BUFFALO. WORTHY
FOE OF LION
The Buffalo Is the Most Dangerous Of
African Game, Says Colonel Roose- :
welt, and Altogether Harder to
Kill Than a Lion.

=. Kermit also shot three buffalo bulls,
Tarlton helping him to finish them off,
for they are tough animals, tenacious Of
life and among the most dangerous OF
African game. One turned to charge,
but was disabled by the bullets of both
of them before he could come on. Il
Far]ton, whose experience n the
hunting field against dangerous game
had been large, always maintained that.
although lion. hunting was the most
dangerous sport, because hunted lion
was far more apt to charge than any
other animal, yet that when a buffalo
bull did charge, he was more dangerous
than lion, because harder to kill or
turn.
Where the zebra and other game are
abundant, as on the Athi Plains, lion do
not meddle with such formidable quarry
as buffalo; on Heathly's farm lions
sometimes made their lairs in the same
papyrus swamp with the buffalo, but
never molested them. In many places,
however, the lion preys largely, and in
some places chiefly, on the buffalo. The
hunters of wide experience with whom
cQnversed, men like Tarlton, Cunning
ham and Horne, were a unit in stating
that where a single lion killed a buffalo
they had always found that the buffalo
was COW or immatured bull, and that
whenever they found a full-grown bull
thus killed, several lions had been en-
gagged in the job.
Horne had once found the carcass of
a big bull which had been killed and
eaten by lions, and near by dead
lioness with a great rip in her side,
made by the buffalo's horn in the fight
in which he succumbed. Even a buffa-
10 cow, if pitted against single lion,
would probably stand an even chance;
but OF course, the fight never is fair,
the lions aim being TO take his prey
unawares and get death grip at the
outset; then unless his hold is broken,
he cannot be seriously injured.

Drugs Is Drugs"

The writer took Doctors prescrip-
tion to the drug store to have it filled.
In some way this piece of paper became
torn in half, so that when the patron
handed the druggist the first piece, that
public servant at once measured out the
ammonia salt it called for and placed the
small vial before his customer.
''How much?" asked the patron.
"Ten cents"
"Oh, beg pardon!' said the purchas-
ed, at this juncture finding the remain
der of the prescription in his pocket.
"This piece says to add enough water
to the other to make four ounces"
Every we'll, "rejoined the apothecary,
dumping contents Of the small vial into
a four ounce bottle and adding the re-
quired water. "There you are, sir; 40
cents more, please"
"What! Ten cents for the ammonia
and 40 cents for the water?"
Exactly. The doctor's name written
after the water makes it prescription,
and we put up no prescriptions under SO
cents. "-Judge's Library.

WenzeI HavIichech, Whom Dick SteinhOffer

Again Taken Into Custody Armed
Viii, Rifle and Rock.
(Minot Reporter. July 12.)

(Minot Reporter July l2)
Deputies from the sheriff's Office yes
terday made a trip to the HavIicheck
farm, about six miles north Of Minot
and took Wenzel Havlicheck into custody
at the request of his parents. Havli-
check has twice before been an inmate
of the state hospital for the insane and
yesterday when taken into custody he
was carrying rife and heavy rock.
He has also made some warlike declar-
ations and had been giving his people
trouble.
Havlicheck is about 80 years old and
has lived with his parents on their farm
north of the city. He had an examina-
tion as to his sanity by the insanity
board of Ward county some time ago
and was committed. Later he was dis
charged from the asylum as cured. He
was committed second time and some
time ago his father went down and made
arrangements with the asylum author
tiles to bring his son home. He was to
have the privilege of returning the boy
at any time he desired.
This week young Hav]icheck again
became unmanageable and his people
appealed to the sheriff to take him in
charge: He will probably be returned
to Jamestown.

A failing tiny nerve-no larger than
the finest silken thread-takes from the
heart it's impulse, it's power, its regular
ity. The stomach also has it's hidden,

His prescription-Dr. Shoop's Restora-
tive-is directed straight for the cause
of these ailments-these weak and fal-
tering inside nerves. This, no doubt
clearly explains why the Restorative
has of late grown so rapidly in popular
ity. Druggists say that those. who test

is RUMORED THAT
JEFF ASKS RETURN
Lengthy Report With Manager Berger
Leads to That Report, and Both
Berger and Jeffcies Refuse to
Verify or Deny.

A press special of the 9th inst. from
Los Angeles, Cal., says: That Jim
Jeffries plans to ask johnson for a
return fight was the report today fol-
lowing an extended conference between
the defeated heavyweight n d his
manager, Sam Berger.
Jeff has talked but little since he
went down in defeat, but he has said
that he believes he could do better if
he were not under such a severe nerv-
Gus strain as at the "battle at Reno. "
When asked, after the long talk with
Berger, whether he intended challeng-
ing johnson again, Jeff refused to deny
or affirm the report. His silence is
taken by many as a confession of the
rumor.
Sam Berger, diplomatic usual,
begged to be excused from answering
questions.
All day long and even after the even
ing dinner hour there was continual
string of visitors at the Jeffries home.
Jeff gives no encouragement in re-
gard to the stories of his being doped
before the fight. He feels that he did
his best, but realizes that his showing
was lame one.
mo, don't think that anybody
doped me-" said Jeff. "The old man
couldn't fight, that's all. didn't feel
right when climbed into the ring, but
for that matter l hadn't been myself
for two or three days previous.
Cant you see how it made me feel
to have people run up to me and say:
You got to lick that niger, Jim. I've
got my last cent bet o.. you.' I heard
this a dozen times every hour Then
there was all that talk about me being
the hope of the white race The way
this was drummed into me daily was
enough to set man crazy.
"Of course, l was nervous and excit-
ed. Under different conditions I might
have showed up better. don't think
that anybody doped me, thought
know they did not.
Sam Berger, who has been constantly
with jeff for over year, does not be-
lief that his charge WINS doped, drugged
or mo]ested in any way.
"It was the immense responsibility
resting upon his shoulders that caused

