On the ranches cowboys are kept ‘riding the fence,’ that is, ridii g up and down a section of barbed wire fence, inspecting it and keep ing it in order. M-ny ranches are twenty, thirty, and fifty miles square, and if a serious break in a fence if found, the cowboy must ride back to the ranch to report. Now if a good telephone could be provided for each section, it would save all that riding. The staples holding the two top wires, to the posts could be removed, in sulators put in their places, and a man would have a complete metal lic telephone circuit around his ranch.” NOTICE OF LOCAL LEGISLA TION.

LORENZO POWEL | I Lorenzo Powell, the slayer of ! Peter Teague, will be carried to Dade coal mines to-day by Capt. Bill Starnes there to seive out a life sentence. The history of the killing of Teague by Powell is familliar to the public, as it was fully chroni cled in the papers at that. time. 1 There is • general sentiment among 'the better people of this city that his sentence is too heavy, and the extenuating circumstances »ur rounding the ease does not justify the life sentence of powell. Lorenzo was employed in th® Rome dej ot tor seven years and bore a good reputation both withhis employes and the public generally. He was an honest, hard working negro, and in the seven years at the depot he never lost more than seven days the entire time. The last three years of his stay there, he was not absent from his post of duty a single day. Powell is a heavy set negro, 31 years of age, and has a pleasant looking face. He was familiarly known as “Fatty,” and very many people never knew him by any other name. Lorenzo was seen in the jail this afternoon by a reporter and talk ed freely about himself. He said: “Yes sir, they are going io take me away tomorrow, and you can I imagine how bad 1 feel at leaving.! I want you to say for me that treatment in the jail has been of the very best. “Mr. McConnell and his son, Raymond, havejbeen exceedingly kind tome, and 1 feel nothing but ( | the deepest gratitude and respect for them Mrs, McConie 1 also b 8 done many nice things for me and a’to thev my i-tay here has b) n :en ered far more pleasant than if I 1 a not been shown these at’ention*.
