Calkins and Oliver I. Morton addressed the Re-
publieans Of this city and vicinity tonight The
distinguished speakers arrived on the mail-boat
from Cincinnati, and were met at the landing by
a committee from the Lincoln League, who es-
corted them to the Central Hotel. In the even
ing the crowds began to pour in from all quar-
ters, and tho principal street was one dense
mass of people when the Harrison and Morton
Escort Guards marched out Of their club-rooms
in their bright new uniforms to meet and escort
the speakers TO the stand on Maple street When
they reached that point several thousand people
were already assembled, and nearly as many
were turned away, being unable to get within
hearing distance OF the speakers. Major Calkins
made tho opening speech. He was suffering
from hoarseness, and could be heard only by
those who filed the seats surrounding the
stand. His discussion Of the tariff was SO plain
that frse-trads baby could not fail TO under
stand that protection to American industries
and protection to the American wage-earner
never come through the free-trade channel. Mr..
Morton was at his best, and made o brilliant
speech, which was received with bursts of ap-
pause that frequently interrupted the speaker.
Like Major Calkins, he is no amateur when is
comes to talking tariff. Most Of the leading
Democrats of the city were OUT to hear the
speeches. Major Calkins and Mr.. Morton
speak at Corydon tomorrow night.

wild Dogs of the Mountains

The wild dogs which infest the mountains
of the upper Wind river are not the common
wolf of the western prairies and mountains.
They are something far more powerful and
dangerous Several years since male
Scotch staghound and female English bull
dog ran away in company from Fort Washa-
kie, made their home in the mountains, and
these wild dogs of the upper Wind river are
their savage offspring. With such ancestor

u canine terrors
The latest exploits of those canine maraud-
ers of which we have any account is the
destruction Of a small herd OF bears. 1t APP
pears that some time ago about dozen bears
Of the dreaded and large silver tip variety
came down from the surrounding mountains
to enjoy themselves on the sunny slopes of
the Warm Spring basin. In the course of
the day those bears all got together, and
while thus massed were attacked by about
100 of the wild dogs.
The conflict was terrible. Tho bears
fought with all the courage and fcrocity for
which the silver tip is noted, but the mingled
strain of staghound and bulldog supplied a
courage and ferocity greater still. aud at the
end OF half an hour every bear had died
where he was brought to bay.
The dogs suffered severely, TWENTY-FIVE of
their number pershing in the fight. The
survivors wasted little time, however, in
mourning over their dead companions, but
began at once on the banquet their own pow
ers had provided, and in an hour from the
time the combat ceased only the clean picked
bones of the twelve bears remained TO tell of
the struggle to death which had taken place,
and the savage feast which had followed.

CHICAGO, Jan. 24-Seventy- boys

himself up from the snowdrift in which he
had alighted. Adolph Gogir, encouraged by
Connor's reassuring remark, also leaped, but
when he struck the ground he was unable to
rise, as the fall had sprained his ankle and
bruised him badly. As he was lying upon
the ground he heard whining sound in the
air and James O'Nell landed by his side with
u broken wrist.
John Noonan and Thomas Wes;field, who
were at work in the room with the boys,
finally averted the panic, ami stood ct the
head of the stairs until the last of the lads
had descended. BY this time, however. a
wall of fire blaz,d between them and safety.
With frantic rush they hurried through
the flames, and fell senseless after they
reached the street. Darts of flame shot out
from the lower windows, and the two men
would have undoubtedly been burned
to death had it not been for the bravery of
John Brownson, who rushed through the
flame and dragged them to place of
safety.
The origin of the blaze is unknown. The
loss is about $jO, 900, and fully insured.
