The PRESIDENTS HUNTING LICENSE

President Roosevelt not having signifed
his intention Of asking special privileges
for his hunting trip in British East Africa
through diplomatic channels, it is sup.
posed that he will take out an ordinary
ESQ license from the Colonial Office.
Even this, however, has not yet been ap.
piled for, although it is always usual to
solicit such licenses several mouths in ad-
vance. -..-
Under them each hunter is limited to
go animals, except the cases of lions,
Ieopards and crocodiles, of which he may
shoot as many as he wishes. As set forth
in the new licenses, the President may
kill "two elephants, two rhinoceroses, ten
hippopotamus, tventy.one antelopes, two
buffaloes, twe earth hogs, two earth
wolves, ten chevrotains, two monkeye,
two marabout storks, two ostriches, two
egrets and one chimpanzee." Giraffes,
wild assess, secretary birds and number
of other species are forbidden to any hum
ter not endowed with special privileges.
The President will be required to set
forth in his own handwriting the animals
be intends to kill, as well as the locality
where he will hunt. Before leaving
Africa be will be required to declare what
animals and how many he has shot.
One of the organizers of the trip, an
American interested in the development
of Nairobi, said he did not believe the
President would ask for diplomatic privi-
Ieges, but he had an idea that unique.
special license would be presented to
him.
'The President will be delighted" ;" said
this man." when he hears that he can
shoot any kind of game be wants literally
from the car windows. / have seen
droves of buffaloes. and dozens of lions
and tigers wandering in the woods while
the railway in Nairobi was being built.
They would rush up to the very rails
to see what was going on and then would
take to their heels.
"Now they are getting very timid, but
I think President Roosevelt will have
every bit of sport he expects"

OUR NAVY LEADS IN SHOOTING

The American Navy now leads the
world in accuracy OF shooting; six years
ago it was behind the navy OF every
standard for firing heavy turret-cuns-
which are now battleship's sole weapon
OF consequence in battle-was once in
five minutes; the average Of hits on the
target DOW in use would not be once an.
hour. At present these guns are an aver
age Of one and half shots minute;
they bit the target once q minute.
Six years ago, the standard rate Of fire
for six inch guns was less than two shots
a minute; as shown by the test OF 1902,
less than one shot in six hit the target.
To-day these guns frequently make as
high as u hits minute, and the average
of tile whole navy is sig hits a minute.
These are the records at the l.60O yard
range. At the last long=range target prac-
tice in Massachusetts, Bay, the battle ships
of the North Atlantic feet, firing at a
target from three to five miles away, av-
eraged hearty thirty per cent. of hits.
With a target one-third the size OF the
ships at Santiago, at distances from two
to three times as great, our feet made
more than fifteen times the percentage OF
hits. McClures for November.
