The Street Sweeper Runs Too Early
in the Evening.

For some time past the street sweeper
has started on its rounds early in the
evening Persons going about the
paved streets shortly after nightfall
have been covered with dust and filth.
It used to be the custom to start the
sweeper no earlier than II o'clock at
least, and midnight is none too late.
Last night the street sweeper was run
ming on Kansas avenue at $50. A few
nights ago East Sixth street was swept
at p. m.
People who were abroad last night
were covered with clouds of foul, chok-
ing dust, as there was a slight wind
blowing. The dust was tossed up in
such manner that it reached the tops
of the buildings and made it impossible
to see across the street. Of course it
may be unpleasant to the driver of the
sweeper to do his work after midnight,
but that is the only proper time to do
1t; just as much SO as it is the Scaven-
gers The early sweeping is a nuis-
a-nce and an outrage.

Hunting the Wild lsoaf.

The White Goat or Rocky Mountain
Goat AZ it Unfortunately called, is q
species of big game rarely hunted by
%sportsmen. This is not so much because
Of the difficulty Of killing the
animal, nor because Of it's actual
rarity. 1t is a stupid animal, easily shot
when once found. 1t ia not, however,
found in the usual hunting grounds, as
are bear, deer, elk, etc. 1t is remote from
the common localities, but where found
is in goodly numbers. It ranges very
high up in the mountains, above timber
line usually. among rocks and cliffs.
This requires great labor to get to it, but
once there the hunter will get his game
nine times out OF ten.
