STATES TO PROVIDE
COAST ARTILLERY
Suggestion is Contained In Gen. Wea-
Fer's Report Showing that Coast De-
fences Are Inadequately Manned.


Washington. D. c., Dec. s.-Of the
total number Of forces required to ade-
ouatelv man the coast defences, the
eorps is short Az officers and 11s2S
enlisted men, according to the annual
report OF Gen. E. NJ Weaver, chief OF
coast artillery, TO the war depart nlelll
With all Of the great gun batteries
planned for the United States sea coast
defences by the EndicOtt board p years
ago nearing completion, the army faces
q serious problem in the lack Of artll-
Ierymen to man the Notifications.
Gen. Weaver reported that his corps
chad less than one-fourth Of one re-
uef' available for permanent duty IN
the batteries and the organized militia
was not prepared 10 furnish It's re-
Guired quota of reserves
All OF the Qualifications planned by
the Endicott board have been completed.
the report said, except the proposed
batteries at Cape Henry to defend
Chesapeake bay and San Pedro, Calf
the Port Of Los Angeles, which has been
added TO the ports to be defended.
Appropriations already have been
made for these projects.
He pointed out that heavy drafts
must be made upon the corps to man
the oversee defences and, after they
have been provided for, there will re-
main by S19 officers and 1857 regular
coast artillery troops for the service Of
The gun batteries Of the continental
United States.
The last report shows, Gen. Weaver
Edded, that the militia coast artillery
available IS composed Of only 127 com
paniess 468 officers and T243 enlisted
men, and he recommended, therefore,
that the states be urged to provide
thelr due proportion OF coast artillery
troops and that congress be asked to
provide the necessary number Of troops
10 man the defences.

tribes of indians heretofore unknown
have been discovered by the University

scum from DR.. Farabee, head of the

The indians call themselves Poro-
cotOs. Ajamaras and Zahacas. Dr. tara-
bee made vocabularies of their Ian
guages, took photographs and collected
many chronological specimens. Archae-
ological specimens of rare interest
were also found. OF great assistance
to the expedition, the letter states, was
a Scotchman found just before the
party started for the interior. He had
married an indian woman and had
lived in that region for 25 years, be-
coming familiar with the different in

WANTS DRY DOCK
ON PACIFIC COAST
Secretary Daniels Would Have 1t Built
by Private Corporation on Basis
of Guaranteed Tonnage.

Washington, D. G. Dec. 8.-A great
dry dock on the Pacific coast capable
Of handling the dreadnaughts OF the
United States navy is proposed by sec
rotary Daniels Of the navy department.
He claims the absolute necessity for
such dry dock TO accommodate the
great ships of the Atlantic fleet when
they pass through the Panama canal
He proposes to contract with 2 private
corporation which already owns docks
in san Francisco harbor, to construct
the dock on a basis of guaranteed
compensation in so many thousands Of
tons Of naval docking per annum. He
has sought this authority from con-
gress.
The collapse Of the great Pearl Har-
Dor dock in Hawaii which was to be
the mainstay of the navy on the west
coast and inacessibility Of the Mare
Island navy yard basins until a great
deal Of dredging has been done, has
reduced the naval resources on the
west coast TO one dock at Puget Sound,
entirely too distant from the Panama
canal TO meet naval needs.

When Old Granny Fox found that Old
Man Coyote was not at his usual nap
ping place she was sure that Reddy Fox
must have been very stupid, and thought
that he saw him there when he didn't
She hurried to the Laughing Brook and
waded in it for a little way in order to
destroy her scent, so that Bowser the
Hound would not know in which direc-
ton she had gone. You know water is
always the friend of little animals who
leave scent in their footsteps. Bowser
came baying UP to the edge OF the
Laughing Brook and there he stopped.
for his wonderful nose could not follow
Granny in the water, and he could not
tell whether she had gone UP or down or
across the brook
But Bowser is not one to give up easily.
No. indeed. He has learned many of
Granny's tricks, and now he knew well
enough what Granny had done. AT least
Bowser thought that he knew.
She'll wade little way and then she
will come out of the water. SO all have
to do is TO find the place where she has
come out and there 1 will find her tracks
again" said he. and with his nose to the
ground hurried down one bank OF the
Laughing Brook.
He went as far as he thought Granny
could have waded, but there was no trace
with his nose still to the ground ran back
to the starting place along the other
bank
She didn't go down the brook, SO she
must have gone up" said Bowser, and
started up the brook as eagerly as he had
gone down. After running as far as he
thought Granny could possibly have
waded Bowser crossed over and ran back
along the other bank to the starting
place without finding any trace of Granny
Fox. At last, with a foolish and ashamed
air Bowser gave il up and started for
home, and all the time Granny Fox was
lying in plain sight watching him. Yes.
sir. she was watching him and laughing
to herself. You see. she knew perfectly
well that Bowser depends more on his
nose than on his eyes. and that when he
can see very little around him. So she
had simply waded down the Laughing
Brook to fiat rock in the middle OF 1t,
and on this she had stretched herself
out and kept perfectly still. Twice Bow
ser had gone right past without seeing
her She enjoyed seeing him fooled so
much that for the time being she quite

for him.
But when Bowser the Hound had gone
