procedure at lion hunt, for If the
horses catch sight of a lion there is
always a danger that they may get
frightened and bolt.
MY relatives placed us. l was told
to sit behind or, from the lions point
of view, in front of the horses, with
my rifle covering him. His last bound
brought him close to me; then he
crouched, with the intention, ii seemed
to me, of jumping right over me on to
the horses. AS he rose l fired. And
so fortunate was my aim that l killed
him outright; and he nearly killed me
in his turn, for he almost crushed me
as he fell. My companions ran to my
assistance; but needed no help, for the
lion was dead. 1t was strong beast.
Hearing the shot, the other three
hurried up, and then we all stood round
the lion and talked the adventure over.
A certain Hugo knelt down to measure
the lions teeth, which We're eXtraordi-
narily big. Thinking no harm, l jump
ed on the lions stomach. AS 1 did so,
the air shook with a tremendous roar,
which so frightened Hugo that he for
got his tooth measurements and fell
down fiat upon his back. The others
shook with laughter for every hunter
knows that if you tread upon a lions
body within a short time of his death
he will give short last roar as though
he were still alive. The breath that
remains in him, being forced from the
stomach through the throat, produces
the roar. Hugo, of course, knew this,
but he had forgotten it, and was great
ly ashamed of his fright. In fact, he
was so angry that he turned on me to
give me a good hiding. But the others

day by Judge Robinson, together with
the masters report thereon by NJ. Z.
Simonton. Receipts were slS,34235 and
payments $17,09075, leaving a balance
of $1251.60. Capital receipts amounted
to $4,000, while $4,000 was invested in
Pioneer Mill Co. 6 per cent bonds. At
tention is called to the fact that this
investment exceeded the amount order
ed by the court to be so invested, but
the master says:
while it is doubtless within the
scope of the master to recommend that
the guardians be surcharged with said
master does not feel justified in so do
ing, being cognizant of the careful
management of the wards affairs by
the present guardians. From investi-
cation made and from information CIV
en-, the master finds that the invest
ment in the bonds of said Pioneer Mill
Company, Limited, by guardians or
trustees, Is almost unanimously con-
sidered as a commendable and safe in
vestment. The master would therefore
recommend that the further inyestrue 1t
here noted be approved by your
