not splashed or streaked with blood. Near the center of this greWsOme field, lay the body Of the old gobbler, famous for miles around, and said to be the largest turkey 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 carcass Of this giant bird, which even in death. torn and minus half it's feath- CTS, still looked majestic. That he had been no easy proposition for the wolf, was shown by the evidence of long and bitter struggle. He weighed more than twice as much as the coyote. and had dragged that animal back and forth through the snow for a long dis tance before his strength had depart ed and he had succumbed to the attacks of his persistent little foe. The latter, whom I specially sought, was nowhere to be seen, and though followed. his trail for upwards of two miles, I did not get so much as a glimpse of his gray fur. a
 My next move was to visit the out ragged farmer, and discover to what ex- tent l was indebted to him. I found him discussing the affair with his wife, and by the way they were both smiling. l judged they were more amused than angry. Wherever I have lived and kept ''varmints" to study, have been blessed with most forbearing neighbors and Meriden, N. H., proves no ex- ccption. The owners of the lainented turkey, so far from becoming angry over the affair, laughingly told me all the particulars. They commented on the wolf's good judgment in singling out the finest turkey in the flock, and spoke highly of his persistence in run ming down and5overpowering his swift and weighty antagonist. When we finally came to the question of the damages-a question they seemed in no hurry to thrust into the conversation they admitted that turkeys of that weight and appearance usually sold for $5 at this season. and even offered to hitch up'' and deliver that particular bid rat my door; an offer I gratefully declined.
 As I approached my house, there was a furry of snow, a streak of gray and Romulus lay at, my feet, whining and wagging his tail, as I stopped to 1 pat his, head. He's rather expensive, but pretty good little wolf for all that. ...ss.

AnUEEk AnhERrLON.

Go away from home to get the news. The New York Evening Post says that ''the caucus which chose Morgan G. Bulkeley to be United States Senator from Connecticut represented the cor poration interests of the State rather than those of decent citizens" It is hard for anybody in Connecticut who knows what goes on here to see how the Post could make any such assertion as that. Goodness knows there was poli- tics enough in the contest, but even that feature of it wasn't anywhere near as bad as some of the politics in Con- necticut has been. As for the caucus representing the corporation interests of the State in choosing MT. Bulkeley, We don't suppose senatorial caucus in Connecticut has ever been freer from corporation influence in it's action. It is exactly true that corporation inter- ests were not actively interested in the matter, and there has been no sign that they cared two straws about it. The corporation interests of Connecti- cut are not in politics in the way the Post seems to think. There is cor poration which doubtless took a mild interest in the matter. owing to the fact that it's president was the man of the hour, but nobody here would be absurd enough to intimate that the Aetna helped MT. Bulkeiey much. As for the other corporation interests, they have other fish to fry, if they are doing anything this year. MT. Bulkeley is not the Senator of the corporations, as the Post might think and say New York senator is. He is largely the architect of his own senatorship, and it is con- ceded around here that he made a mighty neat and complete job of it.

BIE,Y OF GITANTANAMo.

Billy, the goat, enlisted at Guantana- mo, Cuba, February 10. 1903 and enter ed upon promising naval career on that date. He was loved by all his shipmates, and owing to his putting ways, became a good friend to all the officers. His record was one to be proud of, as he had been confined in the brig but once. It seems that at Gloucester,
 Mass, he was given shore leave, and returning to the ship late for mess. made his way to the galley and began helping himself to the tin cans. etc., that were carelessly placed within his reach. The several cooks did not like his putting in and placed him on the report for eating out of hours. He was brought to tht mast, his punishment was fixed at three days in the brig on
 bread and water. His behavior had
 been exemplary after that. Upon the arrival Of the Praire at Port Royal,
 s. c. Billy was transferred with about 150 of his shipmates to the comniodious barracks at that place and was all
 lowed to wander about the yard to en-
 joy the sunshine and listen to the song of the moeking bird that never ceases to warble in that glorious cline. Billy seemed in his glory, and would romp
 with the boys, and was never missing at baseball or football game. On the morning of December q, 1904, Billy fail
 ed to muster at quarters. The word was passed by the boatswain's mate, and a search for him began. He was found on the upper floor of the barracks, and appeared to be in great agony. At sick call the surgeon pronounced his illness one that baffied him, but said that with proper attention he would be all right in day or so. When all hands were called the following morning, poor
 Billy lay cold, and it was readily dis cerened that he had eaten his last tin
 can, and that the Prairie was without a mascot" Preparations at once were begun for his burial. Aneat casket was construct ed, tender hands lifted his lifeless
 body into it, the lid was screwed down, while all hands stood by paying their
 last sad tribute to their mascot. Then began the funeral march to the last
 resting place, a mound overlooking the river, and there amid the palmettos
 as three volleys were fired, all stood by silently, while the words, '::ashes to ashes, dust to dust" were spoken in a clear but trembling voice by one of his
 shipmates.-Letter to Army and Navy Journal

REPIsIONiSTN SCARED.

