DOGS ANCESTRY A PUZZLE
NaturaIists by No Means Agreed as to
How the Present Favorite of Man
Really Has Descended.

Naturalists and the world at large
seem to generally accept the theory
that the domestic dog is, in some
sense. a collateral descendant of the
wolf or jackal. says Harper's Weekly
A professor In the Natural History
museum OF Paris has communicated
results of his study OF various canine
skulls to the Academy of Sciences.
He appears to have noticed certain
peculiarities OF growth which have
hitherto escaped biologists.
He states that the skull of almost
every species of wolf and jacket differs
from the skull OF the shepherd dog to
an extent that makes X impossible
that this dog should belong in the
same classification. The skull OF the
Indian wolf. on the contrary, shows
some points OF resemblance. This, In
deed. is the only savage canine the
top of whose head projects like tnat
Of our dog.
There are. moreover. other charae-
teristics which the Indian wolf has IN
common with the dog. and which the
ordinary wolf does not share with
them. although his origin and that OF
the dog have long been supposed to be
a common one.
The conclusion OF this scientist is
that the InSian wolf is the progenitor
of the shepherd dog and the blood
hound. There were Two primitive

Superior.-In a bloody gun fight, Pa

for threatening woman with razor.
Huber took the razor from the man
and was marching his prisoner to the

companions following, three with
drawn reviewers.
They opened fire as Huber turned
around He quickly showed his pris-

shot. The italians and patrolman con-

CHAPTER III.

AS Judge Gilbert was about to en-
ter his front door, having accom-
panied Mr.. Kendall as far as the gate,
he saw q carriage stop in front OF the
house. The man who got out and
came Up the walk he recognized in
stantiy None the less he did not walk
like the David Kerr OF yesterday; ne
seemed in every motion as he came
into the light cast by the porch lamp
hence. Realizing that only something
unusual could bring the master OF
Locust Lawn out at night, and to his
house, too, the lawyer went down the
porch steps to meet his visitor.
Good evening, Mr. Kerr" Was Gil
bert's greeting. This is an unexpect'
ed pleasure
Evening. Amos. Can | see you
alone? don't want to be interrupted.
We can go into the library No
one will disturb us there
To this Kerr made no reply. He
toiled heavily up the steps and into
the house Giloert's surprise increased
on finding. when his visitor removed
his oyercoat, that he had on evening
clothes. 1t was more an intuitive feel
ing than observation which made Gill
bert understand how uncomfortable
the boss found his unaccustomed raj
ment
As Kerr walked through the hall
and into the library. his own thoughts
did not weigh so heavily upon him as
60 prevent him from satisfying his
curiosity by gazing about him. 1t
was the first time in his fife that he
had ever set foot in Gilbert's house.
The invitation had been extended
many times, but Kerr knew his social
limitations and had always refused.
The Judge pushed forward big
leather chair and into it Kerr dropped
without q word His hands rested
ustlessiy on the arms OF his chair. the
bulged out of his waistcoat, his
breath came heavy and fast, and he
gazed duly at the fire in the CRATE.
Gilbert had never seen him in such
o condition before Until now he had
always been the man of iron. accept
Ing his many triumphs and his few
minor defeats in the same imperturb-
able manner.
Il tried to get you by telephone
several times today" Gilbert began.
Il know it, but wasn't in the mood
for nothin'" The very tone in which
he spoke betrayed that fact
Il promised Kendall I'd call you up
in regard to the new franchise he's
anxious for you to support"
"That'll keep"
Il told him that personally / could
aot be interested"
This drew no answer from the boss.
Gilbert made no further attempt at
making conversation and for a time
the two men sat in silence. When
Kerr launched his first question it
seemed apropos OF nothing
How long you been in Belmont,
Amos?"
Gilbert's brain went through Sc
rieE OF rapid thought transitions in
