NEW GOLD STRIKE.

According to the last issue of the
Mackay Miner considerable interest Is
centered in new gold strike that has
been made on Pass creek, near Mac
kay. Messers Lewis and Pierce, both
employed in the o. j. Wells saw mill,
had been prospecting in the vicinity
of the mill at odd hours and located a
few claims in Bear gulch, on which a
mineral deposit was found. Further
prospect work disclosed mineralized
porphyry dyke, in which shoots OF
iron were encountered the iron carry
ing the yellow metal in appeciable
quantities. Repeated assays shows the
pay streak to carry around $4,000 in
gold values. Other claims have been
located and the gulch is we'll staked
in the vicinity of the strikes.

SENATOR JIM GETTING BUSY.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 5.-Senator
Brady delivered today one of the
most forceful and logical tariff
speeches that has been heard in the
senate this session. He showed with
much clearness the discrimination in
the Democratic tariff bill against the
farmer and the producer of the west
in favor of the manufacturer of the
east. He held the close attention OF
the senate and was congratulated by
his Republican colleagues after fin
ishing his address. Senator Cummins
of Iowa said: ut was one of the
good, logical and sound addresses of
this session. My only regret is that
Senator Brady did not deliver it a
month ago, but he pursued the right
course by waiting until the ground
had been gone over fully" The tar
if bill will doubtless pass the senate
tomorrow.
After several hours debate on vari-
GUS amendments to increase the tax
on large incomes, the caucus finally
adopted an amendment proposed in
finance committee by Senator Smith
of Georgia, that provides additional
tax on incomes over $4,000, two per
cent additional on incomes over
$4,000. It would make the maxi

There are several different ways In

THE bona method is sufficiently exclt-

YOU may think ii absurd that a lion AT
the distance of eight or ten feet is a DIM

easy as II might seem. OF course. the
hunter is fairly safe. as the wall or
thorns of which the bona is composed Is
thick enough TO retard a charging hon

get in two or three shots, but IL a lion
should make a spring and land on top or

over the top of the hide. of course, but
could easily be broken down. as you can

is seldom, however that lion VIII jump
on the bona. and seldom in general that
one will charge the hunters refuge.
Where the danger comes in is hunting
down the wounded lion. which is nerve
racking experience.
The method of hunting by a bona
would be tedious were il not for the quail

the fire eaters in the lion killing trade 10

thorns protects the hunter from the Hon.
but Messrs. Folsom. Terry and Hine
agree that it was a nerve racking eX-
perience. especially when following the
wounded lions into the brush on the
morning after they had been shot from
the bona. When a lion is wounded. they
say. he invariably seeks the densest
thicket in the immediate neighborhood.

intruder who ventures after him. AS the

for he attempted it after lying alone one
night in a thorn bona and shooting four
lions before dawn, one OF which rushed

As Diamond Dick sometimes inspires a
westward and Indian fighting impulse IN
Young America, so did the magazine
stories Of big game affect the present trio
Of lion hunters Their less important
hunting adventures famed the flame. and
while they were moose hunting together in
Canada last year the love Of the sport
