WONDERFUL LITTLE VALLEY Irrigated Tracts in the Great Northwest Wh Yields Are Fabulous. DERFUL LITTLE VA Tracts in the Great Northwest Yields Are Fabulous. WONDERFUL LITTLE VALLEYS The orchards and vineyards of the great Southwest have been portrayed as the place where lands reach their highest cultural development and most astounding value. As against the Eastern farm, worth $150 to $200 an acre, choice orange land in Southern California is valued at $1,000 and even $1,500 an acre. And this does not seem so highly unreasonable when it is remembered that oranges, figs, almonds, Malaga grapes, pomegranates and other tropical products cannot be grown and grown. Yet there are orchards in the great Northwest which are esteemed as highly and yield as golden a stream from peaches, apricots, berries, and other common fruits, as has ever been The image shows a large body of water with a distant shoreline covered in trees. The water appears calm, reflecting the sky and the surrounding vegetation. The shoreline is lined with dense foliage, including tall trees and shrubs. The sky is clear with no visible clouds.

Take the Yakima valley, or the Wenatchee valley or a dozen other mountain valleys in Washington, or some of the finely developed fruit regions of Montana or Colorado. There you can find men growing wealthy on returns from ten and even five-acre orchards. Perhaps the valley of the Wenatchee in Central Washington affords one of the best examples of the fruit possibilities of the Northwest—situated in the midst of that region which Daniel Webster described as "fit only for the abode of wild beasts and wilder men." The wonderful development of this valley has been brought about entirely by private irrigation development, yet the government irrigation engineers consider it an almost ideal irrigation environment. In the first place there is a splendid water supply. To the west are the gleaming snow fields of the Cascade mountains whose glacial streams feed the swift-running Wenatchee river, which as it emerges from the valley becomes a tributary of the great Columbia. The valley is sheltered from the bleak winds by surrounding hills, which that fruit trees have never been known to be damaged by cold. There are no great farms on the Wenatchee.

Why then should not land; five acres of which will net one thousand and twenty-five hundred dollars, be worth five thousand or seven thousand five hundred dollars? The interest is liberal, is it not? There seems to be something very superior in the fruit raised in the Northwest. It finds a ready market in New York. It is Boston, and brings a price which moves more heavily express charges.

The roads are like streets and schools and college use intervals. No more highly urban communities can be found in the world that the irrigated fruit communities of this country. The water for irrigating the valley is drawn from the Wenatchee river, 22 APPLES ON 22 INCHES OF LIMB. through some thirty miles of ditch of the Wenatchee Canal company. This company is now projecting an extension to cross the-Columbia river-a great $160,000 combined bridge and viaduct to carry water for irrigating 8,000 additional acres. In commenting upon the fact that the national government is not antagonizing legitimate private irrigation development, but that, on the other hand, the reclamation service is favorable to it, and even willing to assist, Engineer Arthur P. Davis, who in Chief Engineer Newell's absence was found in charge of the bureau at Washington, mentioned the case of the Wenatchee valley as somewhat exceptional. "Many small companies," he said, "have accomplished much good in transforming the great American deserts and habitable farms. A very valuable lesson of an instance where private investment stepped in and reclaimed land which was formerly waste may be found in the Wenatchee valley.

Mother Earth every particle of plant life which the land can be made to give up. The Wenatchee valley land, before the irrigation company stepped in, had, I might say, no value. It was but the home of a few wild animals, with little or no semblance of plant life. Under the wise administration of the company, the tract has enormously increased in value. The climate is ideal; no ice winds into the valley to injure crops before it freezes, and the soil which had been reeking for centuries, only needed the kind of water to make it blossom and bring forth fruit. We have considered the settlement of the Wenatchee valley so ideal that it has been taken as an example after which to pattern the Okanogan project, in Washington, now under construction by the reclamation service."—Guy E.

