MIGRATORY BROTHERS OF DO
MESTICATED ANIMALS DECI
MATE BIG BAND
A case of cattle rustling that offers
a poser for the law-enforcement or
ganization and puts into the shade the
prohibition game#of “hi-spy” presents
itself in Broad Pass.
Practically an entire herd of several
hundred reindeer has melted away.
Jonathan Wagner, chief of the Bi
ological Survey, Bureau of Education
l in Alaska, who passed through Seward
l yesterday en route to Anchorage,
. where he will make his headquarters.
For some time it has been known
that reindeer have been disappearing
from the Broad Pass herds. On one
occasion a herd of a hundred odd an
imals were recovered after' being A.
O. L. for a season. A band of cari
bou had lured them to a secluded spot
and fought off the reindeer bulls, an
nexing the feminine members of the
herd as spoils of war.
Mr. Wagner said yesterday he was
not decided as to what to do, but hint
ed that reprisals would be taken
against the caribou rustlers by cap
turing an equal number from their
harems.
“As far as the reindeer are concern-'
[ ed,” said Mr. Wagner, "they are just
[ domesticated caribou, and herds may
| be built up from the wild animals. All
the fiction about a reindeer being un
able to exist without moss has been
exploded.” Pointing to "Reiny,” Sew
ard’s official towm pet, ivfr. Wagner
V
indicated the animal as the answer to
the question of feeding. "Reiny^ is
as fat as a squab and runs a burro
a tight race on variety of palatable
tit-bits, from bright red tomato can
wrappers to the candy the kids feed
him. In fact about the only gastro
nomic vice he does not possess is
drinking w’hite mule.
"There is a great future in live rein
deer,” continued Mr. WTagned. "Soon
they will be shipped to the States to
be used to stock private and public
game preserves. Animals of the deer
family are becoming scarce in the
States, and sportsmen will eventually
be calling for wTild caribou to shoot.”
Mr. and Mrs. A. Ericson, who have
been residing in the Graef apart
ments, have moved into their resi
dence on Sixth Avenue. The home
has been under a complete renova
tion during the past few weeks.
