Mayor Crurnp in Earnest.

Mayor Crump is going after the pick
pockets. and housebreakers with ven
geance from now on, and ii his plans
are carried out as he desires not one will
be left in the city in the next ten days.
In speaking Of his intended crusade
against criminals last night the mayor
said.
II earnestly request the citizens Of
Memphis to watch carefully when they
board crowded street cars. 1t is on
crowded street cars that the pickpockets
are doing the greatest harm. II the
people will follow this advice for the
next ten days we will either ran down
these criminals or make it so unprofta-
BILE for them that they will be willing to
move on % better fields for their opera
tions.
For political reasons these people
feel that Memphis is an easy town to
work in. And right here | want to say
that we are going to clear this town of
thieves and pickpockets if it takes ten
times the number Of police we have to
do it.
For the past month the town has
been infested with what is known as
street car dips, 4 The police believe
that these same criminals when watched
too closely on the street corners get fur
ther away and operate on the streets.
but invariably get back to the cars wlion
an oaf Srtunity affords.
Their system is to board a car as the
are getting on, and create
Jam, and then operate on their victim,
whom they have been following. IL
hey fail in this they sometimes ride
but a distance and then return.
The police can account for the regu-
ar winter holdups from negroes and lo-
,al men, but the mayor believes that the
arge number Of nimble-fngered street
sar artists are here for political reasons,
md he is emphatic in his assertion that
hey must leave the city at once. ~

sIMuLrANEous BENEFITs.

This was feat that any old hunter
might justly be proud of, for no white
man has ever before stalked and shot at
bongo. There are only two cases on
record of white man shooting bongo
with the aid Of the natives and their
dogs.
So pleased was one Of the residents
here with the success Of the youth that
he presented Kermit with fine speci-
men Of the male bongo, and SO the
Smithsonian Institution will have a
complete family group, the only one in
the world.

A LON SPARED
Last Safari in British East Africa is
Taken.

r-~~H-@~~
Nairobi, British East Africa, Dec. IL.
"A long stream Of porters came wind
ing across the veldt toward the station
at Nairobi, looking for all the world
like string OF ants The Stars and
Stripes were held aloft by native giant,
and the sound Of horns made strange
discords with the chanting of the weird
and elusive Safari song. Shortly Col.
Roosevelt arrived on the back OF his
favorite horse, Tranquility 1t was
the end Of his last trip in the British
East African protectorate.
This safari, the fourth to be made
out Of Nairobi, gave Col. Roosevelt and
his party an opportunity to witness an
exciting hunt at a. E. Hoy's farm at
Sirogi in the Gausu Ngusho country,
the spearing of lion by Nandi war
riors
Seventy Of these spearsmen had been
asked te take part in the drive, and
they assented readily, for when a war
rior spears q lion he becomes a leader

GIFTS ONE WARRIOR.

The warriors gave chase to lion, a
fully grown black named one. They
drew TO within some twenty yards Of
him, and the spectators on horses closed
up to see the kill, yet remaining at a
sufficient distance not to interfere with
the spearmen's movements. Three
times the lion made savage charge at
the now stationary warriors, but stopped
short each time with name bristling
roaring in impotent rage at his tor
mentors.
One last desperate effort, and he drove
directly at the line, only to fall with ten
spears quivering in his body, But in
that brief moment he managed to drag
down one Of the natives, his claws sink
ing into the mans flesh.
The luck Of Kermit Roosevelt has
been proverbial. While Col. Roosevelt
was hunting with Lord Delamere, Ker-
NIT went off with p. B. Cole and bis
Wanderobo warriors. The warriors are
adopts at killing bongo, which are very
rare and only. to be found in the forests.
In a short space Of time the younger
Roosevelt had secured large and fine
specimen Of the female bongo and one
Of the young immature bongo.

BRIGHTWOOD HOPES

Following Speech By Chair
man Smith, Citizens Asso-
citation Is Optimistic.

Members Of the Brightwood Citizens
Association today are sangUine that in
the near future many OF the proposed
public improvements which they have
been advocating viii be favOrably acted
upon by Congress
The hopes of the members were raised
by Samuel w Smith, chairman Of the
House District Committee. who deliv-
cred an address before the BrightwOOd
association last night, urging q public
service commission for the District, re
clamatiOn Of the Anacostia fats, and a
public park extending from the East
ern Branch TO Rock Creek Park
Mr. Smith, after briefly mentioning
the existence here OF gas. telephone,
electric light and street car corpora
tons, said that since such public ser
vice corporations are regulated and
guarded in other places, they should
be regulated and guarded here He said
that the only way to ascertain If the
public service corporations are conduct
ing their affairs properly is 10 have a
public service commission to examine
carefully into the methods OF these con-
Germs.
Upon suggestion that the members Of
the proposed commission should be non
residents Of Washington. a member
challenged the idea Mr. Smith replied
that the plan of nonresident members
for the commission would eliminate any
chances for embarrassment OF charge
that they would have conflicting inter
ests in the discharge Of their sworn du-
ties
If one OF the Commissioners Of the
District should report favorably on the
present rate of gas" argued Represen-
tatfve Smith some Of his peighbor
would accuse him OF having stock IN
the company.
MI. Smith concluded his remarks with
q strong Clea in favor Of Government
ownership OF teleETaphs and the adop-
ton Of the telepost IF the Government

Il should follow that the Government
should handle kilograms. He said that
