EXCITING CHASE OF A CATAMOUNT
Bay by Tom HilsOa and COOllv
SAot by Will Gray

A'itLE, Dec. 2 2-Libcrty township
u usually quiet, very quiet, but
once in while the boys stir up
Some IN an then We enjoy it Us
much as anybody.
Fox chasing is somewhat COM
mon in this neighborhood and we
did not think anything strange on
last Tuesday night when we heard
the familiar toot of Tom Hitson's
horn aud the bowling OF his dogs;
we merely took it for granted that
there would be, at least, one fox
less in the community Wednesday
morning. 1t is a sure thing that
n nrou never loved chase better
than Tom Hiison, bu, Nimrod may
II Il have hunted with hounds; but
to my story.
With horn footing and hounds
h Wing, Tom started in the direc-
ten ot Mr.. McMahan's where he
WAS joined by Mr.. McMahan, Sam
McMahsn and the Brawley boys,
aid ,hey all started for the Brad
shaw mountain for fox chase
No sooner than this point was reach
cd than the hounds bounded away
in pursuit ofsomething the boys
supposed to be fox. With deaf
ening yells the happy hunters per
sned the r game all over the hills
and vallies OF Usage. SO closely
they pursued him that he was com
pciled to take refuge in tree. II
was at. once agreed that Sam Nc
MahanA should climb the tree and
disiodxc the supposed fox. When
In f.fx feet Of tie animal, Sam
noticed that what they had
supposed to be fox, began to
s~ ell up and exhibit signs of the
tisvr species, and Sam informed
them that "to snan up y tree" i,
looked like huge catamount. Mr..
McMahan ut once armed himself
with club and stood ready to
break the animals neck as he ump-
Ned from the tree; sure enough out
bounded the wild cat and Mr.. Nc
Ehan made a tremendous blow at
1.-THE ashy monster; but unfortunate
ly his club broke and he fell
Isprawling into the path Of the cat
(which lacked tat few inches run
hing over him. Away, went the
pack of hounds and the excited
4 Hunters tor another mad chase, ar
ktil Mr.. Cat WAS forced to take an
zother tre., where he was cody shot
by Jeff Harbcrt and Will Gray who
have just retired from city life and
knew nothing of what danger they
were in. But call is we'll that ends
Ewc!s."
By day light all the hunters
:. were at their respective homes, and

caused by Cleveland and Dins-

GOuld'S Wealth.

No two estimates agree as to
the amount of Mr.. Gould's for
tune. The most conservative fig
ures place it at about 60,000,0O0,
while some people in Wall street,
who think they know something
about his accumulations, figure
that he must have gotten together
fully sloo,oOo,ooo.
His known holdings Of secur-
tiles are about as follows: Twen-
ty-two millions par value OF
Western Union Telegraph, which
at today's prices would fetch
about s1s,7oo,0o0; s10,000,000
par value of Missouri Pacific which
is now worth in the market S5, 500,
900.
He is now supposed to hold in
the ncighborhood of s8,000,O00,
probably more, of Manhattan
Railway stock, worth $40, 100000.
His holdings of all these stocks
have been larger than this but
he sold them to invest the
money in new issues of bonds
Of the Missouri Pacific and
Manhattan Companies, or to finance
these companies till bonds could be
issued
Excellent information is that
| he holds about one-third of The
bonds issued on the Missouri
Pacific system, which would bt
about 330,000,000. His estate
olds over s12,O00.00O of Wabasl
Railway stock, which shows loss
Of between s4,000,000 a nd $4,000,
900.
AS long ago as 1884 Mr. Gould
was known to hold about 49,,
| 100000 of frst.class railway
mortgage bonds upon roads 9th
or than those controlled or man
aged by him. Besides these
items, he had large investments
in number Of properties con
cerning which tho general pub
lie knows little or nothing.
His holdings of Union PScifi :
aud Kansas Pacific oonds, whic
have never becn stated, must bt
large, but it is not believed thai
he owned of late years much i
any Union Pacific stock.
From tho foregoing figures
| which arc approximately correct
it is easy to figure up in the neigh
borhood of $75,00O,OOO. Of lat,
years his fortune has increased
rapidly, owing to his enormou. in
come from his holdings Of Western
Uunion and Manhattan stock, to
say nothing of his investments in
bonds. His income from these
three sources alone cannot have
fallen s3,ooo.ooo year, and
has probably exceeded that
amount.

The Latest swindIe.

:. OF all the various methods Of swind-
ling the innocent and unsuspecting
farmer this is the latest, as well as the
most ridiculous we have ever heard of;
"a well dressed man, driving through
the country selling fruit trees, stops at
a farmers house. While there he is
taken very ill, and asks the farmer to
hand him bottle of medicine out Of a
grip, which, however he fails to find.
He then asks him to go or send some
body to town for prescription, giving
him fountain pen and a fruit-tree
blank on which to write the prescrip-
tion, and as the medicine is of such a
nature as to require the purchasers
signature the unsuspecting farmer
signs it. Just then stranger No. Q
makes his appearance from the opposite
direction, going to town. He stops
for drink of water, and as he is COM
ing back at once and is visiting in the
neighborhood, he is asked to take the
prescription to town. Shortly after he
has gone No. / finds his medicine,
RECEIVERS, and goes to town. In a few
days the farmer has to pay a note and
the prescription never comes back"

The Hill Murder Conspiracy.


