Politics here tonight. Bishop
Brent, who for many years was
bishop of the Philippines, criticised
the Wilson administrations policy
toward the islands.
"Since 1891" he said, American
control of the Philippines has
brought to the islands an unprece-

''In the development of American
policy in this direction are two
criticisms to be made of the last
administration at Washington. The
first is that, whereas all appoint

formerly been made without re-
CARDS to the American home poll

PAINTERS WON 7
TALK WAGE CUT
WITH BUILDERS
Union Prefers to Farley With
Paint Contractors; Claims
a Dollar Cut Is Already in
Effect,

Refusal to accept the invitation
of the Albuquerque Contractors
association to meet in regard to a
wage cut of a dollar a day, and
opposition to the proposed cut are
expressed inSthe reply Of the local
BROTHERHOOD of painters, decora-
tors and paperhangers to Mike
Nash, president Of the contractors
association. The union is willing.
however, to discuss the matter
with the paint contractors, who
belong to the building association.
The painters union claim that
their cut of a dollar a day in
wages is already in effect since the
painters did not take the increase
of dollar a day to take effect on
January 1, 1921, which was al
lowed by their agreement with the
paint contractors. The raise
was not made in, the hope that
building would take a boom in
Albuquerque, according to their
statement.
The reply of the painters fol-
"At our last regular meeting,
held Friday, August 10. LOCAL No.

unanimously against cut of 81

Is ready at any time to meet paint
contractors of Albuquerque, in re-
gard to a cut in wages. But, like
the carpenters union, we will not
meet any mixed organization on
questions of hours or wages.
I'VE feel through past expert
ence that dealing with a mixed or
ganization does not get either side
any where. For instance-our To-
cal a year ago last May was out
on strike for dollar increase in
wages. We met the builders as
ISOLATION time after time, neither
side getting anywhere.
Gas soon as we met the paint
contractors our strike came to an
end and a settlement was ar
ranged. We feel that If we had
met them at the start, as we want
ed to, that there would have been
no strike.
eve have a signed agreement
with the paint contractors (be-
longing to the building associa-
tom for an increase of 81 a day
in wages to take effect January l,
1921.
This increase we did not take,
hoping building in Albuquerque
would take a boom, so therefore
we feel that we have accepted our
cut of 81 a day In wages when we
did not put this raise into effect
January 1, 1921.
"But we are ready at any time
and anywhere to meet the paint
contractors of Albuquerque on any
question"

s WORST
GRIZZLY MEETS
VICTORIOUS END
Famous Old Warrior of Mt.
Wheeler District, Victor in
Many Fights With Hunters,
Meets Death in Trap.

The most destructive bear in the
state, one of the famous Mount
Wheeler grizzlies, was killed last
month by a hunter for the biolog-
ical survey, according to the
monthly report given out yester-
day. The bear had been under
surveillance for more than year,
although active operations against
her were not commenced until May
of this year.
This famous old grizzly. a fe-
male, has defied all efforts of
ranchmen and amateur hunters to
kill her, although several parties
have had their dogs killed and at
least one camp has been wrecked
by this Amazon of the bear tribe.
Trouble would probably never
have come to the wary old veteran
had she not taken fancy to beef,
and begun depredations against
vicinity. When she turned to out
lawry, however, she attracted the
attention of the biological survey,
which deals only with predatory
animals, and her downfall was as
sured.
Operations were commenced by
the biological survey In May, 1921,
although the bear had been
watched for some time before
that. BY June 20 bear traps had
been taken to the district by pack
horse, and trap line established
on the summer cattle ranges,
where the bear had done the most
damage. Mo estimate has been
made Of the total loss to livestock
caused by this single bear, but it
is known to be large. Finally, on
July 81, the old warrior made her
first mistake when she stepped
into a trap, and her activities
ceased abruptly. The Mount
Wheeler hunter who trapped the
bear found that she had killed
COW short distance away the day
before.
Another predatory bear, large
cinnamon, was shot by a govern
ment hunter in the Mogollon
range. The bear had destroyed
three head OF cattle and two sheep
a short time before the hunter
took up the trail.
Altogether, total Of six bears
were killed by the biological sur
vey hunters during July. None but
the best hunters obtainable are as
signed to bear hunting, as it is the
policy Of the survey to destroy
only the stock-killing bears, leav-
ing the others for the sportsmen,
BY trailing and careful study an
expert bear hunter is able to sim
gle out the individual which has
been killing livestock.
Predatory Animal Inspector Z.
l.. Pineau of the survey will leave
shortly to conduct a lion hunt in
he Urraca and Rayado creek dis
trict in CoItax county. Several
mountain lions are still at large
n that locality, and deer and live
stock are being destroyed. Two
hunters and the Inspector will |
make up the party. using a small
,ack of hounds in the hunt, which |
will start about August 90.
Nine hunters made UP the hunt
r force during July, most of them
,eing men who have been with

