That the cost of living now is
greater by sixty per cent than il
was in 1900 and fifteen per cent
higher than it was two years ago is
the conclusion reached by experts
of the United States Bureau OF
Labor who have been closely study
ing the question. The ~investlga.
tions covered forty cities in differ
ent sections of the country and
they found that every article OF
food, except sugar, has greatly in
creased in value. For instance
steaks have gone up 1925 per cent;
hams, "a per cent; cornmeal, 57.3
per cent; butter, Ais per cent;
bacon, 1913 per cent; eggs, 4O,S per
cent. Fortunate the farmer who
can produce at home every article
necessary to provide food for him
self and family. Fool the farmer
who because of his own thriftless.
ness must buy these things in the
markets. Exchange.

Wolf Hunt in the PrairieS.

The biggest wolf hunt that was ever
pulled off il the county took place this
week, starting at Mr.. Allie Swann's
place ten miles northeast of Macon.
For some time a wild dog, supposed to
be a half wolf, has been running loose
in that section, and it has kept the ne
groes in deadly terror. By the use OF a
female of the specie it has been cap
tured several times, but until last week
it was never held as it would gnaw its
way out of the trap. Allie Swami man
aged to catch and hold it last week and
he took it to his place. and confined it in
an empty cabin, taking the precaution
to chain 1t. All the hunters and hounds
in the country were on the ground Tues
day morning about three O'Clock, when
a board was knocked off the house and
the wolf-dog sprang out with the agility
and speed of a frightened deer. When
he hit the ground he was in the midst
of thirty-ive hounds Almost in the
twinkling of an eye he had them dis
tanced a hundred yards. After c%ircling
around the plantations in the neighbor-
hood for an hour or so, it went through
Harry Woods and the Cole places and
vas finally lost in the Jim creek swamp
in Lowndes county, 1t is said there
were sixty hunters at the start; there
were six when the chase was given up,

COTTON.

The price of cotton has declined this
week about So. so a bale. This is due,
it is believed, to the fact that cotton
has been rushed to market all ove the
South, just as it has been done in Nox-
ubee. The receipts here have been very
full, for the season, and the same thing
has occurred all over the cotton belt.

then visible in the east a couple of
hours before sunrise and must have
produced strikingly beautiful appear
ance and have been spoken of as one
object That was about fifty days less
than two years before the death Of
Herod. fact which harmonizes we'll
with other conditions of the narrative,
for it is probable that the mandate
for the slaughter Of all the children
two years old and under was issued
some months before his decease, and
the limit Of two years would leave an
ample margin for any uncertainty as
to the time of the appearance of the
star, as related by the magi; also there
were no paschal full moons on a Fri
day between the years B. q. 6 and
A. d. 33 and no other following that
till A. D. 60.
From this it would seem to follow
that Christ was thirty-eight years old
at the time of the crucifxion, and this
would vindicate the sagacity Of the
Jewish doctors who affirmed that he
was not yet fifty forty?, years old. 1t
is remarked too, that in the spring of
the same year there was a triple con-
junction of planets-Saturn. Jupiter
and Mars-and that the first two
named were in conjunction as seen
from the earth no less than three times
In the year preceding-that is. B. c. Z.
Another theory about the star of
Bethlehem which has been advanced
Is that the star seen by the magi Is
Spica, the leading brilliant in the con-
stellation of Virgo. the Virgin. For
many years before and after the
Christian era the star was changing
its place until it was then literally
'star in the east" and its movement
in that direction may have been the
very fact noticed by the wise men of
some centuries preceding who expect
ed that the prophecy about the Virgin
would be fulfilled when its principal
star reached the position noted. II
Bactrfa. in the far east. Is easily ex-
planned. and the chief difficulty attend
ing the explanation lies in the fact
that such an important search as they
undertook Is noticed by only one out
of the four evangelists.
The uncertainty of the centuries In
regard to the date of the Nativity in
year and month may never be cleared
up. Its existence has been unfairly
cited as reason for disbelieving the
whole narration. The people Of 1900
years ago attached little Importance to
dates, except current ones. and 1t may
be remembered that the destruction
of Jerusalem occurred between the
time of the Nativity and the writing of
the gospels. at least in the shape In
which 1t has come down to u.s.
