Here is part of a law which
many of our readers may not
know to be in existance: If
any person or persons shall put
any part of the carcass of any
animal into any river, creek,
pond, street, alley, lane, lot, field,
meadow or common; or if the
owner or owners therefore, shall
knowingly permit the same to re-
main in any of the aforesaid
places, to the injury or the
health or annoyance of the citi-
zens of this state or any of them,
every person so offending shall
on conviction thereof before any
justice of the peace of the county
be fined in sum not less than
one dollar nor more than S25; and
every "a hours during which
said owner may permit the same
to remain thereafter shall be
deemed an additional offense
against the provisions of this
act"

The AtchiSon Globe has this to
say regarding the get rich
quick schemes" with which peo-
pie are being constantly victimiz-
ed: When times are good, a
great many loafers appear with
millionaire schemes. And the
funny part of it is that so many
people bite. Here is good rule:
Any scheme that promises more
than six per cent per annum, is
dangerous. Good investments
that pay six per cent are rare.
Therefore when an agent offers
you stock that will pay you forty
per cent, chase yourself out of
his presence.

Idaho Poisoas Coyotes.

State Game Warden Stephens
received recently a large amount
of strychnine from Philadelphia,
which will be used by the de-
partment for the poisoning of
coyotes and other predatory ami
mails. The expenditure for this
poison is the first to take place
under the new law, which placed
the sum of s., 900 in the hands of
the game warden for use in the
destruction of wild animals.
So far as known, this is the
first time in the history of the
United States when a state start
ed in along this line to protect its
game and stock interests. While
there have been company hunters
here in Idaho, hired by local
stock associations, there has
been no official recognition of the
hunting of wild animals as a
state function The outcome of
the experiment is to be watched
with great deal of interest, for
the bounty system is admittedly
failure, in that it stops short of
determination both because of
destroying a profitable industry
that of growing wolf scalps-
and then the hunters cannot
make enough out of the business
to keep at it when the numbers
of the noxious animals begin to
decrease. Idaho Statesman.

having been done by room workers.
S. Kodel, 107 Wilmington street, re-
ported to the police that his house had

OPERA COMPANY SWINGS
FROM THEATER TO RINK

It's back to the rink for the San Carlo
Opera company, after all. The company
will sing there two weeks, beginning
March 5. This is final-so say the COM
pany's agent. Several shifts were made
in the situation yesterday, and every
one was hopping about like hen on a
hot griddle all day First it was the
Mason, "off agin, on agin, Finnegin, >
all day.
Last night the announcement was
made that the company would positively
go to the rink, and that money was UP
to prove it. What the reports will be
today no human being can tell. Monday
night it was just as aSsertively given
out that the company would be in the
Mason as it was strenuouSly declared
last night that 1t wouldn't. Predictions
as to where it will be by tonight are
like making book on a fixed race at
Ascot.
If the company goes to the rink the
company underlined for March at the
Mason, THE County Chairman" will
probably play there after all.
The agent of the opera company says
several thousand dollars will be eX-
pended in making the rink fit for the
show; that it will seat more than the
Mason, all on one floor, and that prices
will be SO to 81; that fifteen operas VIII
be given and that the scenery will be
sent on in sections to be adapted to the
skating rink.
The season opens Tuesday, March 5,
with La Gioconda," in which Madame
Nordica and Signors Constantine and
Sigurola appear; Wednesday, "Rigo-
letto," with Miss Nielsen and Signors
Constantine and Camparani; Thursday,
'Traviata" (Nordica); Friday, Barber
of Seville" with Miss Nielsen, Constan-
tino and Camparani; Saturday matinee

SUSPEND SON Of
CITY COUNCILMAN
PatroIman Robert HeaIy Must Do PEN
ance for Six Months for Conduct
Unbecomng a Police
Officer

Patrolman Robert f. Healy was sus-
pended for six months by the board OF
police commissioners last night for
conduct unbecoming an officer. Healy
was charged with being intoxicated
while on duty
Healy stated to the board that he
had been sick for some days and was
in no condition to work, which was his
only excuse.
Mayor Harper said to the accused:
This is a bad proposition. l am
sorry for you and for your father, who
holds an honorable position in the city.
You, as his son, should not have put
him or yourself in this embarrassment
1t ought to appeal to you to make you
careful. The position of patrolman in
Los Angeles is an honorable one and
should not be degraded"
Calling for opinions, the mayor asked
Commissioner Cole what ne thought.
1.-THE moral effect of these cases is
had and it is necessary for the chief
and captains to maintain discipline, y
said he. "If we condone these offenses
discipline will fall to pieces. We are
building up a force that is creditable
graces his job disgraces himself too
And while we sympathize with him, 1t
looks as though he had lots of warn
ing. He made a manly statement and
admitted his fault"
Commissioner Schenck said when SOL
diers on duty got drunk they We're shot
and a policeman's work was much like
a soldiers. He had lots of men in his
employ and while he hated to be Sc
we're, at times 1t was necessary for dis
cipline.

FOOTBALL PLAYERS ARE
PRESENTED WITH SWEATERS

The members of the Polytechnic foot
ball teams, both the Intercollegiate and
Rugby, who played for the school last
season, were presented yesterday with
jerseys as a token of remembrance
from the student body of the school,
The students gathered in the audito-
rum and the jerseys purchased by the
Polytechnic board of control were pre-
scented by Lawrence Levin, president
of that organization. AS each boy came
to the front of the platform to receive
his Jersey he was loudly applauded
by the students and those boys who
took their seats without making a
speech after having received their
gift, were commanded by shouts Of
"speech, speech" to come back.
Immediately following the presenta-
tion of the jerseys Mr.. Francis came to
the platform and announced that nom
nations for the officers of a new board
of control were in order.
Mr.. Wilke arose and In very ele-
giant Endorsement nominated for the
office of president Paul Framton, one of
the school baseball men and general
faVorite of the students and faculty.
Following Framtons nomination Ev-
aret Charlton made a speech indorsing
and nominating Victor Hecht, the boy
who has run the schools entertain
ment course for the past term. Hecht
is very popular fellow and much liked
by the students, but 1t is thought
Framton will be elected, as Hecht has
already served a term on the boa of
control.
Miss Julia Murray was the only can
didate nominated for the Office of vice
president and Clement Reis was nom
mated with Endorsement by Andrew
Clifford.

dents win be held today in the diff
