HarptiAm of Llm-olii President At the annual convention of the National Wholesale Saddlery Associ ation, held at Chicago last week, J. C, Harpham of Lincoln, Nebr., mem ber of the well known firm of Harp ham Brothers Company, was elected president for the ensuing year. This is a deserved honor and came to Mr. Harpham as a surprise, as he was not a candidate for the position. One of the Important questions taken up by the convention was the matter of convict labor that comes Into competition with the saddlery business. The association is sup porting the bill which has been In troduced In congress to prohibit the shipping of convict made goods out of any state. If penitentiary made goods are to be sold In competition with those made outside, they should be confined to trust controlled man ufactures and not cut the trade on articles the price of which have been reduced by competition o almost the cost of production. 3 MOUNTAIN LIONS KILLED Chicago Hunter Engage In Death Itattle with Three Ferocious Ilea!

Colter, a visitor from Chicago, ar rived back In town this afternoon with three mountain lion pelts and a number of ugly gashes on his body as a result of an encounter with the big cats near Chihauhau on the oth er side of the Continental divide, west of here. Colter also had a narrow escape from death In a storm. Bruise Are Many The Chicago man has a dozen bruises over his body, his arms are bandaged and swollen and he walks with a limp. "I saw only one of the animals at first," said Colter. "I leveled my gun and turned to one side to get a better footing and there, not ten feet away, crouched the mate of the first. "I turned my attention to the near est lion. He looked like an elephont to me, and you can see by the skin that he was a big fellow.
