LIVEDLOm ON JHCPE AND WATER But Entombed Miners Did Not Establish Record Surpriseh.as been expressed that th« men rescwdl from the flooded pit near Falkirk, Scotland, were able to exist fx>r nine tlacv's “on -hopeand-water.” > In point o f fact, it was just liecause thpse men had fresh water and did not abandon hope that they not only sur vived their horrible imprisonment, but were actually able to crftwl down to the shaft bottom, unaided, to join their rescuers., For a healthy man a nine days’ fast Is, in itself, no very dreadful ordeal There are Indeed plenty of people who habitually fast at intervals' for from three to sev-eu days simply for health’s sake, observes Henri Pickard in the Cincinnati Enquirer. Not, of course, that there is any com parison bet-ween lying comfortably in bed without food and existing in the pitch darkitess of a flooded coal pit, breathing t»ad» air ’and always under the hideous uncertainty of whether yon will ever get out or not __ Even so, these miners were not s<i badly'off as. a shipwrecked crew in an open boat. The mere fact of having water all around you, yet none to drink, is literally maddening. Yet the survivors from' the Medusa, wrecked in the yeaj- 1876, managed to live through 33 days on a raft, \<1tliout food or water, exposed, too, for mut-li of the time, to a burning sun. (Xf miners the longest entombment nf which we have any record is that of the last stis-vivor from the Courrieres mine in Frtance, after the awful fxpltv sion of .March 6, 1900. He was. in all, 26 days below ground before lipinc rescued. But he had food for the fir^t week of his Imprisonment. Doctors are divided as to how lunji a man can «iist without fnod. I*mf»*s sional fasters, such as Doctor Tanner and Sued, Slave abstained for -in, e\en .10 days on end. and there is a case re ported Ln th-e Lancet of 1S.V? of a ni:iir of sixty-two who refused food fi*r fnur months and! recovered.

Owls, Flying an Flock It Is common knowledge that tawny, barn, and long-eared owls have In creased considerably in numbers In East Lotlii un in recent yea.rs, and there is no doubt that they are, today far more numerous than most people | have -any idea.

We then_ noticed a second owl, and almost immediately a third and a fourth, flftaig* ever the field on our right; indeed, (t seemed that there was a whole flock of them, as we counted as many as six clearly visible against the sky a t the same time. At first I thought that they must be pee wits, ^vtilch often besport themselves thus after darkness, but- as tie birds crossed the rays of the head lamps there was no doubting that titey were owls—tawny or bant, L think the lat ter. Cgrtalnly they wire act long- eared owls. Long-eared owls are, to some extent, gregarious and sociable by disposition —that la, a number of them aaay fore- gathfer irrespective of food or matinf attractions.
