BECAME A DISGRACE TO KIN
Scotch coIIIes Reverted to Wild State
When Imported Into Patagonia
and Argentina.

Some years ago the shepherds of
Patagonia and Argentina imported q
large number Of Scotch Sollies into
those countries to help herd the sheep
But imagination seemed to spoil the
companionable, affectionate and intel
ligent dog from the Highlands. In
two or three years his entire nature
changed and he became independent,
enappish, sly and disobedient. Bad
treatment may have had something
TO do with 1t, but by twos and threes
the collies rapidly deserted the focks
and took to the woods, where they
soon became wild dogs.
They have increased SO fast and
become 80 fierce In both countries
that not only do they carry of small
animals and fowls, but have grown
SO bold that they do not hesitate to
attack travellers even In broad day
light. They travel in packs, and when
hunted scatter to hiding places in
the rocks. The Patagonian and Ar.
gentlne governments have offered
bounties for every wild dogs brush,
and while the war Of determination
may deplete both national treasures
the only effect 1t has had on the col
lies has been to make them keep to
cover during the day. Every shep
herd goes armed and keeps a constant
lookout, but shooting has not de
creased their numbers, and poison has
been tried without success, as they
ere too sbrewd to eat anything set
for them.

WILSON TRUSTS The
COMMON PEOPLE

President-elect Wilson has
demonstrated was recent utterances
that he has an unVarying con-
fidence in the ability of the people
to adjust whatever may be wrong
IN the administration of their
affairs, and that he is going to look
to the n, rather than to ambitious
political leaders, to dictate his con-
duct so far as possible.
''The task ahead of me-" said
he $50 far as making appointments
to off re is wholly hateful, but the
task. so far as leadership of the
United States is full of everything
that is bright and touched with
confidence, because / know that all
you have to do is to appeal to the
people of the United State on the
right ground and put those who are
wrong out of business"
1t would be difficult for the pre-
sident-elect to formulate sentence
that would more pointedly indi-
cate bis determination to be presi-
dent of the whole people and not
of any class or faction, nor even of
any party.
There is no longer question that
he approves the proclaimed deter
mination of congress to take up at
once at the spring session the work
of tariff reduction. He believes
with congress that the relief the
people desired when they elected
him president is to be obtained
largely in that way.
II shall not" said he, Ego slack

MOTHER TURNS ON GAS AND ROCKS
BABE AND HERSELF TO LAST SLEEP

A mother spent all but her last
penny to purchase little white suit
for her baby's funeral, then took her
child upon her knee and rocked him to
sleep while two gas-jets, opened wide,
slowly asphixiated them.
The mother, dead in her chair, and
the child, having squirmed from her
arms, dying upon the floor, were found
late last week by employees who broke
down the door of their room at the
Commercial hotel, Chicago.
There is mystery in the identity of
the woman. She came to the hotel last
Sunday and registered as Mrs. r. CT
Dawson and son of Bellaire. No state
name was given; no luggage was car
ried, there are no tell-tale laundry
marks upon the clothing. Even the
family name may be fictitious.
H. E. Walker, guest at the hotel,
climbed over the transom, threw open
the windows and unbolted the door.
Then the baby was living. Hotel en-
ployes Immediately telephoned police
to send pulmotor but before the ma
chine arrived the child was dead.

hotel, their clothes were all practically
new.
Mrs. Davison's street suit bore the
stamp of clothiers at Seattle, Wash.
Her street shoes also were new. An
other dress probably came from Pitts
burgh. This was the more worn of
several garments.
Police believe the woman and child
must have come recently from Seattle.
The woman, however, registered from
"Bellaire," and there is no postoffice

Baby Dawson" was three years
old, had long golden hair, deep blue
eyes and sunny disposition that in
three days had made him fast friends
among the vaudeville folk and sales
men who frequent the hotel. He glee-
fully boasted that his mama was go
ing to buy him new suit This she
did, but it was for his funeral.
The woman and her boy went to a
store Thursday afternoon. She pur-
chased him white pique suit, white
shoes and stockings. She ordered the
parcel sent collect" to the hotel. When
it arrived she paid the bill, $3.50.
There was penny left when the dead
woman's purse was examined.
The woman was about 35 years old,
slender and of medium height. She
had dark brown hair and gray eyes.
Her face was thin and wan and the

speak except when necessary, believed
she was i'll. Her meals usually consist
