My Russian friends had not enjoyed
their stay on shore under the trying
conditions. We threw overheard for
their use all the ducks and geese,
which, after disporting themselves a
few minutes in honor of their new

shore, where they We're speedily dis

also consigned a pig to the Vastly deep,
and it nobly struggled ashore only to
meet the common fate of succulent
pork. Through the glass 1 could see
the governor general in his swell regi-
mentals with a row Of medals across
his breast Juggling an arnful of drift
wood along the shore to the fire.
And so We made our way back to
KOrSakovsk a very discouraged and
bedraggled company. The governor
general took me to the house Of the
chief magistrate, where / was given a
comfortable room, and could once more
sit down to good table. That night

shoes, farming implements and other

of the shops they were making wagons
and carts. Very many Of the convicts

a dozen clerks smoking and drinking
tea. They were all convicts, most of
them having dark crimes to their dis
credit.
Leaving the prison, we walked down
the street and soon came to q little
stand, where bread and milk were be-
ing sold by a nice-loOking Russian girl.
I asked on what charge she had been
brought TO Saghalien. The officer in
terpreted my question. The girl laugh

husband. She was twenty three years
old.

speed through the dense fog, pointing
southeast in order to round the south
ern point of the island and make our
way up the eastern coast. We might
have been more cautious had not the
governor general been in haste. AS it
turned out, we would have done better
to proceed more slowly; for shortly

SLEEPING LION STAYS TRIGGER.
Hunters Story of a Strange Impulse No
to Shoot


Hank Order, a veteran hunter along the
great stretches Of the Rocky mountains
made a trip to Southern California in
1871 and assembled Old Badly. Among
his "reminiscences the following, related
by himself, stands out as the most singu-
lar:
One afternoon. while picking his way
carefully along the narrow ledge high up
on the mountainsde, he came upon a
sleeping lion that lay with its nose be-
tween its forepaws in a sunny angle of
the rock
Order was a dead shot. and raising his
rifle softly to his shoulder he drew bead
on the lion, directly between the closed
eyes. He had killed many animals of
this sort, and knew exactly where to send
the lead into its brain. Nothing was
surer than If he pressed the trigger the
great cat would pass from sleep into in
slant death.
But, through some unusual impulse as
strange as it was unaccountable, Order
lowered the muzzle of his weapon without
shooting. Again he raised the rifle, took
deliberate aim, and again lowered the gun
without firing.
He could not explain the reason for this
strange act, nor why he backed softly off
and retraced his way, leaving the lion I'M
disturbed. He had never done such a
thing before in all his mountaineering ex-
perience.
At length he sat down on the edge of
boulder and cogitated long and seriously
over the queer matter
Now, what in thunder did I do that
for?" he asked himself, over and over.
"One crack of my old gatlin' here, and
that cat would have been too dead to
kick just as sure as the sun sets over
that dirty little pueblo of Los Angeles
down yonder. And to prove it I'll just drop
that eagle that has lit on that point Of
rock across the canyon"
He raised his rife, took quick aim at
the bird and pulled the trigger.
Only dull click followed as the ham
mer' struck. The cartridge was a defective
one.-Los Angeles Times.

The Advantages Of the Southwest
For People From Other Sections,

all lines of industry. In foreign
commerce the whole trend of
growth is through the Southern
ports. With the certainty of
vast increase in manufactures, in

come a great increase in land
values. There will be unlimited
fields of employment opening up
for the newcomer as we'll as for
the native. Here is land

THE SEWERAGE QUESTION.

The Enterprise is, of
course, expected to espouse
the cause of sewerage. Of
course it is not necessary,
for the sentiment is prac-
tically unanimous already.
The only thing to do is to
turn loose and it's a go.
We feel, however, that it
is our duty to advise caution
and conservatism. Sewers
will cost the city an i'm
mense sum. When we say
immense, we mean in COM
parison with a nything else
we have ever undertaken.
1t gives opportunity for
grating and bood1ing, and
b1unders innumerable.
The time has arrived for
Fitzgerald to undertake
sewerage, but we should
not approach the subject
precipitately. Let's start
right and act deliberately
on this very important mat
ter. The city must assume
a large debt, and every dol
lar should be invested in a
business-like manner.
We must have the sew
erage, the right kind at the
right cost.

The crops in this section are
unusually good and most of item
so nearly matured that no disas-
tor is likely to bcfall. If the
cotton crop throughout the cot.

as good as it is in this section
then a 100000 bale crop may
be possible.

In selecting a country Tor a
home a man naturally wants to
find place possessing as many
natural advantages and as few
disadvantages as possible. He
likewise wants a country where
schools and churches abound,
where social opportunities are
good, where wealth and popu-
lation are increasing. In the
South, including, of course, the
great Southwest, all of these
things are found. Here is to be
had every attraction for the
farmer, good soil capable of the
highest improvement and yield
ing almost every crop known to
the temperate regions-grain,
grasses, potatoes and fruits of
endless variety, as we'll as the
distinctive Southern crops-cot-
ton, corn, rice, sugar and tobacco.
A Northern or Western farmer
coming south need never cult
vate, unless he so desires, any
crops except those with which he
is familiar in his own country.
If he wants to grow cotton and
rice he will find ample room for
profitable work; if he prefers to
stick to grain and grasses, to
fruits or trucking, he can find
locations having advantages not
surpassed by any part of the
North or West, To these the
South adds climate which means
health to all and long life to many
who cannot safely stand the rigor
of Northern and Western win
ters. In place of snow it offers
sunshine; in place of sickness
from long, dreary winters, it
offers outdoor activity and health.

people have not been drawn away
after false gods. 1t has not yet
become fashionable in the South
to be higher critic nor to make
light of sacred things, The old
fashioned camp-meeting in the
country and the revival service
in city churches are still a great
power in the South. The sacred
ness of home is the foundation
stone of Southern life. With
warm-hearted, genuine hospital
ity the South welcomes every
good, honest newcomer. 1t judg-
es man by his character and
his acts, and if these are right he
finds as warm friends as he can
find, in the world; if they are
wrong he had better stay else
where.
And then from the business
side the South offers the most
inviting field in the world. In
manufactures it has a greater
future than any other part of the
world, for here nature has con-
centrated the raw materials for
