! Wild sweet potatoes, tules, stray dsh,
! clans, dead turtles and seaweed along
the river bank at low tide. They are
unmolested. except now and then by a
hunter who finds his way down tho
| river. Most of the hunters give the
wild swine a wide berth. except now
and then as they happen to spy nice
little rooster on the bank and within
easy rife shot
A few years ago man and his fam
fly were living few miles below tha
colony. ON the banks OF the Colorado.
He had pair of very fine large stag
hounds, which the ovvncI claimed could
run down and kill any wild hog in
that region One day he took dogs and
rife aud went for a nice little one, Just
right for the oven He had not gone
far before he found large band Of
hogs, and turned his dog loose on them.
No sooner had they started when out
OF the tules near by jumped an enor-
nous boar, monster. who, with mouth
wide open, paying no attention TO the
dogs, made for the hunter The latter

You must mail your letters in
some postoffice on and after this
date. There is to be no more mail
ing of letters on the cars, as this
diminishes the postmaster's re-
ceipts on which his salary is ar
ranged, and at the same time rem
ders the mailing of improper mat
ter easier. This is a recent order
of the Postmaster general at Wash
ington and has good horse sense
to commend it, though making
the mailing of important letters a
little inconvenient at times, and
also causing them to lose a mail.
