Alarming Scheme Proposed to Rid wyo.
. ming OF Ravenous Beasts.
Wyoming ranchmen for long time
have been trying to devise schemes foI
exterminating the wolves which destroy
thousands of young cattle yearly. Boun-
ties on scalps were found to be too slow.
Emil Stritz has finally arranged 81
plan of incubation that he says will
soon destroy all the wolves in the west.
He has poison which, when introduced
into the blood of wolf, produces by.
drophobia within ten days. He has cap
tured number i'll traps and has expert
mented with them.
He has released number of them,
and wolves showing signs of hydro
phobia have been seen in various places.
The inventor is working to have the
Stockmen's association contract with
him for the determination of all the
wolves in the state.
The only obstacle to the agreement is
the young mans inability to give the
stockmen assurance that the wolves will
not in turn bite the stock and spread
the disease all over the range, with the
most disastrous results. s.-Chicago Rec

wanted to hear what Colonel Rives
had to say Of President Cleveland, with
whom or by whom he goes cunning
down the Potomac. He is very close,
however, ON an official confidentiality.
The subject had been several times tap
ped, but would not run.
On the last occasion the colonel got
as far as to say:
"Mr. Cleveland is a very nice man.
He used to be very free and natural in
his comments, except when tan unknown
party came in; then he would close mp
like terrapin. Lately he has become
very circumspect, having few opinions
to express. I never quote anything he
says. If did, I could relate many droll
remarks. He possesses character of his
own, which is apt to disappoint many
of his followers, who expect him to 60
too far. He will leave the procession
when he does not want to go any far
ther. This is where partisans become
offended They are not willing to let q
president think by himself and want
him to think as they do. Mr.. Cleveland
as sportsman is manly. IL you want
to leave him a duck as they are flying
and do not shoot at it in your turn, he
will refuse to shoot it. At the same time
he is not up to our methods ON the Po-
tomac. He is SO stout that he cannot
stand up long time to shoot. He shoots
pretty well and is very active for man
of his flesh, but we shoot in turn with
out word between us, as the ducks
come-Mr. Waller, the proprietor down
there at Aqua creek, and me, he know
ing his ducks, / mine-crack, crack,

Aboriginal Caves In Kentucky.

Two caves of size to make them i'm

week. One is in the Chaplain river bot

Ellis place, near Milldale. The first con-

is walled with stone that has been
dressed, and the floor is composed OF
solid rock. The work is doubtless that

and he said:
"Why, Mr.. Depew, that can't be 80,

DEATH ON ALL SIDES.
THRILLING ADVENTURE IN A PENN
/ svLvANlA LOGGING CAMP.

Engineer Fenncl Finds Himself Shut Up
In IN Engine Room with IN Overworked
Boiler and Two Big Rattiesnakss = His
Rapid Action saves HIS Lise.
News OF thrilling adventure had by
Patrick l.. Fennel, who recently left his
home, in Montgomery, 30 miles east of
Williamsport, Pa, to work In Susque-
hanna county. has been received Fen
mel, who is an engineer, went up into
the lumber woods Of Susquehanna coun-
ty to run an engine il sawmill. When
he arrived in camp, ne found that the
sawmill had been in disuse about ten
years. Among the machinery left in the
old mill were boiler and stationary
engine. They were in bad shape. but
Fennel got them ready for business.
The other day Fennel fired up to test
the boiler and engine, and then went
away to another part Of the mill. he
was delayed some, and returned to find
the boiler was generating steam with
startling rapidity. He rushed into the
boiler house, the door closing after him
with bang. The door fastened ON the
outside with hasp and drop hook. and
the jar caused the hook to drop into the
staple, making Fennel prisoner. AL
thoughk ested to only 100 pounds, the
steam knge showed that the boiler had
already sSnerated 40 pounds, and the
quivering hand ON the steam gauge was
mounting higher and higher. That the
boiler was liable to explode at any mo-
ment Fennel well knew. He glanced at
the safety valve and was startled to see
that it had become fastened in some
manner and refused to work.
He was about to climb up to loosen
the refractory safety gauge when his
eyes beheld a sight from which he drew
back Around the safety valve, just
where he was about to grasp it with his
hand, was coiled big rattlesnake,
while two other reptiles Of the same
species lay ON the floor of the boiler
house. They had evidently been drawn
from their hiding places in the wall OF
floor of the old boiler house by the
heat. The quivering hand of the steam
gauge told Fennel only too plainly that
the pressure ON the boiler was becOm-
ing terrific. But he could not pass the
serpents and reach the boiler, neither
could he get out Of the door. The only
means of exit was a small window, and
to reach this he would have to pass the
snakes. Near by stood an iron bar used
in clearing ont the fire, and graspins
this he crushed the head Of the serpent
nearest him. The other snake coiled
about his leg and struck viciously, fas.
tening its fangs into his rubber boot. A
blow with the bar crushed the snake OH
the safety gauge, and then came strug-
gle to remove the one around his leg.
Pressing down the bar the snake coiled
around it for a second. leaving two
folds around his leg Quick as fash
he snapped the snake in two, and then,
with the iron bar, knocked off the safe
ty valve. New York Herald.

Something to Know.

1t may be worth something to
know that the very best medicine
for restoring the tired out ner-
vous system to a healthy vigor
is Electric Bitters. This medi-
cine is purely vegetable, acts by
giving tone to the nerve centres
in the stomach, gently stimulates
the Liver and Kidneys, and aids
these organs in throwing off inn
purities in the blood. Electric
Bitters improves the appetite,
aids digestion, and is pronounced
by those who have tried it as the
very best blood purifier and nerve
tonic. Try it. Sold for SOC or
$1OO per bottle at f. G. Alworth

twenty or thirty feet high the
lightning extinguisher will be let

More

Curative power is contained in
Hoods Sarsaparilla than in any
other similar preparation. 1t
costs the proprietor and manu-
facturer more. 1t costs the job
Der more and it is worth more to
the consumer. More skill is re-
quired in its preparation and it
combines more remedial qualities
than any other medicine. Conse-
quently it has a record of more
cures and it's sales are more than
those of any other preparation.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is the best
medicine to buy because it is an
honest medicine and thousands of
testimonials prove that it does
actually and permanently cure
disease.
