times, however, the hyenas are too
eager, and steal bits of meat while
the lions are still at their meal.
I have been told that the linn rids
himself of the nu sance In the follow

aside. When the lion Is looking the
other way the hyena dodges In and
rushes off with the meat. Presently
the lion throws another piece of

lion throws a piece very near Indeed.
The hyena, having become reckles,
makes a dash at this also, but tho
lion wheels round and lays him low
with a pat of bis paw and a growl of
annoyance.
1 remember at tho T'sutu on one

went on for about twenty minutes.
The next morning we found tho ca.

BUSINESS A lTtTLE BETTER.

B. O. Dun A Co.'s "Weekly Ilovlow of

Improvement Is not great. It is somewhat

Unu.nr, of Baltimore, Is distinguishing
himself. He was the lint pitcher In the

of the season to date night.
Tub ablest strategic pitcher In the League
this season Is pltchlna the game of his life

The stars of the old association number four

Cincinnati grounds. If a ball gets by the
first Daseman there Is nothing to stop it In
side of 100 feet, nnd even then chances must
be taken of Its caroming off on an angle.
Base-runners can take two or three bases in
such eases.
Thb work of Baltimore's young pitcher,
Brown, Is the surprise of the year. He is a
green boy taken off the lots around Balti

It is conceded that the Royal Baking Powder i9
the purest and strongest of all the baking powders.
The purest baking powder makes the finest, sweet

Certain protection from alum baking powders can
be had by declining to accept any substitute for the
Royal, which is absolutely pure
