trophy. Its plumage does not include

John Anderson, of Hanesville, Penn,

kittens, now two weeks old. The hen
had been clucking fruitlessly on nest
which Andersen afterward covered with
a board to prevent her further efforts to

young mewing family as her own.

Wolf Vengeance.

During one of my hunting and fishing
excursions IN Louisiana was fishing on
a lake two or three miles long and from
one-quarter to one-half mile wide. On
'nc side the hill land came down near
tDe IKE, leaving about one. quarter mile
of sMd beach, and while there l saw a
deer running at the top of its speed
toward the lake, and moment later a
wolf appeared in hot pursuit. Expect
ing them to plunge into the lake, when
| could overtake and kill them both in
the water, kept my place. Just before
the deer reached the water it was caught
by the wolf, which pulled it down and
killed 1t. Then the wolf stalked around,
looked about, trotted off some distance
and set up howl, went further and
again howled and then into the woods,
when heard more bowling.
The wolf being out of sight, 1 rowel
my boat to the place and got the deer
and then went -. a. my fish hooks.
Shortly there appea the scene a
pack of ten or twelve wolves. They
shifted and moved all around where the
deer had been killed. These movements
occupied considerable time. They
would huddle together, change about
and trot about in all directions, keeping
close together. Finally they got into a
fight; the whole pack attacked Ole wolf
and killed it. 1t was literally bit and
chewed to pieces. Now, what was the
wolf killed for2 The probability is, and
am almost positive, that the dead wolf
was the one that killed the deer.
have talked to many hunters upon this
subject, and have come across but two
who had seen anything similar, and they
thought the wolf had been killed for
lying. If it was done in the case saw
for lying it was the only time l ever
knew wolf to be killed wrongfully. -.

No stronger evidence of the safety of
electric lighting installations can be
afforded than the fact that great many
explosives factories are now being lit by
electricity. 1t is obvious that a build
ing wherein the preparation of inasm-
mable or highly explosive substances is
carried on very special care should be
taken in order to avoid even the small.
est risk, and powder manufacturers now
find that the electric light adds a con-
siderable percentage over gas to the
chaDces of safe operation. While cleo.
tricity increases the safety Of this branch
OF industry in one way it lessons it in
another. There is great deal of free
electricity thrown off in various stages
OF manufacture, and the disposition of
this, so far as it can be removed out Of
harms way, is serious question. The
charge of a powder cake press with
ebonite plates may practically be con.
sidered as an electric pile, and large
amount of friction or electric influence
from outside may cause a sufficient cleo
tric charge to give off sparks. Several
undisputed cases of this kind have been
known. Another source of danger from
Friction occurs during the glazing,
rounding and sieving off gunpowder.
Lfhe powder is subjected to a constant
rubbing of its PARTICLES against each
other, and during the glazing especially
there is danger of electricity accumula-
ting. Therefore precautions should ba
taken in brder to convey away any
cha tha4may accumulate in the glaz,
ins rels.

Mr.. Armour and His Clerk.

Philip d. Armour, the millionaire pork

every year TO make the clerks in hi.
office the present of good business suit
of clothes. There is an unwrirten law
that this suit shall not exceed in cost
forty dollars, for which sum, it is rightly
considered, Il very handsome everyday
outfit can be purchased. But one new
clerk, upon being told to go to tailor,
make his selection and have the bill sent
TO Mr.. Armour, determined not to be
hampercd by any forty dollar limit. He
accordingly ordered suit costing
eighty-fve dollars, In due time the bill
was presented to Mr.. Armour. He
called for the young man who had con.
tracted it, ard that worthy appeared, q
confident smile oVerspreading his face.
He had no thought Of impending
danger.
"You're Mr.. So aud sol" inquired Mr..
Armour, with great apparent atIability.
''Yes, sir"
"You had the suit made1"
"Yes, sir"
"Fits you well, ehl" very blaudly.
Exceedingly well, sir, " replied the
clerk, rather surprised by this line of
questioning.
"Well, said Mr. Armour slowly, in
that stern, crushing manner of his, 'I've
seen a great many hogs IN my day, but
you are the biggest one l have ever
came across"

