A GIGANTIC WOLF DRIVE.
Hundred* of Stockmen Hiid Cowboy* Unite
*-• ■*• in Hunting Wolves nnd Cojotes.
Cheyenne, Wyo., Sept. 2. —A hi# wolf
drive by (several hundred stockmen, cow
boys and sportsmen took place in South
ern Wyoming yesterday. The drive re
sulted in the extermination of all the
coyotes and gray wolves in a large dis
trict, and afforded unique sport for the
participants in it. The district swept by
the drive is watered by numerous creeks,
along which are rich stock ranches. The
country is hemmed in for its entire length
by a range of limestone cliffs, known as
(’balk Bluffs, in which are hundreds of
small caves and dens. In these gray
wolves and cohotes hide. During the
present season their numbers have in
creased largely, and the losses of the
stockmen from their constant preying
upon young calves and colts have been
excess've.
At. daylight yesterday, from every
ranch between Cheyenne and the" Xe
braska line, thiity miles distant, stock
men and cowboys took the tieh] against
the wolves. They were reinforced by 200
horsemen from Cheyenne, and had as
spectators a large delegation of business
men and ladies, who drove to the start
ing point. At 7 o'clock the long line of
riders, under command of ten captains,
moved forward. All the known haunts
of the wolves were visited by men and
dogs. Slinking coyotes and defiant
wolves broke from cover and ran for the
protecting caves of Chalk Bluffs. Occa
sionally the hounds turned a wolf to
wards the riders and brought him to
bay. The expert cowboys would throw
th"ir lariats around the wolf and drag
him to death across the prairie. The
drive lasted until noon. At points of
rendezvous in the valley skirted by the
•bluffs were barbecued steers and coffee
for the hunters. The afternoon was de
voted to smoking out the wolf dens and
killing their occupants. Where flames
and smoke failed to drive out the wolves,
charges of dynamite were exploded, tum
bling down portions of the cliffs and
burning the wolves in the ruins. .„ irr _ L _
I>o Cunning Factorlr* F*ay?
A Kansas journalist recently made a
tour of several factories in that State,
and reports wlmt he saw and learned as
follows: At Pleasanton he found that
stockholders said there was nothing in
it, but the business men told him that
the company had been making some
money out of it, and 4jiat it was a help
to the town, both in furnishing employ
ment tor two or three month l3 during the
... Ci. IllOtl atV JL/l
such things as were canned. He also
learned tnat Isaac Sladden, of Fort
Scott, a whoh-sale grocer.vman, had con
tracted for all the goods they could can,
and made a large payment in advance.
They can tomatoes, corn, peas, beans
and apples. They had paid during the
past season 40 cents per 100 pounds for
tomatoes, 00 cents per 100 wounds tor
sweet corn, with husks on, 40 cents per
bushel for peas, pods and all, 40 cents
l>er bushel for string beans and about 25
cents per bushel tor apples. 41 Garnett
the secretary of the canning company in
formed him that it had been their first
year, but they would make a nice little
profit. He found very -nice machinery,
consisting of a large boiler for making
steam, large kettles, and air-tight vats
for cooking and scalding goods to be
canned. During the canning season 200
hands were employed, mostly women,
girls and boys. They paid 18 cents a
bushel for tomatoes 87.50 per ton for
corn, with shucks on, 40 cents a bushel
for peas, and 25 cents a bushel for ap
ples. The citizens thought it was a big
tiling for their town. One farmer had
plant ed 15 acres in tomatoes and secured
the neat sum of .SOOO at 18 cents a
bushel, double what his laud is worth.
The canning company made its own
cans, costing 2\> cents apiece or less. At
Pleasanton £9,000 was invested in ma
chinery and buildings, and at Garnet
SIO,OOO. The cost of machinery for a
factory of ordinary size is about $3,000.
Mow Can They Do It.
Cliabtanoogr, Tenn., there is no doubt,
is the most wonderful city in the South.
She is growing rapidly and spreading in
every direction. In 1870 her population
was (5.000, in 1880 it was 12,000 and to
day it is nearly 60,000 an increase of 48,-
000 in ten years. It is but the natural
result of such prosperity that property in
and around the city should be very~valiT
able. And yet the Chattanooga Weekly
Times is going to distribute, entirely free
among its subscribers; on July 1,1890,
one thousand beautiful building lots, each

“Timesville” is loeateif on the lovely
table laud, on the top of Walden's Ridge,
a part of the Cumberland

and delightful location in the whole sec
tion. The subscription p*ice to the paper
is only $1 a year, and every subscriber

