PRESERVING AFRICAN BIG GAME
British Government Win Protect the
 Fauna of Africa.

British Government Will Protect the
 Fauna of Africa.
 With reference to the international action which the government has in view for the preservation of the big fauna of Africa, I have had the oppor- tunity of hearing the opinion of one of the greatest living authorities on the subject This individual has passed the greater part of his life in the dis triets of Africa affected by the legisla- tion in force and prospective for pro- hibiting the killing of big game. He as sures me that all the laws in operation fail to achieve the purpose in view in the localities where the natives are al- lowed to carry guns. Tn British East Africa, where the whites are strictly forbidden to shoot big game without authority, the natives are allowed to kill indiscriminately and without check everything they come across. In Mashonaland and Matabeleland, on the other hand, since the disarmament of the natives there has been a percep- tfble increase in certain species, and this increase is likely to gradually be- come more marked as time goes on and the regulations are enforced. Antelope Of different kinds have lately been seen in the neighborhood of Buluwayo. which it had been thought had com- pletely disappeared from the country, and there is reason to believe that in Rhodesia the danger of extinction of many of tho cnpefac which nf Cpo t{v,,o was real, had been checked if not alto- gether averted.-Birmingham Post.

 TATE
COMMERCE COMMISSION

Laws-A Timely Communication
 Of the Pine Bluff Commercial
 League.
 The Pine Bluff Commercial League has addressed a timely and inter- estfng communication to the later State Commerce Commission, at Washington, D. .. From the letter which is signed by President Fred Fox and Secretary E. D. Russell, it will be seen that these gentlemen are ever on the qui yive In the in terests which redound to Jefferson county. They do not desire tbat business should be hampered nor the interests of this city jeopardized in any manner by any means, be they what they may We publish the letter ln full. It is as foI- lows:
 PINE BLUFF, 7 Rk., Nov. 1899- Interstate Commerce Commission, Washington, D. G.,
 Gentlemen:-Ia the St. Louis Re public under date of November the 14th, 1899, there appeared an article from its Washington correspondent giving sn account of the decision of the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion in the case against the St. Louis aud San Francisco Railway Compa- ny, wherein it is held that the said company is iE violation of the rules of the Commission ia charging higher rate of freight on live poul- try in car load lots from MarshfeId, Missouri to Chicago thaa from Springfield, Missouri aud other more distant stations on their line.
 Our attention has been drawn es- pecially to this decision of the Com mission because we have reasons similar to those of the Marshfeld shippers for complaining against the St. Louis Southwestern and Mis- souri Pacific railway companies and their eastern connections.
 
 The facts in our case are about these: The rate of freight Gas charged by the companies mention ed) on frst-class merchandise from New York and other eastern sea board points to Pine Bluff, Arkansas, in less than car load lots is $1.50 per 100 pounds, while the rate of freight on the same class of mer- ehandise and under substant italy similar circumstances and eondi- ons, from New York and other eastern seaboard points to Shreve- port and Monroe, Louisiana, which cities are about 185 miles more dis tant than Pine Bluff, is only $1 10 per hundred pounds.
 We contend that the rates charged from New York and other eastern seaboard points to Pine Bluff are unjust and undue, and in themselves unreasonably high, and discrimination in favor of Shreye- port and Monroe and against Pine Bluff; that the said iscrimination is a great injury to the commercial interests of Pine Bluff, and that the railway companies herein accused are in violation of the rules of the interstate Commerce Commission, in that they are charging a greater compensation for the transporta- tion of like kinds of merchandise under similar circumstances and conditions of the shorter distance from New York and other east tern seaboard points 10 Pine BfaG, than for the longer distance to Shreve. port and Monroe, o7er the same lines and in tbe same direction, the shorter being included in the lon. ger distance.
 Whereof this Commercial League, on behalf of the commercial. inter. ests of Pine Biud, pays for the necessary aud proper relief.

Wild Animals l Have known.

The author of wild Animals 7 Have
Known" Ernest Seton Thompson, has made
a very readable book out of ordinary ma
terals, at least out of materials within the
reach of almost any close observer and
sympathetic student Of nature But right
there is where Mr.. Thompson's superiority
comes in, for very few persons possess his
faculty for close observation and patient,
loving study of nature The fact that he
is naturalist to the government of Mani
toba is sufficient guarantee of his technical
knowledge This book is a collection OF
stories about animals; the author calls them
personal histories of animals he has known.
There are eight Of them, each one about
different animal of distinct type, of which
the author says: They lived the lives l
have depicted, and showed the stamp of
heroism and personality more strongly by
far than it has been in the power of my
pen to tell" The animals depicted are
wolf. a crow, a rabbit, a dog, a fox,
mustang, another dog and partridge. The
author says they are true stories, and they
read like it. They naturally suggest
common thought, or, some might say,
moral 1t is that human beings and ami
mails are kin. Man has nothing that the
annals have not at least Vestige of, and
animals have nothing that man does not n
some degree share. The book is very appro-
priately illustrated by Mrs. Grace Gallatin
Thompson, wife Of the author. Charles
Scrihner'S Sons.
