            WOLVES. – Mr. Wm. Pinkerton, having had a calf killed by the Wolves Friday night, took occasion to put strychnine upon the remains.  Sunday morning a tremendous big Wolf was found dead, a short distance from where he had taken the dose.  More must have been poisoned, as there was a pack of them.                                                                                                       - Waupaca Spirit.
