Daring Timber Wolf
Bars Public Highway
Unlike Usual Animal Of His Species,
He Makes Bold Stand When Ap-
preached by Man.

ONTONAGoN, MICH, June IA
Somewhere in the woods between the
village OF Ontonagon and the Nor
witch mine there is a curious timber
wolf.
He was espied by John Ferguson
This wolf is curious because, unlike
others of his specie, he presents a
bold front. Ferguson was walking to
town from the mine. He saw a woh
in the road Contrary to the usual
procedure, the beast stood its ground
as the man approached. Ferguson
procured a club. The wolf waited
until the man was but a short dis
lance away and then It leisurely re-
treated a few yards into the woods
The animal watched Ferguson as he
passed, after which II returned 20 the
road and followed the walker closely
for a mile or more.

WRITES PASTOR
KISSEDHERONE
NOT 40 TIMES
St, Louis Woman Says She
Thought Minister Was About to
Pray Instead Of Caress.

ST. LOUIS. June 14.-Mrs. Theo-
dore J. Ferguson, Of No. 1925 Walton
Avenue, has now come forward with
her version OF the kiss that made st.
Louis famous and brought under In
vestigation the Rev. Charles M.
Rauch, pastor Of tho Cote Brilliante
Presbyterian Church.
The board of trustees of the church
exonerated Pastor Rauch. and Mrs.
Ferguson thought this was out Of
order.
Wept Over ExoneratIon.
Mrs. Ferguson thus tells the story
of the kiss:
II am not OF a vengeful spirit and
dislike very much having this at
fair resurrscted. But almost cried
my eyes out when read that Pastor
Rauch had been exonerated by me
and my husband and the trustees.
Il have forgiven him. but 1 have
never said a word indicating that
he was not wholly to blame for what
AS uAus MS AiASHuS dTo lHStuudAAAB
that encouraged him to kiss me.
That is extremely unfair. as Pastor
Ranch himself knows It is false.
Il regret tho report that the min
lister kissed me 40 times. He kissed
me but once. 1t was in his study
and never returned there alone.
I'VE we're alone in his study and
when we had finished our consulta-
ton he arose from his desk and ap-
preached me. thought he was go
ing to suggest that we offer up q
prayer in behalf Of our duties, but
instead he kissed me on the brow.
Pastor Then Apolodized.
II was SO astonished that I could
not speak. I must have bluBhed. and
when / began to stammer out a re-
buke Pastor Rauch apologized l
would have permitted the matter TO
drop there, but II worried me so that
I told my husband.
He wanted TO go to the minister
at once, but l prevailed upon him 10
remain calm, and that is why he did
not report the affair to the elders
for several weeks.
II have a husband who is good as
gold and two OF the best little chill
| 1ren on earth. Why should I encour-
age Pastor RauGh TO kiss me? His
| friends ought TO be ashamed of them
| selves"
