FEROCIOUs WILD DOGS

New York Telegram.

New York Telegram.
A family of wild dogs, almost as savage
as wolves, has been discovered in the ter
Titory between Lopez, in this county. and
Ricketts,, in Wyoming, Pennsylvania.
One OF the ours was captured the other
day by Draper Bowman after he had
wounded 1t. When Bowman shot the ami
NAL there were seven others, nearly all
full grown, that ran growing and snarl-
ing away. The dogs had been at work on
the carcass of a half-grown heifer that
had wandered into the woods. and was
killed by the dogs themselves or died. The
captured dog-as were those with it's coal
black, about the size of an ordinary shep-
herd. But its jaws are of the long. wolf
Is wild Its body is long and lean.
Reports OF wild dogs between Ricketts,
and Lopez have been made by woodmen
and others for several years, but IL was
thought that these animals were stray
creatures that had drlfted into the woods
for seasons running after foxes and
deer.

wild dogs deep in the forest. One who
saw them declared they were wolves, and

way these creatures had again become in

the stream, was robbed or all meats.
Tracks of a half dozen dogs were seen in
the mud.
These wild ours are believed to be the
offspring of two dogs once owned by a
hermit who lived in the wilds east of here.
When the old man was taken in charge
by the poor overseer the dogs remained in

on the program delivered their pieces

only eight days. However, the rever-
end gentleman saw many things on
that eight days trip-(possibly no
more than others who have taken the
trip have seem but the DR.. wrote it
down, and then he has such way of
saying things that it really seems that
he has seen more. The extraordinary
color of the clouds and ocean got his
attention first and after soaring to
heights unknown, he came down to
deck and those who where laid up
with internal troubles about that
time. And then he told fish story
about how whole schools Of the little
flyers would rise into the air and sail
on the wind for hundred yards. A
frigate bird held him spell-bound for
a long time and the next thing that
attracted his attention was the ap-
pearance Of many new people at the
tables. This was the third day out,
and 1t seemed to him that a large
number of strangers must have board
ed the ship during the night. The
ocean traveller understands this of
course. Each day was practically a
repetition Of the other until Honolulu
was reached. OF course the DR.. took
in everything that was to be seen

the magnificent parks where brilliant.

palms, cocoanuts, banana fields and
all. He explained the relative posi-
tions OF the islands with the extraor-
binary channels between and told a
story Of how DR.. who when called
to another island to see patient was
usually sicker when he got there than
the patient. DR.. Paden went to the
Hawaiian Islands more to see an ac-
tive volcano than anything else, and
of course his lecture centered largely
on this. When he arrived at Honolulu
the word had Just been received that
Kiloa was in action and 1.-THE Dr. made
a grand rush for the island on which
is located this great volcano. The
trip involved voyage of 800 miles by
water to the farthermost end of the
group of islands. He told of his
ascent and described in technical
way the appearance Of the mountain
the crater, and the eruptions. This
was very int efesting indeed, and
