WANTED MORE ACTION.

And the Lioness Kindly Obliged the
Motion Picture Hunters.
Paul }. Rainey writes in the Outing
Magazine:
1.-THE lioness was q picture to watch.
She kept turning up her lip and growl-
ing savageIy and once or twice made
as if to charge. This lasted four or
five minutes and then Hemment said
he wanted more action and told one of
his camera boys to throw stone at
her. The boy threw the stone. and we
also got the action. She watched the
stone roll past her and then, without
even looking back and without warn
in.
"Never before in my life have seen
anything come so fast. 1t was all over
in the twinkling OF an eye. 1t SEEM
ed TO me that when she first started
she had her eye directly on me. but
caught sight of the camera two or
three yards to my left and charged
straight for that ! shot her full in
the chest when she had come probably
fifteen yards. but without any appar
ent effect. She came on with her low.

teen feet from the camera. when she
arose to strike it with her paw.

1T was a terrible moment. knew
she would have him before could get
another cartridge into my gun. but l
had not reckoned on Black. who was
sitting on the ground at my right. and
just as she was about to strike he shot
her over the left eye with bis 40.
The rate at which she was travelling
carried her to within six feet of the
machine when she fell dead. On ex-
animation We found that my bullet
had passed square through her lungs
from left to right and had lodged un-

near common things and common peO-

the ancient village Of Lechlade-so be-
gins the lovely description in the late
Henry Demarest Lloyds "Mazzini and
Other Essays"-tO be buried near
Kelmscott Manor House. where his
own country home had been.
In accordance with his wishes. the
windows Ot his town house were not
darkened. and no emblem of cOnven-
tional mourning was shown. There
was no hearse to receive his coffin as
It was taken out OF the train which
bore it to Lechlade.
Only down the hill came harvest

Wreaths of flowers were hung round

fruits of the year were spread round.

State Supreme Court.
The record in the appeal of the
Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul rail-
road from the judgment of the SUI
preme court of Minnesota in the rail
roads case against the city of Min
neapolis growing out of the construc-
ton of a bridge over the canal be-
tween Lake of the Isles and Lake
Calhoun, has been docketed in the
supreme court of the United States.
The case started in the Fourth ju-
dicial district for Hennepin county on
an agreed statement of the facts and
was appealed to the supreme court OF
the state, where the city won by
divided court, and is now before the
federal supreme court on writ OF
error to the highest court Of Mime
sofa. Judge Simpson wrote the opin-
ion of the court. but dissenting
opinion was written by Judge Start.
The question is whether the city or
the railroad shall bear the full ex-
pense of constructing the bridge
across the canal to carry the railroad
tracks which now rest on an embank.
ment, the city requiring certain
type of architecture in the bridge,
more expensive than the type usually
constructed by the railroads.
