And wonder is Pope Llulla, with his sword and his thin, sensitive lace. He is a grandee and a duelist. He has been in more than 30 af- fairs of honor, and it is said he started a cemetery in order to have Ia convenient place to bury his vic- tims. This is the cemetery of St. Vincent de Paul You may see it if you go out to 1922 Louisa Street.
 You know who that fellow is, the one with the white hair and the laugh-wrinkles growing out of his eyes? He is jotting down innumer- able notes and impressions. He loves this place. Presently, those notes will be put into a book, and it will last for all time and be known as Life on the Mississippi" :" His pen name is Mark Twain.
 Ney and Hood are next. They have much in common, these two old warriers walking the streets of old New Orleans I think from time to time they steal glances at one another, of admiration and wonder. That they belonged to diff ferent generations make no differ ence. On the field of battle, both were past masters at leading for lorn hopes
 Now comes Oscar Wilde, with his flowing hair and trailing sun flower, talking confidently, though just shade too wittily He, too, came to New Orleans for awhile. It puzzled him that so colorful and fascinating a subject as the Negro had not been more firmly identi- fled in literature

 The Spadeas met in Chicago where she'd arrived from Wiscon- sin to learn Michelangelo's tricks at the Academy of Fine Arts. She designs in so many directions so naturally that she's found she doesn't know her own strength.
 A Hat, For Example
 That crushed ice cream cone women have been wearing as a hat is an example. Mrs. Spadea made one for herself four years ago Forgot about it. Then dug it out to put on a mannequin in a display window. Month later simi- lar hats popped up all over New York Maybe here's no relation, but anyway Mrs. Spadea eventually saw hats like hers selling by the hun dreds in bargain basements.
 So shes probably good fashion weather vane. Which brings up pleasant news for the ladies. Just now she has a feeling (she doesn't know why) that she should add half an inch to her mannequins' hips. That could start a new style trend-and one more comfortable to the ladies.

INCREASE SEEN IN BIG GAME IN FOREST. AREAS
 
Figures Given on Wild Ani-- mals in Tongass and
 Chugach Forests

Most of the big game animals are making encouraging gains in num- )ers on the 158 National Forests,
 he Washington. office. of the Forest Service, U. s. Department of Agri- 'ulture, reports.
 Careful big game counts and esti- mates during the past winter show a total of 1,742,000 antelope, bear, deer, elk, moose, and mountain goats and bighorn sheep as compared to l,493,000 a year ago. Forest rangers and other forest officers who made the census" travelled by boat and horseback, on snowshoeS and even by airplane to estimate the over wintering herds so that proper hunting seasons and feeding needs could be determiner for various areas. The national forests now pro- vide the principal big game hunting grounds of the nation.
 While this years total game popu- lation shows an increase of 150 per- cent in the last IA years since 1924 part of this gain may be the result of more accurate and intensive methods of counting and estimating Recent additions of land to the Ma tional Forest system also may 'ac- count for some of the increase.
 Although the, National Forests contain large areas of big game raJge. and the management of wildlife is giving encouraging re- suits, the situation is by no means all rosy" says F. A. Silcox, Chief of the Forest Service. Lack of win ter range available to game animals severely limits the numbers many of the forests can support. Increases have been somewhat spotty, and

 Just as timber is being consid- cred as a continuing resource, so wildlife in the National Forests is being managed for a sustained or continuing yield" says. Silcox. "Wifd1ife is being managed to bal ance and improve the returns, of the forests for recreati ton, sport and public profit. Technical experts, of the Biological Survey have aided in the development of game manage- ment plans for a number of areas
 Antelope, deer and elk show the largest increases since l924.o AL though antelope are considered a plains rather than a forest animal it is estimated that about g percent of all those in the nation, oriimore than 17O00. are now reported Qn the National Forests. The largest hum Der of antelops is found on the Coconino Forest in Arizona and the Lenhf Forest in Idaho
 Deer are the most common of all big game in the national forests, numbering 1,450,000; elk number 138, 1000; moose 6,200.

 In 1886, flights were made over Mt. Mckinley for photographic work, and in 1885, the ice cap was crossed from Carcross, Y. T., to Yak utat, Alaska, with the party on the ice for 84 days. That trip was per haps the most enjoyable Wash burn said.
 In 1884, Mt. Crillon was climbed hat peak having an elevation of l2,725 feet. Juneau was the base of operations for that trip.

TOPEKA, Kans. Oct. 2l.-The ad-
ministration's farm production control

sponsors. Pope of Idaho. 1t gives prom
Use of being similar handicap for the
other, Senator George McGill of Kan
sas. Senator Pope was denied renom-
ination. Senator McGill, renominated
without opposition. is facing defeat at
the hands of the Kansas farmers and
his Republican opponent, Clyde M.
Reed.
For unless all present signs are
wrong, enough OF the farmers in this
State are sore enough to sink Mr.. Nc
Gill. This does not mean that all the
farmers are going to vote Republican
in Kansas. A good many of them have
always been Democrats. and still more
of them will be swung into line for
McGill by the desire of continuing
the Federal subsidies now paid for
compliance with the administration s
farm program under the Pope-McGili
Act.
Thirty-cent corn and 5O-cent wheat,
with the crops none too good at
that. have put Senator McGill, as
well as Secretary Henry A. Wallace
of the Department of Agriculture on
the spot. But in addition, the wheat
allotments given the Kansas farmers
under the administration Of the Fed
eral law have aroused bitter resent
ment. Kansas has been for years
great wheat-growing State. In some
parts of the State, the farmers recently
have shifted from other crops to
wheat-as the cash crop.
Cut to 100000 Acres.
When the orders came out from
Washington that the wheat allotment
for all of Kansas was to be approx
mately 100000 acres, the farmers
who had been planting 1900, 900
acres, were really sore. Some of them
recently had put money or credit into
the purchase of new farm machinery,
designed particularly for wheat pro-
duction and harvesting. Some of them
