WANT CAPITAL OF
 ENGLAND CHANGED

LONDON, Jan. 19. - The English labor members of Parliament have an- other grouch. They complain that the Houses of Parliament are too far away from the rest of England, Scot land and Wales and should be more centralized and are telling their con- stituents about it in no uncertain terms.
 MT. Maxton, of Glasgow, makes the most original proposition. 'I think, " he told his constituents, "that the Houses of Parliament should be shift ed out of London. They should be put in the middle of Yorkshire.
 Tt is a bad policy to have the House of Commons in London, which is not a representative town. The peo- pie round about Westminster are not representative of the people of Great Britain. There are more wealthy peo- ple in that district than any other.
 "They should do as they have in the United States and other countries and develop a new city for us"

SAYS WOMAN VOTE
 MAKES NO CHANCE

COLUMBUS. Ohio, Jan. 19.--Advent of the woman voter has not changed political conditions, according to Pro lessor Walter J. Shepard, department of political science, Ohio State Uni versity.
 There is little or no perceptible diff ference evident so far in the charac- ter of the vote since the advent of the woman suffrage amendment" de- clared Professor Shepard
 "Women do not vote differently from men, as they are subject to prac- tically the same influences as are the men. They divide the issues along lines similar to the males," he contin- ued.
 "Even on the liquor issue the ex- pected did not happen. In Illinois, where it was possible to tabulate the women's vote, woman suffrage did not work to the advantage of the dry cause, at least to the extent that had been expected" said Professor Shep- ard.

NEW EVIDENCE TO PROVE
 FAIRIES REALLY EXlST''

LONDON, Jan. 19.-"I am more than ever convinced that fairies really exist. Furthermore, I have in my possession corroborative evi- dence placing the matter beyond all doubt"
 Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, famous novelist and creator of Sherlock Holmes, thus adds another argument to the remarkable controversy that has ragged since he first raised the question about two years ago.
 In a London magazine at that time he not only asserted that fairies had been seen in small village in Yorkshire, but had been photo graphed by two young girls, aged ten and sixteen respectively.
 The photographs were reproduced One shows Alice, the younger girl behind a bank, while behind her were four fairies dancing in tradi- tiOnal fairy costume, with gauzy wings, one of them playing on a toad stool. The other photograph was of a prancing gnome seated on the knee of the elder girl.
 The point of what Sir Arthur claims to be the fresh evidence is that South African newspaper has discovered a girl in South Africa to whom the ''younger of the two seers" wrote letters at the time tell ing of the incident.
 His argument is that no girls of such tender age would have any reason for trying to deceive a friend at the other end of the world over such thing, and furthermore, he has seen the letter she wrote, which was couched in the most unconcern- able way imaginable, as if the see ing of fairies was an everyday occur renee, and terminated in the phrase: q suppose it is too hot in South Africa for fairies to live"

X-RAY SHOWS RING
 THIEF SWALLOWED

BERLIN, Jan. 19. - TWO We'll dressed men the other day entered a ieweler's shop in the Westphalian city of Hagen, asking to have flrst-class rings shown to them. After the Jew eler had displayed the goods he sud denly missed one of his most valu- able rings.
 He had the doors closed and po- litely asked his visitors to submit to a search. which they readily did, pro- claiming their innocence. The search did not yield anything.
 In the meantime the jewellers wlfe' sbrewd and suspicious, had telephoned to the police. Two detectives ap- neared and resumed the search on pro- fessional lines, with the same negative result.
 As the jeweler, however, insisted that the ring must have been stolen' and couId not but be on the person of one of his two customers, they were taken to a nearby hospital X-ravs disclosed that one of them hao surreptitiously swallowed the ring.

BANDIT WOLF IS VICTIM OF US,
 BEST SHOT

SHERIDAN, Wyo., Jan. 19.-Harry P. Williams, listed in the 1921 Depart ment of Agriculture report as the "best shot" in the Government hunt CTS and trappers' service operated by the Biological Survey. has added a new laurel to his crown.
 The bandit wolf pack leader, the three-legged animal that has terror ized Young's Creek for several years. is the latest victim of Williams's rifle fire.
 With the great, gray, three-legged pack leader died another male mem- Der of the raiders band, and for the first time in ten years ranchers of the Young's Creek country near this city are hopeful that their herds will be wintered without serious losses from the predatory animals.
 Two Weeks Chase
 With George Ostrum, another Gov ernment hunter, Williams, who is now the supervisor of Wyoming's Federal hunters, staged a two weeks chase through the wooded hillsides and ranges of Young's Creek country, staying the two animals last week.
 A third member of the pack, fe- male wolf, was trailed more than 30 miles by the two hunters, and, after she had been driven across the Chey- enne River, the chase was abandoned because of the extreme cold Williams having suffered frozen face in the 3O-below-zero temperature.
 Pelts of the two animals are on dis play in local sporting goods store, and each measures more than six feet from tip to tip.
 The three-legged wolf and his pack have destroyed stock in the Young's Creek country valued at $20,00O dur ing the last decade, and at one tune the Federal Government offered bounty of $500 for his capture" Will Hams and Ostrum, however, are ln- elegible for the reward because ol their connection with the Government.
 "custer Wolf' Slain
 Williams gained international fame two years ago when he shot the no- torious "Custer" wolf, bandit or the range that raided the ranches Of the Black Hills country for more than nine years and destroyed by hlmseh more than 5000 worth of stock.
 The "Custer" wolf stands alone Ill tho history of the Biological Sur vev's campaign against predatory ahi- mals. He worked alone, with the eA- oon+ion of two coyotes that he used as flankguards on his raidlng trlpS' He never ate from the same carcass thing that made hls canture difficult and his destructloh of cattle severe.
  after a score of other hunters anu trappers had despaired of outwitFlhs the bandit, the "Custer' wolf fell De- foro Williams's rifle just before AT mistice Day, 1920, and Custer ooo'A Dakota, staged celebration that out shone that of November Ii, 1918. Fhe death of the "Custer" wolf meant the emancipation of the stockmen or ''e p,oob Hills country from the ravages of the lone bandit.
 The Lone Wolf of Custer no" stands in the National Museum oi History, in Washington, forever me- morial to the United StaIe oe'' shot"

ELY GARAGE TO
HAVE CAMP GROUND

A free camping ground on an elab-
crate scale is the plan OF E. Il. Mil
Ter, the enterprising proprietor OF
the East Ely garage. 1t Will be n
of the finest institutions of the kind
in every respect in the intermoun-
tain country.
The camping area is to be enclosed
by a substantial fence, excluding 1t
from public view and protecting the
campers from wind and distressing
weather conditions. 1t will have
designated camping spaces of ample
capacity for any number of cars and
the camps Of their occupants. In
addition there will be a garage for
repairs of campers cars, a rack to
wash them, an accessory store, a
grease trap, a shower bath. toilets
on two sides of the grounds and a
cesspool to the north.
Ground has been broken for the
starting of the work. which at first
will consist of smoothing the tract
for campers and making temporary
arrangements for attractiveness.
In addition to these plans Mr..
Miller sometime in the near future
will build an entirely new garage on
a much larger scale than the present
one and in every appointment equal
TO any In the district. In the main
storage room there will be space for
twenty-thrce cars, with an entrance
at either end, it facing north and
south. In the east wing there will
be a repair room with space for
seven cars in repair.
There will be an accessory store.
