ferred- For all he knows the presence of

the wolves did not long before his day
externfnate the buffalo.
Asked If the extinction OF the buffalo
might not be ascribed partly to this cause,
ne said not, that the hunter alone ex-
terminal ted the immense herds which half
a century ago were sovereign on these
prairies. It IS a noteworthy fact that the
buffalo wolf did not survive his compan-
ion and prey, for with the disappearance
Of the buffalo the wolf vanished also. A
larger part OF the wolves were killed by
hunters.
Buffalo meat was eaten by the hunters
and they never tired Of II. II was often
used too for wolf bait and wolf-hides were
then the bonanza in the hunting world,
the hides finding an ultimate destination
in Europe where they were used for sleigh
robes.
The organized hunting companies for
buffalo-robes and the wof-hunters finally
put an end 20 both the buffalo and the
wolf. Companies thoroughly equipped
and well paid were sent out TO get hides.
One season there was sent from Dodge

not last long.

ing one on which to speculate. the vital
relations between the two great English
speaking peoples are those of thought and
moral pu, pose. Our intellectual life and our
religious life are one. Ideas, perhaps, l may
say also ideals, are common tie Our
literature Is a common bond. Now, as ac-
tion always follows ideas undeviatingly, the
fact of our mutual literary and ethical
ideas conduces SO inevitably to coInmon ac-
'tion that this may be taken for granted in
the. future, wholly without any formal
declarations 1t is one of those trends of
life that follow great natural laws. The
precipitation of some great moral question
might create and fuse a formal declaration
of alliance at once-Such a question, for
instance as that of the Armenian atrocities
which should vitally touch the religious
feeling of both peoples. 1t is from the close
relations of moral sentiments rather than
from airy consideration of political ad-
vantages that the AngIo-kmerican alliance
may at last be expected to come"

the left leg, resulting from a portion of the
roof or top falling and striking him while
following his employment in Risca col
lieries The, patient made an uninterrupted
recovery and was able in about six months
to resume his work underground.
The patients previous history, told by
himself and cerroborated by others, is very
remarkable. With the exception of an at
tack of typhoid fever, whicn he had when
! eighteen years of age, and two or three at
tacks of qufnzy subsequently, he had not
suffered bodily in any way. He was al

fortunes in the mine were many and are
remarkable from the fact that they all hap
pened on the 26tR QiaysSf August. Here is

There is no reason to doubt, however.
that the international relations between
Great Britain and tks United States may
continually grow closer and more friendly
There is no probability that the United
States has any idea of ever interfering
with our possessions in Canada, and Lord
Salisbury's extraordinary and breathless
change of front regarding the Venezuela
question compelled us to accept henceforth
the leadership Of the United States In all
policies relating to America. Nor is this
position likely to change The Clayton-BuI-
wer treaty Is dead, you know.
The Anglo-American alliance may pos-
sibly be the outcome of either one or two
things. The most obvious is that in case
any European power should attack Amer
lea, by any unforeseen result of her war
with Spain we, in this possibility, should
espouss her cause and assist her in
enforcing her policy. But this possibility
is remote. / can think Of no conceivable
