Siskiyou News: A curious thing
happened in Scott valley the other
day, when an Overland car, with
Frank Roberts and Walter Wanaka
in it, ran over and killed a coyote.
This is the first incident of the kind
ever heard OF in this country. The
coyote was in a lane when the car
over took him. He could not get
through the fence, so the car caught
him and ended his career.

The hobo hotel on Fourth street
has been renovated and supply OF
fuel will be laid in preparatory for
the handling OF big tourist trade
this winter. The hotel is unique in
that there is no clerk or call boy.
The patrolman on duty assigns the
hobos who make inquiry, to their
rooms (there is only one room). The
hotel is never full to capacity, al
though over fifty guests were enter
tanned several evenings last winter.
The old buggy which was smashed
in the collision with George Barron's
car several weeks ago still stands
alongside the road near Frederick.
In an effort to get a decision upon
which a damage suit could be based,
the driver of the buggy had Mr.. Bar
ron tried on a charge of reckless
driving. The case was tried twice
and the jury disagreed on both occa-
sions. To quote Mr.. Barron, "They
would have lot of nerve to bring it
up again"

"It's a joke when people say that
there are serious difficulties in the
way to the building of harbor at
