Hunt McCaleb, who was adjutant gen­ eral of the city forces when Galveston waa under martial law. When Gen. Thomas Scurry was appointed to the military command of the city by May­ or Jones he at once offered the ap­ pointment of adjutant general to Col. McCaleb. Why he did so nobody £p- peared to know, for McCaleb is not popular. In normal times he Is an unassuming newspaper plodder of the most ordinary stripe. But he seems fairly to ravel in a. row, and perhaps "that is why Gen. Scurry, appointed him to the respoasib ĵBbitiou of adjutant generalhis hands the mass - , It usually is at this season year that the native hunter (jfttite, the man who hunts and excitement the sport __ Ms outfit in shape f*r the IW1 or win tjer outing and sets himself the of deciding upon the place at which he will make his oantp. He has a wide territory to look over and a va.- riety of big game from among which to choose hj$ quarry. A glance at the accompanying map, upon which the habitats of the big game are charted, will convince even the most skeptical that there are still tast areas fn the United States and in British North • America "where primeval stillness reigns" and where man is only an occasional nightmare to the 'beasts which dwell therein. Years ago it was the ambition of the American huoter of big game to bring down a mountain sheep. That ambition has faded away, not so much because of a too plentiful sup­ ply of mountain sheep, but largely be­ cause the region inhabited by th**e sheep or some species of them is more accessible than it used to be. Speak­ ing generally, the mountain nheep roam over the region of the Rockies, from New Mexico t* northern Alaska. The four species of mountain Sheep and the localities in which they are found are: Nelson's, in the southern ranges of the Rocky mountain^; the big horn, which range from the mid­ dle Rockies to British Columbia; Stone's big mountain sheep, which recently have been discovered hy him in the Stlckine river region, north of British Columbia, and the white, or Ball's, species, which are found from la^d tojpenatrate. & the and la the surnmerthe open country is colr^ed iritk iwa^i that are al­ most impassable.

But k is unlawful to kill an­ telope at any time in Texas, North Dakota or Utah. The moose i3 one of the most sat­ isfactory kind's of big game to get after. He may be hunted from Maine to Alaska. Any nimrod who lives in the east and wants to distinguish him­ self has the opportunity of going up into Maine and killing the King of Moose, the monster "specter" that carries around in his interior a lead mine, the gift of unsuccessful hunt­ ers, who, after emptying their maga­ zines of bullets, have taken to the tall trees or to the nearest cave. And at Cook's Inlet, Alaska, was killed the largest moose that ever has been bagged. So here's the range of the moose: Maine, New Brunswick, Cape Breton, Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, Quebec, the Ottawa district of Canada, around Georgian bay, in northern Minnesota, and in the region of the Rockies as far south as northern Wy­ oming, and running north in Alaska to Cook's Inlet, and beyond. No moose, kso, Nebraska, Utah, Montana, North Dakota or Oregwn, but m»y be feasted in British Columbia, Manitoba, North­ west Territory, Washington. Nova Scotia and Newfoundland. Bears are to be found almost $v«rr- whire. The bear, in fact, is * sort of household animal with the big -̂game hunter. In some parts of the east a mail can go out into his backyard and shgtot a bear, akd he has to do it oc­ casionally,: if he wants to save his 'winter's supply of bacon. The black bear ranges over half the states in the Union. To particularize a few locali­ ties, he is found in Florida, Louisiana, Pennsylvania, in the Catskllls and Adirondacks of New York, in Maine, northern Michigan, around Georgian bay in Canada, in Wyoming, . Mon­ tana; in fact, in all the Rocky moun­ tain states, from New Mexico north, and across the line in British Colum­ bia. The grizzly bear is found anywhere and everywhere in the Rockies, from New Mexico to Alaska. California has two grizzlies of her own, one species found in the north and the other in the south. "Way up north there are some interesting species of bears. The Yakutat, a big brown fellow, is found around Yakutat bay in Alaska. The Kadiak bear, the largest of all bears, is named from his principal haunt, Kadiak, one of the Alaskan islands. The polar bear ranges across North America along the edge of the ice, and in summer he gets somewhere further south. Mountain lions, which is a general name for cougars, pumas and the like, are found nearly everywhere .in the Baker. te 0700.600* j Alvord. note hitler in ihaTi>aj*k Kit New York h a s ; s t o l e n $ 7 0 0 , 0 0 0 o f ' thfe bank's funds-' am has abscond- S edl The bank's of- ficl |rs positively de­ ny] that anyone in th<l bank or that any of its deposit- j ora Was in collu--; sion with Alvord. ̂ He had been twen-: fey years in the| bank's employ, six years as its note teller, and had the implicit confidence of * its Officers.

