DOGS join PACK OF COYOTES
Two strays discovered by Saline
County Farmers Running With
WoIVes-EIude Capture.

For some time the farmers in this
county have been excited over the ex-
istence of a couple CT black wolves in
the neighborhood, which ran continue
ally with the coyotes. 1.-TWO or three
roundups have been held especially to
capture the black wolves, which are
said to be much more vicious than the
common coyote and therefore more
daring in robbing the hen roosts. The
ether afternoon farmers riding
through the country saw the black an
imals and succeeded in getting close
enough to discover that they were
common black dogs that have taken
up with the coyotes. Where the dogs
came from is not known, but they are
strays that have been in the county
several months. There have been sew
era1 instances in Central Kansas
where dogs have joined wolf droves
and some farmers have dogs that are
part wolf. This, however, is the first
time that distinctly black dogs have
associated with coyotes

HIS PROMISE TO DO BETTER
Hard to See How Hodcarrier Could

The late George A Hearn, the mil

kind and reasonable treatment OF his
employees. Mr.. Hearn used TO smile at
the new scientific management craze,
OF which he once said at a dinner:
These scientific management peo-

doubling and trebIing a mans labor,

ECZEMA SPREAD OVER BODY

NO2-CENTFARELAW
Stipulation Between State and
Railroads Ends With Dismis-
sal of Nebraska Suits.
MAY ALLOW RATES TO STAND
Railroad Attorneys Believe Present
Arrangements Will Be Continued
AS Matter Of Policy.

The reported dismissal Of the 2-cent
fare litigation in the Federal court in
Nebraska, which means that Nebraska
will retain its present 2-cent passen-
ger rate, probably means that 2-cent
fares viii remain effective in Kansas
according to unofficial statements in
railway circles.
Legally, when the Nebraska cases
are terminated the stipulation en-
tered into by thirteen railroads and
the state of Kansas before Judge John
c. Pollock Of the Federal court, by
which agreement 2-cent fares were to
remain in force in Kansas until the
Nebraska litigation was settled, VIII
be ended, it is said. and the rate prop
osition will be just where it was when
the agreement was made, seven ytars
ago.
One railroad attorney said that as
far as he knew the present arrange
ment would be allowed to stand,
although ht had no word from the
central office to that effect. And he
declined to be quoted. Another added
that if the lower fare was retained by
the roads it would be as matttr Of
policy on the part of the roads. The
roads are expected to get together on
the proposition soon.
Nebraska has a 2-cent fare law.
Kansas has not But when Nebraska
brought suit in tint state courts to
make its law effective, the railroads
carried the suit into the Federal court,
making the state take the defensive.
Pending q decision, Nebraska has en-
joyed 2-cent fares.
About the same time, seven years
ago, John Dawson, then attorney for
the board Of railroad commissioners
of the staff of Kansas entered into a
stipulation with thirteen roads oper-
ating in Kansas whereby it was
agreed 2-cent rates should be eff
fective in Kansas until decision was
given in the Nebraska cases. The rail-
road commission issued an emergency
order to that effect

We're convicted of either smuggling

court on the appeal of IA United States
customs guards convicted some time
ago as members of an alleged opium
smuggling ring in which steamship Of
ficials We're alleged to have been inn
plicated. Attorneys for the convicted
customs guards contend that the fed
eral statute, as it now stands, is an
invasion of the police rights of the

the provisions of the law which fix
the mere possession of contraband
opium as evidence of illegal connivance

MARCHING RUSSIANS
AN INFORMAL BUNCH

Correspondence OF the
Associated Press.A-A letter from
Warsaw says that in marching Russian
soldiers present an odd picture.
"The Russian regiments on the
march are the most informal organi-
cations in the world it says. Ahead
ride a few officers, and time, in no
particular formation, come the troops,
some on one side of the road and some
on the other. Toward the rear they
straggle off in dwindling streams,
wandering about the fields and plod-
ding here and there, just as though
each was off on an individual tour.
For miles after q regiment has
passed one sees little groups trudging
along, apparently perfectly contented
and without a worry in the world. Yet
at night they all appear for rations,
and in the morning start off again in
a solid formation.
Il am told that this method of
marching has proved a great puzzle to
the German airmen in trying to esti-
mate the number of troops that are
moving. When the columns are SO
strung out, it is almost impossible from
any height to tell whether what one
sees is battalion in close formation
or a company strung out Most armies
march in solid masses which can be
seen and estimated accurately from a
great distance.
THE more one sees of the individual
of the Russian army the more one
comes to like the common soldier here

like, playful person in the world, anG

JOE WOLCOTT MET
LARGE AND SMALL

No fighter in the ring today is
prepared to do the stunts that
made Joe Wolcott famous.
Joe met fighters of all weights.
He was a welter and easily re-
manned at 142 pounds, but he took
on the biggest men ir the ring
when in his prime.
He knocked out Joe t'hoy nski IN
seven rounds when Joe had to his
credit a drawn battle with Jim
Jeffries.
Joe made one big mistake. He
tried to fight in the lightweight
class and take the title from Kid
Lavigne.
When he trained down to 1873
pounds he found himself SO weak
he could not make amy kind of a
showing against Lavisne.
The two fought a 15-round draw
in Maspeth in 1895 and Lavigne
won in IL rounds in San Francisco
in 1897.
