staff. In that country the big cats
are to be found in larger numbers
than in any other locality In Arizona
and the party expects to bag several
hundred Of them. At one time the
California lion was to be found in all
parts Of Arizona, but large territorial
and county bounties have caused his
determination in many places Many
thousand dollars have been paid by
each county for lion scalps, and at
$40 per head hunters have found II
profitable business, some Of them, in
times past. killing score of lions in
weeks time, and a total of over
$4,000 has been paid in Arizona for
scalps in the past ten years. Hundreds
Of lions though have been shot by
many who have not claimed the boun-
ties, taking as their rewards the fact
that they have disposed Of theocause
Of the slaughter Of the calves, colts
and lambs.
While the lions have grown less
common in the southern part Of the
territory. there has been no perceptible
decrease in their numbers in the wild
or northern regions. Sheepmen in the
San Francisco mountains have COM
planned Of late that the lions are kill
Ing off all their lambs In such num-
bers that their raids are proving ruin

Carthy, territorial game warden, has
organized the hunting party and the
district where the lions abound will
be thoroughly gone over. The animals
will be driven into the center of a
circle whore they can easily be killed. |

the size Of Canadian lynx and pos

coWardly and has never been known
to attack a man unless cornered. but
Is capable Of fierce fight when driven

STORE CONSUMED BY FIRE.

Wilson. The store of H. O. Mccall
was burned Friday morning, with
the entire stock of goods. The fire
vas discovered about 4 o'clock, and
before anything could be done the
entire building was in flames. Had
it not been for the prompt response
Of citizens most of the town would
have been burned. Mr.. Mccall was
one Of the unfortunates in the fire at
Wilson several years ago, having his
store and entire stock destroyed at
that time, the building being on the
'ame site as the one burned Friday.
The fire was evidently the work Of
Lncendiaries. Store and stock were
valued at about $1,000; insurance
about 81, 900.

We can already calculate approxi-
mately the proportions, the strength
and weight, the supporting efficiency,
the speed. and the power required for
projected flying machine, SO as to
judge Of the practicability of design.
Indeed, the mathematics Of the subject
have been SO far evolved that engi-
neering computations may eventually
displace vague speculation in the do
main OF aerial navigation.
But after tie problem has been
worked out to a mechanical success.
the commercial uses of aerial appar-
atus will be small. The limitations
OF the balloon have already been men
toned; such craft will be slow. frail,
and very costly. We are now sufi-
ciently advanced in the design of fly
Ing machines to perceive some Of their
limitations. They will be compare
lively small and cranky, require much
power, carry little extra weight and
depend for their effective speed on
each journey, whether they go against
the wind or with it, so that they can
not compete with existing modes of
transportation in cheapness or In car
ry1ng capacity. 1t is true that high
speeds may be attained, and this may
serve in war, in exploration, perhaps
IN mail transportation, and in sport;
out the loads will be very small, and
the expenses will be great.
But flying machines will develop
new uses Of their own; and as man
Kind has always been benefited by
the introduction Of new and faster
modes Of transportation, we may hope
that successful aerial navigation will
spread civilization, knit the nations
closer together, make all regions &C.
cessiole, and perhaps so equalize the
hazards Of war as to abolish it alto
gether, thus bringing about the pre-
dicsed era Of universal peace and good
will.
