Badly Broken Leg.

On last Sunday evening Mr. Mahona,
who lives mile below New Plymouth,
but was up to the timber near Reeds
mill getting some derrick poles.
was brought into Emmett
in bed in spring wagon, having been
hurt by falling tree which he had cut.
His purpose was to go on down to his
home and have DR.. Hunt 60 down and
attend to his leg which he knew was
broken, and very badly too, but the doc
er, when he was seen, and Mr. Mahona
was taken TO the Payette Valley house
and when he had been as well provided
for as it was possible to do the Dr. pre-
pared to fix him up, but did not ''seJ y
the limb until morning as he did not
think he could do justice to the case at
night, as upon examination he found
that both the Tibia and Fibula Qhe bones
Of the lower part of the leg) had been
broken Just below the knee Of the right
leg, and that both bones we're broken at
another place six inches lower down,
making double compound fracture of
the Tibia and Fibula. He made proper
casing and in the morning set the limb,
placing it in plaster paris, and the pa
tient Is as comfortable as man could be
under such circumstances. The Dr. says
that he can save the leg if he can keep
down blood poison, but it is badly
crushed.
MIR. Mahona had cut a tne so that il
fell without breaking entirely off at the
stump being also wedged between two
other trees in falling, SO that it was it
the shape Of spring poIe with the enc
fastened at the stump and he started tt
trim the limbs OIL OF the tree with th'
understanding that they would do tina
before cutting the tree loose from tn
stump, but just when he had gotten be

log on the ground, the other man Gu
the tree loose at the stump and
!. sprung back in such
way as to strike his leg at the plac

Messrs. Cobban, and Smith Soule
started to the "uig trees up the Payctte
Monday morning, having been down for
several days and been to Boise attending
to business IN connection with their
work. Mr. Cobban said, while talking
with We editor that the Payette timber
was the best in quality and the greatest
in extent of any timber now standing,
and that we would not see it all cut in
our time. He said that it was much bet
ter timber than the white pine of north
Idaho, all of which was surprise to
him as he had not expected to find eth
er the quality or quantity that actually
could form some idea Of the extent OF
the timber ON the Payette by. taking
note of the fact that the Reed mill had
been cutting timber for SIX or seven
years, and was a good small plant, aud
yet they had only cut very little more
than section, and not cut more thar
two thirds OF the timber from that. lie
said he had seen no rotten timber in al
of that country that is standing tim

and Walrus Islands Not What It Used to Be.

The secretary of the treasury has been advised that during the ensuing month of February the farming out of the seal hunting on the Commander and Walrus islands, in the Arctic sea, will take place at Khabarovsk. in East Siberia. Russia, in which enterprise many English companies are said to be interested. It is doubtful. it is said, whether the proposed disposition of this crown property will bring the price it formerly did, in view of the enormous destruction of seal life dur ing the past ten years, which has great ly decreased the catch.
 The governor of East Siberia has reported that in 1896 the number of seals caught on the Commander is- lands was 54.591; in 1892, only 3O.O0O were caught; in 1893 the total was 25.O00; in 1898 the number was 2925. and last year only about 1.C00 skins were secured.
 The situation is said to be the same as regards the catch on Walrus is- land. At the beginning of the nineties the yearly catch was 4.00O. It is now only about 300. The treasury officials believe the time is fast approaching when the fur seal will be almost ex- tinct in the region referred to.

URGES A FLOATING FAIR.
by Chief of statisties Bureau 0. P. AuAtiA.

O. P. Austin, chief of the treasury bureau of statistics, the other day de. ivered a short address before the na. tional board of trade in advocacy of a project he outlined for an around-the. world floating exposition. He sug- gested that half dozen vessels be loaded with properly selected and ad. yantageously displayed samples oi American merchandise and sent from port to port all over the world. By this Mir. Austin thought merchants of al parts of the world would be given bet ter acquaintance with American prod. ucts and American business methods while at the same time representatives of American interests accompanying the exhibits would acquire benefi cial knowledge of foreign trade wants and customs. The board voted to refer the subject to special committee for consideration and future report.

