Elevated Newspaper Location.

A correspondent of the New York
Evening Post, writing from Pixies
Peak, thus describes the enterprising
venture of a newspaper man who has
chosen not u~nwisely a unique field for
a local paper:
"There is something else new on the
peak-a printing Office. The idea of
issuing a semi-daily paper at the
height Of IA. 40 feet in the air is en-
tireiy original, but 1t Is succeeding.
Thomas B. Wilson, a Kansas man, is
the editor and publisher. The paper
is printed on a iobpress, andis small,
with eight pages, largely covered with
pictures and descriptions of the seem
cry in this Switzerland OF America A
morning and an evening edition are
printed, two pages being given to the
events OF the day on the peak. the
principal items being the arrival of
excursionists. AS the cog-wheel road
brings up its passengers each ones
name is obtained, and the little press
is, by the time the party has properly
admired the peak. ready to print The
inside pages of the paper, in which
are given the names ofali the arrivals.
OF ours it would be a h~ard-hearted
excursionist who would notpay a dime
for a copy OF such a souvenir, indub-
liable evidence of having been so far
above the level OF most humanity. The
sales have been beyond all expecta-
lions, running from SIS to es5 n day,
and the ingenious Publisher is getting
rich

81 recall the first timeI ever heard
of Champ Clark. He had made a
stump speech in one of the northern
tier of counties, and a friend of mine.
a Republican, like myself, heard him.
Clark then a a very young man, and
never a springtime gave promise, of a
more bounteous autumn. He fairly
carried us of our feet.
Some years ago a friend of mine
told me of a marvellous speech he had
heard Webster Davis deliver the day
before. He was extravagant in his
praise, saving that Davis was the
greatest orator living. l am always
suspicious of your orator, your sky
scraper, your word-monger, your de-
claimer. He is apt to shoot over your
head. When ] was a boy Ole Bull
made a tour OF this country, giving
concerts One day a plain Missouri
farmer paid . dollar to hear him, and
when the show was nearly over, and
Bull was in the middle of a solo that
would have enchanted all Germany,
our old granger blurted out: I guess
the Dutchman is a good fiddler, but
why the hell don't he quit his tuning
and give US some mnsic?' I feared
that Webster Davis was too much
given to tuning I determined to
hear him. I did hear and / found that
while he could tune with the best of
them, he could give us music with the
best of them.

turned over the whole of the palmar sur
face of the thumb and the second sec
ton of the index finger. After further
interval of sixteen days sensation seemed
to be creeping slowly along the first fin-
ger and to be present over the whole of
the pafmar area supplied by the median
nerve and extending down as far as the
web of the fingers and a short distance
along the middle finger. The muscles
presented evidences of gradual develop
ment and the general nutrition OF the
hand improved. Slight power OF grasp
and some power of fexion of the wrist
returned, with slight power OF bending
the thumb and fingers. Sensation was
present all over the thumb and index I'm
ger and In the second finger up to the
first section on the palmar surface; also
In the third finger, though less distinct.
In the course Of several weeks more
sharp shooting pains began to be felt In
the distribution of the ulnar nerve, and
the fexor muscle of the forearm began to
react the gaivanism. improvements thus
continued, when the patient was lost 30
observation, and then was not seen again
until after the lapse of six years. The
man had continued the use Of Ealvanism
for a time and did not resume his work
until more than year after his accident.
During the subsequent five years he had
not missed days employment attending
to all his duties from wheeling we'll la
cen barrow to using a scythe. On exam
nation the right arm was found scarcely
smaller than the left, and power had re-
turned to all of the muscles except the
abductor of the thumb. Sensibility had
also been restored, and the electric reac-
tons were normal except In the muscle
named.

WAS GREAT FISHING ONCE
STURGEON is RARELY SEEN IN THE
PORTLAND MARKETS
II the Columbia Were RestOcI1ed,
Under Proper Restrictions, the
Industry Might Thrive.

The sturgeon, once SO common, is Il fish
now rarely seen in the Portland markets,
says the Oregonian. Although highly
esteemed in some countries and finding
a ready sale in the cities of the east, eA~
pecially in a smoked condition it ueVsf
was much of favorIte here, being chief
ly used by cheap hotels ana restaurants,
where it was served up under the name
of ''sea bass" or "hllet of sole"
A few years since parties came here and
engaged in the business of shipping stur-
geon east, and the fishermen went into
the business of catching them wholesale,
and soon the Columbia was strung with
sturgeon lines as numerous as the streets
of Portland are with electric wires, and
Books by the ton were set for the doomed
sturgeon. Fish Commissioner James
Crawford has stated that over 100000
pounds of sturgeon was shipped from the
Columbia river in 1892, and also that over
5000 pounds of caviare, sturgeon eggs,
was shipped the same year.
The number of sturgeon caught during
the winter and spring of 1928 in the Co
lumbia was over 10000, more than 20 per
cent Of which were small fish. 1t is un-
necessary to say that but few have been
shipped since, but as 1t was not practic-
able to catch them all at once, there are
any find their way to this market.
Although there is no difficulty in pro-
curing sturgeon eggs, and the method of
propagating them artifcally is well un-
derstood, no steps so far have been taken
toward restocking the Columbia.
If the river were restocked and the fish
ing placed under some proper restrictions,
1t might again become a source of great
profit to the fishermen. 1t might be a
work of some difficulty to strip a female
sturgeon of her eggs, but it would not be
necessary to handle many Of them for
the full-grown Ash yield on an average of
10 gallons, which at 1SS,009 eggs to the
gallon, makes 1,68O,OOO eggs to the fish
A dozen or two fish would yield eggs
enough to stock any river.
Just what legislation in regard to fish
is coming before the legislation is not
known, but fishermen should not forget
to have something done to protect the
steelhead salmon and the sturgeon, which
are now in course of being exterminated
at a rapid rate.

WALKING WHEELS THE LATEST,
Makes LOcOmOtiOn Speedy, and Per
mits a Perfectly Erect Attitude.

Among the patents just issued from Wash
ingtn is walking or skating cycle, designed
by resident of Kansas City, who claims that
it can be used with much less exertion than
a bicycle or tricycle. and with less exertion one
can travel several times as fast as when walk
ing. The vehicle, moreover, can be mRnufac-
tured and sold much cheaper than bicycle,
and it possesses great advantage over the lat
ter in that the rider maintains q perfectly
erect and healthful position, and uses practl-
cally the same muscles as are employed in
walking, Two Of these cycles comprise set,
and are precisely alike in construction, except
that is 70 embrace and support the right
leg Of the rider. The wheels are preferably Of
the pneumatic type, and from two to two and
one-half feet In diameter. When mounted the
body will be perfectly erect with the arms
hanging straight down and grasping the han
dies. To propel the cycle. 1t is only necessary
to alternately advance and withdraw or swing
back and forth, ones feet, which, OF course,
causes the wheels to rotate continuously In the
direction desired, at speed proportionate to
the power applied. Each cycle is provided
with a brake OF suitable construction. No par
ticular effort is necessary in mounting or dis
mounting the CYCLE and It is obvious that It
can be placed upon the market at a compare
lively low figure Furthermore, It Will not be
clumsy and awkward to handle nor take up
half as much room an ordinary bicycle. It
also possesses many other desirable features,
one Of which is that 1t can so sasllR and con-
veniently be taken upstairs. 81,
