Fewer reports have come from Germany regarding spies. It is said, however, that many Russians have been detected in Germany. The Russian espionage system is in many ways superior to all others. Russian spies in Austria have been of great assistance to the czar’s army chiefs. In all the countries at war passports have been stolen by spies and the signatures studied so that the holders can produce passable imitations. Spies have even been caught with their own photographs pasted over others in passports and with the official stamp on the photographs counterfeited. When the spies are captured and sentenced, they meet death bravely. That is part of their creed. Soldiers loathe the task of shooting women, but such is the law of war. All accounts of the executions of women state that they have died as bravely as the men, with no appeal and no complaint in giving their lives for their country. Some Sleeper, This Fellow. After Eugene Hyland and Scott Anderson had searched the pockets of Paul Busselet, whom they found lying in the gutter at Sansome and Washington Streets, San Francisco, Cal., early in the morning, one grabbed him by the heels and the other by the shoulder and tossed him over a fence into a vacant lot. When the pair turned around, they were looking into the muzzle of a revolver in the hands of Policeman Lenhardt. At the city prison Lenhardt charged the pair with attempted robbery. Busselet, whom they tossed over the fence, was not even awakened by the rough treatment and was reported by the officer still sound asleep when the case of the accused pair was called in court.

What’s your name?” “Wolf, I say; Adolph Wolf, of South Superior.” After the little misunderstanding had cleared away, W. J. Leader, county clerk, at Superior, Wis., gave county and State orders for ten dollars each to the applicant for bounty money. Wolf shot his wolf inside the city limits, and was given a permit by Mayor Konkel to collect the bounty. Alfred Hillpipre, of the town of Superior, also was granted bounty money on a wolf he killed along the Tower Road, south of the city limits. Some Big Potatoes.
