LIONS STRENGTH.
Noted Hunter Killed With One Blow
of Animals Paw.

From the Pail Mall Gazette.
The Indian mail to hand brings US vivid
and pathetic details of the death of Maj.
Carney during the lion shooting exploit In
the Cir forest district. The major, OF
course, was the political officer of the vice
row. and the expedition had been arranged
nv Lord Harrington on the site of the lion
hunt prepared for Lord Curzon five years
ago. but never fulfilled. 1t is believed there
are sixty or seventy lions in the Cir, and
the major, having spent the last couple OF
years in the vicinity. knew the Junagadh
better than any one. On March a tracker
arrived who had been attacked by lion
while riding into camp. and, while he drop
ped his weapons and escaped, 1t was only
by abandoning his pony and seeing the
animal carried Off.
The '.shoot" was divided into three par
ties, with the major in the second, and 1t
entered the jungle to the depth of about
ten miles The ma jor and his two friends.
Mr.. du Boulay and Capt. Foljambe. Sc
lected tree each ranging along a nullah
and the two latter fired at fine Hon.
wounding him high in the right shoulder.
The major also hit lionesS. The natives
also fired their old-faShioned guns, and II
was thought safe to descend the trees for
a consultation and search for the wounded
quarry. The lioness appeared and ran for a
shikari. but the major fired and dropped
her dead. Then there q pause for
drinks. and the party began to follow the
lions trail down the nullah for mile or
so. Now and then the men assembled trees
to keep a lookout, and at last the party
came into a clearance, with waist-high
grass instead of trees
Suddenly there was a roar, and the lion
dashed out making straight for the major
who fred one shot, Just grazing the beast
simultaneously there was a struggling
cloud of dust in which the natives say
they saw the lion beat the major down
with blow of his paw. Capt. Foljambe
fired. Mr.. du Boulay ran up and fired point
blank at the lions heart. native fired into
It's hindquarters while others dubbed IL
with a rifle butt and swords. The major
was found to be dead He must have died
simultaneously. The body was carried on
charpoy by torchlight and conveyed back
to Rajkote by special train, and the shock
caused by the news throughout the Juna-
gadh district was intensely felt
1t Is added that the lion measured eleven
feet from tip of tall The others shot were
two lions, rather less In size and a Eoness
(the major's) of nine feet.

REAL ESTATE GOSSIP
Large Sum Spent in Local
Building Operations.
RECORD FOR DISTRICT
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS INVESTED
IN STRUCTURES.
Addition to the Number of Apartment
Houses-Sales of Realty Report
ed by Brokers.

During the twelve months which closed
at the end of June. which constitutes what
is known as the fiscal year, there was more
spent in building operations in this city
than during any previous period in It's his
tory. This plain statement of fact hardly
conveys an idea of the significance, for the
reason that it Is not possible to grasp the
meaning of figures such as these without
having some particular knowledge by which
to make a comparison. Expenditures on
this account have been going on during the
past year at the rate of over a million dol
lars per month. In New York city, for
example such an outlay would not seem
very large, for there during the last week
in June permits issued called for an outlay
Of over $4,000 600.
In this District, where the population has
not reached the lofty figures that are found
in New York city, twelve million of dollars
is a good deal of money to put in brick and
mortar in the course of one year. In fact
as stated. it is a phenomenal record. al
though last year the total value of the
building permits issued mounted up to $13.-
sS5.000 Still these figures lose their sig
nifcance in this connection when 1t is re-
called that they included the S5.000000
which was recorded the value of the
union station when permit was taken out
for the erection of that structure The
building permits issued during that year.
Due to Growing City.
During the past year that same result in
amount has been attained and yet there has
been nothing of an extraordinary nature
to swell the total. If permission was neces-
sary from the municipal authorities when
Uncle Sam proposed to put up building on
some of his property then the records of
the building inspectors Office would show
that at once and it would be possible. at
any rate for this year. to come nearer to
equaling the building record of such a
large center of population as New York.
However. there Is nothing unusual to help
the figures along this year except the en-
terprise of growing city and the neces-
sity that exists to provide houses and the
places of business required by such thr1v-
ing place
The figures of the values of the building
permits of previous years will be of interest
In this connection. as enabling one TO better
realize what has been going on here dur
ing the past year.
Bearing IN mind the total of nearly
$4,000, eco for the year ending with June 80,
and also the fact that the previous year
the building permits included the value of
the union depot. the following table will
give some idea of the building activity that
his prevailed here:

MAN TO LIVE ALWAYS.
Biologist Believes Science Will Find a
Way to Ward Off Death.