That America offers ample opportunities within its boundaries for the American artist is, of course, generally conceded. It is rarely, however, that artists go so far afield for their material or are more earnest in their search for characteristic native subjects than in the past. More than half of them. There is probably no more picturesque material of its nature than the life of the Pueblo Indians. These tribes have retained so much of their primitive character, they are recognized as so intimate a link between the present and the mysterious past of our continent, as to well repay the most painstaking study. The representatives of several museums have visited these people and have collected much of their interest. It is thought by some authorities that they have many bonds with the ancient Aztecs and retain many of their manners and customs. The study is naturally one of fascinating interest. It has remained, however, for the artist to picture these strange people and bring their curious life most vividly before us. The Pueblos have been repeatedly photographed and sketched and painted. The original studies, which are reproduced herewith, serve, however, to portray them in their identity. Juillin, it is perhaps necessary, has been appointed an officer of the French academy, a decoration which the French government has bestowed upon few American. Not the least charm of these studies of Indian life is their absolute fidelity in point of drawing and color to the originals. Mr. Julillin has brought to his work a genuine sympathy for his subject matter and a wide knowledge of the life he is reproducing. He has lived in all three years among the Puebios. His work is also unique from the fact that his paintings were completed in New Mexico. He is probably the first artist who has visited these Indian tribes and has actually painted them from life. The common practice for an artist is to spend a few days among these AN ANCIENT INDUSTRY. tribes, take a number of photographs and later, in the seclusion and comfort of some city studio, to transfer the pictures to canvass. Much is, of course, lost. It is, of course, possible to reproduce the drawing of a group on figure, but for the rest the artist must depend entirely upon his memory, or nearly so. The color schemes must inevitably lose much of their value and in a country where the brilliant sun, shining upon so many barbaric colors, lends them a peculiar value, the loss is irreparable. lives as few white men have ever done before. Mr. Juillin obtained his first models in a most unexpected fashion. He had been refused permission to paint from life, when on night he heard a stealthy knock his door. He opened it and found an Indian crouching before him in the shadow, who begged him with a gesture not to speak, but let him enter once indoors, and out of sight and hearing, the Indian explained that he would pose for Mr. Juillin if the secret The difficulties of this enterprise were increased by the size of the canvases. It is one thing to sketch a very small canvas and paint under these peculiar conditions. It is quite another to set up a canvas measuring three by five feet or some similar dimensions. The Pueblos are naturally a superstitious people, and many objects are raised. It seems to be a settled conviction among them that the artist who reproduces their pictures takes something of their souls from them—certainly from their point of view a dangerous experiment. And, aside from the difficulties of modeling models, the inconvenience, which has made discomfort, connected with life among dancers was enough to daunt any one but a very earnest man. The curious adobe houses which the Pueblos have built for centuries, while exceedingly pictureque, do not make very comfortable homes. There are no hotels in the civilized sense. A brief visit is full of discomforts. When a visit is continued for months, even years, it certainly denotes a very earnest pur- Dr. Stephen H. Robin, pastor of the Columbus Avenue Universalist church, Boston, was calling on an old lady, one of his parishioners, before going away on his summer vacation, when his church is always closed. The old lady evidently did not believe in ministral vacations, for she said: "Doctor, remember Satan never 'moved a vacation'. 'My amam,' answered the doctor. "I never did believe in 'mitigation Satan.'" Defective Page PEAL AY. JANUARY 26, 1907. JURY C AT CLOSE RANGE Nuillin Depicting the Present Ancient Race. pose upon the part of the visitor. The food served to Mr. Nuillin during his long visits was the native food. The principal luxury, incidentally, was sun dried beef. The Indians raise a little corn, but their, of gardening, and especially of farming, and especially of gardening, ends there. At certain seasons there is a little game to help out the bill of fare. Add to this the alkali water which one must drink in this region, and the strain upon the visitor's digestive system may be in part realized. CHILD Mr. Juillin, from his long stay among the Indians, came to know them well and to win their confidence. In the end he was thus enabled to gain favors which probably no mere outlander could possibly obtain. The permission to paint, or rather the consent of the Indians to pose, especially in the case of women and children, seemed at first out of the question. As time went on, the artist's presence came to be tolerated, until in the end he was permitted to enter into their consequence. To see the picture grow before their eyes and recognize the faces and their trinkets reproduced lifelike colors proved to be an endless novelty and a source of delight. Their critical comment on the finished picture was usually the same. "You know a heap," they would remark. And so, through many months of study, Mr. Juillin came to know the Pueblos probably as no other subject has ever known them. He picture life not as that seen by the occasion. lives as few white men have ever done before. Mr. Juillin obtained his first models in a most unexpected fashion. He had been refused permission to paint from life, when one night he heard a stealthy knock at his door.

This mysterious volunteer was followed by others, until finally the ice was broken and the Indians came openly to sit. The Pueblos proved to be excellent models. One of the axioms of their race may be translated somewhat as follows: "Unless you have something to say, it is useless to talk." This piece of philosophy is certainly worthy of a higher civilization. This is a proof that the Indians live up to their philosophy in their stolid faces and limited vocabulary. It is obvious, of course, that such material is admirably suited to the needs of an artist. Mr. Julill found that his models would take any position he would indicate and hold it indefinitely, without a movement or a word of protest. The pose might prove uncomfortable after a short time, but the Indian would continue in the same attitude for hours, often suffering the downward pain in STUDY. consequence. To see the picture grow before their eyes and recognize their faces and their trinkets reproduced in lifelike colors proved to be an caddies, novelty and a source of delight. Their critical comment on the finished picture was usually the same. "You know a heap," they would remark. And so, through many months of study, Mr. Juillin came to know the Pueblos probably as no other artist has ever known them. He pictures life not as that seen by the occasional tourist, but as it came to be known to one who lived among them. The barbarian colors has been caught and painted by the artist which makes an instant appeal. Mr. Juillin has chosen for his subjects familiar household everyday scenes of Pueblo life, and hence their appeal. Incidentally, the pictures certainly justify Mr. Juillin's contention that America contains ample native material for the native artist. In this regard, the Pueblo has a peculiar sense, is sufficient unto idea, a peculiar sense, possibilities come to be realized in a new chapter, too much neglected, will be opened in American art. Recklessness of Partridges. An extraordinary partridge story comes from Conington, Huntingdon, says the London Daily Globe. A lady was reading in her sitting room when, to her consternation, a brace of partridges dashed through the window. They broke two panes of glass but she was doing before doing further damage. It is supposed they were be pursued by a hawk, no guns being out at the time. Partridges look backward in flight and are frequently injured or killed by telegraph wires. Some time ago a partridge dashed into the thick look-out glass of an engine on the Great Eastern railway near Ely and actually smashed it, while it is no unusual thing in Cambridgeshire and Norfolk for them to fly into railway carriages.

