story of Gen. Booth
With the death OF General Booth !
many stories of the great religious
leader are being told. Among his most
engaging weakness was his pride in
\ the ID. c. i. degree conferred on him
/ by the University of oxford. When il
was conferred there was complete
absence Of tn undergraduate horse
play and Raging which usually dis
I tinguish such q gathering. This was
very striking especially in view of thu
well known objection of many promin-
ent members of Convocation to the
offer of the degree.
When General Booth left the Uni
/ versity after the ceremony he assisted
on wearing his academic robes in the
train.
Young prince Democratic
The Prince OF Wales when he goes
10 Oxford University in October will
occupy the quarters in the tower OF
Magdalen College. which were re-
served for the son of Henry VII, in
the fifteenth century. the last time a
Prince of Wales attended Magdalen
Z College.
The precendent set by his grand
father, King Edward. will thus not be
followed.
The latter when attending Christ
Church lived. not in the college, but
at Frewen Hall beside the Union.
The young prince will thus get more
of the undergraduate life than his
grandfather did, but the proposal to
have him take part in the college
games has been rejected. probably
on the grounds that participation
would be altogether too democratic
for the future ruler of the British
Empire.
Elephants Are Protected.
-. The chase after the American ele-
plant poacher Rogers in the Lado
Enclave in Central Africa has brought
into prominence the quiet work which
, is being done there to prevent the ex-
l. nd
NAL.
Something like 10000 elephants
| bearing ivory valued at $4,000 were
, killed by hunters and poachers during
/ 1908 and 1909.
, For many years the ivory supplied
r by natives from elephants which had
, long been dead supplied the demand
but this supply was soon practically
: exhausted and the hunt which began
, for ivory would have rendered the ele'
. plant extinct had it not been for en-
i. ergetic action by the government.
nj No one may now shoot sn elephant
in certain restricted districts. nor a
COW with calf anywhere. For bull Gle
4 plant shooting Ehe number is se'
: stricted TO two year, and heavy
I license Is required.
. The licensed hunter may not kill ar
Z animal bearing less than forty pounds
OF ivory. but the poacher chooses any
| thing with tusks. The COW tusks make
i the best billiard balls. and even the
\ immature bulls do not escape the il
c licit hunter
l.. In spite of all these restrictions 3
v large number OF elephants is still
! killed in out of the way places. II
