A unefnI Tiger.

Snakes and hyenas are strange pets,
but strangcst of all is a full grown IL
ger, and such a pet had Major Mansell-
Pleydcll," says A. Mervyn Smith in his
book. 1T used to be chained up just In
front Of the door Of his bungalow. The
major had a method Of running up
bills with local tradesmen. but there
was great difficulty In getting pay
ment. as none of the bill collectors was
venturesomc enough to cross the
guardian at the door. 1t was a great
joke OF the majors when asked to pay
his bill to reply: Have you sent your
bill? Your man has never presented 1t
at my house Brutus, as the tiger was
named. seemed to know what was re-
quired OF him. When chained before
his masters door he would lie with his
head between his forepaws and watch
the gate. II n stranger entered he
would lift his head and breathe heav-
lily, and this was enough to scare the
most venturesome of bill collectors"

STORAGE RESERVOIRS.

When the copious rains which fall
on the extensive water shed north

provided for In reservoirs, there viii

voir north OF the city been built. the
floods could have done no damage TO
the city. Even had the dams over.
flowed. the waters would have been
able to distribute themselves harm
lessly over q considerable area.
Enough water has gone to waste In
this section the last few days to ir-
rigate a hundred thousand acres for a
year.
Untold damage has been done. loss
OF life has ensued and there Is a
menace in every cloud that gathers
above the mountains. II the govern
ment fails to build the Las Vegas res
ervoir, II VIII be the right KIND OF
economy for the citizens to take up
the proposition in earnest and devise
some way OF storing the flood waters.

spend hundreds of thousands OF dol.
lars In repairing the rayages OF the
floods Half the amount wisely ex.
pended in building reservoirs. would
not only guard against danger for the
future, but would result In the recla'
nation of large areas Of fertile land
which would render this section more
popnlous and more profitable from a
railroad standpoint. Every interest
OF this section demands the constnc-
ton of storage reservoirs as impor-
tant from a material standpoint.

Enough water has gone to waste In
the Santa Fee river during the last
forty-eight hours to fill reservoirs ana
to furnish a supply for the complete
annual irrigation OF twenty-five thous-
and or more acres of land In the San

times as much rain fell here as at
Santa Fe. When the headwaters OF
our streams are properly conserved,

ROME, Nov. IA North Italian paper
publishes some interesting statistics on
Alpine accidents this year. One hundred
and dfty-nine persons met their death
in the Alps. this number being eleven
in excess of last year.
A noticeable feature this season has
been the increased number Of persons
who have climbed without taking the
most elementary precautions The
worst accident was without doubt that

Englishmen on the Gran Paradise at the
beginning Of September.
This was due TO bad rOping and 20
the absence OF guides. The most SEN