GOT OUT AN "EXTRA" CIRCULATION OF THE NEWS A CENTURY AGO. Old "Broadside" Recently Found in Boston Compares Oddly with the Practical Journalism of the Present Day. An interesting example of the method of putting important news before the public a century ago was found in an old news-sheet, or "broadside" recently turned up in a second-hand book dealer's shop in Boston. Any printer, whether he issued a newspaper or not, got out broadsides in those days, whenever he thought an extraordinary piece of news justified him in anticipating a profit. The broadside was a sorg of handbill, printed on one side only, and generally about 8 inches wide by 15 long. This was sold in the streets. The subject of the broadside mentioned above was a hurricane which swept the Massachusetts const a few days prior to Oct. 15, 1804, the date on which the broadside was issued. The heading is "Violent Storm," under a black ink of the North church with its steeled coppling, above which is a row of coffin. The rules are turned, giving a mountain effect. The account of the storm being as follows: "On Tuesday last a violent storm commenced here, and raged until Wednesday morning with unprecedented fury and destruction. "The damage which has been sustained by this tremendous hurricane is very great and extensive. The following particulars are subjoined, viz: The steepele of the North church was blown down_ and several other churches damaged. The brick wall of a house in West Boston blew over and killed a young woman by the name of Lydia Bennet and badly wounded two or three more. "Many houses were unroofed and several new buildings were so much bent and twisted that they must be taken down—chinneys, trees, etc., without number blew down. One of Fall of North Church Steeple. the western stages in passing West Boston bridge was upset by the force of the wind and several of the passengers considerably hurt. "About 35 vessels of different kinds were injured at the wharves and four entirely lost. Two men were drowned by a boat upsetting and likewise a lad by the sinking of a vessel. Chief of the small craft were destroyed. "In short, it spread horror and devastation throughout the whole town." The description states briefly the damage sustained in Charlestown, Salem, Marblehead, Plymouth, Cohasset and Quincy. At Marblehead "33 vessels were driven ashore and some lost, and a number blown out of their harbor, their fate unknown. "At cap Ann dreadful destruction and waste-five vessels in one of which was a lady passenger, lost and four or five others driven to sea and it is supposed are lost with all their crews." It is to be noted that exact information is sadly lacking in these maritime reports. This may be due in part to the fact that one-third the space of the broadside was needed for "A Poem on the Late Hurricane," in 14 verses. One was as follows: On Tuesday last a storm did rise, And all ships in the skies. The gale increased till night, And many people in afright. Another described the loss of shipping thus: It fatal proved to ships, that day, that it was the biggest wildcat. In vain they strived to reach the shore; Alas! they sink to rise no more. *A. Monster Wildcat.* M. H. Ruz, yesterday brought to town the skin of the biggest wildcat ever seen in this part of the country, says the Arizona Republican. He killed it day before yesterday along the Arizona canal. There were four of the cats, of them, says Ruz, bigger than the one he killed, but it was not so belligerent. This cat, instead of running away, advanced upon him, growing and spitting. The animal was about to spring when Ruz shot, the ball taking effect in the head, killing it instantly. The skin was more than four feet from tip to tip. The length of a wildcat is mostly in its body, for the tail does not. This was bigger than some mountain lions and it was probably more destructive.

