dog after it, and came to a stand near the foot Of a maple tree.
 By this time the wolf was frothing at the mouth and snariing and snapping at the dog every time he came within range Once or twice he nipped the dog and drew blood. MT. Dike encouraged the shepherd and then walked around to the rear Of the maple.
 This was too much for the wols and, in sheer desperation. he sprang at the farmer. who dealt him a telling blow with the broomstick. At the same time the dog attacked the animal in the rear and got good hold on his neck. The next instant a three-cornered fight was on. The wolf tackled the farmer and dog by turns, snapping and scratch ing at first one and then the other In the meantime the dog and the broom stick got in some lively work and at the end oS ten minutes honors were about even.
 The wolf could easily have escaped, but he evidently preferred to fight it out, and it was nearly twenty minutes be- fore he was vanquished. When the wolf was dead MT Dike found he was scratched in several places andthat the dog was wounded in spots from the tip of his nose to the end of his tail.-Ex- change.

SILK MACHINERY.
American Invention That May Revolu-
 tionize an Industry.

American Invention That May Eevolu-
 tionize an Industry.
 A machine for spinning. doubling and twisting has been invented and recently perfected by Francis Seymour. of Pat erson, N. J., who has been. engaged on the work for several years. It is the intention of Mir Seymour to organize a company in the near future to market the new device, which is fully covered by patents protecting the machine in both America and Europe.
 A representative of the Journal re- gently saw the machine in operation and sample of organzine was made by the inventor on the machine, running at the rate of sixteen thousand revolutions minute. While this was being done MT. Seymour chatted in a most inter esting way in regard to the possibilities of his invention. saying:
 Throwing methods in general employ a flyer or ring traveller in the twisting operation. These troublesome devices Handicap the operation, as their use compels a delicate thread to carry a heavy load, and limit to speed is soon reached where the weight of either flyer or ring traveller will cause the thread to break. When ring spindle is running at eight thousand revolutions minute the thread has to carry the traveller over forty thousand inches around the cir conference of the ring. The use, there fore, of either flyer or ring traveller renders high speed impossible.
 In my machine all this is changed; you win notice that the thread carries nothing but itself: as a result, my only limitation in the speed at which spin dle can be driven. I have already made organzine on this machine at twenty five thousand revolutions a minute. which is three times as rapid as a ring traveller can safely be driven. l will be satisfied in general use, however, to run twice as fast as the ring traveller.
 T am preparing to organize compa- ny to use my invention on large scale; instead of selling machines to the trade, l will invite the trade to come into my company. As soon as my foreign pa tents are in my possession l will issue q prospectus. It is my intention to To- cate the business wherever I can make the best arrangements.
 Perhaps the most important advan- tage of my machine is the fact that by the omission of certain parts and by the substitution of othe parts, tram, twist, crepe or any of the other threads can be made. will be glad to show my machine in operation to any of your friends or to any one in the trade.

WOMEN TUNE PIANOS.

Indiana School Graduates are Experts
 in Correcting Instruments Tone
 Many young women earn a livelihood by tuning pianos. Six have graduated from school located in Indiana. The school is operated the year around and has already turned out upward of two hundred men and women tuners. This class of instruction originated there. and has drawn students from almost every state in the Union
 Men of advanced age have applied to the school for instruction in this calling, and some of them have become clever workers A minister whose health seemed about to aiI him learned to tune instruments and is now following the business in preference to the calling of clergyman. A county treasurer, now in office, but who may not be elected again, has taken course and is now able to bring an instrument up to con- cert pitch.
 It requires hundred lessons and as many dollars for instruction to fit a man or woman for the business. It is not necessary for the pupil to be musi- cally inclined. He need not be a per former on the piano at all. but he must have good natural ear.
 The construction of the various makes of pianos is explained, the instruments being taken apart and put together again that the pupil may understand the mechanism. There are twenty-five pianos in the school, all of them dating back a quarter of century or more.
 Some pupils fail to learn the art and are told that they do not possess the re- quired ear qualities. An apt pupil may take two or three lessons a day. He may take the whole hundred in seven weeks. Some of them learn the art in five
 At times the whole school takes the train for Chicago to visit piano fac- tory in body. The factories are glad to have them do so. Here the different movements are studied, as in every de- tail of the work of building an instru- ment. Some of the factories have pre- scented the school with movement, and many lessons are afforded by the use of this single piece alone.
 Teaching tuners is destructively wear ing on piano. It must be thrown out of tune so much that the screws are worn and twisted off.-Chicago Tribune.

The Only Wolf Killed in Vermont il
 Fifty Years.

The skin of the only gray wolf killed in the state of Vermont in fifty years, according to the remembrance of the oldest inhabitant, was brought into the village of Starksboro the last week in December 1903, by David Dike, a far mer, who killed the animal in a patch of woods near his barn after a severe fight, in which MT. Dike and dog were badly used up!
 Mr. Dike 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. Talk ing a lantern, he went out to investi- gate and saw the dog had cornered a gray animal about his own size. Both were bristling with fear and rage, but neither dare attack the other. The far mer had no gun, but he ran into the woodshed and procured broom handle, with which he struck at the marauder. Thereupon the wolf, for such it turned out to be, dashed for the woods with the
