Elephant Shooting
In South India
BY REV. n. ID. MARTIN

The excitement Of elephant shooting Is
unequaled by any other sport. The ele-

usurper holds his place with little sign
of being driven from it in the popular
mind. but it really belongs to the ele-
phant
That which makes elephant shooting
the most exciting form OF sport lies not
in his being the true king of beasts.
but rather In the face that It is useless
to fire at an elephant at a greater range
than fifteen ysrds-indeed. most sports
men prefer to get within ten yards. The
difficulty of apprca ching to within so
| short a distance Of any wild animal Is
very great, especially IL 1t is endowed
with keen perception. as is the elephant.
Then there Is the danger. Each step for
ward brings the sportsman nearer an ami
NAL which can crush at once and without
effort. the life out of any human being
under zone of its ponderous feet.
| Great care and caution must be taken.
and the advance must be noseless. Not
that the herd is behaving noiselessly.
Bushes are being crushed aside. twigs
and branches being broken on every side
in the thick underground on which the
herd is browsing But all this does not
serve to help the stalker. Let a twiG
| snap beneath his foot and. although many
elephants have been crushing down the
bushes. there Is at once a deathly silence.
The elephant knows from the nature and
direction of the sound that II has been
caused bv some animal not OF his own
species. This stiffness. which is so sud
den. must be experienced to be under

no matter how long the interval may be

very life depends on his ability to refrain
from. breaking il. II is not tin confidence

commenced its feeding. that he can dare
to resume his cautious advance.
| All this time II is the herd that Is
being stalked. 1t is not till the hunter
is close to il that he can discover
which of the herd is fair game. To
fire at a female would be an unpar-
donable offense He must make sure
that IL is a tusker. and this is not
easy to ascertain in the dense under

begins in earnest. and effort must be
concentrated on getting to a place not
only close to the elephant. but from
which the brain may be reached. A

eral cavities in il. Only one of these
contains the brain. The others are

simply designed to tighten the great
weight which solid bone would be
weight so great that even an ele-
phant could not support 1t. The hunt
er should be an anatomist. He must
know in what part of the great head
the brain is situated, and where his
bullet must be directed in order to
reach 1t from the several different
, angles at which a fatal shot may be
fired.
1t is often the only possible course
to get within the required distance
and then await some motion on the
part of the animal which gves IA
vorable opportunity.
II is this long wait that furnishes
one of the peculiar charms of this
form of sport and renders 1t so ex-
citing; for such is the variety Afford
ed in elephant shooting that no gen
eral rules can be laid down. and In
each hunt different conditions arise. A
COW may be browsing toward the
hunter accompanied by it's sportive

or it may be that the tusker keeps
moving slowly ahead of the herd, CIV
ing no opportunity for a shot.

head and heart is brought into play.
and perhaps the most difficult of all
things for young sportsman is to
wait patiently. His nerves are tin

of the herd inspires him with a feel

But If he allows himself to act before
the moment for action has arrived
the whole days work is spoiled. The
wood rings with the loud report Of
his rifle. an elephant trumpets with
the pain caused by a misplaced bull

him. Before he starts he sees a fash.
and that Is ALA bullet in his brain has
ended his consciousness.
The tusker is dead. but the danger for
the hunter is not over. The wild alarm
of the rest Of the herd calls for the
greatest possible caution on the part of
their hidden foe, They know not what

Once it is over. there is room for but

JAPS and CHINESE
WAGE BOYCOTT WAR
Trade War in America Out
growth of Strained Rela-
tons in the Orient.

San Francisco, March "A boycott
on all japanese made goods and Jap
anese merchants in the western states
of America, in Canada and in Mexico,
proposed by the Chinese Six compa-
MES. will be met by a Japanese boycott
on Chinese goods, according to Yasu-
taro humane, Japanese consul general
here.
The Chinese boycott is being agita-
ted by prominent Cinnamon here and
IN other coast cities as a means of re-
taliation against Japan's recent de-
mands on China. The movement is
purely patriotic, it being hoped that
Japs in America, fearing the boycott,
may prevail on their home government
to recede from it's position.
BY advertising in the newspapers
circularizing their countrymen and in
other ways seeking to reach all the
Chinese in this country to advise them
against further dealings with Japs, the
Six companies representatives hope tc
have the boycott in effect at once.
In all the coast cities the plan is
already under discussion. The Six
companies seem to have succeeded in
San Francisco, Fresno, Los Angeles
and other California cities. In Seattle
the Chinese and Japanese recently
combined to build a new oriental dis
trict. The Chinese business mer
there frown on the boycott plan. While

SOUTH DAKOTA MAKES
IMPORTANT MOVE IN
RESTRICTING SALOONS
Voting on Proposition" Is Cut
Out of Law, Now Requiring
Majority of Voters.

Pierre, s, D., March There will be
many more dry towns in South Da-
kota this year as the result OF a bill
which passed the senate today, striking
out the words voting on the PROPOSE
ion" from the liquor license law of
1918. With these words in the law 1t
has not beer necessary to get a ma
jority of all votes in a town or city to
license saloons, but a majority only OF
the vote cast ca the license question.
Many towns OF h state are quite even
ly divided OF the saloon question and
will go dry under the new law. The
bill now has passed both houses.
A spectacular fight was staged in the
house Yer Swanson's bill amending
the printing law of 1918. The bill re-
and supplies to printers within the
state and provided for allowances for
corrections not the fault of the printer.
The bill was lost, % to so.
A resolution was passed by the house
providing for submitting a constitution
al amendment permitting the state or
counties to institute a system of rural
credits. The house also passed the bill
reducing auto licenses to IS.
The senate voted to submit to the
pepole the question of calling a conven-
ton to revise the constitution of the
state.
a combination in the senate is being
framed up to all special a~ppropria-
lions for the purpose of keeping the
total down to less than two years ago,
on the theory that it Will be poor poll
tics to increase appropriations, as well
as that of needed economy. Similar or
CARNATIONS nave been framed at many
former sessions. but have always gone
to pieces under the acid test.
The effort to get the new sheriff's
salary bill past an adverse committee
of the house Judiciary committee met
with 6pfaar and the Shar5+fS r-tfI -
along with the same compensation as
in the mast
