'How many people are killed bj
woItm la Iluteia etcb year 1' X once
Asked of a Rtusiaa official at St.
Petersburg.
Twenty fthonsend, perhaps; bal
wUt of it f be replied.
If the Raeeiaa Government we
sot concerned about lb Dumber, be
oonld not aee wby onteidera aboold
be. And .if the Government waa
ooncerned, it ia doubtful if it coold
take any atepa to greatly lessen the
onmUr of wolvea or victims. From
east to weat aod north to aoatb Rue
eiaiaa wolf country. The dletaDce
between towna and the tbiuly aottled
agricultural districts give wildbeaata
opportonity to inoreaao jo number,
and it ia aaid of the Russia wolf that
La ia alwaya hungry. If statistics
were preserved and published, aa in
India, the publication of the number,
of viotime killed and devoured by
wolvee would bo atartling. Between
the Tillages of Tobloeky and TJikov
tky thirty uilea apart thero waa,
ia 16C8 only one bouse.- That wan
the half-way hotel. The rest of the
road wak jfiven up to plain and for
est, aod for five fear previous to
18C3 this bad been one of the caott
dangerous places in all Kueale
Travellers waited at either village
until a baud of fiom ten to twenty
bad collected, aod io mid-winter eol
diera had to accompany all travellers.
A member of the French Legation
told me tbnt, in oiakiDg this journey
ooce, the aledgea were followed aod
aurrounded bv a drove of wolvea es
timated to number two thousand
No attack waa mude, there btiug a
large escort of soldiers-
The first timo I piBed over the
road waa in aummer, aod cot" wolf
appeared iu eight. At ooe poiot,
wheie'the road traversed a plain for
eight miles, I saw, without leaving
the beateu truck, the bones of at
least fifty borses aod of aeveutyefive
persons. In aonie. cases. oolv a Imnd
"TOTvDfto,ones were left to rPreunt a
person, but I waa Issurtfd by the
drivers that a victim bad (1een pall
ed down wherever these bjoes lay.
The smaller bor.be are eaten up or
carried off but the larger cues are
left to bleach in the aummer ano or
lie biddeb under the drifts of wioter.
Even the hotel at the half-way poiot
waa not safe from attack, but had to
be aurrounded by a wall of atone too
feet high. When asked wby a gen
eral raid wan not made on the wol
ves of this district, and the pests ex
tormined or driven out, no one bad
an answer. Five hundred armed
peasants, directed and assisted by
fifty aoldiera, could have made clean
work of it io a day, but the idea of
nob a raid bad never occurred to
any one.
While I was lyiog at Urkoyaky
that aummer the Russian Govern
ment offered a bounty of fourteen
cento for the scalp of every wolf kill
ed in that district. There was
another American and an English
man in the village, and whju the
proclamation came out we determin
ed on a wolf bunt. We called in a
carpenter and gave him plana of a
bouse on runners. It waa aa large
ao one of the photograph cara drawn
from to town in the United States,
and provided with three bunks, a
otove.and other conveniences. There
were port bolee in the eidoe and
floors, besides three or four eliding
doors, aod when the house waa com
pleted we found plenty of room' for
three men and cool aod provisions
fur a fortnight. There was great
oarlousitv in the town as to what
ort of a move we bad in view, and

