Was It a Wolf or a Hybrid For Which Bounty Was Paid?

Or was it a dog? . County Auditor J. P. Hammond, who took in the supposed wolf pelt and punched the ears and gave it back to Itetarsoh, who killed 4t, has been actively at work trying to determine the quality of the beast which he presumed to be a wolf. He had Peterson’s affidavit to fall back upon and more than that he had the judgment of a local fur buyer, who paid $3.00 for the hide. Everything went smoothly until the pelt was offered for sale in Chicago, where the owner was informed that it was a dog skin. Auditor Hammond then got t/usy and called some of the old time nimrods into consultation and had them pass judgment on the hide. Shelby Grant and J. W. Childers, who know the proper tint and shading for Jasper county wolves by reason of long lives in this county, and who have been Jasperites since the early days when wolves were more common than dogs, agree that the hide looks much like a cyote of the old days and is entitled to he so considered and according to the law of the state the huntsman is entitled to the bounty. Charles W. Bussell, whose memory extends back some distance and who has also had considerable latter day experience with wolves, Is Inclined to think the animal is a hybrid, a cross between a wolf and a Scotch Collie dog. He says it is a doggoned poor wolf and yet a mighty wolfish looking dog. He expects to bring the pelt of a real wolf in one of these days and permit a comparison to be made. The agitation, however, should result in. some added precaution 3n the inspection of pelts brought in for bounties in the future.

TO BREAK UP COLD

Some Advice That Will Save Time and Money. Strong drink and quinine may relieve a cold, but it usually does more harm than good. To break up a hard cold! in either head or chest thousands are using this sensible treatment. First Of all look after your bowels; if they need attention use any relU able cathartic. Then pour a scant teaspoonful of HYOMEtt into a bowl of boiling water, cover the head and bowl with a towel and breathe for 5 or 10 minutes the pheasant, soothing, healing vapor. Do this before going to bed; your head will feel fine and dear and you’ll awake from a refreshing sleep minus a cold in the morning. For colds, coughs, catarrh, asthma and croup HYOMEI is guaranteed. A fifty cent /bottle is all you need to break up a cold and this can be obtained at B. F. Fendig’s and druggists everywhere.

one who held that bag after I placed the notes in it. He ought to be able to explain about them.” L . _.Z. On hearing Mrs. Parkison’s story Captain Halpin assigned Detectives Rohan and Garrigan and then sent telegrams to the police in more than a dozen cities. But Rohan and Garrigan finally found the clew tjiat led to Fleming. They traced his baggage from the Great Northern Hotel to the Chicago & Northwestern depot, where he had boarded a train for the west. The train number was obtained and a telegram describing Fleming sent to the conductor. He answered that Fleming was bound for Souix City and when the real estate man reached that place yesterday, the first person to greet him was a policeman.” There is a possibility that the stories published in the newspapers are not altogether correct and unfortunately the articles have brought Mrs. Parkison into much undesired notoriety, when it is probable that she was led into making this investment in a very natural way. She is still in Chicago, where- she will remain until after the arrival of Fleming and it is prqbn, able that she will be able,to give w more correct report of the transaction after her arrival here. Attorney G. A. Williams, of Rensselaer, has frequently advised with Mrs. Parkison about business matters as also has Emmet L. Hollingsworth, cashier of the First National Bank. Neither, however, had apy knowledge of this transaction according to themselves and it must be that Fleming had control of Mrs. Parkison little short of hypnotic. It is probable that Fleming will claim that the notes were given him by her and if that can be proven, it is not improbable that she will have to pay them as they fall due.

