HUNTING TIE SHY COYOTE.
DRIVES ORGANIZED BY WEST.
ERN RANCHMEN. OFTEN RE-
SUIT IN DEATH OF A SCORE.

There Is deal Of coyote hunting in
the west that is not attended by the
niceties Of the club hunt. Ever since
the first pioneers pushed their way
across the great plains the coyote has
been an outlaw, looking for no mercy
at the hand Of man. His predatory
habits have made the animal the bane
of the ranchman, and his howl has
made him the evaporation of the
camper and the terror of the tender
foot Then, too, his habit of skulking
just within rifle range has always
made him a tantalizing target for the
man with the rifle.
In spite of his unpopularity with all
classes Of men, however, the coyote
has managed to hold his own better
than any other animal in the great
west. The antelope is swifter Of foot,
mayhap, but, not having the cunning
of the coyote, has been lured within
rifle range until practically extermin-
ated in many states. The ranchmans
lust for fresh meat, the eastern tour
lists desire for antlers and elk teeth,
and the native who Stays for the mar
ket, have depopulated Colorado and
several other states of their best game.
The bear, cougar and bobcat have felt
the same blighting influence, but the
coyote, still figures in the skyline Of
the average western picture. Some
times he is unwise enough to eat Of
poisoned carcasses OF cattle, but this
Is seldom. Again, he falls a victim to
a coyote drive organized by ranch
men and participated in by townspeo-
pie, tenderfeet, newspaper corresponds
ents and amateur photographers.
These coyote drives are held annu-
ally, or oftener, in nearly all western
communities where the prairie pest
| 40, >icIn crn roQ r.
| ticipated In by several hundred indi-
viduals, will yield sometimes as high
as twenty coyotes and sometimes none
at all. A good deal depends on the
wind, and more depends on the coy
ote's cunning and ability to sprint.

"NAsTY NICE" ETHICS"
Harvard and Yale Assume Detestable
Position.

6p6C1a1 IUS -
Cambridge, Mass, May 30.-It was an
nounced to-day that there will be no Har-
ward athletic team at st, Louis this sum-
mer The athletic committee and the
faculty are understood to be opposed to
a team entering the Olympic college cham
pionships on the ground that the athletes
will be called upon to meet western track
and field performers, whose amateur
standing is under suspicion. Similar ac-
ton was taken by the Yale authorities
some time ago. The edge is taken off
the prohibition, however, by the fact that
nearly all the leading athletes Of both
Yale and Harvard will compete in the va
rious games scheduled for prominent ath-
letic clubs.

Blanche Bates on the conclusion of
her tour on May Z, will sail to Europe
and on returning to this country in
July she will play a four months en-
gagement at the Imperial Theater, St

New York seems to be affected with
the revival fever" Owing to the sue

Among these will probably be ''The

the statement. recently in print, that
these comedians had dissolved partner

New York will shortly have the op-
portunity of witnessing Camille" as
interpreted by two different actresses,
Margaret Anglin and Virginia Harmed.
The former will play in conjunction
with Henry Miller at the Hudson The
ater, and the latter at the Harlem
Opera-house.
Peter F. Daley will be starred by
Klaw and Erlanger next season in THE
Billionaire," to succeed the late Jerome
Sykes.
1.-The Shepherd King" which is on
the ben Hur'' order, was produced
with great success at the Knicker-
booker Theater on April 5. The scenery
is said to be magnificent. and Wright
Lorimer as David was highly COM
mended by the press for his conception
of that difficult role.
Another all-star revival of The Two
Orphans" is contemplated by A. M
Palmer, and Louis James has been
mentioned in connection with it.
