So many startling events happened
from day to day during the reign Of
terror that the apparition Of wild dogs
in Paris is commonly overlooked. But
il was quite natural The greater part
Ut those grandees who fed OF went in
to hiding kept dogs, and very few Of
them were able to make any arrange
ment for the poor beasts when they left
home.
The dogs, abandoned. took to the
streets. of course, and shortly they be.
gan to congregate in two packs, one &C.
cupying the Champs Elysees and one
the Bois de Boulogne. Soon they became
public danger. Carlyle pokes fun at
Santerre. the brewer. who proposed y
law that all dogs should be hanged; he
had not noticed the paragraphs in the
newspapers telling how people had been
attacked in the Champs Elysees.
At length the situation became really
grave. as Is easily understood when
thousands Of starving animals have to

Of them were wolf hounds and Of DOW
erful fighting breeds. So in September,
1898, drastic measures were taken
against the Champs Elysees pack.
Two battalions Of the national guard
surrounded the area, leaving gap to-
ward the Rue Royale, while mu:titudes
OF ragamuffins beat the cover The game
was driven up the Rue Royale to the
Place Royale. where troops made bat

secutively this operation was repeated,
and more than s, 900 dead dogs Law in
the place.
A certain Gaspardin received orders
to clear them away. and he, short Of
means, applied for the royal e9uipases.
II was timely jest, greeted with ap-
plause. So NJ Gaspardin packed the
dead dogs neck and heels in silded
coaches as full as they would hold and
made state procession through delight

"THE good that men do lives
after them," is as true of editors
as any people living if not more
SO. If we print something gsod
about anybody we never hear OF
it, but if we say anything men
don't like, we hear of it very soon.
We may pay some people a hund-
red compliments and they never
hear of it or notice it;they evident
ly take il as a tribute to their
greatness; but when anything is
said about him that is not compli-
mentary he gets up on his ear in
great shape. We know a number
of people who it is easy to say
something good about any day day
in the week, and we also know
others who it is mighty hard to
ever say anything good about and
tell the truth, but they are the
ones who expect the most.

The people who live in the vi

south of this city, are somewhat
excited over what appears to be a
case of grave robbery which occur
red last week. The cemetery is
south of the switch about one mile
and near the school house. One
night last week the people of that
section gathered at the school
house to attend a "box social, "
and the next morning it was dis.
covered that the grave which con-
tanned the body of VIM. Walton
Had been opened. The persons
who made the discovery filled the
grave up again without making a

been done but think the skull had
been removed from the body.

THE CHrEFTAIN has repeatedly
called attention to the danger and
the dire consequences of carrying
concealed arms. Hardly a week
elapses without the occurrence OF
some awful tragedy on account OF
somebody having pistol in his
pocket. Every man who carries a
gun wouldn't like to admit that he
was carrying it to kill somebody
with, but such is the only logical
conclusion and sooner or later that
will be the result. A man with a
pistol in his pocket feels like he
ought not take an insult and will
get into trouble oftener than if un-
armed and with far more disas-
trous results. We know some
good men, who carry pistols and
they don't realize that they are not
only violating the law continually
themselves, but set the example
for others and thus become a men
ace to society. In the absence of
whisky and pistols there would be
few killings to report from this
territory or anywhere else.

The charge can be sustained. 1t
is the duty of every honest and

A man who sits as judge and who
corruptly prostitutes that office is

the execration of all mankind as
well as the highest penalty that
