The wild man is coming to the front

pute says that one ten feet high was
recently killed 100 miles north of
Moosehead Lake. He had previously
killed one Of three hunters, and the
other two got re-enforcements and slew
the giant who was covered with long
brown hair. There also comes from
Topeka, Kansas, an account OF the
capture OF wild family, consisting Of
man and woman and two children.
They also had much hair on their
faces and bodies, and the account says
that on the top Of the heads Of the
man and woman were evidences that
they had been scalped. The theory
advanced is that they we're captured

capped and became insane,

Worthy of careful study, as indica-

issue.

served by such a tariff, then il would

present tariff should be maintained,
and, if necessary, enlarged.
