THURSDAY, NOVEMBER Is 1911

The leadership of the forces arrayed
against Germany is passing, il indeed
it has not already passed, into the
hands OF the United Ststes. Our CO
belligerents are frank to acknowledge
their dependence on the vast resources
of this country and are nothing 10th to
defer to America on important ques
tions of the war. on the part Of this
government, however there is 10 dis
poaition to assume Glossy" airs Our
one desire is TO bring about a yictori-
GUS end of the war in the quickest time
possible. 1t is to that end that Amer-
can commissioners, headed 10y Colonel
House, have been sent to confer with
similar commissions from the other ALL
lied nations.
The purpose apparently is to co-or-
dinate the lighting forces; to create, in
effect, a great general star which will
have the direction of the war. The
need Of some such general board Of
strategy and management was haue
apparent by the recent events in Italy
and is emphasized by the grave Russi.
an situation. Whether or not Russia
could have been saved, it seems appar-
ent that the Italian reverse need not
have happened had there BEEN a co.
ordinate direction Of the war instead OF
number Of nations each fighting in
their own way against the common en-.
envy ana giving less heed than they
should To the needs Of their co-belliger-
ents.
1t is not too much to hope and expect
that, as a result Of the visit Of the
American commissioners ana their de-
liberations with representatives Of the
other countries lighting for tho same
cause, there will be some marked
changes in the conduct of the war, and
that they will be- all for the better.

Young Ohio Printer Established IN.
dianapolis' First News Dissemina-
tor in 1922, in Log Cabin.

The first newspaper published In
Indianapolis was the Indianapolis Ca
zette, started In January, 1872, by Ma
thaniel Bolton, a young printer who
came from Ohio. He was born at
Chillicothe, once an Indian town, and
later for few years the capital Of
Ohio. He learned the printers trade
there and moved to Indianapolis q
year after the capital was located
there. In a reminiscent address many
years later he said:
"The Gazette was established in a
buckeye log cabin of but one room,
part of which was occupied for "a fam
lily residence. 1t was printed on new
type. The ink was put on with balls
made of dressed deer skin stuffed with
wool. The balls, when out Of use,
were kept soft by the application Of
raccoon oil. There was no post office
nearer than Connersville, a distance Of
60 miles; but a private mail was os-
tablshed and n person employed to go
to Connersvile every four weeks 90
bring the letters and newspapers. In
February, 1898, the presidents mes
sage, delivered in DecC!aber, lS22,

MULE MISSED HER TOBACCO
Temperamertal Mountain Canary Not
Blamed for Planting Hoofs in Back
OF Her Only Friend.

Thinking the animal made a mistake
in not knowing whom she was kicking
or It was his fault because he forgot
to give her the usual chew of tobacco
Fred Wales Of Grass Valley, Cal, who
carried his arm in a sling for some
time as the result Of a kick from Bes-
sic, excuses his partner of fourteen
years for injuring him.
The mule is known to every en-
ployee Of the mine, 400 in all, and
while there is no affection for her
among 40 of them, they all have a
wholesome respect for her in spite of
her contrary disposition. 1t is a rhine
classic that she kicks the airpipe two
feet above her for exercise.
With Fred Wales, however, it is diff
ferent. He has worked with Bessie
for fourteen years and has become at
tachod to the animal. He excuses her
yagaries as an indulgent mother con-
doues the actions Of spoiled child.
It is merely a matter of tempera-
ment he says, and the other men do
not understand her. His faith was
shaken temporarily, but not for long.

The horror OF lepers is a religious
horror. The Scriptural writer's were
not good at diagnosing diseases, and
their accounts mix up leprosy with
several other ailments that are high.

engaged. The Turk was as surprised
as the Briton, but came forward revol-
yer in hand. The Englishman had nc
revolver. He stood his ground, his
hands in the large pockets of his tunic,
Seeing that his adversary was unarm-
ed, the Turk, much to the surprise OF
the Briton, threw down his gun and
put his fists in approved prize ring
style. The Englishmen put himself on
guard, and the next moment the Turk
flung himself upon him, and the pair
began to fight desperately.
The men were about the same age,
the same weight, and had adequate
knowledge of the article OF boxing.
They fought without stopping for about
ten minutes BY that time each was
exhausted, and they paused for brief
rest, only TO continue their little pri-
vate accounting when they had found
their breath. Round after round the
fight went on, while out in Gulf Of Sar-
os the ships fired automatically, and
back Of each of them the field artillery
numbered. Neither seemed TO be able
to get any decisive advantage over the
other, and at last Turk and English
man rolled over on the ground and
laughed and laughed. Just then the
Englishman's hand touched something.
It was the Turks pistol. He picked
it up and handed it to his enemy.
Then the two young men shook hands
and each returned to his own lines

BREEDING DOGS WITH WOLVES
Darwin's Belief Was That Domestic
CANNES Represent Several Races
Of the Wild Animal.

IN 1.-THE Origin of the Species" Dar-
win expressed the opinion that the dog
was originally descended from the
wolf. He was inclined to think that
in different parts of the globe man
had famed the particular species of
wolf which would be found there, and
that our domestic dogs, therefore, rep
resent not one but several races of the
wild animal. writes r. b. Townshend
in the Westminster Gazette. 1t has
long been known that dog and wolf
-iH interbreed freely. Button, for
example, tells us that he made such
"a cross successfully. Indeed, in Rus
sin the Tsars long kept up a fierce
pack of hounds for wolf hunting in
which q strong strain Of wolf was
evident. Unfortunately, a few years
ago the little daughter of a huntsman,
crossing their kennel alone, stumbled
and fell, and the savage brutes set
upon her and devoured her on the
spot. Tho indignant tsar had the
whole pack destroyed.
4afAlA i+A A-lAeltlitiA INT NlONe VIII lliN
wolf has been resorted to for otter
hounds in order to increase the cour-
age and strength of jaw, of the dogs.
But as the first cross proved rather
too wild and uncertain in temper for
safe handling, the masters Of otter
hounds have always crossed back
again and again to the dog till there
remained perhaps only one sixty
fourth of wolf blood, or even less.
This fact establishes the fertility Of
the hybrid between the wolf and the
dog when bred back to one of the
original parents, but so far there has
been no evidence to show how far the
hybrids would be fertile when bred
together continuously. Recently, how
ever in the present century. this has
been tested by Or. Alaric Benin of
DC Stockholm geological gardens,
who has given a brief account of the
results obtained by him.
