Some are wicked, some dangerous, others rich in the curious assimilation of centuries of life. Once upon u time ex-convlcts and thugs of a Siberian city of 120,000' organized themselves into u "vigilance" committee, and after procuring unlimited nower from the government, fixed the police and embarked upon an era of crime that has never been duplicated. They shot rich merchants und called them suspects, pillaged houses on pretexts of searcn arid spilled unprotected blood throughout the province. That city wuh Irutsk, Siberia, which, a few years ago, maintained the highest known crime average on .earth. .Five hundred murders were committed every year. One in 50 murder ere was arrested, and less than one-half of these were convicted. So far as students of crime can find out, this Siberian area of wickedness is still the worst in the world. The little steel town of Clary, Indiana, and the capital of Australia are examples of "made to order" cities. Damascus is still the oldest known city in the world. This colorful collection of clay and rock was called "The Kye of the Fast" even la-fore Abraham; it was known far und wide as a center of trade and travel. The oldest ruined city in the F.astern hemisphere is Nineveh, ancient ami wicked capital of Assyria. Higtoi y records that it was a place of importance as early as 2,500 11. (1. The fall of Nineveh, which left civilization a theme for story and song, in (>()<> H. C. und the consequent d'stribution of the Assyrian empire made Babylon, Nineveh's old time rival, supreme in the east. Whether the ruined cities of Central und Southern America can claim a higher antiquity than Babylon or Nineveh archeologists have been unable to discover. Tucson, Arizona, is easily the most ancient city in the United States, antedating St. Augustine, Fla., by some l.'l years. Its charter, issued in Spain in 1552 and mislaid for more than dOO years, was recently found. Mayesville Man Killed Spartanburg, Feb. 2d.?

Cox, formerly superintendent of the Upper Missigaippi Itiver Wild Life and Fiah Refuge, has reported to the Biological Survey of the United States Department of Agriculture, an example of the way in which the fox adapts itaelf to the ways of civilised mankind. Lit the Northwest,' when the early hnows of winter come, hunters and nature lovers observe that fox tracks often run along a telegraph or telephone line for some distance. Mr. Cox believes that the foxes! have learned that at such times they are Hkcly to find easy hunting below the wires'because of the number of nightflying birds that strike them in flight. Either the birds are killed outright or the collision breaks their wings or otherwise cripples them, leaving them an easy prey to the hunting fox. Mr. Cox says that the millions of miles of overhead wires in this country, particularly telephone and telegraph wires strung across rivers that run southward in the line of the an rual migrations, are responsible for the death* of great numbers of birds. It is common along some such lines to find dead and crippled birds below the wires every morning in the migratory season. The silvery pathway of the river is a favorite guide for flying birds. Prairie chickens, ducks, geese, several varieties of grouse, ynd many smaller birds are frequent victims. Hawk^s are largely' immune because they fly by day, and owls because they fly slowly.
