WILD DOG IN NEW JERSEY
Great Swamp on the Maurice River
Oyerrun by Woifsh CANNES

From the New York Journal
A great swamp. through which the Maui
rice river meanders, a few miles west CT
Vineland. n. j., is overrun with a pack OF
dogs that are Wild and savage as wolves.
The stock was originally domestlcated, but
the animals have gradually gone back. until
today they are as fierce and dangerous as Il
their direct ancestors had never enjoyed the
civilizing society OF man.
Jack Kite, young hunter of Vineland was
the first man to be attacked. He was stroIing
through the underbrush recently when eleven
shaggy brutes burst into view so suddenly
that he dropped his gun and climbed a tree,
there to remain for hours until the dogs
ceased their snarling and one by one stole
away. The next day Joel Chew and son.
"Ner." famous huntsmen took the trail and
almost met with a tragic end In a dark re-
cess Of the swamp seven of the wild animals
sprang upon them and were repulsed only
after four barrels of shot had been poured
into them. In the trail OF blood ''Ner'' found
a puppy and declares its mother was as large
a st. Bernard.
The next day Fred Simpkins took up the
trail OF blood and succeeded in killing the
mother and three more puppies. The dogs are
OF a dirty brown color. except three or four
shaggy black Newfoundands. They thrive on
the dead animals discarded by the town and
what they can steal from the farmers in the
vicinity. They howl around at night and
carry away poultry anything within reach.
When the cold winter comes in earnest and
snow covers the ground the farmers fear their
ravages.

IS IT DURABLE 2
A Question Often Asked by Those AfFict
ed With Piles.

Is a strained joint durable? Is local
Inflammation durable? OF course. IL
properly treated. So is piles.
People often become afflicted with
piles and ask some old chronic" who
has always persisted in the wrong
treatment and naturally he discourages
them by telling them that their case Is
hopeless.
They in turn discourage others, and
thus a disease that can in every case
be cured by careful and skillful han
ding is allowed to sap the energy of
thousands who might free themselves
of the trouble in few days.
Pyramid Pile Cure will cure the most
aggravated case of hemorrholds in an

mors instantly, no matter how large.
allays the Inflammation and stops the
aching or itching at once.
Thousands who had resorted to ex-
pcnsive surgical treatment have been
cured by the Pyramid Pile Cure-in a
number of instances persons who had
spent months in hospital under pile
specialist.
1t is a remedy that none need fear to
apply even to the most aggravated,
swollen and infiamed hemmorrhoidal
tumOrs
If you are afflicted with this stubborn
disease, you can master 1t and master
it quickly.
This remedy is no longer an expert
ment, but a medical certainty 1t Is
manufactured by the Pyramid Drug
Co. of Marshall Mich.
Druggists sell 1t at so cents per box
1t is becoming the most popular pile
cure this country has ever known, and
druggists everywhere are ordering it
for their customers.

work for women out of employment, as
far as possible, and to provide them
with as cheap a home as practicable
While they are seaching for work. It has
been easier to secure work the past

the officers hope for still more prosper
Gus times.
The Jones Harrison home, which pro-
viGes for the comfort Of number Of
aged women, has had a quiet and I'M
eVentful year. The inmates of the
home have been in good health and &C
lively employed in knitting and fash
fCning simple garments, which give
them sufficient employment for content
ment; the receipts for the year have
been $2.669.66, and the expenditures
$2,13S.S0. The home has a permanent
fund of S14 100, the income from which
is devoted to the needs of INDECENT and
helpless women.
The relief work has been carried on
among the poor, whose needs have been
personally investigated by the members
of the friendly visiting committees.
One hundred and tUenty-eight dollars
and five cents has been expended and
1882 garments distributed, of which
LIS have been contributed within the

Two Score of Them VIII Be at the
Metropolitan This Evening

1t is expected that the Minneapolis Lodge
OF Eiks Till turn out en- masse this evening
at the 'ca:it Of the St. Pau. lodge. at tho
Metropolitan c.era house there. Owing to
the regular nesting night of the Minneapolis
lodge last evening, there was no attendance
from that city. Fcrty-four will make IN fer
the absence this evening, and join the CalutIy
City Elks.
The Minneapolis lodge of EIks has consid-
cradle business on its hands for the near
future. The last Friday evening Of March
occurs the annual election Of officers; during
the week of April II, the annual benefit CT
the lodge will be given at of the local
theaters. And then in May the Elks will
gather at New Orleans. These three events
are important ones in Elkdom. The cleo
ton of officers in lodge of Elks often ex-
cites the greatest interest in that the honor
to a position in a ledge is by no means con-
sdered 4 small one Then what political
disagrecments may have arisen during this
election will be thrust aside in the labor for
a successful benefit and the whole matter

A DELIGHTFUL PLACE.
Where Nature "a Kind md One
Wishes to Dream Life

From the New Orleans Times Democrat
OF all fascinating places under the
sun, said gentleman who has tray
eled much. the Island of Tahiti, one
or the Society islands, is the most
fascinating. In that country, a little
earth lost in vast ocean, nature has
done everything to make indolent
souls happy. The climate is temperate
and even all the year round, the vege-
tat1on is luXuriant the women beau
tful and the nights, full of perfume
and mystical light. stir the most prac-
teal mind to love of meditation and
dreaming. The influence of this
dreamy, lazy life is very inzidtous. 1t
Is not necessary to work, as the island
furnishes food without the labor of
tlllage. L know a number of Ameri-
cans and French who had gone there
for visit and have become so en-
raptured with the dangerous existence
that, like the visitors to lotus land
they lie down and forget friends
home, ambition and everything. I re-
member how l used to feel the influ-
ence steal upon me. Many a time 1
wished earnestly to cast my lot with
those languorouS people. I can look
back now and see myself as / lay one
night against cocoanut tree in a sort
of an ecstacy of meditation. Over
head was a sky, bright with a myriad
stars. Sounds came to me in a
strange fashion. blending into a muir