in Reno. Then visited johnson and
asked him If he didn't want to cut the
purse differently. He agreed to cut it
so and so. went to Jeff. was the
only agent between them. No one else
knew thing about it, Jeff refused to
cut it so and so, but finally agreed to a
cut Of 40 and 60, which scheme of d.
vision was adhered to-
Rickard showed checks for 800, 600
and said that he would bet the whole
amount that his estimate Of the gate
receipts was correct. -.-.
''He drew house that paid $27O,
775," he said.
"We still have a sixth interest in the
moving pictures and the fight against
them is only going to make more money
for u.s." continued Rickard. 'It's the
best advertising in the world.
"There is no ordinance in this city
which can prevent the showing of the
pictures. We will show them in San
Francisco all right.
''These crooked politicians give me
pain. l don't know who is behind Nc
Carthy, but i know that this country is
getting to be run by crooked politicians.
This is certainly one crooked town..
"Why," said Jim Corbett yesterday,
"Jeff was worried to death over that
fight. He was alright physically, but
he was not all right mentally"
Corbett left on the Overland Limited
at 10:40 for New York. His stunt on
the stage will be to tell how johnson
licked Jeff at Reno and the reason why.
Tex Rickard has received letter
from Oscar Hammerstein, offering him
a theatrical engagement at 81, 500 a
week.
"What do you know about that?",
said Tex. II tore up the letter. No
stage for mine''

RICHARD TELLS OF
DEALINGS FOR FIGHT
He Had Both Men Signed Before They Met
in New York and Other Promoters Who
We're on Hand Never Had
Look In.

A Frisco special of the 9th inst. says
that Tex Rickard had just barred all of
the dealings which led up to the match
ing of Johnson and effries in the great
est pugilistic battle of the century. He
says that he had both fighters signed
up two days before the bids were put
in and that no other promoter had a
chance to land the mill. "a
Richard also told of the cutting of
the purse, and gave out many little in
side stories concerning the fight which
have never been printed. He says:
Il had both: fighters signed up two
days before Uncle Tom McCarey and
others put in their bids in New York.
There were no bids considered. The
promoters were doubled-crossed. They
didn't have a look in; signed both
johnson and Jeffries through Berger.
Berger said I'd have to take Gleason in
with me before l could get Jeff. l
agreed to do this. Whether the other
side had anyone else in with it don't
know. do not believe that Cofforth
had cent interest with Gleason, and
he certainly did not with me.
Each fighter thought the other was
being double-crossed. First, l gave
Jeff a bonus Of $4,000, he thinking
that johnson was getting the worst of
the deal. Then l gave the same
amount to the "Smoke.
II paid jeff his $4,000 thirty days
before the fight. l loaned johnson
$4,000 before the fight and the night
after the fight paid him the remaining
$4,000. Bids were opened, but no one
had a chance. 1t didn't make any
difference how high they went, we had
them cinched.,
"All those fellows who travelled to
New York We're on wild goose chase.
Before the fighters signed had to put
up $22, 200 with Stakeholder Bob Muir
ply, the New York hotel man, who
was agreed upon and l had to lend
johnson $780,"
Rickard exhibited Johnson's receipt
for the $40, 900 bonus and said he was
going to keep it, with the one from
Jeffries, as souvenirs. 81,
"Now, as to the cutting up of the
purse, said Rickard. 1T was decided
to cut it rs and 25. This agreement held
until about three days before the fight

BOies penrose's Story.

Senator Boies Penrose, at dinner at
the Philadelphia Club, said of move
ment that he opposed:
1T promises incredible things. In
fact, it makes me think ofJack Trave re-
of Pike county.
Jack is an old man now. He re-
members the time when bears were as
plentiful on the barren mountains as
rattlers still are. Once when l was
fishing at Portland Lake, asked him
if he had ever had any remarkable
adventures with bears.
"'Well, no, SENATOR said the old
man, as he filled his pipe with long plug
I can't say that ever had much to do
with the bears hereabouts. Wunst, in
my sparkin' days, me and bear got
together 'twan't nothin', though.
"'It all come about over old Sukey,
our COW. She had bad habit of stay
in out late at night. Then I'd have to
go to the wood and fetch her home to
the milkin'.
"'Well, one dark night when want
ed to go sparkin', Suke was late ag g'in,
and it certainly riz my dander. Istart-
ed out after her, cussin, blue streak,
and in about an hour heard her snort
in and putin in the thicket.
/" I'D missed my girl by that time,
and was riled clear through. I cut a
saplin' and went for old Sukey. 1t was
too dark to see, but l knew her shuttle,
and l grabbed her by the ear and began
to lay on with my stick just about
proper.
1.-The old cow showed fight. She
wrestled me around considerable. But
l was mad-mad all overland I half
pushed and half drug and half carried
her to the barn, and there l tied her up
tight and fast, and MIXED her in the
dark. Afterwards l went to bed.
"'I certainly did have to laugh,
though, when l come down the next
mornin'. Gosh burned if I hadn't
fotched and MIXED big she bear. -
