$50. 900 year for the waste paper col
lected here. From rs to 100 persons are
employed at the plant at the start, and
this number will be more than doubled
as soon as the enterprise is fairly under

been brought from st. Louis, who will
teach others the business. but, aside

The company has a similar factory
which has been in operation in ST. Louis

TO CAN JACK RABBITS.
Samples of the Meat Have Been Sent
to England.

Wichits, Dec. 3O.-Charles Payne,
the wild animal dealer, has shipped a
number of cans of prepared jack rab-
bit meat to England, where it will be
tested and compared with the similar
product which is made liz New Zea-
land and Australia.
The meat was put up in two-pound
cans Dramatically sealed. 1t will
keep an indefinite period of time and
is said to be very palatable. The
meat has large sale in England and
upon the continent Mr. Payne has
thought for some time that the meat
could be prepared in this city at a
profit, and has been preparing to
make trial at least of the project
IF u favorable report is returned of
the meat which Mr. Payne prepared
he viii probably at once let contract
for several hundred thousand cans.
The Dold Packing company, it is
said, has stated its willingness to fill
orders.

1t is asserted that the Pope, after
the recent ceremony of opening the
Holy Door at St. Peters Cathed-
raj, addressed his intimate encourage
and said:
II thank the Divine Providence
for granting me the grace of being
able to celebrate this great function,
and L wish for my successor, grand
eur and a long reign, to the greater
glory of God
My successor will be young, as
compared with my own age, and
will have time to see many glories
of the papacy and the church =
Later Leo clearly designated car
dinal Girolamo Maria Gotti, project
of the congregation of indulgences
and relics, as his successor. Car
dinai Gotti, the famous Genoa
monk, is a man of great piety and
modesty, now about 81 years of
age. He has always lived the life
of an ascetic, and despite the dign-
ity of Prince of the church, he

Congressman Curtis of Kansas has in
troduced a bill authorizing the secretary
of agriculture to establish two branch
stations of his department. one at Topeka
and another at Springfield, Ill. The
object of these stations is stated to be for
the manufacture of such rem edies for hog
cholera and black leg in young cattle as
he may think proper, such remedies to
be furnished to farmers and stock growers
at actual cost. There is said to be a
general demand for such institutions in
Illinois and Kansas, and it is said their

farmers, paitictllarly those who devote
their time to the raising of fine cattle
and hogs.

Speaking Of blackleg and its treat
ment, J. B. Elliott, Of Coin, says in
substance. Biackleg is confined for the
most part to domestic cattle or cattle
in fine condition. It results rather
from constipation. and cattle that
travel far to and from water are
seldom afflicted with it. Dehorning
is good preventive. So is vaccine
The symptoms of Iblackleg resemble
those of foundered horse. and
u quired largely from lack of exercise
Salt is good cure for b1ackleg but
should be put into water tank in
stead of out on the prairie is usual
ly done. A pint of salt should be
placed IN the tank and il this amount
is INSULT Gent to effect cure, more
should be added This is n sure cure,
based on experimental knowledge
One stockman who had been losing
five and six cattle daily from effects
of blackleg tried this remedy with
the result that he has not lost one

It takes 100 years to make CEN
fury. That fact requires neither
argument or proof. At midnight,
Dec. 81, 1899, ninety-nine years of
the present century will have been
completed. This is just one year
short of century At midnight
Dec. 81, 1900, the one hundred yenrs
of the century will have been passed.
Tt will be complete, and the new cen
fury will begin. The question is a
perfectly simple one until the effort
is made to inject something deep
and mysterious into it. Just get
hold of the idea that it takes 100
years to make century and it is
clear sailing.