Distrust nil who would have any one class placed before any other. Other republics have fallen because the unscrupulous have substituted loyalty to class for loyalty to the people as a whole. —President Roosevelt's speech at Little Rock, Ark. SATURDAY, JANUARY 26, 1906. The Charleston News and Courier quotes, with great' pleasure, the follow- ing from the New York Sun: "It is a fact, notwithstanding, that the slave-holders of the last century did more to uplift and help the Negro than all the doctrinaires and societies and governments of our day are do- ring or are likely to do; and that, con- sidering the result in view, is a very a- dquate and pallid statement of the case." AND THE APPEAL admits that as the N. and C. remarks that, if true, it is remarkable. The Afro-American of today is certainly vast in advance of his progenitors who were the first slaves; but THE APPEAL falls to see that the south deserves the credit of having produced the change. THE APPEAL claims that the Afro-American himself has been the chief factor in his own uplift and has to a great extent, wrought on his own salvation in the face of every discouragement which the South has thrown in his, way. He has learned to read in spite of the law of the South making it a felony to do so. Did the South uplift Frederick Douglass to his high place among American orators by bestowing upon him a fine education, or did he find it necessary to run away from the South in order to get a little uplift? Did the South establish and maintain schools for Afro-Americans, or were they established by the carpet-bag governments? Did the South originate the Emancipation Proclamation? AFRO-AMERICANS AND CUBANS. Speaking of the Cubans, a Northern newspaper remarks: "One-third of them are Negroes, resting under no social disability whatever, but they do not prove what is so often claimed in the United States, namely, that if the Negro were only treated as a man and a brother he would become a good citizen. On the contrary, they are as belligerent as the white Cubans and, like their white brethren, are happy only when they are wrapped up in red and yellow cloth and are riding horseback in a jade." It is not only "claimed," but has been proved in the United States that the Afro-American, if "treated as a man and brother" would become a good citizen; for thousands of them, by the confession of all classes of whid men are good citizens. Even Tillman says that only five per cent of them are criminals. No one has ever ventured to assert that any kind of treatment would make a good citizen of an Afro-American criminal or degenerate; but this at least may be asserted that the race has never produced an Arnold nor a Cologze. WORK FOR TILLMAN. Old man Tillman should at once come to Chicago and regulate things in this misguided city. That things are out of, joint, or rather that the white girl is in the joint, is shown by the following from the New York Sun: "About 200 white girls in Chicago are married to Chinamen. On an average of over one a month the Celestials of the Windy City continue to win white brides." The downfall of the white race before the yellow in the Japanese war seems to have inspired not only the Japs but the Chinese with new claims of equality. One result is the increase of marriages between white girls and Chinamen, which has been noticed in all our large cities during the last year." Moreover, there is, in Chicago an organization composed entirely of white women who are married to Afro-American men, and their husbands, which gives a big ball every year, and to which no one is invited except Manassahites. LOW RATES OFFERED Prof. Steiner, of Grinnell College, of Iowa, declared last night that the new arrival from Europe is met on the dock by enterprise political workers and offered citizenship papers at a special rate of $10 cash. The above statement was made in a lecture delivered in Washington city. It is another evidence of the great and growing contempt for the laws of the United States. There is no other nation upon the face of the earth in which the laws are so nearby a dead letter. The solid south takes special pleasure in evading or nullity, ing such laws as do not suit her taste, and everybody seems to regard it as a matter of small consequence. California proposes to do as she pleases about the Japanese, treaty or no treaty, war or peace, and pretty much everybody thinks that that makes no difference. The big corporations claim the right to do as they please. George Grenfell, an Englishman who died recently, was one of the most successful of the explorers of the Congo country, of which he was a resident for twenty years. He brought to light the dwarf tribes of the middle Congo and explored and mapped the river for 900 miles, and his maps are the best in existence. Grenfell never wrote a book, but his reports of his many discoveries were published at length in the geographical periodicals. Years ago he married a bright young Negro woman who had been well educated at the mission school at Accrna, on the Atlantic coast far north of the Congo. She accompanied him on many of his geographical expeditions and has been referred to by those who know her as a competent and faithful helpmeet. When Stanley was last in this country he told of "Grenfell's two beautiful children." BECOMING REFRACTORY. Paris... the imminence of a formidable native uprising in Morocco and Algeria is growing. The French military authorities in Algeria are in a state of apprehension. The commander of the troops in the district of Aln-Setra has canned to the minister of war saying that the preparations among the Moors for a holy war are proceeding energetically." The foregoing is one of numerous indications that the marauding nations of Europe, which call themselves civilized and Christian are every day finding the peoples whom they are endowing to enslave more refractory and unmanageable, a result which is in strict accordance with the eternal fitness of things. The title of "holy" exactly, not technically, describes the nature of the struggle. TILLMAN SNUBBED IN THE SOUTH. THE APPEAL has received a communication from a very reliable correspondent who resides in a well- known southern city which states that the windmill fighter was virtually snubbed upon his arrival at that point to deliver his old plate-matter harangue. No one met him at the depot, there was no committee of reception, and the Senator had to meander up town by himself, the best way he could. Moreover, his audience was small and bourgeois. A committee of citizens met and requested him to rour as gently as possible, as they had never had any trouble with the Afro-Americans and did not wish, him to excite any. The newspapers of the city gave him a mention, but not a thimbleful of taffy. SAYS MR. FLEMING. There is one Georgia man, ex- Congressman Fleming, who seems not to have "tint his reason a" thegather, like Tam O'Shanter. Mr. Fleming says: "We Georgians are in no danger of Negro domination. Our white majority is not less than 150,000, and is increasing with every decade. The preservation of our race purity is a matter in our own hands, and we will preserve it. We can give the Negro justice as a human being and as an American citizen without imperiling our civilization or our supremacy. It is just as necessary for us to encourage good Negroes as it is for us to punish bad ones. There are hundreds to be encouraged to every one to be punished." The Senate can ill afford to lose the Hon. Joseph W. Bailley. He is the peer of any man in that august body. He has grown tremendously in recent years. No one questions his transcendent ability. Those who know him best are firm in the conviction that he is an honest man—honest to the heart. They expect him to prove it. All hope so. The South has not produced Bailley's superior in two decades—Washington Herald. All of which may be very true, but facts are stubborn things. Bailley is, in the expressive language of Jeff Davis a "high-collared rooster," and the "hill-billies" have said he must go, and go he will. The Herald has not studied the situation down in Dixie, and is shamefully ignorant concerning it. The Chicago Journal says: "Last year nine hundred and thirty-nine deserted wives applied to the Cook county arent for relief. In 1902 there were five hundred and fifty-seven similar applications by deserted wives in this city and county. Thus, within three years, wife abandonment has increased nearly 100 per cent." The looseness of the marriage bond among Afro-Americans has been commented on in vigorous terms by our white brethren. But the above shows that their own race needs a little, if not much bracing up with respect to the matter. WHEN THE CIRCUS COMES. Indian Territory Editor Writes-of the Joy the News Brings. Lives there a man with souls so dead who never to himself hath said, with many crowding emotions of joy, "The circus is coming?" "The circus is coming!" What memories the old phrase routes-of summer morning long ago when you watched the show trail unload from your secure position on top of the pile of ties, of the street parade with the county people lining up the sidewalks, the share of many hands and the stately solemn tread of the elephants. And with what excitement you ate your dinner. Your father probably has denounced the circus as a tent-covered aggregation of sin, but in his vest pocket are tickets and small coins single in his right trousers pocket for the delectation of his boys and girls. He does not really care for the circus—that is, not until the familiar or of trumped gras has struck his nostrils and called to life things long buried or he feels the soft, inquisitive shout of the benevolent elephant feeling its cool way up his sleeves and sees the physically marvelous and beautiful in the show ring, and yields at last to a strange tumult of sensations which tells him that after all, human nature clings close to some of its most primitive pleasures. Then there comes over him vivid memories of circus days long ago and of the father, now long dead and happy in the state reserved for all good men, who took him, and he thinks to himself that if there be one thing that could make him desert the celestial harp concert it would be a circus day on earth with a lot of boys and girls to dring in its gaudy glories. LAST KING OF ANCIENT LINE: The Sultan of Brunei Is Now Eighty- Three Years of Age. Three Years of Age. The sultan of Brunei is eighty-three years of age—at least so he told me. And while he stoops as he hears, he catches a glare of another of a temporary invalid than of an old man. He seemed pleased when I told him that he might pass for sixy- and indeed he might; for his face is singularly free from wrinkles. His expression of benevolence suggests that the Lord Pope Leo XIII—his smile is engaging, albeit tinged with sadness. His house was ruling when the Roman empire had hardly ceased to crumble. His ancestors gave the law to a vast Eastern empire when Europe was under siege by the chiefs, and when, after centuries, Spanish and Portuguese found their way to the Spice Islands they laid propitating gifts at the feet of the Borneo sultan—as vassals, humbly begging the right to live within his dominions. Brunei is still the metropolis of native Borneo—indeed the name Borneo is but a corruption of Brunei—yet it shows the existence of this empire.

