The pleasure of a giraffe-hunt is in
disputtable, but it is one that no real
sportsman will repeat more than twice.
A hard spur and sjambok gallop
through brush and thorn with more
than an even chance of your nag put
ting his foot in jackal's earth, grad
ual overhauling of the giant animals
that are sailing without apparent ex-
srtion IN front OF you, a hasty dismount
unless you are lucky enough to be able
10 shoot from horseback, bullet plant
ed just above the tail and penetrating
through the tough skin into the heart
and lungs, and with crash your game
comes to earth and you are standing,
dripping with prespiration after your
.Wo-mile run, and Outrageously scratch
ed with haakdoorn, owe rthe body OF
what is surely the strangest animal
that ever South Africa can produce.
The trouble is that beyond the chance
of being thrown or of coming in con-
tact with a tree, there is not much dam
ger in the pursuit Of the giraffe. NO
animal could be more gentle or defence
less. You have the thrilling excite
ment of twenty minutes burst, but
you miss what should be the spice or
big-game hunting ng-the risk. All that
you need in giraffe-hunting is good
nag: if possible, on thai has been
lsed to the business. 1t is hard TO keep
an inexperienced horse from boring to
one side when the dlsagreeable smell
of an old giraffe bull comes down the
wind With that solid Martlnl-Henry
bullet-the hollow express ones are not
firm enough TO get far beyond the inch
or inch and half of hrazen hide that
encases these monsters success is al
mos certain. Graffes DO n0l put out
1neir fullest speed unless very hard
pressed They START off at an easy amD-
ing gait, moving the legs on the one
side simultaneously. like an American
PAGER. Their black bushy tails cork
screw over their backs, and their im-
wards at each stride. They do not ap-
pear to be going very fast, bur you will
ind you have to be well mounted TO get
within shooting distance Of them. If
not run down in the nrst TWO miles
they stand a good chance of getting
clean away When going their hardest
hey change their gait into an extraord-
mary sort of gallop, their hind legs
being well straddled out and brought
forward, one on each side, in
in front of the fore legs. 1t Is a Jerky,
convulsive, awkward Eoyement, but
wonderfully effective as u means of get
ting over the ground. Harper s
Weekly.

LOVES BEGGAR.

who is not loved lives not at all,
And knows not either joy or woe;
And lest such fate should him befall
He came beggar, louting low.
~ bend" said he, that ! may nves
I bow before the one prize.
That she the aims / crave may give.
Drawn from the treasury OF her
eyes,
Who begs for love but wastes his
speech
When far too humbly he implores;
He sets too high above his reach
The being whom he thus adores-
And so, though courtly were his ways,
A veil of scorn her visage bore;
Indifferent to his prayers and praise,
She turned the beggar from the door,
The beggar was not overshrewd,
And perfect love had made him
blind;
Not his to see changing mood,
For she is musing on his fate,
Felt pity for the suitor spurned.
And pity turned to love--too late
The beggar never more returned.

THE DuELLING PISTOLS.
The Pistols of Hamilton and Burr said
to BE in a House in Wisconsin.

The Pistols of Hamilton and Burr Said
to BE in q House in Wisconsin.
In the parlor of the Roy homestead,
in Superior. Wis, is the pistol with
which Alexander Hamilton fought
Aaron Burr on the banks of the Hud-
son in the year 1906, and the mate OF
the weapon with which Aaron Burr
took Hamflton's life on that occasion.
The owner of the relic is Margaret A.
Roy. widow of Vincent Roy. Mr.. Roy
was one of Superiors pioneers, and
over twenty years ago, upon the occas-
ion of visit to the town OF a party OF
Southern and Eastern spectators, the
pistol was presented to him by ex-Sen-
ator ]. B. Beck, OF Kentucky, in return
for a favor conferred by Mr.. Roy. Mr.
Beck received the weapon from rel
ative of Col. James Boyle, and subse-
quently loaned it to a friend, who used
it during the civil war. Col. Boyle re-
ceived the pistol, together with its
mate, from Judge Van Ness, who was
Burr's second during the duel with
Hamilton.
The Burr pistol. which was an exact
duplicate of the other, is now owned by
Louis Marshall, son of Col. Thomas
Marshall, OF Vermont. 1t has changed
hands many times, and finally got into
the hands of COL Marshall after pass
ing through the Mexican and civil wars.
Both weapons were marked by Col.
Van Ness to insure Identification, the
Burr pistol with an * to signify
that it had killed one man, and the
Hamilton pistol with the character
oh 1n fy1ifin1c ssA n f(SNR
pistol owned by Mrs. Roy is one OF the
old fintlock, horse-pistol pattern.
Although made of good material and
well finished, it is clumsy looking af-
fair compared with the pistol of to-day
The barrel Is twelve inches long and
carries a two-ounce ball, while the
handle is heavy and extremely difficult

SPRING RUSH
viii soon re Here and Everything win
Need Your Attention.

Need Your Attention.
Now is a splendid time to prepare
for the spring rush No one knows
better than the fruit growers and gar
deners how precious time is in the
spring when things begin to grow and
everything wants attention at once
when the fruit blossom come, If 1t be
profuse, the bees will begin to store, Il
they have been properly wintered, ana
possibly will send out swarms, just at
the time we zre busy every day, early
and late, at our small fruits. vegeta-
bles. potatoes, etc, planting, cultivat-
ing fighting enemies. All, how we are
rushed, and how impatient we DO get
when we are right in the midst OF
busy Job, and the yell comes Ine pees
are swarmingi'
Now, if we have the hive all ready
with section cases, honey board, ana
all complete; frames all arranged VIII
starters of foundation and sections an
filed with their foundations; plenty OF
well-dried smoker fuel, and gooo
smoker convenient we can dispose OF
a swarm in a very few minutes, ana go
about our other work. Some bee-keep-
ers who are of a mechanical turn OF
mind make their own hives, cases, etc.
good buzz saw is almost irdlspens-
able as hives. should be made very
accurately, all cut over one pattern, SO
as to be perfectly interchangeable IN
all parts. A bee hive. to give satlsfac-
ton to the apiarist, den'ands exact
work and should be well made OF good
seasoned humber.
If a man has but a few colonies the
best plan is to purchase all the needed
supplies from a reliable dealer The
best is the cheapest. Well-made and
well-painted hives give better salts
fation, and last twice as long as cheap
ones.
Cheap foundation often contains
paraffin, which is not as acceptable to
the bees as pure wax, and at times
they will gnaw it all down, and then
it will be a total loss, wasting the time
of the bees.
The finest pure white sections make
the honey appear at its best, hence
more salable In selling honey 10
critical buyers l often get two cents
more per pound for that in the finest
sections than that in the culls that
made difference to me OF $2O per
1000 pounds, while the difference In
price of sections was less than 81.

The large lice, which work on the
heads of fowls, cannot be noticed ex-
cept by close and careful examina
ton, as they do not leave the fowls to
go on the walls or roosts. Whenever
any members OF the flock appear
droopy without apparent cause, exam
inc for the large head lice. Grease of
any kind will destroy them, hence a
few drops of linseed oil, melted lard, or
saachine oil, rubbed we'll on the skin
OF the heads and necks, will rid the
hens of them.
