THE VENGEANCE OF WOLVES.
A Pack Kills One of Their Number for
Supposed Lying.


Supposed Lying.
During one of my hunting and fish
ing excursions in Louisiana, says
writer in Forest and Stream, was fish
ing on lake two or three miles long
and from one-quarter to one-half mile
wide. On one side the hill land came
down toward the lake, leaving about
one quarter mile of sand beach, and
while there I saw a deer running at the
top OF its speed toward the lake, and
moment later a wolf appeared in hot
pursuit. Expecting them to plunge in
to the lake, when / could overtake and
kill them both IN the water. l kept my
place. Just before the deer reached the
water it was caught by the wolf,
which pulled it down and killed it.
Then the wolf stalked about, looked
around, trotted off some distance, and
set up howl. went farther and again
howled, and then into the woods, when
/ heard more bowling. The wolf being
out OF sight ! rowed my boat to the
place and got the deer, ard then went
back to my fish hooks, Shortly there
appeared on the scene a pack of ten or
twelve wolves. They shifted and moved
all around where the deer had been
killed. These movements occupied con-
siderable time. They would huddle to-
gether, change about, and mixing up
trot around in all directions, keeping
close together. Finally they got into a
fight, the whole pack attacked one
wolf and killed it. It was literally bit
and chewed to pieces. Now, what was
that wolf killed for? The probability is.
and l am almost positive. that the dead
wolf was the one that killed the deer.
I 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 I saw for lying 1t was the only
time I ever knew a wolf to be killed

FOUR GO JACKSON FOR LIFE
A Quartet OF the Molitor Murderers Sem
fenced by Judge Kelly.

Replse, Vocgler, Jacobs and Fuhr-
man will be imprisoned at jackson for
their natural lives for the murder of
Edward Molitor at Rogers City, Pressure
Isle county. So said Judge Kelly at
Alpena after asking the accused men
if they had anything TO say. They
each denied completely in the crime.
1t was surmised that Repke's sentence
would be lighter on account of his vol
unfairly confcssing TO the conspiracy.
He was the only one of the four who
broke down when sentence had been
pronounced.
Carl Noegler has wife and eight
chiicren, the oldest girl of Is and the
youngest n girl of 4 years of age;
Henry Jacobs has three children, the
eldest a young man well-known in
Pressure Isle county, % years of age;
August Thurman, the oldest of the
four, has a wife and SIN children, all
of whom are married and have families
of their own; Repkc has wife and
four children, the oldest grown up
man. The wives and families of all
the men live on farms in Pressure Isle
county and will not change their resi-
dences.

SHE WANTED TO DIE.
a Young Married Woman Took Paris
Green and Tried to Drown Herself

A Young Married Woman Took Paris
Green and Tried to Drown Herself
Mrs. Ida Benedict, a young married
.woman, the wife of Ed Benedict, en-
,ployed on the farm of William Pierce,
of hbhart Creek, near Lyons, made a
desperate attempt to end her life by
swallowing two heaping teaspoonfuls
OF paris green. Her husband discov-
cred the fact, and Immediately sent n
messenger TO Lyons for a doctor. Dur
ing the interval the woman came to
the conclusion that If doctor was
called he might thwart her plans, and
started for the Grand river, twice
crossing the Libha~t creek in her
flight and once falling into the water.
Having left the creek she ran for the
river, which was quarter Of mile
distant, and was in fair way to ac-
complish her purpose of drowning her
self, when her husband overlook her
just as she reached the waters edge.
He caught and carried her back to the
house. About an hour after she had
taken the poison DR.. Becliwith arrived
and administered the proper treatment.
A family quarrel was the cause of the
whole trouble.

Robbed Uncle Sam of 81 300, 900.

Special Treasury Agent Hanlon has
seized large consignments of Sumatra
tobacco at Philadelphia, which was
undervalued when it passed through
the custom house. The duty had been
paid at the rate of 35 cents per pound,
it having been invoiced as "fillers" in
stead of best wrappers, which it proved
TO be and which should have paid duty
at the rate of 81 per pound. The to-
bacco seized all came from Montreal,
consigned to j. Mertz, and was CLASH
fed at Ogdensburg, y. Y, by the Gus
toms collector at that port. 1t is
estimated by this system of under
valuation the losses TO Philadelphia
alone have aggregated not less than
1900, 900.
