R0AORUNNERS CORRAL . SNAKES AND KILL THEM

An investigation into whether inc well-known Arizona yarn about the road-runner birds building a fence of chollo spikes about the rattlesnake and then killing him at leisure Is true Is being carried on by. John Feeney, of Elmira, N. Y.. who is spending the winter in the state.
 Mir. Feney heard the story some years ago while in the office of the Elmira Herald. A young man who had spent the winter in Tucson for his health did not share the uproarious skepticism withF which the tale was received by the office force Of the Herald. In fact all Elnira took a big laugh Of scorn when the story was published in the Herald.
 On coming to Tucson this winter Mir. Feeney decided to run the story 6own and to satisfy himself as to it's truth. He has been camping on it's tgnu flor sony dave, Dnd is now about ready to write story back to tne Herald stating that he will take his oatli that the road runned really kills the rattlesnake.
 The other day he visited the rooms cf the Arizona Historical society 10 get the views of some of the od pioneers about it Sidney DeI-ong de- clared to him that it was not ouiy true. but that he had actually seen pair of birds entrap a rattlesnake and kill him in just that manner in hia early experience in Arizona. Jchn Magee. who was also there, added his approval of the truth of the story Across the street Mir. Feeney asked the advice of C. r. Dayant, and the excattleman told him that it w9s es true as an affidavit sworn to be fore a notary.
 Next Mir. Feney visited the library and with the aid of the librarian looked up all the authorities on Ari zona birds However. he could mol find anything on the subject. except ; reference by Hornaday who stated that some strange stories are told about the Arizona road-runner birl, Alr Feeney knew that much already
 On the other hand Q number o Arizona farmers and ranchers havl declared that the story Is absurd an that they won't believe it even fl they see 1t. So there you are.

ACI ALTERS
 THE STATE GAME LAWS

State Game Warden Rogers calls attention to the misapprehension that seems to exist in many quarters as to the effect of the United States same laws on the local regulations.
 Several state papers have published articles stating that ducks and other migratory birds cannot he lawfully shot in Arizona and that heavy pen alties will be incurred by anyone at- tempting to shoot them at any time. He said:
 "On Oct. 1 the president issued a proclamation putting into full force and effect the act of congress ap- proved March (, 1913. which act pro vided that all migratory game and | insectivorols birds which in. their northern and southern migration pass through or do not remain per manently the entire year within the borders of any state or territory shall hereafter be deemed to be within the custody and protection of the govern ment of the United States and shall not be destroyed or taken contrary
 
 vided therefor.'
 "On the fact. of the single para graph the papers have seen fit to make the wild statements referred to. As matter of fact the new law of the United States merely prohibits the shooting of migratory birds out of season. In Arizona the closed sea son under the United States law is as follows. On waterfowl between Feb. 1. and Oct. la. and on coots and shore birds between the same dates 'rhis simply means that the open season on these birds is from Oct 1' to Jan. Sl and during this pericd they may be shot at as they always have been. The idea of the United States law was to afford the migratory birds a fair chance and to straighten oui the difficulty that constantly oc cured by the differing laws in diner ent states. To this end two grea zones were established. one north of latitude 40 degrees and the othel south of 1t. Arizona, of course, liei in the latter zone and the dates have given are the open that .appll here. Of course. where the state .an' federal laws happen to conflict in th' matter of open season the latter vii govern so that the open Season fo ducks etc, in Arizona is, frcmfoci l5. ito ,Jan.'' 3i. and that the bird are tprotected the rest of the year.

DESERTED HIS FAMILY.
Louis HUM Rounded Up after Years
Absence.

