Apparent Decrease In the Number Of
Wolves and Coyotes.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Sept, 23-(SpecinD
AT the last session of the legislature,
in January, 1901, an appropriation of
$4,000 was authorized as n fund for
bounty on predatory wild animals dur
Ing the ensuing two years from April
/, 1901. To date $24 .063 has ben paid
out, leaving $l5,937 for the remaining
seven months, or until the expiration
of the two years to be covered by this
appropriation.
The Legislature of 1899 appropriated
$4,000, which sum was exhausted In
one year, whereas the S24.O63 expend-
ed out of the present appropriation has
covered a period of one and One-half
years. This indicates that wolves and
coyotes are either decreasing in nnm-
bers, or ranchmen are not hunting
them with the same vigor as hereto
fore.
Reports from the ranges indicate the
former to be the true cause of the fall
ing off in receipts of pelts for bounty.
In some sections, particularly where
sheep have been graZed for several
years and where the winters have been
especially severe, there are few coyotes
and wolves at present. In other sec
tions of the state the pests appear to
be numerous, but not SO much SO rs
formerly.
Ranchmen report that the prairie
pests are migrating to the ranges of
Montana and the British possessions,
and advance as their reason for think
ing so thnt the almost complete exter-
mination of rabbits and other small an
imals in the state has made it neces-
sary for wolves TO seek greener pas
lures, Then, too, the campaign waged
against the pests by ranchmen and pro-
fessional hunters, who usually hunt
out the dens of cubs and destroy the
pups, has had much to do with depict
ing the number of wolves and coyotes
on the plains.

SO excruciating that l could scarcely

FloRfDA's GREAT SPRINGS.

b. NJ Hall, who is also making a

The springs, of which there are n
number in Marion, Columbia,' Polk,
and other counties, are the source of
practically all the rivers of Florida.
Some of them flow off in bold streams;
Others form lakes Of consdera Bile
dimension, large enough in some in,
stances for steamboat navigation.
AT favorable points on the streams
leading from them measurements have
been made by current meter to deter

This money was sent to Cuba as an

Curious Old Custom.

In one Of the suburbs Of Paris a
Eealthy merchant died the other day,
and on the evening Of the funeral his
heighbOrs witnessed curious cere-
mony.
An hour before the body was to be
taken to the cemetery the relatives Of
the dead man, five or six in number,
went out into the garden adjoining the
house and walked solemnly and silent
~ around 1t. Each carried lantern
and kept his eyes fixed on the ground,
as though he were looking for some
thing. Finally they all halted in front
Of large pile Of stones and, laying
aside their lanterns. proceeded to throw
down the pile. After every stone had
been removed they examined infinitely
the spot OH which the pile had rested
and then slowly and with bowed heads
returned to the house.
This is an old Norman custom, and it
Is observed in this instance because the
dead man was native Of Olson. There
is tradition in Normandy that before
burying body all the ground around
his dwelling should be searched in Or
der to make sure that the soul has not
hidden itself somewhere. At one time
every family in Normandy faithfully
observed this tradition. but now only
few pay heed to 1t.
