Recognized and Nothing More.

The Washington correspondent of the
Rochester Herald thus tells how Speaker
Reed accommodated Representative Terry
of Arkansas:
MIR. Speaker said Judge Terry of Ar
kansas, the other day, II have asked You
great many times to recognize ME to get
this bill of mine uD for consideration and
you have refused. Now, my people are
greatly interested in it, and SO I ask you
once more to recognize me. If the bill is
defeated in the House l shan't complain.
But l want to be recognized TO get it up"
"All right, judge the Speaker drawled.
And then, turning to page as the judge
began to pour out his thanks for the ia
vor, the Speaker sent him for Dalzcll. Dali
zell came up to the Speaker, who inter-
rupted the thanks of the judge by saying:
'Dalzell, Judge Terry wants to be rec
ognized to call up a bill to pay some
church people In his district some money
for damages done them during the war. 1
wish that you would stay on the floor and
when 1 recognize the judge, as l have
promised him to do, l want You to object
to his request for unanimous consent to
it's consideration"
Ere the astonished judge could catch his
breath Dalzell had promised and left.
Judge Terry looked at the Speaker, who
was now listening to some one else, and
walked slowly and thoughtfuiy down the
steps to Dalzelrs seat.
"Dalzell." said the judge. you don't
reckon the Speaker was in earnest about
asking you to object to my request for
unanimous consent to consider my bill, do
your
Most assuredly he was in earnest Dali
zell replied. And I suppose the reason
he called on me to object was because he
| had refused to recognize me to get sim
liar bill up. and he probably thought
was SO mad l would be glad to object"
Well the astounded judge said ''do
you mean to say that you intend to make
such an objection?"
Certainly" replied Dalzell.
| The Judge. who has been a member OF
| the House for three termst went to his seat
| to think over this new way of legislation
| Finally he rose and walked toward the
| door. The Speaker saw and sent for him

"Oh," replied the Speaker. IT didn't sup

Russian Hounds for Dakota Wolves.

Russian Hounds for Dakota Wolves.
From the Minneapolis Journal.
H. N. Murphy of Fargo got in here today
from Chicago with five great Russian stag
hounds, destined for the Murphy ranch in
the Dakota Bad Lands. The hounds are
immensee, bristling. Notwithstanding crea-
lures. but they are as kind and gentle as
Pet poodles, and only exhibit their fighting
qualities in the settlement of personal diff
ferences or when engaged in chase.
I'VE have been trying for a long time to
get hold of some of these dogs" said Mr..
Murphy, but they are in such great de-
mand among the ranchers of Montana and
North Dakota that 1t is almost impossible
to buy one up in that cJuntry. The Rus
sian is the best wolf ho.nd in the world.
He will tackle gray wolf single-handed
and chew his head off in very short order.
They are the most powerful hounds in ex-
istence and we hope in time to have large
pack on our place.
The ravageS of gray wolves among horse
herds on the ranges are a severe loss to
ranchers every year. Last season we lost
seventy-five colts out of herd of GOO Nor
crease every season. We used to poison
large number with strychnine but they are
on to that game now, and you might strew
fifty tons of meat with strychnine on 1t
through that country without getting
wolf. l believe they can smell the poison.
Those Russian hounds are absolutely fear
less, and the wolves are mortally afraid of
them. We shall train our dogs to herd the
horses, and it seems that they ought to
prove effective in at least cutting down the
loss to which we have been subject"
