KANGAROO HUNTING. A Dnnuerru, Sport In Which Th I ell Breu.tplale. Are Worn. Tiger skins, elephant tusks, antlers and a dozen other trophies decorated the smoking room of the huntsman. "You can't guess what this is,” he ■aid, and he took down from the wall a piece of curiously woven matting. It was about two feet square, green in color and five Inches thick. "This,” he explained, "is the breastplate that is worn in kangaroo hunting. Without it the kangaroo with a fore leg blow would smash in your chest as though it were a pasteboard box. This breastplate is a souvenir of an exciting kangaroo hunt in Australia. "AU big game enthusiasts are familiar with tiger shooting, elephant shoothig, the chase of the grizzly, of the boar and of the hippo, but I know few men who have ever hunted kangaroos. "Yet this i« an exciting and dangerous sport. The kangaroo when he is brought to bay will fight. He jumps straight at you, like a great cat, and with his amall fore legs he aims at your chest two tremendous blows—first the right and then the left —and these blows, with a speed and an accuracy that no prizefighter could equal, would kill you if they landed on an unprotected surface. So you wear, for a protection, this thick green guard, woven of native grasses by native women. "You hunt the kangaroo in 'sets.’ Eight huntsmen compose a set. and each set employs half a dozen native runners to stalk the kangaroo. "The kangaroo, on being stalked, comes tearing over the plain straight at you. He travels with the speed of an express train, and he makes great bounding leaps. One minute be is crouched on the grass, the next he is ten feet up in the air. and all the while, remember, be is going forty miles an hour. . “Hence he is a mighty difficult object to shoot. If you fail to shoot him, and there is no tree handy, then you must put your trust in your matting breastplate. This breastplate of mine, you notice, has a dent in it’’— New York Telegram.

TRAGIC IN ITS BREVITY. The Story of the Duel Between Hamilton and Burr. The story of the Hamilton-Burr <b.e) is tragic in its brevity. The little party of the— the rincipsls. their seconds and the surgeon—was on the ground not long after sunrise. The preliminaries were soon arranged. As Pendleton. Hamilton's second, gave him bis pistol, be asked, ••Will you have the hairspring set?" “Not this time,” was the significant reply, and then the men faced each •ther. According to the best authorities upon a disputed subject. Burr fired at the word At the report. Hamilton started forward with a convulsive movement, reeled, involuntarily discharging his pistol into the foliage above him. and fell headlong. Burr, with an expression of pain upon his face, sprang toward him, but Van Ness, his second, seized him by the arm and hurried him down the bank and into their boat. Hamilton, being lifted up. revived for a moment and gasped. “This is a mortal wound, doctor!" Relapsing again into unconsciousness be was again revived by the fresh air of the river. Tendleton knows.” be said, trying to turn toward his friends, “that I did not intend to fire at him." At 2 the afternoon following ba ted breathed bo teat.
