Zurich are records Of the various
kinds Of beasts that once existed In the
land OF the Red Cross. Evidences OF
beaver life have been found on the
shores OF Lake Morat. the bones and
skeletons being fully six centuries old
One OF the tributary streams which
feed the lake IL called Beaver Brook,
tho title being due to its former In
habitants. That the name il old is
shown by the fact that no beavers
have lived In Switzerland since the
twelfth or thirteenth century. Brown
bears we're plentiful In the mountain
lands until the seventeenth century.
The last one killed OF which there is
any ofacIal knowledge came to his end
In 1898 In Barbcreche. Nowadays the
bears are raised In Berne for various
show purposes. Deer were moro than
plentiful In the highlands In olden
times, but they were cleaned out pref
ty well In 1748 to 1850. There is q
record In the Swiss archives that q
deer was seen in the woods In 1871,
but It was apparently far from It's
own stamping ground. Up to the sew
enteenth century wolves were such
plaques that several cantons offered
substantial premiums for their heads
and skins. It took ages to chase them
on the plains. and fully 100 years more
to clean them out OF the highlands.
Not live wolf has been In Switzer-
land since 1887. The lynx disappeared
about the same time. Wild bears we're
numerous In the fifteenth and SIX
tcenth centuries. but none has been
encountered since 1880. A few wild
cats are reported to have been shot
since 1891, but the authorities doubt
the authenticity OF the reports. No less
than seven prominent kinds OF quad
rupeds have been exterminated In
Switzerland In five centuries, not to
mention the world-famouus wild goats

NAVAJO JOE.

Navajo Joe is out Of luck. Ordiu'
arily his vsgaries' are not regarded IN
Wolfville. His frequent appearance
In its single street In a voluntary ex-
hibftion OF nice feats OF horsemanshiD
coupled with an exhibition OF pistol
shooting, In which old tomato cans
and passe beer bottles perform as tar
gets, has hitherto excited no more
baleful sentiment In the Wolfviiie
bosom than disgust.
! But today 1t is different. Camps
Ike individuals, have moods. AT TINS
time Wolfville Is experiencing wave
OF virtue. 1t may have been excited
By the presence OF pale party OF
eastern tourists, just now abiding at
the o. X. hotel; gentlemen which the
rather sanguine sentiment of Wolfviiie
credits with meditating an investment
OF treasure In her rocks and rills. But
whatever the reason, Wolfville virtue
Is certainly aroused, which makes It
bad day for Navajo Joe.
The angry sun smites holly In the
deserted causeway OF Wolfville. The
public Is within doors. The Red Light
saloon is striving nightly. Navajo
Joe, rendering himself prisoner TO
Jack Moore, rescue or no rescue, has
by order OF that sagacious body been
conveyed by his captors before the
vigilance committee and Is about to be
tried for his life.
What was Navajo Joes immediate
crime? Certainly not a grave one.
Ten days before it would have hardly
earned comment. He has killed a
Chinaman. Here Is the story:
"Yere comes that prairie dog Navajo
Joe. all spraddled out" says Dave
Tut.
1T looks like this camp can never
assoome no aire." remarks Cherokee
Hall in distempered way, but this

AS he speaks that offending person
age, unconscious of the great change
In Wolfville morals, sweeps up the
street. expressing gladstone and &C.
static whoops and whirling his pistol
IN his forefinger like wheel of light.

vato Joe at once and abruptly halts.

yersi ministers and citizens.
The members Of the Lucier family
have consulted a local lawyer, and 1t
has been decided to place the proofs
Of Identification Of the local branch of
the family in the hands OF a wen
known New York firm, who make a
speciality of this class of cases.
1t transpires that this is the third
attempt made by the probate court to
locate the Southbrldge branch of the
Lucier family. This is shown in the let
| ter received by Michael Lucier yester-
day. which was referred to in this
mornings Spy.
The two former letter either niscar-
ried or fell into the wrong hands This
time the letter was addressed to Mich
ael Lucier in care Of the Central Mills
Company and reached the person
whom it was intended for. The letter
was read to Mr. Lucier by Frank c.
Dresser, treasurer Of the Central Mills
Company. Then The Spy man came
into possession Of the facts and pro-
claimed the good fortune of the Lucier
family of Southbridge TO the whole
world.
Members Of the Lucier family have
been advised to say nothing but saw
wood, and as a result, attempts of be-
lated newspaper men to secure some
thing new were absolutely without re-
suit. The letter has been received, the
Lucier family are expectant, and ma
turally exultant. and are gathering
every iota of data that Is possible pend
ing their final Judgment of proofs un-
deniable of their rights to share of the
Belthezor million. which will be for
warded TO the probate court In San Jose
in due time.
In the meantime Luciers are spring.
ing up like R1ushrooms in every locality
Michael Lucier and his local brothers
and sisters who last night reasonably
supposed that they had a comparative
cinch on the Belthezor millions, are con-
fronted with the fact that the stake is
a large one, and every one the country
over bearing the name of Lucier or
Belthezor viii suddenly become anx-
ious to claim relationship with the de-
ceased Rev. L. +. Belthezor
So far as heard from today illegal"
claimants Of portion of the estate
have materialized in Woodstock, Conn,
Providence, r. l., and Worcester.
Though the local branch of the family
are reticent, it was said by those sup
posed to know, that the Lucier family
Of Worcester, who are known to the
musical world, are in line for a chip
from the golden block now in the hands
Of the court west of the Rocky Noun

heirs to the millions were as much in
terested as their wives, but they
thought awhile before expressing them
selves, and then said that they should
do all they could to help their father
in-law to get his just dues, and that
they were glad to hear of the good for
tune.
NJ. ]. Bachand was interviewed at his
barber shop in the Brunswick Hotel
on Front street. He had told all his
friends, and they kept him busy dur
ing the day receiving congratulations.
He said that he would at once call a
conference OF the sisters, and then go
to Providence and consult with the
father.
If the Lucier family and Henry Bel
thezor are the only direct heirs living,
the latter will get one-half of the for
tune. and one million is quite a snug
pile to own in these days of want for
many.
The Worcester heirs are all well-to
do working people, but even a few
thousand divided among them would be
thankfully receievd.
Henry Belthezor will probably come
to Worcester during the week, and en-
gage counsel to look out for his inter
ests
The Belthezor branch of the family
will hold a conference upon the fathers
arrival, and it is thought that the Luz
cier branch will work in conjunction
with the Worcester heirs.