The tariff matter continues to be in teresting. Speaker Cannon is being charged with intimidating members of the house into throwing their influence against revision. The. accusation is made by ardent revisionists, who allege that the Speaker is adopting unfair methods in calling the members of the House before him and demanding their views on the advisability of having a revision of the Dingley law. The re- visionists are not at all pleased with the action of the Speaker. They say that it Is not only decidedly unusual, but that it is unfair and cannot result in developing the real sentiment. They say that the Speakers opposition to an extra session is so we'll known that it can hardly be expected that the timid members will walk into his room and announce that they favor revision. It has been hinted that there will be a general reorganization of the House committees next year and none of the members wants to injure his chances of landing good assignments by openly combating the Speakers wishes.
 And so forth and so on. Probably the fears of the reyisionists that they will lose some of their strength have some foundation. .'-'

NOT 4 YANIsHrSs COMMODITY.

Perhaps there will be gold question by and by. In 1904 the worlds proeuc- tion of gold was ss5e, 915,7 or SaiS4S.Ss9 more than in 1903, of which amount the United States produced $s4,551, 300; Aus tralasia, $S6,7sS,7 ,731: South Africa, $S2,- 554, 4,07S; Canada, ST, 7,4100O0; British In- dia, s11,445,S74; Russia, s22.50O,OOO, and Mexico, s1O,69O,7s2. It will be observed that the output of gold is mostly from Anglo-Saxon mines. Rhodesia produc- ed $4,640,4 ,415, an increase of $574,979; the Transyaal, s77,s1s,e63. an increase of $16,654,9s2, due largely to the introduc- tion of Chinese labor. Of the gold out put of the United States the largest part. was due to Colorado, which pro- duced $26,OOO,00o while California pro- duced $t9OOO,OOO; Alaska, s9,0OO,OOO, and South Dakota. $7,27O,Ooo. Georgia is credited with sss,ooO, Maryland with $2,SoO and Virginia with $500.
 The silver enthusiasts used to call gold vanishing commodity, but they were a little early. It seems to be a coming commodity now.

MOTHER SAVES CHILD FROM

| The residents of the western part of this city were thrown into panic yes terday by the appearance of two large black bears that appeared at the home of M. Sloper. Sloper's home is located just inside the city limits, next to the mountains.
 The heavy snow had driven the bears down in search of food, and Sloper's place was the first to meet their gaze. Mrs. Sloper was at work in the house when suddenly she heard the screams of her little daughter, who was playing in the yard, and rushed out to see what the matter was. She saw the black beasts only a few yards from her child picked the child up and ran into the house, the animals following her up on to the porch.
 Mrs. Sloper quickly telephoned for help, and a posse of men with dogs ar. rived to dispatch the unwelconle visi- tors, but in the meantime the bears had left for the mountains. The search was kept up all day, but the intruders could not be found Ukiah Correspondent ot the Sacramento Bee.

JMpORTA HT, IF 1RUE.

How little people in general may know about things they think they
 know about is indicated by some re- marks by one who has an "expert knowledge of the condition of affairs in Macedonia. This authority holds that the policy of Europe in regard to Macedonia Is based on a fallacy. This consists in the theory that the troubles arise wholly from Turkish maladminis- tration, and that it is possible to re- form the administration locally. The root of the matter, however, he de- clares, lies not in the misgovernment but in the rival ambitions of the popu- lation. He does not pretend that the viiayets are we'll governed but insists that, however well governed they might be by Turkey, they would not be paci- fled. Ever since the. vision held out to the Bulgars in the San Stefano treaty, they have left no stone unturn
 ed to realize the Greater Bulgaria, and the other nationalities oppose this am- bition with all their strength. Nothing will ever reconcile them to remaining quiet under Turkish rule, however per- feet. The nearer it approaches a de- gree of excellence sufficient to content the Powers, the more vigorous will be the efforts to shake it off, and to em. broil the Sultan with Europe. And Flu

WILDCAT JUMPS ON ENGINE.
 While Engineer Ed White and Fire man Harry Ahern were speeding through the Palisade Canos- with a freight train at night they were star tied by a large wildcat landing sudden ly on their engine from a nearby cliff.
 The animal emitted a blood curdling cry as 1t landed and when the dust cleared away they saw the angry beast only few feet away glaring at them
 The two men seized weapons with which to beat off the animal, but it made no show of fight, leaping from the flying train to the ground. It rolled 2 adozen feet before it stopped, but ap- parentiy it was unhurt as 1t scampered away immediately. .-Winnemucca cor respondence Sacramento Bee.

School Superintendent Brooks, of Philadelphia, has started an inquiry to find out what percentage of the boys in the various schools of the city are ad- dicted to the tobacco habit. Speaking of the Investigation, he says: "We try to combine in the schools a moral as well as mental instruction, and it is undoubtedly the case that tobacco is injurious to growing youths. Every principal is supposed to watch out for athe cigarette fiend, and, so far as lies in her power, suppress him. The investi- gation, I think, will substantiate the
 theory that bad moral and weakened mental facilities are attendant upon the cigarette-sfnoking habit.''