lumber of them devote their time
Exclusively to hunting the larger

rolyes.

opsis.--Never having known
his father, and living with his
mother on a houseboat on the Wa
bash river, Pearlhunter-the only
name he has-learns from her
part of the story of her sad life.
The recital is interrupted by
fearful fit of coughing and he hur-
ries ashore to seek a root that af-
fords relief. He meets a young
girl whom he mentally christens
the Wild Rose. She eludes him be-
fore he can make her acquaint-
ance. A vacant cabin on the shore
has attracted the attention of the
ailing woman, and they move into
it. Their first meal is interrupted
by the man-in- -F'ancy-Vest.
Pearlhunter strikes him. Gunplay
cally drives the intruder away.
She says it is the "Other Man"
whom she has not seen for 20
years They find red mask
dropped by the Other Man. That
night Pearlhunter finds the Blue
Moon, a great freshwater pearl.
His mother dies without revealing
his fathers name. Pearlhunter
and the Other Man meet in the
village; a pistol fight is narrowly
averted. Pearlhunter believes him
to be the Red Mask criminal Pearl
hunter rescues Wild Rose from the
Other Man and meets Wild Man,
her father. He is a man of Gull
ture, crazed from concussion of the
brain, the result of an attack by
someone wearing red mask.

CHAPTER v-continued.

The girl caught the falling bow from
his hand; drew the cello to her and
deftly twisted the strings in tune.
The Pearlhunter stood amazed at
what followed. The tones OF the cell
10 seemed to reach out into the quiet
evening, purple with the close of day,
and gather up the drowsy sounds of
wood and stream, and bring them in
and strew them down like falling rose
leaves fall of a distant oar; the
lap of water upon cool rocks the
pulse of current that rose and fell
the Groom OF contented trees under
serene sunset. He did not know that
what he heard was Beethoven's incOm-
parably witching Moonlight Sonata.
The old mans head had dropped for
ward, his eyes were closed, his face
muffled in his rumpled beard upon his
breast. Leaning the cello against the
chair, the girl picked up a limp arm.
laid it about her neck, and led him
away, like drowsy child, through the
curtained entrance Of the west room.
With the departure of the girl the
picture dissolved; the evening world
became a vast emptiness, an emptiness
the silence poured in to fill. It caught
the Pearlhunter in its flood; it held
him; overwhelmed him; found out lit
tie hooks and crannies of his nature
that he never knew were there.
The curtains parted. A soft step
crossed the carpet. The world came
back. A deep breath swelled the. chest
ofQthe Pearlhunter- deep as if it had
been the only breath he had taken
since the song began.
"Next to the thrush song. that was
the. most wonderful thing ] ever
heard !"
The girl looked up from rearranging
the cushions in the old mans chair.
Daddy taught me. He said it was
my gift. He had the deepest, soft
voice" she went on, more to herself

than to him. Like the low tones of
the cello, though it always made him
sad to sing. Long ago, when was a
child, he used to hold me in his arms
and sing to me. He was a wonderful
cellist before"
She bowed her head over the chair
and the Pearlhunter fancied he saw
tears. But her face was soon up
again, brave and cheerful.

