II always gives "a pleasure to record
the successful result Of well dire ed
effort in any department Of business,
especially when that success is backed
by merit, and tends to promote the
general! welfare. Competition in all
branches of business at this time is
great, and he who by energy, integ-
rity and perseverance, takes the lead is
certainly worthy of commendation.
In this connection we allude to DIR.
Tut, of New York, who has achieved
a great victyry over rong and long
established competitions in the intr--
duction of his world-renowned Liver
PIlls. 10 comparatively short time
they have surpassed, in q great degree,
pills that have been before the public
over quarter of a century. TUFTS
Liver Pills have gained a popularity
unparalleled, Ind0r5ed by the Medit
cal Faculty in Europe and America,
they have become q hGu sehold word
on both continents. Why is ? The
reason is o5vi)us, They are not q
worthless nostrum puffed up to de-
ceive the cledulOus, but are the result
of l)ng study and research by physi-
clan of thirty yea's' experience, OF the
highest standing in his profession
who values reputation mora than
money.
DR.. Tut deserves, and doubtless has,
the gratitude of thousands of invalids
who have been healed by his medi-
cine. In this age of qusckery it is re-
freshing to know that there is, at least
one who furnishes remedy prepared
on scientific principles, and offers it tC
the sick conscentiously. We record
lis success with ID feeling of pride
which every American should have al
the triumph of one of his couutrymen.

Wolves IN Russia.

Their nun ber in European Russia is
estimated al about 100000 head; and it
scarcely nedl be said the havoc they
make every year is immense. Inform
alton collected by the Imperial Stats
tical Bureau shows that in the year
1873 the id mage so caused in forty-fve
government of the Empire amounted in
value to 100000 roubles, or about
el.25O,OOOsterling. The losses are be-
lieved, too, to be vastly underestimate.
The value d live stock varies immensely
in different parts of Russia, and the Of
fetal estimate is said to have been based
on much TOD low an average per head
In one district Of the government Of
Perm it w4 reported that no damages
had been cd used by wolves, although it
was well Known fact that over 5000
head of rel deer belonging to the no
MAIDS had b zen destroyed by wolves in
single nigh, there In this and in some
other instances there was an obvious de-
sire on the part of the peasants to con-
csal the fats. The destruction is not
confined to cattle. In Kazan it is esti
mated IL 900 head of geese are thus
carried off every year, and in kaluga,
1000 head. Besides large numbers OF
camels, horses, and ponies; 100000 dogs
are thus destroyed every year by wolves.
In taking these figures into account, 1t
certainly does not appear an exaggerated
estimate that the value Of the live stock
and domestic animals destroyed by
wolves in Russia exceeds 100000
roubles every year; and if to this be
added the frightful destruction of rein
deer belonging to the nomad tribes from
tine same cause, the total becomes enor.
mously increased. The annual loss Of
human life by wolves is about 100 OF ap
ages.

Brave Miss Benton.

About a nile and half from Promp-
ton, Pa, says a correspondent of the
Philadelphia Press, lives Henry Shoo-
mover. a we'll known hunter and trap
per. A week or two ago Miss Ella
Benton, q niece of Mr.. Shoonover's came
to paw him visit. Miss Ella lived and
was born in West Virginia and can
handle gun as well as any of her male
friends. A day Or two ago she started
out, armed with her uncle's rife and &C
companied by couple of dogs, to shoot
rabbits. Soon the dogs struck the trail
Of an animal and began tracking him up.
The chase was much shorter than ex-
pected, for within a quarter OF mile
from where the tracks were first discov
cred the dogs stopped at the foot OF an
immense hollow tree and commenced
growing. Miss Benton thought there
must be coon in the tree, and stepping
close up to the opening at the foot she
saw something climbing the hollow IN
terror. She took careful aim and fired,
when to her horror, with a terrible
growl, an immense black bear came
tumbling down at her feet. The rifle
was a single barrel weapon and she
knew it would be useless to fly from the
wounded brute, so she drew sharp
hunting-knife which she always carried
when in the woods, and prepared to
fight for her life. She did not have to
wait long, for with a cry Of mingled
rage and pain the bear made toward her
AS he was about to strike her with his
paw she dealt him a blow in the neck
with the Knife and sprang nimbly to one
side. In doing so her foot caught in
the brush and she fell to the ground.
Before she could rise the bear again
rushed at her. He seized her by the
left arm, inficting severe though not
dangerous wound, and as he caught her
she gave hun another blow in the neck,
which completely severed the jugular
vein and killed him. When dressed the
bear weighed four hundred pounds.
Miss Benton will take the skin back to
Virginia with her when she returns.

A F,fty-One Million millionaire

It was announced in the Bee a few
DAYS since, by telegraph from New
York. that w. H. Vanderbilt had in
vested S5l, 100000 of the sum he had
received for his railroad interests in U.
s. four per cent bonds, and that he had
several millions more coming from the
syndicate, which, when received, he
would also thus invest. The annual i'll
terest on SOL, 100000 is s2,04o,Ooo, or
say, S5,S66 per day all the year round.
1t is probable that this Vanderbilt is
the richest man in the United States,
ready cash considered. And then whatl
Is he happier than the man who has
competence earned by daily toll " Can
he live better or with greater ease
And is such vast wealth in individual
hands dangerous to the Republic! To
all these questions 'no" seems to be the
proper answer. Men who accumulate so
much money, or men who can take care
of so much money, are merely money
worms. They have no ambition beyond
grabbing the cash. They are not am
bitious to rule or ruin land. Their
soul has gone out into the coin which is
their god, and there it has been forever
lost And on coin men cannot found
family. The Rothschilds may have done
so. and Vanderbilt is probably making
the attempt, but history contains few, II
any, instances where the effort SO to do
mas succeeded. On land, in countries
where, as in England. the laws OF primo
renitur- and entail are established
families can be and have been founded
but on personal property never-ol
hardly ever So long, then, as the
neople who cultivate the land own the
land they cultivate there can be ne

Point st. George, near Crescent City
has been recommended as desirab lie
stu alton for lighthouse in the four
last reports of the lighthouse board. In
their opinion it is one OF the most in
portant points for a sea coast light on
the coast of California. The bluff point
is about 1870 feet high, with level land
some distance back of it. A dangerous
reef of rocks extends six or seven miles
Oh the Point The passage between the
reef and Point st. George is much used
by vessels The steamer Brother iona
than was wrecked on this reef some
years ago, and General Wright and
staff, and others, and their families were
lost. An appropriation of $4,000 has
been asked with which to commence the
erection OF lighthouse and fog whistle
The northwest seal rock on the st.
George reef has been suggested as the
best site for the proposed lighthouse
The structure will be similar to the Ia
nous Eddystone lighthouse in the Eng

for is made by the present Congress
work will be commenced about July LIST
The structure will cost about $500, 600
