Wild Cat Hunting Great Sport.

1t is not generally known, but it is
true, nevertheless, that right here in
Georgia there is exciting sport to be
found hunting fierce animals of the
dangerous sort. The wildcats which
thrive in the swamps of the Savannah
River, down in the good old county of
Lincoln, in particular, because there
is no railroad to disturb the calm
wildness of the valley, are calculated
to give about as much fun to sports.
men as the fellows have out West,
where all manner of wild beasts dwell.
These cats are nearly as large as the
average fox hound and have claws like
q small size tiger. They are of a dark
gray color and live in dens and hollow
logs fallen in the swamps and dense
forests of the river valleys. With n
large pack of hounds the cat may be
Jumped early in the morning and
run all day without ever affording
chance for shot at him, unless the
man with the gun goes into the swamp
at some crossing and waits for the ami
NAL to come skipping down the cane
pluho uuettu OA puo uouult5. lno
chances are ten to one that the cat
will, if tired by long chase, make an
attack and the hunter has to be quick
on the trigger or the beast will spring
upon him. Usually when the cat gets
tired he will back himself against the
trunk of huge tree and fight tho
dogs if they come near him. One
blow of tho cats claws will send a
hound bowling out of the Wilderness
of cane and briar, and they never
show much willingness to go back
again. A wildcat can whip any pack
OF hounds, and the only way TO get
them is to shoot them and take them
home dead. Several cats hunts are
being planned in Atlanta just ut pres

DeadWOOd is Delunct.

Deadwood, North Dakota. of to-
day is o struggling village of houses
and shops in gulch. The creek that
tears through the town makes noise
when men are not talking politics on
the bridges. Seventeen years ago the
water of this stream was clear, and
men could whip trout from its depths.
1t is red now, and when stranger to
the village stands upon the bridge he
is told by the natives that if he were
to wheel wagon from bank to bank
there would be gold enough on tho
tires of the wheels to pay his fare to
Spearish. And Speariish is goodly
distance. "That water is colored by
the waste of the Homestake mine"
these same natives will say. Continu-
ing they will declare "there is gold in
every rifle" The town is dead,
though. Its dance-houses are closed,

ture of show in the East, and tho

lantes of old used to string their VIC

Indians OF the Far NOrlL.

ga great crowd of dirty natives were
on tho bank to welcome US; their skin
lodges dotted the slope back of the
fort, and their long pointed canoes
were drawn up in rows in sheltered
curve of the shore. These Indians
were the "Dog Ribs" whose hunting
ground lies east and north of the
Great Slave Lake and in the Barren
Grounds. Their largest game con-
sists of the musk-ox and the reindeer,
found in great numbers in tho in
terror. These ''Dog Ribs" had been
waiting many days for the boat, were
short of ammunition, and rs there was
little food to be had near the fort,

eyes and wasted faces showed that they
had suffered; it seemed to me l had
never seen more forlorn, wretched
set of human beings. They were
dressed almost entirely in reindeer

how scarce game had been. did not

Derelicts at Sea.

The Admiralty and Board of Trade
Committee, of England, have recently
published n curious report on the sub
ject of the destruction of derelict ves-
sells. The committee recommends the
better reporting of derelict vessels, as
to their character and location and
the publication periodically of such
report. But, on the other hand, they
do not deem it necessary to destroy
abandoned vessels or to hold interna-
tional conferences to discuss the sub
ject. The report further states that
the danger of collision with derelicts
is probably much exaggerated, and
that to publish tho information con-
cering derelicts given in the charts is
sued by the United States would be
likely to mislead and needlessly alarm
English mariners. This casts u very
unjust reflection upon the value of tho
United States charts. If the derelicts
are menace to navigation, as tho
committees report virtually admits,
they certainly deserve more serious at.
