Cottonwood Falls, Kan, Aug. 5.-Ac-
cording to stock raisers and farmers of
this county. the coyote seems to be fast
becoming extinct. The fencing up of
the big pasture districts in this and
n%eighboring counties, where practically
every acre is now stocked with cattle.
has robbed the coyote Of his once free
and open range. Because of his dep
relations on young and helpless domes-
tic stock a bounty has been set on his
head. and he has long been a fugitive,
hunted and killed by every farmer.
The bounty of ST.. which is paid by
the county for every coyote scalp turn
ed 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
cones, but have made a practice of
hunting the coyotes denS and rObbing
them of their young. for the scalp of
a baby wolf. though only a few weeks
old and innocent of all wrongdoing, is
h same in the eyes of the law as
would be that of a veteran chicken
killer.
Only a few years ago the bounty
money paid out in this county alone
for coyotes ran as high as $500 or $500
annually. Now it is said that the num-
Der will hardly reach 500 a year.
SO pcrsistenly have the farmers car
ried on the warfare of determination.
that the coyotes who rear their fami-
lies in safety must be cunning indeed.
Though this may seem cruel, yet from
long experience farmers have found
that in a stock raising country the coy
ote has no place. Were they left to
multiply even for a few years so great
would their numbers become as to be
a scOurge to the country.

LANDED from a Ir.-in," said the mar
rator quietly and not without some
readiness. They kept him prisoner
in a cave for months. and then they
took him hundreds Of miles away to
the forests of Alaska. There a beau
tiful Indian girl fell in love with him,
but he remained true to Alice. After
another year Of wandering in the
woods he set out with the diamonds
"What diamonds:' asked the unim-
portant passenger, almost with acer-
bity.
The ones the saddle maker showed
him i'll the Peruvian temple" said the
other somewhat ~obscurely. "When he
reached home Alice's mother led him,
weeping. to a green mound under a
willow tree. Her heart was broken
when YOU left said her mother. And
what of my rival-of Chester Mc1n-
tosh: asked Mr.. Redruth as he knelt
sadly by .Alice's grave. when he
found out she answered, that her

The narrator ceased, with a sidelong
glance at the corner where reclined
the lady passenger.
