The report of the stale game warden was issued yesterday. "In the Salt River says the report, "this department rinds a larger and more important work in protecting the lives and property of the farmers than in protecting the game. The next legislature will be furnished by this office, with statistics of the loss' of life and livestock and barnyard fowls, suffered by the farmers of this valley, with a view to the strengthening of existing laws, and putting a stop to the reckless, irresponsible shooting, that has for years been indulged in upon the public highways and byways of the agricultural sections of the state, and the resultant loss of human lite, to say-nothing of the property loss, which, in the aggregate, must reach immense proportions.

We do not iiuite understand the Washington idea the geography of the Mexican border when it is said, according to the dispatehes of yesterday, that the state department has no objection to battles at Agua Prieta and Nogales, Sonora, since those towns are not so close to American border towaa that Americans will be in peril of stray bullets. The first Americans killed at the beginning of the revolution were citizens of Douglas, victims of the. fighting at Agua Prieta.

There was more or less prolonged lighting there, and day after day Americans in Douglas were killed or wounded. Two towns could not be in closer proximity than Nogales, Arizona, and Nogales, Sonora. They were formerly separately only by a narrow street. The old Brickwood saloon was situated so close to the line that the porch' of it was entirely in Mexico, and at the outer or-isputhcrn edge of the porch there was. a box similar to that seen on hay or stock scales.

It was filled with Mexican cigars, and patnns of saloons who wanted cigars of that kind were led by a bartender across the porch, where, he unlocked the box and allowed his patrons to become their own smugglers. One of the international monuments was set in a niche of the main building. On account of this and other complications the American and Mexican governments agrecdMo clear a zone 12U feet wide between the two towns. All buildings were removed so that there is. now an open space of.

that width. But a rifle shot fired from the southernmost point of Xogales, Sonora, would fly far beyond, the northernmost limits of Nogales, Arizona. Here is as good a place as any to illustrate the proximity of the towns in the old Brickwood hotel and saloon days. A citizen of the American town, one A. Bachelier, had offenoed against the regulations of Nogales, Sonora, and the police, with which that town abounded, had for days been lying in wait for him.

One day Bachelier was at Brickwood's liar engaged in a discussion -that became so earnest that when the other controversialist went out on the porch he followed him. into Mexican territory. He turned to re-enter the saloon but found his way barred by a grinning and armed policeman. He started toward the eastern end of the porch with the intention of escaping into the United States by that avenue, but another policeman interposed. Being "quick under the hat" Bachelier wedged himself behind the international monument set the side of the building.

He was now in America and safe, but for a free American his movements were painfully restricted. Brickwood was sent for and he readily consented to let a carpenter cut a hole in the side of the building behind the monument in order that Bachelier might back up farther into the United States. AVhile the coming of the carpenter was awaited a considerable part of llu-populatiou of Nogales, Arizona, congregated on the porch and engaged the two Mexican policemen in a diverting conversation. In the midst of the confusion Bachelier darted from behind the monument, ran to the eastern edge 'of the porch and northward into, the land the free- and the home of the brave. the present war.

The heaviness of Northwestern was associated -with that road's net loss of $600,000 for Noveihber. Southern suffered to a similar extent.

He njmlugizcs to public, opinion and to precedent and then enters upon his tribute to the Pullman comiiany service, though not necessarily, the business methods of the company in the past or in their entirely at the present. It is a reflection upon American citizenship and American courage and intelligence when such a fearless and graceful writer as Mr. Street feels it incumbent upon him even to hint at an apology for praising something which he thinks deserves praise for instance, the excellent, service of the Pullman company. It suited him. He believed lie had received full value for tile money which he had paid in advance for it, beside the subsequent tips which lie had administered to grinning porters with tfioir lull knowledge and not reluctant consent.

Mr. Street dealing with the methods of the company only insofar as they affected him. Generally, they may have been sinful at limes. The company may have had a policy or seir-aggrandize-nicnt which would not appeal to us or harmonize, with own various schemes ol soll'-aggrandize-men. The Pullman company, for instance, lias the.

reputation being a tax dodger, and we believe it is not undeserved. But from the earliest organisation of society, mankind unfortunately has been quite generally divided into two classes in this respect those who are tax -dodgers and those who would like to be. So, tile Pullman company is 110 worse than many of the rest ot us in either con-duet or will. But, we have found a way of keeping the Pullman company ami the rest ot us from sinning iu this and many other respects. The public conscience has been jolted, not the conscience of the Pullman company or the conscience of John l.loe or Richard Roe and other' citizens like the afore-' said Doe and Roe.

is the aggregated awakened conscience of a majority of citizens. It is only a wider awakening of the public conscience which first started the organization of society, to keep the stronger and more alert from preying upon the weaker and the easy-going. Under the operations Ibis amused conscience the Pullman company is doing belter than il used to do, and Doe and Iioe are refraining from doing many things they used to do. of them are learning tine tiling, that "honesty is the best policy." Of the morality of honesty lliey may care nothing. They may care liolhiug lor the rewards which it will bring them in heaven, but they find that it pays dividends oil i.irth where their investments are.

If we hail seen Mr. Street's encomium of the Pullman company in some journal devoted to the upbuilding or defense of sinful and heartless corporations, we would have suspected him of having Iwen subsidized und we are poor, weak, suspicious mortals. But when we saw that it had the endorsement which space gives in Collier's Weekly, it set to thinking.

Warden Willard says: "Our wild turkey, deer, antelope, and mountain have already been exterminated or driven out of a vast area of our once good game country, and at the present rate at which the" work cf destruction is going on, largely through the convenient and efficient medium of the automobile, our twenty thousand, or so, lineensed hunters, will finish the work of extermination beiore the genera! public awakens to a realization the situation, an.d demands a sudden and abrupt hart, in order to give our few remnants or game a chance to replenish.

Such an enactment would; I am sure, meet Utile or no opposition, except from a few "game hogs." such as can be found in every state, and in every communitv, and a few -(happily Verv few) sporting goods dealers, who would improvi-dently sacrifice their business future to the profits of today." The report states that the herd of elk introduced into the northern part of the state is in excellent condition. There are now between so and lOOJiead in the herd at present.

THE ANTIQUITY OF BELLS As is well known, bells were invented long lie-fore the Christian era and were used for various purposes, being attached to chariots, and also as a means of announcing the hour of day, as in modern trow. The earliest bells were made of pieces of metal riveted together, and often had as many as four sides.

But what is the largest bell in the world? That honor belong to Moscow. There a bell is to lie found which weighs oxer ISO tons, is 20 feet high and 2 feet thick. This monster, which is known as the Tzar Kolokol. was cast in 1733. but was unfortunately so badly cracked during the process that it was never actually hung.

For 103 years it remained in the earth. it was not until that it was raised by order of the Emperor Nicholas. A few years later it was mounted on aplatform and placed in one of the principal squares, and is now used as a place of worship, the crack in the side forming the entrance. But Moscow holds still an-' other record. The largest bell in actual use is also to be found there.

The melodious monster weighs a little over 12S tons, and its voice may be heard many miles from' the city. One ot the most interesting and perhaps finest toned bells to be found in Europe is the "Kaiser-glocke." which is hung in Cologne Cathetiral. It is comparatively small as regards size, being only a little over twenty-seve' tons in weight. Tile curious fact about "Kaiserglocke" however, is that it became so liadly cracked in 1S75 that had to be recast, and for this purpose the metal of a number of French cannons captured during the war of 1S70-71 was used.

Cases of this sort requiring the personal interference of the czar have occurred even in times of peai-e. but the first case in the present war has jqst been reported.