Southwaifl lire star of biuplre Takes Its
Way.
For years the Manufacturers Record
has been preaching that where thecottoi:
is grown there it must be manufactured,
ntid that the South is destined to lie the
cotton manufacturing and iron making
centre of the world. These truths are
being impressed upon the business world,
and the Philadelphia Times, of which
Col. A. K. McClure is theeditor,following
in this line, in its issue of August 26says:
“The place where the cotton is grown
is the place where it must soon,be chiefly
manufactured. With a genial climate
that in itself lessens the cost of labor very
largely; with water-power that never
freezes in most of the cotton regions;
with facilities for reaching markets nearly
or quite equal to Northern mills, and
with the economy of free raw materials
without cost of transportation or the
injury ot severe compression, cotton
should be manufactured iu auy of the
cotton States much cheaper than in the
North.
In these days of swift mutations in
business and trade those ..lio disregard
the absolute laws which govern all
branches of enterprise will be certain to
flounder in bankruptcy, and only the
stone blind fail to see that cotton fabrics
and a large proportion of the iron supply
of the country must ootne from tiie
South. They have natural advantages
for cheapening those products which can
not he longer defied, and. instead of per
sistingiii warring against fate by putting
Northern ingenuity, energy and capital
againt Southern advantages, our inge
nuity, energy and capital must largely
go South, and reap their richest harvests
in the cotton and iron centers of that
region.”
The Times but voices the now almost
universal sentiment of the world. Ten
years ago the Manufacturers' Record
found but few believers m its teachings of
Southern industrial supremacy, but it
never faltered in its work, and today
nearly tine whole business world freely
admits that the South is entering upon
a period of prosperity and development
greater than has ever before been known
upon this continent.
Beautify Your Town.
MilledpevlUe Union anti Recorder.
In a recent article on this subject in the
Savannah Morning News, the writer
makes some excellent suggestions which
every town in Georgia might adopt with
most beneficial results. Our own city
has tna.de decided advance in this direc
tion, but much more might be done at
small cost and great profit.
The News says: The adornment of a
town is a paying investment, in what
ever light it mav be considered. It pars
„ . A. O f X xA*. V . l/ t , v 1
home. It pays in the enhancement of
property. It pays by attractiugcitizens,
visitors and investors.
A per?on in search of temporary or
permanent abode would not be greatly
attracted to the town whose houses have
a dilapidated appearance, whose streets
in rainy weather are a mud puddle, whose
sidewalks are lined at long intervals with
trees, whose premises are made ugly by
falling fences, and whose people roam
about in a listless, half hearted sort of
way.
The News quotes the following inspired
language:
Blessed is the man that steers clear of
the way of the kicker and mingles himself
not in the congregation of the moss back,
but whose delight is in new railroads, brick
blocks and other enteiprises which build
up himself mid his towu. He shall be
likened unto the evergreen tree planted
at the water's edge—his leaf, shall not
wither in the early dawn of autumn, for
the Eli of the boomer shall get there; but
woe be unto the kicker, for he shall be
left to hold the bag and his name shall
be Dennis, *
Good It.
Grange Judd Farmer.
Gould a fair estimate be made of
the loss to any State, by a mud
embargo of a month's duration, the fig
ures would be appalling. Counties and
individuals will tax themselves thousands
of dollars in cash for railroads, but for
public highways will grudgingly work
out a paltry dollar or two yearly, in a
way best calculated to injure the roads
rather than improve them. There is no
class of public improvements more
urgently needed than a good system of
good roads, or which would add more to
the prosperity of a community, or com
fort and happiness of individuals, and
there is no one subject surrounded by
more dense ignorance than this.
The Sewers of Paris
are one of the modern wonders of the
world. That marvelous network of un
derground streams, over which the tour
ist can travel by rail and in boats, con
stitutes the bowels of the gay capital.
This labyrinth of streams is kept with
scrupulous care; for any obstruction in
the flow ot the sewage would be attended
with serious results to the health of the
inhabitants of the city above. The
sewers of the human system are the liver
and bowels, and iu order to keep disease
out of the wonderful city of which they
are a part, they must be kept always
free and unobstructed. Ur. Pierce's Pleas

The Teacher
Who advised her pupils to strengthen
their minds by the use of Ayer’s Sar
saparilla, appreciated the truth that
bodily health is essential to mental
vigor. For persons of delicate and feeble
constitution, whether young or old, this
medicine is remarkably beneficial. Be
sure you get Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.
“ Every spring and fall I take a num
ber of bottles of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, and
am greatly benefited.” Mrs. James H.
Eastman, Stonebam, Mass.
“I have taken Ayer’s Sarsaparilla
with great benefit to uiy general health.”
Miss Tliirza E. Crerar, Palmyra, Md.
“>ly daughter, twelve years of age,
Las suffered for the past year from
General Debility.
A few weeks since, we began to give
her Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. Her health has
greatly improved.” —Mrs. Harriet H.
Battles, South Chelmsford, Mass.
“About a year ago I began using Ayer’s
Sarsaparilla as a remedy for debility
and neuralgia resulting from malarial
exposure in the army. I was in a very
bad condition, but six bottles of the Sar
saparilla, with occasional doses of Ayer’s
Pills, have greatly improved my health.
I am now aide to work, and feel that I
cannot say too much for your excellent
remedies.” —F. A. Piukham, South
Moluncus, Me.
“My daughter, sixteen years old, is
using Ayer’s Sarsaparilla with good ef
fect.”—Rev. S. J. Graham, United
Brethren Church, Buckhamion, AV. Va.
“.I suffered from
Nervous Prostration,
with lame back and headache, and have
been much benefited by the use of Ayer’s
Sarsaparilla. lam now 8i) years of age,
and am satisfied that my present health
and prolonged life are due to the use of
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.” Lucy Moffitt,
liillingly, Conn.
Mrs. Ann 11. Farnsworth, a lady 79
years old. So. Woodstock, Vt., writes :
“After several weeks’ suffering from
nervous prostration, I procured a bottle
of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, and before I
bad taken half of it my usual health
returned.” *
