Coming of the Coyote.

From the New York Times.
 For several years coyotes in increasing numbers have been bothering .ranchers of western Washington. Their appearance has caused much surprise, because old timers declare that in the early days these pestiferous animals were entirely un- known in this part of the Cascade noun tains. Investigation recently made by a number of wealthy sheep ranchers dis closed that the coyotes have come into the Puget Sound region through the mi grafton of eastern Washington sheep, which are annually driven in fiocks from the sage-brush plains of central Wash ington into the grazing lands along the summit of the Cascades. The coyotes fol- low the focks and easily wander down the mountain trails to the open grass country lying south of the Puget Sound basin. It is found that in a similar man ner the coyotes have gradually migrated from the Rocky mountain states to the Pacific coast. The Puget Sound coyote Is smaller and more compact than those of the sage-brush country. Instead of hunt ing sheep and other large game. he has degenerated into pifering hen roosts and sometimes robs pantries and outhouses around farms. This has bred in him the cunning and duplicity of the fox. So fertile of expedient is he that one is scarce ever seen by daylight and much less cap tured. His weird howlings chiefly pro- claim his presence.

From the Boston Globe.


 Every country in the midst of des- perate war has a military hero to whom it looks for deeds of valor that will bring ultimate success to it's cause. Russia has eneh military genius in the person of Gen Alexei Nicolaievitch Kouropat- kin her minister of war.
 There Is not another soldier in the cazars empire so competent to manage the immense army as Gen. Kouropatkin. Not long since the cazar made him a present of 100000 roubles $109,00O from his private means as an expression of his Manchurian affairs. The general visited Manchuria a year ago to look after Rus sian interests.
 The cazar realies upon this military commander in his present trials much the same as Lincoln leaned on Gen. Grant It is not a secret that Nicholas

 Why is it that so many pretty girls drift into the telephone business?

Has Brilliant Record.


 Has Brilliant Record.
 There are strong reasons why the Russians should have implicit con- fidence in General Kourapatkin s judgment and skill as a military leader. He has brilliant war record. Although only 53 years old he has seen active was history.
 As boy Nicolaievitch entered the ca- det corps school at St Petersburg and afterwards learned the art of war in the military college. He rose from a lieu tenancy to his present distinguished po- sition through his valor upon the field and has probably more hard-earned deeo- rations than any other officer in the world.
 Kouropatkin was covered with honors for his brilliant services In, the Turkes- tan war In 1866. Out of Turkish horrors and atrocities came the Russian invasion of Turkey in 1s77-S. At this time Russia brought to the Danube 200. GOO men. Kouropatkln was with the famous Slkob- eleff. A brilliant attack was made by the hero of Turkestan with 300 men after an engagement in which Skobeleff's entire staff had been killed. KouropatlSin lost his 300 men, but the Turks were defeated. In this war he gathered material for two literary works he published on Russians was history.
 For five years Kouropatkin was a pro- lessor of military statistics In the acade- emy where he had been a brilliant stud ent and taught the young Russians the ways of war as he had learned them on numerous battlefelds and in many ci- mates. After more fighting under Skobe- Jeff he devoted seven years to the reor- ganization of the great army of Russia, which was the distinguished military evo- lution during the reign of Alexander III. In the past 1t has been truly said that the soldiers under Skobelen of Kouro- patkin would face certain death with se- rene assurance.
 Wounded Many Times.
 This minister of war has been wounded many times. Once 1t was believed he was killed. After one of the bloody fights in the Shipka pass he was left for dead up- on the field. All night he lay there sore wounded and unconscious. It was in the bitter cold of a Balkan night. and he might have frozen to death had he not been almost entirely covered by the body of a dying Turk who had fallen across him. In the morning Kouropat6in re- covered consciousness crawled from un- derneath the Turk and made his way slowly and painfully to the Russian camp, where his comrades received him as If he were a ghost He became the hero of the army.
 This famous military genius is of noble lineage, his family running back through the house of Dogorouk i'd the czars of Moscow. He has the key to the heaviest war chest in the world and Is intensly loyal to his country.
 Military strategists may write what the Russian army will probably do in the east, but KouropatSin alone knows what the war plans are, and without inter- ference by any one he will execute them to the best of his ability.

To Seek Estate In Court.

As soon as she is liberated they have planned to come to America to try to regain their property In Virginia The baroness owned large tracts of land in that state, but lost it. She was just be- ginning suit to recover when Mrs May brick, who was the principal witness, was arrested and convicted, and so was de- barred from testifying Nothing could then be done, but as soon as the daughter IS free to return to this country the case will be re-opened.
 Her long and untiring work for Mrs. Maybrick's release has well nigh ex- nausted all the baroness resources, so that lack of means is now a serious ob- stacle In her way. But as the property she expects to regain amounts to two millions of dollars it is hoped that the friends interested in these two women will not allow the want of funds to pre- vent her seeking to recover the estate.

 To quote again from the letter of the baroness. she says: q find it a peculiar thing that however sympathetic people may be for her wrongs and indignant at the injustice and her long suffering, 1t is peculiar part that 1t seems impossible to forget it; once anyone has touched it 1t becomes a sort of madness.
