MOUNTAIN LIONS ARE SCARCE
Huntsmen In Northern Counties Of
California Have Practically Ex.
terminated the Breed.

Sacramento, Cal.-Reports to the
state comptroller indicate that the
huntsmen of the northern counties of
the state have practically extermi.
mated the mountain lions. Last month
only four mountain lions were killed
in California, as against close upon
200 for the same period a decade ago.
Three Of the four were killed In the
southern counties-one each In Los
Angeles, Tulars and Kern, the fourth
one being killed in Humboldt county.
The bounty paid for the pelts by the
state was $50 for June.
Indications are that efforts of stock
raisers during the past quarter OF a
century have resulted in the practical
extinction of the animal Bounties
have been paid upon $4,000 mountain
lions IN the past rs years.

Maj. Gen. George w. Goethals, gov
srnor of the Canal zone, arrived In
New York recently on board the s.
8. Pastores. He said he would offer
his resignation to take effect in No
vember. Colonel Goethals is accom-
panied by his wife and son Thomas,
and Is here on leave Of absence to
visit the Panama-Pacific exposition.
The colonel expects to be put on
the active army list, and IL this is not
possible, he will ask for his retire
ment with the rank of brigadier-gen-
eral. He told newspaper men that
he intended to visit the exposition as
q private individual, and desired that
no fuss be made about him by any of
the officials. That Mrs. Goethals is
anxious to leave the Canal zone per-
manently was shown by a remark she
made shortly after the ship left quar-
antine and started for the pier: Il
hope never to go back" she said.

COPPER AS HARD AS STEEL
Maine Blacksmith Claims to Have
Discovered Centuries Lost Art of
Tempering Copper.

Milbridge, Me.-James Walter Foss,
the village blacksmith, sixty seven
years old, says he has discovered the
centuries lost art of tempering cop
per. He shows copper knives that will
white long shavings from hickory
wagon spoke, and copper draw
shave that slices the knots in the
toughest ash hoop pole. He cuts a
mortise in an oak heart plank with
copper chisel and he has a copper
razor which the village barber says Is
about the slickest tool he ever han
died.
These tools were forged of discard
ed soldering coppers from the sardine
cannery, bits of copper wire and an
old copper kettle. They may be
ground, whetted or honed like steel.
Foss says he can make copper file,
or copper hand saw, or anything
with cutting edge and Of any degree
of hardness.
He says that he hopes to get enough
out Of his discovery to spend his last
days without work and then the world
is welcome to 1t. He is sixty-seven
years old and thinks he has worked
long enough, but until he made his
discovery 1t looked like years more of
labor for him.
