A WOLF FOND OF GIRLS.
Cur,ou. Partially shown by /. Chicago

| EarK ANIMAL.
| One of the wolves in Lincoln parl,
used to be pet. 1t was brought from
Arkansas when very young by a Lake
| View man who used to make hunting
visits annually to the southwest, says
| the Chicago Times. Before entering
| public life it used to enjoy large de-
gree of freedom, and it seldom abused
the confidence reposed by its owner.
| The Lake View man had a number of
berry bushes and pear tree. When
fruit ripened it had been the habit of
boys in the neighborhood to steal most
of the fruit. But the young wolf
stopped them the very first season
after it's arrival. No boy was safe in
the neighborhood of the vines or pear
| tree.
But the wolf did have liking for
little girls-a liking more amiable than
that of its relative who is embalmed in
the tale of Little Red Riding Hood. :"
After one season of disappointment the
boys learned of this partiality on the
part of the wolf and then they used to
get little girls to steal the fruit for
them. The girls would walk boldly in
to the yard when the boys told them
there was no one watching, and if the
wolf approached one would stop and
play with him and the rest would get
the fruit. But no amount of attention
would distract the VOLTS attention SO
that boy could come in. He would
break away from the most enticing lit
tie girl and chase any boy over the
fence in short order. And he would
play around the little girls who were
stealing the fruit, but he would never
offer to harm them.
However, the girls didn't like to be
used in that manner, and there came
day when the boys could not get them
to steal the fruit. After repeated trials,
and after watching the fruit grow SO
ripe that If not soon removed it would
be ripe enough for the family, one
of the boys hit on an excellent
ruse. He went home and bor-
rowed his sisters dress. Putting it
on, he climbed over the fence and ap-
preached the lair OF the wolf. As he
prepared for seductive gambol with
the wolf, another boy, clad in another
caiico dress, climbed over the fence and
approached the pear tree. But the wolf
was not to be deceived, He made
rush for the one nearest him and caught
the dress in his sharp teeth. He tore
the garment into shreds before the lad
could escape. And then he went after
the one who tried to beguile him into
play. This boy was little less for
tunate, for the wolf bit him rather Sc
verely; SO the Lake View man sold him
to the park commissioners, and now he
frowns at boys and girls alike from be-
hind the bars.

ATHRILLING DETECTIVE STORY.
The Exploits of Two Government sleaths
Told In a Public Document.

The Exploits of Two Government sleuths
Told In a Public Document.
The government publishes a great
variety of matter in the course of
year, from presidential messages to
history of diseases of the gadfy, and
the variety of reading matter has been
increased within the last few days by
the publication of a real detective
story, with diagrams according to
Gaboriau.
Thisis the history of the sandbagging
and robbery of a stamp clerk in the
Chicago post office one dark night last
winter, when the wind was whistllng
around the corner and the sleet dash
ing against the windows. The story OF
the crime and the vain search of the
two government sleuths for the Grim
inal are given at great length and in
the minutest detail. All OF this is con-
tanned in a pamphlet of eleven pages,
accompanying a claim of the late post
master for the amount of the robbery,
which he was compelled to make good.
There are a number of diagrams to
illustrate the story. One of them
shows where the body of the clerk
was found" "the door where Miss
Jones came in, .'the window where
the robber escaped, "the door where
the robber entered" and other minute
details. Another diagram shows the
postal clerk as he stood at his desk, but
fails to represent the robber and the
sandbag, although everything else,
even to Miss Jones' desk, is portrayed
vividly,
Many pages of closely printed type
are filed with the history of the efforts
OF the government sleuths.
"There were two theories to work
upon," writes one of them: First, that
Robinson had robbed himself and in
ficted upon himself the injuries to
cover up his crime, or that some one
habits of Mr.. Robinson had planned
and successfully put in execution the
robbery. called to my assistance the
superintendent of the Pinkerton agen-
cy of this city. who rendered me every
assistance in his power, without cost,
to get some clew to the perpetrators OF
the bold robbery. We have worked
upon every plausible theory, but have
failed to get any clew to lead us on
successful trail"
The outcome of the work on these
two theories is reported as follows:
"The result of the investigation in
this case has convinced me of two
things: First, that it was bona fide
robbery; second. that it was conceived
and planned, if not perpetrated, by
some one perfectly familiar with the
workings of that branch of the postal
department in this city, but the plan
was so well executed that up to the
present moment we have been unable
to get single clew that would fasten
the guilty party
So the robbery remains a mystery,
and>the thrilling story Of the two gov
ernment sleuths goes on file in the an
nails of congress.

DOG THAT WORMS TOBACCO.
Kentucky Canine That Is Hired Out as .
Field Hand.

