From the Tyndall Register.

Mix county Wednesday where he
purchased 100 head of cattle to fat

scarce and high and that if these

of a necessity. Dry weather and
short pastures are the cause for the
increase in the price of cattle.

ANECOOTE OF THEO-
OORE NJ. VAIL.

The recent election of Theodore n.
Vail as president Of the Western
Union Telegraph company, was but an
incident In one of the most active and
successful American careers. In an
other sense, 1t was a natural sequence
in the progressive order of events.
Mr.. Wallis cousin, Alfred Vail. was
co.worker with Morse, and won
fortune as his share in the famous
patent. While he was experimenting
at Morristown, n j.. the lad Theodore
was making toy lines of his own and
learning the alphabet and how to send
messages When he went west TO
make his fortune he entered the reSu-
lar service. but presently found him
self in Washington at the head ol
the railway mail service.
There he was found by Gardinon G.
Hubbard at the psychological moment
In the development of the telephone.
The pTacticability OF the new device
had been fairly well demonstrated,
but the promoters lacked money and
creative and executive capacity.
Where to find these essentials was
their puzzle. "One morning" says
Casson in his History of the Tele-
phone" the indefatlgable Hubbard
solved the. problem" Watson" lie
said, there's a young man in Wash
inGton who can handle this situation.
and l want you TO run down and see
what you think of him" Watson
went, reported favorably and In
day or SO the Young man received
letter from Hubbard. offering him the
position of general manager, at a
salary of $500 n year I'VE rely"
Hubbard said. upon your executive
ability, Your fidelity. and unremlttlng
zeal The young man replied, in one

ual in the nineteenth than in the

and ] have confidence that we shall
establish the harmony and co-opera.

an enterprise OF this kind" One week
later the young man. Theodore n
Vail, took his seat as general man

THE CARIBOU oUTNUMsER THE
GREAT BUFFALO HERDS OF
THE WESTERN PLAINS.

Warburton Pike, who saw them at
Mackay Lake, October 90. 1889. says
Il cannot believe that the herds (of
buffalo) on the prairie ever surpassed
in size la Foule tthe throng) of the
caribou. La Foule had really come.
and during its passage of six days,

1000 600 caribou travelling southward:
he calls this merely the advance
guard Of the great herd. Colonel
Jones (Buitalo Jones) who saw the
herd In October at Clinton Golden, has
given me personally a description that
furnishes the basis for an interesting
calculation OF their numbers.
He stood on hill In the middle of
the passing throng. with a clear view
ten miles each way. and it was one ar

they would spread he did not know.
Sometimes they were punched so that
a hundred were on n space one hun

would DC open spaces equally large.

JUSTICE TO BRAVE SOLDIER
AGAIN DENIED.

Two important announcements
came out OF the war department at
Washington this week. One was a
"confidentlal' report 10 congress.
stating among other things that the
army needs to be reorganiZed. The
other was an official bulletin announ-
cling that still another army officer
is 10 be prounDted over the deserving
but neglected head of Brigader Gen
e:al Frederick Funston
The war department may rest its
whole case as to the need of reorgan-
izatlon on its own act of unfairness
and unjust discrimination against
General Funston No other proof is
needed that something is radically
wrong and that there ought to be a
general overhauling from cellar 10
garret
The appointment of Funston 10 the
regular establishment was forced.
first by the distinguished and daring
record Of the man himself. and then
by the combined and unanimous senti-
ment of the people of the west, He
rose by the things that were under
his feet. by sheer grit and determina-
ton, by doing the duties that lay
nearest TO his hand and doing them
well
But he had been n civilian and then
a volunteer, two objectionable Of
fenses IN the~eyes of the little coterie
that recommends promotions and
censors dance lists at Washington.
The slight that Is placed upon him
betrays again the outcropping of the
ancient jealousy that has ever been
harbored in the breast Of the West

from the ranks.
