 What then?' said I.
 His face turned very sober. He pursed his lips. and spat across the ditch: then gave his mouth a wipe and glanced thoughtfully at the sky.
 Fer liberty" said he, with decision. Same thing my father died fer
 Not to this day have forgotten il. the answer of old D'ri. or the look of him as he spoke. I was only reckless youth fighting for the love of peril and adventure, and with too little thought of the high purposes of my country The causes of the war were familiar to me; that proclamation Of Mir. Madi- son had been discussed freely in our home. and I had felt some share in the indignation of D'ri and my father This feeling had not been allayed by the bloody scenes in which I had had part. Now began to feel the great passion of the people. and was put to shame for moment
 'Liberty-that is a grand thing to fight for" said I. after brief pause.
 Swap my blood any time fer thet air" said D'ri. '1 can fight sassy. but not fer no king but God Almighty. Don't pay [ git all tore up less # s fer suthin' purity middlin' vallyble. My life ain't wuth much. but ye see, ! hain't nuthin' else"
 We rode awhile Tn sober thought. hearing only sough of the wind above and the rUstling hoof-beat of our horses in the rich harvest of the au- tuTHn woods. We were walking slow ly over stretch Of bare moss when. ar a sharp turn. we came suddenly in sight of a huge bear that sat facing us. drew my pistol as We pulled rein firing quickly. The bear ran away into the brush as I fired another shot
 He s hit" said D'ri. leaping of and bidding mo hold the bit Then. with a long stride. he ran after the fleeing hear. had been waiting near half an hour when D'ri came hack slowly. with downhearted look.

 He took a fresh chew of tobacco and mounted his horse.

 There was no betts- bear-hunter in the north woods than D-ri- and to los. hear was. for him no Night affiiciion-

Hldue Ho answer.
 Might jest es well spit 'n is face" hs added presently; jest eggzacly."
 This apt and forceful advice calmed a lingering sense of duty. and he rode on awhile In silehce. The woods were glooming in the early dusk when he spoke again. Something revived his contempt of my education. He had been trailing after me. ans suddenly felt his knee.
 Tell ye this. Ray" said he. in a kindly tone. Elf ye wan [ git hear got t' mux i'm up leetle for'ard- right up n the neigh borhood uv is !o'c'sle. Don't dew DO good t shuts Is hams. Might es we'll try t choke i'm t death by pinchin is tail"
 We were out in the open. Roofs and smoking chimneys were silhouet- ted on the sky. and. halfway up hill, We could see the candle-lights of the red tavern. There. in the bar, before blazing logs in great fireplace. for the evening had come chilly. table was laid for Ills. and we sat down with hearty happiness to tankards of old ale and smoking haunch. I have never drunk or eaten with better relish There were half dozen or so sitting ahout the bar. and all ears were for news of the army and all hands for our help. If we asked for more potatoes or ale, half of them rose to proclaim it. Between pipes of Vir- ginia tobacco. and old sledse. and songs of love and daring. we had a memorable night. When we went to our room. near l2 o'clock. told D'ri of our dear friends. who. all day. had been much in my thought. "Wus the letter writ by herr" he in- quired
 Not a doubt of it."

 But I think they made me miss the bear" I answered.

.ROMULUS, PIT WOLF.
\ MIsCHIEVOUS BUT VERY EN.
 GAGING ANIMAL FRIEND.
4 Neighbor Dog Leads Him Astray- He Meets a Prize Gobbler and the Doughty Bird Falls
 in Battle.

