w. N. Erwin of the bureau of plant
industry OF the department OF agr1-
culture, and Major Burnham, who has
spent years in Africa and accompanied
ex-President Roosevelt on part OF
his travels, argued in favor of the
Broussard bill to import wild and do
mestic animals into the United States.
Such animals according to the bill,
must prove useful either as food, or
as beasts of burden. All the witnesses
declared that many of the animals IN
Africa could easily be raised In this
country.
"The hippopotamus can be led and
fed on a milk bottle" declared Captain
Duuuesne. who formerly served with
the Boer army. "The zebra would in
three or four generations become so
tame that he would meander into your

Children.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, March %.
For the protection of the lives and
limbs of the host of young Missou-
rians. Governor Hadlev took active
steps for the promotion of quiet and
sane Fourth IF July celebration this
year. He mailed letters to the police
boards of st. Louis. Kansas City and
st. Joseph, instructing them to see
the dealers in explosives, cannon
crackers, etc, and notify them to hold
down theil stock this year, inasmuch
as the people will not be permitted
to use them.
The governor expects this to do
much to promote the safe observance
of the day. If the explosives are not
for sale then there can be no acci-
dents to young Missourians who want
to celebrate the birth of their coun
try. When the time arrives the gov
ernor will request the boards to is
sue rigorous orders forbidding the
use of explosives within the city
limits
Last year there were IA deaths and
32S accidents on the Fourth of July
This is too high a total, the governor
says. for the state to pay, and he pro
poses that this Fou h OF July shall
pass without a casualty if possible.
