WOLVES INCREASING IN NUMBER
Large Amounts still Paid by Western
States In Bountles.

The wolf Is moro dreaded of hui
manity than any other animal. No
doubt we OF to-day inherit that dread
from ancestors who had occasion to
fear the long-fanged Quadruped, for
there are few portions Of the world
to-day where the wolf is really dan
gerous to mankind.
Dangerous to mans pocket, to his
herds and focks, he is still to-day In
many portions of the country. A
ranch In Montana Or New Mexico
may pay many hundreds OF dollars
year for gray wolf scalps. Such a
scalp is cheap at $12 or SIS to the
rancher, for the gray robher would
certainly have destroyed many times.
that value in calves or colts from
the range. Yet in spite Of all the
warfare made upon them, and all the
prices put upon their heads, these
dreaded, mysterious, ghostlike, terror
inspiring creatures still hold their
own. Outcasts for ages, hated, per
secuted, they still endure, each for
himself, and without friend OIL
earth, even among his own kind.
Last year the State Of Minnesota
paid over $4,000 q month in the best
Of the wolf season. One day Of tho
month CT last March the State Au-
ditcr paid $G,15S.j0 in wolf bounties.
The total for the few months precad-
ing was $3G,54S.50. On tis basis tie
current year will foot up nearly as
much as the two years preceding,
which appears to indicate that Broth
er Wolf is holding his own, even as
a matthr of commerce In many
parts Of the Western cattle range
the gray wolves are increasing rather
than decreasing and Stream.

American Tourist Calls Attention to
Railway Gang at Prayer.

American Tourist Calls Attention to
Railway Gang at Prayer.
L have often remarked the fcrvor
OF tho Mchammedans, says jerome
Hart in tho ArgOnaut. Their strict
attention to their religious rites IS
unique among denominations, so far
as my observation goes, for when the
hour CT prayer comes, whether they
find themselves in public or not, they
so through their dcyotions. ad-
mirc a man VINO has the courage Of
his convictions, religious as well as
political, and the unaffected devotion
of the MOhammedans has always i'm
pressed me.
On the outskirts OF Cairo one day
wo saw n row OF workmen on the
railway lining up just as the muez-
zin's call to prayers rang out from
an adjacent mosque.
Look" cried |. There is another
instance of Moslsms' devotion to CfIcir
religious rites"
How so?" was asked. What 90
you mean? What are they Standing
in row for?"
ITO pray" replied, sententiously.
Don't you see they are facing toward
Mecca"
Now they were all standing in a
row. As | spoke-as if at a given
signal-they all went down.
'See!" cried. They arc prostrat-
ing themselves. In moment you will
see them begin to bow toward the sa-
cred city and go through all the elab.
Oratc forms or MohammSdan prayer
All, is it not interesting TO see a
group Of ordinary workmen interrupt
their toll in the middle OF the day
and turn TO their rel!gion?"
We were ali much impressed was
particularly so.
But as We ga2cd on them with re-
asx religious interest, the row of men
arose. With unanimous grunt they
rose, bearing on their shoulders a
long steel beam, which they proceed
cd to walk away with down the rail
way track
An awkward silence followed i'm
agined heard faint snickering, but
/ affected not to observe It. There are
moments when It is jus, rs well not tc
be too observing.

MODERN JAPANESE CIR, @.
Have Entirely Adopted Occidental
Education Methods.

In an article in the Far East, Nine.
Ocnlda, wife OF the Japanese Consul
General in New York, tells of the
Japanese women as they were and
are. She says:
In our mothers generation the
girls were taught simply to become
good wives to their husbands and
good mothers to their children; there,
fore they were educated to be mod
est, obedient and capable OF control
ing themselves. They are taught
also how to keep house, how 10 sew,
how to read and writo, how TO ar
range flowers, how to make and servo
tea, and very often they also studied
music and literature, but they receiv-
ed no school education such as they
receive now.
Girls of the present time nj! re-
ceiVe modern school education. Jap-
anese ladies in 1904 are not content.
ed merely to stay at home and take
care or their children. They attend
lectures, meetings and entertain.
ments. They publish women's maya
zines and discuss their rights and du-
ties.
Il think there is no girl now in
Japan who cannot write her own
name, for the parents are compelled
by law to send their girls as well
as their boys to schoo, when they
reach the ago OF six. In the prl,
mary school girls receive the same
education as boys, with tho additional
study Of sewing, After they grad
uato from the primary school many
girls attend the high school.
"a fact that might interest Amer
lean readers IS that the women in
Japan never get stout when they
Grow old, although they take hardly
any exercise.
Young men and women whiie thcv
are in school or college take much
outdoor exercise. but as soon as they
leave school they give 1t up. Tennis
is a popular gamo among young la.
dies"

