A4.1QM HUNT. .
<inphlt Description of an Exciting
venture In Somaliland’
Captain 8 way no, R.E.,in a letter to
> Ur. P. Q Selater, secretary to tbe
Zoological society, and published in
the Field, gives the following graphic
description of a lion hunt in Somali
land:
“Last Juba when on a shooting
excursion in North Somaliland, my
brother. Lieutenant E. Swayne. and I
and two gun-bearers found two lions
. and a lioness in the open, ton miles
froth any bush, in the short green
grass. The two lions walked away
slowly, looking over their shoulders
at us; but the lioness crouched and
would not let us pass her. My broth
er shot ht her. but fired too high, and
wounded her in the wither* making
her spin round like a top in a cloud
of dust So that I could see nothing
to fire at My brother and I were
sixty yards apart and the lioness six
ty yards from both of u* tbe three
forming a triangle. Suddenly out of
the dust came an apparition of a
charging Hones* ventre a terra com
ing straight*! ma I fired both bar
rel* reserving the second till she was
only five yard* away, and 1 still had
the rifle at ,my shoulder when she
•truck m* sending me‘over and over,
and with suoh force that I altogether
lost consolouines*
Both of my bullets (.677) had
passed through her foot The two
gun-bearers had bolted,' and we were
so mixed up that my • brother could
not fire from whose he wag, so he ran
. up dose to see a
the chest ae she
her lnstantlw.
"You wiH se* tharefet* that it
was a very narrow eseapa as I was
aaeeasQtou* and the lioness had al
ready given. me six fang wounds in
my right shoulder. It was twelve
days before I could get medical as
sistance; but luckily nothing had
edme of it My brother, seeing I was
all right mounted a , pony whloh he
.borrowed from a nadtva and followed
up and shot one of the large lion*
The third escaped as the Somalis
were shocked at the mauling I had
received, and would not follow. The
larger Hon charged my brother’s pony
for over sixty yard* after having been
shot through the heart We out its
heart out and found the hole made
by the bullet through It”

relates the Chicago Times. One day
she was paler than usual, and her
hands trembled. Her mistress asked
her the reason. Sheisaid:
“1 been tbinkin’ o3f a lady I helped
to nurse once—out in Colorado 'twos.
She was took bad sudden t an' they

kind of roofed in. an* the rainy season

A USEFUL INVENTION.
Designed to Prevent Water Pipes Prom
lluruilng In Winter.
* A gentleman living in Peckham,
England, has Invented and patented
an ingenious method of preventing
water pipes from bursting during
frosty weather, says Invention. It
consists in a length of elastic substance
covered by thin (sheet or tinned) lead,
the combination forming a thin rod
more pliable than an ordinary cane.
The rod, when Inserted inside the
piping, becomes compressed by the
expansion caused by: the freezing of
the water, thus relieving the piping
tof’the strain which would otherwise
burst it The elastio substance is
prepared cork the great durability
and elasticity of which are too well
known to need any comment
The inventor has performed a series
of experiments by artificial freezing
which, he statea proves beyond doubt
that this method will be an effectual
preventive during any frost even
when the lightest piping is used. The
rod can be easily inserted inside piping
and will pass easy bends.
