DR.. John Watson gives us, in the
March McClure's, an impressive and H.
Eliminating account of the beginning OF
Christ's active earthly ministry be-
ginning so unpretentious and simple, as
Dr. Watson's account forcibly brings
out, that only the few who could ap-
preciate its divine exaltation and sin
cerity at all apprehended its universal
import. In illustration of the paper
there are beautiful color pictures OF
The Testimony Of John the Baptist,

Lion Cubs Are Cheap.

The Importation of lions has almost
ceased because it is cheaper and easier
to breed them in captivity. Formerly an
| importer of fine lions could calculate upon
getting 5000 for a good specimen, but
| to-day young lions bred in captivity are
almost a drug on the market. The only
demand for imported lions is 20 keep up
| the stock of the breeding ones or for
very large, powerful creatures, for 1t is
noticeable that the tendency In the cage
breeding is for the animals to degenerate
| in size and ferocity. Tigers do not take
| as kindly to cage life as the lions, and
| they do not breed so satisfac torly in cap
tivity, and considerable numbers are i'm.
ported every year. Elephants do not
breed we'll in captivity, not more than two
or three ever having been bred in this
| country; but the importations of these an
\ imals are so large that the prices obtain
ed for them have dropped from $40, 000
| to 81, 800 to 81, 500 each.
Numerous as monkeys are in this coun-
| try, they are not bred here, as they do
not breed well in captivity. They are so
easily obtained in the country south of
us, however, that prices obtained for them
are merely nominal. and there is little
danger of their immediate extinction. In
| their native countries they multiply so
| rapidly that the supply always keeps well
up to the demand Among the highest
priced animals of to-day are the rhnocer-
|
do not breed in captivity. There are
probably not more than half a dozen in
number in this country; all were bought
years ago a good round sums. Thus, the
| full-grown one in Central Park cost the
department $1,000, and a similar sum was
paid for the fine African specimen in the
Philadelphia Zoo. The most recent pur-
chase OF rhinoseros was the full-grown
one for Barnum's circus which cost the
proprietors $25O.
The hippopotamus is another extremely
rare and expensive creature, and sales of
| these African products are so few that il
| Is difficult to quote a price for them. II
is seldom that dealers have a good speci-
men to sell. and few private circuses could
afford TO give the prices that would be de-
manded. The hippopotamus born in Cen
trail Park Is the only instance of these
animals breeding In this country. Had
this baby hippopotamus belonged to a
private show It would have made a for

ing almost constantly; the English navy is
operating with the system at Portsmouth
and the French navy will shortly have it
installed on a number of battleships and
cruisers. With the channel steamers and
German passenger ships about to take
up the system it might seem that the va
rious other waves whisking across and
through the English channel would cause
no end Of confusion. But those who have
the matter in hand say that this no long
er presents any difficulty; it has been
overcome by syntony. Now electric tun-
ing, or syntony, is term not understood

heen led TO take up this Invention because
1t has actually been shown to be Won
derful agent in The saving of life and
property. The Prince of Wales, as presi-
dent Of the Royal National Life Boat In
stitution of Great Britain, spoke not long
ago on the subject and said that az last
a system had been found which would
make navigation much safer and dimin-
ish the perils al sea. by its use two ships
had already been saved from wreck on
the Goodwin Sands. AS the result of one
speedy warning by wireless biography
from the Goodwin lightship property to
The amount of $4,000 was saved. The
owners nd crews of the lfeboats and tugs
received $1,000 for their work in response
to the wireless call. The British navy
proved the utility of wireless telegraphy
at sea up TO eighty miles eighteen months
ago, when IL was seen that the Admiral
from his lookout on sthe flagship could, by
pressing button, initiate any desired tad
tical evolution In the fleet, though none
of the ships was in sight and an almost
automatic precision ine the movements OF
every ship would result. 1t was then de
clared difficult 10 overestimate the value
of the new means Of communication.
Last fall while Marconi was reporting
the International yacht races in New
York messages were sent and received
with absolute certainty by his assistants
in England and France over distance
exceeding 100 miles. Strangely enough,
this then greatest attainment of the eys-
lem created no stir at the time. though II
occurred in connection with the meeting
of the English and French Associations
of Science.
What was necessary to the application
of the system at sea was a great loss
which might have been prevented by wire

fore. So, when one of The channel steam

it on the channel steamers would not be
strictly commercial but rather for the
purpose of saving life in case of danger.
Marconi himself thinks more of the pos
sibilities of saving life and property at sea
than of anything else. He has already
made It 50 effective that almost every con-
ceivable use on ships has been made prac-
IDEAL, yet he is continually planning inn

effective. In many ways the wireless sys-
tenn is surer than the ordinary wire or
cable method. There Is no cable to be
broken. no wires to be cut or blown down.
The medium IS always ready, and IL al
ways does its part. Mai. Baden-Powell,
now in South Africa, who used to be much
with Marcoui, tells of an instance, the
only time when his faith in the system

The upper ore bunkers of the War
Eagle at Rossland have been destroyed
by fire, infiicting loss of $4,000. The
fire started in the farmhouse, in which
was located the machinery of the
tramway.
In addition to a rotary mill, the We
nus company near Nelson, B. c., is
putting in complete steam plant, con-
sisting of a 4O-horse power boiler, a
35-horse power automatic engine which
will give sufficient surplus power to run
some 200 electric lights for the mine
and mill.
For some time the Old Ironside Min
ing Company has been getting ready to
equip the two shafts on the property
with steel cages. The first of these
was placed in position in the No.
shaft Tuesday, and is now running in
good shape to the 400-foot level.
The ore bins of the Old Ironsides
Knob Hill and Victoria mines at Phoe
nix camp are full to overlooking, con.

chalcopyrite ore. This will be shipped
to the CRANKY smelter at Grand Forks
as soon as the Canadian Pacific railroad
is able to furnish the requisite cars.
Word has been received from the In
ter-Mountain mine, in the Greenhorn
district, that rich body of ore has
been cut in the Cayuse claim of the
group, which gave values of $45 in
gold. The strike was made at a depth
of 14O feet in the tunnel. There has
been stopped out body of ore of this
character lao feet deep and 100 feet
long.
