His Habits and His Habitat-Hunts in the Night-Does
Some Service and Great Deal of Harm.

rauder is. He knows that the coyote
is paying him an unlimited visit as is
his way, and If he arises and takes his
more or less trusty gun and sallies
forth in search of his enemy, he will
do well if he but catches a glimpse of
the fleet-footed, quick-witted robber.
Long before his arrival at the scene
of the raid, most likely, the wiley coy
Ote will have taken the return trail
with his fat fowl in his watering jaws,
il he has been fortunate in his efforts,
and if not successful, then he goes as
he came, empty of provisions and cor
respondfngly disheartened. When the
dish of his preference is not to be had
he will turn to other If less enticing
viands. At times he is a vegetarian,
eating pumpkins and the like; again,
he is a Unitarian, and the rancher's
vineyards and orchards will receive
his attention. Yet it is a question in
the minds of many whether the occa-
sionai fowl that the coyote purloins,
or the small amount of vegetables and
fruit compensates him for the bene-
fit he returns in destroying many of
the ranchman's greatest enemies.
The coyote will run down and kill
the Iong-eared jackrabbits, whose
sharp teeth and large appetites do SO
much harm, and, too, the smaller cot
tontail who. does his share of damage.
He destroys many ground squirrels,
gophers, mountain rats and other
pests.
At one time, some years ago, the
coyote was hunted by horsemen and
bounds, as the fox is hunted in other
were kept for that purpose, though
fcXhounds were also used. In recent
| years the cutting up of a great deal
! of territory into small ranches, and the
/ building of towns and villages has put
an end to organized coyote hunts with
horses. Near the towns the coyote
stays well back in the hills during the
! daytime, and ohly descends into the
valleys when darkness has obscured
! the land and he may in it's friendly
shelter enter the precincts of man I'M
noticed Then he is stealthy, making
no noise, for he realizes his danger,
and kaows that if he would be safe he
must be quiet
The coyote is never fat nor pros
porous in appearance, but rather thin
to gauntness, hungry-.ooking and
wretched in his being So if one may
judge by his looks as to how good his
living is and then deduct the wild
game from his bill of fare, il does not
appear to leave a great balance that
the rancher may hold him to account
for
We may perhaps wander among the
hills and in the canyons for long with
out seeing much of the coyote though

Berlin.-To the horror and disgust
% Kaiser Wilhelm, Crown Princess
Cecelie has announced her intention
to give up life in palaces and castles
and live thereafter in hotels More
trouble seems ahead for the royal
family, as both the kaiser and mis-
daughter-in-law are strong minded
persons. and the kaiser is determined
that the old tradition about royalty
living in castles shall not be broken.
If trouble comes over this little do
nestle difference the kaiser will blame
the Princess of Pless for it all. The
Princess of Pless, who is regarded as
one of the most beautiful women in
all Germany, put the idea in Cecelie's
head. She has been living in a hotel
for some time and thinks this is the
only way for a royal person to live.
Not long ago, in tete-a-tete with the
crown princess, she dilated upon the
joys of hotel life something in this
wise:
My dear Cecelie, you are missing
half of the Joy of living. I, too, have
lived in castles and palaces, but it
was only when my husband and took
up life in a hotel that really began
to live. 1t is wonderful-no house
hold cares, no worry about maids, no
planning Of great dinners, etc. l can
give the most elaborate dfnners and
the smartest 5 o'clock teas on just
enough notice to send out my invita-
lions or to call my friends.
Then / know Just what these az
fairs cost, including flowers, wines
and cigarets. Why don't you try it?
If you did you would not exchange
this free, happy life for all the palaces
you now have or can ever possess"
Needless to say, the remarks Of the
Princess Of Pless made a deep i'm
preston on the crown princess, who
has Travelled enough 10 know that no
tel life has some very distinct advan
tages That very day she took the
crown prince into her confidence and
painted a glowing picture Of hotel life
winding up with a request that he
shut the castles up and take an apart
ment of six or eight rooms in some
first class hotel
The crown prince liked the idea

Frederick Roland in Los Angeles

IlmeS.)
Skulking along the hillside, or
sneaking through the canyon, the coy
ote is lonely, rather pitiful figure
in the light of day, hated and humiliat-
ed, despised and despoiled, hunted
and shot at, with a price upon his
head, an outlaw without redress, 1t
would seem that his life is not hap
Ply one. But when the darkness of
night has settled over the land, then
does he gather courage as he prowls
along the trails or through the brush.
Taking his station on a hilltop, he
yelps and bowls defiance at the ranch
mans answering dogs, at the ranch
man himself and his men, and at all
whom in the light of day he has so
feared, but whom he now challenges
and mocks in the safety of the dark
night hills. So vociferous, so multi
farious, SO penetrating is his clamor
that the listener is led to believe there
is a dozen or more of him voicing his
independence, his contempt and his
resentment, instead of one lone, soli-
taTy animal who but a few hours be-
fore feared to raised his voice above
whisper.
The coyote is species of wolf, evil

ly fleet of foot, and seems to realize
and apprecia.e that fact On it he de-
ponds for safety, and pursued by
dogs, knowing his superior pedal ad-
vantages, he seems to take pleasure
III tol.ing them on. He will lead them
a merry chase through the brush and
over the hills and when weary-or
dikely long before-will stop in some
spot where tho view of the chase is
good, and wait and watch his pursuers
with smile of contempt and derisio9
on his face. The time comes for
some of his pack, however, when the
dogs get him at a disadvantage, but
thus cornered he will make a gallant
fight with teeth and claws, and some,
if not all, of the dogs will learn that
they have no mean adversary to con-
tend with.
The coyote cannot be blamed that
be prefers choice poultry as the piece
de resistance on his menu. In this
regard he but follows the example of
his human brothers. But it is this
very epicurian taste that puts a price
upon his head, and makes him the
huated creature thst he is. When the

but he has had so many tiffs with his
father of ate that he did not care to
make this radical departure from the
traditional way of living without first
speaking to the kaiser. So he screwed
up his courage, and went to the war
lord with the new idea.
The emperor Immediately went into
a terrible rage. Some more of your
American nonsense" he cried so
you value this nonsense of boarding.
1t is liked in America because their
women do not know how to keep
house or are too Indifferent in these
matters regarding our German ideals

Let the Princess of Pless talk that
way to her American and English
friends, but l shall have none of it in
my kingdom. What are we Germans
building our great navy for If not to
protect our fatherland and our
homes?"
Having delivered himself of this
eloquence, the kaiser Immediately
went to see the Princess of Pless, the
beautiful cause Of the whole rumpus.
He and the princess had long, earn.

The princess said she would talk
with her husband about that.
In the meantime, Cecelie is quite as
determined as ever to quit housekeep-
ing for good and all.
