news from Russia-is that we o.
America will have to carry the

with which German aliens
and sympathizers in the United
States move about In perfect
liberty.
Both Trotsky and Lenine

have friends and sympathizers

they do about the war, and
men who, IL given the oppor-
tunity, will try to do the

CHASING 4 COYOTE IN
AUTO EXCITING SPORT
Hound, Sighting Game, Leaps
. Over Mud Shield and Lands
Twenty Feet Ahead Of Car.

LArned, Kan.-An exciting coyote
chase in automobiles took place near
Hanston. The party consisted Of Bill
Ham, John Ham, Mr.. and Mrs. Irwin
Seaman and william Warning. They
went in two cars and took three grey
hounds in each car.
Mr.. Warning says that auto polo Il
mild compared with the way those two
cars chased across the prairie. ravines
and bluffs after coyotes. He said that
his speedometer registered forty miles
one time when he dared to glance at it,
and he was afraid to look again.
They were going along between twen-
~ and thirty miles an hour at the time
they started up the first coyote, and
when the biggest hound in Mr.. War
rings car sighted the wolf It leaped
over the wind shield and hood and
landed running twenty feet ahead Of
the car. The coyote was a big fellow.
but the hounds finally brought him
down. the big hound throwing him,
while the others pinned him down.
While chasing the first coyote the
other auto nearly ran over another one.
which leeped up almost from under the
wheels Of the car. The men shot at it
several times, wounding It, but because
Of the speed Of the bounding car could
get but poor aim. It finally ran into q
hole and was fished out with a wire.
Messrs. Ham and Seaman have killed
many coyotes.

TEACHING INDIANS IS
THIS WOMAN'S HOBBY
Mrs. Molineux Declares Red Man Can
Be Led. but Will Not Be Driven.

Salt Lake City.--To have mothered
one or possibly two tiny lives through
the strenuous days of early infancy is
a task that most women consider plen-
ty. but Mrs Elizabeth MolineuX, until
recently teacher in the United States
Indian service, has the distinction Of
having mothered a whole tribe OF Pluto
Indians, and claims the satisfaction Of
having raised them, old and young,
from condition bordering on the
squalid state where they consider
cleanliness next to godliness and, one
and all, are heartily in favor Of both.
Mrs. Molineux recently resigned her
post as teacher on the Shivwits res
ervation in southern Utah and is in
Salt Lake resting preparatory to going
to Ketchikan, Alaska, to take charge
Of the Episcopal church's mission
school there. She is guest at the
home Of the Right Rev. Paul Jones,
bishop Of the Episcopal diocese Of
Utah, while here.
Indians have become q hobby with
this diminutive little Scotchwoman
She speaks their languages and in her
eight years Of service with the Indian
department has been intimately asso-
ciated with the trials and tribulations
that beset poor Lo on his native heath.
Mrs. Molineux is an ardent church
woman and attributes her success in
dealing with Indians to the fact that
by blending religious teachings with
the "three RS" she has dismissed dis
trust Of her from the minds Of her
charges and has always been regarded
by them more in the light of friend
than q teacher. She declared the In
dian mind to be susceptible to teaching
II properly approached, but adds that
he can be led but will not be driven.

his Australian sojourn:
II went to Australia to 60 into hos
pital, where spent i've weeks. I spent
1--WE months misefably sick in hotels.
The mysterious malady that afflicted
my hands was too much for the Aus
tralian specialists. It was unknown in
the literature Of medicine. No case
like 1t had ever been reported. It ex-
tended from my hands to my feet so
that at times l was a. helpless as q
child. On occasion my hands were
twice their natural size, with seven
dead and dying skins peeling OF at the
same time. There were times when
my toenails in twenty-four hours grew
az thick es they were long. After fling
them OF inside another twenty -four
hours they were as thick as before.
The Australian specialists agreed that
the malady was nonparasitic and there
fore it must be nervous"
The ailment did not mend, and the
novelist and his wife had to abandon
the cruise in the Shark. Yet when
London had returned to California,
where his health had invariably been
excellent, his recovery was complete,
and strangely enough the California
climate Is very like that of Australia.
Later on London ran across the book
