Taking Eskimo Census. The ‘"work"* ahead was to find out how many Eskimos and other human beings lived along the barâ€" ren coast of Hudson Bay, between Fort Churchil} and Chesterfield Inâ€" let.â€"It was only one small end of the gigantic task of making an offiâ€" cial Government census <f all huâ€" man life in the 800,000 square miles of wilderness and Polar barâ€" ren between Hudson Bay and the Great Bear, on the east and west, and the fiftyâ€"eighth degree and the Arctic Ocean on the. north and south, The work was begun more than two years ago, but it isn‘t comâ€" pleted yet, except in the 100,000 square miles along the west shore of the great bay. ; | _Just then the jaguar let his tail| drop. In a second the pigs had laid ! hold4 of the vnlucky appendage, and | had pulled the beast into the midst | of them. _A terrible battle ensued.| [From t‘i‘me to time the massive yelâ€" low body of the jaguar would rise| above the rolling herd of pi«s, and! his paws could be seen dealing out| 'deud!y blows on every s‘de.

He had been literâ€" allv torn to pieces and devoured by his vicious foes, and nothing was left of him except a few scraps of skin and hair, s â€""Pigs !" exclaimed Elliott. ‘"Roast 'porlg for supper !" The jaguar, with his tail well up in the air out of reach of the foe, was tottering about on the top of the antâ€"hill, with is four feet close together, and turning first in one direction and then in another, to meet successive attacks. "Till the pigs get tired of waiting and go away, or the jaguar gets tired of his uncomfortable position, and makes a dash through the herd,"" replied Lopez. 9@ "Hâ€"w long is this going to last 1‘ said Elliott. "Come on!‘‘ was the only comâ€" ment of Lopez, and he led the way, in the bright moonlight, toward a litt‘e open space among the pines. In a few minutes they came to the edge of the clearing, and there they saw, not one pig, but a drove of fifty or sixty, all furious with rage, and vainly endeavoring to get at a jaguar that was sitting in fear and trembling on the top of an antâ€"hill, about five feet above the ground. ‘‘Don‘t fire,‘‘ said Elliott, ‘"Let‘s wa‘it a minute. We haven‘t got too much ammuntion, and we can‘t afâ€" ford to waste any." Buddenly they heard, close at hand, a tremendous uproar of grunting and squeaking. An Explorer Describes a Baitle Beâ€" tween Them and a Jaguar. The wild pigs of Central and Bouth America have a reputation for ferocity and indomitable pluck that any forest creature might envy. They travel in large droves, and wellâ€"informed hunters know that they are exceedingly â€" dangerous enem‘es to meet. Here is a pig story from Mr. J.

It is mow generally believed that submarine earthquakes are the true eause of these convulsions. Beéfore this part of the ocean was as thoroughly sounded ard surveyâ€" ed as it is now, these phenomena were attributed to the presence of unmarked sandâ€"banks and rocky shoals, and the old charts .were marked accordingly. But it must have agtonished the mariner someâ€" what to find that he got no soundâ€" ings with his deepâ€"sea lead immediâ€" ately after experiencing one of these shocks. These and similar phenomena are ‘requently observed in this part of the ocean. Often a ship reports that she has experienced a violeat shock, similar to that which is felt when a rock is struck Sometimes & great rumbling is heard, like that of. a heavy chain running through the hawseâ€"pipes, and the vessel quivers like a leaf in the wind. At another time, in emooth water, a vessel has been known to heel over suddeniyv. as if she had run on a sandâ€"bank. One investigator declared that he saw the sea abovt h*lf a mile from his vessel suddenly disturbed. For about two minutes it boiled up vioâ€" lently as from a subterranean spring. Throughout the day there were observed great patches of disâ€" colored water, which had exactly the appearance of extensive shoals. Phenomena on Line Botween Maâ€" deira and Brazil.
