STEADILY IMPROVE
SOUNDS DEFENSES
General Murray Predicts Gradual
strengthening of Forts of
Northwest.

PORT TOWNSEND, Wash. Aug.
16.-It is the opinion of General Ar
thur Murray, chief of the artillery
expressed here today, that the peo-
pie of the Pacific coast have reason
to be satisfied with the situation COW
ering defenses of the coast. and that
the department has achieved results
highly satisfactory. General Murray
departed this evening for Belingham
on an inspection visit of sites pro-
posed for fertilization there, after
having spent today at Forts Worden,
Flagler and Casey, comforting with
Colonel Garland N. Whistler on mat
ton of the Puget Sound artillery
district and possible betterments
II am convinced that all that is
possible to achieve with the means
given has been provided the Coast
in the way of artillery defense" said
the general. my visit on the Pa
cific followed a return to America
from Manila, where coast defense
work is going Onward satisfayc-
torily.
1T is not improbable that better
ments for the Puget Sound forts will
come along steadily, but the exact ma
ture of these can not be given. The
department is more than anxious to
advance the fertilization protection to
be extended every community. Its de-
sires are limited to the pleasure of
congress, however"

Likes the Road.

ALLENTOWN, Pa, Aug. 17.-Sit-
ting in the shade of a Tree outside
Mogenland church, il Lornill town
ship, todav was Jonn Keinert, the
Oldest tramp in the world. He would
not enter, but preferred TO sit outside
and listen to the sermon and the mu-
sic, which he could hear quite well,
despite the fact that he is 100 years
and months old. After the service
was over, "Old John" arose and
walked away with a swinging gait
"Old john Ke nert has an inter-
esting history, ard is a tramp by pref
erence. over rs years ago he came
from Germany and settled in ST.
Louis, where for hall d century he
was a respected citizen being en-
gagged in various business pursuits.
He raised a large family, and now
has IL sons in st. Louis and daught-
er in Philadelphia, all of whom are
well-to-do. Any of them would be
glad to have the old man live with
them, but since he became a tramp
any four walls make a prison for him.
Despite his great age, Keinert says
he can average IL miles day when
on his travels. His sight and hearing
are good, he is deeply religious and
always manages to beg enough on
Saturday to carry him over Sunday,
for he will not bag on Sunday.
He is ION the road" all through the
summer, and usually manages to find
a berth in some almshouse each win
ter. He is well known in this section
and a number of persons familiar
with his history vouch for his age. He
has brother now living who is 100
years and months old.

tives of the city are investigating the
death of William Saulters, a capitalist,

WOUNDED LION
FIGHTS HUNTER
TERRIBLE RISK IS RUN
Gun Bearer Saves the Life of Hunter
In British East Africa--Mcet
at Close Quarters.

LONDON. Aug. Flew hunters
have undergone such terrifying ex-
perience as that which befell Mr..
Harry Williams. the African explorer
near Nairobi last month.
The adventure reveals the risks run
by Mr.. Roosevelt and about to be run
by Mr.. John r. McCutcheon, car
toonist, who is on his way to the hunt
ing grounds.
Williams was attacked by a wound
ed lion, which mauled him terribly,
and would have killed him but for
the unexpected intervention of one of
his bearers. Mr.. Williams has related
the following account of his expert
ences;
Mr.. Selous and I had Joined Mr..
Mcmillan, but JuneS, l was out alone.

me, when | saw lion on the right,
about 900 yards away. He was
prowling along. and apparently did
not notice me. sut | could see by the
swish of his tail that he was an angry
beast.
II fired both barrels of my $50 at
him, one shot reaching him in the
flank. 1t was only slight flesh
wound but it paralyzed him for the
moment. and he st down on his
launches like a dog. After few
minutes he got up and went into a
bit of open bush.

might be in. | made for a big open
patch on my left front, hoping to get
better sight of him. The lion. how
ever, had been watching me from his
retreat, and at 200 yards distance he
sprang out of the bush and came
straight for me at a terrifying pace
Il waited until he was within 60
yards, and then let him have both
barrels. One shot missed him, but the
other lodged in the fleshy part of his
shoulder. The only effect was to in
furiate him more than ever. and |
now thought myself a dead man, for
there was no time to reload. and the
gun bearer was not actually in reach
with the other rifle.
ut was terrifying sight-the
brute's Jaws already open to seize me
by my left shoulder and breast-but,
with the courage born of despair, |
raised my rifle in both hands and
struck him across the side of the
head. Almost simultaneously he
ducked and seized my right leg. shak-
ing me from side to side as though |
had been a rat.

My gun bearer, the pluckiest
creature, black or white, that | have
ever read of, came up while the lion
was actually mauling me, showed the
rifle he carried down to me, and
asked me how to turn the safety
catch. l had sufficient presence of
mind to be able to explain in sec

bush five yards away, giving me
time to put two cartridges into the
rifle while still on the ground.
