Men who hive been mighty Hon hunters

Haunts of Bis Game.
"In general, then, the Uon frequents
that part of the country where feed the
great game herds. From them he takes
his toll by night, retiring during the day
into shallow ravines, the brush patches

rule aa can be formulated In regard to
Uona. Yet once, and perhaps twice, I
saw lionesses stalking through tall grass
as early as 3 o'clock In the afternoon.
This eagerness may or may not have had
to do with the possession of hungry cubs.
"The lion's customary harmlessness in
the day time la best evidenced, however,
by the comparative indifference of the
game to his presence then. From a hill
we watched three of these beasts wander
ing leisurely across the plains below. A
herd of kongonls feeding directly in their
path merely moved aside right and left
quite deliberately, to leave a passage
fifty yards or so wide; but otherwise
paid no attention.
"I have several tlmea seen this Inci

"However, the most of hts hunting is
done by dark. Between the houra ot
sundown and 8 o'clock he and his friends
may be heard uttering the deep cough

may be mere evidence of Intention; or
they may be a sort of signal by means
of which the various hunters keep in
touch. After a little they cease. Then
one Is quite likely to hear the petulant.
alarmed barking of zebras or to feel the
vibrations of many hoofs. There Is a
sense of hurried, flurried uneasiness
abroad on the veldt.
'The lion generally springs on his prey
from behind or a little oft the quarter,
By the Impetus of his own weight he
hurls his victim forward, doubling its
head under, and very neatly breaking Its
neck. I have never aeen this done, but
the process has been, well observed and
attested; and certainly of the many hun
dreds of lion kills I have taken the pains
to lnnpect the majority had had their
necks broken.
"Sometimes, but apparently more rarely,
the Hon kills Its prey by a bite in the
back of the neck. I have seen sebra
killed in this fashion, but never any of
the buck. It may be possible that the
lack of horns makes it more difficult to
break a aebra'a back because of the cor
responding lack of leverage when Its head
hits the ground sidewlse.
"Once the kill Is made the lion dlsem

drass the entrails a few feet out of the

evidence, it Is occasionally possible to
Identify a kill as being that of a lion by
potlclng whether any considerable portion
of the hide has been devoured. After
eating he drinks.
"Then he Is likely to do one of two
things: either he returns to , cover near
the carcass and lies down; or he wanders
slowly and with satisfaction toward his
happy home. In the latter case the
hyenas, jackals and carrion birds seize
their' chance. v The astute hunter can
often diagnose the case by the general
actions and demeanor of these camp fol

'A half dosen hyenas seated on their
haunches at scattered intervals and trea-

has decided to save the rest of the sebra

the other hand, a flapping, snarling Kil

about, one spot in . the grass means that
the principal actor has gone home.
It Is ordinarily useless to expect to tee
the Hon actually on his prey. The feed
ing la done before dawn, after which the
lion enjoys stretching out in the open
until the sun Is well up, and then retir
ing to the nearest available cover. In an
undisturbed country, or one not much
hunted, the early morning hours, up to
say 9 o'clock, are quite likely to show you
Hons sauntering leisurely across the open
plain toward their lairs. They go a Ht

and gradually work their way home. At
those tlmea you com upon them unex

In the ' last report one finds that four
dosen bottles of a welt known brand of
cologne were purchased and also a gallon
of another brand . scarcely less known.
While senators are considering matters
of state they are still somewhat thought
ful of their own personal charms. In
their effort to restore falling senatorial
hair the senator last year consumed
several dosen bottles , of a celebrated
make of hair tonlo costing :6.50 a dozen,
as well as several bottles of a grade
costing slightly less. - ?
Perfumery Is apparently popular In the
senate. A dram of oil of rose, several

numerous Jars of massage cream were
purchased to enhance the senatorial pul
chritude. One section of the report sug

these are some of the purchases made
to guard th4 senatorial health. Quinine
pill seem to be a favorite remedy for
ordinary ailments and are bought by the
thousand. June 8, , MU, 2,500 five-grain

ot th senators.
; Two kips of chamois skin, costing 133;
six ounces of bergamot' and two ounces
of quince eeed are enumerated. The
member of the upper house of congress

example, In the last report of the secre
tary of the senate we find aeveral In
voices of snuff intended for the sen
atorial nostrils. .
One of the strangest things to be seen
about ' the senate chamber is the old
fashioned snuff boxes. One of these Is
at the right of the vice president's chair
and the other at the left. ; They are con
venient to the door opening Into the Ben
ate chamber from the corridor leading to
the marble room. These boxes have ben
located here since the senate moved into
the present hall In 1859. being brought
over from the old senate chamber. Nor
are they mere ornaments, suggestive of
the d&irs of short breeches, silk stockings,
sUver.shoebuckles, silk shirts and ruffles,
powdered wigs and perukes. They are
kept filled, and-a few of the older sen
ators can still be seen to visit them and
daintily extract plnces of the rarest snuff.
And. too. 'in the supreme court, whicn
sits in-the oid senate chamber, whose

almost forgotten. In front of the rostrum
on which the Justice are seated, is tne
snace for the members of the supreme
court bar. Here are long tables on which
they, take their notes and pile their for
bidding sheepskin volumes. ' On each
table are steel pens, blotters and bottle
of ink of the present day.; Besides tnese
conveniences ofy the present generation
are always found a collection of newly
cut quill pens, fashioned from goose quills

A Study In Still Life.
A pair of large, travel-worn broguns.
with feet -inside, reposed on a chair
which stood in the open entrance to one
of the senate galleries during the drowsy
afternoon hours of Senator Smoot's three
day speech on the metal tariff a fort
night ago. It was a perfect study In
still life and visible from certain pre
cincts of the senate floor. One of the
punctilious senators on the republican
side viewed the spectacle for a time and
then summoned one of the young men of
the corps of floor official.
"Those, feet probably belong to one of
the doorkeepers," hje said. "Better tell
him to remove them from the chair, but
do it as politely as you can, as he may
be one of our old soldier employes. There
is no need to hurt the feeling of the old
chap." '
Here is the note Which a page handed
to the offending doorkeeper a few mo
