CHARIVARISTS ARE COYOTES.
Mrs. Newly-Wed Thinks Wolves Are
Boisterous Boys and She "Sets EN-

Up Handsome"
Report I'm from northeast of
Miller of the appearance in the neigh
borhood of some large timber wolves.
the first ones seen there for seve.al
years. Coyotes, or small wolves, are
more plentiful this year than for sew
eral years. 1t is believed that a bill
will be got through the legislature
this winter to offer a larger bounty
for wolves.
A bride from the East just snug
gled down for the winter in the prai-
RE home of her Dakota husband, was
greatly scared by the bowling of
these coyotes. Her husband was deaf
and when they appeared behind hill
the first night after her arrival and
began their terrible yelling and bark
ing, which to a person not accustomed
to such noises seems like a dozen
brass bands breaking out, though
there may be only a half dozen
wolves, she supposed it was a sere-
made party and prepared a big feast
OF and %doughnuts for the
"boys,' as she called them. They
failed to come any closer, SO she
finally set the goodies out in the back
yard SO that the serenaders might
help themselves during the night.
The next morning sure enough the
cakes and pies were gone, but when
the same great bowling, with severa
recruits adding to the noise, came the
next night, the bride realized the stu
alton and refused to set 'em up any
more.

Of the whole matter at a conference
with the president Saturday.
Department officials who talked on
the subject yesterday said that the
case was a very plain n and no
court could fail to sustain a bill in
equity when filed by the department.
1t Is because of the determination
of the government to proceed at once
with its strong hand that the mine
and smelters are afraid hat
an injunction would either cause
grave and expensive changes in their
ways of doing business, or restrict
their output, which would cause a
loss running up into the millions. A
big fight is therefore expected when
the bill in equity is filed.
The ability of the trust to fight the
government is only measured by it's
money, which is practically unlimited.
If the smelters are actually closed
down from 10000 to $4,000 men will
be thrown III of work and the output
of the company immensely decreased.
