INFIDILITY and DEATH

The first intelligence OF terrible
tragedy enacted on a Kalispel valley farm
er nearly three weeks ago has just come
to public notice. During the past year
G. A. Thompson and l.. =. Byron have
lived neighbors in that portion Of the
world, and to all appearances were peace
FIJI and law abiding citizens. Byron was
a married man, and Thompson who wac
yet a single man, was always a welcome
guest at the Byron mansion. Byron
never had occasion to doubt his wife's
fidelity to him until during the holidays,
when he came into possession OF some
letters that had passed between his wife
and Thompson. These letters revealed
a plot between Mrs. Byron and Thompson
to kill Byron, thus giving the unfaithful
wife her cherished liberty.
Byron at his first opportunity killed
Thompson, concealing his body, but the
weight of his crime hung heavily upon
his uneasy soul, and after week of sui-
fering Byron blew his own brains out and
vent to join his neighbor in another
land. Before taking his own life Byron
wrote letter explaining his deed and all
the circumstances leading up to it. His
letter was the first knowledge of the
death of Thompson that had been given
to the world.
The coroner states that he found the
body OF Thompson by following the ante
mortem statement of Byron. Mrs. Byron
is still in the Kalispel valley, but is said
to be preparing to leave for her home in
the east.

Rome's Wonderful Boy Choir.

In the choir OF st. Peters in Rome there
is not female voice, and yet, SAYS re-
cent traveller in Italy, the mos difficult
oratorios and sacred music written are
rendered In such manner as to make
one think that Adeline PATHS high So
prano is leading. The choir is composed
Of sixty boys. They are trained for the
work from the time they get control OF
their vocal chords and some OF the best
singers are not over nine wears old. At
the age OF seventeen they are dropped
from the choir. To say that in that
famous edifce one hears the grandest
church music that the world has ever
known sounds commonplace, so far short
does il fall OF apt descript on. am some

profound student OF music all my life,

human voice was capable of such per

CULTIVATION OF HOPS.
Remarkable Produetiveness of the HoI
Lands OF the Pacific Coast.

Remarkable Productiveness of the Hop
Lands OF the Pacific Coast.
A recent monograph on the subject OF
Geographical Concentration in Ameri-
can Agriculture" written by John Hyde,
and read before the International Statis
teal institute, gives some curious facts
about the cultivation of hops in this coun-
try. In lSiJ the total production Of hops
in the United States was |, 1888 SOP pounds,
36.ll per cent OF which was produced in
New York, and 1923 per cent in NJ tssa
chusetts and New Hampshire. Forty
years later the production had increased
to 20 ,546,37S pounds, New York contribu-
ting Sl.4S per cent of the total. In 1890
the hop production OF the country was al
most revolutionized. New York still
contained 1903 per cent OF the total acre
aye devoted to hops. but her yield was
only AZ l6 per cent of the total produc-
ton. The explanation OF this phenom-
email change is the remarkable produc-
tiveness of the hop lands of the Pacific
coast states, the yield per ARE, according
to Mr.. Hyde. being nearly three times as
great as that of the hop lands Of the
state of New York. The next ten years
will produce still greater change. The
census of 1000 will probably show the
Pacific coast producing the major part OF
the hops consumed in the United States
The production must be enormous, for
no industry in this country is growing
more rapidly than the brewing of beer,
for which supply OF good hops is in
dspensable.

There Is an arm that never tires,
So gentle, yet 40 strong:
The arm on which our grief expires,
And signing turns TO song.
There IL q well that never falls:
When earthly springs are low,
The weary heart, In Raca's wales,
Hears the soft overflow.
There Is a light that never dies,
Clenr shining through the years:
For changeleSs love lights up our skies,
The rainbow gilds our tears.
There Is n song our soul may sing
When lying In the dust
A stricken bird with broken wing
It Is the song of trust.
There Ia n joy does not depart.
Whatever seeming Ill
May throw It's shadow on the heart
The joy Of His sweet will.
There Is Il rest, Sabbath rest,
Beyond the sin and care:
But he who leans on Jesus breast
Finds heaven Ia everywhere.
