OFFERS HUNTER GOOD SPORT
Santa Cruz Island Can Furnish Thrills
With Its Hordes Of Vicious
Wild Hogs.

On Santa Cruz island, off the
southern coast of California, one
can get all the thrills going with
dangerous big-game shooting in the
pursuit of the ferocious wild boars
found on that wild and rugged bit
Of land.
Santa Cruz is uninhabited except
for a handful of human beings who
have developed its most fertile
slopes as sheep and cattle range.
It's wild boars are descendants of
hogs brought to the island with 9TH
er domestic animals when a ship
load of Spanish criminals were
landed there in 1882, after Spain
had made Santa Cruz a penal
colony. This crew of undesirables
cid not remain long on the island.
Building rude boats of timber from
the neighboring forest and TIE skins
of the cattle and horses with which
they had been supplied, they depart
led almost as soon as the ship which
had brought them. Their swine re-
manned and evolved into the race Of
vicious wild hogs with which the
ISLAND is today infested. These ami
mails are said to be plague to the
ranch people. They destroy crops,
kill sheep, and often gore cattle and
horses. There is bounty on
SHOUTS, and no closed season or bag
limit.

MIsuNDERsrooD RESTRICTIONS.

81 was just as sober as ! am now =
demonstrated the prisoner when he
found himself in a police station at
the end of perfect Saturday night.
'Are you sober now?" asked the
receiving officer.
Absolutely" insisted the pris-
oner.
'FWell, Wen see," retorted the re-
ceiving officer, ordering chalk line
to be drawn across the floor. 'Now,
my man, walk along that line"
The proposed guest for the night
made good Roadway for some dis
tance-but the chalk line suddenly
seemed to jump up and strike him
against the forehead.
q said walk it, not swim iti' ex-
claimed the unsympathetie receiving
officer, as he ordered the prisoner to
spend the night in a cell.

DIAMONDS FROM THE SEAS
Gems Characterized by Great Brilli-
ancy Embedded in Beaches and
Sand Dunes.

Diamonds washed up from the sea
on the coast of southwest Africa in
1918 totaled 1,2S4,727 karats,
valued at 3,132,250. This is ac-
cording to government scientists
who Investigated the coastal dia-
mond field, which is 270 miles long
and was discovered in 1908. These
gems are found chiefly in the Po-
mona district and never more than
Is miles from the shore. Most of
them are extremely small. Although
one of "a karats has been discovered
the average size is one-ffth of a
karat. They are embedded in the
beaches OF in sand dunes. The dia-
monds are of many colors. Clear
white crystals make up the bulk Of
them. Yellow, pink, purplish,
green and black stones oc-
cur. The gems are characterized by
greater brilliancy in the rough than
any others found in South Africa.

DIDN'T THINK MUCH or ARMY
Hedskin Chief Evidently Never Had
Got Really Acquainted With
the Boys in Blue.

When Gen. William 7. Sherman
was engaged in putting down the
Indian war of 1882, he was called
one day to Camp Apache, in Ari-
IONA. A huge Redskin, the captain
of the Indian scouts, attached him
self to the generals heels the mo
ment Sherman appeared, and fol-
lowed him about all day. Every few
minutes the Indian, himself chief,
made demand that he be given one
of the small cannon that decorated
the parade ground. There was more
or less suspicion at the time that
the scouts might at any minute de-
eide to quit the army and go over to
the enemy, and the general, there
fore, was not anxious to give away
cannon. At last the requests be-
came SO insistent that he turned to
the chief and roared out: 'HWhat
do you want with a cannon? Do
you figure on shooting my soldiers
with it?" The Indian snorted.
"Ugh," he said. "No. Me want
um big gun kill cowboys. Kill UNI
soldiers with club" Needless to
state that while the general joined
in a laugh he did not give away the
cannon.

EMPHATlcALLY so.

A man recommended to the no
tice of a merchant a young fellow
who was looking for clerkship. A
few days later they met again, and
the man asked if the selection had
proved a wise one.
"Not at ALI" replied the mer-
chant.
EDear mel" said the other. 81
thought he would have suited you
down to the ground; so full'of goF'
eyes," responded the merchant,
she was too full of go; why, he's
clean gone, and thousand pounds
of my money, too"
"You don't say so! Why, !
thought he was exactly the fellow
you were looking for"
$50 he is emphatically. $50

RELIC OF INDIAN WARS.

Less than half century ago al
most every American community
west of the Mississippi was protect
ed against Indian raids by fort or
stockade. Most of these structures
have now fallen into dust, declares
Popular Mechanics Magazine in an
illustrated article. In southern
Utah, however, is a stone structure
known as "Cove Fort" which was
built in 1867, at the time of the
Blackhawk-Mormon war, yet is to-
day in a state Of perfect preserva-
tion. 1t is now used, in fact, as
ranch house and hotel.

WOULD DEFY EVEN GHOSTS.

In England desperate people in
search Of houses to rent or buy are
advertising that ghosts are no draw
back. Anyone who happens to own
hitherto unrented house because
tradition says it is haunted is as
sured that the seekers for domicile
will accept it at the rental asked re-
gardless of the haunter or hauntess.
1t is suspected that in England, as
in several other countries, ghosts of
landlords would be less objection
able than those of other folk
