Rudyard Kipling tells a good story of himself to the Newcastle I Eng.) Chronicle. On* day, he says. I was sitting In my study In ondon when suddenly a gentleman appeared at the door unannounced, followed by two schoolboys. "Is this Rudyard Kip ling?” Inquired the gentleman. "Yes.” 1 answered. He turned round. "Roys, this is Rudyard Kipling.” "And this is where you write?” he continued. “Yes," 1 replied. “Boys, this Is where be writes.” And before I had time to ask them to take a seat they were gone, boys and all. I suppose they had all literary l^tndon to do in that way. Short—Young Doctor—Did you diag nose his case as appendicitis, or mere ly the cramps? Old Doctor—Cramps.

Des Moines. July 6, 1898. By the war tax law that went into effect July 1, a 25 cent stamp is re quired on each power of attorney giv en by an inventor and he must cancel it by writing the initials of h.s name and the date on the stamp. An Inventor cannot delegute author ity to any person to sign hfs applica tion for a patent. As long as he Is alive he must sign hlR name to the papers, or make his mark, if he can not write his name. After his death his executor or administrator can sign the papers required to constitute an ap plication for a patent for an invention made by an Inventor prior to his death provided the invention has not been in public use for two years. Assignments of patents, or any in terest in a patent need not have a war tax or revenue stamp thereon. Twelve patents were issued to Iowa Inventors last week, to Nebraska 2, Minnesota 7.

"Tho lion Is !n the kraal and has killed another ox!" A rude and some what startling awakening, this! And on a Sunday morning, too. as early as 1 o'cloc k a. m.! 1 sat up in my stretch er, and gazed towards the open door, , where my good missions! y host stood, candle in hand, and bearer of Informa tion such as always g'ces real pleasure lo the ''big-game'' sportsman, no mat ' ter however much he may regret the j loss of ox, horse, or donkey, which so often serves as the Introductory price to his majesty, "fells Ico.” The scene of action was a mission station on the borders cf the Mashlko Jumbwe country, and some sixteen miles to the west of the Kafukwc riv er iu south latitude 13 degrees 33 min utes. I was returning from a Journey I of exploration among the Mashlko I lumbwe come four days earlier, and i had been tempted to sojourn a few days with my friends, Messrs. Buckenham ar.d Baldwin, In order to do battle with a man-eating lion which three weeks before had taken up hit? quarters in tho neighborhood, and had been living right merrily on the natives ever since. Mr. Baldwin had given me a list of this lion’s bag, from which it was evi dent that the animal did not shun the habitations of man. and was particular ly predisposed In favor of the gentler sex—a trait In hia character which went far to bring about his ruin. Ou Jan. 28, 189C. a woman was seized and carried off from Just outside the village stockade, and was no more seen or heard of. On the 29th the animal visited the mission cattle kraal. His appearance caused a general stampede among the oxen and donkeys Inside, which broke through the palisade and tore off In the darkness In all direc tions. On this, of course, all that was left for King Leo to do was to take Ills nlnlr »n,l ...1st. 1. 1 _ II «l,r. pntanglement of thorns at the back of the station, which (to man) Impenetra ble fastness he had chosen as his head quarters. He selected an ox, as It hap pened. and decamped with the beef. The 30th was a red-letter day In his career. In the daytime he annexed a sheep, a lamb, and a goat, and there fore It Is to be assumed he was not suffering from hunger when light gave place to darkness. He must thus have been either a very keen sportsman or an enthusiast In his devotion to the fair sex, or he would not have pawed aside the wicker door of a native hut, walked inside, and abducted a sleeping female from the bosom of her family. And yet he did. On the morrow he does not seem to have gone abroad, but on the following night, Feb. 1, he varied his menu with a donkey from the mission kraal which had belonged to me some few weeks previously. Then four days’ rest, till on the 5th he purloined a sec ond donkey, and was no more heard of till Sunday, the 9th. when he died by violence. And this Is bow it came about: To jump Into a pair of trous ers and place a couple of cartridges In to my 16-bore was only a matter of a moment, as soon as the alarm was giv LOOKING AT MR. BALDWIN, en. My plan was to approach the kraal and try to get a shot at the lion with the aid of bluellghts, which I carried with me in anticipation of such emer gencies as the present. Mr. Baldwin at once volunteered to accompany me, and armed himself with a Martini rifle. Then repairing to the "boys’ ” Are, I explained my plans and called for a vol unteer to bold the light which would enable me to get a suitable view of ray quarry. The Afrleau native does not show a great amount of enthusiasm for lion-hunting even by daylight, so I con fess to being very ugreeahly surprised when three boys offered to join us in the attack—my Bamangwuto boy. I>e eharn. a Mashlkolumbne youth of about 18, and a Munko.vs who had re cently entered my service. The re mainder preferred the warm glow of their camp Are. As the Mashikolumh we seemed to me to exhibit most calm ness of demeanor. I Intrusted him with the blue light, with Instrut tlon* in keep dose behind my right shoulder, and to hold the light aloft after I had ignited the fuse; the other two prolonged the line to the right, with Mr. liable lu on their flank. And thus we adtanred slowly Into Ibe darkness until within suiue thirty pares of the tattle kraal, whan we were pulled up sharp by the sound ef an angry growl ftuin our uu •e«U ettetuy I Immediately applied the striker to.the fuse once twice tkrke. but still only a faint glimmer of Hgki mm# ru# fa*# ««« * b#4 an# I at»4 r#fi*##4 la Unit#.