"As 1 told you" commenced Dad
dy, II am going to tell you quite few
stories of the ways of the penguins,
for we have agreed that we thought
they were most attractive and inter-
estlng birds.
They can be divided into four
groups or, rather, we can group them
from the four main parts of the world
where different families live, some
quite a distance apart and some near
together.
West of the coast of South Amer
lea to the Equator there is a cold cur
rent and in the Antarctic or south
Of the Antarctic regions there are the
Emperor penguins with the white over
their eyes and the Adele penguins
with the ring across their necks.
1.-THE second group are the sub-Ant-
arctic penguins. These are in the mild.
er zone, in South Georgia and upon
the Sandwich islands. Here are the
King penguins and the Johnny pen
gums, the Rock-Hopper penguins, the
Macaroni penguins, the Victoria PEN
gums and the Blue penguins that can
also be called the Insular penguins or
penguins belonging to islands.
I'm the second group of South Tenn
perate penguins where they live on
continents rather than islands there
are the Jackass penguins They are
so named because they have braying
call which is just like that of dom
key They are found in Africa and
In South America, and there are three
species or three families Of Jackass
penguins.
in the fourth group of. penguins
are those known as the Tropical pen
gums who live in the heart of the
tropics, near the Equator. These are
called the Gallipoli penguins..
"All penguins are fond of the wa
ter. though some of the little ones
have to be taught that the water is
part of their life and of their home.
SThey all use their wings as pad
dies. Their wing feathers are scale
like. They all walk upright, as you
know.
1.-THE Emperor and the King pen
gums lay one egg only, and this they
lay on the top of their feet, which are

Russians Deeply Religious.

The Russian people, from the most
remote time, have been deeply re-
Iigious by nature. In every public es-
adjustment, in every Office, railroad
station, post office, bank, tavern. store,
and almost in every dwelling, there is
an ikon (holy picture), placed in a
corner with an oil light before 1t,
steadily burning. These fkons look
like bas-relief; only the head and
hands of the image are painted on
the background; the rest of the pic
ture is composed of engraved, gilded
metal. very often of real gold anc sill
yer incrusted with diamonds and 9TH
err precious stones, according to Con-
stantin Fraboni. writing on religious
customs in Russia in Current His
tory

Walk Upright.

somewhat pear-shaped. These PEN
gums make no nests.
"Others lay two or three eggs and
make rounded sort of nest,
though the penguins aren't like other
birds who care for their homes and
how they look and of what they are
made.
THE King and, Emperor penguins
spend their first ten months ashore
when they're but little penguins. Some
of the smaller species, though, only
spend five or six weeks in the nest
or right with their mothers.
CAS- long as the penguins keep their
down they keep out of the water.
They do not go in until it has mott
ed.
"They all swim with their wings
instead of with their feet, and anoth-
er reason that they stay out of the
water as long as they do is because
they cannot swim until their wings
are strong, and it takes some time be-
fore they are strong.
Most penguins swim beneath the
surface of the water, though the Jack
ass swims at the surface.
Both the Mr.. and Mrs. Penguins
have the same eating habits, and they
share most of the work and play to-
gether.
"When the Mrs. Penguins are sit
ting on the eggs, or rather when the
eggs are sitting ON their feet, as they
do in so many cases, and when they've
given them over to the Mr.. Penguins
when they have wanted to take walk
or a wash or meal, the Mr.. Penguins
love to fight.
'sThey fight for two reasons: One
is because they feel so full of energy,
and they're like people when day
is brisk and cold and when they feel
happy they like to play games hard
or work hard or do anything they have
to do with lots of energy.
1.-THE other reason the Mr.. Penguins
do this is because they like to show
off before their mates They feel fine
and healthy and we'll and happy. And,
too, they like to have their mates see
how brave and splendid they are.
"But they don't have real fights,
they don't hurt those they're fighting
against.
They're just good-natured fights,
and they never drop the eggs when
they're fighting and never forget that
they're guarding the eggs for the Mrs.
Penguins.
.Such,9 said Daddy "are some OF
the ways of some of the penguins, and
another day We'll hear of some OF
their talks and walks and games and
lessons ~
