Moscow Savin, the mo-

himself Count Nicholas de Toulouse
Lautrec, has been released from pr1s-
on in Riga by the cars manifesto Of
March 5. When the count came out
of prison he had only three rubles in
his pocket. He has earned 5000 ru-
les so far. A Moscow newspaper is
publishing his diary and cinemato-
graph firm has paid him $1,000 for
films illustrating his life. In Russia
he is the man of the hour.
He is known to the police all over
Europe and America as an exceeding
ly accomplished swindler, who speaks
half a dozen languages and whose
speciality is the passing off on the
guileless of forged bonds and securi-
ties.
He accounts for all the records Of
charges and convictions against him
IN various parts of the globe in two
ingenious ways.
Either they were crimes committed
by a cousin who Is remarkably like
him or he says they were charges
trumped up against him by the Rus
sian secret police in order to get rid
Of dangerous nihilist.
According to his own story, he took

Chester, transportation people
of this city believe that the whale
which was recently seen in Delaware
bay is a precursor of war. They re

came up the Delaware river in 1871
was precursor of the War Of 1919,
and that in 1860, one year before the
outbreak of the Civil war, a whale
came up these waters to Philadelphia.
This latter whale Edward Cullen, a vet

course of which he stated that the

that the caste system in India is
largely regulated by diet. Thus,
those Of the highest caste only eat
vegetarian meals In order to keep
their souls pure. Members of an
other caste are allowed to eat meat

of Animal.

Cottonwood Falls, Kan.-According
to stock raisers and farmers of this
county the coyote seems to be fast be-
coming extinct. The fencing up of
the big pasture districts in this and
neighboring counties, where practical,
ly every acre Is now stocked with cat
tie, has robbed the coyote of his once
free and open range.
Because of his depredations on
young and helpless domestic stock a
bounty has been set on his head and
he has long been a fugitive, hunted
and killed by every farmer. The boun-
ty of dollar which Is paid by the
county for every coyote scalp turned
in probably more than any other
cause Is responsible for the decreasing
wolf population.
In order to get the reward many
farmers, and especially the farmer
boys, not only trap and kill coyotes
whenever the opportunity comes but
have made a practice of hunting the
coyotes dens and robbing them of
their young. For the scalp of a baby

There is some ground for doubling
this account, for he received no medal
and no wound pension. ALI that is
known is that in 1873 he gave up his
commission.
When Savin was on trial at Pau in
1908 Tor swindling he told the same
story of being wounded at Plevna as
