California will pay dearly in the
end for the bounty of So granted for
every coyote scalp presented to the
State Treasurer, predicts the New
York Tribune. This bounty law was
passed to protect sheep, but it has
been costly. Last year over $500, 900
was paid out, and this year it is esti-
mated that $3.50, 900 will be needed to
satisfy the claims. AS the coyotes live
on jack-rabbits, the slaughter Of one
pest will simply lead to the increase
of the other.

Russian OnIeIaIs Fear TurtIe Doves.

Most people regard the turtle dova
as an ideally innoeent creature, but
tho Russian Minister of War evidently
looks upon it as Il positive danger to
the stability of the Cars domains. A
lady prestidigitator from the Folies-
Bergere, in Paris, was travelling to st.
Petersburg TO fulfil an engagement in
that city. Along with her she carried
a number of turtle doves for profes-
siOnal purposes, but on reaching the
Russian frontier these were ieized in
virtue OF the War Minister order
really AIMED at the suppression Of car
rier pigeons-prohibiting the intro
duction of any kind of pigeon on any
preteNt whatever. Prayers aud ex-
postulations were in vain, but it is
pleasing to think that the general
commandaut of the town gallantly
undertook TO take gool care Of the
birds until their owner should re-

The Province of Quebec has law
bestowing 100 acres of Government
land ON every father of family who
has twelve living children. Up to the
present time TIA, 200 acres have been
given under this law. Not all of
these fathers, however, are satisfied
with the amount of this bounty, for
families of twenty children ere not
rare, and the fathers of these want q
proportionately higher reward. One
old gentleman, Paul Belanger, of
River du Loup, wants 300 acres in

The San Francisco Chronicle re.
marks: When Colonel Sellers in
''The Gilded Age" spoke of the i'm
mense sums of money he proposed to
make by dispensing his eye water to
the orientals he threw out hint
which inventors have been slow to act
upon. The conditions of life in the
Orient are very peculiar, and the peo-
pie have CERTAIN wants which we in the
Western world are hardly more than
aware of. Among these is some rem
edy against the encroachments of
white ants. These destructive insects
make life a burden to the Europeans
living in China and other oriental
countries. They eat everything made
of timber, and as consequence it is
almost impossible to keep house or
its adjuncts in repair. A eorrespon-
dent suggests that the known fact that
these ants have an aversion to lime
may put some ingenious American on
to an idea which if properly worked
out would be benefaotion to people
living in the Orient, especially Euro
peans, who would pay literally for
some practical remedy for the nui.