DISTRIBUTION OF SEED.
the Filling and Sealing MachN nsry.

Considerable delay is being occs- stoned in the congressional seed dis tribution by the failure of the filling and sealing machinery to work as it was expected to do. The invention is a new one, and not yet in state of perfection, but it is thought that the inventor, who spends his time in the plant, will be able to have it in good working order in the next few days.
 Just now the work of filing. sealing and franking the bags is being done by hand as rapidly as possible, and some orders are being gotten out for the localities in which planting first occurs.
 It is thought by the contractors that the plant, which is conveniently To- cated near the post office. will be in full working order in the next few days. and that, even with the present delay and the extra appropriation, the work will be completed much more rapidly than ever before.
 Some fear is entertained by some congressman lest Secretary Wilson's test for germination is too high. and that he is paying too much attention to the scientific character of the sup. ply. and thus materially retarding the distribution. The congressman frank. ly confess that it is the quantity and speed of the distribution for which they care more than for the quality, and already they are making uneasy calls at the plant where the seeds are being handled and to the seed division of the agricultural department.

LAMB BREAKS UP A SCHOOL.
Animal MusA Resembling Mary's Re. sents ERorts of Teacher to Pat
 HiA Out, UDsetting Stove.

In 90 seconds a snOw-white lamb belonging to a flock that was being driven past the new schoolhouse on the Short Tract road the other day at Nunda, N. r., routed the entire school, frightened Miss Ance Ray, the teach. CT, into mysteries. and forced the trus- tees to hold special session to ap- prOpriate money to repair the damage the lamb had done.
 Its the sweetest little lamb, just the kind that followed Mary to school" Miss Ray said to her pupils as the lamb dashed into the room. The pupils thought so. too. until Miss Ray began to pet the lamb and show it toward the door Then the little animal began racing around the schoolroom. It collided with the stove and knocked leg from under it and it fell in a heap. The coals scattered all over the floor, starting a fire.
 Miss Ray and the pupils broke for the door and escaped, followed by a binding smoke. They carried snow and water and put out the fire. The lamb was extricated by John Bennett. who was driving the flock. Miss Ray went home suffering from nervous prostration and school broke up for the day.

A BAR TO PROGRESS.
Tendency in Army to Cling to Ob- solete and Useless Traditions.
Louis GAthnann, the Inventor, Tslls . Funny Story to Illustrats Pointed Critieism on Army
 Conservation.

Louis Gathmann, the Chicago inven. tor. has fund of funny stories, most of them dating back to the days when he lived in Germany. He tells one story in particular to illustrate why it is that army ordnance officers invariably dis courage new ideas in gunnery instead of welcoming inventions, as persons in charge of any private enterprise would naturally do. "When went to Holland as boy" said the shrewd old inventor, Il had an experience with ordinary army methods 1 have never forgotten. It seems there was guard posted at certain corner for some twenty-odd years. The sentry was relieved every four hours or so without the slightest question during all that time.
 Finally some one began to question why guard was posted at that par. ticu.ar corner at al. X laborious search was instituted among the old army records, and finally, to the amuse. ment of everybody, the reason for that sentry was at last discovered. It seems that fence was painted on that cor. ner, and to keep the people from soiling their clothes some weil-disposed officer stationed a soldier with a gun there The paint dried on the fence and ths fence fell down. and the corner was built up with another building, but the sentry still paced his beat there for 2t years or more.
 ''In this way some of our army tradi. tions have been kept up. and officers who are both brave and intelligent have gone on doing certain things in cer' tain way because a method was initi. ated in the department .ong years age for particular contingency which hai since entirely disappeared"

Russian OutpOsts Near at Hand.
 In the Behring straits Russia and America shake hands. Big Diomede. island and Little Diomede stand side by side, the former Russia's outpost, the other our own. A little strip of narrow sea lies between the two, and so clear is the air on fair day that it seems as if from one island you could easily reach across hand to the other. North, across Kotzeline sound, is Point Hope, barren sand spit, extending far into the Arctic sea. It is the home of a tribe of Es- kimos, who go to the mission school and church and learn to sing hymns, to speak a little English and to use soep.
