making a,srortieg tour in East Afri-
ea," says Sir Edward Buck hi the
i nglisbnran.
'Trio country leas not been •overshot,
yet, but every- year will tenni to make
the 'game more shy. And I will add
that I should be tempted to push
on through Uganda to the Albert
Lake . and thence down the Nile to
r ,e'yp.t, thee avoixlin,g, the long, sea
iaurnay round by the 7.3•ed Sea: The
road from Entebbe, at witicb place
the traveller is landed by the Vic-
toria Lake ,steamer',_ to the Albert
Lake is a very good one, and the
joie ney takes about eight days. At
the lake a boat is prccuratile which
t'ar'os passengers throeili tie lake
flown the upper reaches of the Nile.
Then a week's journey by land is
3n,; de imperative by rapids which
render the river unnavigable. After
this xro,arnh the traveller can proceed
in a steamer 'direct to Cairo.
"Ona of the temptations, at least
i, 'mild be so to me, on this route,
is the - lashing on Lake Albert and in
Some of the reaches of the Nile. A
fish whieli a1?pears to behave very
like the miahseer is very plentiful, and
one was taken last year
WEIG•IIING 99 POUNDS.
But the fisli whieli gives the best
sport is, so I was told by an official
who diad caught mahseer in. the Item-
nl.eyas, the 'tiger fish,' which,
through srnaller in size, reaming only
to ten: pounds, is much more active
tlia‘ln the mabseer and requires more
skill and care to land.
"The sportsman will find another
advantage oe. this routo. He may
take out a seemed license for shoot-
ing in the Uganda Protectorate under
trio same restrictions as in the )Nast
Africa Protectorate, thus doubling the
number of animals which he :nay kill,
and as he has a better chance than
elsewhere cf meeting with male ele-
phants with exceptionally goodteaks
he may, 3f he is fortunate, obtain
Ivory, of which the value will be
materially more than the license fee
of £50. And he will bave obtained
perhaps some fairly good tusks in
the East Africa Protectorate of
which the price will if lie chooses to
sell the ivory, make up the whole 61
the •£1011, leaving the only charges to
be met the eost of sliikaries, coolies
and food. As far as 1 'meld aster-
tain . the charges for these are . not
excessive, provided that the tent car-
ried' is light.
"As I have referred to the ele-
phant, it will not be out of place to a young man he was hunting once
sotnet ing about lions, The main
thing tobe said about them is, the
uncertainty of finding therm, T will
give ea instance. On the railway
journey, between Port Florence and
Nairobi an Austrian Count, %vile
with a married companion and his
wife had been shooting in the neigh-
borhood, joined the train, ]fringing'
his trophies with him.He ha4 kill-
ed, I was told: nine lions within a
month, whereas last year in six
weeks hq had not been able to lend
a single one. The fair Austrian, I
nlny, mention, was got up like the
short skirted 'Tyrolese peasant girl
of the opera, and presented a very
picturesque and sporting aippearance.
she, too, had killed her lions, that
is, some of the nine.
"More, then, 1 cannot say about
the Ding of the 'Forest except that
the authorities want their lions kill-
ed, and that the sportsman mast,
when he arrives in the country, make
inquiries about the localities where
lions have most recently been seen.
or are most likely to be found. Thus
on the day that we returned to the
coast we were told at a serail sta-
tion named Simba, which being in
terproted means lion, that five lions
had just been seed in the vicinity,
and that if there was .any sportsman
in the train who was anxious ,to kill
a lion he hadbetter stop and go af-
ter them at once. It is, by the way
in the same neighborhood, not much

ca, that 'rhinos' can often be seen

the harbor, in view of its being
within ciiey compass of a week end
trip. And the game, especially, of
course, antelopes anti. gazelles, is
correspondingly shy. On the other
hand, . in many places the animals are.
too easily approached, and except
for the lest which accompanies a de-
sire to obtain record horns, most of
the antelope shooting is somewhat
tame sport, as may be inferred from
the name 'head hun:tinge which is
given to it locally."•

