K., Perth Amboy, N. J.— I have been asked whether it is correct, 

 in writing of a vessel, to say under way or under weigh. What do 

 you seigh? Ans. Under-weigh means being in the condition of hav- 

 ing the anchor weighed or a-weigh, i. e., lifted from the bottom 

 preparatory to making sail. Under-way means having headway 

 or being in motion. A vessel may be under-weigh yet not under 

 way. 



Wolves in Wyoming.— Information comes from northern 

 Wyoming that the cattle herd in that section are suffering 

 severely trom the ravages of wolves and coyotes. It will be 

 remembered that at the cow men's convention it was sug- 

 gested by Mr. Heller, of tlie Conrad-Hurlbut company, that 

 the shortage in the calf crop was due as much to tnese pests 

 as to marauding Indians, and he urged a systematic and com- 

 pxilsory poisoning of the brutes by all the outfits in the in- 

 fested country. — Buffalo (Wyo.) Echo.
