NEW HIGH PRICES

Rebound Has Inception in
Broad Demand for Cop

NEW YORK. May 20.-After a fort
night of hesitancy. in which no small
part of the March-April rise was can
celed, the stock market moved for
ward again this week. establishing
new high prices for a number of the
more prominent issues. The rebound
had its inception in the broad demand

Prior to this development specu-
lativc imagination had been fired by
indications and reports which

various branches of commerce and in
dustry.
Mergers of lnterests Expected.
=: Signs pointed to mergers of impor-
tant interests in the steel and iron
industry. the metal-producing and re-
fning trade and in other lines of busi-
ness where economic conditions since
the close of the world war seemed to
make such combinations advisable if
not imperative.
Other buflish factors included the
higher prices quoted for pig iron. fin
lshed steel and iron. coppers and kin
dred productions, together with the
stronger tone of the raw and refined
sugar markets and allied food special
ties

group in which constructive forces
seemed lacking. Although coalers
again ignored the miners strike, dis

Interpretations continued to be re-
strained by reduced car loadings and
likelihood of lower freight rates.
Partial reasons for the cheaper
money quotations were found in the
latest report of the Federal Reserve
Board. This disclosed the significant
fact that reserves had increased in
such states as Georgia and Texas, i'm

an inky night he heard the roars of
two animals, apparently in deadly
combat. In a short time the forest
was quiet so far as the battle was
concerned. When he was rescued the
next day his friends found the dead
bodies Of the two animals in the jun
gle. The lion had undoubtedly de-
Tended the man against the jaguar.
Men have met mountain lions and
slapped them in the face. Men have
lassoed the lion and ignominously
dragged him into a cage, ultimately
to land in the circus or the zoo.
Colonel Roosevelt records following
one all day. only to see it on the top
of a rise in the dusk as the return
to camp was made. In all cases the
lion has shown a curious desire to
stay near man, but never to do him
harm.
When a dog comes near every
fibre of the lions body becomes hos
tile. He is ready for instant action,
and never takes his eyes off the dog.
1t is then, when he Is oblivious to all
else, that the intrepid hunter can
boldly approach and give him a death
blow.

By PROF. N. j. ELROD,
Chair of Biology, University OF Montdno.
Mountain lions are not hostile to
man. Indeed, they are not only in
offensive to man but show a very
strange and remarkable instinct in
his favor. There is not an instance
on record where this animal has made
an attack on man except perhaps in
an isolated case where a man with
a pack was mistaken for a deer. There
are very many instances recorded
where mountain lions have befriend-
