The Wicked Badger
How He Was Punished by the
hsbeit--A japanese stery

Long long ago up In the mountain,
there lived an old farmer and his vife
Now, his wife brought his dinner ID
MN IN the fields every day, but 4
badger found II out and came every
day and stole the food.
i OF course this made the old farmer
very angry. but after many trials he
succeeded In catching the badger alive.
He took II home and hung II By the
feet from one Of the rafters In the cell
ing.
Then be said to his wife: 1--WE can
have badger soup. Cook It well and
have 1t ready when I return.
30 be went back to the Helds, and his
wife set about pounding barley In the
mortar, singing while she worked.
The beast was In great distress ana
at length said to the woman:
Spare my Life, good woman. ana I
VIII pound your barley"
The woman was tender hearted. no
she let the badger loose.
But as soon as be was released he
sprang at the woman and killed her.
DE took her shape and made her into
soup.
Just AZ the farmer was about to eat
OF the soup the badger called out:

See her bones under the tables And
the badger ran away.
The old man wept bitterly. and n |
kind old white rabbit who lived near by /
heard him and offered to ayenge his |
wife's death.
"Parch some beans for me. and then
! win 60" So the old man obeyed.
These the rabbit put In his pouch and
went up the mountain.
The badger smeiled the beans and
came to the rabbit. saying:
Give me q handful Of those beans.r
Il WILL" answered the rabbit, ..if you
VIII carry this bundle Of straw for me

why. certainly" answered the
badger, "only want my beans firsts
Not until you have carried the
grass" answered the rabbit.
SO he tied the grass to the badgers
back and made him walk ahead.
Then he struck match and set FIRE
10 the grass. The badger heard the
match and asked what the noise was.
out the rabbit turned of the question.
Then when the badger smelled smoke :,
be again grew uneasy. but the rabbit
lgain soothed him.
But soon the fire spread and burned

But In time the burns healed, al

Denver, Jan. 10.-Standing beneath
the draped folds of an American flag
while the walls about him and the
floor beneath him trembled in response
to the cannon that roared salute in
his honor, Alva Adams was at noon to-
day inaugurated as governor of the
state of Colorado. At his side was the
athletic form of Ex-Governor Jas Pea
body, who will tomorrow inaugurate
the most energetic contest that Colo
RADIO has ever seen for the right to fill
the office that Governor Adams has
Just sworn to administer to the best
of his power
The Inauguration ceremonies were
simple in the extreme. Arm in arm
the two men, Peabody and Adams,
entered the house of representatives
which was packed almost to suffoca-
tion. Lieutenant Governor Haggott
who presided over the joint session of
the legislature greeted both men as
they stepped on the rostrum with a
shake of the hand, and seated Cover
nor Peabody on his right and Cover
nor-Elect Adams on his left.
Chief Justice Gabbert then admins
tered the oath of Office and tsc lieuten-
ant governor requested the Incoming
crowd and the outgoing crowd to ex-
change seats. These formalities over,
Governor Adams delivered his inaugC-
raj address in which, among other
things. he pleaded for ballot reform.
All Colorado now looks forward with
the greatest interest to the outcome Of
Ex-Governor Peabody's contest for the
Office of governor.

WAR RlIMORS
PROVE TRUE

London, Jan. 10.-The active prep
arations already reported to have
been made both in Turkey and Bull
gaTia for a possible war this year are
fully confirmed by a private letter re-
ceived in London from a minister ac-
credited to Balkan courts. This min
lister, who has just completed a tour
of the Balkan capitals, writes that the
Turkish and Bulgarian governments
are energetically preparing for event
ualities. Large shipments of arms
and ammunition have been made and
recruits from Asia Minor are arriving
at Salonica weekly for service in the
Turkish army. The Bulgarian and
Greek bands in Macedonia are increas-
ing daily and are fighting each other
and the Turks. This three-cornered
guerilla war threatens to assume the
bloodiest phase in the spring.
But" concludes the minister,
whether or not there will be real war
between Turkey and Bulgaria in the
spring l am not prophet enough to say.
Unless certain powers think the time
is opportune war may be postponed
this year as last, but in any event We
are a year nearer the inevitable con-
fict"

if Minnedosa, in the Capadian North

In the Dakotas it ranged anywhere

of Frederick The Great

Washington, Jan. 10.-What was at
first thought to be a serious attempt
to blow up the statue of Frederick the

investigation tends TO demonstrate
that the affair was in the nature of
fake perpet rated with a view Of Gre
ating a sensation rather than defacing
or damaging the statue. The investi-

were incapable of producing serious
results.
