Heavy Thefts of Hogs.

CHICAGO, Feb. 26-Last winter hogs were stolen from the stock yards in this city to the value of $1OO,OOO Two men who were ar rested and convicted at the time have just squealed under the influence of the detective pump, which has led to the issuance of war rants for the arrest of a dozen others impi- cated, and several of them were arrested to- day.

This was usually at night. The next day the lot of stolen hogs would be sold without suspicion, as none of the animals were marked or branded This thing continued until hogs valued at $1OO,O 900 had been driven off and sold

An Instance OF Self-COntrOl,

Sir Walter Scott was in the habit of
employing in literary work German
student named Weber. Being an inter-
esting person, he became faVorite with
SCOTS household, and often dined with
them. Sir Walter, knowing that Weber
was inclined to drink too freely, en-
couraged this intimacy, that he might
keep him as much as possible from
temptation. 80
When Sir Walter left Edinburgh at
Christmas, 1918, the two parted kindly,
and on the day after his return. Weber
was with him in the library, as usual,
making extracts. AS the light began
to fail, Scott leaned back in his chair
and was about to ring for candles, when,
seeing the German looking at him with
unusual solemnity, he asked what was
the matter
"Mr. Scott" said Weber, rising,
"you have long insulted ME, and I can
bear it no longer. l have brought a
pair of pistols, and must insist on your
taking one of them instantly" and he
produced the weapons which had been
placed under his chair, and laid one of
them on Scott's paper.
"You are mistaken. I think" said
Scott, lin your way of setting about
this attair-but no matter. 1t can, how
ever, be no part of your object to annoy
Mrs. Scott and the children; therefore,
If you please, we will put the pistols
into the drawer till after dinner, and
then arrange to so out together like
gentlemen.
Weber answered with the same cool
ness: Il believe that will be BETTER"
and laid the second pistol on the table
Scott locked both in his drawer, say
ing. 81 am glad you have felt the
propriety of my suggestion; let me only
request further that nothing may occur
at dinner to give my wife any suspicion
OF what has been passing"
Scott then went to his dressing-room
ana Immediately sent q message to one
OF Weber intimate companions, who
came and took him away. He had
been on long walk through the High
lands, during which he had drank so
heavily rs to unsettle his mind He
became hopeless lunatic, and till his
death was supported ut Scott's expense
in an asylum at York But for tho
great novcliSt's self control, there would
have been a murder in that quiet
library. -YOutRS Conn a1ai0n.
