DOGS scoRNED BY COYOTES
Show No Hesitancy In Visiting Chicken
Coops; Five Of the Raiders
Are Trapped.

Grass Valley, Cal.-Five coyotes and
two wildcats were trapped within a
few days in Penn valley by Will Tish-
er. During the past several months
the dogs all over the country have
been muzzled and the coyotes seem to
have realized that their privileges In
the foraging line were increased.
They ventured close to the houses,
and appeared to have no fear OF the
muzzled dogs.
But now that the fear of rabies has
passed, the farmers have removed the
muzzles. and for night or two the
dogs brought down several coyotes, al
though 1t required stir fight in some
instances.
Other farmers in that section have
been successful in trapping the ami
mails, and in addition to Kidding them
selves of these chicken thieves and
pests they will receive a bounty Of
$3.50 each for the coyote scalps.

Plumber Refused License When He
Can Not Remember What
"Sump" Is.

New Harry Segal Of lot
East 115th street, is living proof of
the accepted theory that most men
who WELD facile pen do not express
their views SO well orally and that
the extemporaneous speaker Is not
always literary success.
Segal is plumber. and he did well
In the written examination before the
examining board of plumbers for his
certificate Of competency. But there
were seven other candidates who did
exactly as well as Segal; in fact, in
the same language, which caused the
board to investigate. The result was
that they and the commissioners of
accounts, who took part in the inves-
tigation, believed fraud had been per-
petrated by the eight whose answers
to the questions were the same.
1t was decided that either some one
had impersonated Segal or else he
had a list of the questions asked him
before the examination. The certih-
cate granted to Segal was revoked.
He applied to the supreme court for
a writ o. mandamus directing the ex-
aiming board Of plumbers to return
the certificate to him. Justice Hen
drick denied the application.
Segal was called on when the board
first became suspicious to repeat
orally some of the things he wrote in
his first examination. First he was
asked about certain words that ap-
peared on his examination paper.
Diameter appeared as diametar" IN
the original examination. and on the
oral try Segal spelled II "diamete. :
Friction, which he got right the first
time, appeared the second time rs
"frlcksen.'' Circulation he spelled
scorkoelsen."
Segal explained that his answers to
questions were based on his reading

Start the fire in the morning.
Never talk in jest about other wo-

Try not to arouse his wife's jeal-

my observation has been that
clothes and food count for little with
the right kind of woman if a husband
displays the proper amount of affec-
ton and is considerate of her feelings
and Wishes" Mr.. Wright said recently.
"a man who thinks of the little things
that women prize so much in every
