Wardens Shot by Poachers. 
Another case of Italians resisting arrest by 
game wardens is reported from the mountains 
near Altoona, Pa. Game Warden Frank White- 
man, of that city, found three Italians violating 
the game laws on Nov. 1 , and had arrested one 
of them when he was fired on by the other two 
and badly hurt, although he wounded one of 
them with his revolver. Frightened at what they 
had done, the Italians threw away their guns 
and fled, whereupon Mr. Whiteman, using two 
of the guns as crutches, managed to hobble to 
the nearest house, where he was assisted to his 
home.

Their Principles, Types and Management. By Francis 
K. Grain. 132 pages. Price, $1.25. 
Here is a pocket manual indispensable to every man 
who uses a motor-boat. It deals in simple untechnical 
fashion with the running of the marine gas engine, and 
with the difficulties that the marine gas engineer is likely 
to meet with. These engines are described, some pages 
are devoted to launches in general, with practical advice 
to the man who contemplates purchasing a power boat. 
The main feature of the book, however, is a clear descrip¬ 
tion of the difficulties met with in running a gas engine, 
their causes and how to remedy them, in this discussion 
all technicalities are avoided, and the author has boiled 
down a vast amount of practical knowledge into small 
space and into every-day language. The amateur power 
boat man needs this book, for it will save him much time 
and trouble, and probably not a little money.
