THE KING OF ANIMALS..
Trappers and Skin Experts Give This
Title to the Black Fox,
In the estimation of trappers and
rita
as
voyageurs
as in the eye* ern of then very rids
nobility of Russia and Siberia, there
is only one ling of beasts, and the
naam; of this beast is the big and
radiantly shining black fox, which
roams ever the cold and barren hillq
that stretch from east of the Penob-
scot river in Maine, through New
Brunswick and Nova Scotia, and, skip.,
ping' the mouth of the St. Lawrence
river. extend in diminishing hum-
mocks through western Labrador and
end in the hillocks and Laurentian
formations which surround Hudson.
Bay.
Those who seek . the choicest and
most expensive furs known to. man
and who will pay any price for what
they want must go to the bleak coast
line of eastern North America for
what they want and may have to wait
for years to secure pelts that will
inatelh perfectly with other skins
whieh are to get toward making up a
set, for the black fox of North America
-le reynaril noir of the French hunt-
ers -wears the most vntuable overcoat
of any animal on earth,
As a rule, about ,Ave perfect pelta
from black foxes pre captured every
veer, and of these three are bought
by the sweat Hudson Bay Fur Co. or
its tributary associations, Though
5'laine alone furnishes more than 70.-
000 foxskins every year and though
nearly 5.000 active men spend most
of the winter in trapping and poison-
ing Totes and other animals for their
furs, only twice, in the run of twelve
months are the combined efforts of
these individual hunters able fo .se-
cure a black fox.
-In nowaw except in color does the
black tox differ from its congener, the
red fox, whose pelt sells for $3.50, or
from the gray fax, whose overcoat is
valued at from $150 to $400, but When-
ever a hunter can secure.a black fox
and remove its akin 'without marring
the fur he is as sure of receiving from
$800 to $1,500 for his trophy as ,if he
had the money in his hand. Not only
iso every y b la
ek fox pelt bought as soon
as taken, but a dozen Russian noble-
men have paid agents traveling in
North America all through the winter,
seeking out remote hillside farms and
abandoned logging camps, where it is
possible that a shy and elusive black
fox may have been seen. -Chicago
lecord-Herald.
STILL VASTER SURPLUS.
More Money Came in Than the Fin-
ancial Minister Expected.
A total surplus of eighteen mullions
.and a net reduction of seven and one-
half millions in the public debt of
Canada are foreshadowed in the
monthly financial statement just is-
sued. °
The statement is declared to be the
most encouraging in Canadian history.
The Finance Minister in his last bud-
get estimated the surplus, at only 13
millions. All the figures are not yet
in, but the receipts for the nine
months period of the fiscal year end-
ing March 31st, total $67,138,594. An.
other two millions is expected, which
would put the revenue four millions
above the estimate made by Mr. Tield-
ing In November.
The expenditure far
l p resa on consoli-
dated account is $45,905.802, with ac-
counts
scounts of slightly over four millions
still outstanding. The total net debt
shown on the 31st of April is given
as $257,010,430. Customs revenue for
the fiscal year was $39,770,588, and
excise revenue $11,843,585. On capital
account, for public works; railways
and canals, the sum of $8,610,356 was
spent; for militia, 3597.052; for boun-
ties:,, 31,007,705; for railway subsidies,
$1,324,889.
Fish Seek Canadian Waters.
The agreement to submit to a joint
American -Canadian commission the
question of uniform fishing regula-
tions for the Great Lakes and con-
tiguous waters is of vital importance
to an industry that on this side alone
employs some seven millions of capi-
tal, and mar.kete a product of three
millions. As in other international dis-
putes, one of the initial difficulties
is that a question on witch the Cana-
dian authorities have adopted a uni-
form policy is hero handled by the
eight States bordering on the lakes in
eight different ways. Some of our
States have closed seasons; others,
using the same waters, have none.
Some are active in restocking the fish-
eries;, others do little but catch the
fish their neighbors have planted. One
of the remarkable assertions made in
all seriousness by a correspondent of
The Chicago Tribune is that the -fish
themselves have 'developed an in-
stinct to "seek refuge . in Canadian
waters." That is certainly evidence
of our waatefal policy, from those who
should know most about it. -New
York Post.
A Game Law Anomaly.
A peculiar anomaly has been found.
the new Gama Protection Act pass-
ed last aebsion by the Ontario Legis-
lature. Ii• is in 'connection with the
keeping of game after the beginning
of the` close season which hid been
lawfully killed during the open sea-
son. 'Accordng to -clause 40 of the
act, gine may 1rel sept from •the end
of dee open semen until the first day
of Tannery of the following year. This
meant that e11kind* of ducks and
hares (commonly known as leek rab-
bits) can be kept from 12 c'eloek. bee.
30, when the open season ends, until
10 o'eloek Dee. 41, or exactly' 24 hotly*.
In the case of .geese and meant the
open season ends April 30; so that
they tan be kept for night menthe,
If enforced this clause Int the fact
would ignite it unlawful for a Sports -
Mail to have' in ' his posssission for
his estii nse dunks or hares which he
had abet, while he eould have geetri
ger Sesta. .']`he dant* will probably
be 4wiollded rent aehllon.