FRIENDS IN SPITE OF WAR.
Gen: Terauchi, Jap War Minister,
and Gen. Xouropatkin
An interesting story of the great
struggle at arras between Japan and
Russia lies in a long established per-
sonal frienndsli3Li between Gen. Terau
chi,' ministex• of war of Japan, and
Gen. X.ouropatkin, and an exchange
of swords as presents 'between the
two on tlio eye of the war.
ICouropatkin and Terauchi met in
Paris twenty years ago. Terauchi,
then a major, was military attache
to the Japanese legation in the
French capital and I'ouropFatkin, _ a
major general at that time, went to
France to observe the military
manoeuvres. The two soldiers met)
first officially, and there soon sprang
tip between them a feeling of waren
friendship and regard. They Parton
in Paris and did not meet until 1i oU
ropatkin came to Japan last year.
The lapse of years had brought in-
creased rank and cabinet portfolios
for both, andtheir reunion was an
interesting one.
Events were then moving rapidly
toward war, but the rupture had not
come, and tide two ministers met as
that Green set to work to write his friends and freely enjoyed the roma
famous "Short history of the Eng- ion. When Kouropatl,in was about
to leave Japan , for home. Terauclii
presented him with. a ,Tapanese sword

ship and with an interesting his-

When -lie reached St. Petersburg

manufacture of a Russian sword for
Itis friend Terauchi. It was finished
and di.spattheid in. December and
reached the Japanese capital a weak
before Togo's guns opened fire on
Port Arthur.
A peculiar thing about the Russian
sword is that it reached Tokio with
the blade, keenly sharpened, a custom

in time of war.

longed his life for five years. Even
he was bound to confess, "I wonder
how in those years of physical pain
and despondency I could ever' have
written the book at a11."
0enekai Grant's "Autobiography,"
which' brought his widow the enorm-
ous sum of $500,000, was written
under even more trying conditions
than Green's "History." In 1884,
the year before his death, tho ex-
President
YPresident found himself bankrupt
through the failure of a bank in which
he was a partner, •and face to face
with . the prospect of dying, penniless
and leaving his wife destitute. It
was at this terrible crisis that he
began to write the story of his .stir-
ring career for a firm of publishers.
But the cup of his misfortune Inas
not yet full:. A cancer formed at the
root of his tongue, and the gallant
soldier, already doomed to 'death, was

There is a great misapprehension
as to the number of millionaires in
New York and in the world. Chaun-
cey
hauncey M. Depew said recently that
there were 100,000 millionaires in
the United States. According.to. a
great commercial agency, which is
probably nearer right, there are on-
ly 77,000. The Financial Red Book,
a most carefully, compiled publica-
tion gives the names of practically
all the persons in the United States
who are supposed to be worth more
than $800,000. And there are only
15,000 names on the list. No claim
is made that the name of -every, per-
son worth that amount or more is
given, but the proportion of those
left out is extremely small,' fog a
most exhaustive investigation has
been made. In tho last few years
there has been a marked tendency
among men of wealth to conceal the
amount of their worldly posessions,
The' first incentive in this respect is
the vulgar prominence given to the
man who has lots of money. There
are other reasons men have for sup-
pressing knowledge of the amount
of their wealth. Some wish to
avoid heavy taxation and give false
returns. Another mane - may have

one of the witnesses, in the coarse of
giving his evidence, described the test -

• PUT 3.YOU1t BOY IN KILTS.
Dee J. Cantlie, in his lecture at the
London Polytebnie, strongly recom-
mended the kilt as calculated to pro-
mote the health and strength of lads.
Mothers (he said) often desired their
boys to look like men, and so put
them • i.nnto tight -fitting costuanes
whic]i craned their movements and
almost retarded their development.
The lilted skirt, on the contrary,
gave a warmth to the notes which
was most conducive to strength in
.future years. Lord,. Roberts has paid.
a striking tribute to the physical en-
durance of his kilted soldiers, and
there could be no doubt that the
kilt, an excellent thing for men, was,
from the health point of view, a
most admirable dress for boys,
