THE GAMING INSTINCT.
Through Acquiring Money and
Pleasure without Labor.

We are now, perhaps, in position
to exist and why it is so fascinating,
says the American journal of Soci-
ology. II is a means of keeping up
the conflict interest and of securing
all the pleasure-pain sensations of
conflict activity with little effort and
no drudgery; and, incidentally or
habitually, it may be a means of Sc
curing money-that is, potential sat
isfactions of all possible kinds,
through the gains accruing 10 the
winner. In gambling the risk is i'm
minent, the attention strained, the
emotions strong; and even where the
element 81 skill is removed entirely
and tie decision left to chance, an
emotional reaction analogous to the
feeling in the genuine conflict is felt.
From this standpoint our problem is
not so much to account for the
gambler as to account for the busi-
ness man. The gaming instinct Is
born in all normal persons. g Is one
expression of a powerful reflex fixed
Tar hatk III an amman NNI'l b'I''''
The instinct is. in itself, right and in
diSpcuSabIe, but we discriminate be-
tween its applications. 1t is valued
in war and business; it expresses
itself in a thousand forms in the
games of children and in college
athletics; it is approved in such eN-
pressions as golf, tennis and billiards,
as recreation for the man of
affairs; but society justly condemns
the exercise of the instinct aside
from activities which create values.
The value may be in the increased
health and yigor which the business
man derives from the recreation, or
il may be in the creation of wealth
10y this same man in a competitive
business. but the gamester pure aud
simple is not regarded with favor
by society. because he creates no
values and is therefore paraSiticaI,
and is besides a disorganizer of the
habits Of others.

Our Varying Seasons.

The longest cold season is found in
the Rocky mountain region, where it
exceeds the warm by about ten days.
The warm season in Texas and the
lower Missouri valley opens about
ten days earlier than in the region
near the middle Atlantic coast, aud
from 20 to Is days earlier than on the
southern coast Of California. In the
northwest the warm season opens
from 20 10 % days earlier than in the
lake region and from Is 20 20 days
earlier than in the north Pacific coast
region.

APRIL WEATHER.

Soon, all, soon the April weather
With the sunshine az the door,
And thu mellow melting rain-wind
Sweeping from the south once more;
Soon the rosy NAPLES budding,
And the willows putting forth,
Misty crimson and soft yellow
In the valleys OF the Nort-I;
Soon the haZy purple distance,
Where the cabined heart takes wing,
Eager for the old migration
In the magic of the spring;
Soon, ah, soon the budding windfloWer
Through the forest white aid frail
And the odorous wild cherry
Cleaning in her ghostly veil;
Soon about the waking uplands
The hepaticas in blue
Children of the first warm sunlight
In their sober Quaker hue
All our shining little sisters
Oh the forest and the field,
Lifting up their quiet faces
With the secret half revealed;
Soon across the folding twilight
OF the round earth hushed to hear,
The first robin al his vespers
Calling far, serene and clear

The duchess of Fife is one of the
most quiet and retiring of all the
king Of England's daughters. She
takes the greatest interest in the
bringing up of her little daughters
Some years since society was very
much disturbed by the case of lit
tie child of high birth, who was ac-
cidentally found to be covered with
bruises inflicted by brutal nurse
The duchess of Fife said to "a lady
who was visiting her: 'No nurse
would be able to systematically
bruise my children's bodies, for not
many days go by that I do not battle
them myself" The lady misunder-
stood and remarked: DO you trou-
bic to stay in the nursery to watch
their toilets?" 81 did not say I
watch" said the duchess, emphatic
ally. Il said | battle them myself

