The gray wolf, the bane of the cat
tleman and flookmaster, appears to
multiply and flourish III defiance of
the efforts OF the hunter and the price
set upon his head. Advices from all
sections of the range country report
that gray wolves are as numerous and
destructive as ever. Range riders arc
witnesses to the fact that the latest
and strongest steers are frequently
overcome by these ferocious beasts,
while the weak and infirm surrender
to their attacks almost without strug-
gle. The live stock loss of Montana
from this source cannot be calculated,
but from the nature of the case il must
be tremendous.

Strangely Warned.

The following remarkable occur
renee, an absolute fact, is related by
lady visiting friends in Hartford, as
1T was told by her cousin in Meerat,
Northwestern India. II took place in
the house of the sister of the narrator.
Oh It's absolute accuracy there can be
no question. The two sisters in India
arc connected with families OF repute
and with officers of the British army
IN India. The Hartford Times gives
tho story as the lady here related it.
She is devout member of the Episco-
pal Church and is incapable OF mis-
representing in the slightest particu-
lar.
r Her cousin, in whose house the oc.
currence took place, was seated at q
lighted table engaged in reading,
when, thinking il about time to retire,
and happening to lift her eyes from
her book, she was sstonished to sec
seated in chair beside her, and be-
tween herself and the door to the
bathroom, man, stranger to her,
who calmly regarded her. " was too
great n surprise for her to speak and
demand who was thus intruding un-
hidden upon her privacy and what
was wanted. She remained for a mo.
mont in silent establishment.
Then il gradually dawned upon her
her that tho figure was probably not
that of a person of real flesh and
blood, but n visitor from the unseen
world of life. She remembered hay
ing once, as a child, seen n similar
figure, under circumstances which
seemed TO preclude the idea that il
was any person still in the body, and
in later years, in revolving those cir
cumstances, she had remembered how
the opparation had after o little while
faded away into invisibility. Cunclud-
ing that this new visitor also was not
a person of flesh and blood, she sat
silently gazing ut the silent object,
while the intruder, whoever or what.
ever he was, sat also in silence, steadily
regarding her. Just how long this
state of things lasted the lady did not
accurately know, but it was probably
not very long when the mysterious
stranger began TO vanish into thin
ner and thinner personal presence,
until in moment or two he had van
ished quite away.
1t was the lady's hour for her even
ing bath, but she thought she would

their confinement in another room.
They came barking furiously and run.

There, through the open door, the
lady was Mortified to see on the floor n
monstrous cobra-the snake whose
bite is certain and speedy death.

If she had gone directly to the bath
room as she would have done but for
the Intervention of her mysterious
yisitant, her life would undoubtedly
have been sacrificed in the act
