The bird measured live feet trom 1 tip to tip of wings, and will make a tine specimen after it passes through the i hands of our taxidermist, Mr. Beach. The New West is the land of the young man. It is his because he has i come here and occupied it. Young men are to the front in every avocation and business, and more of them are getting to the front every day.

This we present to our readers the advertisement of a new enterprise by Fred Mo-rev. lie has open-d up business with a clean, fresh stock, manufactures his own candies which are a great delicacy, and offers to the public inducements that should command their attention. A reading club has been formed by a number of gentlemen here vith a view to secure for the use of the members of the club about forty of the best periodi- c.il unifications in the country, 'these will he circulated among the members after the manner of a circulating library. There is no question about the sa-lutarj influence of such organizations, and we are well pleased see our citizens giving a share of their time to something beside mere money getting. He who lays up some treasures in the vaults cf memory, will one day rind himself in possession of stocks paying i the highest rate of dividend.

A young man by the name of Jones 1 n-ai-'. ttt umrff i tlllU ill." IJLtl UI'llllU ltLV w.iu the canons about six miles north of town last Tuesday, when they met with a large catamount. Neither of them was armed, but they were accompanied by a dog. And he was a dog as was a dog, for he proceeded at once to attack the catamount in a way that meant death to one of them at the start. The cata- mount was three and a half feet long, and weighed thirty pounds, and fought like a tiger.

The dog was not so large, but be was all grit. The boys gathered I stones and sticks, and while the dog en-! gaged the catamount.they belabored him as best they could with the stones. Finally the younger boy struck a stunning blow on the head, and immediately the older one thrust him in ihe Hank with a sharp stick. This soon brought the conflict to a close. Wednesday the boys brought the animul to town, and he was secured by A.J.

Kinnear. and is now in the hands F. W. Beach, who will stuff and mount him. We highly commend the bravery of the two boys who.

against such heavy odds, can bag such game. Next week the 1 will issue a New Year's number, be just double its usu; The paper will size, containing eight instead of foui pages. It will con- I tain a full history of the county and a ompiete and accurate description other resources and advantages also a letail- review of the business, progress and development of her towns. There will be printed, of which 4,." 00 will aro to our regular subscribers or will be taken by the business and profes- sional men of the county who lrive al- ready made contracts them- Hut I 500 remain to be disposed of, mlcss a i number should called for i before Saturday noon of this wceek to warrant us in ordering by telegraph an additional supply of paper on which to print them. This will be the best adver- tisement our county has ever had.

The papers, taken hy our usiness men in lots of 100 each, will be sent to all purls of the I'nited Mates, and if we have not seriously miscalculated, they will bring to our county a few of the thousands who are already looking with es toward the New Southwest. Parties who have not already ordered pallet's should do so at once, as the supply is likely to be too small for the demand. The price, for single copies or by the hundred, in wrappers for mailing, is invariably cents each. If you want to send a few copies to your friends you should leave orders ot'once. A limited amount, of advertising space still re-mams.

Whoever comes first will obtain it.
