ABOUT COYOTES.
Supervisor Ross Takes Thy at Alleged
Economists.


Il hear lot of grumbling in certain
quarters about the county expanding money
for coyote scalps," said Chairman Ross of
the Board of Supervisors to a RECORD. trY1og
man yesterday. But" he continued. "I
notice that most of those Who are kicking
are persons who do not live out in The
country and have no reason TO fear The
coyotes. Now there are hardly three DE-
mands month for rewards for covote
scalps. The county gives s. apiece for
those OF the grown animals and 81 so for
the young ones. The money paid out win
not as rule average over $40 per month.

Now, only a short while ago. an ac-
quaintance Of mine lost $500 worth Of
sheep aud lambs on account of a raid bv
these destructive beasts. Thew don't xiii
the sheep to eat them, but, it seems, lust
for pure cusse6uess. Now, there's $500 at
q lick, and still you hear kicking about the
county encouraging the determination of
coyotes. Two OF them raided my place one
night and killed flock of geese valued at
about $40. They're death on chickens and
turkeys, too, as all the poultry men know.
They have been kpown to destroy $500
worth of property, of the kind | have men

Several explanations, all containing ele-
ments OF plausibility, as to the origin of
these designations have been given Dr
Wharton says the term bear in this connec.
ton comes from the proyerb about SELLING
the bears skin before the bear is canebfP
and refers to the contracts made bv The
spectators who entered into the visionary
South Sea scheme of about a century and
three, quarters ago. The well known bab;t
with bulls of tossing things up. and with
bears OF tearing things down, has probable
had much to do with the origin and an,aI;
cation of the terms. "ft'-A-

Will Menke was then recalled again by
the defense, and said he did not recollect
ever having said he would fill John" full
of holes. He add=d, however, that he
might have spoken hsrshly of Glacken for
whipping his sister, and he would say that
again to Glacken's face.
Slight took the sand again and reiter-
ated his former testimony.
Harris Morton was called and testified
that he was present when the row took
place between the elder Menke and

oscillates between this and that, that and
this, and facts become confused in his
brain. Teachers of instrumental music in

larly every day, explaining that an sppli-
cation of an hour each day will enable
them to accomplish far more than an in

most wonderful of all musical instru-

in cGitiyating each of the intellectual
faculties, that the lessons be regular and
continuous.
The leading educators of the country
seem TO agree that the elementary course
should cover at least eight years, and all
over the land the courses of study are made
upon that basis. We shall find, no doubt.
that the same standard prevails in our own
State. There may be other county course;