up lO DcCcIuucT ol, 1SVf, Aeouu~ lus," my tame prairie wolf, stood upon a pinnacle of virtue. Not that he was what you would call extremely ''saintly," for he had spells of mischievousness which were trying to those about him. and during which he would nip the bear, and pull tufts of haE out of the deer, or run off into the woods with his masters cap or gloves. It has even been recorded that he once tore the trousers of a certain gentleman from the city, but in that case the cir cumstances justified severe methods. But the property of my farmer neigh bors he had never interfered with.
 But, alas for his character, one of my neighbors had a dog, whose hide was black, and whose reputation was blacker. He had no regular occupa- tion, and hung around our house a large part of his time, trying to scrape acquaintance with the animals. Most of them would have nothing to do with him, but the coyote was friendly lit tie fellow, and after a day or two be- gan to rub noses with rne dog. The latter was much older than Romulus. and his influence upon the young wolf was very marked from the first. They romped about for day or two, and then one afternoon they were seen walking away down the road together ss nearly ar1n.rn-arm as two Iour- foots can walk. That evening Romu- Jus did not appear at supper, and, for the first time in his life, he was liter ally "out all night" Next morning he came back, still in company with the black dog. His manner had already changed for the worse; he did not want to be caught, and finally, when we did catch him, he was very irri- table, and tried his level best to bite. We kept him in day ur two, but on New Years eve we relented and"once more set him at liberty.
 He was nightly pleased. and showed his gratitude by following us about. and at every opportunity throwing himself on his back, that we might come up and caress him. But in the afternoon he sauntered off, met the black dog some
 where down the road, and again failed to answer tattoo roll call Next morn- ing early, a farmer drove up to the door in sleigh. Some one suggested that he had come to wish us happy New Year, but this proved to be mis- take. He had come to inform me that my wolf had, in the cold gray dawn, attacked his flock of turkeys, and had killed the biggest gobbler in the bunch. The family had attempted to drive him of by setting the dogs on him, but the wolf wagged his tail and refused to run, and the dogs simply turned round and played with him. It would have been easy enough to shoot him. but tbere was no desire to he unneighborly. Hastily strapping on pair of snow-shoes, hurried of across lots to the scene of the tragedy. It was something over a mile from my house. in a swamp, and there saw sight which recalled de-

EXAMPLES ALL TRADITIONS
Kansas Attorney Addresses Judges
 of Supreme Court as "You k. Fellows"

Washington.-With characteristic. ally breezy eloquence, A. E. Crane, of Kansas, completely upset the solemn. ity of the United States supreme court by injecting into the argument some of the ginger" and "snap" peculiar to his western training and practice !. Dignity gave way to amusement and surprise when the black robed justices were assured that you fellows must realize the importance of this deci. sion." In the easy, go-as-you-pleass presentation of his case, MT. Crane in- tended not the slightest disrespect, nor was there any disposition on the part of the court to regard it in such light; but he ruthlessly trampled on all tho time-honored traditions and actually conveyed the idea that he was not afraid to speak out in meeting"
 The case involved an application for a writ of habeas corpus Mr. Cranes client had been convicted of selling liquor to an Indian and was in jail for his crime He was naturally anxious to get out, and his attorney, in order to accomplish the desired end, brought out legal points that had never before commanded the attention of the court.
 Justice Harlan took a hand in tho proceedings by asking. so that 1t could be heard throughout the chamber, if "a man could not be a citizen of the United States without being citizen of any state" and was promptly in- formed that it was impossible, ac- cording to decisions of the supreme court of the United States

scriptiOns of the battle of Liaoyang. For more than an acre the snow was strewn with feathers. and there was scarcely a square yard in all that space which was not splashed or streaked with blood. Near the center of this grewsome field lay the body of an old gobbler. famous for miles around. and said to be the largest tur- key in Sullivan county, N. H. The wolf had evidently made a full meal. but all he had been able to eat had made but little impression on the car cass of this giant bird. which even in death. torn and minus half its feathers, still looked majestic. The wolf. whom I especially sought. was nowhere to be seen. and though followed his trail for upwards of two miles. did not get 70 much as a glimpse of his gray fur.
 My next move was to visit the out ragged farmer. and discover to what ex- tent I was indebted to him. found him discussing the affair with his wife. and by the way they were both smiling I judged they were more amused than angry. When we finally came to the question of the damages a question they seemed in no hurry to thrust into the conversation-they ad- mitfed that turkeys of that weight and appearance usually sold for five dollars at this season. and even offered to hitch up" and deliver that particular bird at my door: an offer I gratefully ,ieeiined.
 As I approached my house. there was a furry of snow. a streak of gray. and Romulus lay at my feet. whining and wasging his tsil. as I stopped to pat his lead He's rather expensive but . pretty good little wolf for all that