The emperor of Germany is always
meeting with accidents, although on
the middle finger of his left hand he
wears a famous talisman which for
centuries has been credited with a
supernatural power to protect the
wearer from evil and injury of all
kinds. 1t is a dark-colored, square
shaped stone, set in a massive gold
ring, and originally belonged to Sa-
ladin, from whom it was captured by
German knight under the walls Of
Jerusalem during the crusades. IT
afterward came into the possession
of Ulrich. the margrave of Nurem-
burg, who was the founder of the
HohenZollern family. This ring has
been passed down from generation to
generation, one of the most highly
priced and interesting heirlooms Of
the dynasty. but the kings of Prus-
STA of late generations have seldom
worn it until it was inherited by the
present kaiser. 1T is a matter of dis
cussion whether he wears it from
superstition or ordinary interest. It
has never left his finger since he
came to the throne, although by this
time he must have lost confidence in
the protective power OF the jewell

Army in South Africa.

The South African correspondent
of the London Mail in q late com
munication, gives the British force
in South Africa as follows: 250, 900
efficient troops including so, 600
mounted men, with a good supply
of horses-40, 900 having been Sc
cured in Cape Colony alone, and adds
that the next six weeks will see a
resumption Of actual campaigning.
Lord Kitchener will resume his
sweeping movements.
Other correspondents from the
same localities do not take so rosy a
view of the condition. But just con-
slider for moment the vast force
that the dutch patriots have to con-
tend with, but it is a safe conclusion
that such an immense number of
men and animals cannot exist month
away from q sure base of supplies,

army will bankrupt Great Britain

Old Settlers.

Casual conversation with these old

almost too remarkable for belief and
only for their known veracity on his
torical points especially, would give
rise TO feeble doubts. Now for in

the changes that have occurred during
his time, referred to the growth of
Snake river, stating that when he
first arrived in Idaho, he crossed it
on fence rail, but neglected to say
who carried the rail.

Coeur d'Alene Once More the Scene of
Lawlessness and Attempted
Assassination,
DEPUTY SHERIFF WOUNDED
Powell One of The Assassins and an ex-Prixe
Fighter, Killed

The following from press dis
patches give all the known particulars
up TO the present writing. And it ie
impossible to even conjecture how
serious the situation may be. Prompt
and decisive action will be taken by
the state authorities and any attempt
at awlessness will be suppressed at
once
Wallace, April IA. Two deputy
sherffs were shot at from ambush in
Mullan last night. One officer was
wounded three times. One of the
assasslns was killed by the officers.
The shooting occurred about IL
O'clock
Deputy Sheriffs Jim Rose and ..
II. Williams were walking down the
street together when party of men
fred from ambush, two balls striking
Rose IN the right arm and one in the
right thigh. The two former were
merely flesh wounds and of small
consequence, but the latter may prove
serious. The bullets entered from
behind.
Williams instantly drew his revolv-
er, whirled and began firing in tue
direction from which the shos came.
1t was too dark to see anything,
but, from the shots fired, it was
thought there were three men in the
assailing party. Williams emptied
his revolver as the men were heard
running and then turned his atten-
ton to his wounded comrade.
Sheriff Sutherland was immediately
notified by telephone and, with
Deputy Frank Rose, a brother of
the wounded officer, left for the
scene Of the shooting as soon as
team could be hitched up. Two
bloodhounds were taken up, but they
could not follow the trail.
This morning, as soon as it becam
light, a further search was made.
About hundred yards from where
Williams supposed the men 10 be
when the shooting began the body of
Jack Powell was found. Further
back the officers found revolver,
together with hat and cane, on
the track The hat and caue belong
ed to another of the party, but the
revolver was instantly recognized by
Sheriff Sutherland as one that he had
loaned Deputy Pipkin several months
ago when he was at Mullan as a state
deputy Pipkin was assaulted one
night and the revolver taken from
him. Its whereabouts since had not
been known.
Rose, the wounded officer, is in
the Mullan hospital, resting easy.
Powell was an old timer in Mullan,
an expire fighter and an all round
tough. About month ago he was
arrested here and put up revolver
and $45 as a bail, which he forfeited,
having heard that there was still
another warrant in the hands OF the
sheriff He fed to Montana and was
not known to have returned until
his dead body was found this morn
ing.
