WAR ON MAD
COYOTES
A DOZEN FOREST RANGERS DE-
TAILED TO EXTERMINATE THE
BEASTS THAT ARE MAKING
RABIES EPIDEMIC IN THE
SHEEP SECTIONS.

Wallowa, Ore, Jan. 6.4Skilled
hunters will be sent to Wallowa
county to assist in the determination
Of rabid coyotes, as a result of the
widespread prevalence of the rabies
among the sheep and domesticated
dogs according to word reaching
here today. 1t is understood that 70
expert marksmen in the employ of
the forestry service have been Sc
lected They also are well versed in
poisoning and trapping and it is ex-
pected that they will do much to rid
the countryside of the mad coyotes
that have bitten numbers of sheep
dogs, COWS and several persons. 4
number of citizens have come to be
SO concerned over the prevalence of
the rabies that they have temporarily
left the county. 1t is believed that
several thousands of dollars will
have been lost by sheepmen on ac-
count of the death of sheep bitten
by mad coyotes and dogs before the
epidemic is ended.
Among persons who have been bit
ten by rabid animals is John Bosley,
aged seven, and Luther Johnson,
aged 49, Young Bosley was the vic
tim of mad coyote which dashed
into the school yard and sank its
fangs into the lads face, nearly de-
stroying an eye. Later the coyote
bit sheep and pig. Both animals
developed rabies and died Bosley
was rushed to Portland where he
underwent the Pasteur treatment
and is now believed to have been
cured.
Johnson is now undergoing the
Pasteur treatment at Portland He
was bitten by his own dog which
had been attacked previously by a
mad coyote. 7s7

New purposes are constantly enter

Melbourne, Jan. 6.-Prof Laby, of

today declared that the present high

istence of a ring which hcs bound
itself to maintain the price at what
amounts to about 20 times the proper
value of the substance. Prof. Laby
suggested that the pitchblend, which
exists in New Zealand, should be
worked up with view to placing a
supply of radium on the market at a
reasonable rate"

is CALLED
AT OMAHA
WESTERN STATES WILL NAU-
GURATE MOVEMENT TO TURN
THE TIDE OF IMMIGRATION
NOW SETTING TOWARD CANA
DA, TO THE WEST.
UNITED Press LEASED WIRE

Omaha, Neb, Jan. Elm response
to a demand from western governors,
immigration officials and commercial
organizations for an association
which shall devote it's energies to
turning the tide of immigration into
the western states, call is being
sent out from Omaha this week for
a meeting to be held in that city be-
tween January Is and 2S for the pur-
pose of organizing the Western De-
velopment association. AS the meet
ing is called on the advice of some
powerful state and private interests,
the organization promises to become
potential in stopping the tide of peo-
pie going from the Mississippi river
valleys into Canada.
Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming
Utah, Idaho, Montana, Washington
Oregon, Nevada, California and Ari-
zona are the states which will take
the lead in attempting to see that
the new pioneers are turned from the
south and from Canadian northwest
into the most fertile and promising
part of the United States.
The organization of such an asso-
citation for the purpose of devoting the
next few years to the gigantic task
of turning the trend of men and wo-
men toward the distinctively western
states was proposed by the publishers
of the Omaha Daily Bee and the
Twentieth Century Farmer, which pa
pers organized the Western Land
Products Exhibit with such an end in
view. The publishers consulted west
ern governors, heads of commercial
! organizations and railroad men. That
their idea is popular and will result
in a more or less permanent associa-
ton is shown by the following re-
plies received to the inquiry as tC
whether there was demand for such
an organization
James j. HILL chairman of thu

ICE RACES A SUCCESS
Happy Jack and Nettie c Win First
Money.

The first ice race on the Kennebec
river by the Skowhegan Driving Club
came off Saturday afternoon, there
being about four hundred people pres
ent. E. H. Morrill, had by good deal
of enterprise, good quarter-mile
track scraped and at the close of the
race found that some fast records had
been made.
The first race was between Warren
Tuttle's Happy Jack and Morris Gled-
hills Pawling and Bobbie p. Happy
Jack won in three straight heats, his
best being in 35 seconds. There were
seven entries in the 2.40 class and
there was a close run down to the
end of the last heat Marguerite,
owned By Ben Gaylord, took the first
in 33 seconds. Fred Tuskin's Alvin
Wilkes won the second in 331A, and
fourth heat and race. Fred With
ANS Nettie c from Smithfeld
took the third in 331a The
other starters were Pauline, owned by
Charles Day; Fancy Roy, by Charles
Wade of Norridgewock; James
Spaulding officiated as starter. The
judges were Scott Robinson, Fred
Southland and II. F. Skidmore of
North Arson
The local horsemen were greatly i'm
pressed with the two years old chest
nut gelding that E. H. Morrill, put
over the course for exhibition. This
yougnster is by Pilot Nelson, 2.19A
dam by Bay Fearnaught, second dam
by Gray Fearnaught and he certainly
showed his breeding. He made the
quarter in 81 seconds fiat, and had
some in reserve at that Mr.. Morrill,
said that he would jump at the chance
TO match him against any two years
Did in the county, and several of the
spectators allowed that such a COM
bination would be the source of some
money. There will be another matinee
next Saturday afternoon with free
sor-all and two additional classes.
BLANKETS and whips will be given as
Urizes, and they will be there on the
ice at the finish. Entries will close

On Thursday evening, March 16,
Skowhegan is to be favored with the
presence in our Opera House of the B.
f. Keith Stock Company, direct from
Keith's theatre, Portland, and two i'm
portant facts should be mentioned;
first that the leading man, Mr.. Sidney
roler, will have, on March IS appear
ed at the head of this splendid or
ganization in Keith's theatre for one
hundred consecutive weeks, and play
ed over ninety different characters, a
record that any artist should be
proud of; and secondly, that it is
alone owing to the facts that the Bos-
ton Grand Opera Company are to ap-
pear at Keith's on the above date and
that the citizens of Skowhegan by en-
rolling their names on the largest SUBJ
scription list for an entertainment on
record. made 1t possible for the
amusement loving public to witness q
great comedy drama in which good
specialties will be given by several
.alented members of the company. AL
.hough the Keith management will be
put to a heavy extra expense in bring
ing the full acting company and seen
FRY used in the production of Ed
mund Burke" yet the prices are ex-
ceedingly reasonable considering the
fact that Keith's Portland theatre has
double the seating capacity of our
Opera House. and that the best seats
sell for 75c at the evening perform
ances in Portland. See adv on another
