Archie had two punches of firecrackers and other explo sive inventions in the rear pocket of his brooches. To one of his little playmates they appeared to be in just the proper place to create ex- citement. A match was applied and the desired excitement commenced at once. When the smoke cleared away there was a painfully burnt boy and even his hair was as well singed as if Barber Summey had been operating upon 1t.

Tent Life Cures Consumption.

A doctor in Denver some time ago
made some experiments with consump-
tives. tent colony was established
little way out OF Denver, and the
patients progressed fairly well during
the first part of the winter. But by
and by there was a blizzard. and the
thermometer went down to 90 degrees
below zero. and then they began to
improve very fast. One woman did
not seem to improve at all until the
temperature reached this mark. and
then she improved rapidly. She had
had no appetite. but that 20 degrees
below zero weather gave her an appe-
ute. which was an indication that the
body was beginning to work naturally.
that the assimilative processes were
being resumed. and from that time she
kept on improving.

COYOTES vs.. SAGE CHICKENS.
Dispute As to Which Kills Wyoming
Grasshoppers.

A Cheyenne dispatch says that the
dispute which has been in progress in
Wyoming for several weeks as to
whether sage chickens eat grasshop-
pers, has brought out rather sur
prising statement on the part Of Sid
Winship Of Sundance, Wyoming, as to
the reason for the increase of grass
hoppers in certain sections Of the
state.
Winship says that the killing OF sage
chickens has had nothing to do with
the increase of grasshoppers. but that
the killing OF coyotes has been re-
sponsible for the phenomenon. He
states that coyotes eat an enormous
number OF grasshoppers during the
warm months, and that the placing OF
bounty on coyotes is equivalent to
the placing Of premium on grasshop-
pers. Frequently he has opened the
stomachs of coyotes and found them
filled with thousands Of grasshoppers
which the sly beasts had stalked and
uevoured.
The do Sage Chickens Eat Grass
hoppers" dispute was started by bill
introduced in the Legislature to pro.
tect sage chickens for period OF
years, the author Of the bill maintain
Ing that the killing OF sage chickens In
! some sections had resulted In such
an enormous increase in grasshoppers
that the range was being destroyed.
Sportsmen objected to entirely doing
away with the omen season on chick
ems, and since the bill was introduced
the dispute has extended from one end
of the state to the other, many promi-
nent men going on record one one side
Of the question or the other.