Clark, who brought charges against the proprietor of a chop sucy restaurant on Wabasha street, to recover damages for alleged refusal of the latter to serve him with that Oriental delicacy, who was awarded the sum of $1 as a remedy for his injured feelings. Of course he was not the proprietor, principle was maintained that distinctions on account of color will not go in St. Paul. He also received notice of an acknowledgment of error on part of the attorney general of Virginia, the ect of which he regards as the "Gim Crow" law of that state. Mr. McGhee last fall represented a woman in a series of trials on the charge of violating the law requiring Americans to ride for in separate car. This case was heard in a court of Appeals. Pope, was on a train passing from the District of Columbia into Virginia. The conductor requested her to go into the colored car, and she refused. The was placed in the arrest at Falls Creek, where she was before the local justice and fired $10. The case was appealed to the circuit court of the state and then to the Virginia supreme court, on the technical ground that while the law required Americans to ride in the white people's car, it prescribed no penalty. Mr. McGhee regards the action of the attorney general as a virtual acquittal and a nullification of the law requiring Americans to ride on separate cars.

White, is a hustler and no mistake. Last year he went to Lexington, Ky., and captured the next Triennial Conclave of the National Grand Master, the United Brothers of Friendship and the Masters of Meritorious Ten, for St. Paul in July, 1999, and though the meeting is two years off, he is at work as if it were to be held next July. He has secured assurance from Governor Johnson of state aid and from Mayor Smith of state aid, and has secured the old capital building for the meetings and the auditorium for a grand reception. The auditorium board, at a meeting last Tuesday evening, passed a resolution to effect. The state fair grounds will be secured or a grand outing day exhibited by the indications are that the largest gathering of Afro-Americans the Northwest has ever seen will be here on that occasion. The National Grand Master, W. A. Games, will visit the city in a short while to look the best time to meet himself that the best time the Grand Lodge had will be given at its next meeting in St. Paul. Elks' Theatre Party.