A n"on-support case heard before JUS
tice Jed =. Ladd Saturday evening seem
ed to present some new features and
called for rather more than n term OF
probation. The respondent was a Shell
burne man, Louis HUM. who has been
"a stranger to his family for about a year
and who has been In Burlington lately
having more or less of a good time, ac-
cordins to all reports. He was arrested
by Deputy Sheriff Todd.
HUM left his wife and five children In
S%helburne about a year ago n went to
Massachusetts to look for work. Since
that time he has been drawing a good
salary, It Is said, but he has never been
inclined to communicate with his family,
who were taken in charge by he poor
department nj Shelburne and supported.
But the authorities have been keeping
II lookout for HUM. He showed up at
Burlington about a week ago with quite
a sum In his pocket which he did not
see fit to spend on any of those at home.
When the authorities told him his fam
lily were In the poorhouse at Shelburne
he showed surprise and ignorance, but
didn't seem to feel sorry. He made no
excuse for not contributing TO their sup
port and appeared to be Indifferent to
their fate.
| Justice Ladd sentenced HUM to serve
not more than six nor less than five
months at the house of correction and to
pay a fine Of 500 and costs of sc, go. which
will give him 90 days more when he com
pletes the first term. The oldest of Huhn's
five children IS twelve and the youngest
is two.

FLATIRON STARTED FIRE.
Route Was by Way Of II Fair of
Trousers.

Another serions fire occurred Friday
afternoon that threatened the destruction
of a dwelling on Elmwood Avenue but
the blaze was checked after about a
half hours fight. The damage viii amount
to several hundred dollars.
The scene of the fire was the residence
Of Mrs. Anna Taylor at 125l2 Elmwood
avenue, her part of the house being the
upper story. The fire seemed to catch
in a bedroom where Mrs. Taylor's son
had been pressing his trousers. He
claims that when the job was completed
he threw the garment across the dresser
and that it was probably burning from
too close an application of the ~iiatiron.
At any rate, a lively blaze soon de-
veloped in the room and an alarm was
runG in from box 81, corner Of Elmwood
avenue and North street. The firemen
found the fire was all in the room
described and an attempt was made to
hold it there, only the chemical being
used, although two lines of hose were
held in readiness. The fire destroyed the
dresser and the furnishings in the room.
then got into the partition and finally
crawled into the attic.
Holes were made in the ceiling and the
| chemical was applied with good results
and it was not necessary to chop through
the roof. The fire was entirely subdued
with the chemical, 1873 gallons being used.
The loss will be in the neighborhood OF
800 or 500. The house, which is owned
by c.. +. Arcand, is insured but there is
no insurance on Mrs. Taylor's furniture,
This was the 18th alarm of the year.

CHANGE IN
One Grammar Grade to he Eliminated
in B~urIinstOn's Schools

Beginning with the opening of school
next September, there will be but two
classes in the grammar grades of the
Burlington school system, shortening the
chool course from a term of nine years
to one of eight. This move complies with
a law enacted by the Legislature Of 1872,
and is being followed generally through
out the country.
According to tho decision OF the super
~lntondent and the school commissioners
the A grammar class. or the ninth grade,
will be eliminated from the school course
and the c grammar class or seventh
all the schools before the grammar school
is reached, will hold Its sessions in tho
grammar school building. This will give
two, years instead OF three in the gram
mar course.
The new arrangement will be a decided
help to the principals of the different
lower grades, who now teach the G gram
mar. Beginning with the next school
year, they Will act as supervisors of theiI
respective schools, affording them an OPP
portunity to more carefully watch the
work in the lower grades and perform

WHO NAMED FRISCO.

The first to give the name of San
Francisco to the future Pacific coast me-
tropolis were Francisco Palon and Beni-
Cambon, two friars, who in 1776 left Mon
terey with seven civilians and II dragons,
with their families, and established the
Spanish mission of San Francisco. In 1895
William A. Richardson, an Englishman
erected the first tent on the site of the
present city, three miles from the mis-
sion, on what is now Dupont street, and
began dealing in hides and tallow. The
next year Jacob i. Loose arrived at the
mission and erected the first private
dwelling. In 1890 Jean NIoget surveyed
the town and laid out streets and lots,
says an exchange. In 1S41 two Americans
built a saw-mill, and in 1916 Captain
Montgomery of the war slope Ports
| mouth raised the American flag on what
became Portsmouth square and a little
later a ship arrived from New York with
200 Norman immigrants, This little com
munity was known as Yerba Buena 81
