Penctra ton.
Something for sportsrncn to consider
seriously, If they intend to get one of
the new 30-caliber army rifles, is the
great penetration of the bullets. One
of the bullets would kill man through
a four-foot spruce tree. or q COW mile
and more away. No ordinary tree can
be depended on to stop one of these bull
let's, and it might easily travel half q
mile through dense woods and hit man
far out of sight with deadly effect.
Field and Stream says that the next
legislatures of our great game states
should pass a law prohibiting The use
OF a jacketed bullet, because of the dan
ger to human beings. Another argu-
ment it offers in favor of such II law W i'll
have great influence OH the men who do
not wish to wound without killing the

OF all members of the royal family
the duchess of Fife is the one who dis
likes publicity the most, and probably
no other princess goes into public SO
often without being recognized. The
duchess is extremely fond of walking
and does most of her shopping on foot.
and as she generally wears thick veil
her identity is seldom revealed. Her
great royal highness does not care about
festivities and particularly dislilkes the
official ceremonies of the court, such as
drawing-room and state concerts. Tho
duchess is never so happy as when she
is in the pursery with her two little
girls, and, indeed. il may truly be said
that she inhcrts all the home instincts
of her mother, princess of Wales. The
duchess, like her sisters, Princesses Vic
toria and Maud, is good needlewoman,
and has knowledge of cooking such as
would astonish a good many middle
class housekeepers.-Tit Bits.

THE QUALLA RESERVE.
1t IL the Home of an Independent IndiaI
Trihe.


Tribe.
In the western part of North Caro-
lima is perfectly -organized republic,
independent of both state and nation
al governments. 1t is known as the
Qualla Reserve and is the home of about
1000 of the Cherokee Indians belong
ing to the eastern branch. The re-
serve, says IIarper's Round Table, has
an area Of $4,000 acres, or so square
miles, of the richest valley land of the
state lying along the Ocona, Lufta and
Soco creeks. The president of the lit
tie republic is elected every four years.
He receives n salary of $500 year, but
when at Washington on business for
the republic he gets four dollars a day
extra. He is called chief, but none but
n Cherokee of more than 35 years Is
eligible for the craftsmanship. When
he is absent his duties are performed
by an assistant chief, whose salary is
$3.50 year. The chief has cabinet
of three secretaries and the congress
comprises two delegates from every
100 members of the tribe. All Chero-
kee males of 16 and all white males who
have Indian wives have the right to
vote. The constitution provides for
the maintenance of public school IN
which both English and Cherokees are
taught. The inhabitants of the reserve
are intelligent, fairly well educated,
law-abiding and Industrious.

You also belong to the small II nority
OF one out of every ten persons il your
left eye is stronger than your right.
AS rule, just as people are riglit7hand-
ed, they are right-eyed.
This is probably due to the generally
greater use of the organs of the right
side of the body, as, for example, n
sportsman, using his right arm and
shoulder, uses his right eye to sigh his
gun, thereby strengthening it with en-
ercise.
Old sea captains, after long. use of the
telescope, find their right eye much
stronger than the left. The law'is con-

UNPROTECTED GAME.
Suggestions for Sportsmen Who Want to
Shoot Near Cities.

Shoot Near Cities.
A good many shooters are puzzled to
know how they can get practice for
bird-shooting near the cities during
close seasons without paying for prac-
tice ut the traps.
There are several kinds of birds which
fly in such manner as to require skill
in the killing and are not protected by
law at any time. OF course, a small
gauge gun is best for such practice, as
IL takes more skill to kill with it than
with big gun, and the more skill re-
quired the Letter the practice.
The Eingfisher is rapidly -darting
flyer, rather shy and hard to kill. With
2S-gaIge gun II shooters abilities
would be well tested.
The English sparrow, if put up badly
scared, VII give considerable sport,
and the man who can get three with two
shots out of small flying flock may
regard himself as good shot. OF
course, a man wouldn't aim at the center
of the flock, and pull. He aims at par
ticular birds, and. if he misses the ones
aimed at. he calls he shot miss. Red
winged and crow blackbirds fly rap
idly, when their nests are rot near by.
4 They are not protected, and may Ire
/, found n Iartly wooded pastures.
Some srortsmcn may object to this as
being useless slaughter, and it would
4 be if the birds were thrown away. He
| would dress them all, except the king
(, fishers. which taste tishy, and the pot.
\ pie they make would be followed by
| another before long. The English spar.
lows make fine stew, as the flesh is al.
ways hard and sweet.

If those who saw the grandmother

Able Robin, chaplain in Rochambeau's
army during the revolution, wrote Of
American women in 17s2: "They are
tall and well-proportioned, their feat
ures are generally regular, their COM
plexions are generally fair and without
color. At 20 years of age the women
have no longer the freshness of youth.
AT IS or 40 they are wrinkled and de-
crepit."
And Chevalier Louis Felix de Bear
your, after praising the beauty of
the American women to the skies, says:
"At the age of 25 their form changes,
and at 30 the whole of their charms
have disappeared" These observers
were not mere hasty travellers, but had
lived here for years, and their verdict
is that the women of nearly 100 years
ago showed a fragile beauty and early
decline which this end of the century
damscl, with her athletic record and
her prolonged youth, would scorn.

promising to stand him drink when

TIES OF BROTHERHOOD.
They Arc Often Very irasome, Says Nov
eIist Eoweiis.

elist Howeils.
Perhaps one reason why people dis
like the notion of human brotherhood
so much is because the ties of kindred
are often made so irksome. Society
holds you to account for your brothers
behavior, and even for his character, as
if you had invented Il. or at least IA
sored it; and his children can bring your
children to shame by their misconduct,
though they may never have seen one
another.
1t is hardly enough, on the other
hand, that you receive a sort of reflected
glory from your brothers excellence or
celebrity; you are then expected to live
up to him, and that may be another
hardship if you have not his talent or
temperament.
You feel that you are fifty answerable
for your son, in measure, though his
great-grandfather on the other SIDE, if
he could be got at, might sometimes
be much more justly made to suffer;
but you do not feel that you are fifty an
swerable for your brother, and you feel
that it is cruel of society to hold you SO.
If lie is stupid or tiresome, people will
shrink from you, as if you partcok of his
character because you partalie of his
origin. Often you do rartake of his
character. Brothers are often alike;
hut often they are intensely unlike in
| tastes, habits, manners, dispositions,
Compartments. Often you shall be truly
/ the brother of man whom you have
met rather late in life, and whom you
| like because he is of kindred nature,
while in your heart you may fail to like
the brother who is merely of kindred
origin. Yet if one allowed the brother
OF ones blood to come to want or dis
grace, society would hold one infamous
If it were the brother of ones soul, so.
ciety would have nothing to say.-W
