A GREAT WOLF D00.
Rome Fin Points lrTlul When lie Was
1'ut to the Tout.
An old hunter, who had lived many
years In the West and other regions
where hunting was part of a man's
tfally living, wob telling stories recent
ly to a Washington Btar reporter, and
the conversation turned on dogs, after
It had run to conptderablo length In
other directions.
"I remember," sold ths old man with
a little, low, soft reminiscent snicker,
"of a wolf dog that my boy Jim got
off of a feller that you might call a
tramp, these times. Jim had an idea
lie knowed everything about dogs that
was to be knowed, and when this tramp
feller came along with a wiry, mean
looking dog and wanted to trade hlmj
fer a pint of whiskey, Jim 'lowed he
was a powerful wolf dog and the tramp
feller said thar wasn't a better one In
the country, fer he was kred fer wolveij
pertlkler, so Jim ups an4 swaps a pint
of liquor fer the dog and the tramp
feller gits along his Journey and Jim
goes to sllckln' the dog up and glttln'
him ready fer a wolf that he knowed
was chasln his hogs lap In the moun
tain. ,
"One mornln' bright and early Jim
set out with the dog to give the wolf a
run, and about two hours afterward,
the dog had the wolk agoln llckcty
split. The wolf turk 'round the p'lnt of
the hill with the dog after him and Jim
Mowed he could cut across tho top and
pit In ahead of 'em In good time to see
the dog chaw up the wolf, fer he prid
ed himself on that dog and had been
tellln' the whole neighborhood what a
fine dog he had picked up.
"Course Jim knowed dogs and he
knowed that dog of hls'n would chaw
the wolf up In no time, and he went
over the hill chucklln'. When he got
to where he thought the dog and wolf
ought to pass there wasn't a sign and
Jim sot down to wait. It wasn't long
till a feller came along and Jim hailed
him.
" 'Say,' says Jim, 'you see anything
of a dog chasln' a wolf anywhere's the
way you come?'
" 'Sorter yoller brlndle dog?' says
the feller.
" 'Same,' says Jim, mightily tickled.
'Had he kotched up with him?'
" 'Kotch up with him?' says the fel
ler. 'Well, I sh'd say he had. He was
200 yards ahead and the wolf waa run
ning the tall off him. Wui It your
dog?" says the feller, but Jim's heart
was broke and none of us didn't dare to
say 'dog' to Jim fer better'n alx
months."
An Underground Son.
"Stories about a great subterranean
lake or sea beneath Nebraska, Kansas
and a part of Indian territory are going
the rounds of the press," said Robert
T. Hill, of the United States geological
survey. "They are accompanied by de
tails relating to the bottomless ponds
occupying areaa where patches of land
have sunk and disappeared. Other re
ported phenomena supposed to be In
the same conneotlon are roaring wells
In which water ebbs and flows.
"Such talea become current period
ically. So far as the wells are concern
ed, they are based on fact. I myself
have seen a number of wells In which
the water rose and fell at Intervals.
This is not an uncommon phenomenon
in parts of the west. It has a relation
to changes of the barometer. When
the barometer Is high, the pressure of
the atmosphere being greater, the wa
ter In such wells and springs stand at
a low level. On the other hand, when
the mercury In the glass Is low, the
diminished pressure permits the water
to rise. The surface level varies from
day to night, for the same reason.
"There are many phenomena connect
ed with western wells and spring
which are calculated to excite the at
tention of the observer from the east.
They are puzzling sometimes even to
a scientific student. I have never seen
a well that roared, but I know of no
reason why such a thing may not hap
pen. There are wells from which cur
rents of air come up. Stories are told
of magnetic wells. In the neighborhood
of which he needle of the compass Is
affected. I never saw one, and no facts
appear to support this peculiar yarn.
Water Is the most common substance
in the world, and there Is nothing about
which so much humbug exists.
"The most remarkable well I have
ever seen was on the old battlefield of
Stone river, In Tennessee. A man dig
ging for water struck an underground
stream. He mado the hole big enough
to hold a water wheel. The stream ran
the wheel and pumped water up to the
owner's house. Underground streams,
of course, are common enough. They
are frequent In the limestone region of
Texas, In the gypsum region of New
Mexico, In the Appalachian region, and
In the limestone region of Iowa and
Missouri. The very fact that these
streams are flowing shows that they
are seeking a base level, and hence it
Is useless to try to tap them by artesian
wells, because the water will not rise.
"There Is no such thing In the world
as an underground lak er sea. Never
theless, such lakes have been created
frequently by the Imagination of hope
ful settlers In the west. The truth In
this matter was established years ago
by the government engineers, who, un
der the direction of Col. Nettleton,
Journeyed across the great plains of
Kansas and Nebraska. They sounded
every well they could find, studying the
underground water. Of the fact that
there was no underground sheet of wa
ter they made certain. The wells were
like any other wells, the water coming
from saturated rocks below the level of
surface evaporation." Pittsburg Coin
merclal Gazette.
