Burglar or Ghost.

An awful scare was experienced
by Robert Vauk and his wife and
Miss Laura Piroutek and Miss
Ludmila Ross who are staying at
their home, last Friday after mid
night when they were aroused
from their slumber by a suspicious
noise coming from the cellar. Be-
ing under the impression that a
window had been left open and
caused the noise, Miss Ross was
sent down to close it when to her
modification she spied the figure
of a man who made good his es-
cape when she screamed at the top
of her voice. In the meantime
the others, having a presentiment
that the noise might have been
by "a burglar, became thoroly fright
ened and Mr.. Vauk fired two shots
from his revolver to arouse the
neighborhood. Several neighbors
thereupon appeared on the scene
and altho a diligent search of the
house had been made the night
intruder had not been found. The
neighbors advanced the theory
that perhaps they were unduly
frightened by a perfectly harmless
noise in the cellar, but Miss Ross
claims that she plainly saw the
man. 1t is possible that an at
tempt at robbery was made and
and as a result the four occupants
of the dwelling are in constant
fear of a REPETITION. Their dog as
also the dogs of old gent Vauk,
who lives next door at the same
time growled and barked, which
fact would seem to uphold their
contention. Be it as it may q
close watch is kept of nights for
future developements., and woe to
the night prowler who may at.
tempt once more to enter the
house. .....

A Merry Wolf Hunt.

! An expedition of about 25 local
sharpshooters was organized on
short notice last Friday afternoon
when Jos. Merkvan hailed in town
and gave out the inform alton that
about six or seven cayotes and
two timber wolves made their rem
devouz on an old straw stack on
his farm, one half mile east of
town and that a pack of them had
been seen there for several days
Tive hunting expedition left town
in two parties on sleds and the
stra. tagem was that one wing was
TO $, read and attack from the
south while the other wing was to
close ,,n the enemy from the
north. This excellent plan was
followed nut to the letter snd both
wings ap preached the enemy's
stronghold from all sides, elimlna'
ting all possible chance of escape
From a distance the pack was seen

but disappointment was due upon
closer observation. The forms
running to and fro in the field and
on the straw stack we're nothing
more or less than common CANNES
of mongrel variety and of course
that ended the merry wolf hunt
right there and then. Joseph
however stoutly maintains that
what he saw there before we're
