ARRESTED BY BOOKER
PORTO RICAN STUDENT SENT BACK
 TO TUSKEGEE.
African Boy Arrested in Montgomery as an Alien and Bond Fixed by C0m-
 missi0ned at S10O.

United States Commissioner John A. Elmore was yesterday called on to ruie whether native born Porto Rican ts an alien on the soil of the United states when Louis Felipe Saganaria was ar rested on a charge of being an alien in this country and likely to become a burden on the community, at the m stigation of Booker T. Washington.
 The warrant for the arrest of the young Porto Rican was sworn out by one Gomez. agent for the Fuskesee Normal Institute of which Booker T. Washington Is president. Saganaria is negro. He says his mother was a Porto Rican Indian and his father negro His appearance bellies this statement He Is as black as midnight and bears all the marks of African origin. He entered into competitive examination in his native country. which was gobbled up by the expan- sive United States after its overthrow of the proud Castilian and was ad- judged bright enough by the govern ment to be sent to the Tuskegee Nor mal Institute to learn useful arts
 Many young Porto Rican negroes come to the famous school this way. Saganaria came to the Tuskegee 1n- stitute and studied awhile. He says he was not paid for extra time put in at the machine shops as promised and ne nlS0 nffflSetI lO VWohN6OhShy out the knowledge or consent of Booker T. Washington. The Tuskegee authorities say that the dicipline of the school was a tFife too severe for the boy with the long name.
 Saganaria was traced to Montgom- cry, where he had secured employment and was arrected by the Montgomedy police department at the instigation of the school authorities. Yesterday he was arraigned before United States Commissioner Fillmore. He there stated that he was willing to go back to Tuskegee and was taken back there by Gomez The Commissioner placed him under $100 bond, but owing to the fact that he went back to the school. it Is thought that the case will be heard of again.
 Grave doubts were expressed around the government building yesterday as to whether the Porto Rican could have been compelled to go back to Tuske- gee or get out of the country had he resisted the charge It is contended by lawyers that Porto Rico is just as much a part of the United States as Is

maneaters reject all flesh not human. or that the cubs of a maneating tfgress inherit the man-killing propensity.
 Rather is 1t case of contempt for man bred of familiarity, and more oft- en the lust lays hold of the tigress. very likely because in foraging for her cubs Gas she does until they begin to hunt for themselves at months), and in their defense, she has come more frer qrentiy in contact with man, or 1t may be because the female is more numer- ous than the male or because by nature the slyer and more vicious. Certainly she is a fiend incarnate when every sec- ond year she gives birth to cubs. usu- ally two, which do not move about with her until six weeks old, and no doubt her disposition is not improved by the necessity of concealing the youngsters from the tiger, who else would devour them.
 Wrong Ideas About Tigers.
 Popular misconceptions give the tiger extraordinary leaping ability. 1t does not, as habitually painted. leap upon the hack of its victim to crunch the vertebre of it's neck. have seen pan- thers springing on the little barking deer, but the usual tiger method is stealthy stalk, followed by swift rush and seizure of the victims throat,
 It does not feap from twenty-five to 100 feet, as we frequently read. Twelve feet is nearer the average of its jumps when chasing game, and there Is no record of it's jumping streams of over sixteen or eighteen feet in width It is @ bold swimmer and frequent wader.
 It does not give up pursuit of it's quarry on failure of first attack.
 It does not deliver bone-crushing blows with its fore paws. like bruin. although it does give blows that lacer- ate the flesh.
 It does not roar like a lion.
 It does not kill by blood Letting, but by dislocating the neck.
 It can climb a tree, but rarely does so.
 There is also much exaggeration con- corning size and weight. A tiger that measures ten feet from the tip of its nose to the end of its tail Is a big one and above the average. which Is about nine and a half feet.

 "A claim for reasonable gratuity is to be made ab once upon the Dominion government by the widow aud three small surviving children of James B. Colvin, shipbuilder, who died here about 10 days ago of hydropho' ia, caused by the bite Of wolf at White horse three months previous. The wolf had been brought there from Car ibou by members of the Northwest mounted police, and experiments were being conducted with view to improv- ing the hardihoOd of the dog teams by wolf crosses with the huskies.
 "The government officials were fte- quently asked to take greater care in securing the savage anlmsl, but allowed 1t to break loose one night, and Colvin was attacked in lis own back yard, both hands being frigutiuliy manglCd.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES
ANorHE CHANGE IN PRESS
 RATES

The change ia the press rate which practically destroys the combinatior for securing the news of the world thal has existed among the three daily pa pers of Alaska and the Whitehorsa StaI for some time, thus compelling slight reduction in the service when it was proposed to increase it materially, Is distinct disappointment. However, the readers of the Daily Alask'n may be Assur, d that no pains will be spared to give them the very best service that Is possible with the means at the com mand of the publishers.
 It was after 3 o'clock yesterday liter noon when the news was received which put the Al -skan newspaper com binatlon out of business. It took just one hour for the Daily Alaskan and the Juneau Dispatch to arrange for a news service, which, if slightly less in ex- tent, will be even better prepared than that which this paper has been receiv- ing for the last three months.
 It may take some additional time to perfect the plans that are now being worked out. but the people of skagway can rest assured that they get the very latest news and that no event of imLO'- tantance, DO matter where it shall take place, vii. be overlooked.
