MOiSiiY IN WOLVES.
M:mc?ota Man Mskts a Good Tiling by
Selling Their Sea'p?.
When a State or nation offers a
bounty for the production of anything,
it should not cause surprise that enterprising
citizens'are to be found who
will do their best to earn the bonus
and to earn all of it they can. It
makes no difference wlmther the gift
is for I he production of beet sugar or
the presentation of wolf scalps, so
gicat is the range of human activity
that ample response will be tuade to
citbi i* So ?o onp noo<i fp^i the tingle
of surprise that, in the matter of
wolves, there should he patriotic persons
who should engage i:i the busiress
of supplyinjr the State and counties
with not only the scalps, but. as
now required, the carcasses o? these
patrons of the gentle sheep. Nor need
the entire absence of the carcasses of
mature female wolves from the bounty
claims, In spite cf the bonus of $13 for
such, be matter of remark, for what
thrifty husbandman would think of
killing the goose that lays the golden
eggs for him? Why slaughter the dam
which brings forth litters of cubs for
which the State pays $3. Would that
not be flying directly in the face of a
providential State?
State Auditor Dunn evidently thinks
this State-fostered industry should be
discouraged. He finds that there are
farmers who are farming in the State,
who raise wolves to supply the demand.
and he is going to stop it by
withholding the State's one-third of
the bounty. lie apparently harbors the
notion that the bounty Is given
to accelerate the extermination of
wolves, but if so he reads into the law
what Is not found in its letter. Each
provision of the statute is as capable
of the wolf farmer's interpretation as
it is of his, and. besides, the farmer
has the strong inducements of $13 for
female and $3 for male wolf carcasses
to put upon the law his construction.
Candidly, is net this farming of
wolves but another illustration of the
vice of bountv-sivinc? Soberly, can
not the protection of their flocks be
ns well left to the owners' senses of
self-protection as they are in the case
of, say, dogs: Had the next Legislature
not better repeal the wolf bounty
law entirely and remove this temptation
to defraud the treasuries? Has
the law, if it ever had any usefulness,
not outlived it??St. Paul Dispatch.

Mother of Murdered Child Talks.
No Inquest Could Be Meld ^
Over Porter's Ashes.
A special from Denver, Col., says:
It is unlikely that an inquest will be
held over the remains of Preston Por- f
ter, Jr., the self-confessed murderer of
Louise Frost, who was burned at the
stake by a mob at Lake station. In fact, c
the coroner can liud no remains upon
which to hold an inquest.
A few men remained late in the
night at the spot out on the prairie,
where the murder was committed and
aveuged, and renewed the fire again
nud ngaiu, until every vestigo of the ii
negro was consumed. The iron rail (](
to which Porter was bound will be left ^
standing.
About seven hundred people wit- 1
\v
nessed the lynching. No women were
A1
there, but many of them went to the '
scene before the tire was lighted and P
remained while the negro was led v]
from cairiage to carriage for inspec- 11
tiou. Their vote was a unit for burnin.;.
No measures have been considered
It
w.'th a view of prosecuting any members
of the mob that burned Porter, c
and it is unlikely that any will be
taken. Governor Thomas refuses to c
express an opinion in regard to the
affair. District Attorney McAllister,
of the judicial district in which Lincoin
county is a part, said that proseeu'.ion
of the leaders would be utterly
futile, owing to public sentiment.
"Well, 110 other parents will suffer P
from that brute's crimes." 11
These were the words of Mrs. Frost *
when asked for an expression on the Cl
pniiishinont of the negro who confess- P
ecT that lie Vas the murderer of her
child. "Of course, I was not consult- 0
(das to the punishment to be meted p1
ou% ami I did not know what fate 11
jawaircd him." ^
The murdered child's father, Robert "
W. Frost, returned to Denver Satur- '
day from the scence of the lynching. 1
"A great load has been lifted off of
us," said be, "and as for me, I don't ?>
care who condoms me for starting the
blaze. No other father will have to r3
do what I did on account of that nigger,
and, as I said before, if the brute
had been lynched for his first offense :(

Elbert county Ga., was shocked Saturday
afternoon by the nefts of the u
killing of Colonel W. H. Matiax, ii
which occurred at Heardmont, twelve P
miles below Elberton, late in the day, ^
He was killed by his son-in-law, J. 13. a

They met near the depot and soon
afterwards several pistol shots were T
beard aud a duel to tbe death was
fought out by the two men, both being
armed. After the first shots, Col- v

died in a few minutes, shot twice in _
the breast.
Mr. Jones received a wound in the a
forehead and was hit in two places, but
he is not badly hurt. .
The families of both parties are very
prominent. Colonel Mattox represented
the thirteenth senatorial district
in the state senate several years
ago and was a member of the constitu- r].
tioual invention in 1877. He was a
brave officer in the confederate array, 1