DEPENDED ON LIGHTNING
All Electric Lights wsrs Out and
People had Hard Time,

If this is what is termed better ser
vice. in the way Of electric lights, We
would prefer to go back to the former
service, bad as 1t was. Wednesday even
ing those who iwere compelled to go out,
or who were caught out In the storm,
were compelled also 70 depend on the
vivid flashes of lightning to see where
they were going; and at times, before
they knew it, they were stepping down
into the water rushing madly down the
gutter into the sewer basins. Not d
street light was burning during the even
ing. Near midnight some ..of the lights
started up, but again on the corner Of
Broadway and Bordentown avenue, the
light staid out and a trolley car had quite
a time getting its trolley Ia the darkness
and was delayed some time. The curve
at hat corner is a bad one always catch
ing the sand when 1t rains. It Is up to

THE TROLLEY SERVICE.


The conductors and motormen of the
trolley cars are not noted for politeness,
or for helping passengers on or off, as has
been published before in the News. A
gentleman says he saw an elderly lady .
little slow OF course in her movements,
getting off Of car No. 80, and heard the
motorman holler to her In anything but a
gentlemanly manner, trying to make her
hurry Only a few days ago some par
ties running to catch a car were verynear
to 1t when 1t stopped ON the corner of
Broadway and Bordentown avenue, when
the conductor fairly yelled to them to
hurry up. A party said at the time 1t
showed such a lack of sense, for they
couldn't have hurried more than they
we're doing at the time and he knew it.

New York Herald Tells Of a South
Amhoy Girl Who Ran Away
from Home.

The New York Herald prints the
following story. The News CORES
pendent has failed TO find any persons
in South Amboy by the name given
and can learn of nothing to verify the
article: Ann Kronmeier. n recruit to
the ranks OF the Volunteers of Ameri-
on in Jersey City, was arrested last
night while taking part in the services
at the Headquarters in Montgomery
street. The complainant against her
was her father. August Kronmeier. Of
South Amboy, who charged her with
smbezzlement. Twice before within
Ia week she Ind boon arrested on
similar charges made by her father,
and on each occasion she was dis
charged.
70 Chief of Police Benjamin Mur-
ply she said her arrests were only
part of q religious persecution to which
she was being subjected by her pnr-
ants. She enlisted the sympathy of
tho police, and a justice of the peace
was called to police headquarters. A
bond sman was present and furnished
at once the bail asked by the magis-
trate pending action on the case bv
the Grand Jury OF Middlesex county.
According to the girls story she has
been so moved by the religious fervor
OF tile Volunteers of America that she
had begged her parents to let her
identify herself with the Volunteers.
They are Catholics and were much
distressed at her request. They
brought to bear every influence they
could to dissuade her. She hesitatsd
a long time, she said, and then had
told them she must c as her con
science dictated. Her father threat
ned to disown her. She sought her
Bible for consolation and opened II
By chance at the>verse reading Leave
thy father and thy mother and come
unto Me-"
She thought it right to act on this,
and going to Jersey City, enlisted
with the Volunteers. There, her
father found her on Wednesday and
had her arrested. She being under
age, he charged her with running
tway from home. -
Judge Higgins, before whom she
was taken, advised her to 20 home
with her father. She obeyed, but
ran away again that night. Her
father obtained q warrant. caused her
arrest again on Thursday and she was
again discharged by Judge Higgins,
this time without recommendation,
and she went back to. her friends, the
Volunteers.
In the warrant obtained by her
father yesterday she was accused OF
retaining % rent collected for hei
father in March last. In answer to
this charge the girl said it was true
she had used the money, but with the
full knowledge and consent of her
father.
Justice of the Peace John Marley
fixed baiI at 500, which was furnished
by John Hill, of Jersey City.
Miss Kronmeior was escorted from
police headquarters by "a captain and
several privates of the Volunteers.
