advocates believe they will bring about the absolute

are foolish. These things have been used since man
learned the art of making them and they will continue

and carouse SO long will it be bitterly opposed by the
more law abiding citizens. When the saloon business
is run as business and business principles and not
as stigma and stencil on the community then and
not until then will the engaged in that business be
permitted to conduct their places with any degree of
peace of mind.

that there were seventy ynchngs in the United States

1904 By states the ynchings are classified as follows:

became common only black folks lynched but out
of the seventy ynched eleven white folks are numbered

dcatve of the fact that the awless spirit is becoming
more prevalent and WILL later develop into

A FAMILY ROW.
rs proII Ending After the Poet Shelley
Had Interfered.

In his "Rossctti Papers William
Rossctti saws that when Shelley was
stavjnc in the villa of the GisborncS
a most droIl incident occurred. 1t
appears that his servants, Giuseppe
and Annunziata, who were man and
wife, ovurrcled, and Shelley, hear
ing Giuseppe abusing his wife very
sayagelv and also i'll using her, rush
ed upon him with a pistol, shout
ing: I'll shoot you! I'll shoot
you!" The startled fellow a for
his very life, Shelley after him, til.
the servant, coming to a shrubbcry
of IaurcIs. managed to slip under
them. Shelley, in his eagerness,
darting past him. The servant in a
few minutes found it possible to
dodge back into the house upper
ceived. Shelley, seeing him no
more. at last went back to the
house. where, to his unutterabIe
surprise, he found Giuseppe and
Annunziata sitting together in the
most amicabIe manner, addressing
each other as "caro" and "carissi-
ma" But were you not ~quarreling
even now" exclaimed the perplex-
ed poet. "Quarreling!" gasped Giu-
seppe in amazement. NO, signor;
We never ~quarreled." "But I have
been running after you in order to
shoot YOU" "ENo, signor;; you never
ran after me, for l have been sit
ting here for the last hour or more.
You must have fancied all this"
And Giuseppe and Annunziata, who
had both been considerably fright
ened, continuing to assuresh him that
they had had no quarrel, and, Mary
Shelley, whom they had let into the
secret, saying the same, Shelley was
at last utterly mystiied and inclin-
ed himself to believe that he must
have fancied it.

A Check on Counterfeitina.

Our government prints its cur
rency and numbers its bills in a Sc
ries of four, so that every piece of
paper money turned out bears one
of the check letters, A, B, G, D.
One of these letters is always in the
upper left hand corner and in the
lower right hand corner. The plac-
ing of the letter on the bill is deter
mined by this rule: Divide the last
two figures on the note by four.
Should the remainder be one the
check number must be A; should
it be two the check letter is B;
three, the check letter is G, and
nothing, the letter D. Should this
rule of four fail to work on any
purported United States currency
note one may safely wager all he
has that the note is bad. This rule
applies only to United States cur
rency and not to national bank
notes. -Philadelphia Record.

An Eccentric Definition.

Eminent lawyers are frequently
amazingly ignorant on all subjects
other than law. A good story is
told of a judge who once interrupt
ed a well known patent counsel: 81
m sorry to stop you; but, while I
understand the term eccentric
when applied to persons, I must
confess that | am quite at a loss to
appreciate its meaning when APP
piled to things" The learned coun-
sci looked a little puzzled for a mo-
ment and then, amid considerable
merriment evoked by his reply, said,
can eccentric, my lord, is a circle
whose center is not in the center"
And a precious good rough and
ready definition too.-Law Notes.

A. r. NILES
CAPE HUNTING DOGS.
A Terror to African Game and the
Despair of Sportsmen.

Despair Of Sportsmen.
Hunting where and in whatever
country he likes, without leave or
license, the Cape hunting dog is not
only a terror to many kinds of At
rican game, but the despair of
sportsmen generally. Once afoot
with his game, says Baily's Maya
zine, a kill becomes almost an abso-
Lutte certainty. He needs no help.
He stands twenty-five to twenty
seven inches high, with good gallop-
ing quarters, rather long but very
muscular legs, with strong feet and
toes. The ears are very large and
erect, beautifully formed to catch
the faintest sound when working in
thick ~coverts. Added to this he
has a very keen sense of smell.
The jaws are wonderfully strong,
with beautiful white teeth. They
can break bones which few animals
except the hyena could crack, and
the strength of the latter's jaws is
%proverbial.
Their mode of hunting is very
clever. Having found and started
a buck, some of the feetest dogs
gallop forward ahead of the main
pack, keeping on either side to pre-
vent the buck turning and doubling
back. AS these dogs tire they fall
back, and others take up the run
ming in their place. When the quar-
ry tires the pack closes in, and all
their energy is devoted to killing by
tearing out the ~viscera.
Some writer's say the pack takes
the form of a crescent when run
ming their prey, gradually closing
in as the game tires. All agree that
the short time taken in running
down a buck is simply marvellous, a
quarter of an hour being the esti-
mated time in hunting, killing and
consuming a buck under ordinary
circumstances.
The wild dog is not at all fastid-
ious as to what food he shall take,
but he levies toll on any sort of
buck or antelope he finds handy.
Gnu, sable and waterbuck are said
to be his favorites, but he has
been known to pull down a buffalo
when pressed for food. Needless to
say, when attacking a powerful ami
NAL like this some of the dogs meet
with a sudden death, and these are
consumed by the surviving mem
bers. They always eel ravenous
for food and their appetites nearly
Unsuitable. There is no record of
their having attacked a white man.
