The great majority of men and wom-
en- at the age OF so years begin TO feel
the first signs OF advancing age in
some form of kidney trouble and blad-

had been made to ship . machine
abroad, when man was thrown from

THE AFRICAN GAME LAWS.

Those who have thought of the
wilds of Africa as a great wilderness
filled with beasts and birds against
which hunters may make general war
fare are mistaken. They have game
laws over in Africa the same as
they have in most of the Ameri-
can states and the hunters for big
game" have to observe certain rules,
just as Nebraska sportsmen have
fixed days only in which they may pot
the partridge and the duck. An official
statement gives this list of animals Mr..
Roosevelt will be allowed to kill, under
the African game laws, when he in
vades that country with his elephant
guns, photographer and typewriter.
Two elephants. two rhinoceri, ten hip
popotami, two earth hogs, two earth wolves,
ten chevrotains, two monkeys, two mara
bou stoTks, two egrets and one c~himpanzee.
That list ought to be sufficient to
satisfy the most rapacious sportsman,
but we are further informed that Mr..
Roosevelt, by getting a special license,
may add to his game bag a limited
number of ~giraffes, secretary birds and
a number of other species. We trust
the president will take out a special
license. He may not care to kill or cap
ture any CRATES, but he certainly
ought to give Secretary Loeb, who is
to accompany him, a chance to shoot a
secretary bird. AS a secretary bird,
himself, Mr.. Loeb has been a target for
seven years and he should in all fair
ness be given his chance.
