NATURAL HISTORY PUZZLE
is A COYOTE A DOG, IN ANY SENSE
OFF THE WORD.
leases Emerson Cover from Charge
Made Against Him.

Because Judge Whallon could not be made
to believe that a coyote was a dog, or could
be called a dog in any sense of the word,
Emerson Cover, a secondhand dealer on
Indiana avenue, was held guiltless of the
charge of harboring a vicious dog in Police
Court yesterday.
Several days ago a coyote which Cove
had tied by a wire in front of his place of
business attacked little Fay Dean, a four
year-old child living at No. 4OS North SEN
ate avenue, and before it could be driven off
by the police had bitten the child severely.
Cover was arrested at the time for keeping
a vicious dog. but Judge Whallon said yes
terday that a coyote, while a vicious animal.
was not a dog, and, as the city had no ordi-
nance covering the keeping of vicious coy
otes, no punishment could be given Cover.
City Prosecutor Hawkins worked hard to
convince the Judge that a coyote was a dog,
but after the trial was over he was forced
to admit that there was a slight difference,
although he could not explain just what
that Slight difference was.

A CENSUS BULLETIN.
Shows Increase Of Population in the
United States.

The census bureau has published as
bulletin a discussion on the increase
of population in the United States as
shown by the census of 1900. The prin-
cipal results of study of these figures
are summarized as follows:
The increase in the population of
continental United States, that is, the
United States exclusive of Alaska and
the recent insular accessions, was 49,
O46,S61, or POI per cent. Only one
country, Argentina, has shown by the
most recent figures more rapid
rate of growth. The present rate of
growth in continental United States is
estimated as double the average rate
Of Europe. 1t is nearly double that of
Canada and exceeds by one-sixth that
OF Mexico and by one-tenth that of Aus.
tralia-
In the decade 1890 to 1900 for the
first time in our national history the
southern states increased faster than
the northern. East of the Mississippi,
however, the northern states as a
group have grown in the last 10 years
somewhat more rapidly than the south.
ern, but west Of that river the south
ern states have increased almost two
and one-half times as rapidly as the
northern, and it is this fact which
makes the growth Of the south as a
whole exceed that Of the north. In
the north Atlantic division the rate of
increase has risen steadily since the
civil war, notable contrast to the
trend in the country as whole.
The region west of the mississippi
increased more rapidly from 1890 to
1900 than from 1880 to 1890, while that
east Of the Mississippi increased in
the latter decade not much more than
half as in the earlier.
The conclusion is drawn that the
increased growth of the east and the
decreased growth Of the west may both
be connected with a probable decline
