and to any Of any aesthetic temperament
whatever il presents a scene of unusual interest
and beauty. Mr.. Palmer a busy man. having
his attention occupied during business hours
with general financial interests about New
York, and the rest Of the time is devoted to the
exacting life Of a connoisseur. H is as inter
ested in rare books and prints he is plants
and trees. and both his library and his arbore-
tun make a valuable and varied collection
At this time Of the year naturally, attention
is centred in the arboretum- Mr., Pamers
place consists Of some forty acres. and practi-
caly all OF it is given over to the cultivation of
plants and trees.
About ten years ago Mr Palmer took up his
residence here. and he began at once 10 collect
specimens OF uncommon plants and trees. 1t
was distinctly quality and not quantity that
was uppermost in his mind. which resulted in
rather slow work, but with the reward that there
is now scarcely anything growing the place
that is Of some rarity During the last three
years Mr.. Palmer has made extensive additions
to his aTboretum. and in that time has received
valuable assistance from his gardener, A Hans,
who was at one time an associate gardener at
Central Park
when Mr. Palmer engaged me-" said Mr.
Hans the other day. he told ne to be con

plants, and l have tined my best to live up to

REsCUERs SHOULD NOT BE IN HASTE
CRAMP NOT NECESSARILY FATAL.

In discussing the subject of accidental drown
irg a professional swimmer said the other day
that many good swimmers have been drowned
because a slight cramp deprived them of the,
wits 1t seems 10 be the general belief that to
be seized with a cramp in the water means that
it is all up" with the swimmer. and he become.
panic stricken. founders and struggles and goe:
down. If he would give the arm or leg a chance
to come TO-" initiate his lungs and float. in
other words if he would keep his wits about
him. the cramp would pass off. and he would
be saved to swim again.
The same man attributes many Of the double
drowning accidents to lack of judgment on the
part Of the man who jumps into the water to
save a fellow being.
Don't be in d hurry" he says. 'to reach the
drowning man. He must come up several times
while his lungs being empted of air and

DO not run the risk Of eXhausting yourself

the contrary favor Il. There is not a
citizen Of these counties or the state

that the land asked for by Hollister

The HoIlister power plant means
more for the state OF Idaho than
any enterprise that has been sug

state in all It's past history. II
means the resurrection and upbuild-
ing Of the latent mining industries
Of Blaine county By giving to the
people there cheap power 10 work

the people of Cassia county, for it
will also give 10 them power and

An official denial was made yesterday
OF reports of various sorts. emauating
from New York principally that the

President or would be terminated by
the Attorney General. acting on Mr.

that his report had some surprises n

this might afford some new opportunity
for the President 20 take hand in the
settlement.

The treaty was drawn with especial
reference to the case of Charles Kratz.

Mexico after Indictment for accepting

Tor kratz's surrender, and the Mexican
government offered to comply on condi-
tion that this Government woulG recip-

Zens who might take refuge in the

II was constitutionally and legally i'm
possible for the State Department to
make any such arrangement and Mexico
thereupon declined to grant the original
