NOVEL KIND OF iiYENA TRAP
How the Animal is Rendered Helpless
by a Collar of Dried Ok
Hide.

Traps for wild animals are not
necessarily of steel. The author OF
"The Journal of a Sporting Nomdd'
describes hyena trap that is simple
and effective: "Close to the station
at this place I found a novel form
Of hyena trap-a round piece of
dried OK hide as hard as a board,
three feet or 50 in diameter, in which
a very small hole, no larger than a
small apple, had been cut. Radiat-
ing from this hole were cut a series
of V-shaped pieces. The trap was
set as follows: A hole was dug in the
ground about one foot deep and six
inches in diameter. Into this hole a
piece of meat was placed. Then the
OK hide plate was laid over the place
containing the meat, the two holes
being one over the other. The OK
hide was then pegged down with
wooden pegs in three or more
places.
''The hyena, on finding the bait,
forced his head through the small
hole in the OK hide to obtain it, the
cuts in the hide giving way sufi-
GENTLY for that purpose. The beast

The poor brute had a collar securely |
fastened around his neck which he
was quite unable to get rid Of.
"IIe could not run. or walk, and |
even had he been able to go any dis
lance incumbered by such an OBJ
stacle would have brought up short !
in the first patch of bush or grass
he encountered. He was now at the
mercy of the individual who had set
the trap and could be put out of the
way quite easily"

WANT PROTECTION ON
The MEXICAN BORDER
Texans Looking to Governor
COlquitt

Austin, Tex, Feb. 20.-Gov. o. B.
Colquitt, of Texas, sent telegram to-
day to United States Senator Culberson
in which he asserted that "the pres
ent federal policy toward this state is
an outrage and urged that efforts be
made to have additional United States
troops assigned to patrol duty along
the Mexican border.
"If am compelled to take the situa-
ton in hand, 1 will do so vigorously"
said the governor in his telegram.
Definite action should be taken by
the federal government and protection
by garrisons or troops or the govern
ment should advise us that nothing
will be done, and let us look out for
ourselves. We will not hesitate to
protect our people, if We can be ad-
vised that the federal government viii
not do So"
Gov. Colquitt advised Senator Gull
berson that the situation along the
border has been growing worse daily,
and was augmented by the movement
of troops along the frontier to other
points. From all along the Rio Grande
the governor declared, frantic appeals
have been made to him for protection
and that porperty Of the state is en-
dangered by incursions of Mexicans
In several instances, the governor said,
the appeals for aid told Of the raiding
of ranches and farms.