Most of the Nations Have an Excess of Male Population The Statistisches Jahrbuch, published by the German government, contains every year about fifty pages of comparative statistics of the world. This is a source to which writers on the comparative statistics of nations very often go for information. In the Jahrbuch for this year the statistics of population as to sex are collated. Some countries, as France and China, give only the total population without distinguishing the sexes, and they have to be left out of the calculation. In Europe the only countries in which the number of males is given as exceeding that of the females are Sweden, Bulgaria, and Greece, all of which are Balkan states, The Teutonic, Latin and Slav nations have a slight excess of females, which is often only a two thousand and rarely as much as 800,000. In every other continent, most of the nations have an excess of male population; thus in the Western world, Jamaica, Mexico and Venezuela alone have an excess of females. The United States, Canada, Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and other countries have an excess of males. So far as accurate statistics have been obtained in Africa, only the French possessions and the Gold Coast colony, have an excess of females, while in Egypt, the French possessions, the Transvaal, Orange River colony and Cape colony, males are the more numerous. In none of the Asiatic countries are females in excess of males, according to the statistics. In the Philippines the males are in excess of the females. He Had It From .the Mare's Own Mouth. The cleverest of lawyers occasionally find their match when engaged in their favorite occupation of breaking down an opponent's witness; and this frequently occurs in the case of "horse" individuals. The following wordy contest between a hostler and a counsel is one of the most amusing specimens of the hilarity. "Now, I ask you, sir, under what authority you are prepared to swear to the mare's age?" "Under what authority?" said the hostler, interrogatively. "You are to reply and not repeat the question put to you." "I don't consider a man's bound to answer as question afore he's time to turn it in his mind." "Nothing can be more simple, sir, than the question put, and I repeat it. Under what authority? do you swear to the mare's age?" "The best authority," said the witness, grumfi. "Then why such an evasion? Why not state at once?" "Well, then, if you must have, I will," he said, unhandered the counsel, interrupting the witness. "Well, if you must and will have it," rejoined the hostier, with imperturbable gravity, "why, then, I had it myself from the mare's own mouth." MUD KEEPS FROGS ALIVE. Survive in Drought of 118 Days by Burrowing Deep. A naturalist of the government describes the effects of a drought of 118 days' duration which prevailed in the Delaware valley some years ago with reference to the manner in which frogs and mud minnows managed to survive. While the mummified remains of ordinary minnows and aquatic insects were scattered in the parched mud of dried-up pools, the mud minnows and the frogs buried themselves where the ground was still moist, although the surface above them was crusted hard, and apparently went to sleep. When taken out and placed in water they gradually revived and seemed none the worse for their experience. On the sudden termination of the drought at the end of October within a single day the mud minnows reappeared in their usual numbers and the frogs were seen dezing on the banks of the half-filled brooks and leaping into the streams as unconcernedly as if nothing unusual had occurred. Why the Lecture Ended. A certain professor was giving his pupils a lecture on "Scotland and the Scots." "These hardy men," he said, "think nothing of swimming across the Tay three times every morning before breakfast." Suddenly a loud bust of laughter came from the center of the hall, and the professor, amazed at the idea of anyone daring to interrupt him in the middle of his lecture, angrily asked the offender what he meant by such conduct.

Th the Jahrbuch for this year the statisttes of population as to sex are collated. Some countries, as France and China, give only the total popula- tion without distinguishing the sexes, and they have to be left out of the eat: culation. In Europe the only countries in which the number of males is given as exceeding that of the females are Servia, Roumania, Bulgaria and Greece, all of which are Balkan states. ‘The ‘Péittonic, Latin and Slay nations have a slight ‘excess of females, which 4s often only a few thousand and rare: Ty as much a3 800,000. In every other continont, most of the nations have. an. excess of male population; thus in the Western worl, Jamaica, Mexico and Venezuela alone have an‘excess of feinales: “The Unt ted States, Canada; Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay’ ané other countries have-an excess of males. So far as accurate statistics have been obtained in Africa, only the French possessions and the Gold Coast colony, have an excess of fe males, while in Egypt, the French pos. sessions, thé Transvaal, Orange River colony and Cape colony, males are the more numerous. Tn noné of the Asiatte countries are fomales'th excess of males, according to the statistics. In the Philippines the males are in excess of the females, THE BEST AUTHORITY. He Had It From .the Mare's Own Mouth, ‘The cleverest of lawyers oceasionat- ly find their match when engaged in their favorite occupation of breaking down an opponent’s witness; and this frequenty occurs in the ease of “horsy" individuals. ‘Phe following wordy contest be- tween a hostler and a counsel is one ‘of the most amusing specimens of the kind: “Now, I ask you, sir, under what au- thority, you are prepared to swear to the mare's aze?" “Ungler what authority?” said the hostler, interrogatively, “You ate to revly and not repeat the question:put to you." “1 don't consider a min’s bound to answer asmiestion azore he's time to turn it in his mind” “Nothing ean be mdre simple, str, than the question put, and T repeat it. ‘Under what authority do you swear to the animal's age?” “The best authority,” said the wit- ness, svuly. “Then why such an evasion? Why not state at once?” “Well, then, if you must have it—": “Must! Twill have it!” thundered the counsel, interrupting the witness. “Well, if you must and will have It," rejoined the hostler, with imperturba- die gravity, “why, then, I had it myself from the mare’s own mouth.” MUD KEEPS FROGS ALIVE. Survive in Drouth of 118 Days by Bur- rowing Deep. ‘A naturalist of the government de- seribes the effects of a drouth of 118 days’ duration which prevailed tn the Delaware valley-rome years ago with feference to the msnnor in which frogs ‘and mud minnows managed to survive. While the uuummified remains of oF- inary minnows and aquatic Insects were sexttered ‘in the parched mud of Arledup pools, the mud minnows and the frogs buried themselves where the ground was still moist, although the surface above them was erusted hard, ‘and apparently went to sleep. When taken ont and placed in water they gradually revived and seemed none the worse for their experience.

