Worries of western Roads.

Some of the Western roads are disturbed
over the prospect opened up before them by
the Christian EndeaVor convention in San
Francisco, and several of them have de-
clared fatty if the matter was TO be done
again 1t would be done in a manner vastly
different from that in which it has been
handled. There is no chance of the roads
getting away from the round-trip rate of
$25 which has already been made by the
lines in the Western Passenger Association,
for the reason that some of the roads are
tied up with contracts which will hold them.
If the association by any chance should de-
eide that it would not make the low rate
these roads will be compelled to take indi-
Vidual action, and, a matter OF course,
the other roads will be compelled to follow
their lead and make whatever rates are
called for by the contracts, and the low rate
will prevail either with or without the sane
ton of the association. The complication
by the prospect of trouble over the inter
mediate rates A rate of $25 one way to
California will cut all regular tariff rates to
intermediate points west of the Eastern line
of the State of Colorado and with the in
termedate rates to Colorado points in a
state of decentralization it will bring about
a troubled condition in the rates to the
Missouri river. Then the Southern Pacific
insists on selling east-bound tickets at low
rates at intervals up to the middle of Au-
gust and that means that low rates will be
in effect between Denver and Chicago for
the months of July and August.

PORK PACKING INDUSTRY.
A New Enterprise That Has Already
Passed the Million Dollars
a Year Mark.

Butchers there have been in plenty, but
pork packing is a comparatively new in
dustry to the city. There are now five
firms engaged IN this industry. and the
bulk of their business amounts to over
million dollars year. All Of these firms
cure bacon and smoke hams after the most
approved modern fashion. and on a large
scale. but only two Of them, Carstens Bros.
and the Frye Bruhn Co. have slaughter
houses In connection with their pork
packing establishments. OF the other
three the G. Fl. Hammond Co. and
the Cudahy Packing Co. are branches of
immense pork packing establishments at
Omaha and the third is the well-known
house of Louch, Augustine & Co.
Owing to the low price Of wheat hog
raising suddenly became one of the most
profitable branches of farming, and the
number raised during the past three years
has increased enormously. The two pork
packers of this city who do killing send
their buyers to the Palouse country, to

LAGER BEER REWERIES.
A Period of Sharp Competition. Fol-
lowed by al Series of Con-
sOlfdafiOns.

Breweries would seem TO have been late
In starting here the first enterprise in this
direction only dating back TO 1883. This
was the Bay View brewery, which was
only a small plant for making what is
known pretty generally as steam beer.
Its proprietors. the pioneers in this new
enterprise, were Andrew Heinrich and
John Kopp. Two years later Mr.. Hem
rich's father came on from brewery he
had been operating a Alma, Wis, and en-
tered the firm. Soon after that r. K.
Sweeney and III. Rule started another
brewery In short time Mr.. Sweeney
bought out Mr.. Rules interest. and In the
meantime John Ciaussen had set up in the
business, only to join Mr.. Sweeney as a
partner later, and in 1891 Albert Braun
erected still another brewery. with the
aid of number of local capitalists.
Then in short time. after a sharp COM
petition among the rival brewers, the last
firm TO enter the field was consolidated
with the Heinrich brewery at Bay View.
Then, in 1893, the three large breweries
consolidated, with the title of the Seattle

The Pioneer Flour Mill.
r. w. Busby started the first mill in
this city In the early 7es, at the junction
of Seneca street and Railroad avenue. In
1850 IL was being run by Jones & Me-
Combes. but in few years II stopped.
probably for the reason that transporta-
ton facilities by rail were then too limited
TO allow scope for the enterprise. After
the fire Austin & Sanders started flour
ing min at Ravenna. and were Joined
there by Archibald Il. Graham. He came
from Parkershurg, w. Va, where he had
been in charge Of a large mill called the
Novelty. In a year he bought out the
Ravenna mill and erected the present
Novelty mill at West Seattle. in conjunc-
tion with George F. Folsom and Others.
This has a capacity OF 500 barrels day
and runs full time.
One advantage the mills of this state
have over those OF Dakota and Minnesota
is that their wheat is hard or spring
wheat while the product OF this state Il
soft or winter wheat. The latter ripens
earlier and gives the miller an advantage
in reaching the market early with his
product.
The Cereal min.
A new mill was started last March on
Railroad avenue between Main and jack
son streets by the Seattle Cereal Company.
Messrs. Vail & Hubbell. the principal pro-
prietors. were before that running a feed
mill. and this new mill Is doing a large
business just now in oatmeal. II has O.
capacity of fifty barrels a day.
Lilly. Bogardus & Co. started two or
three years ago feed mill of twenty tons
a day capacity, and their City mills.
which have been established six years.
have capacity OF thirty tons day. This
turns out wheat flour, rye flour and corn
meal, in addition TO the feed business.

Catching a wild deer by the tail is

the tail one day and remained a sort OF
tail attachment over windfall and
slough and stump for considerable dis

The man was out in the forest on his
big farm looking for wildcats with an
especial eagerness on account OF the
bounty Of Sc a cat offered by the author
tiles. As be was wading up the creek
with.a pair of old shoes protecting his
feet from the rocky bottom he cspied a
fawn.at a lick. While he was looking at
the little spotted beaury it lay down be-
side log, and the hunter resolved toGet
the little animal alive. He knew that if
he could get hold of one or 10th Of the
fawn's hind legs he would succeed.
Luckily the cows OF Tie larrl appear
ed at that moment on the way TO the
creek for drink, and tie fawn, evil
IDENTITY frequenter CT ne pasture, seem
led to be unconcerncd after a quick
,Rlance at the COWS. Selling the oppor-
;tunity, the hunter, while the cows were
coming and cracking branches and
sticks, stole up to the log. A moment
later the fawn passed directly i'll front
tof him, and the hunter made quick
thrust Of his arms to catch the deer by
the hind legs He partly succeeded, but
lin the struggle that followed, with the
staring cows and yearlings as speotn-
tors, the delicate limbs of the fawn be-
gan to slip out of the wise Of the human
hands, and somehow or other in despera-
ton the man grabbed the fawn's tail.
The little animal began to run, and
the hunter, who is very strong man,
held desperately to the tail. Down an
old logging road they went a little way,
and then the fawn turned in. 1t could
not run very fast with man attached
to its tail, but the first quarter of mile
was done in good time nevertheless.
About the beginning Of the second the
fawn went over a log and headed for a
thicket. In spite of all, the little beauty
reached the brush and plunged in. The
hunter was scraped OF, and he had the
pleasure OF seeing the fawn join its
mother on the other side Of the thicket
and dart off with her into the depths of
the forest. -Milwau&ee Sentinel.
