A. -Nqutu natives near Dundee, South Africa, fear that cattle killed during the hoof and mouth disease epidemic will haunt them. The natives have been Christians for several genera tions. Some of the killing was done on Sundays and this, ihey say, will cause the dead ar.rnals to haunt everyone in the vicinity. Wild Raccoon Crashes Into Prison and Remains COLUMBUS, OHIO.-O- hio state penitentiary officials are wondering how their newest prisoner, a wild raccoon, got into the prison. The voluntary but very vicious inmate was found in the prison courtyard and apparently had climbed the' high walls. The raccoon was added to the collection of prison pets which includes: two groundhogs, one posowl, chicken sum, a monkey-face-d hawks, six squirrels, two snakes, five alligators, two dogs, a parrot and numerous cats. Defeat Considered Significant. the unconquered "Henceforth, Chickasaw constituted a serious obstacle to French progress from their gulf colonies to the northwestward. Otherwise they might have established a continuous fortified line west of the Appalachians between Canada and the gulf which would have been very difficult for the English to penetrate. "After the battle of Ackia the Chickasaws, members of that old Creek confederacy, remained in possession of the territory around Tupelo for approximately a century. They were one of the most progressive of Indian tribes, but were unable to stand against the southwest-war- d expansion of the United States. "While primarily concerned with delimiting the site of Ackia, Collins will also try to locate other spots in the neighborhood significant in Chickasaw history." Robot Coin Picker Does Work of 20 Men in Bank SYDNEY, N. S. W. A machine which sorts, counts and tests coins is in use in the head office of a bank here. The invention of a Sydney engineer, the machine takes a mixed lot of silver and copper coins and throws each kind into a separate receptacle, counting them, testing each coin electrically in of a second and rejecting all spurious coins. It works at the rate of about $5,000 worth an hour, and on busy days gets through work which would require about 20 men. Whole batteries of the g machines, invented and installed by the same engineer, are in use in the bank. Six of them count and test about $35,000,000 worth of florins and shillings a year.

Scheerer is putting the finishing touches on his "annex" a second cabin in the woods, which he is building of packing boxes saved over a period of five years. It, too, will be finished and furnished with windows, hardware and furniture from the rubbish pile. In the woods surrounding his cabin there are 12 beech trees on which Scheerer has written the names of his friends who have visited him. He has signed each of the trees with his trade mark a rising sun. The inside walls of the Scheerer cabin are like the pages of a diary, for there he records the simple happenings of his life. ,For the most part these inscriptions deal with the weather and the old man's diet. The important date is June 19, 1938 for that is the day he went downtown the only time in 12 years. "There wasn't nothin' much down there, though," he "I was mighty glad to get home."
