raise myself to fire, he got up as if to come at 
me again. 
Hurriedly I fired both barrels—like my boy, 
not waiting to get the rifle to my shoulder. The 
first shot missed, but the second put him down 
finally. And then for the moment I completely 
lost my head. I was in such a state that noth¬ 
ing on earth would convince me just then that 
the beast was dead, so I called to the boy who 
was by me, and told him, if he had any car¬ 
tridges left, to go on firing at the body. And 
this feeling held me until I was carried from the 
ground where all this happened. 
The boy brought me my cartridge bag, in 
which I always carry a couple of bandages, some 
lint, and permanganate of potash—and my water 
bottle, which, as luck would have it, was nearly 
empty. I did what I could for myself, making 
a tourniquet out of my handkerchief to stop the 
bleeding, and dressing up the leg as well as I 
was able, and then this same boy (who was a 
cool hand, and who seemed totally unmoved by 
all that had passed) actually brought to me, 
while I was lying down, worn out and spent, 
upon the ground, my small camera, so that I 
might take a photo of the dead beast lying be¬ 
fore me. It was just as if we had shot an ordi¬ 
nary antelope, and not been engaged in a life 
and death struggle. 
Meanwhile, the second gunbearer had run to 
camp to obtain assistance, and eventually I was 
carried back there on a litter, to be doctored up 
by Mr. Selous and Mr. McMillan, as well as 
they could do it. 
It is unnecessary that I should describe my 
sufferings during the night, but there is no doubt 
that the care that was given to me by those two 
men during the evening and night saved me. 
Next morning, June 19, I left camp and started 
my journey to Lundiana, being carried on a 
stretcher. We made this place, 123 miles, in 
four days and three hours, pretty good travel¬ 
ing in a heat like we had. 
At Lundiani I was in touch with the Uganda 
railway, and a troublesome train journey of 
nineteen hours brought me at last to Nairobi. 
Here I received, for the first time, the attention 
of a doctor. I was taken up to the Government 
Hospital, where I experienced the utmost kind¬ 
ness and attention from both Dr. Henderson— 
who has great experience in such cases—and the 
nursing staff. It was only their unremitting care 
which enabled me to bring my leg away with 
me. and I shall always have the rnost grateful 
and enduring recollections of that little hospital 
away in the heart of Africa. 
A FAVORABLE OPINION. 
Massachussets has just passed through its 
third winter of a game law of great interest to 
ornithologists, with surprisingly successful re¬ 
sults. Indeed, this law is of almost equal in¬ 
terest to sportsmen and to bird lovers in gen¬ 
eral, and of much importance to the public at 
large. There have been many of us who have 
sorrowfully come to the belief that our wild¬ 
fowl were doomed to extinction. Now we have 
hopes to the contrary. In spite of a tremend¬ 
ous winter which has taken its tithe of the liv¬ 
ing birds in a death roll due to severe^ cold and 
the starvation consequent on thick ice, there 
are distinctly more wild geese and wild ducks 
congregating on our Southern coast and al¬ 
ready winging their way northward than for 
years. This is also in spite of a poor breeding 
season last summer, when conditions on the 
great Northern breeding grounds were unfav¬ 
orable.—Boston Transcript. 
CONSERVATION. 
“Conservation of natural resources.” 
That’s a familiar phrase, isn’t it? We hear it 
often, don’t we? Gosh, everybody’s using it— 
and it’s a good thing. 
Conservation is only another way of saying 
common sense. Conservation means efficiency. 
Efficiency means having enough brains in your 
cranium to know that you can’t waste your cake 
and still have it. Either you have it or you 
don’t have it. There’s no middle ground. To 
have is to conserve.—Milwaukee Leader.
