To hunt the coyote by means of native
dogs is something humorous. No matter
how fleet p the dog, it always has some
of the conceit taken out of it when hunt
ing coyotes. Once aroused to its danger
the IshInael of the plains, lonely, stern,
and fOrsaken, takes its course over the
level prairie at rate which discourages
the bravest. AS Mark Twain says of the
coyote of the alkali desert, it "cuts n
long crack through the atmosphere and
the dog is suddenly alone in the midst of
q vast wilderness" With greyhounds il
is different Their long, slender legs can
overtake the feetest of the plains crea-
lures, and the sport has become fascina-
ting one to the members Of kennel clubs
throughout the west.
Probably the most remunerative hunt
ing is that by means of half-mie wires
introduced by a New England sportsman
this winter on the prairies of Western
Kansas. Hitching team to each end of
half-mile strand of wire it is dragged
over the curling buffalo grass, with a row
of sportsmen, their guns ready for instant
Use, scattered behind IL iii q long row.
The coyotes, rabbits, foxes and prairie
dogs, crouching low IN their faneied
security, are reused from their hiding
places and go scurrying here and there
ahead of the remorseless wire. When
the cavalcade has made a half-day's
progress the wire is swung around and
| another course taken homeward Parties
| have in this way killed as many as a
thousand jack rabbits in single day and
sent them to the charitable societies of
western cities. The harvest of coyotes
has also been large. land the bounties re-
eeived have made good return for the
days amusement.
Altogether the prairie wolf has proved
a very profitable creature In the west-
| erner-so profitable, in fact, that it is
likely that the legislature will be COM
PEELED to repeal the bounty laws, and
farmers who have been making $500 to
$1,000 year out of the wolf industry will
be driven out of business.

COYOTE FARMING IN KANSAS.
The Offer of Bounties for Scalps Re-
suits in Establishing a New Industry.
FROM the Sd Louis Globe. Democrat.

From the st. Louis Globe Democrat.
Abilene, March 31.-For years the
western prairies have been fruitful in the
production of that feet-footed nuisance,
the coyote. Surpassed in speed only by
the antelope and particularly fast grey
hounds. 1t is practically secure from
harm. In order to keep down their
rapidly increasing numbers, the Kansas
legislature authorized in 1889 the offering
by counties of a bounty for wolf scalps
Nearly every county in the state seized
the opportunity and gave, in order to
protect fOcks and chicken yards, a re-
ward of IS to "a per scalp.u The result has
been astonishing. Men have discovered
that it paid better to hunt wolves than to
raise crops, and several frontier counties
have paid from $1,000 to $500 a year in
bounties, the total in the state reaching
100000, with no appreciable diminution in
the coyote supply.
This fact puzzled the commissioners Of
several counties until it was discovered
that farmers were making business Of
raising wolves for the bounty to be Sc
cured BY means of wire fence enclos-
ures with ample burrowing grounds, the
creatures increase with marvellous rapid
ity. The growth of family of kittens
can alone be compared to them. For feed
the cheapest Of meat is sufficient, and as
nothing is required but the scalp in order
to draw bounty, the carcasses of the
killed wolves are used for sustenance for
those not ready for market. The best
sheep that the prairie farmer can raise,
can scarcely be sold for more than 80. To
produce several filters of wolves year,
each member of which is worth from So TO
81 exclusive of skin and carcass is, it is
seen, remunerative.
These wolf raisers also supplement their
home supply by constant hunting on the
plains Parties are formed which sur

trained retainer, and capturing, dead or
alive, dozens Of the lank, gray creatures.
The former 90 to swell the cash account
of the hunters and deplete that Of the
county treasury. while the latter are
added to the supply on the wolf farm.

OPINIONS OF AMERICAN GIRLS.
Editor Stead Found Them More Prud.
ish Than Their English Sisters.

From the London Sketch.
what do you think of American
girls?" was the question propounded to
Editor Stead who had Just reached home
from Chicago. He replied:
perhaps what struck me most in re-
gard to American women generally was
the way in which Americans treat their
womankind. We have all. heard of the
great place held by women in the United
States, and of the extraordinary courtesy
shown to them by all and Sundry. Now
it is quite true that they are out
wardly more respectful and polite but
they carry this TO the length of never
cOntradicting them. When / am talking
TO woman | treat her as | should do
man. | think it more respectful, and, in
fact, right, from every point of view"
Does the American girl enjoy a far
greater degree of liberty than the Eng
fish prototype?"

girl. | should say that she was quite as
sure of good treatment and respect when
walking in London streetior riding in
London omnibus as on the New York
pavement or riding in New York Park

tirely in Chicago. There a group of
women are doing a SPLENDID work,

Potter Palmer, Miss Jane Adams and
Miss Ada Sweet"

to the Woman's Club. which was ridicu-
lousy misrepresented, was entirely APP
proved by all the best people, both men
and women, in the city. All the nonsense
about my being threatened, etc, was
sheer invention
do you find the Americans more prud-
ish than the Epglish}v
Yes; although l did not find any
pianos with frills round their legs, I did
hear story of girl who, being left
legacy, always referred TO it as limb

queens, are not supposed to have any

of very charming and highly cultured

tribution may not have been very palat-
able, but it was at least honest.
