CASE WILL BE APPEALED.
Government Insists the Pearl River
Is NnNigabIe.

Washington, July 24-Attorney General
Griggs has directed that in the case of
the United States against the supervisors
of Copiah county Mississippi, and the
Virginia Bridge Company, an appeal be
taken from the recent adverse decision of
Judge Niles of the United States Court.
The suit was brought to restrain the de-
PENDANTS from erecting a bridge without
a draw across the Pearl river, on the
ground that it would interfere with the
navigation of that stream. Judge Niles
held that at that point the river was
not navigable, and hence the United
States had no jurisdiction over it, The
government holds TO the contrary, on the
question of jurisdiction, insisting that the
river is navigable at certain portions of
the year and viii contest the matter fur
tner in the United States Circuit Court

MANEATING LIONS.
Tricks of the Savage Beasts in Their
Native JungIes.

When lions become maneaters these IN.
ert and treacherous brutes take no unnec-
essary trouble to catch men, and while
human beings are plentiful none OF them
undertake peri.ous enterprises or proceed
on any haphazard expeditions. They
know what to do and where TO go that
prey may be procured with the least
amount of risk or exertion. Such lion
is well aware of who tlls this cornheld
or that wealie patch. He has informed
himself of how many men accompany the
village herds, where any outlying camps
are situated and how they are guarded.
There is no route by which travellers pro-
coed or traffic is carried on that such an
finals have not studied with reference TO
the facilities for attack they afford and
their own bodily powers. II otherwise
good strategic positions present natural
difficulties the lion not only considers how
these can be overcome, but perhaps prac-
tees his part before hand. Az ali events,
he has been watched while engaged IN
exercises that can only be explained in this
way.
So puny creature as man is when un-
provided With effective implements for Of
Tense stands little chance against such a
foe-an assalant having forty times his
strength, backed by marvellous activity
and an intense passion for carnage I'M
der these circumstances savages can only
shut themselves up or assault their enemy
in large masses. On the other hand these
precautions taken by a murderous lion
might not seem to comport with that bold
and often reckless temper attributed to
this species. But such a discrepancy has
no real existence IL only appears when
judgment is made without taking all the
facts into consideration. This animals in.
teligence, developed in maneaters to IFS
highest point. together with an organic
stealthiness of nature and proclivity to-
ward unexpected attacks and stratagems.
fully accounts for everything a lion dos
in the way of guarding against failure.
