On the Truckee River the Nevada

with hook and line, but over the line in
California man is free to fish. The Reno
Journal says the fool fish don't know
enough to stay on the safe side Of the

California. They are like the old miner

WRONG IDEA.
[Stockton Mail.
It seems that all but one of the New
York managers of theaters have had their
orchestras stop playing the "Star-Span-
gled Banner" at their houses of amuse-
lnent. A New York magazine which i'll
auired into the reason for this was
informed by some of the managers that
there was no demand for the song. Others
said the people got tired of it. Still others
declared that they stopped it because OF
the apathy shown by the audiences. We
do not think that the answers show any
lack of patriotism on the part OF New
Workers. The idea that the playing of
the national air at the theaters night after
night would stimulate patriotism was
founded upon wrong conception OF hu.
man character and endurance. We re-
member that some years ago band in
New Mexican city played LA Colon
drina,u charming Spanish song, every
time it appeared In public, which was
oneo week. 1t WAS enjoyed immensely
at first, but when week after week the
..Goloudrina'' was sandwiched into the
programme the people became mighty
tireI of il, and raised what is ex presSively
termed "howl.n There are times when
the .Star-Spangled Banner sounds in
spring, but it is demanding too much to
expect au audience to be enthusiastic
over it night alter night. There are bet
ter ways of intoxicating patriotism than
this.
INFLUENCE OF PURITANISM.
Los Angeles Times
There is a force in the expression such
as is not always fully appreciated, that
whatever is worth at all is worth doing
well.n Thoroughness, earnestness and
sincerity are qualities which give value
TO mems actions. The history of our
Puritan fathers shows US men who were
terribly in earnest In all the affairs of
life. Theirs was a life vastly removed
from our own. It was rigid, exacting,
uucompromising-ju the character that
was needed for the molding of new
nation. 1t has left its impress upon the
whole of American civilization.

BILE case of suicide and murder oc-
Cured here at 1915 o'clock yesterday
forenoon. of which Harry Kroose and
George jacob are the victims. Kroose
was the agent for the Harlem road
here, having filed the position for the
last twenty-three years. jacob was
his father in-law, and acted as assist
ant agent Kroose was about 43 years
of age and jacob g. Kroose killed
jacob by shooting him twice in the
self by firing a bullet into his own
head. The motive for the crime is a
mystery, as both were on the friendli-

The shooting occurred only a few
moments before a passenger train was
due. When the train arrived the con-
ductor and trainmen found the bodies,
both having died instantly.
Kroose shot jacob in the back of
the head as the latter was seated at
the desk writing. Kroose had been
discharged and the relief agent was
on the train that arrived shortly after
the tragedy occurred, to relieve him.
There is said to be no shortage in his
