The Episodes in the Transvaal-- The Beast Sought to Rise--The Story Well Written. Tt might have been a bird hopping from twig to twig, possibly a squirrel; but certainly something moved in the bush. Tense stillness again for more than a minute, and then undoubtedly, just where the thorn-trees and under- growth thin out into a vista of bare twigs and long dry speargrass, ap- pears a tawny patch which was not there before. A warning glance back at the boy, who squats two or three yards behind with the second rifle, and we slip down the safety catch of our weapon just as, in apsolute sil- ence, a full-grown lioness walks quiet- ly out into the open, some 70 paces away. She must pen been standing listening for some time before ventur- ing out; but we are across the wind from her, and were careful to keep ab- solutely still behind our cover, sa that no doubt she concluded that thé coast was clear. Twenty yards will take her into another clump of bush, and then good-bye; so there is no time to be lost. Perhaps this causes some undge haste in taking aim; but anyhow, as the report rings out, the lioness pitches forward on her head, half re- covers herself, and crashes into some thorn-trees, where she remains still For a few seconds we stay where we are, covering her; but as no further movement takes place, walk slowly up, to find thehnimal wedged into the fork of twin saplings, her head sunk between Rer ex®nded fore-paws--the former, as well as the back of the neck, covered with blood. Allowing, says a Writer in Bldckwood's, a little too mueh, in the hurry of the moment, the bullet must, as she walked along with lowered head, have got her through the neck instead of through the shoulder, but it is all the same or so we complacently think. The look-out boy now arrives on the scene to say that another lion came out on his side of the bush, But, see. ing him, growled and went back again. "Was it a male or a female?" He doesn't know--was too excited to notice; he thinks a male, because it was very big. We now bend over to see where the bullet actually struck, and have scarcely become conséious of .the fact that the blood is still ooz- ing from the wound, when the "dead" lioness quivers and gives a wriggle preparatory to trying to get up! It is perhaps lucky she is well jammed be- tween the saplings. The rifle is, of course, still in our hands, and it is the work of a fraction of a second to place a bullet at close quarters through her head, upon which she fin- ally collapses. A hurried investiga- tion' now reveals the fact that the first bullet passed through the fleshy part of the neck too high up, and only grazed the skull without fracturing it --a cqse of mere temporary stunning. Anyway there is no doubt about her being dead now, so it is time to try and settle accounts with her ecom- panion, who must still be within the thicket. A program is rapidly agreed upon, and one of the boys races off and soon returns leading the dogs, which, accompanied by the two track- ers, are to enter the bush from the windward side and beat it down, the while we ourselves take up a position somewhere down wind. The probabil- jtiea are that the lion will not face the noisé and scent of the beaters, "ut will break back somewhere to lee- ward and afford the ehance of a shot. Accordingly we retire to where the pony stands, order it back another 300 yards for safety's sake, and pro- ceed to take up a tactical position, partially sheltered from view by the stem of a marula tree growing some 40 yards from the southwestern angle of the bush, and comynanding the long side up to the point where the lioness was secured, and the short southern end up 40 the base of the hill, a dis- tanée of something over 100 yards. A good view is obtained of two full sides, the beaters and dogs fill up a third, leaving the only open side that next the hill. and even if the animal shonld attempt to escape by sealing the lat. ter, there will most likely be the chance of a shot at under 300 yards. Ne next few minutes are rather ex- citing; nearer and nearer approaches the drive; the tapping of spear-hafts on trees, the running fire of remarks kept up by the beaters to encourage one another; soon even the noise made by the dogs in brushing through the undergrowth can be heard; but not a sign so far of anything else The swaying of the bushes as the boys push them aside ean be seen now close at hand, and "No good, he has slipped away somehow," is the dom- inant thought in the mind, then-- "Why. there are the dogs already. and what in the world is the pony doing there?' as a chestmit outline with three or four small objects around it distinetly looms up with in the bush. The idea has not had time to take proper shape. when we realize that we are face to face with a huge, gaunt lioness, who stands just the edge of the covert, directly in our front, perfectly motionless, except the head, which i= well vp and moving slowly from side to side as she glances sus- piciously about: round her feet run several small cubs, rather larger than terriers. It is eminently a moment for action: an angry lioness with young cubs is not the sort of animal that one can trifle with with impun- ity. and there is a sinister look abont this particular one which distinctly savs "Look ont" The very feeling that a good deal may depend upon the success of the first shot serves to auell excitement and to steady the fore-sight on the mark, and even to bring % mind the tendency of Je rifle to throw Pich at, that short sat, the chance is a CONDITIONS OF EMIGRATION. Work For Right Men In Canada, Says Glasgow Paper. Some misundertstanding exists at the present time regarding the con- ditions of emigration to Canada, says a writer in The Glasgow Evening News. The ides has got abroad that the Canadian Government, finding that the number of emigrants arriv- ing from Europe was too large for the eountry, have placed solid. ob- stacles in their way. There is a certain amount of truth in this belief, but it is mixed with 'a great deal of falsehood, It is per- fectly true, for instance, that a large number of undesirable enugrants reached Canada last year from Eng- land, and it is aiso true that the Canadian Government have taken steps to prevent a repetition of this disaster. : For the arrival of these people in Canada was actually disastrous, both for themselves and for the country. The intention was right. These emi- gants had been sent out by charitable societies, working chiefly in London, in _prder that they might get a fresh chance. But as a matter of fact many of the people thus