Save Rug Maker.
Flagstaff, Arl*.—As the beating of
tom-toms reached a frenzied pitch and
itired and worn dancera of the Navajo
tribe were making laat efforts to pad-
jfy angry gods, the wife of Hosteen
rge Bancroft, the greatest of NaT-
ceremonial rag makers, emerged
her hogan—cured.
Her Illness prompted medicine men
send their swiftest runners across
rts and through rock-walled can-
'ons to call their people together to
:e part in weird ceremonials to ap-
pease the gods.
The medicine men had feared that
Pie would be unable to finish the fa-
ous ceremonial rug on which she
(was working.
The weird pattern of the rug was
known to no one but the 111 blanket
maker, and unless she lived, the medi-
cine men opined, the anger of the
gods would sweep down upon the des-
ert grazing grounds of their people.
Throbbing tom-toms and huge bea-
con fires aided the swift Indian run-
iners in calling their people together
■for the ceremonials, at a small trading
■post in the midst of desert wastes on
the reservation near here.
Worried looks appeared on the faces
of the tired dancers and ceremonial
•chiefs as a week passed, and the ill
'blanket weaver failed to come forth
ifrom her specially built hogan.
More runners were ordered to gath-
er the people and bigger fires were
Sighted and frantic prayers made to
the gods asking the maker of rugs be
saved.
Just as the thumping of the tom-
toms reached a splitting pitch and the
frenzied dancers began to show signs
of exhaustion, there came a sound
from the chamber of the ill woman.
"Whoopee!" shouted the blanket
maker, as she joined her tribesmen in
the chanting prayer of thankfulness
then started for her recovery.
Attacking Cat Limps Howl-
ing Away Aftsr Brush
With Pig.
... •
West I'oint, Gu.—Wild razor-back
hogs will light without quarter in de-
fense of their young.
Even the panthers which Infest the
wilils of the Martin lake country iu
Alabama are no match for an infuri-
ated sow driven to protect her brood,
according to Guy Coffee, editor of the
West 1'olnt News, who reports wit-
nessing such a battle.
Coffee was on a bunting trip to Mar
tin lake and arose early to roam the
wilds with his rifle, lie shortly came
upon the wild sow, leading her brood
to breakfast. Shortly a panther ar-
rived to dispute possession of the pigs.
The Pantlier Lunges.
Willi a grunt of warning, the sow
scampered the pi.-.s into a protecting
pit, then stood guard against the ever
shortening, increasingly menacing cir-
cles of the attacking cat—about the
size of a large dog. Always, Coffee
said, the sow kept between the cat
and her young.
Finally the panther lunged. The
sow made a successful parry and
caught the cat's paw in her jaws.
There followed a wild flurry in which
the cat extricated herself to limp
howling away to lick the mangled
member.
During the fight which by no means
ended with the first direct contact, Cof-
fee said, both the sow and the cat in
county to appear at the next regular
term of the Dlstriot court of Cber-

public by the university authorities.

month, according to the analysis. This

The fair onea spend $7,000 a month
less than the men In the university

ways called out loudly for reinforce-
ments.
Reinforcements Come.
The cat's came tirst, a male mate
which came bounding over the briars,
went to her side and joined In the
menacing circle. Together they drove
the sow Into the shallow pit and al-
ternately leaped over It, slashing vi-
ciously with their paws.
Throughout it all, Coffee said, the
sow refused to budge despite a rap-
idly Increasing quota of wounds which
shredded her ears and streaked her
back with bleeding gashes.
The fight was so unequal, the edi-
tor said, that he opened fire on the mule
cat, sending him spinning on his ear
just as aid for the sow came charging
through the briars. And while the
original attacker limped hurriedly
away, Coffee said, the razor-back re-
inforcements tore her mate to pieces.
A few days later, Toffee said, he
went back to the same loeallty and
saw the battle-scarred sow again lead-
ing her brood, apparently well on the
way to complete recovery.
Americans Lead World
in Consumption of Soap
Chicago.—Monday wash days and
Saturday night baths have combined
to place Americans at the top of the
soap consuming nations. This is In
spite of the reluctance of little junior
to have his ears washed, according to
Itoscoe C. Edlund, general director of
the Cleanliness Institute, at the an-
nual meeting of the Association of
American Soap and Glycerine Produc-
ers here.
Higher cleanliness standards incu;
cated into our people by physicians,
public health authorities, and educat-
ors have made necessary the output
of 3,000,000,000 pounds of soap each
year. Compared to our 25 pound per
capita average is the four pound av
erage tn most European countries.
Boy's Mistake Moves
Picture of Ex-Governor
Boston, Mass.—A schoolboy pointed
to a portrait of Gov. Edmund Andros
as il bung In the hallway of the ex-
ecutive chamber of the statehouse.
"Why, that man was a pirate and he
was hanged, too," exclaimed the
youngster.
Later the portrait was transferred
to a less conspicuous part of the build-
ing. But both the charges preferreu
by the youngster were untrue. Sir
Edmund died a natural death. Three
years after he had been appointed
governor of New England by King
James II, in 1086, a revolution broke
out nnd bis Imprisonment followed.
Me was tried on plrncy charges which
failed to be proved.
Plaintiff prays the Court that defend-
ant be cited to appear and answer
herein, for judgment dissolving jsaid north 604.4 vrs to the place of be j!