During the ten days of martial law forty-six general orders were issued. Gen. Scurry says they were models of military conciseness. In these forty- six orders this newspaper plodder, whom the hurricane had tossed into a position of despotic power second only to the -military governor himself, gave to the town a code of laws which brought order out of chaos, defined the common law rights which would be respected and indicated in no un­ certain terms the common law rights which ceased to exist under this fear­ ful and peculiar military despotism. But more wonderful than this was the fact that the people proper, who had been governed with an iron hand and often at the muzzle of a rifle, rose up and proclaimed against the proposed abrogation of martial law. It was McCaleb who first suggested to Gen. Scurry that the time had come to get back to civil government. As the ad­ jutant general <had been in the closest touch with the people, Gen. Scurry placed great store on his opinion. He saw the correctness of it, and told the mayor that martial law must cease, and in twenty-four hours the machin­ ery of civil process was again in mo­ tion. .

The mountain goat ranges from (he Cascade mountains, in the north­ ern part of the state of Washington, northward into, Alaska, probably to Cook's Inlet, It is found also in New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, Wyoming. Idaho, Montana and California. It is the musk ox which has taken the place of the mountain sheep in the heart of the big game hunters of America. To come back from the northern part of British North Amer­ ica with proof that you have killed a musk ox stamps you as a sportsman whose stories are entitled to respectful consideration. There are three regions in which the. musk ox may be hunted. These animais roam north and east of the Great Slave lake, as far east as the Great Fish river, coming down to 60 degrees of latitude. Then they may be found near Franklin bay and In East Greenland. Hunting the American buffalo is a lost art, because there are no more running wild in the United States to hunt. But one may go way up in British North America and try his luck there. A herd of bison, num­ bering, according to various accounts, from 75 to 150, inhabits the region south of and about opposite the cen­ ter of the Great Slave lake, and run­ ning southwest for about '200 miles. Many well-known hunters have tried their skill in this region, but it is not on record that- a white man ever killed one of these bison. It Is \ MAP SHOWING WHERE BIG GAME IS TO BE FO however, may be killed at any time in New Hampshire, Michigan, Wyom­ ing, North Dakota or Idaho. Of the woodland caribou a few are found in Maine, though it Is not law­ ful to kill them, but they may be hunted in Newfoundland, New Bruns­ wick, Quebec, Nova Scotia, Cape Bre­ ton, Manitoba, northern Canada, Min­ nesota, northern Idaho, Washington, and then north to northern Alaska. If they are found In New Hampshire, Michigan or North Dakota it is un­ lawful to kill them. The barren ground caribou inhabits about the same region as the musk ox, but they range 400 or 500 miles further south. A new species of cari­ bou found recently in the Sticklne river region, north of British Colum­ bia, has been named in honor of Its discoverer Stone's mountain caribou. Best known, perhaps, of all the spe­ cies of deer, because of the wide ex­ tent of territory in which it is found, is the Virginia deer. It is a brush- loving animal, being most persistent in this respect, and, therefore, is 'a favorite among hunters. Its principal haunts are in Florida, Virginia, the Adirondacks of New York, Maine, New Brunswick, Canada, the northern parts of Michigan, Wisconsin and Minne­ sota, in Montana and in the Rockies. The home of (he mule deer also is in the Rockies. The black-tailed deer are found in the Cascade mountains, northern California, Oregon, Washing­ ton and northward into British Co­ lumbia. Elk may not be killed in New Mex- mountain forests of the. Pacific slope, from Mexico to British Columbia. Peccary, or wild hog, are found in southwest Texas, Mexico and Arizona. And sport with the alligators of Florida, Mississippi and Louisiana must not be omitted In the list of big game. Yellowstone Bark, of course* abounds with big game, but hunting t$ugf$T is forbidden. , A •Cos Letter May Joseph Leiter, the rich young Amer­ ican, has left Paris for his home, and the gossips say that he has won his suit with Mrs. Stuyvesant Le Roy, and that they will be married very .soon.
