COYOTES REVEAL COOPERATION
STALKING ELUSIVE PHEASANT
WALLA WALLA, July 11. _
That coyotes understand the rudi
ments of cooperation is indicated by
a story told by Thomas Speer, a far
mer on Mill Creek, near here.
A coyote attracted his attention as
he was plowing, Speer said. It paced
to and iro, like a sentry on guard
duty. A ChineXe pheasant rooster a
short distance beyond was being
forced slowly away from the animal,
since with each round trip the coy
ote came a little closer to the fowl’s
position. Then, beyond the bird, a
second coyote wras discerned, crouch
ed, -waiting. Presently the waiting
coyote became impatient, and leap
ed at the pheasant, missing it.
The bird flew away, and the two
coyotes departed together.
IRISH CHILDREN EARLY
FIX MINDS ON GETTING
TO U. S., SAYS DOCTOR
DUBLIN, July 11. (/P)—In evdence
before the commission on the state
of the Irish language in the Irish
speaking distrcts, Dr. William O’
Beirne, medical officer of County
Galway, said that Irish was seldom
used by officials of the local bodies
ir the country. Very few solicitors
'rere able to converse in Irish and
1 e knew of only one barrster vvhj
bad mastered the tongue.
He did not believe, he said that
the soil in these western districts
was sufficient to maintain the pres
ent population which depended a
good deal on friends and families in
America.
“From the time they leave school
at the age of 12 or 13, the poor chil
dren of Connemara have their thots
fixed on America, and how they can
get away to it,” he declared.
FUNERAL OF NOTED DWARF
ATTENDED BY THOUSANDS
MANILA, July 11. (£>)— Diki Diki,
the Moro dwarf of Jolo, who was
known throughout the Philippines as
well as in Borneo and many other
! islands in the South Sea, died re
cently in Zamboanga. He -was visit
ing a friend there when he contract
ed a cold and died of pneumonia.
Diki Diki, despite his 49 years, was
only 37 inches in height and weighed
| only 25 pounds. He is survived by
J his widow, Bunjung Fatima, who is
35 years old, 35 inches in height and
weighs 20 pounds.
The wedding of this diminutive
pair two years ago was one of the
most noted events of its kind. Diki
Diki’s funeral, conducted according
to Mohammedan rites, was attended
by thousands of people.
For a number of years Diki Diki
exhibited himself at carnivals in the
Philippines and adjoining islands.
For the first time in many years
I considerable complaint is heard from
the hardy oldtimers of the district
with reference to the large number of
mosquitos, gnats, and moose flies in
the hills and mountains.

DANGER LOSING
WEST’ARD TRADE
Libbyville Cannery Official Asserts
Seward Is Proper Point for
Airplane Service
WANTS SEWARD TO GET BUSY
Similar Company as Interior Would
Be a Paying Proposition for
Its Promoters
A prophesy was made yesterday by
Dave W. Branch, a Libby, McNeil &
Libby cannery official, who returned to
Seward yesterday from a trip of in
spection to the Kenai plant, when he
said if Seward did not take immediate
action to have this port serve as an
airplane base for the westward dis
trict some other town would beat us
to it, thereby losing much traffic and
business which it otherwise would
get. Every man who makes the trip
to the far westward points would pat
ronize such service, he stated.
“Some smart chap should line up
1 local capital and purchase a couple of
good planes,” Mr. Branch continued.
“Get the best aviators you can pro
cure, men like Pilot Noel Wien, who
is flying for the Fairbanks Airplane
Company. There is an aviator for
you. Go get him if you can. Offer
him a better salary than he is now
getting and, for example, say ten per
cent of the profits.
“The Fairbanks company, as far as
one can judge, is a financial success,
and here in Seward you people have
as good, if not better, opportunities
for making the venture a commercial
| success as the Interior company. You
folks want to get busy.
“I should judge a fair estimate of
the cost of going into the Bristol Bay
region, at the present mode of travel,
at around $100. The round trip would
be around $200. What canneryman
would not pay this for one way via air
plane? None. Think of the time anni
hilated and the comfort in making
the voyage as compared to what it is
now. Short side trips out of Seward
could be made for moderate sums to
many points nearby, and to Cook In
let.
“Only a few days ago I heard that
a Mr. Wolf, a business man from Boze
man, Mont., wanted to go to Katmai,
but owing to transportation difficul
ties cancelled the trip and returned
to the States. This is simply one
reason out of many why airplane ser
vice should be inaugurated from this
port at once. Get good planes and get
them started,” Mr. Branch exclaimed,
‘‘and they will lead to better things.”
Mr. Branch had intended to make
an inspection trip to the six canneries
at Libbyville, but owing to an attack
of rheumatism had to forego the trip
this year. He will depart for his Se
attle office Sunday on the Alaska.
