The celebration Of the Fourth, at

of the Modern Woodmen Of American,
was most enjoyable and successful
event. Several hundred people assem-
bied under the trees and gave themselves
up to a day Of patriotic rejoicings. A
choir Of young ladies and young men
discoursed patriotic and fraternal mu-

excellent essay on the Silent Forces, y
II. A. Grifiths spoke at length and
impressiyely on our duties as citizens
and patriots, and R. H. Davis talked a
bit. Then a long table was bOuntiful-
ly spread with substantial delicacies,
that is good things to eat; the young
men and young ladies strolled about
under the trees; the little folks ate Ice
cream, drank lemonade and burnt fire
crackers and the musicians started to
play and the dance went on. Every.
body had a good time, and came home

what he has actually accomplished.
From the little that can be CLEANED,
however, we are not very sanguine that
anything new has been added to what
is already known Of spiritualism.
In his spirituaIistic experiments,
Prof. Hyslop has been associated with
some of the most distinguished psy-
biologists and alienists, men who have
become well known through the value
OF their contributions to mental science.
For this reason we have a right to
expect something more than the va
gueness and ambiguity which has ever
been characteristic of spiritualism,
something which win at least prove
amenable to the ordinery laws Of evil
dence, and afford us that sensible proof
of Immortality, the desire for which is
coeval with the existence of the human
race. Although the publication Of the
results of his examination into spirit
utllsm may not be accompanied by
"such q wave of excitement as the
world has never seen before" we trust
Prof. Hyslop will keep his promise, and
If he presents us with results in the
way of spirit communication. we hope
they will be marked by that dignity
and practical utility which have been
so invariably and conspicuously want
ting In all previous communications. =

Working Smoothly.

1t will be noticed that the Cuban in
surgents are all accepting the bonus
which has been offered by the Ameri-
cans, and are surrendering their arms.
The marplots in Cuba attempted to in
duce them to hang on to their arms
and refuse the American money. The
mallgnants in the United States were
praying that the Cubaus would do this,
so as to put obstacles in the way of the
government. Both elements have
met the defeat which they deserved
The path of the Americans in Cuba is
proving to be smoother than many per-
sons a few months ago thought it
would be. The difficulties in the way
of Cuban reconstruction and rehabili-

closeted with polit icians. After the
conference was over he told the report
ers that the meeting had no political

Company slaughter house to slaughter
some beeves. lie had placed the gun
with which to shoot the animals on thu
framing of the corral and, it seems, that
by swinging his coat was endeaYoring
to attract an animals attention towards
himself so as to get a better shot.
Somehow the coat struck the gun aud
knocked it down, the hammer striking
large wooden block upon which Bud
stood as Il fell The gun, Win-
chester rifle, was discharged and
the ball struck Buds leg just above
the knee, ranged upwards on the inside
of the leg, near the skin, and struck the
pubic bone, then glanced back follow
ing the large muscle and wound
around lodging just beneath the skin
near the base of the backbone. The
entire length Of the wound is about
two feet. The impact of the ball
against the bones battered it all out of
shape. Drs. Isham and Wright dress
ed the wound and extracted the ball
aud now have charge of the patient
Bud is getting along just as well as
could possibly be expected considering

From Sylvan Valley News, Breyrad.
N. G. 1t may be a question whether
the editor of a newspaper has the right
to publicly recommend rny of the vari-
Gus proprietary medicines which flood
the market, yet as preventive of suf-
fering we feelit duty to say good
word for Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy. We have
known and used this medicine in our
family for 20 years and have always
found it reliable. In many cases a
dose of this remedy would saHe hours
of suffering while aphysiciLR is await
ed. We do not believe in depending
implicitly on yna medicine for cure,
but we do believe that if bottle of
Chamberlain's Diarrhoea Remedy
were kept on hand and administered at
the inception of an attack much suffer
ing might be avoided and in vary many
cases the presence of physician would
not be required. A. least this has been
our experience during the past twenty

There having been considerable

in the matter of collecting fees, espec,
tally for administering oaths to bills
against the county. Clerk Meek sub
rHittod the matter to the attorney gen
eral and received the following reply:
Boise, Idaho, July 5, 1899.
Mr.. Edgar Meek,
Caldwell, Idaho.
Dear Sir-Replying to your letter of
June Goth with regard to charge for adj
ministering oath to bills against the
county, have to say that the fee
should be Is cents for "taking affidavit
including jurat" and that it is your
duty to make this charge and to col
lect the same. The situation under
the salary law is quite different than
heretofore. All OF the fees belong to
the county. They are in no respect
the property of the officer and he can
not waive them. He must make the
charge and collect it as well.
Very truly yours,

Attorney-General.

Where Women Are Ignored.

