how they shoot Hons and leopasds by
means of traps The most common
lion trap Is a moose baited with meat
and SO arranged that when the lion
grabs the meat he IS caught by The
moose, and In jerking away pulls the
trigger of gun which hangs down
from. above. THE gun is 80 fixed that
whom H. goes off the beast receives the
ball just back OF the riack and is killed.
lii trapping leopards the gun is set at
an angle or fortyfive degrees, so that
the animal Is shot through the brain.
Thc Tiger 1fisl, of the Xnmi,esi.
Az to fishing, am told there Is no
sport like catching the tiger fish Of the
Iambcsj. THIS fish often weighs AS
much as twenty-five pounds. and 1t Is
az gamey as salmon. Indeed, IT IL
for 1t Is said tlias a foreground Fam
bcsi tiger Will yield more excitement
tIian a forty pound salmon. The tiger
Ash Is dark blue on the back, white on
tile belly. and 1t has five Or six blue
stripes on the sides. Its fins and tall
are red.
The best places to fish for 1t are
from an island. or below rocky bar,
lin about three feet Of water. Tho
fish takes almost any kind Of a gilt
tering. spinning bait, aud a good way
10 catch II is to troll for 1t or cast
with a hook With Il spoon fastened
to the line by steel wire. The lines
have to be carefully made, and Moth
ing but wire Is of any good in con-
nection with the hook, for the tiger
will cut gut or Irvine line to pieces
with it's teeth Great care must he
used in extracting the hook and 1t Is
well to Kill the fish first Its teeth arc
sharp, and, If one Is not careful, he
may lose4a finger. The tiger fish is as
full OF bones as a. shad. but it does
not compare with either the salmon
or shad as table Fish. About It's only
virtue is the sport which 1t affords,
and there are many African fish which
arc better TO taste.
Down here in Rhodesla the Presi.
dent Will find the winter months OF
from July to November the best time
for his visit. Then the rainy season
is over, the grass is grown up and
been burned off and the new grass
is Just shooting. The game now comes
out of the woods and bushes to Craze,
and there are practically no insects
or mosquitoes. There is no danger
of fever at this time, although I would
suggest that tho President go nowhere
in Africa without mosquito nets, and
that he put them up whether out on
the plains or In the cars when there
is the least danger

NESB|II APPROVES
MILEAGE BOOK Plan.
Urges Public to Cooperate
With Railroads.
ACCEPT CHEAPER RATES.
He Says The New System Makes
Less Bookkeeping, Thereby
Permitting Lower Rates
to be Put Into Effect.
ACCEPT CHEAPER RATES.

w. D. Nesbitt, associate railroad
commissioner of Alabama, urges the
travelling public to cooperate with the
railroads in putting into effect their
mileage book system.
II note considerable criticism in the
papers of the plan the railroads have
adopted IN putting on sale their 1000
and 1000 mile, two-cen interchange
able tickets, said Mr.. Nesbitt.
'There seems to be complaint on ac-
oount of the fact that these tickets have
to be exchanged at the ticket Offices for
the regular card tickets and are not ac-
cepted by train conductors except from
on sale.
"Without full understanding Of the
situation this requirement Of the rail-
roads might be considered arbitrary
and unnecessary. AS a matter of fact,
however, the requirement. is one made
in order to save expense in the book
keeping and accounting departments of
the railroads. Where the mileage strips
are by conductors on the trains from
books sold by one road and good on
several roads, special reports have to
be made by the conductors on account
of this mileage, and special settlements
made between the railroads. Under
the plan adopted by the railroads, this
mileage comes only through the regu-
lar ticket offices and hence requires a
sir Of md
| book keeping, and reduces the clerical
force necessary to handle the business.
1t also reduces the possibility of error
by conductors in tearing mileage and
enables them to handle their passengers
much more expeditiously, and, there
| tore, gives them more time for atten-
ton to the running of their trains.
1.-THE public should, by as much CO.
operation as possible, encourage the
| railroads to establish these cheaper
| rates, and realize that if we are to have
reasonable rates and good service,
every unnecessary expense and waste
must be cut off. Every time an unnec-
essary expense is removed the net re-
turns to the railroad is increased, and, ,
| therefore, the smaller the gross charge
which it is necessary for them to max
in order to get a reas enable return
upon their Investments.
Buying these 1000 and 1000 mile
tickets, as com pared with the purchase
OF ordinary fares, is just like buying
wholesale and retail. The man who
| buys wholesale gets it at cheaper
price, but has to get delivery in lerge
quantities and in less expensive way
than the man Who is buying retail. For
instance, the man who is willing to buy
a crate of eggs and send to the depot to
get them, pays probably pays 13 and
ID cents per dozen, while the man buy
ing a single dozen and asking the gro
Ger to deliver them at his house will
likely pay 25 or 80 cents per dozen.
1.-THE cheap tickets offer transporta-
tion at wholesale rates it one is willing
to use this transportation in such way
as will enable the railroads to reduce
the expense of delivering it. From