Travels in a Peculiar Wagon That Can Run Sawmills and Churns. Run Sawmills and Churns. His name is Barnes. Until recently he was a mechanic. Now he is a traveling salesman of distinctly novel variety. He lives in the prairie section of the Middle West and when gasoline engines began to approach their present practicability decided that they were bound to replace windmills for farm purposes. In this belief he secured an agency for the one he considered best, procured a sample and set it up on an ordinary farm wagon from which he removed the pole. By a few simple connections he arranged his wagon to steer from inside the body. One shaft with some sprocket wheels and chain made all the mechanism necessary in order for the engine to drive his combination at the rate of six miles an hour. He carries a pump jack and a small assortment of small pulleys so arranged as to be capable of attachments to churns, washing machines and the like. His outfit attracts attention and makes talk, all of which has advertising value, while when he pulls into a farmer's yard he can show his prospective customer just what the machine will do. As a result he sells more engines than all other agencies in his territory, and as he carries his office in his pocket his territory is limited only by his speed. PRECURSOR OF THE EAGLE. Rattlesnake Once the Emblem of the Fairy Forest, Outside of Amuria Fighting Colonies of America Everybody recognizes the American eagle as the emblem of the United States, but not everybody knows that before the eagle was adopted the popular symbol of the young nation was a rattlesnake. Early in the revolutionary war flags used to be carried by the colonists which bore a rattlesnake with this motto: "Don't tread on me." Those who adopted this symbol believed that the reptile was specially fitting as an emblem of the national character. The rattlesnake does not willingly attack man but when hard driven it becomes vicious; nevertheless, it always gives fair warning of its presence and intention. The poets of the day said that the bright eyes of the snake, free from lids, represented ceaseless vigilance. In course of time, however, the humble snake became too insignificant as a national emblem and a more impressive symbol was desired and the inspiring and expanding colonists lifted their eyes from the creatures of the earth to the heavens and chose the eagle as best suited to their needs. The eagle means vigilance and activity and speaks of lofty heights, of endurance and fierce courage and of protection to home and young ones. LOCATED A COLONY OF BEARS. British Columbia Ranchman to Hunt by the Wholesale. Horace Knight, a pioneer rancher of Sutherland Creek, near Grand Forks, B. C., has just returned from a week's trip through the mountains lying between Sutherland Creek and Christina Lake, where he went to locate the haunts that are reported to abound in that region. "I have located the haunts of a great number of bears and am making arrangements to go bear hunting for the next month," said Mr. Knight. "I will start in a few days. From what I saw I am satisfied that within a radius of fifteen miles between Sutherland Creek and Fife station there must be at least 200 bears. As there will be good moonlight very shortly now I am anxious to take advantage of it. It will be the last moon that the bears will see until the spring and the best time to hunt them. I will not have any one with me. I prefer hunting game alone. "A good bearskin is worth $50, and I expect to clear up from $300 to $500 on my trip." To Build Rolling Stock in India. One of the main schemes of the Railway board is to have rolling stock built in part in India, which will give manufacturing firms in this country an opportunity for tenders for the construction of wagon frames and bodies. The experiment will also be extended to state lines, tenders being received up to 25 per cent of the total number of wagons sanctioned for construction yearly, while the axles, wheels, &c. will be obtained by each railway administration on indent from home and be supplied to contracting firms. From what the boards have seen of the big workshops on the lines they have traversed they feel satisfied that rolling stock of the best quality could be turned out in India, although the steel would have to be imported. The wagon building industry would make rapid progress in meeting orders which the board guarantee. Explained. Brown—Your friend Thompson is dead. Poet—Impossible!

