SUPPOSE WE STAY CAT HOME p

The Portland Daily News, not to
DO outdoue by its neighbors, wants
Southwestern Idaho annexed to Orc
gon. 1t says:
Southwestern Idaho is really much
more identified with Oregon than
Washington, and if there is to be q
general parceling up of that magnif-
cent Territory, our State should come
in for her share, We do not need it,
it is true, but we believe the inhabi.
tants themselves would prefer Oregon
to Nevada. The traditions, customs,
and habits of the people, the oharac.
ter of the soil, and the general topog-
raphy of the country are all more OF
less allied with Oregon, of which il
once formed part.
Washington wants the Panhandle
Montana the Occur d'Alene, Nevada
Southern Idaho, and Oregon South.
western Idaho. Suppose we Idahoans
make up our minds to remain ir
Idaho? We are prosperous and grow
Ing, why change at all p?

Celebration was long quite unintelligi-
BILE, that of creatures which are very
conspicuous and often so gaudily col
ored as to attract attention; but it is
now found that many groups of species
thus colored have totally different kind
of protection in being endowed with
such an offensive odor and taste as to be
inedible. Whole families of butterflies,
moths, beetles and other insects are now
known by actual experiment to be SO
protected, and those in every case pos
sess conspicuous colors, or at all events
are entirely wanting in those protective
hues which characterize most creatures
which serve as food to others.
AS illustrations of these forms of use
full characters | may mention the glow
worm and irefiies, which belong to in
edible groups, but being nocturnal and
soft bodied, would be liable to be seized
and injured, if not devoured, without
the warning light which tells all insect
eating creatures (after one experienced
that they are UNBEATABLE. This interpre-
tation of the use of the light was sug-
gested by Mr.. Belt and has been adopted
by Mr. Darwin.-A. r. Wallace III

In some interesting experiments made
by an English oculist on the relative
values of various forms of lamp shades
an important result was arrived at. The
method pursued by him was to measure
the brightness Of white paper lying on a
table over which the scource of artificial
light was suspended at given distance
by means of a Weber photometer. Thus
the fact was confirmed that the general
effect Of a shade is to increase very
greatly the illumination Immediately
under the light, while not modifying it
notably at an angular distance greater
than forty-five degrees from this re-
gion.
Taking as a measure of the value OF
the illumination in this case the number
of lines which can be read from a news
paper in minute, and as a unit OF
illumination that of normal candle al
a perpendicular distance of a meter from
the paper, ii is found that the best
illumination is not less than fifty sucl
units, but even a fifth of this illumina
ton is very rarely secured, except i'm
mediately under lamp provided with {
good shade. Scientific Journal.

KNOCKED DOWN THE PRINCE.

\ writer in the New York Evening
Post says: In the early part of the pres
ent century William Lee, son of Gideon
Lee, who, though a native of Boston,
was mayor of New York in 1893, accom-
panied his sister to Halifax for a stay of
some weeks. At this time the duke of
Clarence (afterward William lN) was in
command of royal frigate then cruising
in North American waters. On one oc-
casion, while Mr.. Lee and his sister were
walking through the town, they met the
duke, who, having drowned his proverbi-
ally minute sense of decorum in proven
bially deep potations, expressed his adj
miration of Miss Lees beauty in terms
more evidently sincere than strictly con-
ventional, and was Immediately knocked
down by her brother. The fracas was
instantly stopped by the Mortified COM
panions of the future sailor king, and it
went no further. Our family tradition is
silent as to the exact date of this occur
renee, but from certain particulars infer
that it was most probably the summer of
1870 or 1921. Miss Lee afterward mar
