LAST WOLF IN VERMONT
KILLED WITH A BROOM
Farmer and His Dog Had Lively Time
With the Beast.

The skin Of the only gray wolf killed
I'm Vermont in the last fifty years was
brought into Starksbcro, VT, last week
by David Dixie farmer, who killed
the animal in a patch OF woods near
his barn after "A severe fight. in which
Dixie and dog were badly used up.
Dixie had just gone into the house
from the barn, where he had been milk
ing. when his attention was attracted by
his shepherd dog, which was loudly
barking IN front OF the henhouse. TAX
ing a lantern he went out to investigate
and saw the dog had cOrnered a gray
animal about his own size. Both were
bristling with fear and rage, but neither
dared to attack the other. The farmer
had no gun. but he ran into the wood
shed and procured a broom with which
he struck at the marauder Thereupon
the wolf, for such IT turned out 10 be,
dashed for the woods with the dog after
1t and came to stand near the foot of
n maple tree.
By this time the wolf was frothing at
the mouth and snarling and swapping
at the shepherd every zine he came
within range. once or twice he nipped
the dog and drew blood. Dixie encour-
aged the shepherd and then boldly
walked around TO the rear of the maple.
This was too much for the wolf. and
in sheer desperation he sprang at the
farmer, who dealt him a telling blow
with the broom. At the same time the
dog tackled the animal IN the rear and
got a good hold on his neck. The next
instant a Inree-cornered fight was on.
The wolf tackled the farmer and dog
by turns. swapping and scratching at
first one and then the other. In the

ten minutes honors were about even.
The wolf could easily have escaped,
but he evidently preferred to fight it
out. and il was nearly twenty minutes
before he was vanquished. When the

was wounded in spots from the tip Of

The average man. observing the canal
situation on the ground in Panama, is
usually strongly impressed with two
things: First that the plan for the canal
across the isthmus along the route Sc
lected is feasible and capable OF execu-
ton within reasonable time; second,
that a substantial bit of the work has
already been done. not only in the prep
aration of plans, but in actual excava-
tons. II is true that this is a strictly
untechnical view, but he car find good
engineers in plenty who confirm his con-
illusions in every respect.

CHILDREN SACRIFICED

Colombian General Put Forty Boys in

At the battle OF Palo Negro. when Cen

reach Bogota. over 1000 men were left
dead upon the field and many terrible
atrocities were enacted One OF the
worst was related by a government Of

home from the fight

bic affair, and we whipped the Liberals

But one thing happened which has dis
gusted me with the whole war. 1 never
want TO see any fighting again.
There was a strong force OF Liberals
ambushed in thick brushwood on the
side OF hill. One Of our generals was
ordered to clear them out, but he could
not locate their exact position. and he
knew that 70 advance bllndly upon them
would mean the loss OF a great many
Of his men.
What &C you think he did? Among
his troops there were abut forty little
boys from ten to fourteen years old. He
picked them out and told them TO march
across the exposed ground toward the
enemy. They had never faced death
before. and were proud to march ahead
Of the rest Before they had gone far
thousands of rihemen opened fire on
them, and every one Of the forty was
killed Then. the enemy having un-
masked their position. our general easily
drove them away. A pit was dug after
the battle and the corpses OF the forty
boys were all thrown into 1t together. -
