BE LlLEfl PET 1ICTIMPL0T CcttiV' Terns Coyote, Has His Tcil Amputated by Three Wild Crothcrs. irtS CONDITION SERIOUS

THRU REVENGEFUL COYOTES CHEWED HOLE IN CAGE PARTI TION AND "COTTIE" FOOLISHLY LET TAIL THROUGH. . The three semi-savage coyote which occupy the same quarters la the Glen coo, went to extremes recently In get ting revenge on "Cottle," a tarns coy ' ote, which occupied adjacent quarters. displaying the utmost cunning In carrying out their plans. The wild coyotes have never attract ed very much attention of the public, principally because they would show their teeth and occasionally snap at their benefactors. ' However, with "Cottle," things were different, and he knew how to work on his human ad mlrers sympathies. He was so tame as to be more like a dog than a treacherous coyotte. Visitors delighted in 'sharing their dainties with him and he would not have starved even, If the too caretak r had not fed him In addition, he was often taken out of his quarters and allowed to romp over the park, some times with and sometimes Vithout a collar and chain On these occasions, he would play with his caretakers in the most friendly sort of way Tsle of a Lost Tail. Last week. Superintendent Ed Hoi lern, who usually cared for "Cottle," noticed that there was a small hole in the wooden partition between the coy ote quarters He thought this strange at the time, but paid no further atten tion to It "Cottle" had been in the habit of sleeping along the partition, where the hole so mysteriously appear ed. On Friday afternoon some of the park employes were attracted to the coyote quarters by the yelps of "Cot tle," and the uproar In the other cage. It was found that "Cottle's" tall had slipped through th hole and was being held by two of the animals while a third was busily engaged In amputating It The men were unable to stop the proceedings In time and when they opened the cage door "Cottle", was a bob tailed coyote. It was thought at first that the ani mal's wound was not serious, but blood poisoning hss set In. and his life Is now dlspalred. He is In the care of a vet erinarian. . It Is believed by. the park assistants that the' wild coyotes chewed the opening In the partition to such a else as to allow the other animal's tall to slip through while sleeping. There have been few tragedies In. the xoo so clev erly executed-as the one which befell "Cottle." . The Areh. v . ... - The consensus of opinion among' th learned Is to the effect thai the arch was Invented by the Romans. Some claim that Archimedes of Sicily was the Inventor, while there arc others who would make It to be of Etrurian origin, but there can be no doubt about tb fact that the Romans were, the first to apply the principle to archi tecture. Tbe earliest Instance of Its us Is In tbe case of the Cloaca Max lma. or Great sewer, of Rome, built about 683 B.

Colonization for

This Plan Today Advocated by Dr. A. M. Forster at Washington Convention- Sanatoria Plan Is Favored.