One of the marks of woman's sub iecti1n which has not yet been at tackled by the suffrage societies is the absence of her name from the City Directory. Unless she happens to be 3 widow or engaged in some active busi- ness pursuit she has no place in that book of universal reference.
 Such women as pr. Mary Putnam Jacobi and Mrs. Lillie Devereau Blake are recorded, and so are dozens of other women who are heads of vari- ous business enterprises, but women who have no occupation outside their own homes must be sought for in so- cial registers and society lists. Even women who hold responsible positions in business firms are ignored by the directory, though the name of every clerk in the city Is duly recorded. In the vast majority of cases the direc- tory women whose names are sprin- kled among the Johns, Thomases and Charleses are described simply as "wid.," which means that their hus bands are dead and that they have succeeded to the headship Of houses.

rrutt Culture and Bees.

The fruit grower who is able to ham, de bees without much trouble will find them not only profitable in them selves, but of great value to his or chard fruits. As a rule the blossoms of fruit trees are we'll feftilized by the various insects of the section, but in many eases the domestic bee has made orchards profitable that for years failed to set fruit blossoms in any quantity. Many bee cuIturists make practice Of setting the hives in the orchard, to the advantage of both bees and trees. The objection to this practice has been urged that bees sting fruit of various kinds, especial. ly grapes, pears aud plums. This is not so, for bees rarely, if ever, pune. ture fruit, although frequently found taking the juices from fruits previous, injured by birds CT in other ways. The best results from bees in the orchard are obtained when the trees are low. This will enable the bees to pollenize the blossoms all over the trees and will also make the gathering of the fruit easier. Try q hive of bees among the trees that have been shy bearers and note the results.

The fibre will be work ed into mating, and also made into packing to be used in warships be. tween the armor aud the body of tho vessel. The oil of the nut is to be pressed out and worked into palm oil aud soap. Finally, the milk of tht nut is to be distilled, after a fashion in use i'll India, where it produces 2 much-sought-atter liquor.

Selecting the Breeding Female.

While fully realizing the importance of the male farm stock breeding, due importance should be given to the SC. lection of the female in order to ob- tain the highest grade progeny. Short ness or ehubbiness of form in the fe- male should be carefully avoided, as such animals are not good breeders. Of course, the opposite extreme is just as objectionable, The animal should be clean cut, with a fine head, light jaw and long neck. The limbs should be delicate and of good length-that is, they should not be short and knotty nor yet long and thin. When the cow has horns avoid choosing for breeders those with short thick horns. It is difficult to describe the ideal animal, but the points are instinetiyely appar- cut to any close observer. In short, probably the best way to judge is to decline any female that has a maseul- inc look in any marked degree, for this may be safely taken as an indiea- ton that she will fall short of the mark, in some important respect, as breeder

Casting a Stntue.

Most persons think a bronze statue is solid. If this were so it would be im- possible to move most of the large ones, for the giant statue of Pan, ba George Barnard, which has just been cast in New York city, weighs four tons, and is only half an inch thick. The statue is thirteen feet long, 3 reclining figure, and the bronze east jng, which Is entire. is the largest ever made in this country. A sand mold, Weighing 27 tons, was made from the plester figure. On the large surfaces three or four tons of sand would be hammered solid. but in the intricacies of the fingers and the curly beard tiny pieces of mold were made, taking weeks at time, fitting together like a puzzle, When the entire plaster statue was covered with these molds they were removed and baked hard as stone, then built up together and the hollow Qlled with sand, which was tamped fn- tQ solidity. When the molds were taken of fine copy of Pan in sand appeared, but skilful hands went over the statue, Eaking off half an inch from the surface all over it. Then the mutilated sand statue was replaced inside the molds and the space between the core and the molds filled in with the melted bronze, which weighed four tons. This is the way bronze statues are made.

BELTS FOR THg THROAT.
4 Novel Stock Collar Which Is Now Be
 coming Quite Fad.

A HoFel Stock Collar Which 1s Now Be-
 coming Quite a Fad.
 The latest foundation for the popular stock collar is fitted with finely tenn pered steel spring, which clasps tho neck closely and holds the stock in place without any trouble. 1t does not bind the neckA as # IS very light and yields to each moYefnent, and, although 1t looks firm and snug, 1t does not choke.
 This light spring, tapping g little at the back somewhat like a key ring or bracelet, can be bought and covered at home, and can be recovered many times, as steel never wears out.
 A metal stock which does not require to be covered, but is intended as an article of jeWelry, is quite q fad now. These stocks or collars are very much like a dog collar or belt. They are made in great variety of form and pattern-plain jewelled, silver and gold. Some are arranged in medalli- ons, with circle of chains between and intended to be worn over some bright ribbon or chiffon stock, while others are of solid metal and fastened with buttons and eylets, with slides, hooks and eyes, regular belt buckles, or jewelry clasps of the old fashioned styles.
 These throat belts are made tomatch waist belts and can be had in any pat tern in sets to order
 Belt buckles, from being very tiny, have suddenly jumped to the opposite extreme, They cover the entire front part of the waist, extending around nearly under the arms in some cases, and are four or five inches broad. The same effect is carried out in the back.
