stranger felt that l should be given the right of

of politely standing aside to let me pass. l might
have squeezed by, with apology; but, fearing that
it might not be accepted, gave way to this example
of jungle bad manners and retreated back to the

tered the bush without deigning to give further
notice. You may be sure that lost time that
tunnel-like path to water.
Thus far we had only the broken branches
and the big footprints that proclaimed the haunts
OF elephants; but now, one afternoon when | had
wandered away from camp mile or so to shoot
buck tor fresh meat, came upon herd. They
were grazing quietly. and did not until,
after watching them for few minutes, | announced
my presence by striking piece of dried bush against
tree. Their frantic efforts to get away made me
laugh aloud. They lifted their great ears, and
raised their trunks and tails in terrified surprise,
and went wadding off like covey of port1y matrons.
There is real sport in hunting elephants. They
will fight only when wounded and brought to bay,
and be easily killed with proper rifle
.. Killed Only For Food

Against background OF green grass and trees they

this time, the beast of prey. l shot the male,
leaving the widow to wander alone until she could
find another mate.
For several days we had been working Our way
slowly up the Zambes At last we found, as we had
expected, stream that flowed into the river from
the highlands to the south. Though small it offered
plenty of water, and so we followed it. The bush
began to thin out, and from the long slopes that l
liked to mount for the cooler air there sweeping
views of the vast wilderness to the north and west.

THE PERFECT WAY.
Scores Of Paw Paw Citizens Have
Learned 1t.

If you suffer from backache,
there is only one way to cure it.
The perfect way is to cure the
kidneys. A bad back means sick
kidneys. Neglect it, urinary
troubles follow. Doan's Kidney
pills are made for the kidneys
only. Are endorsed by Paw Paw
people.
Mrs. Rooney Of LaGrave street,
says: "Doan's Kieney Pills pro-
cured at Martin & Slovenian S
drug store have been used in my
family with satisfactory results.
They acted very nicely. The
case showed SYMPTOMS of kidney
trouble and it was short time
after commencing the treatment
that all indications of kidney
complaint discontinued. From
our experience we can say that
Doan's kidney Pills are reliable
remedy and we can consistently
recommend them.

MICKEY TALKS ON ASYLUM,
Thinks Evidence Shows Change Here
Necessary.

Lincoln correspondence in Omaha
Bee: The state board of public lands
and buildings has not yet decided when
to permit the attorneys representing
DR.. Alden and DR.. Nicholson in the
Norfolk asylum matter to make their
arguments on the testimony intro
duced. Governor Mickey upon his re-
turn to the city said the matter was
up to the board.
81 did what think should have been
done when l asked for the resignation
of the two physicians upon the evil
dence which was furnished me. I'm
fortunate people of this state are sent
to the asylums to be cared for because
they are unable to care for themselves.
Nebraska cannot afford to have its
wards mistreated, and if there is any
evidence that these wards have been
mistreated there should be change
in the management.
what the board will do in the mat
ter or what recommendation 1t will
make Of course l do not know. The
evidence given to me of the practices
at the institution demonstrated conclu-
sively that change in the manage
ment was imperative for the interests
of the patients.
"The fact that patient was strong
enough to work in blacksmith shop
and nine days later dies after having
been beaten by attendants l think
warrants a thorough investigation and
an overhauling of the management of
the institution. Two of the attend.
ants employed at the institution had
been discharged from another state in.
stitution because of their cruelty to
inmates. Only humane men should be
employed in the capacity of atten
dants. The state pays them a salary
to get them to look after the unfor
tunate inmates, and as long as l have
authority there will be no cruelty prac
ticed in any state institution"
The governor only smiled wher
asked concerning Steward Peters let
ter, saying he had no use for the outfit
and refused to discuss it.