assisted had lost the desire or the capacity to work, while most of then were abso- lutely ignorant of how to work on the land --which is the great need in Can- ada. The result was that these un- happy emigrants, misled by people as ignorant as themselves, became un- employed from the hour of their ar- rival, and have so remained during the whole of last winter, In the Canadian cities, where they gathered, they have lived upon chanty. The bad conditions of the labor gpar- ket in Canada, it is true, were aggra- vated by a comparatively small har- vest last year, and by the, slump in the Umited States. But the Canadian Government determined, nevertheless, that this damping of the unemployed, by charitable societies, should not go unchecked. They obtained an order- ineouncil, therefore, which gives them the power to prohibit the landing in Canada of any person whose passage has been 'paid, wholly or in part, by any charitable organization, : or out of public moneys. And in order to get this prohibition removed, for it is now in force, such an assisted emi- grant must obtain the written auth- ority of the Assistant Superintendent of Emigration for Canada in London. This superintendent has just made an explanation to an interviewer of the manner in which he is using his new powers, and he is anxious to have it understood that Canada is not closing her doors against British emigrants. "Of those I have refus- ed," said 'the superintendent, "the majority lmve either no friends or no assured work on arrival, and do not belong *to the class vou could piace on a farm. It would be in- uman to let suchipeople sell up the few things they heve, and go out to a life for which they are totally un- fitted. I refuse to aggravate the sit- uation by letting more men, who can- not keepsthemselves, drift into the towns." As samatter of fact, there is now, and for many years there will be, am- ple work in Cansdaor the right kind: of 'emigrants. At this sewson of the year, there, is:always a big demand for 'skilled ' workmen, farm workers and domesticwervants. But it should be uhdotaad by every igang, w er hi s paid by him- self or BY t in Canada he must work, and k hard for his livelihood. This is a piece of infor- mation which, ap tly, requires to be repeated firmly. The emigrants who have been living upon charity last winter went out to Canada, ¥8it would (seem, with the notion that, in some mysterious way, all would be well with them if only they the land flowing 'with milk and honey. But Camada is no such land. It has work for those who are willing and able to work, and.opportunities for those men who are keen to seize op- portunity. There : is, however, no royal road' to:suecess in Canada any more thantin#Great Britain, and any emigrant who'thinks otherwise is cer- tain to be.disappointed. SUBSTITUTES :FOR' TOBACCO.

For nearly three hundred years Hyde Park has been one of the abid- ing centres of interest during the Lon- don season. Charles 1. threw open to the public the ancient manor, which Henry VIII. had aequired for his own enjoyment, and every day ever since time and humanity have been making | it historic. Every nook, every inch of | grass, is rich with romance and half- | forgotten story. Some heedless foot | to-day will wander over the very spot where, three hundred and fifty years | ago, a little group of courtiers dis- | creetly hid their smiles behind a hand as they hauled that man of wrath, | Henry VIII, mud-besmeared and ir- ritable, from the oozy slush into which he fell headlong. And then, at the very gates of the park, few will recognize the old "Tyburn road" in modern Oxtord street. A century and a half ago this was a country road, along which the two wieeled, springless carts passed from Newgate, conveying condemned men to execution. It was made a spectacle for children. Does not Jane Austen tell us that mere babies, instead of being taken, as now, for an airing in the park, were taken to witness the executions, and were then well whipped by "tender" parents to im- press the example they had beheld! Nobleman and highwayman, fashion. able beauty and staring sightseer jostled each other in the great pleas- aunce, and almost cheek and jowl drank syllabub--that delectable by- gone vanity which Mrs. Tweedie tells us was made of milk whipped up with wine and sugar, or cream whipped with cider. Hyde Park in those days was no place to roam in unattended at night. As late as 1772 the state of Hyde Park was so bad tha a bell used to be rung at stated intervals in Kensington to gather together peo- ple who had ventured from London and were wishing to return Horace Walpole one night, driving with a lady to some evening entertain- ment, was held up by a highwayman on the road. With the greatest calm- ness and promptitude the lady at once handed the errant of the road her purse, bulging with money. The man seized it and rode off, well pleased with the spoil. But the lady was more happy still, for she had come provid: ed for emergencies. The purse only coutained counterfeit eoin! In day- time honest folk, for health's sake, drank the waters from pools and sparkling springs, much as thev do at foreign resorts to-day. Beauties with the lark, would wash their faces with dew from the grass for the bene- fit of their complexions. Mrs. Pepys on various oceasions rose at Tour ofelock in the morning--and once at three--to go and wash her face in the renowned May dew--so her husband records. Tt was the well-dressed men and women of a still earlier period, when great ruffy were worn, who. ap- parently christened a famous thor oughfare adjoining. "The edge of the ruff was called the 'piccadilly,' as may be seen in several of the earlier dictionaries; hence the name of the fashionable street abut- ting on Hyde Park today, When there were practically no houses there, a ruff shop, kept by a man nam- ed Higrins, existed, and was called a 'piccadilly." Higgins is said to have made money, and built a row of houses to which he handed on his name." The term "Pickadill." however, is ap- plied to this district in Gerard's ""Her- bal," where it is' mentioned that "the small wild bughsse'" was growing on the banks of the dry ditches "about Pickadilla." Changes in the park have been frequent, and not all for the best, perhaps. The greatest change of all, for which habitues remain indebt- od to Queen Caroline, Consort of George 11., was the Serpentine. Why "Serpentine?" Perhaps five persons out of six, if asked to give the reason why this particular name was anvlied to the newly-fashioned lake, would not PAGE SEVEN.