BUFFALOES AND A TORNADO.
Aa Immense Herd Fording tbe Missouri Alter
a Qreat Storm.
In the seventies we boarded the
[ steamer Far West at Bismarck for
Fort Benton. The first week of our
Journey being iu Dakota, incidents
would be irrcvelant here, but I will
mention a tornado as we followed Its
track up through eastern Montana as
It came down from Manitoba. The Mis
souri here runs through a wiae piam
with a dense wood a few hundred
yards wide on either side, and we
were in a bend and did not see the
storm's approach till it was upon us.
It was perhaps the middle of the afternoon,
but suddenly grew so dark
we could scarcely see the crew lashings
the boat to the trees on the lee
bank. Three great wire cables were
strained to keep us from following in
the wake of the wrecked pilot house.
Men were seeking their own safetly,
women shedding nervous tears. The
captain's wife and I (she was an old
sailor( sat on the lee deck, she with
fear born of wisdom, I ignorantly
amused at the weaknesses of my fellow
travelers, and really enjoying the
grand panorama. Great black and
white clouds seethed, boiled and rolled
together, torn by the wind and
pierced by trees carried along like
feathers, a perfect hurricane. It woufd
moan and roar like a living thing tortured
into agony, then lull to a sob
like a hurt child going to sleep. We
would think the worst past, Its fury
spent, when the trees would begin to
bend as if in supplication, then all the
furies would seemingly break loose.
The boat would rock and creak and
pull on the cables, beaten as well by
the missiles in the air. To add to the
confusion the colored crew began to
pray and mumble that weird incantation
handed down from generation to
generation, brought over from the
fatherland of ignorance and superstition;
the captain's staff to swear and
give orders that could only be obeyed
by the light of the great sheets of
lightning that seemed to encompass
the whole plain.
It lasted about four hours. The water
around the boat was so full of
dirt it took all next day to clear It
away, refit the pilothouse and get
back in the channel. Before we got
fairly well started the dead and
wounded buffaloes were floating by.
The captain, who had been on the river
for years, said he expected they
were crossing the river when the
storm struck them going from their
winter range on the Yellowstone to
summer pastures in the British possessions;
that they emigrated every
year and we might run into the whole
herd. To our delight, just as we rounded
the great bend into Montana the
river was so full of them we had to
stop the boat. On either side, as far
as the eye could reach, the earth was j
black with the noble animals.
We anchored till perhaps five in the
afternoon, when they stopped to feed
and rest. They cared nothing for the
boat. When they came to the water
they marched in like soldiers, looking
neither to the right nor left. They
made a path perhaps fifty yards wide
as smooth ae a street, and not an animal
went In or came out above or below
they swam across with military
precision. We had read of them tramping
trains of wagons to dust on the old
overlaand route with a grain of allowance,
but we doubted no more. Here
again, we came to heavy timber. The
storm had torn the great giant cottonwoods
up by the roots, some only left
holes in the ground, others lay beaten
in splinters. For miles there was devastation.
The captain said here it
was a veritable cyclone, but had spent
part of its fury before reaching us,
and if we had been three days earlier
we would have been in the midst of

SALT LAKE DYING OUT.
Utah's Best Known Landmark May Soon
Disappear.
The report that Great Salt Lake, the
best known of all the natural features
of Utah. Is steadily and rapidly shrinking,
and that its bed will be dry land
in a few decades if remedial measures
are not taken, will interest the whole
country. Evaporation and the diversion
of the lake's feeders are supposed
to be the chief causes of the
lowering of Its waters. The former
cause, of course, will be difficult, if
not impossible, to counteract, but the
latter one can probably be removed.
Fremont's report of the attractions of
the great basin of Utah and its vicinity.
and his picture of Great Salt Lake
and its surroundings, which he explored
in 1834-44, arrested the attention of
Brigham Young, who was looking for
a new Zion about the time that Fremont's
account of his wanderings was
published. Joseph Smith, the head of
the Mormon Church, was killed in 1844
while in jail In Carthage, 111., and the
Mormons were driven from Nnuvoo,
where they had settled about seven
years earlier. As they had previously
been driven from different points in
Missouri and from other States, Young,
the new head of the Mormons, intended
to move with his followers to Mexico,
when Fremont's story of Salt Lake
basin, then Mexican territory, came to
him, and determined his removal
thither.
Of course, Fremont was not the first
white man to see Great Salt Lake, but
he was the first to explore and describe
It. Jim Bridger. the trapper, was the
first American who saw that body of
water and he saw it in 1S24, nearly
twenty years before Fremont arrived
in Its vicinity. Bridger's facilities for
making it known to the country, however,
even if he had any special desire
to make'it known, which he had not,
were far less than Fremont's. When
Fremont's account of the attractions of
the great basin reached the eyes of
Brigham Young it began to make its
impact on American history. The annals
of Utah from the time when Brigham
and his followers, in 1847, looked
down from the Wahstach into the Salt
Lake Valley onward to the entrance
of Utah into the Union in 189G, was the
story of Brigham's Church. The attention
of the officials of the railroads
which pass through that region has
been called to the peril of the disappearance
of Great Salt Lake, ana efforts
will be made to save this landmark
seen by the Spaniard Escalante a
century and a quarter ago and made
known to the world subsequently by
Bridger and Fremont.?St Louis
Globe-Democrat.
His Pointed Remark.
"I frequently hear you say that
money talks," she remarked.
"Yes,, it is an old saying, and a true
one," he replied, "but unfortunately
while money talks all that talks is not
money."
"Why do you say 'unfortunately*?"
she asked.
"Because if that were so," he answered,
"I would be married to a fabulous
fortune."

Pretty faces and graceful forms of young women! Why is it they are so

be anything weakening or wearying about the
