A ranchcr living near Wamic, Or, on one of the blocks of The plateau north of the waupinitia plain. states that the adjacent streams-ROck creek, Gate creek and Three Mile creek-haye shown a gradual decline in the last ten years in the amount of their summer flow. This decline he attributes Co the trampling of the ground by sheep m the mountains SC the headwaters of these streams. He believes that within 90 years there will be no water iu the stream beds In the fall of the year.

 Professor Sims woodhead. speaking before the Society For the Study of Inebriety in England. came to these conclusions: He held most strongly that direct transmission of the taste for alcohol never occurred. Of course he accepted very fully the fact that certain nervous diseases and degenera- dons involving certain altered and weakened inhioitory power are trans' mitted from generation to generation. These. however. did not always as- tune the same form. the manifesta- ton of the effect often taking on very different characters in different gen erations
 But whatever character they assum' ed the result as regards alcohol was Inevitably the same. and until Gar morS evidence was brought forward than had yet been presented he should strongly maintain that what was 90 often spoken of as an inherited taste for alcohol was an inherited weakness and lessened self restraint affecting many other things besides drink and that a direct transmission of the taste for alcohol from parents to children la a constitution otherwise healthy did not occur. AS with tubercul D s, the disease was not transmitted, but only the weakly and unbalanced condition of the characterization Hospital.

When the tide comes ln. lt hlls a lot of shallow basins. and the water is pre- vented from flowing back into the sea by closing the gates. The atmosphere ls SO dry that the water evaporates rapidly and leaves a sediment of salt To an almost pure state, which Is scrap cd up. packed Into sacks and shipped to market Within the coast little further the percolation of sea water through the porous rocks Into pits and hollows has caused immense deposits of salt to accumulate.

CURRENT MISCELLANY.

It Is not easy to tell when an elephant has got toothache, but it is best to keep out of his way when you do know it A London surgeon who had been for many years in India says ho would sooner risk a railway accident thar meet an elephant with toothache.

 An elephant in B,ngal. India, became affected with toothachc but the keepers managed Co secure it while dentist drew a dccayed tooth-the cause of the trouble.

Grating Prereaa.

When a woman is created a peeress, it is usually for one or two reasons- either because her husband died before he could rcc,ivc the peerage intended for him or because she IS the untitled mother of a titled son.
 Naturally. therefore, the number of such peeresses is few and select. One of the best known Is Lady Bolsover, the Duke of Portland's stepmother. The way she obtained her title is somewhat curious and roundabout. She married as his second wife General Cayendish Bentinck. who. if be had lived long enough, would have inherited the duke dom of Portland He died before the title fell vacant. his wife remaining Mrs Cayendish Bentinck.
 When a few years later the dukedom descended Co his son. it was felt Co be an anomaly that the stepmother of a real live duke should be only plain "Mrs just as if her stepson was an ordinary commoner. so then and there she was created Baroness BolSover. a pevre,s in her own right.-Exchange

Cycle Road Record Lowered.

George F. Romans, winner OF the annual
twenty-five-mile road race of the Kings
County, N. Y, Wheelmen, held yesterday
on the Hampstead Baldwin course, broke
the record for the course. Romans covered
the distance in In. Pm. and 6s., beating
George r. Schofeld's record by I'm and 35s.
The course is a triangular one and in
cludes the Hampstead and Baldwin's mac
adamized roads. The men started out well
and in spite OF the wind made great time.
Schofield had the misfortune to puncture
his rear tire about ten minutes after the
start and was forced to withdraw.
On the twenty-second mile S. B. Chap
man had a bad fall and was out of the race.
He had been well up in the bunch from
the start and had several times made the
pace. Many of the experts had thought him
a possible winner, and at least believe that
the time would have been further lowered
had he finished.
The last part of the race was a bitter
contest between the winner and H. R.
Brown, jr. Their finish was sensational. as
Homans was less than length ahead.
Both men broke Schofield's record.
