guests at the Seven Springs Hotel
they ran the bear for several hours
The ladies also Joined in and followed
the hounds to bay.
Twenty dogs trailed bruin, who
when cornered, raised on his hind legs
backed up against a tree, and when
the hunters came up, was slapping the
dogs oyer as fast as they came up.
Five dogs lay stretched before him

Seasouable Advice.

Selected.
AS soon as the land is fit to work 1t
should be stirred between the rows of
fall planted crops to encourage growth
and when growth has started it should
be encouraged with a dressing of nj
trite of soda. Land intended to be
cropped should be worked into g deep
fine bed as soon as dry enough, but do
not attempt to work when wet. All
compost and barnyard manure should
be spread broadcast on the land and be
worked in with the cultivatcr. IT good
crops are to be made there must be no
stlnting of the quantity of manure ap-
piled. Twenty tons to the acre may be
put on without fear of spelling vegeta-
BILE crops. If there is not a sufficiency
of barnyard manure supplement i.
with high-grade fertilizer made up OF
800 pounds of acid phosphate, 200
pounds of cotton-seed meal, so pounds
OF muriate of potash and 100 pounds
of nitrate of soda. If no manure is ap.
piled double the quantity of the fertlli-
zer. l4st this be applied now and all
be worked into the land and then lay
off the land in long straight rows so
that the crops can be readily worked
with horse power.

Fought in a Canoe.

Williamson Enterprise.
Sunday morning about 9 o'clock
Cliff Bland, an old fisherman, was shot
three times in the mouth by a young
negro, Will SmaJlwood.
Bland went ..early Sunday morning
to catch the fellow whom he suspicion
ed was stealing his fish out OF his nets
in the creek. He went in pursuit CT
him from the wharf, but could not
catch him, so he got out, pointed his
gun at the negro-after he saw him
fishing with his nets and saw the water
dripping from them-and arrestad
him. He made the negro row up to
him and take him to his canoe, which
he had lett down the river. When
they were about to change from one
canoe to the other, the negro catching
the eye Of Bland, ran up to him before
he could do anything, and shot him
three times in the mouth. They had q
scuffle in the canoe and creek, and the
negro shot him two more times. Bland
crawled on the canoe, for he was al
most exhausted. The negro hit him
on the head with the paddle and went
to hunt pole to kill him with. When
he came back Bland pretended he was
calling some friends to his assistance,
and the negro ran away from fright.
The pistol bal! was extracted from
Bland's neck Thursday evening.
The negro is in Jail suffering from a
lick inflicted on his head.

LATER DEVELOPMENTS

Salisbury, N. c.. Aug. 12-It ie
learned tonight that the fl ,odlng OF
the Dsrrlnger mine, near Gold Hill,
Rowan county, N. g., in which eight
lives were lost, was caused by terrific
waterspout of immense proportions,
such as has not been witnessed in the
State for years. The bodies OF the VIC
Tins who met instant death are still
buried more than two hundred feet un-
der mud and water, and it is believed
that they cannot be taken out for three
months Or more, as it will require that
much time to pump the water out of
the mines.
It is estimated that the damage to
property will reach many thousands of
dollars. No blame is attached to The
Whitney Reduction Co., owners of the
mine, on account of the disaster.

Sugar Factory for Las Animas.

Tne people of Las Animas took
a notion that they might as well
have sugar factory there as TO
ship their b5ets TO Rocky Ford.
They had the farmers, the land and
the water necessary TO grow the
beets. And the experience of the
past four years has taught them
that the beets can be grown. The
only thing they had to do was to
find capitalists who were not
afraid to put their money into a
safe enterprise. They were told
that money in the east was tight,
that it was absolutely impossible
TO get capitalists to invest in new
enterprises no matter how alluring
the profits, and that the times
We're decidedly too pauicky to talk
about building a sugar factory,
But it happened that the people
of Las Anlmas were not born yes
terday, and some of them have
had a little experience in financial
affairs. They therefore heard the
advice but needed it not, aud went
out to look for sugar factory.
They did not ,have to hunt long
till the right parties were found
and the rest OF the story Is short.
In very short time satisfactory
contract was arranged between the
beet growers and the factory build
ers and the factory will BE- in run
n1ng order when the beet harvest
begins this year.
The company pays a fiat rate of
s5 per ton for beets, furnishes
seed to tae grower at small cost
and advances $50 per acre for ex-
penses when desired.
The farmers and business men
of Las Animas have a good propo-
sition and they have shown
spirit of enterprise that is truly
commendable in hustiing out and
getting factory for themselves.

1t Pays to Hang On"

1t pays to hang on like & puppy
to a root and bluff down all the
little obstacles of life. Ten wears
ago farmer, thirty-three years of
age, took load of hogs to town
and sold them for S95 45. With
this money he paid the collector
of taxes on the farm he was try
ing to own, paid the grocer bill
long due, called at the bank and
paid for an extension on half q
dozen notes, paid an attorney thir-
ty dollars on mower note sent
on for collection aud went home
with two and half dollars in his
pocket. That night the grocer
paid his clerk and delivery boy
and the Inter hied himself to the
skating rink and the clerk t5 his
best girl. Together they attend
ed social ball where they met
the bank cashier. The tax collec
tor went home and enjoyed a
choice Havana at his own tireside.
while the farmer and his wife
spent the evening poring over
sheet OF figures trying to calculate

road men in Chicago recently con-
cerning an invention by which it
is claimed head on AID rear end
collisions can be prevented by
wireless Telegraph y.sn Briefly de-

approaches OH the same track
within a mile Exchange.
Now if they can devise some way
by which the engineer can tell
when there is a washout ahead, or

or when hi2hwaymen hayc OBJ
structed the track, or when a
brake beam is going to drop; then
it may be considered pretty sale
