UNCLE SAM, TRAPPER
By Frederic J. Haskin
[Continued From Editorial Page]
kota, and it may be carried into the
ancient State of Maine, where one (
would not expect wild animals to men
ace industrj, but where wolves are re
! ported as lTeing very abundant.
It is the sheep men that suffer most
! heavily and regularly from the preda- ;
| tory animals. Sheep are absolutely j
j defenceless and easily "stampeded." j
'The long-horned range cattle are much
better able to care of themselves; ]
but many calves and some full-grown J
stock are destroyed by wolves each :
J year. One of the government trap- I
pers not long ago succeeded in catch-
I tng an old timber wolf t hat was esti
; mated to have killed $3,000 worth of
' beef. The total annual loss of live- j
1 stock from predatory animals is esti
mated at $15.000;000. In addition to
this, many deer and other valuable
game animals are killed by them.
For many years the Biological Sur- j
vey has been designing traps and im- j
porting them from foreign countries j
with a view to discovering the best j
kinds, both for government use, and ;
in order that reliable information on j
the subject may be given to farmers j
and ranch men. It now has one of
I the most complete collections of traps
j In the world.
In its work against predatory ani-
I mals. the government has employed
chiefly the steel traps (ised in taking j
i fur for the market. In addition to a •
' large assortment of these, it has gath- j
' ered from trappers all over the eoun
i try the receipts for making "scent" to
attract the animals. This is a rather
i gruesome business, the basis of most
' of these lures being thoroughly de
| cayed meat soaked in oil and flavored
j with musk, which always attracts the
beasts of prey. This scent Is some
times dragged for miles over the '
prairies in order that the animals nhall
follow the trail and fall into the trap.
The keen sense of smell which char- j
acterl7.es all the hunting animals may
J be'taken advantage of in this way; i
I but it also mokes them hard to out
wit. The government hunters all
handle their traps with gloves, which
| are often soaked in blood, and stand
; on a hide or a piece of canvas while
'■ setting them. All of this is necessary to !
i keep the "set" from being tainted with
j the odor of man, which all the wild [
treaXuxes Instinctively fear and shun.j

ins Harrisburg Thursday, when York
comes here, are keeping the local offi
cials busy. The program, while simi
lar to that on former opening days,
will also include -some new feat ures, j
It is probable that President William
R. Douglass will toss the first ball. In
vitations will be sent to prominent, (
State, county and oliy officials. The
usual parade will take place prior to
the game.

The second boxing show under the,
direction of<the West End Republican

Street Auditorium. The program is
one of the best ever offered outside the
laige cities. The seat sale Indicates a
record crowd. There will be music by
an orchestra.
The only change in to-night's bill at
the Chestnut Stret Auditorium will lie
in the seiniwind-up. Young O'Neill,
of Scranton, will Duet Knockout Wag
ner, of Philadelphia, instead of Willie
Franklin, of Lancaster. The latter has
a bad ear and will not be able to figh;
for several weeks.

The western teams, while not showing
