 9. Insectivorous Birds-Robins, swal- lows, cedar birds. meadowlarks, flick CTS, night hawks or bull bats, and a few other insectivorous species, as well as such birds as lonkspurs. snow buntings and shore larks, which the useful in destroying seeus of weeds, are occasion ally killed as game. They are, however. generally protected. and under no cir cumstances should they be sent to mar ket or shipped out of the state.
 10. Birds for Millinery Purposes-Sta- tutes even more stringent than those protecting game birds have recently been enacted by many states for the preservation of birds which are not in cludCd in the game list. Under these statutes birds are in demand for mnlin- cry purposes are protected throughout the year, and sale and possession, as well as killing. are prohibited. 1t should be remembered that the principal cen ters for millinery supplies are nearly all located in states which have such laws, and the purchase of native song birds, as well as of herons. pelicans. gulls. terms, or sea swallows. grebes or othec plume birds, should be avoided. The shipment of these birds or any part of their plumage is prohibited by the pro- visions of the federal law Ostrich feathers are not subject to these re- strictiOns and their use should be en- couraged.

Interstate Trade in Game.

Washington - In order to secure q more general observance of the act of May 9, 1900, entitled An act to enlarge the powers of the department of agri- culture, prohibit the transportation by interstate commerce of game killed in violation of local laws, and for other purposes" the department invites at tention to the provisions of the federal and state laws relating to shipmen of birds and game. These laws are in- tended to preserve for the common good certain animals and birds that are val uable as food, for sport, or as destroy
 CTS of pests. They are generally sup ported by public sentiment, but are ire uuently violated through ignorance, as comparatively few persons realize the rapid increase in protective legislation or the numerous restrictions which have been imposed on the trade in game. Sportsmen. market hunters. game dealers. commission merchants, railroad and express agents. and all other persons concerned should famil- iarize themselves so far as possible with the regulations now in force. Copies of state laws may be obtained from fish and game wardens or secre- tarics of state. and county laws (pub
 lished as farmers bulletin No. 16O) may be had on application to this depart
 ment. The most important provisions

It is simply great natural inland basin that has received the fresh water drainage from tlfe sur rounding higher lands and mountains. Such drainage carries down a certain amount Of saline matter.

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

An alarm clock for deaf mutes is the novel invention or Elza Cretzer a deaf mute in the employ of the Washoa smelling plant. who resides at No. 15 Birch street in Anaconda. How to awake at a certain hour has long been the problem among these unfortunate people and in Cretzer's invention the solution has been found. Of course. the ordinary alarm clock has been useless. CTetzer, who is an ingenious fellow, is a water and Hume tender at the Wa shoe smelter. His work necessitates his rising at an early hour in the morn ing, and IS he has no means Of awak- ening he has lost many days of work by being late. He accordingly set about inventing an apparatus by which he could always be on time. The dropping of pillow on the sleeping person is the awakening agent and it is operated so

A telephone message from Bisbee this morning brings the news of an other accident to an empl6yo in the Copper Queen shelter. which will prob ably prove fatal, says the Tombstone Prospector of Saturday.
 About ten o'clock this morning Peter i%alaregra. who was engaged in the converter pit in lining the convcrters. accidentally fell from the top of the same, where he was at work. and fell to the floor distance of about twelve feet. striking his head on an iron turn table, crushing his skull and rendering him unconscious.

THE FIRST NEWSPAPER.

There has been considerable contro- versy of late years as to which country should be conceded the honor of print ing the first regular newspaper. Claims have been successively put forward for Italy, France. Germany England and Holland. and all with some degree Of plausibility, but it appears from recent researches that neither one of these is entitled to the distinction. and that precedence should be given to Belgium. IL has been established by the an tiquaries that q certain Abraham Yer hoevcn of Antwerp. obtained. in 1GOj
 from the Archduke and Duchess Albert and Isabelle. the privilege of printing news sheet. As the first German paper appeared in 1915. at Frankfort. the first Dutch paper in 1G17. the first English paper. the Weekly Gazette. in 1922. and the first French paper in 1631. it would appear that Antwerp's claim has some foundation, and that tho Belgian city initiated what has become one of the most influential factors Tn modern life and progress. On the strength Of this it is proposed to hold q great tercentenary celebra ton in Ant werp some time during the year 1905.
