As a matter of fact, states the New York Tribune, Diehl rather prefers the wooden leg to the other, for, as he says: “I picked out the wooden one myself and it’s | @ peach.” Such an excellent member of so- ciety is Diehl’s wooden leg that its owner is able to walk with scarcely a perceptible limp.

As soon as Diehl could spare time from the holding of his sides he remarked to the crest- fallen clerk: “That's all right, young feller, but y’ want to be careful how you start to pull off my leg. Diehl got his shoes at a rate that he himself “real rea sonable.” GIRL KILLS A WOLF. admitted was Armed with a Hatchet, She proached the Snarling Beast and Despatched It, Ap- ing at Leola, S. D., had an exciting ad- venture with a large gray wolf and proved herself a heroine. Gray wolves are numerous on the great cattle ranges west of the Mis- souri river, and they are noted for their fierceness. The gray wolf in question evidently had strayed from SHE RAISED THE HATCHET. its accustomed haunts by crossing the Missouri river on the ice. It appeared the other morning in the dooryard of the house where Miss Hoover resides and fiercely attacked a large shepherd dog. The animals engaged in a life and death struggle and their snarling and snapping were enough to affect the nerves of evena man. Finally the dog succeeded in getting somewhat the better of its an- tagonist. At this juncture Miss Hoover, in- stead of fleeing to the attic or cellar for safety, appeared on the scene. She was armed with a hatchet and, ap- proaching close to where the dog and wolf were battling for life, she raised the hatchet and dealt the wolf such a blow that it was killed instantly.

Aiter all is said and done, the work of the ex- perts who have planned the future Washington ty of delight had the basis of ’ Shepherd’s work to go upon. That is how he derived his sobriquet of “boss.” For three years he was the absolute ruler of Washington, and in that time spent $40,000,000 in making it what it is to- day Alexander H. Shepherd, says the Philadelphia Press, is a native of ington. He was born in the y 13, 1835. His parents were in ordinary circumstances. His ancestors for 150 years had lived in this country; some of them fought in the revolutionary war. Shepherd himself was for a time a soldier in the late war. His father became well-to-do before his death, which | enabled the bey te obtain a pretty He entered Colum- But the executor of id, stole the money nder started to learn | a trade to help support the family. | Then he became a shoe salesman, and later learned to be a plumber and | gas fitter.

Two years after, in 1862 he became presi- dent of the body. he was a member }of the levy court in 1867, and presi- | dent of the Citizens’ Reform associa- | tion in 1870. Then cor s turned | Washington and the District of Co- | | the board of common lumbia into a territorial government. | He was appointed governor of the | district, and president of the board of public works. He had always borne the reputation of being a pro- gressive, liberai, yet determined man. Washingéon at this time was a drowsy, half-northern, half-southern ity. It had been laid out on liberal lines but had never conformed to them. It had no adequate building laws. Its streets were mud holes in winter and dust distributors in summer. Shepherd determined to alter this. He tad the power and he proceeded to "se it. One morn- ing the people of the old town wak- ened to find hundrs.'s of men at work on the streets. It was the advance guurd of “Boss” Shepherd's legions. Within the next three years, from June 1, 1871, to Juee 24, 1874, “Boss” Shepherd ruled }°sehington with a rod of iron. Men who’ began by praising him ended by cursing him. As improvements grew taxes in- creased. Many men were financially ruined by the burdens imposed upon them. Newspapers in other cities were the only avenues for the male- dictions of the citizens; the local papers were bound hand and foot by the influence of the “boss” or si- lenced by a knowledge that he was doing the right thing in improving Washington, although it was unpop- ular at the time. Nothing halted his determination. The city became a hive of municipal industry. All streets of any impor- tance underwent transformation. They were graded, sewered and paved, and it is now admitted that the work was well end admirably done. Some idea of the improve- ments that Shepherd made in Wash- ington may be gleared from these interesting figures. He more than 10,000 trees, und paved 115. miles of streets, besides laying 207 miles of sidewelss. His army of men dug and carted away 3,340,000 cubic yards of earth. He had con- structed 417,196 feet of pipe sewers of 12 to 15 inches in diameter; four miles of sewers from 10 to 30 feet in diameter and over five miles of sew. ers from 3 to 7 feet in diameter. He laid 30 miles of water pipe and near- ly 60 miles of gas pipe, In addition to this he constructed 39 miles of roads in the suburbs of the city. planted } “~~ HOTELS—BALTIMORE} SARATOGA HOTER, A.
