THE ONE CENT RATE.

There was never a better chance for
Georgians to visit Savannah at so low a
cost, and under such favorable auspices.
The association has secured from the
railroads a l cent a mile rate to Savan-
nah from all points in Georgia outside OF
a fifty mile radius from Savannah, and
there Is no doubt that this reduction in
the rate viii bring as many, If not more,
people to Savannah than are brought by
all other inducements; and with 1 cent
mile rate there is no reason why every
body who wants to see Savannah should
not come in.
Within the other territory of the assoc
citation the rates already established will
prevail. that Is, one fare for the round
trip. The 1 cent mile rates will be good
from all points in Georgia from May IL
to 10, inclusive, or Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday, and will be good returning
until May Is, the following Monday.

EXPENSIVE LUXURY.
Our Annual Travel to Europe Costs Many
Millions.


There have been many estimates pub-
iished of the amount of money Ameri-
cans spend on their trips abroad. TAX
ing the second-class travellers into con-
sideration, | am of the opinion that 5000
is about the average expenditure on
the trip. 1t is mistake to suppose that
the wealthy traveller spends large sums
on the other side. Such persons usual
ly take servants along, and the ordinary
expenses are quite heavy drain for
rich man or woman. Once on the other
side, they go to some quiet place and
they usually count their pennies with
the care of those of less liberal means.
A large sum is expended every year IN
Europe in the purchase of clothing. I
think, however that this does not av-
erage more than 500 for each trav-
teller. Considerable money is spent in
the purchase of souvenirs, but this prob
ably does not exceed $50 on the average
for each traveller. Those who have been
in Europe before spend almost nothing
for souvenirs on following trips. Still.
when one thinks of the army that goes
to Europe every year, an expenditure
of 5000 for each person amounts to an
enormous sum. For the 100000 who
crossed in 1895 this would amount TO
500 100000. That sum, in my estima-
ton, represents about what Americans
pay each year for the satisfaction of
crossing the ocean and spending more
or less time in sightseeing in Europe

WOLVES IN NORWAY.
Ravenous Animals That Make Raids Up
on the Outlying Settlements

on the Outlying Settlements
During the last two or three years
wolves have without doubt increased
considerably in Norway. Not only
have they committed good deal of
damage among domestic animals, but
In some cases the elk have been so per-
secuted by them as to be Obliged
to take refuge among the haunts
OF men. Last winter, in the Selbo
district, near Trondhjem, the re-
mains of several elks were found in the
forest with the tracks of the blood
thirsty brutes showing plentifully in
the snow all around, while many more
of the big deer must undou btedly have
fallen victims to their ravenous appe-
titles. Two men driving d sleigh with
sleepers for the railway came across a
big elk in sore plight: three of the
pack which had attacked him Law
around dead or dying, pierced with his
great antlers, while he himself could
barely stand. Needless to saw. the
worthy peasants made the most of the
occasion; they killed the unhappy bull
and they claimed and received the gov
Only, however, when they are in
droves will wolves attack the larger
animals. AT first they try to stalk
their intended victim, and then, SPRING
ing upon it with long bounds, they en-
deavor to pull it down; failing In this.
they proceed to hunt it in the most
methodical manner two or three fol-
lowing the quarry closely, the others
endeavoring to cut off its retreat by
lying in wait and bounding at it's
throat. In spring and summer wolves
are rarely seen, as they keep for the
most part at the solitude of the wood
lands. but in severe cold and stormy
weather they collect together in packs
and descend to the more open and in
habited tracts of the country.
While herding his reindeer during
the long winter in the far north the
Laplander must be on his guard
against marauding wolves. Frequent
ly for weeks together there is no sign
OF the common enemy; then, without
warning, the cry of the watcher rings
out over the snow: THE wolves are
afoot!' And, however binding the
snow, however dark the night, all the
inhabitants of the camp rush forth to
defend the animals, which to the m rep
resent wealth, clothing, food, existence
itself. In such melee the small, wiry
dogs, of which the Laps always keep a
number, perform an important part,
barking and sn apping at their big OPP
ponents in the most plucky way, and
distracting their attention generally
until the arrival of their owners upon
the scene.-Pall Mall Gazette.
