They persued this something<lb />and finally tracked it to a cave in the<lb />rocks. The cave was filled with leaves,<lb />acrons, walnuts and hichory nuts.

This was especially the case<lb />when we looked at the advertising col-<lb />umns of the RerLecror and saw fully<lb />thirty local business houses represented,<lb />several of them taking a full column of<lb />space, and then looked at the columns<lb />of the Herald with less than half that<lb />number of local houses represented.<lb />And the comparison is the greater, too,<lb />when we recalled the fact that the Re-<lb />FLECTOR is published in a town not<lb />half the size of Salisbury and which<lb />was recently visited by a fire that de-<lb />stroyed nearly half its business houses.�<lb /><lb />The Herald went on further to say<lb />that it was not otalking through its<lb />hat,� as the Rereecror had suggested<lb />but that Salisbury really had more en-<lb />terprises that were mentioned, for some<lb />had been overlooked in making up the<lb />long list that it published. Well, if<lb />that is so, then Salisbury must have<lb />the most unenterprising set of business<lb />men of any town in existence, " How-<lb />ever, it is not Salisbury that we want<lb />to talk about to-day, but of Greenville<lb />~along the line of erapateoy mady by<lb />the Herald.<lb /><lb />Greenville may not yet have become<lb />entirely relieved of all her oold foggy�<lb />ideas, but it can neyer be charged that<lb />her business men are made up of a set<lb />of barnacles.<lb /><lb />Thete ~tay be now and then one of<lb /><lb />that eldss ~found, but as a whole their<lb /><lb />enterprise will not suffer by comparison<lb />witn any town anywhere. The columns<lb />of the ReFLEcToR show this, and tell<lb />that our busness community is composed<lb />of men of energy and enterprise. Tak-<lb />ing our daily and. v-eekly editions to-<lb />gether it will be found that there<lb /><lb />~are not to exceed ten business houses in }.<lb /><lb />the town whichare not advertises, and<lb />even some of them advertise occasion-<lb />ally. (This count does not include<lb />bar rooms, for while some of them<lb />would be advertisers we have scruples<lb />against admitting advertisements of that<lb />class in the RerLector and have never<lb />done so.)<lb /><lb />There is some satisfaction in pub-<lb />lishing a paper ina town where there<lb />are wide-awake, energetic business men,<lb />such as are found in Greenville.<lb />this connection it may not be outT of<lb /><lb />froma New York business man who<lb />takes sach an interest in what goes on<lb />~n Greenville that he keeps a regular<lb />file of the RerLector.

The dogs come from<lb />China, and are that peculiar animal<lb />bana the black mouth and black tongue,<lb /><lb />are a queer animal, and are known<lb />in.Caipa by the name of othe monks.�<lb /><lb />Nobody is prepared to believe, per-<lb />haps, that in this city annually about<lb />450,000 coonskins are cut up and inade<lb />into coats, but it is true, for we have the<lb />word of a prominent fur man who deals<lb />extensively in all kinds of skins, from<lb />the skunk to the seal. In 1893 his firm<lb />cut up 163,000 coonskins alone, and will<lb />keep it up so long as the animals exist.<lb /><lb />There are certain animals that have<lb />survived civilization, as, for instance,<lb /><lb />the skunk, the raccoon and the opos-|<lb /><lb />sum, While the wolf, the bear and ani-<lb />mals of their nature have ~almost en-<lb />tirclyscisappeared,<lb />in Louisville there lives an old fur<lb />buyer by the name of John White, who<lb /><lb />ory circumstance nthe aco<lb />When the insect is<lb /><lb />increase its speed to 160 feet per sec-<lb /><lb />fiight for 4 mile in a straight line it<lb />would cover that distance in exactly 33<lb />seconds.

