AFRICAN GAME FOR AMERICA
4 Plan to Restock Our Wasted Pre-
serves With Animals from the
Dark Continent

New York. n Y, March 3.-To re-
stock the United States with game.
thus increasing the food supply and
incidentally striking a blow al the
leather trust is the purpose of an ex-
pedition which set out for South Afri-
ca yesterday under the leadership of
Major F. r. Burnham. Among those
interested in the project of importing <
animals. fish and fowl 10 America are
said to be former Chief Forester Gift
ford Pinchot. John Hays Hammond
and Congressman r. F. Broussard Of
Louisiana.
y bill has been introduced in Con-
gress authorizing the secretary OF ag-
riculture TO expend 100000 in the inn
portation of wild animals. but, il
will not become law this session. the
men behind the project provided the
funds for the preliminary expedition
of Major Burnham.
In the semi-arid regions of Africa
explained Major Burnham. there are
many varieties of animals that thrive
under conditions that would be impos-
sible to the ordinary domestic animals
They can live off the rough country
and are harder than goats Their
meat is excellent as food.
For instance, the bush buck would
thrive in the foothill regions and semi
arid deserts of the southwestern sec
! tion Of the United States. and would
become a source of profit. This is a
! browsing animal, about the size Of q
/ deer. Its flesh is of a fine flavor and
| its hide makes one of the best and
strongest feathers known. 1t is com
monty used by the Beers to make fore
| lashes on their exceedingly long OK
and stage whips.
1T is the purpose of my expedition
! to secure and bring to America some
! of the smaller and more useful ami.

come domesticated to distribute then

TO STOP SPREAD OF CHOLERA
United States and Italy Unite in Insti-
tutins Most Drastic pre-
cautions.

New York City.-The guard against
the spread of cholera in this
country became international in its
scope when it became known that
both the United States and Italy had
united in instituting the most drastic
precautions. Alarmed at the number
of deaths from the plague in New
York harbor the federal government
has organized new system of inspec-
ton at all the important Atlantic
coast cities. To New York City spe-
cial representative of the marine hos
pital service of the United States was
sent to supervise the examination and
treatment of suspected cases. Italy
has come to the aid of the United
States, according to statement made
by Doctor Doty, by detailing surgeons
of the Italian navy to all ships bound to
America from plague infected ports.