very dignified aod very grave. He
had corresponded with the police in
pector of the district, and that offi
cial bad correspondent with a great
er mao, and perhaps the aee wnt
to St. Petembarg. It he J. however,
been deoiJed that we could move
onr enr, providing we held ooratdves
responsible for all damages to tbe
Czar's subjects. We did not move
onr ear until the first week iu Jan
uary, It waa a very asvert winter,
aith wolveo moro numerous than for
years past, and we bad trouble to
get teama to draw our bouse to the
plain. All through Desomber tbe
road filled up aa often as opened, but
early io January we got f way, bav
iog four horses to draw the bouse.
We were to be left on tbe centre of
tbe plain for a week, when the bor
ses were to come back for a new
move.
Aa wo got out of town early in the
moroing we reached tbe spot select
ed long before noon. The car was
banlod off to tlio aide of the road at
a favorable place, and tbe men with
tbe horses wailed no longer than to
unhitch thorn before starting on the
let urn jonrncr. While we had not
seen a wolf oo the way out, eoveial
sludges had beeu pursued the week
before io brond daylight, and the
two met. aod four horses wore cor.
taioly a temptation for the brutes to
HHther. In making ready we had
had the advice of two or three old
wolf butiteis, nnd had adoptad some
of their suggest Kus. We had bro't
along Borne taw meat for bait; also a
gallon of beef's blood. As soon aa
we settled down we thawed this
blood, aod thou went out iu three
different directions aid sprinkled it
oo the hard, thick ciust. Oo our
way buck to the car wo 1 ft a trail,
and flung out a piece of meat at in
tervals. We hud not yet reached
the car when we heard tlio howl of a
wolf, and five minutes later we could
see a dozeo of tbeoi scamper about.
It was an hour, however, before one
came within rc-ucb of onr guns. The
sun, which had been brightly shining
all the afternoon waa hiddeu by
cloud, and a euow aqunll came np
to still further darken the heavens.
The howling of wolves could now
be beard io every direction, and
pretty soon they followed the traila
of blood io until we got a shot, and
each tumbled a wolf over. From
the inHtaut they fell to the time their
boucs were clean picked by their
companions was not over forty sec
onds. It was marvelous to watch
tbe proceeding. Tbe mouthful apiece
whetted their appetites aud stimu
lated their ferocity, and the whole
pack made a rush at the car. They
no doubt took it for a traveler's
sledge, aod tbe attack was surpris
ing in its fierceness. The oumber
of wolves waa not leea than five, and
for the first five minutes we wore
xeiiously alarmed, Tbey were over,
under, and around ns, howling.baik
ing, snarling, growling, and fighting
in a way to givo aa chills, and had
our car not been securely fastened
to the broad, heavy runners, they
would have upset it in their rushes
The exterior had been sheathed with
sheet iron. We had objeoted to this
expense, but had finally accepted
the advioe o! one of the wolf hnoteie.
W oow realized the wisdom of this
precaution. But for the sheathing
the wolvea would have eaten tbeir
way into the oar io a dozeo places.
Such a fierce and unexpected at
tack rattled na for a few minutes,but
after a bit we began firing buckshot
into tbe pack aa fast aa wo could load
and pull trigger. Then it was pan
demouium let, loose. Tbe bowls,
yells, yelps, growls, and criea redou
bled, because every viotim of our
guns was being devoured by bis
companions. We fired thirty-four
ohargea of buok-sbot into tbe mass,
killing at least double that number
of wolves, aod then tbe paok began
to scatter, and ten minutes later not
a living wolf was in sight. It was a
horrible looking sight around ns.
Every wolf but oue bad been de
voured, Tufta of fur aod bloody
bones were scattered over tbe snow
for a hundred foot in every direction
aod thore as not a foot of soow
without its blood- stain. There
was a wonoded wolf who bad escap
ed tbe faogs of the paok, probably
because their appetites were satisfied
for tbe time being, lie bad been
shot through tbe hips, and coold no
longer use bis hind legs- He was a
very Urge Mlow, and we soon bad
r:3 to bsl! tUt Us was still
dangerous. The beast was abont 50
I'eps away when we descended
from the. car, and the minute he
eangbt sight of us a great transfor
mation took place. All the fur along
his spine stood op, bis eyes biased
like fire, and be ottered such . fierce
growls that tbe throe of ns raised
onr guns. The brute could drag
over tbe enow crust with ' bis fore
legs, and as we stood looking at blru
he bgan bitching himself forward
to attack as. We let him come
within five or six foet of as before
knocking him over. From bis so
tioos there was no doubt he would
have tx Idly attacked the three
of na bad be been lea desperatley
wounded Hi scalp was the only
one we saved out of the sixty or sev
enty shot.
Not another wolf was seen nntil
night came down. Then tbey gath
ered around na seemingly by the
thousands. Looking out from one
of the small eliding doors one was
reminded of a great drove of abeep
cantering over rough ground. Not
one of them waa still for a minute
and a free fight was always in order
Our bouse stood six or seven feet
high, but they leaped over it back
aud forth as essily as thsy could
have ovor a log. At one time sever
al of them engaged in a fight over
our beads, and we bad serious feara
of the roof breaking under their
weight. When we finally opnod
Gie I boneotly believe there were
2,000 wolvea within pistol shot. Our
house was the ceotro of circle of
leaping, bowliog, fighting, yelping
beasts, each one of which seemed
bent on getting nearer. It was a
bright moonlight nig'it, and we did
not waste a shot, Oue could have
shut his eyes and been sure of kill
ing or wounding st every discharge.
We limited our shots to twenty-five
each, and fired slowly so as not to
beat onr gtna. I believe we killed
a hundred wolvea with the seveoly-
five shots. If one wss woondjd
enougu to crme the flow of blood be
waa a goner. Tho nnwounded would
tear him to pieces with even more
ferocity than they displayed toward
tbe dead. Soon after we ceased
firing the great bnlk of tbe wolves
retired, to be seen or beard no more
dnring that night. A few who Lad
probably failed to secure a share of
the horrible feast remained io the
vicinity to growl over tbe bloody
bouos sod utter an ocoasion bowl.
sod after midnight We slept soundly.
We were afterwards told by peasants
living eight or ton miles away that
packs of wolves passed their farms
at dusk oo their way to tbe general
rendezvous. Some of tboso sur
rounding our house probably cauit
twelve or fifteen miles. The keeper
of the hotel saw fifty or more pass
his place, aod they were in such a
hurry aod so occupied with the pro
ject oo foot that tbey passed within
twenty feet of a stray colt without
halting to attack it
On the acocd day of our stay we
were witnesses of a dreadful tragedy,
It was a cloudy day, with occasional
snow squalls, but no wolves came
oear us. At about 2 o'clock, while
my companions were lying down, I
opened a slide to takes look ovei
tbe highway towarda Toblosky. For
four miles tbe highway was over a
plain, and one could see every mov
ing object. Then tbo road was lost
in a pine forest, which stretched
along for a couple of miles. I bad
acarcely pulled back the slide when
an object came in view on tbe road
at the edge of tbe forest, aod in half
a miooto I made out horses. A
tledge waa coming otr way, tho first
which had passed since He took up
our station. We bad a pair of field
glasses in tbe car, and I bad no
sooner adjusted tbe focus than I ut
tered a about whiob brought my
companions to tbeir foot There
were three horses abreast, and tbey
were coming at a dead run, while on
both aides of tbe sledge I could
make out fierce wolves jumping op.
Tbe team was a powerful ooe, aod
coming very fast, ao'd io a minute
more 1 made out that tbe sledge wss
ui rounded by a great paok of
wolves. Tbe driver was lashing tbe
borses in a frenzied way, while tbe
smoke and flame and faint report
proved that the occupants of tbe
sledge were nsing fire-arms to de
fend themselves. We . had two or
three minutes in which to sot. Each

