An incident in illustra ton Of a sma:t
trick said to be not infiequently played
by coyotes in securing food from among
the herds of sheep on Western ranches
is related by rancher of Grant Coun-
ty, Oregon. He had a herd of about
1000 sheep, and recently missed n large
number. In searching for them Il herd
or found three sheep lying on the brink
of prccipice, their Threats marked

his way to the bottom of a canyon, 300
feet below. and there found the bodies
of 10 sheep, or rather parts of their
bodies, for the coyotes had been feed
ing Oh their carcasses for q week or
4 more From other incidents of like
character 1t was concluded that several
coyotes had got among the herd when
the sheep were driven off their bedding

much as a lot of sheep dogs would
drive sheep. When the edge was
reached the coyotes pressed the herd
so hard in the rear that the 10 at the
front either jumped or were pushed
over the prccipice.

elected in 1892. During the reorgani-
cation Of the party, in 1890, Bebel ad-
vocated parliamentarianism as the
chief means of agitation, but in this

the party. He served as delegate to
the international socialist congresses in
Paris, 1889; Brussels, 1901; Zurich, 1893
and Breslau during the present year.
On the latter occasion he made his ia

Is In every sense n self-made man. He
was born Feb. 90, 1910, In Cologne, and
received his early education In a vii

attended grammar school In Wetzlar,
and in 1860 he removed to Lelpslc,
where he established his own business,
that Of wood-turner and carver, In
1854. Two years prior to that date he
had joined in the workingmen's move

moved to Berlin, Bebel was president
Of the WOrkingmen's Educational Club
In Leipsic and member of the perma-

1867 he became identified with the
editorial management Of the Volkstaat,
a socialistic paper in Leipsic, and con-
tinued this connection until he became
one OF the managers OF the Vorwaerts,
the leading German socialistic daily
published In Berlin. He was elected to
the North German Parliament in 1867

In the election of June, 1893, he was
even elected in two districts, choosing

Maggie Was Only Half Hanged.

A curious instance of the hangman's
rope failing to perform it's fatal work
gave to Margaret Dickson, an English
woman of century and half ago,
the nickname OF Half-Hanged Mag
gie"-a name by which she was known
throughout the British Isles. Maggie
had been convicted of some capital
offense There were several such Of
lenses catalogued in the English stat
utes at that time), and was finally taken
to the gallows on the hill at Edinburgh.
After the drop fell she was allowed to
hang several hours before friends
claimed the remains and started with
them in cart for Musselburg. six miles
away. On the way some drunken ap-
prentices rudely halted the cart and
opened the coffin in order to see the
woman who had been hanged. This let
in fresh air, and the air and jolting Of
the cart combined to revive the sup
posed dead woman long before the
home of the relatives was reached. Ar.
irving there, she was carried into the
house, alive but very faint and barely
conscious. A minister was called to
pray for her, but she soon recovered
sufficiently to demand that the minister
be dispatched for doctor, who could
administer relief that would be Of far
greater value to her at that moment
than any minister's spiritual Emporium.

Maggie quickly recovered, but was nov

crime. Later on she married and be.
came the mother Of several children.
She lived to be quite old, but the nick

even after death, being engraved on the

Archbishop did his best to suppress
1t even before 1t was put in the Index.
