Their Ability to Detect a Trap Is Almost Uncanny. A bounty of $115 for a timber - wolf seems rather large. At first ry thought, you might be inclined to agree with a man who wrote to an acquaintance in Utah, where such a reward prevails, that the thought it would pay to devote his time entire- ly to hunting ,wolves. The reply he received, which is published in Out- door World and Recreation, ex- plains why so heavy a price has been put upon the head of the "big brother to the fox." lining you are familiar with their habits and -the country they frequent, you cannot understand how hard it is to catch them. It is almost impossible to poison them, for the war we have waged upon thein for twenty years has made them so cunning that it is very rare to find one poisoned. Their ability to detect traps is uncanny. A man set three traps on each side of a trail, at intervals of a couple of feet, and then put one directly in the middle of the trail. He hoped that when the wolf de- tected the latter, which he purpose- ly set in a careless manner, he would step aside, and so spring the traps carefully hidden at the edge of the trail. Imagine hie disgust, a day or two later, to find that the wolf had stopped when he scented the trap in the trail, but instead of stepping either to right or left, had carefully backed out of the danger sone, and had then made a detour • all round the carefully constructed snare, and taken up the trail again some and feet farther on. • It is impossible to run them -with hounds, on account of the extreme roughness of the country; which leaves the rider miles in the rear, and strings the dogs, according •to their strength and endurance, for several miles along the trail. .In the meantime, the wolves con- tinue to kill cattle and sheep ; hence the high bounty. S. . . HEALTH err Swimmers' Cramp. livery swimmer, even the most xpert, needs to .be on his guard garnet a sudden and disabling ramp. The condition is fortunate - not very common,—at least, in e most severe form,—although very summer several deaths are ttributed to it. As amatter of ct, however, nob every sudden eath in the water is owing to ramp, for heart disease causes one of them. Swimming, it must e remembered, taxes the heart everely; the healthy heart can tend the strain perfectly well, but weakened or diseased heart hould not be asked to undergo it. The cramp that attacks the swim- er is like any other cramp, but it isables the sufferer more corn- letely because he has nothing rm to rest upon, and because he ay ned the useless muscles to eep his head above water. It is erely a sudden, involuntary con - section of a single muscle or group f muscles. It is far more powerful ban any voluntary muscular ef- rt, and it is exceedingly painful. t can affect any of the muscles of he body, but it is most common in he calf of the leg. ... Other muscles, however, especi- ly those of the abdomen, are like - to be affected, and •in severe ases the pain induces nausea and aintness. It is this faintness and he feeling of panic that accom- anies complete helplessness that ake a cramp in the water so dan- erous. Strong exertion causes cramps, nd that is one reason why they oc- ur in swimming; the cold of -the ater also predisposes to them. hey occur most frequently in rowing children, and in the aged, nd they are also likely to attack hose who suffer from gout, rheu- atism, or anemia. The swimmer who is attacked by ramp must not lose his head. If e is at home in the water, he can Brow himself upon his back and oat. At the same time he should asp the cramped muscle, knead it and rub it. Cramp seldom lasts more than a minute, and if he can control himself, and keep his head above water for •that time, he is ale,. Then he pan paddle gently to s ore, or -float on his back untiI as- sistance comes.—Youth's Compan- ion. "What a mistake it is to j:,dge Mien by their clothes !", "'Yes.

Moreover, he was as nervous as a kitten, and read—"And they fed five people with five thousand loaves of bread and five thousand fishes." Thereat one of his rustic .hearers murmured, loud enough to be heard—"That's no miracle. Begone, I could do that myself." The curate overheard him, and so 'on the following Sunday he an- nounced the same text, but had it right this time. "And they fed five thousand people with five loaves of bread and,a few fishes. He paused ii second, and then, leaning over the pulpit, he said: "Could you do that, Pat Murphy?" But Murphy was ready.. "Sure, yer rivereuce, I could." "And how would you do it?" asked the priest. "Sure, I could do it with what was left over from last Sunday." MURDERED RAILWAYS FOR AUSTR Agreement Has Been Signed for Construction of New Lines. An important agreement, which will require Parliamentary approv- al, has been signed on behalf of the New South Wales Government and of Norton, Griffiths and Co,, for the constrneti•on of railways on the north coast, including one which will shorten the route to Queens- land, and another from Condobolin to Broken Hill, the latter place be- ing an important mining centre, which at present is only served by a railway from South Australia. The total "cost of the railway scheme, it is estimated, will be $15,- 000,000. The firm is to be paid by the Government supervision charg- es at the rate of 5 per cent., and the workmen are to be employed on -the day labor system, under the same labor conditions as prevail in the Government departments. The Minister for Works supports the agreement. The projected railways are to be completed within two and a half years.
