The Gun with n Kick.

Concerning the matter Of the elephant
Miss Miller said she and Mr. and Mrs.
Bradley, other members of the Akeley
party. and Mr.. Akeley. with ten natives,
worked their way gradually down
slope into the wind toward a herd Of
six elephants. Mrs. Bradley picked one
and Miss Miller the other, while the men,
with elephant guns. stood by 10 help.
Mrs. Bradley hit but did not kill her
elephant. which stood head on and was
a difficult shot. Miss Miller brought
hers down. and then tho whole party
cut loose on the other. Ho managed to
get away.
Yes, tho gun was pretty heavy" Miss
Miller said. 81 had used lighter guns
down in Texas, where | lived until
was 15, but the first time ! shot off that
Springfield ] was very discouraged and
fet sure that everything was absolutely
safe but me. It had frightful kick"
Miss Miller told. too, of how. in the
Belgian Congo, In the general region OF
Lake Kivu, the expedition found a race
Of pyglnies. about four feet high, who
were sufficiently civilized TO dance for
the barty. but brought their bows and
arrows along: OF a race OF giants. the
Watusi. seven feet high. who are also

Those Peaceful GoriIIas.

II really didn't seem possible to those
who talked 10 Miss Miller that she had
done anything they knew she had done.
She appeared much too small. feminine
and tlmorous. When she said her name
was Martha and that she lived with
her family in Jersey, every ono believed
her.
How does it feel to run into a go
rlla?" some one asked
well" the girl replied "They re
simply enormous. i had my first glimpse
or one as some vines and bushes parted
down below our hiding place and saw
great, shaggy head and shoulder. But
there was nothing mean looking about
him when we saw him at home and not
frightened. even IL he did weight between
three and four hundred pounds. The ma
tives aren't afraid Of them. for they al
ways run away and they won't fight un-
less they are cornered."
One gathered that should one of tho
peaceful gorillas be cornered, however.
interesting things would ensue. Although
Jack Dempsey has seven inches in height
on one Mr.. Akeley baggcd, the gorilla,
with arms outstrctched. had a spread
from finger tip to finger tip or seven
feet eight inches, which ishn't bad for
little fellow Of five feet five inches.
Pressed about the incident OF the lion.
Miss Miller said
1T was a bona lion. That means
that he was a lion you wait for at night
in thorn hut. | sat up five nights until
long after midnight in the hut. with a
kill, topi. or antelope, outside ten or
twelve feet away. ON the fifth night ]

moon was not to come up until or 2
and I had lost the aluminium sight of
my Sprinfield 3o-30. But / waited and
he came. and got him through the

TAD JONESIS
FIRED AGAIN
BY YALE ALUMNI
Annual Rumor of Behead-
ing Party Circulated
When Princeton Wins

NEW YORK, Nov. 2S.--The jolly
old pastime Of firing Tad" Jones at
Yale has begun all over again. this
time just two days before the
Harvard game.
Tad has been let out, his contract
torn across the middle for con-
s.deratlon, Of course, and new
head coach all ready to say it on the
dotted line. You don't believe It?
Ask any graduate who SITS
around the fireside at the Yale
club. He Is several hundred miles
removed from the scene of activi-
tbs at New Haven and. therefore
knows all about them. Jones. he
will inform you, is out; that is. If
be docs not win the Harvard game
4 Saturday. This done, all will be
foygiven--until next year. BY that
time, Tad can get ready to have
himself fired all over again. 1t mas
become an annual custom, Ike
meeting the income tax collector
halfway and washing behind the
ears.
Singularly enough. the decision to
get rid Of Jones, seldom. if ever,
comes up for consideration before
the football committee at New
Haven.
1t is the Yale alumni that is in
imical to Jones. They contend and
with some reason, that Tad has had
remarkable material since he re-
turned to control Yale football in
1920, yet has had nothing to show
for It beyond the victory over Frin-
ce;on in the three seasons he has
coached the team.
This time they feel particularly
aEgrieved. They Travelled down to
fsinceton in high feather, saw Yale
oNtgain Princeton, lead in first
downs by 13 to 8 and lose on the
eloreboard by 3 to 0.
This rather sour performance has
generated some real activity among
Yale men in New York. They are
now honestly and candidly out after
Jones scalp and there is serious
question of doubt as to whether Tad
will be able to make his contract
stand up for the year 1t has to run
If he fails to beat Harvard.
