Reports come from Minnesota that. the moose is fast disappearing from the
 northern forests of that state; that the
 game wardens are absolutely unable to
 cope with the pothunters bent on eat Hing their meat, tanning their hides, and selling their horns The moose, driven from the forests by the swarmS of mos
 quitoes, invade fearlessly the clearings
 of the settlers in their attempts to avoid
 their tiny foes, and fall easy victims to the firearms of men. q
 The great animal, the hugest of the
 deer family, with his fiat shovel horns 1 and proboscis-like nose, is an anachron-
 ism. Like the hippopotamus and the great auk, he seems to belong to pre-
 historic age, an age when lizards twen- ty fathoms long swam in different seas l from those We know to-day, and when
 mighty mastodons refreshed their hairy
 strength. with foliage now buried thou-
 sands of feet beneath the glacier ice of ,, Alaska. Measuring in the 10,000,0o0 1 year periods of geology, the moose has | the look of the contemporary or inme- diate successor of the hundred feet high swans, which were covered with tough black leather, and fought the sea ser pents. ......

A man, looking at a moose or rhinoceros, feels within him the instinct that those animals are not of his age; that they are survivals from a former con, whereas the sight of whitehall deer, or elk, or lions, or ze- bras. or gorillas raises no such er11o- lions in his breast, though those beasts he equally fold and inaccessible.

 in nine consecutive hours is a perform
 ance of great note, albeit the country
 be picturesque and the hider have a fresh animal every ten miles. Mag nificent landscapes are we'll enough in
 their way. They add to ones artistic pleasure and generate much soulful
 adumbration. They do not, however,
 prevent chafing, nor does the memory thereof possess any of the qualities of cold cream afterward. Similarly, ii
 will not do to disparage General Miles feat by objecting that he had nine
 horses to help him. The question was
 not one of the horses endurance. What the country wanted to know about was General Miles endurance. Of course we understand that nothing so dis tresses and fatigues a man of feeling as to ride thoroughly exhausted horse and We are quite willing to admit that General Miles could not have covered the distance in the time had he been limited to single steed. Our proposi- tion is that the lieutenant general commanding was entitled to the oppor- tunity of proving that he is still in ful health and vigor, and our further con. tention is that he should not have beer handicapped in this by the physical in . adequacies of a mere horse.

We may as we'll confess, however, that we are not prepared to indorse the differences of certain esteemed con-. temporaries, especially such as now class General Miles with Lochinvar, John Gilpin, and centaurs of that de- scription. Neither do we recognize the parallel with Paul Revere, or Ethan Allen, or any other of the heroes of poetry and romance. This was not a
 dash with a girl, or a rush for the doc-. tor, or a wild ride with spectacular dis play in view. It was a plain, business like jog over good roads,, with plenty
 of relays, by corpulent gentleman
 somewhat stricken in years, who want
 ed to show that he could still keep on a well-behaved horse for several hours at stretch. There is nothing more in 1t that we can see. In the case of a civilian, unused to equestrian achieve
 ment, it would have been impossible.
 In the case of mold cavalrynlan, with
 a good, tough, indurated seat,. and no difficulties to encounter by the way, 1t was creditable, but not quite marvel ous.

 also be conceded. But we are not ready
 to admit that these. things have been
 proven by the ninety miles ride, To
 accept that conclusion would be to say that an officer capable of "skinning the eat" or climbing the greasy pole, or
