Mr.. *. Paulson, an old timer OF
Pierre, but now residing az Elk Point,
Is renewing his acquaintances with our
townspeople. He tellsof an experience
In freighting In the year 1866. He
had the responsibility of delivering an
order of -four from Sioux City to Fort
Pierre, when the times were much
different than now. The cOuntry was
full OF Indians and he travelled under
great difficulties. AT the end of six
weeks his work was 'finished and he
was paid six hundred dollars for the
job. This really made 1t an average OF
ten dollars for sack. People may
think freight charges high now, but
times have certainly been much worse,
and Mr.. Paulson can probably tell
many other things which will prove
the wonderful growth OF our country

CITY COURT BUSINESS.
Pretty Slow for the Past Four Days
 Not an Arrest Made.

The annual wave of morality ap
 pears to have arrived in town, for to
 day again, making the fourth this week, there was no business for the city court. About this time every year one or two things seem to happen
 Either the police take rest or those who make business for the city n--rrt swear off making trouble. Not an ar. rest. even what the police call "a plain drunk" has been made during the past four or five days and nights. But this is no indication that the city is growing morally better, and anyone who links it is, Is liable to find him. self greatly in error in day or two
 for this wave of morality does not last long usually. Two years ago :. it ran for almost two weeks. This was the longest period it was ever known to have run. though the year before for three consecutive weeks the business of the city court was extraordinarily light. No explanation for this annual state of affairs has ever been given tat was endorsed by any official of t , court. It has been said that to- ward the latter part of February the factories resume full swing and there by take number of men off the streets and out of the way of temptation. But this does not explain why the city court does big business about the mid dle of Lent when it ought to be sup posed that everyone is on his mettle.

DEBRIS FATE DISCUSSED.
Formation of Posse to Exterminate
 the Wild Doss.

The deer in the possession of Albert Hart of Plainyille, which was saved by James Hurley and Charles Sames from an onslaught by the wild dogs on Rattlesnake mountain, will receive di- rect attention to-day from the con- missioners Of fish and game. It is be- iieved that steps will be taken for the organization of posse to go into the mountains and kill the dogs which have caused much damage and worry to farmers in the last few months.
 John M. Foote, game and fish war den of Hartford county, had confer ence yesterday regarding the deer with E. Hart Geer and George T. Mathew son, members of the fish and game commission. Mir Foote was directed to go to Plainville and see the deer and to arrange for it's disposal. The commissioners directed MT Foote to kill the deer if he believes it will not get well. otherwise to arrange for its care until spring, when under more favorable weather conditions it will be released.
 MT Foote will go to Plainville to- day. He said yesterday that the wild dogs in the mountain should be killed. He said they were destroying muc' of the game in the locality. In weather such as we have now, Mir FOote said, dogs like these kill cartridges and rab- bits and commit other depredations. Mir Foote said that he would see Se- lectman Prior while in Plainville to- day, relative to the organization of posse to go out and kill tAe dogs.
 Several rife shots in Hartford and elsewhere have expressed desiro to go out with a posse to hunt the dogs.
 Louis o. Galpfn of New Britain. who has charge of the animals at White Oak park, called on Game Warden Foote yesterday and offered to take the deer to the park and keep it with the deer in captivity there until spring. or such time as the commissioners Of fish and game want 1t released.