White Hair Turning Black,

There is nothing unusual in hair turn.
ing white, but case in which the hair
turned black again after being white was
recently told by gentleman from De.
troit. A lady of that city originally had
black eyes and hair, but in the course of
time, when she had attained the age of
about seventy years, her hair turned pure
white. This was expected, but about a
year ago her hair began darkening, and
is now as black as jet. There is no doubt
about the change, nor was any artificial
means used to produce it, so that the
case is certainly one of the most remark,
able recorded in the annals of medical
history. The lady was not conscious of
any change in diet or in her physical
condition that would justify the curious
phenomenon, so it is absolutely mex
plainable on any known hypothesis st.

Mexico is now in an era of economies,
declares the Boston Transcript, and the
first step will be the reduction of the
army, aud probably there will also be a
reduction in the number of officers now
on the pension rolls. The all-absorbing
topic Is the high price of provisions, due
to drouth, which causes great suffering
among the poor, though no actual cases
of starvation have occurred in the city.
Business continues very dull. The GUS
toms receipts have fallen off consider
ably, as merchants are not importing

One OF the most familiar objects in
Wall street offices is the stock ticker with
Its endless convolutions of tape. 1t has
long been supposed that this thin tape
was necessary evil, and that the record
of the little type wheels could not be re-
ceived on any other medium; bat Amer
lean ingenuity, announ ses the New York
Post, has, as usual, grapped with the
problem, seeing that there would be a
good market for machine capable of
delivering the message upon a sheet of
paper rather than upon the Objectionable
band, which is difficult to read, liable
to kink, ready to snap in several pieces
under the slightest strain, and not an
easy thing to file. In Europe, dispatches
received by printing telegraph are torn
into short lengths aud pastel clumsily
on ordinary delivery blanks, but the
labor aud delay caused by such an op.
Grafton offset the advantages OF legibility
and speed in sending. In a machine
recently brought out in this country, the
idea of securing typewriter page, by
telegraph, appears to have been carried
to practical perfection. The message is
received in the form of printed page,
eight inches wide, by an instrument that
is automatic in Its action and is under
the control of the operator at the dis
patching end. The practice involved
may be said to correspond to that of the
everyday typewriting machine. A
speed of over forty words a minute on a
200.mile circuit is said to have been
reached.

How De MOres Bought Cattle.

"The way the Marquis de Mores was
skinned, buncoed and generally done up
out in Dakota was pretty tough" said
A. L. Dowler to a Chicago Times repor.
ter.
81 have Just returned from Medora.
Montana, where the Marquis lived, con
tinued Mr.. Dowler, "and l guess the
Frenchman doesn't owe the Medora peo.
pie anything.
"He ran bank there, and the cashier,
bookkeepers, discount clerks, paying
teller, and in fact the entire staff OF the
establishment consisted of De Moress
English valet aud big Newfoundland
dog. When this valet was not engaged
in his menial duties he attended to the
financial affairs Of the bank.
"While Curran was there the MARQUIS
bought 10, 900 head of cattle from two
Englishmen. They were first .class cattle
and cost $40 head. When these two
Britons delivered the cows they worked
one of the neatest skin games that I've
ever heard of. Medora, you know, sits
in valley, with table lands on each side.
Well, the Englishmen ran 5000 head of
cattle in on the Marquis and collected for
1O,O00i The way they did it was by
running the same 5000 twice around the
hill. De Mores never tumbled until he had
paid his $490, 900 aud the merry cockneys
were bound for South America. 1t was
clear steal of $1,000 but the Mar
quis didn't make much bones about it.
He had plenty of money and didn't
care.
"He was the game of everybody in
that section of the country. He paid
four prices for everything and was theoret-
ically, if not literally, held up upon
every occasion y