The excitement which has always
prevailed in the vicinity of Chestertown
regarding the murder of DR.. J. Heighe
Hill, near Millington, on the night of
Saturday, April %, was suddenly
heightened Monday by the arrest of
four persons, all implicated in the
awful crime.
The persons arrested are Henry Hyn-
son, Walter Rowe, John Potts and
Frank Baynard, brother to Joshua
Baynard, who was detained in Kent
county Jail some time ago as witness,
and is now held as an accessory after
the fact. Further arrests are expect
ed. Two importa mt witness have dis
appeared, but will be caught. The
colored men in Jail refuse to say word,
but it is understood they will prove di-
rectly that the killing of DR.. Hill was
a deep-laid scheme, in which the prev
ious killing of Tom Campbell in the
winter was sworn to be avenged. and
that DIR. Hill was to be the victim.
The scheme, it is claimed, was all
concocted at Cooper's house near where
the Hill tragedy took place. In the
Campbell case DR.. Hill gave his opinion
that the mans neck was not broken,
while DR.. Todd said it was. DR.. Hills
decision was attributed to hatred of
colored people, and SO he was to be
punished. It was known on the night
of his murder that he had been sent
for, and the assailants were in waiting
for him.

''Big Six" Typographical Union,

ed resolution refusing to permit its
members from giving support to the
Republican ticket with Whitelaw Reid
on it as candidate. Reid, as editor
of the Tribune. has constantly and
persitently resisted the printers union
and refused employment to its members.
1t is now their turn, and they will
strike back at him, and refuse him
help now that he needs it. The
action of the Big Six will probably be
followed by other unions, and it may
be that Mr.. Reid will find the whole

The Dover correspondent of the
Euery Evening gives the following
account of how a big wedding resulted
from a man become converted and
changing the habits of his life:
ga wedding occurred here last Thurs
day night, which for length of court
ship far exceeds that of the average
Dover belle. The contracting parties
were William Seize and Marium Smith,
both colored For over 30 years has
Marium been smitten with William,
and all that time has she acted as
housekeeper and helpmate for him.
Seize weighs about 400 pounds and
measures about IA inches more around
the waist than he does from the crown
of his head to the sole of his feet. 1t
is needless therefore, to say that it was
big wedding. For some time past he
has kept gambling house on the out
skirts of the town, but recently he was
converted and his gambling outfit was
destroyed, and he and his housekeeper
were united in the holy bonds Of we'd
lock.'l

Care of the Wheat Crop.

What an inconsistent being is the
average farmer regarding his wheat
crop. He pays for his seed, his ferti-
lizer, and his labor watches the grow
ing crop for months anticipating the
return it will bring him. 1t ripens, he
cuts it, he shocks 1t, and that settles it.
There it stays until he can get thresh-
ing machine probably one week, prob
ably six, catching all the rains and
heavy dews followed by torrid sun i,
that intervene.
When finally the wheat is market
able, he submits bis sample, and be-
comes highly indignant at being quoted
ten cents per bushel below market
price, owing to sprouts. bleached or
musty grains, some of which are bound
to exist in wheat so neglected. So he
proceeds year after year, and unless
the season be one of long drought,
having the same experience each year.
Farmers, reform if you have not
now room to care for your entire crop,
stack it we'll. The usual cry is, tfat
there is Sc little profit in wheat of re-
cent years, that it does not pay to incur
the exta expense of stacking; but the
additional expsnse is very small, and
in fact nothing, compared to the loss
you sustain by allowing it to remain in
the shock, and consequently become
damaged.
This neglect of wheat is a growing
evil among the farmers and one they
should check at once, for in some Sec
tions of this peninsula where the wheat
was once sought after by makers Of
high class flour, the general grade has
SO deteriorated that millers of this class
will not buy it, and the grain buyers
are compelled to ship TO the large mar
kets, where it is sold at reduced value
for shipment and manufacturing pur-
poses in which wheat of inferior grade
is used.

In THE National Conventions of the
two great parties the unusual has
happened. In the Republican Con-
yention the men who had dictated the
policy of the party for many years
were beaten completely and decislyely.
They were unable to dictate to the
delegates or to deceive them into max
ing nominations suitable to that wing
Of the party represented by such pro-
fessional politicians as Quay and
Blarkson. In this case it was rather
the victory of the Office holders over
the Office seekers. In the the Demo-
cratic Convention now in session every
thing goes to Cleveland because he
represents the ideas which have become
grounded in the minds of the people,
and because he has proven himself to
be man able to cope with the most
serious and Importance questions OF
the times. Other names have been
mentioned in connection with the
nomination, the names too OF good
men, but Cleveland stands first. He
has made for the party issues which
cannot be overlooked, issues which the
people want to see settled, and the
people naturally look to him to settle
them.
There never has been time when
he was afraid to perform duty and he
regarded personal and even party sue
cess as of important secondary to the
welfare of the country. The platforms
of the two parties are such that the
campaign must be fought out on the
line of principle the dead issues of
the past are settled and the people are
now thinking of business Of present
and future Importance. The Repub-
licans will find reference to the war OF
No avail; they must look the question
of tariff reform squarely in the face
and they must assume the responsible
ity for the force bill with the conse-
a uent increase of 500, 600 in the num-
Der Of Office holders. They must ex-
plain to the working people how it is
that wages do not increase as the taxes
go up, and to the farmer why the prices
of land and produce constantly decline
in the face of tariff laws which it is
claimed were passed for the sole pur-
purpose of helping the tillers of the
soil. This will be campaign OF
principle in which the clap-trap which
has blinded and deceived the people
these. many years can have no place.
The stump speakers had better be look
ing up facts concerning the tariff
question for it will be the question of
the campaign.
