regained their courage and led the way
to the lair of the wolf. The wolf was
gone. There was abundant evidence
that the wolf had lived on dog meat,
for there were canine bones here and
there near hole above tide water, and
inside there was the half-eaten carcass
of French poodle that had been the
pride OF one of the village tradesmen.
The next night the hunt was re-
sumed with more men and more dogs.
Not long after the hunters had gone on
their way something cold touched my

Then l told them that the wolf was
dog and friend of mine, and that
they could not kill him. NY friends
went away grumbling, their dogs
barking with great courage. 1 fixed
up Donald's paw as well as could and
then went to the village to make things
clear to my friends. They told of how
the supposed wolf had kept all but the
bull terrier at bay. The terrier had

An amusing story is told of a New
England minister who often speaks in
behalf of certain charity in which
he is greatly interested. He has fine
voice and graphic way of telling in
cidents both humorous and pathetic,
so that his hearers are often moved
TO laughter or to tears"
AT the close OF one meeting at which
he had spoken with great effect, and a
large gain for the charity had been the
direct result, little old lady ap-
preached the minister.
"Oh," she said, earnestly, "I've been
so interested in hearing about those
poor, dear children! And suppose a
great many of those stories you told
are really true, aren't they?"-

WHY WE DON'T GO TO CHURCH
By REV. CHARLES H. PARKHuRsT.

The great underlying cause of the falling off in
church attendance of recent years is the fact that so
many churches enter into sort of competition with
other attractions of the Sabbath
The church of to-day degrades itself to the people
instead OF lifting the people to itself fear that in its
efforts to popuarize itself the church forges the sphere
to which it belongs When it tries to seclarize itself
to please every passing fad of the hour when it stoops
to little sideshows and concerts that are beneath its
dignity, the modern church fOrgets its lofty ,,ee;o,

DENTIST WAS MURDERED
Inquest Into Cause of Young Mans
Death Is Begun by Coroner

OAKLAND, Sept. 23-The INQUEST to
determine the cause of the death of DR..
Edwin T.. Dimmick of Oakland. who was
found dead in the Contra Costa hills. was
begun at Martinez this morning at IL 80
o'clock by Coroner Curry. There were
present from Oakland Mrs Dimmick.
mother of the deceased: Lillian Dimmick.
his sister: c. Dimmick, a brother. and
Mrs. Edwin Dimmick. the widow of the
deceased, together with Edward Troy and
Frank Britton, who were in the company
of Dimmick on his trip to the hills
The mother was the first Witness She
testified that she believed her son had
been foully dealt with, but had no knowl-
edge of the fact. All she knew of the
circumstances was what she had read in
the papers and what she had been told
She had reason, however, to believe, she
said, that her sons life was in danger,
because her son had told her that Stella
Walker, or Florence WEIGH, the woman
who now claims to be the widow had
once stabbed him and that her son stated
at that time that Stella would get him
yet"
ut has been stated that my son was
a habitual drunkard," said the mother
IF so he could not have attended to bust
ness as he did. He was in his right mind
as far as l could see. If he was crazy it
was because of what they gave him in
