Still After Famous Wolf.

STAMFORD, March 24.-(U.P.)-
A ruse which has seldom failed will
be employed to end the career of the
famous white killer wolf of the Lit
tie Belt.
The mating scent has been placed on
as wolf traps by Matt Daniels, gov
eminent trapper, and with the VOLTS
mating season here, the experienced
hunter believes it just matter of
time before the canny' old killer is
lured to his death.
But if this rather underhanded
method Of ending the killers life
fails, Daniel will import band of
fox hounds to run down the animal
Although Daniels is admittedly con-
fident j. j. Williams, Craig trapper.
believes the wolf will continue to out
wit his pursuers. He recalls how he
carefully placed bits Of poison liver
inside a calf carcass, how he returned
to find the beast completely eaten by
the old killer and of how the poison
bait was neatly left in pile and
covered with dust and filth. He re-
members how the old wolf was saved
by luck time and again and thinks
that little short of miracle will end
his bloody career.