or that tbe people in it woold cor-lrb
opened ooe of the doors, got down
our gnna, and all were ready to leap
out when a dreadful sound reached
onr ears. It was the . ihriek of a
horse. I say shriek, for it was noth
ing more nor lens i'uk "of ter
ror end ilecpalr. Thecause was
plain as looked out. Ooe of tho
horses bad fallen when the sled was
hardly twenty rods away aod the
other two bad been drugged down
with him. We oould not see thorn,
however, for the wolves. We just
canght sight of two or throo human
figures iu furs, heard Dm reports of
pistola, aod shouts of human voices,
and tbeu the terrible din made , by
the wolves drowoed all other sounds.
Wo should have sprr.nf out and
uoiie to the assistance of the beset
tiavelleis, but before we could move
a foot our car was Burrouaded by
wolvrs, aod a monster got his hoad
and shoulders iolo the doorway and
bung there for a few seconds despite
the Licks from our honvy boots, We
opened the elides and looked out,
hut all was over thou bTbe carcass
of tho horses had been picked to the
boue, the harnesses eaten, aod the
robes from the sledge wero being
toin spait as the wolves r.icid
urouud. U'osiw pieceiof bloody

knew that the travellers had met a
horrible ftito. Wo learned after

Tho pack of wolves, which seernod
to bo larger than any which had yet

Queer Stories of tho Courts
I remombor vory well the first
cuso I had to to defend. My client
bad 'tuck a h. g.'' My fatbor left
me to mnko my own bngiuning and
to wrestle with justice alone. I said:
'Jim when yon are oullud plead not
guilty, and asked for a trial by a
jury.
'Yes, sab,' sai 1 Jim.
W hen Jim wus called he stood up,
and tue clcik read iu his stereotyp

ovor again it waa accordingly read,
and to tbe same coucludiug inter

'See here, you,' said tbe Judge,
he is asking yon if you took that

And to my horror, Jim soratcbed

said : 'Yes, sab. Jedge, I tuck de
