A Good word for the Coyote.

The hanging look Of the coyote as he
slips away from the human sight is the
cause Of the animals bad name. He is
very shy at times, but on occasion sits
unconcernedly by the roadside as one
drives along. He is called sneak, but
he is only sly instead. He has more wit
than any animal except the fox; he is
as courageous in fight with his own
kind as any animal that breathes; he is
patriotic, if one may use the term, in
that he refuses to be domesticated-re-
fuses to leave the life of freedom to
which he is accustomed; he is the best
family man, so to speak, in the world.
The coyotes have been made outlaws
through ignorance, as the state is now
learning.
One need not be called fanatic for
saying that nothing has been made in
vain-that if we knew all about the ma
lures Of the animals or the world we
would pay bounties for preserving
rather than for discriminating them.
That is to say, we would labor to pre-
serve the balance of life established by
nature. There are some things quite as
well worth prospecting for as California
minerals, among the rest California
fauna. Coyotes which have killed more
than 1900 jack rabbits. per day have
been wiped out to secure petty rewards.

Too Many Kinds of Time.

Travellers to Switzerland who have tc
pass through Alsace are raising thei,
old complaint about the bewildering va
riety of the times at the various sta
lions through which they pass. They
leave Calais by French time, they come
to German or mid-European time at
Mulhausen and arrive at Bale by Swiss
time. Surprising they go on into the
Tyrol, there is another change to Aus
TRAN time. Considering that the differ
ences are In some cases all but an hour,
this is no slight puzzle. The establish
ment Of a universal time for Germany,
Austria and Italy was for long time a
favorite idea of Count Won Moltke's,
who saw in the present haphazard
methods an immense possibility of con-
fusion in time of war. or course the
uniformity which was an object with
the great German strategist would be
just the reverse with the French, but it
would be distinct gain to have only
two times in Europe instead Of half a
dozen. ------ --

rative, 1.-THE North and South or the
perils of Spy"
A favorable opportunity is now given
our citizens to take step in the line of
public improvement by having our
streets properly signed and the houses
numbered, and at a. very moderate ex-
pense. Mr.. G. II. Newman of the Boston
Numbering Co., is in town prepared to
do the numbering in a thorough and sys-
tematic manner, having the recommends
ton of Boards of Aldermen and select
men of some of the largest towns in the
New England states as thoroughly com
petent to do the work. The figures are
two inch white metal, or nickel plated,
and will not tarnish, the expense is 25
cents and So cents figure, on the house,
work to be paid for when DONE. In con-
nection with the numbering the select
men proposes to put up the proper signs
at the street corners, so that any given
residence may be easily found by street
and number. The convenience of num-
bering the houses must have suggested
itself to all, and now that there is an OPP
portunity offered to have the work done
by parties we'll skilled in the details es-
sential to the efficiency of the system of
numbering, we hope the citizens will
give the project the encouragement it de-
serves.
