Where Rats Are Priced as scavengers.

A man from New orleans says there is
one popularity about that city which
is never talked about. 1T is" he said.
"a city of rats New Orleans is below
the river bed, and IL is at all times low
and damp. The city is not clean. and
large wharf rats multiply in the business
portion OF the city in great numbers, and
the pests swarm about In droves. The
people Of New Orleans contend that the
rats are good scavengers, and help TO
rid the city of refuse matter. / don't
think there IS a city in the world, not
even New York or Paris, that has as
many rats 10 the square mile as New
Orleans. Atlanta Journal

Sam Honston's Fllntlock Riffs.

There Is an interesting relic in the posses
siol OF Robert VI. Dickerson. who lives near
Fayetteville. Ark. The relic is now nothing
but the barrel OF an old gun, supposed TO
have belonged To General Sam Houston.
and which bears the date Of 1918.
In November, 1864, Henry H Van HoOse a

the Roston mountains 20 prevent recapture,
and while hiding In cave In a very secluded
spot he found an old fnt-lock rifle In a
creyice Of the rocks. which, no doubt, once
belonged to General Samuel Houston, but
no one knows when or by whom it was con
cealed there. Evidently II had lain there
