RED DOG OF INDIA.
HE 18 A KIIHTY HUNTER
GAME ANIMALS.
OF
ti*v*r ReachM the Size of a Welf ami
la of Peculiar ShapeTa Be
Found All Over Aaia.
The red dog sever reaches see aaw
of a wolf, tbeucn it exeeeda taaa ef a
Jackal, aaya tha Saratoga Review, ha
shape is uneouta, the body nanww ami
low in tka feratcarters, wit* levee
Umbe ending la large awkward aawa,
the mead and track carried low. Tka
head, remarkaele for tka large elast
furry ear*, la intermediate between
the domestic dog and fox, without the
honest look of tka one ef the quick
witted shareneas of the ether. AgeJaet
these disadvantages the bright cheat*
nut hue ef the wild dog'a coat, shading
into slack at the end of the brush,
does act avail far handsomeness.
Over saoet ef Iadia it is to he found,
en- mountains and plains, In forest,
where forest grows and about the bare
elopes where the kills have not vegeta
tion. East ef Iadia, a very similar
beast ranges even to Java, and anoth
er, paler and shaggier, haunts of Si
beria and Sakhalin, so that over most
of Asia one form or other is to be
reckoned with. Naturally the Indian
specie* is the siost known, yet it Is
not known at all intimately, for
though so widely spread it is not a
common animal and the field natural
ists ef India have little to say of it.
But it is clear that the red dog is a
very different animal from the wolf
and far superior to any other eastern
eanine. Most of the wild relatives of
our dogs are cowardly beasts, feeding
on carrion and small animals and
'wly attacking large ones when hard
pushed by hunger. Such is the wolfs
way ef life, while the jackal skulks
round villages and sometimes enters
large towns la search of scraps, mak
ing night hideous with his howls, even
to Calcutta. Bat the red dog ie a
true hunter, tka deadliest foe to the
game animals that is known in the
east. Be la aet very swiftless so
than the jackalor is he adroit or
graceful ia Us actions, ant ke follows
the soeat meetly In alienee, with a
deadly persistence, and however long
Che trail may be the pack runs into
their victim without fail in the end.
They do not go In large numbersa
dozen would ba a big packbut what
they want in force la replaced by their
courage and sunning strategy in at
tack.
Their ordinary prey is the powerful
sambur deer and the beautiful spotted
axis, corresponding to our red deer
and fallow deer, the various antelopes
of the plains and wild goats of the
hills. All of these they harry in turn
for a few days, then the terrified
beasts forsake that section of the
Jungle and the red pack must range
far afield again, not to return till long
after, when the terror of their raid
has subsided in the locality. Their
methods of attack are terrible in the
extreme some of their devices, in
deed, can hardly be mentioned here.
Suffice it to say that their ordinary
plan, whenever possible, is to disem
bowel the victim.
Deer are not the only prey on which
these terrible creatures adventure
the biggest horns known of the gaur
(bos gaurus) came from one said to
have been killed by wild dogs, of the
Burmese race In this ease and yet
this gaur, the largest of all wild oxen,
is too much for the ordinary tiger
and the tiger often fails with the bear,
the most gallant of all wild animals,
but the red pack will bring him to bis
end. Their fellow carnivores even are
not safe. The black bear of the Hi
malayas, although the fiercest of
Italian bears, has been seen in his Inst
struggle with the pack, with torn
coat and flesh In strips, fighting game
ly still.
Chinese Are Workers.
Everybody ia China works hard,
even those who have reached the
highest positions. It is related of a
member of the Chineae cabinet that he
left home every morning at two o'clock
as he was in duty at the palace from
three to six. As a member of the
privy council he was engaged from
six to nine. From nine until eleven
he was at the war department, of
which he was president. As the mem
ber of the board of punishment he
was in attendance from 12 till two and
as a member of the foreign office he
spent every day from two till five or
six there. In addition he frequently
served on special boards or commis
sions.
A Big Cruiser.
The armored cruiser Washington,
which has been formally accepted by
the government, has 14,500 tons dis
placement, with a speed of 22 knots
and a main battery of four ten-inch
guns and 16 six-inch rfhpid-fire rifles.
She also has ample coal capacity, and
a fair amount of armor protection.
Her battery verges on that of the bat
tleship class and her speed would en
able her to accept or decline combat
as her commander might see fit.

For the Capital.
St. PaulThe large arouse qnad
rtam tc ae erected over the south en
toaaee to tha new eapltol has been
shipped from New York aad will be
put ia place soon. The quadriga is
ike work of two sculptors, Daniel C.
Fseaek and 10. C. Potter. It has been
en exhibition at the lirrmi works ot
Jeka Williams, Incorporated* New
York, where it fcas been viewed by
many architects and sculptors.
The croup is of colossal proportions.
The base measures 21 feet by 18 feet
and the height over all is II feet. Un
like the reproductions of most of the
work ef present day sculptors, it is
of hammered sheet copper instead of
being east in bronze.
The method of making statues and
ether ornamental pieces in this man
ner has come down to us from the
aneients, and as they had a full knowl
edge of the casting processes for dupli
cating pieces of this sort, the greater
part of their work being of cast bronze,
we must conclude that with them, the
same reasons hold good for making the
work in sheet hammered metal instead
of casting as now exist.
Caretaker for Mineopa.
MankatoState Auditor Iverson an
nounced the appointment of J. B. Hid^e
of Minneopa Station as caretaker of
the new Minneopa State Park, near
Mankato. The appointment is made
under the law by which the park was
acquired by the state, which provides
that a caretaker should be appointed
by the state auditor until such time
as the legislature makes some other
provision in the matter.
The legislature of 1905 appropriated
$5,000 for the purchase of the land for
the park, but the negotiations for the
land and the perfection of the title con
sumed a great deal of time, and the
transaction was not completed until
Deo. 4. The owner of tho land was
paid $3,500. and the title has now
passed to the state.
The park is located about four miles
west of here and includes about sixty
acres through which the Minneopa
river runs. The chief feature in the
park are the falls, of which there ars
two.
In Good Shape.
t. PaulIn his biennial report to
the governor, Public Examiner P. M.
Kerst reports the state institutions and
departments, county offices and the
state bank generally In a very favor
able condition. Some criticism of
methods and practices now pertaining
are made, but the general tone of tha
report Is favorable so far aa these of
fices are concerned. "With reference to
tha gross earnings taxes imposed upon
the railroad, express and telephone
companies, and the methods by which
the correctness of the reports of such
companies must be checked up, the
examiner recommends soma changes.
An axtended examination has bean
made of the records of the board cf
control and it was found that in all
cases the contracts let by the board
were let to the lowest bidders, and all
payments made under the contracts
were within tha limits of the appro
priations.

Do Not Spoil Children
It is a mistaken kindness to give a Child money to
spend freely ou Candy and Knicknacks, it develops a
Spendthrift. Habits are formed while young. Train
the Habit of Thrift and Saving. Open an account with
us, make a small deposit in your Child's name. The
Child will find more pleasure in it than a new toy that
would soon be broken. And then the Child will find
more pleasure in depositing his pennies and dimes than
in buying sweets. It means saving money, saving
health and building character.
