Mrs. Worsen Yuceless.
MI. Worsen Yuceless, by the way,

show.
1t is rumored that Miss Tootoo KyI-

rabbit Drives" Advocated.

The western farmer dislikes the
coyote, and a bounty is offered for
it's pelt; the result is that the coyotes
have greatly diminished. But, says
the Portland Oregonian, the killing OF
the coyotes has resulted in a great
increase of rabbits; many expert
ments have been made to diminish
their number by inoculating them with
disease, but without satisfactory re-
suits. Rabbit drives are the only
sure remedy; 10000 jack rabbits were
killed in n county in Oregon in
this way last winter.

LETTER SOAKED IN COCAINE
Denver Prison Officials Find the Bane-
full Drug in Missive to
Inmate.

The core Of al apple, the peel Of a
banana and the stone of a peach have
been used as a means of smuggling CO
caine into the county Jail, but at
taches believe that an entirely new
plan has been evolved, says a Denver
dispatch.
A ietter vas received yesterday ad-
dressed to one of the inmates of the
dope ward. No signs of cocaine
could be detected in the corners of the
envelope, but the Jail Off cials decided
to examine the letter more closely.
A minute scrutiny of the paper on
which the letter was written revealed
that it was saturated with the drug.
There was enough in the sheet to sup
ply one OF the victims a week at least.
The letter might have escaped detec-
ton II it had not been for the fact that
the sender had overdone his work. A
white powdery substance which COW
cred the entire letter first aroused sus-
picion.
According to the Jail attaches the
paper had been boiled in water in
which there was cocaine. After the
water had boiled away the cocaine
was observed by the paper, which was
then rolled and dried. The sender of
the letter has not been found. He
signed no name.

SOCI0LOGIST NOW IN DEMAND
Many People Willing to Employ Her.
but She Seems Somehow to
Have Lost Interest.

The female sociologist, as q COM
mercial asset, is experiencing q bull
market.
"She is actually in demand as .
maid of all work" said the manager
of an employment agency. Times
have changed in that respect.
Not so very long ago the applica-
ton of a social worker for a nice, in
teresting job, where she could study
the habits Of heartless employers and
get points for a magazine article,
placed me metaphorically between
the devil and the deep sea. II / didn't
get her a situation, she wrote me up
as an oppressor of honest labor, and
If / did get her one, her employers,
when they found out what she was up
to, got after me and ! lost their pa
tronage.
But people want sociologists for
servants now. Here Is a bunch of let
tiers from a dozen women, asking if !
have any settlement workers in need
of a Job. They claim that with all her
faults of shopping around and trying
to reform the universe, the sociolo-
gist is the most thorough, the most
systematic, the most trustworthy
housemaid that can be found.
Unfortunately, now that she Is
wanted, the sociologist has lost all
ambition to shine as a slavey. ! have
telephoned to every settlement house
in town, but it appears that social
workers are primed with all the facts
they need for the present. for not n
