CANADA'S GAME FIELDS.
They are in No Danger of Ever Becoming
Game-Barren.

To one who knows what the vast soli-
tudes of Northern Canada really mean
the dread of game determination seems
rather uncalled for. The latest census
Of Labrador gives 1t population Of
one man to every thirty-fve square
miles. This can hardly be called an in
convenient crowding. There are almost
as many persons in a single East Side
New York block as there are in the
whole of Labrador. Why should game be-
come extinct in this region? l must
confess l can see no reason why the
caribou and the bear and the other ami
mails should not live out their lives just
as they have always done. The numbers
killed by man must surely be quite in
significant: The same conditions OBJ
tain in Northern Ontario, the greater
part of the northwest territories, and a
very large part of British Columbia.
The date is far distant when there will
not be sufficient game and to spare for
the sportsman who is content to take
the bitter with the sweet and to leave
behind the righteousness Of the fashion

BETRAYED BY HIS DOG.
Counterfeiter's Animal Unwittingly Led
to His Detection.


to His Detection.
George Woodstock, notorious in Eng
land as the liking Of counterfeiters." is
now undergoing sentence of fourteen
years penal servitude as the result Of
being betrayed by his dog. For several
years Woodstock manufactured counter
felt money, and the only clew the detec-
tives ever succeeded in obtaining was
that the counterfeiter owned dog
named Nero.
Forthwith there was organized a most
comprehensive as we'll as exhaustive
local canine census. Every retriever dog
in the district was followed. and the
ostensible business carried on by it's
owner verified. But to no purpose.
There were found to be some hundreds
of bowwows of that particular breed in
that particular district, but in every case
the status Of their possessions was found
to be unilnpeachable.>

stopped and looked up inquiringly. The
detective bought him beef, made friends
with him, and followed him when he at
last made for home.
A few inquiries convinced the inspec-
earth, but he had as vet no evidence to
secure a conviction. So for weeks he
watched and waited, cementing his
friendship with the dog meanwhile.
Then. when all was ripe for action,
Woodstock, his wife, and his child were
decoyed away for day by one of Fox's
secret agents; the detective let himself
into the house with a skeleton key, and
the now thoroughly complaisant retriever
was led by his chain to the borough
wherein it was believed the mint they
wanted was situated.
Arriving there the dog was released
and told to find his master. Away he
went, wagging his tail, and close behind
him in handsom followed the Inspector

he only comes to work two or three days

That very night Woodstock was ar

hands of his enemies by the one friend
he trusted, and one, too, who would not
have knowingly harmed hair of his
