We were shown the hoof of one of these animals, which I measured and found to be thirteen centimetres in breadth, or about four and a half inches. As I said before, the moose is dying out, but an effort is being made to cross it with Norwegian in the hope of reviving the breed. The emperor, as is well known, is a capital shot, in spite of the fact that he has little more than one arm to do his work with. His rifle is notable in an exceeding length of stock, by which he is able to shoot with his... right hand alone. By long practice and natural aptitude he has succeeded in making one almost forget that his left arm is very weak. As a matter of detail, the sportsman may care to know that the favor- ite rifle for deer in this place is thirteen mil- limetres calibre, with which eight grammes of powder are used. The trophies that here adorn the walls have a value far above those which decorate the hunting- lodges of most princes, who, when they go out shooting, stand in a fa- vored spot and allow the game to be driven by them, much as one would a drove of sheep or cows.
