CATCHING a WOLF.

Dearly.

Eli Eurns Won the Bet, but 1t Cost Him
Dearly.
One cold. windy day party Of live
ly young fellows driving across tho
prairie saw prairie wolf making u
meal from dead horse. Bill Burns
offered to bet ten to five that he could
catch the wolf and toe bet was taken.
Bill directed the driver to get as close
as possible under cover of n low ridge
some 800 yards from the wolf With
the wagon concealed by the ridge and
the wind in his favor. Burns began to
crawl through the knee. high dead
grass. which was nearly the color of
his canvas coat and old felt hat The
horse lay with his back toward Burns,
and as it was frozen the wolf was eat
ing from the inside Of the carcass
going almost his whole length into a
hole eaten in the horses abdomen.
He would go in and snatch n mouth
full or two then quickly back out and
look around. 1t was evident that he
considered eternal vigilance the
price of liberty"
Each time the wolf went In Burns
crawled rapidly toward it. lying hat
in the grass whenever the wolf came
out In half an hour he had got
within few feet OF the wolf and
watching for favorable moment
rose TO his feet jumped over the horse
and caught the wolf by the hind legs
TO the spectators it did not look as
though Burns had more than touched
the wolf. when it was rods away and
went off with such grand burst OF
speed that one Of the boys declared
he could hear it whizz long after it
was out of sight Although Burns
held the wolf but an instant he was
severely bitten on both arms and on
one leg. His opponent claimed the
stakes because Burns did not hold the
wolf. but Burns said he did not agree
TO hold it, but to catch it; that he did
not intend to hold it long enough for
it to bite him. but found he could not
let go quick enough. The bet was
decided in Burns favor Forest and

Ex-Secretary W. c. whitney last night confirmed
the rumOr which prevailed In Wal-St
during the afternoon to the effect that the
Metropolitan Traction Company, Of which Colonel
Daniel : Lamont is the general manager. and eX-
secretary whitney is principal stakeholder aud
director had added the Ninth Avenue surface Railroad
to is other acquisitions. These include the Avenue
c line the Broadway and Scventhave. live, the
Twcntythird st.. the Christopher and feminist" the
Fourtecnth-st, the Chambers and Madison-st. cross
town roads. and more recently the sxth-ave. surface
road. II j. said that soon as it can be done the
cable motive power will be introduced in Ninth ave,
but Mr. Whitney said that details had been arranged
\ telegram from Philadelphia which was exhibited In
Wall street said that the deal for the Nnhavc. road
and that the Metropolitan Traction COM
pauy had secured the property.
Another dispatch from Philadelphia said that a sharp
advance in the stock Of the Metropolitan Traction Com
pany had given rise to a report that the company had
secured control OF the Thiriave. surface line IN TINS
city. The dispatch also said that Messr. Widener ana
Eldns admitted that the Slxth-ave. line had been
leased but that they would say nothing about the
Third ave. and further that Mr. Widener had said he
was coming TO this city Thursday and that perhaps
by that time the report might have some foundation.
Edward Lauterbach, when last night. said :
"The report has absolutely and positively no founda-
ton The managers Of the Third-ave. line well
able to control that line and doing too well to
lease II 10 the Metropolitan Traction Company. AS
regards Mr.. Widener's coming to NewYork on Thurs
day. | do not think his visit will have anything TO do
with the Thirdave line II is fact that the company
has secured control Of the sixtbave. line and will
probably secure the Ninthave. line also. but both
those companies have been on the market for some
time. The Thrdave. company IS not on the market.
Nou may say that the report circulated has not the
ghost OF a shade OF a shadow OF foundation"
