Great Shooters of Europe.

In Europe, where the question Of q
game supply does not enter into consid-
Grafton, killing for count is recognized
rs legitimate and sportsmanlike. He is
considered to have made record Of hon
or who has bagged the largest numbers
of birds or other game. Thus we read Of
one Trauttmansdorf - Prince Carl
Trauttmansdorff-w has to his credit
for single days shooting the slaughter
of 500 head of game, with the best bag
Of pheasants, 3O3; of cartridges, 632
Of hares, 416; of rabbits, 63S; of roe
buck, 10; of fallow deer, 20, and of
blackjack, IA, and best years count
Of 10, S33 head of assorted game. An
other record smasher is Earl de Gray,
whose exploits have been duly tabulated
for series of years, from 1867 to 1895.
His pheasants score was l11,119, with
SO, 4Q1 cartridges, 47,460 grouse, a6, TAT
rabbits, and as many hares, 2, 735 snipe,
2,O77 woodcock, 1898 wild duck, 567
deer, 10 buffalo. IL tigers couple OF
rhinoceroses, and 1000 assorted, making
total of 3l6. 500 for the entire period, or
about II, 600 annually. This is record
which the most Industrious market
shooter in this country would needs
work hard to equal In very truth the
noble sportsman must have been mon
omaniac in the field. Yet for all his
slaughter the game supply where he shot
has not been permanently diminished. -

HOW TO JOIN THE CLUB
Saved His Life and Kicked Him.

Perk and Quirk were walking along
the crowded street, feeling very kindly
toward themselves and the rest of hu-
mainly. Just as they reached the mid
die Of crossing one Of those aggravat-
ing individuals who walk one way and
look another stepped directly in front of
a cable car which was rounding the COR
ner. OF course the car had no fender on
it. Nearly everybody in the vicinity
yelled, and naturally the bewildered
man looked in the wrong direction.
Quirk didn't yell, though. He jump
ed to the side of the track, grabbed the
man by the collar and yanked him clear
of the tracks and almost out of his shoes.
Then he gave him another ferocious jerk
to get him out of the way Of an express
wagon, and, getting him at proper range
at the same time, he gave the poor man
kick that must have driven his spine
up into his hat. And with the kick
Quirk reared:
"Confound you, keep your eyes open
when you are on the street.
Quirk looked unutterably savage, but
Perk tottered to the curb, sat down and
laughed until the tears came Then he
said:
"You are the only big enough idiot
on earth to save mans life and then
kick him for it. Chicago Times Her

for this crime you are not likely ever

HI. Weinstock, Esq, Sacramento, Cal.
Dear Sir: Replying to yours of the

scape from becoming a victim of Won
Arnold; second, that he was masquer-
aiding in Sacramento as Baron Won

iner'' as to your visit to me, and, there
fore, could not and did not state any
thing to the Examiner nor does it
quote me as stating the object of your

A Pleasant, Simple, but Safe Enectual
Cure for 1t.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to incurable
The usual symptoms are full or
bloating sensation after eating, accom-
panied sometimes with sour or watery
risings, a formation of gases, causing
pressure on the heart and lungs and
difficult breathing; headache, tickle APP
petite, nervousness and a general
played out, languid feeling.
There is often a foul taste in the
mouth, coated tongue, and If the in
terror of the stomach could be seen it
would show a Shiny infiamed condi-
ton.
The cure for this common and OBJ
stinate trouble is found in a treatment
which causes the food to be readily,
thoroughly digested before it has a time

mucuos surfaces o .fthe stomach.
Tossecure a prompt and healthy diges-
ton is the one necessary thing to do,
and when normal digestion is secured
the catarrhal condition will have disap-
peared.
According to DR.. Harlanson, the
safest and best treatment is TO use after
each meal tablet, composed of Di-
astase, Aceptic, Pepsin, a little Nux.
Golden Seal and fruit acids.
These tablets can now be found at all
