MAKE no SOUNDS.
The animal has not barked. hnWlea,

caught. and no amount of beating can
elicit a sound from IL Raw meat is Inc
only food it viii eat.
This is the first appearance OF wolves
in a hundred years In this section OF Var
einia and North Carolina, and conse-
quently speculation is rife as TO their
origin The first theory was that they
were driven out of the Dismal Swamp by
the recent fire, but this has been discarded
tn favor Of a second theory.
Seven years ago wolf was lost at
Weldon, N c.. by a circus. 1t is believed
that these marauders are nothing more
than degenerate cross-breeds.
