FREAK OF NATURE.
A Colt, Fully Developed, Born With
Two Legs-Dies after Birth.

DR.. J. A. Havirland had on exhi-
bition several days the latter part of
last week, a colt which was fully
developed, sound and healthy, bora
with but two legs, the hind ones.
The colt was born Tuesday of last
week, and belonged to Anton Lee.
Had DR.. Havirland been on the scene
little earlier he is confident the
colt could have lived, which might
have meant a fortune to Mr.. Lee.
1t is quite curiosity and DR.. Havir-
land will have the hide stuffed.
Where the front legs should have
grown there were two 'stumps,'
one little longer than the other
ossian Bee.

Des Moines, Ia, April 27.-Re-
ports to Mr.. Hinshaw, state game
warden, are that the several thous-

nesting in the preserves and that
re late winter and early spring
weather has been such that they are
all in good condition. A very large
crop of young birds is expected.
There are eighty-five of the game
preserves, only fourteen counties not
having them, and this solely because
of lack of time in getting them ar
ranged for.

DESTROYING LIGHT
IS TURNED ON VICE
BY SLAVERY FILM
Traffic in Girls Barred in Bold
Frankness Through Males
tic PiCture-PIdy.

Smashing the Vice Trust" is the
title OF a powerful six-reel film at the
Majestic theater tomorrow night
which is attracting national atten-
tion. 1t is declared to be by all odds
the frankest presentation of this
avoided subject yet portrayed on the
screen.
District Attorney Whitman, ia
nous as much for his work against
the white slavers as his operations
against the police grafters of New
York, occupies prominent place in
this picture.
Bitter objections have been raised
to the presentation of this film on
the ground that it handles the mat
ter too boldly and repulsively and
that only morbid curiosity seekers
will attend. However. its results
have disproved this objection, and
wherever the picture has been shown
the antagonism to the vice trust has
redoubled and interest in the move
ment has received sharp impetus
Convincing because truthful, eff
fective because unsparing in its ex-
posures, Smashing the Vice Trust"
is one of the biggest pictures ever
shown here.
1t will be at the Majestic tomorrow
in six reels. Tomorrow only.

Beavers Make War
On Rio Grande's S
Cotton Ice Pond

More than 1000 fur-bearing. flat
tailed beavers, enjoying the official
protection of the state of Utah. are
engaged in open warfare on the Dem
yer & Rio Grande railroad, also en-
titled to state protection, SAYS Fred
w. Chambers. Utah fish and game
commissioner. Mr.. Chambers is pom
dering how he.may effect arbitration
between the beavers and the railroad
company.
At Cotton. Carbon county. the
Denver & Rio Grande has an ice
pond, from which it gets some of its
summer supply of ice. During the
winter beavers tunneled into this ice
pond and built conservation dams in
1t to the extent that the railroad was
unable to reap its annual harvest of
ice.
Being the greatest conservationists
known. as regards the storing of wa
ter the busy beavers, says Mr.. Cham
berlain, are again engaged in build
ing and strengthening the dams and
burrowing tunnels to the railroad
company's pond in manner as to
threaten the ice harvest next winter.
The beavers cannot be frightened
away from the pond or any of its
sources of water supply.
This phase OF the difficulty has
been called to the official attention
of Mr.. Chambers, who is making ar
rangement to conduct an investiga-
tion in which the beaver colony at the
Cotton pond may be asked TO have u
heart and not molest the railroad
Talk about the government organ
izing big conservation project on
the Grand and Green rivers by put
ting in a few dams. the government
isn't in 1t with the beavers" says Mr..
Chambers. Il have just become
aware that beavers have built thirty
dams on Fish creek in distance of
three miles which conserve about
1.500 acre-feet of water"