(American News Service) Washington, May 4. Colonization of consumptives in the Southwest was the scheme advocated by Dr. A. M. Forster in a paper presented today before the sociological section of the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis on the . best kind, of employment for tubersulosls cases, who, when discharg ed from hospitals and sanatoria re lapse into their former condition be cause of bad environment. Dr. Forster demonstrated , that the present machinery in the anti-tuber culosis campaign was Inadequate and that It did ' not provide for the tuber culosis : sufferer at the most critical time in bis existence when he, left the sanatorium or hospital:. In view of this fact, he advocated that Institu tions in which tuberculosis .cases were treated should be equipped with large farms upon . which the convalescent consumptives, might learn the rudiments of agriculture. He stated that in his opinion farming was the most suitable work that a cured consumptive could attempt. After the tuber culous Individual has learned how to farm, opportunity should be given to him to carry-on this occupation with the least possible amount of . worry and strain. Dr. Forster therefore advocated that large colonies of consumptives gathered from sanatoria in all parts of the United States should be formed in the southwest on land which could be Irrigated with comparatively little expense, and that here they should live and work for the rest of their lives. This would not only help to solve the problem of congestion In the city, but would materially lengthen the lives of many. consumptives who are bound to relapse into their former condition within a comparatively short .time after their return to the congested city life. Dr. Forster demonstrated from his experience at the Eudowood Sanatorium in Maryland," of which he was formerly superintendent, that a farm colony conducted by an institution of this sort could be made absolutely self-supporting -and could be conducted In such manner that it might produce a substantial revenue. Likewise he contended that farm - colonies of tuberculosis "graduates" of sanataria could be conducted so that they would offer ample support to those who were running them. . . Dr. Forster's Paper. Dr. C P.'. Wertenbaker, medical officer In command of the United States Public Health and Marine Hospital Service of Norfolk, Ya., advocated the establishment of farm sanatoria by every city, town and village In the United States. He demonstrated by figures that such Institutions, conducted In co-operation with the state agricul tural departments could be conducted on an absolutely self-supporting basis, with no cost to the community except that of establishment. In addition to this, the farm sanatorium would afford to the consumptive both a cure for his disease and an opportunity to learn a new occupation In which he might earn his livelihood. : Dr., W. J.; Vogeler, attending physician at the Sprain Ridge Sanatorium at Yonkers, N. Y. brought out the following points In his discussion : "Yonkers is essentially a factory town. Our patients coming In great part from the working class must necessarily return to some kind of work, when they leave Sprain Ridge, to earn a living for themselves and family. We have attempted from ,: the beginning to get them In good condition to return to work , by graduated exercises and the like. The majority have retruned to. the factories and occupations they were accustomed to when they first came to us. Some at first were advised to obtain outside occupation, such as conductors, trolleymen and caddies. . We have found, howev'er, that almost all of those who re turned to their old occupation, under

jj

Consumptives conditions of better hygiene and near open windows improved so much more quickly, and that many of those who went to work . at outside occupation faired so poorly because of the long and irregular hours and the mental strain, that for some time past : we have been advising our discharged pa tients to return tothe work they are most accustomed to and have been getting very much better results." Dr. David Russell Lyman, superin tendent of the Gay lord Farm Sanator ium. Wallingford, Conn., demonstrat ed by careful statistical studies which he had made from the' records of his institution that wherever it is possi bie. It is better for the discharged tu berculosls patient to resume his old occupation! Dr. - Lyman proved "the benefit of this course of procedure both from the mental, financial and physical aspects. A Fresh Start. A girl came in and sat in front. of them at the play, sbe and her escort "What a lovly profile!" ; said he. "Beautiful! ' Delicate little upturned nose, small mouth, deep, pretty eyes! Isn't sbe beautiful beautiful ? "Beautiful," said she. "but not half so much so as the man she Is with. Isn't he the handsomest chap you ever saw? Look at his color, his mustache, i his lovely bead of ; hair. So many men are bald or beginning to be bald. . I do love to see a fine head of hair on a man." "You know," be whimpered, ''it al ways makes me sore to speak of people beginning to be bald. . and you know why." "Will you let up on the pretty profile If I cut out the bald head?" she asked, "Yes." said he. . "All right." said she. New York Press, . Born to Starve, Many years ago an American natu ralist, Dana, discovered on the surface of the sea a little animal, of so singu lar a character that : he named it "monstrilla." It Is a small crustacean akin to the cyclops so common in ponds. But, while the latter are fur nished with all that Is necessary, to capture and digest their food, the mon strilla has neither apparatus for seizing prey nor any digestive tube. It is richly provided with muscles, nervous system and organs of sense; it lacks only what Is necessary to prolong life by alimentation. The monstrilla - Is doomed, therefore, to natural death.

I remember being on a Chicago street ?nr. says Ellis -Parker Butler in Success Magazine, sitting beside a ufce old lady in mourning a year ' or so ago. She was nervous and kept glancing at me and then glancing away again. It made me uncomfortable. I .thought she took me for a pickpocket or some other bad man. Finally she could contain herself no longer. Sbe leaned over. "Excuse me." she said. "but have you heard yet" bow the Cubs' game came out?" ; I hadn't, and her face fell, but in a moment she saw a possible opportunity for consolation. ' Well." she asked, "can yu tell me who tbey are putting in the box today?" How was that for a gray haired grandma? In Chicago they all talk baseball from the cradle to tbe grave. Up to 3 o'clock in the afternoon during tbe baseball season no one talks about anything but, the game of the day before. From 3 o'clock on tbe only subject is the game that is being played.

