BY the Associated Press.
PIERRE, S. Oak, December IA
graceful, aristocratic and vari-colored
bird, the Chinese ring-neCked pleas
ant, Is thriving on the prairies of
South Dakota.
The game bird has grown beyond
the most optimistic hopes of the State
department of agriculture, which in
troduced it, and is attracting more
and more hunters each year from a
dozen Middle Western States and a
few beyond
Gratified with the success of pleas
ant introduction, the agricultural de.
partment now plans to bringin a vast
number of Hungarian partridgeS, an
other bird which is counted among the
game of kings, and which Is expected
TO find an agreeable environment in
Dakota.
Hunting fees are used mostly to
provide protection for the game birds
when the hunting season is closed and
for establishing preserves where
young birds are cared for until they
may be released.

NOME, Alaska, December sheer
novelty of transportation is the claim
TO fame of the Pupmobile railroad be-
tween Nome and Shelton, for the
trains are minus both locomotives and
engineers.
The motive power is furnished by
husky dogs and the railroad crew is
composed of the passengers them
selves. Operation of the trains con-
sists solely in welding a whip. except
in cases where two trains meet be-
tween sidings. In that contingency
the one with the lighter load Is lifted
from the track while the other passes.
Then the "engine" is hitched on again
and the journey continues.
The railroad has 81 miles OF narrow
rauge track. 1t was built in the early
days Of Alaska mining to connect the
Kougarok mining district with the
coast. and was bought by the Terri
tory three years ago. 1t is now oper-

PROHIBITION
AGENTS STAGE
RAIDS MONDAY
OFFICERS FROM TAMPA
MAKE SEARCH OF HALF A
DOZEN PLACES YESTERDAY
AFTERNOON

Two Tampa prohibition officers
conducted series of raids in this
city yesterday afternoon. They
had six search warrants, and liquor
was found at only one of the half
dozen places searched. That was
the place operated by d. L. Cash,
at the corner of Greene and Fitz-
patrick streets. He was given a
preliminary hearing before JUS
tice of the Peace Rogelio Gomez
and placed under bond of 5000
for his appearance in court.
j. f. Cooper and E. A. Murphey
are the two officers who staged
the rains here yesterday. They
came to town and first paid their
respects to the sheriff's office
here, when they were assured by
Chief Deputy A. H. McInnis that
they would receive every aid and
cooperation that the sheriff's of
flee and force could give them.
They then went to Justice Gomez
and arranged to have the pre-
liminary hearings before his court.
Robert Carey, constable for the
second district, was detailed to ac-
company the officers in their
rounds.
Reports from the proprietors of
the places visited by Cooper and
M'arphey are to the effect that
these officers conducted them
selves in a perfectly gentlemanly
manner, making their raids in a
quiet, orderly and lawful way.
Even the man who was arrested
stated in the sheriff's office this
morning that the officers conduct
ed themselves as gentlemen in
every respect while searching his
place of business.
j. +. Cooper stated to Citi-
zen representative this morning
that he brought six search war
rants with him, that he served
them all, and had less trouble in
the discharge Of his duty here
than he had ever had anywhere
else.
Chief Deputy Al II. McTnnis
stated to these officers that their
gcntlemanly conduct stood out in
striking contrast with the be-
havior Of the Miami officers who
staged sensational raids here in
February, and assured the officers
that any prohibition officer or set
of officers who would come to this
city upon legal business would be
welcomed by the local city and
county officers and would be given
all aid and cooperation, so long
as their conduct was in keeping
with that Of an officer of the
law.
Officers ]. +. Cooper and Il. A.
Murphey are leaving tonight on
their return trip to Tampa. and
will hand to the state prohibition
director very favorable report
