indian KILLS A
MOUNTAIN LION

Mountain lions are not frequent
IN Ely and the one placed on ex-
hibition in the window of the
Steptoe Drug company yesterday
afternoon is quite likely to attract
considerable attention.
It was killed by Indian Charlie
near Moorman's ranch about three
weeks ago, after it had attacked
and killed hors. and was feast
ing on the carcass of COW it had
also killed.
The animal was a big one and
measured nine feet from his nose
to the tip of his tail and was
apparently an old one that had
successfully kept far away from
the haunts of man for a good
many years, and it is presumed that
it was forced by the recent storms
to approach nearer to the ranch,
in order to obtain food, which is
less plentiful in the hills since the
SHOWS have covered the ground

STARTLING PREDICTIONS.

Here is food for thought which
will be interesting to the many
who study conditions and the trend
Of the times.
There will be no children in
the United States under years
OF age in the year 1920. Babies,
accordingly, will have disappeared
from this county as early as 2O15,"
This is the mathematical conclu-
sion Of Professor Walter f. Wilcox
OF Cornell university, announced 10
the American Statistical association
last Monday afternoon.
The only hope of securing babies
in the United States after 1920,
according to Professor Wilcox's cal
culation. is in possible importation
from France. He says France will
continue to have babies so years
after the United States has quit.
There is proportionately more
race suicide in the Unated States
than in France" said Professor
Wilcox.
An endowment for the stork was
recommended to the American So
Geological association by George FL
hot Howard, professor of sociology
in the University of Nebraska. In
his address on the Social Control
of Domestic Relations" he declared
the state should honor motherhood
by endowing mothers.
Parents who raise families he
said, "are entitled to payment and
security from the state, the same
as the soldier and the Judge and
any other public servant. The
woman who gives a child to the
state should be allowed an income
by the state for taking care of that
child. That would make the mother
the ruler of the home. That would
be social justice.

COEUR D'ALENE
SHOWS BIG GAIN
INCREASE IN POPULATION IS
OVER ONE THOUSAND
PER CENT.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-while
the population of Idaho increased
1913 per cent in the last ten
years, the cities of the state hav-
ing a population in excess of 5000,
increased 24S.S per cent. Statis-
tics of the thirteenth census an
nounced recently, show five cities
in this class. compared with one in
1900.
these cities contributed 1876 per
cent of the 1882 increase in pop
ulation of the state.
Large increases were made in all
the five cities. Twin Falls was not
in existence in 1900 and no COM
parison therefore is possible. Occur
d'Alene made the remarkable per-
centage of increase of 1882 per
cent. The growth of the other CT
ties was: Boise, 1913 per cent;
Lewiston, 1871 per cent, and Poca-
tello, 1852 per cent.

JUDGE swEENEY's LIBEL LAW


Jimmie Sweeney, a nice young
man who is judge on the supreme
bench of this state, has announced
that he is going to have a bill
passed by the legislature making
criminal libel cause for justifiable
homicide.
Editors Montrose and Smith of
Carson have each purchased parts
of the old state armament. Doug,
lass Shelor of the Reno Weekly
has mounted his press on a How
itzer frame; Jimmy Haley of Ely
has ordered Maxim automatic, and
Billy Booth of Tonopah has sent
for an ancient bow gun that will
shoot darts. Other editors over
the state are resurrecting all kinds
OF old artillery. The Prospector
hereby serves notice that it intends
to file on the corral near Phoebe
and work up the contents into
bombs to be kept handy for the
approach of any calumnied enemy.
Brothers, our only recourse now
is to shoot a man first and roast
him afterward. This will be "jusii
fable" also, for the common law

himself to be in grave danger h

THE Roy AND THE SYSTEM.


This is the story of the boy, the
bank and the system.
The boy came into the bank and
laid half dollar with his bank
book on the receiving teller's win
dow.
I'VE don't receive deposits Of
less than a dollar" said the teller
The boy yielded reluctantly to
the system and drew back, But he
did not leave the bank. He crossed
the corridor and seated himself on
settee.
The teller noticed him sitting
there, and also noticed the reflect
i've look on his face.
The boy waited for some time,
thinking it over. Finally he arose
and went to the paying teller's
window A moment later he con-
fronted the receiving teller.
Il want to deposit this dollar
and-a-half," he said.
The teller grinned
The boy had just drawn a dollar
from his little balance and was us
ing it as an entering wedge for
the rejected half dollar.
And so the system was beaten
by the boy, and a considerable ac-
cession of bookkeeping labor was
the price of defeat.

MORE FEDERAL
SESSIONS ARE ASKED

The attorneys throughout the state
are again working to have the
United States government arrange
to have the federal judge of Ne
vada hold court in more places
than in Carson City. They say that
he should hold court in Reno, Gold
field and Elko, three different parts
of the state, as well as in Carson,
and that it would save expense,
time and trouble in litigation. The
claim is made that it would be of
much benefit to business men, who
have to go to Carson for jury serv-
ice in the federal court, and would
also save litigants much time and
expense. A petition will be sent
to congress concerning the change.