The OBhaughnessy, who is spoken of as Mrs. Parison’s e Chicago attorney, is the riame man to whom the Rensselaer Commercial Club transferred the factory addition to Rensselaer. It is also claimed that one of the men who was dealing with Sterling for the purchase of stock in the jnitch factory had some Mexican land for sale and some people have put two arid two together and surmised that there may be some connection with .this deal to the frantic efforts to sell match factory had some Mexican land .pretty far fetched and Mr. Hollingsworth is certain it can not be the case. Mr. Hollingsworth heard from Mrs. Parkison after she had set the police on the track of Fleming through Mr. QTShaughnesay, who called him by long distance phone to explain the predicament in which Mrs. Parkison had placed herself. He' also wrote to Mr. Hollingsworth about the matter, briefly outlining the circumstances of the transaction. It is hoped that Mrs. Parkison will be able to prove the fraudulent method of obtaining the notes and show up all parties connected with it The Mexican land, according to the Tribune consists of 4,000 acres situated in Chihauhau. Dr. H. P. Fitzpatrick, in whose “beauty” parlor Mrs. Parkison is Said to have first met Fleming, says that Fleming has long been a patient of ywlf anH "Has paid him upwards of $4 000 for removing superfluous hair from his face. Fleming is said to be the son of a merchant at Huron, S. Dak. The following portion of the story is taken from the Sioux City, lowa, News, of Monday: Paul Fleming, charged in Chicago with the theft of $19,000 in notes, was arrested in Sioux City at 2 p. m. today. A baggage check proved his undoing. Chief Richard on Sunday night received p telegram from Capt. John J. Halpin, of the Chicago detective bureau, asking him to watch the Northwestern . station this morning for Fleming. With the fugitive’s description—2B years. pt age, 5 feet 11 inches tail,, dark hair, smooth face and dark .brown suit —a steamer trunk was mentioned and the number of the check, 42,753, given. Detectives Curtis and Danielson were at the Station when the train from Chicago arrived at Br2o a. m. and spent the entire forenoon about the baggage room, waiting for Fleming to claim his trunk. Thslr patience was rewarded at 2 p. m. when a man answering his description presented the check stabNo particulars regarding the alleged robbery are known by the local officers other than that the complaining witness is Alda T. K. Parkison. The notes as yet have not come to Hght. Chief Richard wired Chicago and is awaiting instructions. . ..

Parr and McCoysburg Men Vie For Recent Hunting Honors.

No- sooner had The Republican reached its subscribers in the country Tuesday than The Republican telephone began to rtngr and let us know that there were some other hunters beside Jerry Garland and “Nub” Hemphill. Steve Brusnahan called to inform us that while he was attending the democratic county convention Monday, Charley Rowen invaded his farm near Parr and pumped a load of shot into a big sandhill crane, a very stately bird and the first one Steve Says he has seen in 25 years. Steve tried to claim possession of the bird because he was pasturing on his do-, main, hut Charley took advantage of the- adage that “possession Is nine points in law” and Steve couldn’t out talk him. The elongated bird was fat and in fine shape and decorated the board at a dinner party which Charley gave. It is said that sandhill cranes are very excellent eating. _ Whenever a person goes out after hunting honors he can feel assured that he wall have Charley Bussell, of Hanging Grove township, to adjust matters with. Charley read The Republican story of the goose killing and called his son Elvfn to his side and told him to get the flint locks out and in less than two hours he was at the' olier end of the telephone to inform ns that they had kill 'd five geese and six ducks. Get busy, all you ambitious himjods about Rensselaer or our brothers to the north and east will have us beaten to a frazzle.

Watts de Peyster School Will Be Enlarged Soon.

The North Indiana M. E. Conference, held at Wabash, came to a close at the Monday afternoon session. At tue Saturday session Miss Sarah Bowmen, from the'school, spoke to the conference. - ■. . This school is at present under the Methodist Deaconess' direction and is capable of receiving only twenty girls. Twenty-five hundred has been raised for a new building and work will be commenced at once. The probable cost is about $3,500 and the capacity of the house will then be 70., With the increased capacity the home will be easily filled for many (applications are waiting. The girls are taken from any place and are simply girls in need of Christian teaching, who are below the sixth grade. A small tuition is asked, sl2 per month being the only expense. Some are, when very needy, admitted for less. It is the hope of the promoters to raise an endowment so that the organization can do a more complete benevolent work. The school deserves the support of all lovers of pure and noble womanhood.
