ASHLAND, Wis.,, Aug. 27.-Blood-
hounds have been put on the track of
the Gogebic stage robber by Sheriff
Foley, of Gogebic county, and the pur-
suit of the murderer has been renewed
with favorable chances for his capture
before twenty-four hours have elapsed.
A pack of human game hunters were
taken to Gogeblc this afternoon by an
Indian from the Bad River reservation
at Odanah. The hounds are well
trained, and if the highWayman is still
in the woods he will be captured. Man
ager WhitcomD, of the Milwaukee, Lake
Shore d Western railway, has offered a
reward of $500 for the capture of the
robber. Circulars have been sent out
giving a very good description of the
fugitive. Should he be captured ii is
likely that he will be lynched,
SO strong is the feeling against
him. Mr.. Fleischbein, the Boone
vile. ILL.,, merchant, who was
road agent. died in the hospital at Bes-
semier to-day from loss of blood and
internal hemOrrhage. The fact has de-
veloped that the highwaylnan had
eaten breakfast at the. same table on
the day of the robbery with the party
he held up. They were Oh conversant
terms with him and he was the last
man they would have taken for sBlack
Bart's" double. He is described as a
6mooth-talking gentfemaniy appearing
young fellow with good manners and
showing evidence of good-breeding, and
not the bushy-whiskered hardened
looking villain he is imagined to be.
However that may be, it looks as if he
had robbed his last stage coach and
Yifled his last train.

Chicago Journalism.

Chicago journalism, like the city it.
self, is one of the wonders of the times.
The New York newspaper editors and
publishers claim for themselves the
first place among the press of the
United States, but it is not claim that
is acceded to by Chicago journalists.
There is certain dignity which may
perhaps carry influence that only be-
longs to age, a stability that only the
lapse OF years can bring.
Chicago newspapers can have little
OF this. But they have everything else
that the great newspapers of New York
have-capital. editorial talent. repor-
torial enterprise, and competent bust
ness management. and an unelualed
field both for the collection OF news
and the extension of their circulation,
and some Of these qualities in an inten-
sltied and greatly developed degree.
AS newspapers, that is. as gatherers of
the details of the worlds daily history,
and its presentation with fullness and
skill, they have no equals on the CONT
nent.
The enterprise of the Chicago news
papers stops at no expense. staggers at
no difficulties. Its special Telegraph
wires are like the spokes of wheel
reaching especially all important points
of the Northwest. The citizen Of Chi
cago. as he opens his morning paper,
has the satisfaction of knowing that no
important event that has happened any
where IN the known world the day be-
fore has been missed from it's news
columns.
Editorially, the Chicago newspapers
are i'll no respect inferior to the best
published elsewhere in the United
States. There is, it is true, running
through a majority of the articles, an
indescrlbable quality due to the intlu-
eaca of community where, recording
to the local slang, "every thing goes and
goes like thunder, {" a III sposition to carry
point by the use Of the bludgeon III
ste2d OF the more artistic flourish of
the rapier: but like most Western
writers, Chicago editors go to the point
aimed at by very direct lines, and when
ii is reached no reader has any diff.

eleven-twelfths of the human beings
they only killed in every 81 animals,
tigers and leopards doing the greatest
damage. Tigers show %, 769, leopards
22,275, wolves 1926, snakes 1914,
hyenas 1912, and bears 75S. In the
case both Of human beings and animals
the destruction appears to be on the
increase; in the former case the mum.
Der is higher than for any of the pre-.
vious ten years, and in the latter it is
third in ten years in point of numbers
killed. At the same time the numbers
OF wild beasts killed and the rewards
paid for that purpose are increasing
