Colonel Pridemore's letter was shown
to Mr. Edward u. Valentine. treasurer of
the Valentine Museum. who. with his
brothers. IL. b. and G.. G.. Valentine. has
done most patient and laborious work In
archaeology, and his views as to the i'm
portance of the find requested.
MIR. VALENTINES VIEWS.
After reading the communication care
fully Mr.. Valentine said
1t appears that Colonel Pridemore has
discovered the burial-place of the warriors
Of some great prehistoric battle.
The occurrence OF the remains OF so
large a number in one burial-place is rare
OF the forty or more mounds and graves
explored by us Uhe Valentine brothers,
few have contained more than a half
dozen bodies, and only in one have We
discovered as many as fifty. This was
on the property OF Mr. Bell, in Rock
bridge county.
In the Bell mound the bodies had been
placed In trenches walled and covered
with slabs Of slate, and several feet Of
earth had been heaped thereon. An evil
dence of the warriors belongings save
one spear-head were wanting. and 1t is
curious that implements OF war are sell
dom found. even in burials which other
wise appear to be the result OF great
conflict.
Colonel Pridemore's discovery OF beads
pipes. and other domestic articles bears
out the experience which we have had
that the prehistoric burials of Virginia
throw greater light upon the domestic
than the warlike character OF the aborigi-
mes.
Although the Valentine Museum con-
tains many thousands Of implements OF de-
strnction. such as tomahawks, spears,
arrows, etc. yet less than a dozen OF the
entire number have been derived from
burials. and even OF this small number.
some, perhaps. were accidentally deposit
ed along with the earth.

He tossed it into the CRATE.

A bright smile was her only answer.

1t Led Wealthy Man to Destroy His Gel.
lar of Wine.
William Greene, of Moorlands, Bick-
ley, Kent, generous, rich, strong, and
a Christian man with wide influence,
a beautiful family-and cellar full OF
rare wines. God spoke to him one day
and he was troubled about his wine
and banished it from his board, and
there it lay in the cobwebs and must
of the cellar under safe lock and key.
And day after day God said to him,
"What have you done with your wine?"
And he answered once: Il have locked
it fast and safe in the cellar and SO IL
shall be to the end"
"What end?" said the voice.
cave, what end l am on old man.
l shall die some day and what will be-

is the gospel of wine cellars according
to William Greene. Satan said, Sell it,"
and then the voice said, ITO whom?"
cor give it to hospital and be a bene-
factor and get your name in the paper"
and the voice said: "Wine is a mocker. :"
cor get the dealer to buy it back; the
price is a little fortune But the voice
said: at is yours, and your word is the
infinite law for that wine; wherever il
goes it will carry a message from you" "
Give the money away" and the voice
said: NO blessing of money can COM
mute for the peril or woe of wine; no
matter how wisely or kindly you plan,
or how long you postpone the denoue-

Here are some grim figures from the
annual statistical report of the morgue.
Last year no less than nine hundred
and nine bodies lay on the marble slabs
of the Paris deadhouse, and of this
great number more than two hundred
were unknown men and women,
claimed and recognized by none. Two
hundred and fifteen out of the total
number had lost their lives by drown
ing; falls had disposed of eighty-three;
hanging ended seventy-siX and firearms
sixty-eight, while suffocation, sta bling
and poisoning brought most of the rest
to their death. The greater number
of the corpses were those of men, and
the statistics go to prove what has
been already proved-that those who
commit suicide oftener choose the sum
mer than the winter for their rash
act 1t is strange, but true, that the
brighter and more hopeful the season
of the year the more unhappy souls
find strength and nerve to end their
miseries. AS to what percentage of
the morgue subjects are suicides, of
course no man can tell, but probably
it is very high. Black and White.

THE BARKING WOLF.
Trying to Get a Shot at Him on the West
ern Plains.

The scent of the coyote is not nearly
so sharp as his eyesight, else how could
any sage grouse or broad-bill duck
nest in coyote land without being
promptly found and eaten? AS to
game, he kills all kinds of small ground
game, young deer, and antelope. His
speciality, however, is feeding upon
dead carcasses of large animals, either
wild or tame. This being the case,
when on our buffalo hunt in Montana,
in 1885, we got many fine coyotes for
our collection by putting around the
buffalo carcasses numerous bits of lean
meat duly charged with strychnine
The ranchmen and cowboys of the
west have slaughtered tens of thous-
ands of coyotes in this way, to protect
their young calves and sheep, and
also to make money from pelts and
bounties
The barking habit of the coyote is
very dog-like, and his old name of
barking wolf is very appropriate.
When collecting mammals in Wyo-
ming, it was very common thing for
us to hear the coyotes around our
camp set up great barking in chorus
at the first sign of day break, just
when the roosters begin to crow on
the farm. 1t is a wild and unculti-
waited kind of bark, ending in fall
setto howl and resembles the cry of
the jackal of India more nearly than
any other sound ever heard.
But Sir Coyote is cute. He knows
exactly the distance that constitutes
fair rife-range, and he knows just as
well whether the stranger is armed as
does the stranger himself. When hunt
ing in the Shoshone mountains in 1889,
l wanted to kill coyote for special
purpose, but never once succeeded in
getting a fair shot even at 200 yards
For ten days we banged away indus
triously at every one we saw, but
never touched hair. Finally, at Cor
belts ranch, left the expedition, and
started north by stage, leaving behind
me rifle, revolver, knife, and even
scissors. Just two hours after l had
said goodbye to my shooting-irons,
and taken the buck board stage" we
saw a coyote ahead of us, close to the
trail. Seeing us coming, he selected a
soft spot, sat down within thirty yards
of the trail, and waited for us.
We drove up, stopped as we got OPP
posite him, and still he did not run
That villain sat there coolly and looked
us over without moving a muscle, but
with a 1eer that plainly said, Now,
don't you wish you had your old gum"
When we got through making faces at
him, and wishing for gun, a revolver,
or even a common stone to fire at him,
we drove on; and then he got up and
went on hunting for jack-rabbits. To
this day have been puzzling over the
question, "How did that gray rascal
find out so quickly that both the
driver and l were totally unarmed?"
! That he did know it perfectly well I
have no doubt whatever, for no coyote
ever waited like that for man with a
gun.--W. I. Hornaday, in st. Nicholas,
