A GREAT COON DOG.
An Indiana Pup That Found six-Year-
Old Cold Trail.


Several enthusiastic coon hunters the
other day were discussing the ring
tailed" chase, says the Wabash Times,
when ''Hime" Wellman, of Urbana,
came in and in a few minutes was do
ing more coon talk than all the balance
of the crowd put together.
''I'll tell you," said ''Hime," I've got
the best cold trailer on coon track that
ever anybody owned, and he is only
eight months old, too! took the pup out
the other day just to see if he could run
a track and to give him a little exer-
else, and he hadn't been in the woods
ten minutes until l heard him bark,
and he kept barking in such way as
to make me believe he had freed his
game, and then l came to the conclu-
sion that he was a still hunter |
found him at the mouth of siX-inch
tile ditch and he had pulled out one of
the tiles with his teeth and was chew
ing the end of it to pieces. As he was
a young dog did not want to ruin his
teeth and I pulled him away from the
tile, but as soon as l let go of him he
would jump back and tackle the thing
again with renewed vigor. 1 led him
to the mouth of the often and stuck his
nose in the end of the tile, but he paid
no attention to that but ran back to
the other one.
That sort of carrying on bothered
Arizona republican., 1895-01-04

me and I at last led the dog away, re-
marking that he was no good on earth.
After awhile turned him loose once
more and in less than three minutes he
was back at that tile biting pieces out
of it and barking like an old-timer. AS
1 saw the pup was bound to ruin him
self by breaking off his teeth l picked
up the tile, determined to carry it to
the house, so as to keep it out of his
reach. As walked along looking at
the marks of the pups teeth l made a
startling discovery, and what do you
think it wasp"
The spell-bound listeners of the
strange story held their breath for a
moment and in chorus asked: ''What?"
'Well, right on the inside of that
tile I saw plainly the imprint of a
'coon's foot, which had been made
there when the tile had been first
nodded and the clay was soft and
yielding. The tile had evidently been
made late in the evening and set away
to dry and the coon had run through
it the very same night and made the
track. The tile, of course, was after
ward dried and burned in the kiln, and
it has been in that ditch for more than
six years, and l say an eight-months-
old pup that can smell as cold trail

THE ROAD LESSON.
1t Should Be Taught in Every Farm Home
of the Country.

of the Country.
It has been truly said that the COM
mon highways of country are at
once the means and the measure of its
civilization. This being the fact, it is
astonishing that the United States has
in it the worst system of common
roads of any country enjoying stable
government By those who have
thought upon this important subject
it has long been conceded that the
wretched country roads in the United
States entail upon the industries of
the people the most serious tax with
which they are burdened. Indeed, if
there were any method by which the
weight of this burden could be COM
puted am persuaded that it would be
found to be greater than all the taxes
levied by national, state, city and
county laws combined. And yet the
lawmakers in this countr as a gen
eral thing, treat this great question as
one only of slight importance-a ques-
ton that each neighborhood should
solve for itself, or permit to go I'M
solved. AS long as this indisposition
on the part of the lawmakers lasts the
road question is likely in its larger as
poets to remain unsolved.
But in the meantime much may be
done by forces hitherto not enlisted
in the ranks of the road improvers to
ameliorate the sad conditions now ex-
isting, for any marked improvement
in the roads of a neigh borhoOd teaches
the people thereof lessons that mere
arguments never could. l allude to
the wives and the daughters of the
farmers of the United States. If they
will cast the weight of their influence
with the men who are earnestly labor
ing to improve the condition of the
highways, then great advance will
have been made in the good cause.
Bad roads contribute more than any
other thing to this feeling of dissatis-
faction among the young people; the
departure of the young people makes
farm life more tiresome and less
CHEEKY than it was before. 1t seems
inexplcable that American law
makers, when these facts have been
pointed out to them over and over
again, should still persist in regarding
the road problem as unimportant.
But they do so regard it, and it is nee
essary, before any progress can be
made toward better things, to recog-
nize that they do. When we have
reached this stage we are at the point
where women individually and col
lectively, that is, each woman acting
on her own account and all women
working in cooperation, can effective
~ assist in the solution of one of the
very gravest public problems that
confront the American people. The
men of the present and the men of the
near future must be educated to know
how grievously they are burdened and
hampered by the sorry roads which
connect village with village and farm
with farm. If the women of America
will take up this work of education
the lessons will be surely and profit
ably learned, and we will not much
longer be ashamed to have our coun-
try roads compared with those of
other countries. And there could be
no better time than this for the women
of America to begin their intervention
in this matter. The home is where
the best lessons are learned. Let the
road lesson be taken up at once. -