Speaking of funny things, did you
ever hear of wonderful dog that is
owned by John A. Durr, who lives at
Vanarsdall, little settlement down in
Mercer county, KY? asks the Chicago
Times. This dog beats Dick Bruce's
and Tom Quinlin's dogs all holler. He
is worth his weight in gold. He worms
tobacco. He begins at the end of the
row and goes down the line at lively
gait, and no worm is left to tell the
tale of the desolation wrought. The
dog learned this trick by following
Durr's little boys. When the boys
would start down the row the dog
would follow along.
After watching the youngsters for
several days the dog caught on to the
work himself and took a great liking
to it. One day Durr went out to his
tobacco patch and found his boys play
ing in the shade, which was not a
strange thing for boys to do. why
the devil amt you worming tobacco?"
he yelled. ''Ned's doing it," they yelled
back. Durr went to the patch and
found the big pointer dog busily en-
gagged in worming the plants, and he
was doing it faster than both the boys
could have done. Durr was tickled to
death. After his own patch had been
wormed he hired the dog out to his
neighbors at one dollar day. All this
can be proved by two or three revenue
men who never lie.

AMERICAS FOREIGN POLICY

George W. Smalley. the London
correspondent of the New York 7ri-
buns, has cent cablegram to his paper
regarding the proposed Intervention of
the United States in the Armenian
question which will certainly have the
effect of making the American people
deliberate before consenting to thrnst
themselves into the hurly- burly Of
European politics. Mr.. Smalley says:
"There is desire in Europe that
America should take part, for it can
hardly be doubted such Intervention
would be welcomed by the European
powers as a Reputation OF the Mon
roe doctrine. If the United States Is
entitled to say to Europe, hands off
In Auerica,' Europe may equally ex-
clude American influence from Euro
pean affairs. She may be in a position
to say, by taking part In the Arme-
nian commission, with, perhaps, the
integrity of the Turkish empire at
stake. you renounce the right to pro-
hibit us from meddling with questions
touching America. ;"
Mr.. Smalley is often wrong, but
this time he is absolutely right, says
the San Francisco Chronicle. We
have no more business to interfere In
a conflict between the Sultan of Tur-
key and his Armenian subjects than
we have to settle the succession to the
throne of Madagascar or the govern
orship, by whatever name it may be
known. of Afghanlstan. 1t may suit
President Cleveland and Secretary
Gresham to seek, outside of this coun
try, an adventitious fame which they
have not acquired here, but a greater
man than they, George Washington,
warned his country against entangling
alliances, and, at least by implication,
conveyed the idea that ours should be
a nation by itself, ready and willing
to treat on terms of equality with
every country in the world, but that
they should come to US in lieu of our
going to them.
The time is not ripe for US to take
an sotive part In European politics.
1t may come; we may be forced by
stress of circumstances to make our
selves known and felt; but when the
time comes it must be with mailed
hand, not with the silken glove. Ar
menia is not proper fulcrum for the
lever with which Arwerica some day
may move Europe. Let Us bIde our
time and wait until q condition arises
in which we can say "thus and so is
the law" and the civilized world will
accept our decision as final and con-
elusive,

THE PEKIN CAMPAIGN.

Several missionaries who we're sta
toned in China for fifteen or twenty
years, and who claim to have studied
people and country to some purpose,
do not share the general belief that
the Japanese will capture Pekin or
succeed in war Of conquest. They
admit that the Japanese army is su-
perior to that of China in discipline
and general efficiency, but contend
that in nearly every case where de-
clsive victory was reported the Jap
anese outnumbered the Chinese, and
in one case three to one. They insist
that as the Japanese penetrate the
country toward the capital they will
meet the flower of the Chinese army
and be SO harassed by -hordes q irreg-
nlar troops that the march will be in
effective if not disastrous DR.. Blod-
gett expresses the opinion that the in
habitants of the interior of China know
less about the war with Japan than
the farmers of our far West, but when
the Japanese army penetrates the in
t,rior or threatens the capital then it
will be confronted by the masses of the
Chinese people.
The province in which Pekin is
situated is not much larger than ILL
nois, but it has q population of 27.-
100000. occupying district not we'll
suited to a military campaign. 1t is
repoIted that the high roads leading to
Pekin are well guarded, and that the
defenses of the city Gt is a walled
town, with gates defended by forti6ca-
tions) are in good condition.
On the other hand, the successes of
the Japanese indicate a knowledge of
the weak points in the Chinese line
and an ability to handle troops in all
anemy's country. The invading army,
flushed as it is by success, must be
met not BY hordes of people. but by a
well-disciplined and superior force.
The march on Pekin will be neces-
sarily slow, but unless peace is de-
clsred within few weeks there is
little doubt the Japanese will make it.
Then will come the real test of war,
and. if the conditions are as reported
by the missionaries, there will be hard
sighting and a long campaign.