ART CRITICISM. A Story a Painter Told About the Artist Constable. A well known New York painter told at a luncheon a story about art criticism. "All art criticism is tolerable. he said, "except that which la insincere. The great Constable at a varnishing day at the Royal academy paused before A's picture and said: "'Very good, especially the sky. Tbe sky Is superb.' . "Then he passed on to B and said: A's picture is very bad.. Go look at it. The sky Is like putty. So B went and looked and then exclaimed as If to himself: ' , - "Why. I like the sky!' - Well cried A, the painter of the picture. why shouldn't yon like my skyr - 'But Constable said it was like putty,, B explained confusedly. "So A In a furious rags strode up to Constable and shouted: "Constable, you're a - humbug. I never asked for your opinion about my picture, yet you came to me and praised it. You said that especially you liked my sky. Then at once you go off and tell some one else that my sky Is like potty "Constable listened, with a smllei He was not at all confused. "My dear fellow, yon don't understand,' he said; 1 like putty.' -Los Angeles Times. Fatal Friction.

Acton, of this city is the owner of a Plymouth Rock hen, whose persistent efforts to hatch a brood of chicks in a box occupied by a cat and three young kittens. have resulted in a remarkable state of affairs, possibly unequalled anywhere. A number of eggs have been taken from the hen, but nevertheless she remains in the nest and mothers the young kittens as she would a brood of chicks. The attention given the kit tens by tbe old hen has weaned from them the affection of the mother cat, and she has entirely abandoned them John Loots, a neighbor of Mr. Acton, is the possessor of a perfectly normal young Plymouth Rock chick.' with the exception that the bird has three legs. The extra leg is in the center of the chick's body, and has five toes on the foot.

His passage '.vas engaged for May 4. but he was uot able to sail. 1 saw him on the morning of May 11. 1907. "I told them I would see you. Willy," be said, "even if 1 were dylug." We sat together for some time. He did not speak much, nor could I speak much to him. It seemed best. t but We should both pretend to believe that be would soon he well, but 1 knew that I should never see him again. When he did speak it was little uiore thau a murmured word or two. His mind was busy wit b'V't he past. Severn I times be mentioned .Jefferson auJ tits paintings "Studies iu green they are."-he said Once he spoke aloud to himself. ,! have not lived a: bad life."

I had tried many different doctors and medicines without success, and my mother brought tne the Cuticura Remedies, insisting that I try them. I began to feel better after the first bath with Cuticura Soap, and one application at Cuticura Ointment. "I continued with the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment, and have taken four bottles of Cuticura Resolvent, and .consider. myself well. .

De Voy and Dayton Sisters in eccentric dancing. DeVarra and Zemater, the horisontal bar comiques, and the motion pictures are all pleasing numbers on the delightful bill. 'Richmond Stock Co. Richmond's own stock company is giving an excellent account of itself this week in John A. Preston's new play, "Carter of the Lazy Y." Mr. Car ter In the title role gives a finished performance of the owner of the Laxy Y ranch, which ' is loveable in all respects. Mr. Rex D. Rosselli as Harri son Swift is again proving h tinsel t-an actor of rare merit. Miss Edna Row land has firmly entrenched herself in the hearts of tlie Richmond people, and Miss Lidia Hall is supplying a large amount of the humor as the Widder. Miss Dorothy Smith as Isa bel Dillingham is giving ? an artistic and altogether excellent performance and praise is being showered on her from all sides. Mr. Terrlo as Isabel's father, Mr. Greenfield as an English Lord and Mr. .Hoouer Ashley as the foreman of the Lazy Y ranch all add to a performance which is altogether one of the most cn'ayable seen here for a long time. - Miss patsy.National political conventions have' Big Fours Iu the shate of the delo-" gates at large from states; financiers gather railroads together in an im-' portant group and caption the assembled ouartet "Big Four" and the very best clover hss four leaves.