From the Chicago Record-Heraid
Man will live forever an earth without
fear Of death. except by accident, II mod
ern science is successful in experiments now
taking shape in the great scientific labora-
tories according to DIR. Albert p Mathews,
professor of physiological chemistry at the
University of Chicago. The Immortality OF
the body depends simply on the discovery
OF diet which will keep intact the funda-
mental principle of the human cell, and it
is probable that this will be found, DR..
Mathews believes.
Professor Mathews. who has been con-
Quoting remarkable experiments in regard
to the artificial formation of life and the
restora ton of life by artificial means. an
bounced lis views in an article on What
Ia Death?' IN the current number Of the
World Today. His view Is that death IS
caused primarily by the cessation of reSpi-
ration. which may be kept up indefinitely
IL the proper relation between food and the
fundamental cell substance is found.
DIR. Mathews has discovered that the
breathing process causes the same reaction
as that produced by alcohol on the sub
stance "benzophehone" in the sunlight. The
alcohol in this experiment decompoSes, and
the substances formed are sugar. amido-
acids, proteids and other components of the
human CELL
The probability of a correct diet keeping
up this life reaction is commented upon
by DR.. Mathews as follows: Now this re-
action under perfect conditions should con-
tinue indefinitely, and so render the human
body immortal. Unfortunately, however, 1t
does not so continue 1t is the keen desire
OF all to find out why IL does not continue
and 10 change conditions so that Ii will
continue as long as possible.
1.-The chief causes of its cessation may be
divided into obviously extrinsic and appar-
entity intrinsic causes. The obvious exter-
nal causes the ordinary causes of death
accidents, assaults and taking of poison.
the action OF parasites and disease germs
these causes of death are relatively easily
removed. They Will be removed for the
most part in the near future. There will
remain apparently intrinsic causes of death
improper feeding and incomplete excretion.
LAS yet we are not familiar enough with
ferent tissues. We do not know exactly
what they need for food and in what
amount. Our eating is entirely empirical.
Until We know exactly what the different
tissues need We must continue as at present
to give one tissue too much, too little or not
quite the right food. The result is that in
this tissue the fundamental reaction uiti-
mately ceases. This incidentally ruins the
rest of the body. A true science of dietetics
is, however, now being formed"
AS to the possibility of discovering the
chemical nature of the life substance in
the cell DIR. Mathews says:
The endeavor Is now being made in
many laboratories to discover what the
substance is which thus acts on water and
carries on the respiration In the cell. When
that Is known / feel confident that we can
speak much more fully on the subject Of
life and DEATH"

and gray and tan the correct shades. The
fact that fabric gloves are "tubable' suits
them particularly to light travelling and In
formal wear In town and out. 1t Is decid-
eddy homogeneous to see a man wear a
heavy leather glove during grilling weather
1t is as Inappropriate as greatcoat
would be. At the same time. gentleman
dislikes to go glovelesS at any time, and
fabric gloves are capitally adapted tic hot
weather. The monogram habit is on the
wane, and many men who had heretofore
insisted upon 1t on all the small articles OF
dress have dropped 1t except on the hand
kerchief. In itself unobjectionable the
monogram has been vulgarized by excessive
USE notably on the pocket flap of the
waistcoat and the sleeves of the shirt The
newer monograms are small and incon-
spicuous and not glaring bull s-eyes as
they used to be.
Evening Clothes.
Most men 20 not trouble to distinguish
between evening clothes for winter and
evening clothes for summer, and. truth to
tell, the differences are not Important
Nevertheless. there are some differences IN
fabric, IL not in form, and these are de-
signed to put a man more at his ease dur
ing trying weather. The evening suit Tor
summer Is fashioned of a thinner. softer
worsted than the winter suit. and is cut a
bit looser round hip and knee for greater
comfort in dancing. OF course, the waist
coat Is white. Black waistcoats, always
suggestive of the club servant, are espe-
cfally undesirable IN summer, when the
very eye Is soethed by the crispness and
GOODNESS OF white The evening shirt
should not be ironed to board-like hard
ness, but the bosom should be less starched
so that 1t may fit snugger and feel easier.
While the poke and Iapfront collars are,
strictly considered. the only collars to ac-
company ceremonious evening dress, the
wing Is worn by some men who subordinate
comfort to good form Plain white even
Ing ties have been again supplanted by ties
with indistinct self-designs In cords and
the like I mentioned some months ago the
vogue for black silk socks with fine white
clockings, and the younger set It still
partial to these. Glace gloves, with black
silk backs, are less favored in summer
than the conventional gloves with self
backs. or course, patent leather pumps
are omnipresent and the buttoned boot Is
rarely seen. though the low-cut shoes are.

Drawing Near Together.
ON the Paris lie Temps.

From the Paris lie Temps.
The identity of interests between England
and France, to which the arrangement of
April 8, 1904. bore evidence, has been proved
by experience to be durable and profound.
The diplomatic accord of tie two nations
has received a new conservation. and the
certainty that tie co-opera ton which has
been established for a year In the basin of
the Mediterranean can and should develop,
seems most useful in the present circum-
stances.

Record of Ten Years.
The record by months during the pres
ent calendar year brings out the actual
conditions that have prevailed here:
Millions in Buildings.

At the same time the amount of public
work that is going on is without precedent.
Including the municipal building. there are
five large public buildings that are either
under process of construction or prepara-
lions are being made to begin the work
In addition. notable group of buildings Is
being erected at the Washington barracks
for the use of the War College. and the ex-
tensive undertaking of the filtra ton plant
Is nearing completion The new buildings
that are being put up by the government.
to which reference has been made. includes
the two office buildings on the north and
south side of the Capitol grounds for the
use of the Senate and the House and the
national museum building and the one for
the Agricultural Department. Each one of
these will cost from two to three million
dollars.
1t Is therefore evident that the expansion
of the facilities here for the government
also gives rise to the need for more build
ings for private use as distinguished from
public, and that, in other words, the city
grows with the growth of the government
AS the latter keeps pace or. aims to, with
the increase in the population of the coun-
try, 1t is quite evident that the city has
ahead of 1t many years of prosperity, for
there is no voice yet raised to say that the
To Meet an Additional Demand.
1t is, therefore, not surprising that the
past year has witnessed such great activity
In building, nor is there any reason to sup
pose that the movement is a purely specu-
lative one and that at any time the bottom
may drop out and builders and investors
find themselves with property for which
there Is no market. In fact. the most care
full observers are of the opinion that the
building of houses and apartments has pro-
ceeded along conservative lines, and that
there is but little reason to apprehend that
the market has been overbuilt
At any rate, there is no tangible evidence
of 1t. and while there Is likely to be a
slower movement In building for the ball
ance of the year. 1t will be In line with the
conservative tendency of the market that
has been noted and which seeks to find out
the extent OF the demand and to keep the
supply within reasonable interval of the
demand rather than to allow 1t to exceed t.

ment houses Is to be made In the Waverley.