He must have been within six feet when h's growl ing^ ceased and all became quiet again. A second light responded to the strik er, and lit up the kraal and Its sur roundings. The enemy had decamped and taken covert in the scrub beyond. We then retraced our steps, and smoked a pipe In order to give his majesty time to think over matters and return to his meat. in about half an hour's time we re turned to the attack. As we neared the l:raal another low growl greeted us I struck a light, and as I did so the Ma shikolumbwe boy told mo he saw the lion standing near ant-heap close( by the kraal. 1 looked, and saw two dark objects—one on either side of the, ant-heap. To th* left, what I took for ft bush—as It seemed much too large for a lion—was all I could see; to the right, what might easily be a crouch ing lion attracted my notice. I fired at the latter—the light went out, and all was quiet. Another light revealed the smaller object still there, and it is so still for all I know—but the larger ono had disappeared. I had fired at the wrong one! The next attempt only gave us a glimpse us his body glided to covert from behind the kraal. He evidently didn't mean to give us another chance that night, so we decided to retire to rest—but not to sleep—and make a fur ther attempt at grey dawn, In the hope of getting a shot before he had reached the impenetrable bush behind the sta tion, where It would bo Impossible to get at him. Vet once more Mr. Baldwin called mo from the world of sleep as he opened the door of the hut. This time, how ever, he said nothing, but looked a great deal. I uttered one short but expressive syllable as I realized that the sun was already high In the heav ens, and the chance of coming up with the lion very remote Indeed. The ani mal, Mr. Baldwin told me, had actually nntpn Ida wov * t« u as a man's arm hi order to gain en trance to the kraal. He had, of course, dragged away the carcass, and must ere this have reached tils lair. We found, as the boys had reported to Mr. Baldwin, that n hole had been eaten through the palisade, and at the far side a larger opening through which the surviving terrified animals had made their eseape. A groove In the sandy soil showed the line along which the carcass had been dragged. Accom panied by three boys, we followed the spoor until, after traversing some five hundred yards only, wc came upon the remains of the ox lying at the entrance of a tunnel through dense thorn bush. No lion was to be seen, though there was but little doubt that the marauder was within a few yards of his prey. A growl soon disclosed big whereabouts, and as It came from behind a wall of bush only a few paces In front, I fired at where I calculated the animal stood, fearing that he would not venture Into the open with so much covert at his disposal. There being no response or sound of movement, I left Mr. Baldwin and the boys and commenced to skirt the wall of thorn with the object of attacking him in his retreat. I had reached the ox, from which I was sep arated by a few thorns, when an ab normally large lion cantered down the "tunnel,’’ and stood for a moment look ing at Mr. Baldwin. The bush would not allow me to get my rifle round be fore the lion, catching sight of me— not two yards from him for the first time, turned round and trotted back to covert. I then continued the flanking movement, until a brownish back ground, beyond a small opening In the thorns, arrested my advance, and I could determine whether I saw a small piece of lion or of an ant-heap or bark less tree. A movement of a dark spot, after I had been watching for some seconds, told me that what I had In front of me must be the lion, and that the spot must be his nose or his ear, either of which, according as he was facing me or standing side-ways, made an nvnollpnfr hull's; pvp fnr st hrain thnf I raised my rifle and took a careful aim—a report—a sudden movement of the fawn mass—and all was still again. On examining the carcass it was found that the bullet had passed up the tight nostril and through the brain crashing through the atlas vertebra and resting under the skin. Measurement showed him to l>e much above the average, hi* length from muule to tip of tall being 9 feet 10 inches, and hlH standing height, taken between assegais, from the pads of his heels to the shoulder points. Just 43 Inches. In shoulder measurement only one larger seems to have been bagged oue shot by Mr. Selous, which scaled 44 Inches. liis mane, unfortunately, left much to be desired. With the ultl of a long pole and severul natives he was carried Into the atatlou. There was great rejoicing among the natives that Sunday morn ing who congregated lu large numbers and finished up by eating the carcass of their fallen foe. not withstanding the ; fact that two of tbelr women folk were entombed therein ASII Gibbous.
