Authority of Act Of s

Two dealers in building materials in the
city of Blair have brought suit in the
county court against the Dennis-Larkin
company OF Illinois and the United States
Fidelity and Guarantee company to recover
the price Of goods sold to the principal de-
PENDANT which were used IN the construc-

brought in the name OF the United States
for the use and benent OF John McQuarrie
and the Crowel Lumber and Grain COM
pany, under IN act Of congress authorizing
them to bring suits for material supplied
for federal buildings In this manner. The
plaintiffs allege that there is due Nc
Quarrie for material furnished the sum of
$l3. 70, and due the lumber and grain COM
pany the sum OF s147s5. The D~ennis-Larkiu

lean FISH. and the fact that Mr.. Richard
sons immense supply consists. chiefly, Of
that most valuable article, makes his pos
sessions the more precious.
In the year 1900 the Norwegian fisheries
yielded 1900 barrels" said Mr.. Richardson;
'and in. 1901 they yielded 1900. In 1902
the total yield fell to 1900, and this year,
up to April Is, with the fishing season prac-
ucally over, the total catch, stands at the
astonishingly low figure of $40 barrels. A
more vivid idea of the situation can, be OBJ
tanned when 1t is known that outside of
Norway the worlds production OF cod liver
oil amount only to 1000 barrels annually.
''Of the total production Great Britain
consumes about Is per cent, the continent
OF Europe about Is, the United States the

RAILROADS SUFFER FROM RAIN
Burlington Loses Two Hundred Feet
of Track this Side of
Bellevue.

The rain Of Thursday night did not DO
heavy damage to many of the railways.
Most of the washouts of the day before
had been repaired and It required addi-
tional work on them after the second rain.
The Burlington suffered worse than the
others, as about 200 feet of track this side
of Bellevue was washed away entirely by
the river and repair of this will take time
and expense, as the river has cut a chan
mel for itself where this track was before
and a great deal OF r%iprapping must be
done before track can be laid to replace
the old. Meanwhile the trains going west
on the Burlington are sent out on the
Union Pacific tracks to Fort Crook and
there turned bach onto their own tracks.
In Iowa the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
had a minor washout near Creston and
the morning train from Chicago was de-
layed three hours before repairs were COM
pleted.
Other trains, both from the east and
west, were generally late, but that was
caused mostly by delays in repairing the
tracks from the ravages of the previous
days storm and the new work necessary
on these repairs because Of the second
dood.

life, and 1t was too late when the police
arrived to prevent murder. Several other
instances that terminated in death and
dangerous wounds were possible because OF
similar Indifference on the part of the
saloon men.
II propose to make the saloon keepers
responsible for order in their saloons" said
the chief. 'They must do that, and IL they
do not they cannot continue their business.
The question has grown to be a serious
one and we must take vigorous measures
to check these drunken fights. There is
only one way to do 1t, and that is to get
the saloonists to act as aids in the preser-
walton of good order"

INTERESTING BIRD EMBLEM.
Guatemala Has the Oldest and Most
Unique OF ANY Nation.

New York Tribune: by far the
most interesting bird emblem of a
modern state lis that os the republic
of Guatemala. 1t has been adopted
as the national crest for SO long that
Oartly through the taste for stamp
colleoting) the existence of one of the
rarest and most beautiful of the bird
creation has been made far more wide.
~ known than 1T otherwise would have
been. There is Il race OF birds called
trogons. most of which have fine
feathers and remarkable eoloring. They
are found In India and the Malays but
are most numerous in Central and
South America. 1t was from their
plumage that the Mexioans made their
famous mosaics eff feather work. From
the tail feathers they made the lus-
trous green helmets of their kings and
mobiles. The most gorgeous of all was
the long tailed or resplendent trogon,
which was kept as a sacred or royal
bird in the palace Of Montezuma, or in
one of the twp houses which formed
the royal menageiie Adequate de-
scription of the bird is almost impos-
sible. 1t has rounded plume on it's
head, cascades of feathers falling from
the back over the shoulders, plumes
falling over the tail yard long, and a
most elegant contour. The color of
the whole of the upper surface and
punles is most resplendent golden
green, that of the breast and under
parts crimson or scarlet Such is the
national emblem OF Guatemala.