A swallow is idered<lb />one of the swiftest of flying birds, and<lb />it was thought until recently that no in-<lb />sect could escape it, A naturalist tells<lb />of an exciting chase he saw between a<lb />swallow and a dragon fly, which is the<lb />swiftest of insects. The insect flew<lb />with incredible speed, and wheeled and<lb />dodged with such ease that the swal-<lb />low, despite its utmost efforts, com-<lb />pletely failed to overtake and cantare<lb />it"Golden Days.<lb /><lb />Menu for a ChildrenTs Party.<lb />A very good menu for a child's party<lb />may consist of bouillon, with bread-<lb />sticks and celery, creamed chicken in<lb />little paper cases, served with tiny<lb />homemade biscuits, sandwiches of<lb />tongue and white bread rolled with<lb />celery, and ice cream, with such light<lb />cakes as macaroons and lady fingers.<lb />Lemon or orange jelly in orange shells<lb />may .be served in place of ice cream.<lb />Have for favors the bonbons that con-<lb />tain pretty tissue paper caps and bon-<lb />nets, and a cake containing a ring,<lb />or in its place a little gift for each<lb />child.

W hen)<lb />asked 2 Short time ago by a St. Paul fur<lb /><lb />sun What difference he noticed in the}<lb />business now from the first. time he<lb />went into it, White replied that the<lb /><lb />people are getting more cooens, Opes-<lb />sums and skunks now than ever before,<lb />proving conclusively that these animals<lb />ure not affected by civilization, and go}<lb />uhead multiplying without stint.<lb /><lb />The vast majority of the otter, beaver,<lb />inink and other skins of that ilk are<lb /><lb />-captured in the northwest, throughout<lb /><lb />Manitoba and the northwestern states.<lb />The wombat of Australia was for nany<lb />years a drug on the market, and dealers<lb />found it impossible to dispose of them<lb />antil the coat manufacturers of St.<lb />Paul took them up, They were found<lb />~very excellent for the purpose of coat-<lb />making, and the hunters who had pre-<lb />viously become discouraged and refused<lb />to kill any more found their occnpa-<lb />tion renewed and profitable. In the last<lb />two years the stock has been cleaned<lb />out, the wombat has become searcy and<lb />the prices have advanced proportionate<lb />ly. Everything seems to be declining in<lb />quantity but the raccoon, the skunk<lb />and the Chinese dog or monk, and these<lb />constitute the bulk of furs from which<lb />the eoats are manufactured to-day.<lb /><lb />The buffalo coat at one time was the<lb />most popular of them all, and it was the<lb />prevalence of the buffalo that gave St.<lb />Paul such a start in the indastry of far<lb />coutmeking. At the time the buffalo<lb />were plenty on the western plains fully<lb />90 per cent. of the fur coats manufac-<lb />tured were made of buffalo skins.<lb />was a great industry, not alone for the<lb />Indian, but the white hunter, who<lb />flocked to the buifalo swamps by the<lb />hundreds. The decline of the puifalo<lb /><lb />was so rapid as to almost exeeed belief.<lb /><lb />When the industry first started the<lb />plains fairly swarmed with the animal,<lb />und it was the easicst thing in the world<lb />to kill all that were desired, but in three<lb />years this noble animal was almost en-<lb />tirely extinct. When the Northern Pa-<lb />eifie road was put through to Miles<lb />City, Mont., in 1883, there were 225,000<lb />or 250,000 buffalo hides shipped out of<lb />that town. That was in 1883 alone.<lb />All that number had been killed by<lb />white hunters, while the Indian collec-<lb />tion amounted to 20,000. The Indians,<lb />of course, were not possessed of the im-<lb />proved firearms and other methods of<lb />destroying the restless creatures, and<lb />that accounts for the size of their col-<lb />lection. So that in 1883 the collection,<lb />cal] told, amounted  f abont:279,900 hides<lb />and robes. |:<lb /><lb />In 1884 there were not over 20,000 col-<lb />leeted by the Indians and white hunt-<lb />ers, and in 1885 there were less than<lb />5,000, In 1886 there were none, and now<lb />the only buffalo that exist are the prop-<lb />erty of the government and live under<lb />its protection in the Yellowstone park.<lb />Previous to 1883 all the southern herds<lb />were killed off, then the northern herds<lb />were attacked, and they disappeared,<lb />seemed, in the twinkling of aneye.<lb /><lb />~ Bhd fur thet is fot used extensively<lb />in St. Paul is the seal, although a great<lb />many ladiesT garments, coats, muffs and<lb /><lb />tee § ong remade fromt oat eal<lb />urs. 8 Tange #6 roy. oe seal<lb />that ~ ~captured in Cana \atlTor Ameri-<lb />ean waters must be shipped to London,<lb />Engiand, for dressing and dyeing.
