A Cry From Pasad~rs.

tFrom the Pasid ma Daily Star
A host of Pasadenans will unite with us in
a kick-lons, loud and sulphurous-against
the unreliability of the Los Angeles electric
cars Many of our people visit that city every
dav and depend, more or less, upon the electric
cars to get back to the trains which shall bring
them home. these cars ought to run every
few minutes. and it would be supposed would
make point of connecting with the most
prominent trains that leave the city. But
they do not and whoever depends on them is
liable to be left. Instead of five-minute inter-
walls between the running of the cars, there is
liable to be none along for Is minutes, and
when it Goes come along it will be a little
too late to catch the train you wish to go
home bv. The moral is, take the cable car
give yourself a half an hour-some ething
more than the time necessary to walk ito
get from Main street to the railroad station.
We hope that when the electric cars get to
running to Pasadena they will make better
record than this.

There was gentleman in town today from
Sanger with a half coyote dog following him.
Its mother was a greyhound, but it looked and
acted almost exactly like its ancestors on its
fathers side. Its owner said It was a very fine
hunter and was even swifter than greyhound
in the chase. 1t could bound over the widest
canal with all possible ease, was on friendly
terms with coyotes and could easily go three
days without food

BR.ER COYOTE.
An Animal Whose Scalp IL worth
More Than His Carcass.

An Animal Whoss Scalp IL worth
More Than His Oaroass.
During the past two years. says the San
Francisco Chronicle $4,000 coyotes have
been slaughtered in the state Of California.
Certain parties IL Kern county alone nave
been and are now killing on an average Of
eight coyotes day. The number killed in
that county during the two years is 5.s7S.
The law paying bounty OF 80 for each oy-
ote scalp has provision which requires the
county clerks of the different counties make
out statement every three mouths of the
amount OF scalp claims presented and mail the
same to the state comptroller. sThese state
ments are entered in . book kept for the pur
pose, and form an interesting record Of the TIM
mense slaughter that Is going on Of those
pests of the sheep herder and owner
The largest number killed in any three
months was in Kern county during the quarter
ending December. 1892. when 1850 scalps were
taken. During the quarter just ended 1856
were killed, which shows that in two years
there has been very great falling off in the
number Second to Kern county comes Tulare,
with record OF 4792 In two years, The num-
Der OF the first quarter is 997, and for the last
$50. San Diego follows with a record of 3513,
which falls from 1174 in December, 1892, TO
334 in September, 1894. Modoo has a record
Of 30s7, Fresno 26A3 and San Bernsrdino
lIs4- Other counties which show q large
slaughter of coyotes are Lassen, Los Angeles,
Monterey and San Luis Obispo.
From the Riverside Enterprise.]
AZ Public Administrator George Mr.. Fink
was coming over to Riverside on Monday
afternoon he met with novel adventure.
When driving along the old San Bernardno
road. a short distance this side of Mound City,
coyote suddenly appeared from behind a pile
of rocks and began trotting along by the side
Of Mr.. Fink's cart. The animal kept Mr..
Fink company for some distance in a most
companionable manner. Finally another
team approached and the coyote ran on ahead
to reconnoiter The team passed, and then
the public administrator bethought himself of
the So which generous state pays for coyote
scalps, so he barked to attract the attention of
the animal. and when it turned and pre-
sented its front, Mr.. Frink promptly sent
bullet from his revolver through the beast
AS the latter died across the line. Mr.. Frink
will be compelled to administer on its estate
in San Bernardino county. He says it was a
fine specimen, but not to compare with an
Ell Casco coyote.

Psalm of the dheads.

Psalm of the Baldhea
Tell me not in merry accents
That have an unthatched roof,
Tis the hairy head that lacks sense
Badness Is of thought a proof.
Hair Is vulgar, hair is useless,
And to brush and comb bore,
Making life but dull and juiceless;
need brush and comb no more.
Not for wise men matted hair is,
Black or brown or red or fair;
Let the savage of the prairies
Waste his time in raising hair.
Life is short and hairs are numbered.
And though flies are hardly borne.t
Still at night I've always slumbered
When the nightcap I have worn.
In the worlds broad field of battle.
Who'd be at the barber's call,
Listening to his tiresOme tattle7
Better bare as billiard ball.
Fear no future, baldheaded brother,
You were bald In infant days;
Crave not hirsute on another
Brain 1t Is, not hair, that pays.
Lives Of great men all remind us
That our smooth and polished pates
Leave all hairy heads behind US
Let us thank the favoring fates!
Footprints of Old Times feet walking
No one sees on our smooth crowns;
Mind no more the idle talking
Made by anxious mophead clowns.
Let us, then, o hairless brother!
Proudly through life's pathway roll:
We remember that dear Mother
Earth Is barren at the pole.

Beside tho couch of pain;
To smooth with gentle fingers
The tangled locks again;
To watch beside the dying
In wee small hours Of night,
And breathe a consecrating prayer
When the spirit takes its fight,
A right to cheer the weary
On the battlefields of life;
TO give the word of sympathy
Amid the toll and strife;
To lift the burden gently
From sore and tired hearts,
And never weary Of the task
Till gloomy care departs.
A right to be q woman
In truest woman's work.
If life should be a hard ono.
No duties ever shirk;
A right to show to others
How strong woman grows;
When skies are dark and lowering,
And life bears not q rose.
A right to love one truly
And be loved back again;
A right to share his fortunes
Through sunlight and through rain;
A right to be protected
From life's most cruel blights
BY manly love and courage
Sure these are woman's rightsl

But If the page of truth they sought.
