KILLING EAST AFRICA GAME
Accounted Greatest of Fun to Murder
 Big Animals of That Country
From the Westminster Gazette.

iOi1 tflt NftSlniihSNtl bhZcitc.
 D. D. Lyell. in his little book. 'Nyasa- Ia nd" tells us that quite 300 sporting par ties visit British East Africa annually, so that if each party spends a minimum of e300, that will mean q total sum of es0,0o0 Most of this large sum goes into the hands of the natives.
 In Nyassland the sporting licenses are much more moderate in cost than In Brit ish East Africa. In the latter the sports man pays &50 for shooting a very limited number of each species, and there is an extra charge of G10 for shooting one ele- phont and e20 for d second elephant To shoot one giraffe there is also a spe- eiaI license required of el0. Many dis. tricts are closed for certain game In Brit lsh East Africa, and to find elephants ono mas to travel long way.
 Elephants. however, we are told, arc still numerous in the wilder parts c Nyasaland, and are particularly abund- ant in central and northefn Angoliland They are usually founA in herds of iron four or five to over hundred. Old males often lead a solitary existence and wan Ger about by themselves. These animals as q rule have the heaviest ivory. The heaviest single tusk known weighed 23, pounds, and the longest Il feet 5lz inches Elephant shooting. in MT. LyelI's opinion is the hardest sport in existence, and

 How can we market this car at this price? By making 0000 year. Increased production brings decreased selling prices There is the in six small words.
 France is famous for its automobiles, yet we turn out in year many as all the French fac tories combined The United Kingdom is equally famous for motor cars, yet almost double the com bined output of all the English factories under the The Overland factories alone, make nearly three times as many the combined factories of Germany. And when you total the annual automobile produc- ton of such countries Holland, Russia and Sweden, you find they do not make many some of our individual dealers handle in single year.
 We have agents in states than most American factories have in all the United States. We export than the annual output of any automobile factory in Europe. Some of American dealers alone take more cars annually than most American factories turn out in year. That IS what 4O,0OO cars year means And that, and only that, IS why make and market for $9S5 what others forced to get $l2OO for.
 We want to place the utmost importance on the fact that the big value of this found in the vital things that really establish big vaue' That s such things the long wheel base the big motor, the spen did axle unit the large and roomy five passenger body-the springs the brakes the high grade bearings, the pressed steel frame, the complete equipment, etc. Any man who pays over $985 for a completely equipped, 30 horsepower, five passenger touring of this type and size is just wasting money.

 Since the announcement of this 1t has become almost impossible keep account of daily mail To the separate pieces of first class matter would be impractical About all we do is to check off the truck loads of U S. mail bags and lett go that Our annual production will be 10000 cars. Our October production schedule called for l5O day, which we are shipping right We could ship 800 day if we had them. For the last 30 days have been 5000 behind our immediate shipping ders.

 Practically every important 1913 announcement has been made careful examination of these announce mens will prove precisely what have been claiming that there is not S1200 car built that has any practical value to offer than this one for $985.
 And here are the comparative facts which support this seemingly bold statement.
 Automobile values must be looked at from several different angles. You consider not only the price, but what that price buys you. You must take into consideration the power, the strength, the beauty, the construction, the sze the appearance and the equip ment of the car You must judge by the material in it the workmanship on it; the methods employed to produce it. and last but least the facilities be- hind the production methods.

Electrical discharges Of hundreds OF
thousands OF volts. electric globe burn

raphy. and other electrical phenomena &C
high pressures and frequencies. and the
wonders OF liquid air. were demonsuated
IN lecture by Prof. L. H. Wood and
Henry L Transform at washington
Foreign Missionary Seminary yesterday.
The electrical discharges at high volt
age and frequencies were seen hashing In
long specter-like streams. which snap

ming BY changing the terminals. the
flashes resembled small electric foun-
tains Mr.. Transform, holding his hand
near one Of the terminals. received into
his body a current OF at least 10000 volts
without injury.
A wonder 10 the audience was the fry
ing OF an esq without any visible power,
but there was heard the sizzling Of the
egg, and the low hum OF the transmitter.
which was not connected with the pan in
any way. Two hundred Of the audience
heard through the receiver Of the wire
less telephone a voice that came from
the transmitter in another part Of the
building.
The room being darksned while wire
less telegraphy was demonstrated, the
auditorium was illumined by the bril-
liancy OF the discharge. the noise OF
which was deafening.
The lighting OF an incandeseent globe
by wireless was one OF the features Of
the lecture. A hollow copper ball noat-
ing In a Jar Of water was rotated with
great rapidity, and a heavy copper ring
was suspended IN mid-air. and then
thrown upward several feet by wireless.
Liquid air demonstrations were also
given.

Prof. Wood has found an electrical
