Big Otter for Museum

A very large otter was received
Tuesday at the office of the commits
sioners of fish and game and is now in
preparation for mounting for the State
Museum in the hands of Curator
James. The otter is As inches long
from the tip of the nose to end of tail
and Curator James states that it is
the largest and most beautiful speci-
men he has ever seen. The fur is
dark brown and in excellent condition
in spite of the fact that the animal
was killed with a club.
This otter has been visiting the poul-
try houses of George Foss of Leeds,
who is in the poultry raising indus
try on a large scale. The king otter APP
parently thought that such a gather
ing Of hens and chickens deserved the
attention Of the best of his species and
journeyed from somewhere on Dead
river which is close to the poultry
farm to investigate the premises and
dine on young chicks. He was discov-
cred in the midst of his theiving in one
OF the poultry houses and the door was
closed to prevent his escape. And SO
Saturday morning the big otter met
death and will soon be OH exhibition in
the State Museum. There is an otter
in the museum now, but a much
smaller one and of lighter color. The
animal was killed in closed season.

Chinese athletes; with Harry. Fern and
company in an excellent comedy called
Veterans" and a number of fine
Keith acts sandwiched in between, will
all leave that playhouse after to-day s
performances. Chief of the attractions
that are booked for the Orpheum next
week is a delightful scenic and vocal
and novelty known as Bert Lamont and
his Cowboy Minstrels. This production
brings with it breath of Western at
mosphere, employing a delightful stage
setting representing the rugged West
and the artists of the piece are at home
in the regulation cowboy togs. Mr..
Lamont possesses a tenor voice of re-
markable sweetness and range and it
is heard to advantage in some excel
lent quartet numbers. Seven artists
comprise the company and they inject
much comedy with their tuneful sing
ing. The scenic equipment is pre-
tentiOus. Another act of merit will be
that of the Moneta Five, a quintet of
musical and vocal artists, three women
and two men. Originality is the key
note Of their act, for it is widely diff
ferent from any musical act of its kind.
