CAPTURING RATTLERS
PLEASANT RECREATION

Colonel Henry Yule, the last of the
two soldiers in Klickitat who marched
with the late General Sherman in the
"march to the sea, is living on a
homestead in Cedar Valley, says a dis
patch from Lyle to the Oregonian
For diversion and amusement from
Cedar Valley farming, the Colonel
occasionally captures rattlesnakes and
turns them over to an agent at Block
house, who is making collection for
an Eastern show.
Describing recent capture of two
snakes, Colonel Yule said: 1.-THE two
were evidently mates, from the num-
ber of rattles each possessed. They
held thei heads erect, and were ready
to strike. After much effort, | Gagged
them and turned them over to Agent
Kinder at Idle Rest, near Blockhouse. I"
AS the Klickitat country becomes
settled, the rattler is disappearing.
At Wrights, when Homer c. Campbell
was building Klickitat's first railway,
the blast of coyote hole threw out
80 rattlers to their death. Today the
rattlesnake is rarely seen along the
railway on the KiIckitat River.

Bears Foot Creates Mystery.

A small boy while playing in a
vacant lot on the Heights last Satur-
day discovered what at the time was
supposed to be a human hand. The
object was brought TO the city prison
and turned over to Marshal Robert
Lewis. Indeed, it bore every resem-
lance to the hand of human body.
and in order to account for it, those
who examined it were working out
some weird tragedy. A peculiar feat
ure of il was that not one of the fore
knuckles remained. However, the
mystery was explained when a
Heights taxidermist called the mar
shal and explained that it was bear $
foot that he had thrown away. Some
one had brought him the skin that he
might mount it. He had removed the
fore knuckles in order to save the
claws Of bruin.

ArTIUIIDE TOWARD ATHLETICS.

So great has the interest Of the
students Of the high schools and col
leges Of the country centered in the
YEARLY athletic events that clearly
Defined reaction fis taking place.
While no one disputes the benefits OF
healthy sports and the greater ease
with which a man or woman physically
fit copes with the mental problems OF
life as compared with the individual
weak in body. the tendency OF the
American youth thas been toward the
attitude Of the hero worsnipper, and
the athlete has been the hero. Sehol-
arship, while always thing to be
proud Of, has unwittingly been lost
sight of. The athletic events have
been made the great events Of the
year and the participants have been
made the too popular idols OF their
fellows. Instead of to scholarship,
the laurels of honor societies have
gone too often to the members Of foot
ball teams. AS a result the real stu
dent has been discouraged and the
work Of educational institutions has
suffered.
But the attitude is changing, as 1t
should, athletics are not to be deserted.
Manly sports are rather to be encour-
aged, but from a sane viewpoint.
Games with rival Institutions have
their worth from the fact that they
increase col!egesspirit and loyalty and
aid in the building Of patriotism. The
idea, however, that the main thing in
a scholastic career is to become an
athletic hero, has been found to be a
perverted one. The position has often
been an asset, or might well have
been made one, for the fortunate
possessor. But many times the devo-
tion Of time toward attaining it has so
led from other things that he has been
uanable to make use of the advertising
which it has given him.
The change in attitude is being man
ifested everywhere. Only last week
the ruling of the local school board
was an evidence. The predominant
sway of athletics has been noticed
by patrons, who have come to demand
that their children should have other
ambitions than those along athletic
lines. The wise student is he who
endeayors to strike the happy medium
of the ancient Greek and to participate
in sports enough to increase his bodily
strength and at the same time give
greater capacity to his mental powers.

HOSPITAL LIST AT
WEST POINT Is TOO
LARGE FOR COMFORT.

WEST POINT, Nov. 15.-With the
navy game only two weeks away the
army team is in Il somewhat crippled
condition, and yesterday the majority
of the varsity material was on the side
lines. Arnold did not get into the
scrimmage, and, although Benedict re-
ported after several weeks layoh, he
was only allowed to run through sig
mails. Walmsley played Arnold's place
at guard and then relieved Seibert at
centre. Purnell going in at guard.
Hyatt played a short time and was re-
placed by Reyes.
IT now looks as if Dear might not get
into the navy game, and Hodgson Is
being worked up for the place at full
back. Hodgson has proven a good man
in handling punts and in running them
back he is Deans equal. although his
punting is not up to the work that
Dean can do.
Hodgson left the game early yester-
day with a wrench to his ankle, but
Trainer TuthilI said it was slight.
Hobbs, in making an end run. doubled
his ankle under him and had to be re-
placed. Keyes made some nice runs
and twice tried for a drop kick from the
twenty-yard mark. but missed both by
a narrow margin.
