There was sport in the coon hunt for
our fathers, and in a measure a mans
Importance in some communities vas
judged by the number of coon skins he
could nail to HIS barn door after q hunt.
Why the coon has come to DO despised
by sportsmen In these latter days is one
of those things about which the remark
has once or twice been made that no
fellow a find out He is as cunning as
the fox and more difficult to trail. He
is, moreover, the cleanest of animals, and
eats only the most wholesome of food.
He should not be despfsed, surely, be-
cause he can be hunted only at night,
for in threading the woods In the dark
ness following dogs that you cannot see,
and whose baying alone breaks the still
ness, there is a most singular enchant-
ment.
Even in localities where coons are the
o abundant, nine out of ten of the
present generation never saw one, and
few people know anything about them or
their habits Although the coon prefers
the vicinity Of civilization as his habitat,
he plans to keep aloof from the eyes of
men,, and his habits render this an easy
task. By day he lies In out of the way
retreats, in the depths of hollow trees or
isolated c~revices and holes in the rocks.
He wanders forth only at night and al
though his foraging expeditions may take
him to the very doors of farmers, and
even within the boundary lines of vii
lagos, he never betrays his presence. If
more than one o o is brought to bay in
a tree they will invariably be females or
a mother coon and her offspring. The
scent the coon leaves ON the trail Is at all
times less than that of other game quad
ruped, but when the female Is nursing
her young during the summer months
her scent is hardly perceptible to the
dogs, thus saving her and her litter from
many a race for life. The scent of the
coon grows stronger as the cold weather
advances, and through November and
December the dogs follow 1t with COM

Done and Undone.

A Dickinson college student, In a
spirit of braggadocio, made a bet Of 50
with another young man that he could
put two regulation billiard balls In his
mouth ut one time. He accomplished
the feat, and is now a sadder but wiser
person. The balls stuck In his mouth,
and all efforts to dislodge the same
proved futile, until finally an NJ. D. was
called in, who, in order to get them out,
was compelled to cut a slit In his mouth
OIL each side. The other fellow paid the
bet.-Harrisburg Telegraph.

The following graphic description
Of the present appearance Of Bandai-

Of Shanghai: Il have just returned
from II visit Ia Bandaisan, the scene Of
the great eruption, a marvellous one,
wonderful and amazing sight. II

world had been at work fora thousand
years. Palmer estimates that 700, 900
900 tons OF stuff were hurled into the
air and scattered broadcast over an
area eight miles by six. all in five
minutes time or so. Certainly n
mountain 800 feet high is levclcd to
the ground, and on the floor where
the mountain stood huge volumes
Of steam are roaring out, as If all
tho fires of hell were underneath, us

HOWARD'S STATEMENT.

In the Howard libel suit in Jack
son, Tenn, he states that his real
name was g. f. Howard. His
father was j. B. Howard. His
mother died when he was about five
years old. He was educated by a
tutor and in the University College
of Loudon. He had one brother.
W. J. B. Howard, in India. HIS
father remarked. He could not
get along with his step-mother, went
to sea under Captain Stanton on
the steamer Horatio, went to the
east, returned home, ran off to New
York, and met Fred Hewlett there,
with whose life his own has been
strangely blended. He too had a
step-mother, was about the same
age, was an Englishman, and had
been to sea. They both decided to
go on the ship Tigris, in search of
the lost Polaris in the Arctic region.
Finoing they would have to join the
navy for three years, they changed
their names. The plaintiff passed
examination and went as Frederick
Hewlett on the voyage. His friend
failed to pass. Returning to New
York the plaintiff went to South
Carolina, taught a colored school
and then white school, and prac-
ticed law at WATERFORD, s. C. In
1870 he went to Robbins, boarded
with c. c. Brown, whose wife made
advances. He left. She followed
him. He was connected with the
Ellington riot, and said he thought
the United States army authorities
were after him, and changed his
name to Hewlett. After leaving
Lexington, Ga, he separated from
the woman, taught school at Beth
saida, Marietta and Atlanta. He
joined the Baptist church and was
ordained to the ministry. Was
called to the pastorate of the church
at Jackson in 1882, and the split
occurred in 1884. He had tried to
lead the life of Christian minister

THE PUGILISTS.

John Sullivan and Jake Kilrain
have had their pugilistic encounter
near New Orleans, battering one
another up for the sake of filthy
lucre and the questionable honor OF
being called the champion pugilist
OF the world.
These men, SO wonderfully made,
endowed with physical strength and
endurance beyond and above their
fellows, have deblsed theil man
hood and shocked the culture, re
finement and moral sensibilities of
the nation.
This smuggling business, or revival
of barbarism, is not in keeping with
this enlightened, progressive and
christian age, and deserves the con-
demnation of all right thinking
men. It's fungus growth of a
diseased and morbid appetite, be-
gotten in brutality, nursed and, fos-
tered in the slums of rowdyism and
debauchery.
The proper place for these slug
gers is in the coal or iron mines,
with pick and shovel, where their
great muscular powers could be
utilized in honest employment, in
developing the hidden resources
that nature has SO richly deposited
In hills and mountains of our fair
land.

HOW TO BUILD UP A TOWN.

The New Orleans Times-Demo-
crat makes the following very truth
ful remark about how to build up
Southern towns, and We commend
it to the attention of our readers in
the South, especially to those who
are seeking to develop industrial
towns
Nine years ago, Chattanooga,
Tenn, raised a large sum of money
for the purpose of advertising its
advantages. The money was we'll
spent, although it did not bring in
an immediate return. 1t made the
town talked about, induced capital
lists and investors to 60 there and
examine its advantages; and it was
built on solid foundations, these
visits resulted in large investments
and immigration. The results is
seen today in city of nearly $4,000
people where nine years ago were
but $4,000, and possessing hundreds
of new and profitable industries.
Chattanooga has proved what great
advantages come from advertising;
and every Southern city will reap
similar rewards from making known
its resources. We have noticed a
disposition on the part of some of
them to expect too immediate re-
turns from an investment of this
kind. They expect to see capital
and Immigrants pouring in the very
moment the appeal for them is made.
Chattanooga has learnt better, has
discovered that it takes some years
tor this advertising to have any eff
feet, but that if the advantages of a
town are really all it claims it need
have no fear that capital will not
ultimately find it and build it up.
Chattanooga was one of the first of
Southern cities to advertise. 1t is
consequently one of the first to
secure the benefits OF advertise.
