Armies of the Unemployed

" PARADE of the unemployed in New York the
other day succeeded in collecting only 200 men to
march. In view of the frequent discussion of the
problem in New York the statistics gathered recently
in London have unusual interest estimated that
there 10000 unemployed in London alone and
that this number is increasing OF the regular trade
unonsts ten per cent of work at present
with the winter scarcely commenced The same con-
don is found in other cities throughout the kingdom
In Glasgow there more than 5000 families being
relieved, while list of 5000 families is awaiting
investigation. Dublin has upward Of 10000 citizens
who must receive immediate assistance The cities Of
Sheffield and Birmingham also have large numbers
not only of unemployed but Of people in absolute
destitution. The government actually proposes to
grant $500000 for bread to help tide this class over
the winter, condition which is scarcely approached
in New York. much less any Of the smaller cities Of
the United States In contrast to the meagre parade
Of unemployed in New York there are monster meet
ings in London every Saturday, Sunday and Monday
in Hyde Park, the Embankment or in Trafalgar
Square such as have never been seen in America.

Selecting Ammunition.

Ammunition for this battery can be obtained at
Nairobi If other bore rifles brought. say as
high 800 cordite express, the hunter should
bring sufficient ammunition of his Six hundred
cordite cartridges, nickel soft and split, are

tussle with wounded bull charging rhinoceros

hunter.
A 'Safari" demands a certain routine The Roose-
welt party will be in charge of the foremost East
African hunter, Mr. r. J. Cunningham, who took the
photos used in this article, and who is now making
extensive preparations for the "big hunt"
Such insures good sport and generally sue
cessfu safar" and there are other white hunters IN
Nairobi who know the ropes speak the language and
are thoroughly reliable in every way But for the
average hunter a native troupe will suffice.
The following are necessary:-One headman, two
gunbearers preferably Somas, who are absolutely
fearless; or Swahalis, who speak English, or
M'Kambas who speak French and German; three
cooks and personal servants four Askares for sentes
they carry rifles and ammunition hve porers, CHEEKY
natives who form the backbone of the expedition The
average number of porters for man on a two
months trip is thirty.
The salaries Of these men range all the way from
the Somalis' wage of $50 monthly to about $3.50 for
the porters Food and clothing must also be supplied
by regulations and according to general
custom The headman gunbearers and personal
wants receive clothes and extra half pound of rice

Vast Mena6erie.

In view Of the above outfit and it's cost, which
would hesitate to put under $4,000 for two months
hunt it will be easily apparent the ordinary
lean sportsman that hunters not blocking
others paths in East Africa and that the eleven and
half million menagerie promises to remain more
or less protected for some time to come.
SO much for the preparations of hunting; now for
the game If trophies be preserved the careful
treatment of heads and skins in the field is question
of supreme Importance Take, for instance tricky
skin lions. few hours delay in cleaning and
sknning may result in the slipping of the hair and
the ultimate spelling of the trophy.
The taxdermist's "frst aid" remedies consist Of
alum turpentine and parafne the last named for pre-
serving the skull and horns.
After the carcass has been skinned the pelt Is
feshed' and then ''pegged out" or stretched Alum,
preservatve is rubbed into and sprnkled literally
the surface When dry the skin is anointed with
turpentine protective against and folded
hair side inward The chief insect ravager is little
beetle about quarter of inch long, Of dark, dirty
color with transverse band of dull yellow, called
commonly the bacon beetle"
Trophies can be- into Nairobi during halt at
some base, where the agents dip them, dry them and
store them away in vermin proof lockers to await
packing and shipping instructions from the owners
And then it's Mombasa again and homeward bound!

socks khaki sun hat, and soft, wide brimmed hat;
three four pairs of strong toe-capped boots
pair of gum boots.

it would be well to include the anti-serum used for

AS regards rifles every hunter has, of course, his
own ideas, but the following make ideal combina-
tion for big game shooting-A double barrelled 800

styled in the vernacular of East Africa arc interesting

in passing, is the greatest safeguard African big

Ideal Hunting Season.
We will say that the hunt is made some time from
May to February. That is the ideal hunting season.
The heavy rains last from January till May and con-
