Franks, chief of the detec-tive force here has just made a valuable ac. (juisition to his force. It is Bruno and Kate a brother and sister from Huntsvlllc, Texas, who boast of a gencaulogy that extends hack "befo' the, wall." They are a pair of bloodhounds whose ancestors in days were thoroughly tralued to tauut fugi-tive negroes In the dar k swamps of the unuy south. These bounds are of excellent breeding and show the marks of "thorough" in every lineament and feature. Bruno is the beauty, lie is larger than Kate, Is l months old and weighs about ninety pound, which he will probably increase to 115 or 12. pounds when full grown. Bruno Is a picture; ho Is swayed lu the back with bristling mane, dark, winsome eyes that can grow tierce in. a second, and has a breadth of chest that Is simply wonderful. His color 's black and tan, and bis Jaws hsng down half way to his chest, giving to bis otherwise massive and square head and added force and penalties. His big black ears bang over like ledges of flesh and his throat is full and wide. When be speaks, which he does at command, there Is-sues from some hidden depth a sound as deep as thunder, as musical as a born, and yet conveying somehow a sense of fear that makes oue tremble to think of bearing it la pursuit. Bruno, along with Kate secured his early education In the Texas penitentiary and It Is clalnW that he can go in the midst of scores of track and with his nose to the ground follow a criminal to the end of time. It is when Bruno is In his softer moods that he is most beauti. fill, as he sits upon his great haunches with a tender and rostful light In his eyes and seems to query "what can I do for you old fellow?" Then there Is something about him that makes one long to know hlra more familiarly, but the desire somehow dil's aborning. With Kale it is quite different. She has the soft appealing nature of her sex, and while she is equally Intelligent on a trail she Is never so tierce as her big brother. This makes a pack of six bloodhounds owned by Franks now, and he expects to perforin wonders with them. As soon as the warm weather dissolves the snow Franks intends giving an exhibition of their prowess. It Doesn't Mean Western Tattle. Banuor, Me., Dec. 20.

It is the desire of tho committee having the. matter In charge to encourage small subscriptions as it is desirous of having all classes of citizens become shareholders in the concern.

A PIG THAT CLIMBS TREES. Peculiar Animal Recently Shot by a Nat-uralist in (Queensland. Pall Mall Budget. A curiosity has lately been shot by Mr. Le Mortemore, who has a slectlou on creek Queensland. He says it is a sort of pig. For a number of years the wild pigs have been numerous io this locality, aud his theory is that the original or common pig must have amal-gamated to a certain extent with somu ab-original animal, or that the necessities of climate, etc,, have, caused the variety. The captured animal weighs about. 100 pounds, and is pretty fat, with bristly brown fur, small black spots, snout and cars like a pig but the Jaw is furnished with front teeth like a rodent; it has large canines and powerful back grinders. The fore feet are furnished wilh hook-lik- e claws; the hind ones have two hook claws on each hoof. The tail is thick, about a foot long, and highly prehensile, and in a state of rest is u iily carried in what is known as a Flemish coil. The auimal is also furnished with a pouch, which it only appears to use for carrying a supply of food in while it, is traveling to fresh pas-tures. Mr. Le Mortemore says the flesh is excellent, and that it tastes just like veal. In drought the auimal climbs trees and hangs by its tail while it gathers Its food by the hook claws. He intends capturing some live specimens aud breeding from them. - - A Davis Will Case Decision. Hki.ena. Mont., Dec. 20.
