the man. may say "I choo-e." It was male ascendency which established a double standard of morality for men and women, and women acknowledged their own inferiority when they consented to that double standard. With the rise of the feminist movement, however, has come the righteous demand for that single standard of morality which can only be established by recognizing the approaching equality of the sexes. And here is the place to warn feminist leader? in the ljght of Justice Holmes" remark that they can never cure the world of the ills resulting from a double standard of morality by substituting a double standard of common scne