Some remarkable coincidences are recorded in the case of two men, William Connally and Patrick Cantwell, who were drowned a short time ago by the upsetting of a "float" on the Grand canal, near Tullamore, England. The two men were born on the same day thirty-six years ago; they were baptized in the same water; they were drowned in the Grand canal, and they have been buried together.

UP- TO-DATE IN EVERY REPECT, HAVE ENCOURAGEMENT FOR 'RASTUS. Vermont Story of Bishop Hall and a Negro Wanted to Join Church. At a recent dinner which was attended by a number of clergymen, President Buckham of the University of Vermont told the following of Bishop Hall of the Episcopal diocese of Vermont, in response to some good natured chaff about the liberal views of the Congregational church and the ease with which almost anybody could join it. He said he had heard of a negro who had many times applied for membership in St. Paul's church at Burlington, but had not been able to satisfy the bishop that his state of mind entitled him to admission. The negro had been advised to pray that his spiritual condition might improve. After doing so he made a new application. The bishop said to him: "Well, Erastus, have you prayed as I told you to?" "Yas, indeede, suh—I done prayed an' I done tole de Lawd I wants jine St. Paul's chuch an' de Lawd he say to me: "Good luck, Rastus; I been tryin' jine dat chuch' to twenty years mahse'f." "OH, SAVE MY CANARY BIRD." Appeals of a Frantic Woman While the House Blazed. Upper Sherman street, Syracuse, experienced a little excitement recently. The neighborhood for blocks around watched the firemen battle for over an hour in subduing a blaze that completely gutted the interior of the houses 413 and 415, says the Syracuse Standard. The first blaze started from some unknown cause in 415, and an alarm was turned in from-box 461. When the apparatus arrived both houses were filled with smoke and the fire was eating its way up through the partitions that divided them. Assistant Chief Walsh, who was first on the scene, immediately got a couple of streams going. "Mr. Fireman, save my mother's picture," cried one woman. Another yelled: "Oh, save my canary bird." The bird was handed out of the window a few minutes later by Assistant Chief Shattuck and lay dead on the bottom of the cage. The picture was still among the missing articles when the firemen quit. Lace Shoes for Evening Wear. Lovely woman must march forth now it: shoes of Irish lace, says fashion's decree. At least she must wear them with evening dress, and their closest friends, which means the stockings, must be silk, insert with lace of the same costly sort. To this no woman objects, if she "has the price;" so short, fat feet and those extra long are adapting themselves to the tyranny of fashion. Some of the lace shoes, which are a revelation of what can be effected in this line, have bodies of gold or silver cloth, which is visible through the peek-o-boo pattern and glistens when the ween swings her toes shoes. Tiny bows of gold or silver ribbon form a finish, the heels being covered with tissue to correspond. Rain Doubles the Mail. The mail is affected by the weather, according to a postal official, and women, he says, are largely to blame for overworking employees on certain days in the year. Immediately after a spell of bad weather or even one rainy day the mail will be practically double, and then men will have to work overtime to handle it. In accounting for this state of affairs, he says that women stay at home when it rains and answer their correspondence. This duty is pretty generally put off when the weather is pleasant for more congenial occupations, but if the weather prevents their going out then they settle themselves to a day at their desks. Dr. Emil Reich, the well known student of women, said at a dinner during his last American visit: "It was a young lady of Baltimore who sat one afternoon reading a novel when a maid came and said: "Mr. Blankley is in the drawing room, miss." "A look of annoyance clouded the young lady's innocent blue eyes, and she said hurriedly, as she rose: "Horrors, and my hair isn't waved. Tell him he'll have to wait a little as I'm in the kitchen helping mother." Being a Woman. "The typewriter girl we have now," said Merchant, "can rattle things off the machine as fast as a fellow can talk." "Do you mean to say she can take down remarks as fast as any one can make them?" "I said as fast as any fellow can talk. She can't do it as fast as she can talk." WIT OF A POET. Lowell Knew Why the Fiddler Put a Handkerchief Under His Chin. The late Charles Hodson, chief clerk of the American embassy in London served under eight American ministers under Lowell, Welsh, Bayard, Hey, and so down. Mr. Hodson," said a New York importer, "became an intimate friend of Lowell's during the poet's incumbency. He had all of Lowell's books with autograph inscriptions, and he would narrate many stories of Lowell's quick wit. "At a dinner I once heard him say that Lowell was traveling on a Mediterranean steamer when a shabby old musician took out a fiddle in the evening after dinner and prepared to make a few pennies by playing a tune or two. "A little American girl stood beside Mr. Lowell watching the musician. She said: "Why does he put a handkerchief under his chin like that when he plays? Is he afraid of rolling his collar?" "No, my dear," said Mr. Lowell. "He is afraid of soiling his violin." SHAROOD'S REZ $5.00 SHOE THE IDEAL COMFORT SHOE A CALL EYE DEFECTS A Eye defects are few—symptoms can be but two defects.
