The army's part in the affair is to decide whether navigation will be affected.

The first rabbit snares ever found in Colorado or any western state where the cliff dwellers once lived, were recently found by a party of explorers in a prehistoric Indian cliff dwelling, near Grand Junction, Colo.

One of the remarkable things is the splendid state of preservation of the snares. They and the arrows were buried under rock and dust nearly three feet deep which had fallen down during the ages since the cliff dwellers had left them in the large cavern. They had never been moistened and the strings of the snares which were hand twisted soap weed cord, are so strong that even today they cannot be broken with the hands. One end of the cord is tied to a short piece of wood, through which a hole has been made. The free end is then pulled through the hole, leaving a loop in which the Indian caught his rabbits.

With the rapid development of airplane service to and from Alaskan points, the problem arises concerning the future of the dogs which have been bred here for years as burden-bearers during the winter months.

Already, complaints are on file here, from numerous places, that dogs! loosed from their leashes, are reverting to the wild state and killing deer and moose. Many of these reports are from coast towns, where Indian owners of dogs have gone fishing for salmon and have left the dog families behind, generally without provision and shelter. Consequently, dogs, formerly very valuable, have gradually become the worst kind of pests. Under a law here, it is forbidden to injure or kill prowling dogs the statute having been formed when the canines were the prospector's and the trapper's best friends. the Chinese will put an end to the While the sand is being termed the repealed attacks on merchant vessels Fifth, it in reality is a stray stratum by Nanking and Wuhan soldiers who tofar drilling i of la singly dar d.
