listening to evidence and arguments
in the habeas corpus proceedings
brought by Mrs. B. Andrino Of Tomb
stone, Arizona, against Mrs. Sarah

sion of her 11-year-old daughter.
The child was taken, while a baby,
by Mrs. Sarah Yates. aunt Of the

married and is asking for her child.
An action for a writ of habeas COR

Last night attorneys for Mrs. Yates
moved that the appeal be dismissed,
but the motion was overruled and the
case heard on its merits
This case will clear the trial docket

ably adjourn to Boise tonight.

How Sharks Detect Carton.

It is a curious thing, and, SO far as
present knowledge goes, quite mex
plicable, how a shark seems to have
an unerring perception OF the pres
ence of carrion. By virtue Of what
sense does he know that at distance
of perhaps a couple Of miles there is
food to be had for the picking up? 1t
can hardly be sight, and to say that
it is the sense of smell presupposes
an olfactory apparatus of such mar
velous delicacy that one good Whit
from an average "harnesscask' would
surely burst the machinery for good
and all; and yet our shark will bolt
a goodly lump of the gamiest salt
pork without so much as wink. No,
it cannot be his nose which leads him.
Now a theory has been put forward
by naturalists that the shark pos
sesses, in common with the Andes
condor, a special sense. or instinct.

Work Of a Beaver Colony.

If the beavers continue their work
on a dam across the North Fork
just above the bridge across the river
east of HUchkiss, they will ulti'
mately cause several thousand dol
lars worth of damages to property in
that vicinity when high water comes
in the spring. At present the little
fellows have nearly twenty feet Of
their work completed and the water
is rushing against it without appreci-
able damage.
Mr.. Thomas Blackwell, who has a
lease on the Metcaff property, wrote
to the State game warden, asking
what can be done about the matter.
the law not allowing beavers to be
killed. The warden replied the beav-
ers belonged to the State, but per-
NIT could be granted for 81 to kill
ten or twelve beavers, providing they
were doing damage, but that the pelts
must be carefully prepared and ship
ped to the warden for sale, where
upon one-half of the proceeds will be
returned for trouble" in catching
them.
A dam, such as beavers build, will
back the water up onto the Metcalf
property and wash away large
part Of the place. Besides that the
beavers are cutting down large
number of trees now on the place.
