Renowned siuong turf followers the world over, was the racehorse Botafoga, the darling of the Argentina Stud. Though only eight years old, he died recently at Mar del Plata. Not particularly fortunate In hla parentage, as great racers usually are, he nevertheless became a phenomenon of the track. At two years he sold for $25,000 at auction, although he was never good looking. When he raced the horse stretched himself out like a greyhound. He made his debut in 1017, and all the classics fell before his amazing speed. One day wl.en he was not In form and lost to Gray Fox, the event was- regarded In Argentina > quite a national catastrophe. In a subsequent "revenge race" he defeated bis conqueror with perfect ease before the greatest crowd that ever assembled at the Peierino tracks. ' Scientists Baffled. What do the eye spots on butterfiles' wings mean? The naturalists say, frankly: "We do not Enow." it is thought that these eye qppts may have some utilitarian application. They form one of the moat Intricate of all natural designs. The fact that butterflies have been' captured with iheir eye spots pierced, as If from the attack ef birds, has been used as an argument In favor of the view that ftey must-be "protective markings," imitating eyes because birds strike at the eyes of their victims. But this suggestion is hardly regarded as satisfactory.

JEDvEDIAH STRONG SMITH, THE ' AMERICAN ULYSSES j This is a story of a modern Ulysses, i a frontier hero of many wanderings, who died without receiving the fame which was his due, a man whose service to America has been but lately ai jneciated by his countrymen. Jedediuh Strong Smith was his name, and his contribution to history was the first accurate mapping ef the great West. Smith was born In New Yerk in 1799. As a boy he played with the yountf Seneca Indians of Chief Oornplanter's tribe, and learned their lore. He became an expert with the bow nnu inuw, wuicd oe uxerwmro carried on all of his expedition*. Once he brought down a hawk flyli^t about 75 yards above him, and he could drive a shaft to the heart of a buffalo as skillfully as any Indian hunter. In years of wandering Smith crossed the western country on the aouth from the Colorado river to the Fucitlc; he crossed It mldwny from the Rockies to the Pacific, and he traversed It on the north from California to-the Rockies. He visited all* the Important streams from Arizona V..II. - *- - iu iuc i cuunoivuc lUUUUJT, UN M I made accurate notes of all he aw. | This Information was used in correcting the unreliable maps of the day and proved of inestimable value to later explorers. _ Smith's death was heroic, la 1881 he was guiding a wagon train over the Santa Fe trail. The train had taken a short cut around the head of the Cimarron river and soon was lost in a desert country. Water most be found at once. Smith sot out in search of a stream, and finally reached one. While drinking, he was surrounded by a band of Comanches, who determined to have the white man's gun. The Indians signaled peace, and after talking in the sign language for a while, they sncceded in frightening Smith's horse. As it turned, they shot at the scout with arrows, wounding him in the arm. Smith wheeled about, *hg? the chief dead with hia rifle and kfilod two more savages with his pis* j tola. Then grasping his ax, the scout I dsnfrss. okei- ? IA-S rrm^ s. UOJMICU IHIU iUVIT UIUIBL.