Long Sieger In Congress.
Samuel J. Randall of Pennsylvania
was an avowed protectionist Democrat
and a man who, his colleagues bad
learned, usually was able to get his
way. Randall had first entered con.
gress in 1862. He was a quiet, per-
sistent, hardworking person who at-
tracted
ttracted little attention for sereral
years. Then the Republicans, sure of
their majority and wishing to expedite
business, undertook to adopt rules
which would prevent obstruction. The
quiet Mr. •Itandall set himself against
the attempt. He led the small Demo-
cratic majority with a skill so unusual
that morethan once be blocked the
Republicans' way until it was too late
to pass the measure. His endurance
seemed unlimited. Frons one session
lasting forty-six hours and twenty-five
minutes, where Randall had forced the
roll to be called seventy -live times, he
came out as fresh as he went in. At
another time in the fight over the
force bill he wits on the floor for sev-
enty-two
eventy'-two consecutive hours. - Ida M.

Went to Bed For Dinner.
An amusing incident Is told of the
absentmindedness of the late Justice
William G. Keogh of Ireland. it was
at a bar dinner at bis own house, and
he bad excused himself from the
guests, who had already assembled, to
go up stairs to dress. Time went by,
but he did not reappear. The company
sat patiently for some time till at
length, when their appetites were get-
ting the better of their manners and
they were about to send a messenger
In quest of their absent host, he ap-
peared end explained with many apolo-
gies that lmagining that he was retir-
ing for the night he had undressed and
got into bed. After an hour's sleep he
awoke, and it suddenly dawned on him
that his guests were waiting to dine
with him below.

THE DILA MONSTER,
Strang* Ways of This Dreaded mit
Hard !Siting' Reptile.
01 some of the etrauge wale of the
Oa .mounter, that little known crea-
tureof the southwestern deserts, a coy
respondent. writes; "1 have info some
experiences with 1Gila inonsIbrs and
can state that, uo matter what,nclen-
tiste may China, the Gild monster fa a
good thing to shun. Indians and Mexi-
cans dare a horror of it and fear
It snore than a rattlesnake. I be-
lieve that the bide of the Gila monster
is dangerous because of the creature's
habit of eating IS eras, bugs and ro-
dents and tisen Eying on sand so hot
that it blisters the hands and feet of
leen. The heat onuses the food to pu-
trefy in the stomach, evidenced by the
fact that the teeth are often covered
with a fermented, putrefied froth trent
the food. A bite has the sante effect as
the cut of a dissecting knife used on a
cadaver -hi other words, the inocula-
tion of a deadly poison,
"When frightened or angry he can
move quite rapidly. That short, thick,
stubby tall le used in jumping, just as
a kangaroo uses his tail, The Gila mon-
ster bites like a bulldog and bas the
tenacity of a snapping turtle, I once
sate some men teasing a Gila monster
brought to Tucson. A string was tied
around his neck. The Gila monster was
crawling around on the ground, trying
to get away, but was pulled back by
the string. This was carried on till the
creature became furious. The crowd
strewed the Glia monster knew nothing
of hili power to spring. Suddenly he
sprung up and bit a man among the
crowd en the hand, leaping tulIy two
feet ,from the ground.
"Another instance, this of a man
whose ,chief object seems to have been
a,foglhardy display of fearfessneas- ae
was holding one of the monsters in his
hand by the back of its neck, so it
could not bite him. He dropped his
band to the side of his leg. The Gila
monster shut his teeth down on his
heavy duck overalls, taking a double
piece out where the cloth fielded as
quickly as a pair of scissors could. have
cut the fabric and as cleanly."
Hopi Indian Traditions.
The Hopi Indians of Arizona have no
written literature, but an Almost
boundless store of oral traditions,
which are handed dbwn unimpaired to
each gehieration in turn and whieh
form the guiding principle of their re-
ligious belief and of their whole life,
says the Craftsman, Every clan, and
there are a number of family clans
making up the various Hopi towns,
hiss its own kiwi, or underground cere-
monial chamber, -entered by a ladder
through a square opening in the roof,
which is but a foot or two above the
general level of the ground. Here the
education of the boys is carried on, be-
ginning at the age of seven or eight
years. They areinstructed day by
day in the literature, history and
myths of the tribes, the priests being
the teachers. Without writing and
without books the Hopi have an ex-,
literature,
t nslve
e and that the utmost
accuracy is observed in its oral trans-.
mission from generation to generation
Is revealed by certain comparisons
with the records made by the Spanish
explorers in the sixteenth century.
