Affects Idaho Sheriffs.

| .
Judge Bulge in the district
court at Pocatello last week,
delivered an opinion that may
have its effect in every county
in Idaho, and wherever applied
will effect the remuneration Of
the sheriff's Office.
The opinion arises out of the
suit of Bannock county against
w. Il. Trapp, Lyman Fargo, j.
ii. Townsend, ID. w. Church and
A. j. Pierce, bondsmen of Ex-
Sheriff M. d. Rice, who on leav-
ing the office last January is al
legged to have left a shortage of
SO, 900.
The countyis suing the bonds
men for this amount, and the
latter, after alleging that Elk
Sheriff Rice has abscOnded. have
asked the court to order the
amount due Rice for salary.
some $1,000, applied on the short
age; they also ask that 1896. IS
due Rice for prisoners meals, be
applied in the same manner.
Rlce has assigned the latter &C
count, but the commissioners
refused to pay the money over
because Rice was in arrears with
the county.
The commissioners had con-
tracted with Rice to feed the
prisoners at 45 cents per day.
Rice in turn made contract
with Joe Mombert at 80 cents
per day. Mombert brought suit
against the county on this basis
or for s377.10, and Judgment
was rendered in Mombert's
favor.
In his opinion Judge Bulge
says that Rice, as sheriff, was
agent Of the county and the
county was liable for the amount
OF the contract with Mombert:
that the sheriff could not main
tain claim for the prisoners
board unless he presented
voucher showing the bill paid.
Order of the commissioners al
lowing the sheriff IS cents per
day for prisoners meals was
void and Of no effect, for the
reason that the sheriff can only
claim the actual expense in
Cured in the support of persons
in his charge, and this would
have to be verified statement.
1t is thought that if Judge
Budge's opinion is sustained it
will reverse the practice in every
county in Idaho where a consid
cradle portion of the sheriff s in
come is derived from profitable
contracts for prisoners board. |
The profit is said to range from
Is to 90 cents per prisoner per
day.

WORK AT THE TRAINING QUARTERS
Corbett'S Try-Out.

Corbett gave his sparring partner,
Sammy Berger, terrific run for
nineteen minutes, and as a man who
claims to have finished his heavy
training the mixed boxing, clinching
and wrestling bout they put up APP
peared more than a trife strenuous.
Hitting in breaks and roughing while
locked together was evidently the plan
Corbett had In mind, says a special
from Corbett's training camp.
All the tricks of which the former
champion is master were utilized in
that rapid nineteen minutes of fight
ing, and a referee would have been
forced to give a warning more than
once for to free use of the heel of the
glove and dexterous back-heeling when
the contest became heated.
1t is no eXaggeration to say that a
man of Corbett's dimensions seldom If
ever maintained such a pace for al
most a third of an hour without a
breathing spell and finished in such
good condition.
Previously Corbett had gone the
rounds of his gymnasium apparatus
for a quarter of an hour without hur-
rying and his condition was more APP
parent in comparison with the distress
of an opponent scarcely half his age
Berger puffed like a locomotive from
the fighting, while Corbett's respira-
ton was almost normal.

THE AMERICAN OSTRICH.
He's Doing n Good Business in
Feathers and Is Breeding Rapidly.
From Town and Country.

From Town and Country.
A recent shipment of forty ostriches
to NiQs. on the borders of Italy and
France. from California, directs atten-
ton to this growing California indus
try-the culture of the African ostrich
in America. lust about fifteen years
have elapsed since the American os-
trich farmers gave their first serious
attention to this subject. Now the
ostrich industry is we'll established in
the United States. some eight hundred
birds existing in the country, and these
will doubtless form the nucleus of that
immense number that will one day COW
er the mesas of Southern California.
the meadows of Arizona, the vast pla-
teaus of Texas and the everglades of
Florida, as their kind do the African
veldt to-day
The ostrich has come to stay, he costs
little to keep-not more than the ordi-
nary Sheppard yields an annual val
| ue of $50 to the proprietor. One man
can take care of one hundred ostriches.
The creature is hardy and of a care
less appetite. The average increase to
the stock is between fifteen and twen-
| ty ostricheS to a pair. Some have been
| known to produce as many as thirty
seven in a year. The birds are kept
in pens in California. and a source of
! revenue has been found in exhibiting
| them to many tourists who are at
tracted there. Incubators showing the
various stages of ostrich life are also
on view. A growth from the size of
a duck to hight of six feet is ques-
ton of only six months.
When the birds are a year old their
! feathers are ready for the market. The
| cropping is accomplished by covering
| the ostrich's head with a hood and
! plying a pair of shears. This process
| takes place every eight months. The
feathers on the large side wings are
| cut off near the roots. and the smaller
feathers on the tail are pulled out with
out injury to the bird, for on the care
now bestowed depends the future
| health of the coming feather. In the
| course of three weeks the stems left
start to fall out, and a new feather be-
| gins to grow, which in due time Is
| taken off for the benefit of the ostrich
| farmer. The feathers are graded and
sent TO the feather manufacturers of
| New York. who make them up in the
beautiful articles of dress so dear to
! the hearts of those who wear them.
When the American woman can buy
only the ostrich feathers of the Amer
lean ostrich the most sanguine hopes of
Edwin Cawston. the pioneer Califor-
| MAN ostrich farmer. will have been
| realized. Two million dollars each
! year will then remain in the country
| instead of going to London.

why Women Don't Fish.
From Outing.

How does it happen that the fish
erman's mantle never falls on the
women of the house? Investigators
claim that the daughter is more likely
to inherit the fathers qualities than
is the son. We all know that with
other taints and MISUNDERSTANDING
that cause, alas suffering, shame, dis
ease, disgrace, death-nature is not so
lenient. Women come in for their
share of the visitation for the sins of
their fathers, and there are no physi-
cal traits or peculiarities that may not
descend in the same way. 1t seems
to me trifle hard that when it comes
to the one inheritance that yields such
absolute enjoyment they should be so
mercilessly cut out.
/ do not believe they are cut out, ex-
cept by artificial reasons. 1 believe
the daughter is born with the same
devotion to the stream, the woods, the
open air, the blue sky, the same in
tolerance of restraint, the same period
ical longing to be away, with the same
skilful hands and uncanny brain that
her father had before her and that her
brothers are encouraged to indulge
Custom, however, has put a broom in
her hands, a needle in her fingers
long skirts that bind her liberty, and
the cry OF duty and decorum in her
ears.

WALTH0UR WILL TRY FOR
WORLDS HOUR RECORD.

Next Tuesday night at the Charles
River track Bobby Walthour will
make an effort to break the world S
record for one hour.
Bobby has set his heart on estab-
fishing new figures for 60 minutes
ride behind the motors, and thinks
. that he can cover so miles in the
period.
The race in which he will make the
attempt is a team race. Bobby will
be mated with Joe Nelson and Cald-
well will ride with DeGuichard.
The Charles River track is one of
the fastest in the country, and if the
conditions are pTopitious and no acct
dents occur it is probable that one
of the riders will smash the record.
Bobby is, of course, the favorite.

AL. M'MURRAY
BACK IN GAME.

AL McMurray, after being out Of the
managerial business for nine months,
will again take hand in the game.
Mack has letters from Tommy Feltz,
Jack Doyle, Johnny Reagan, George
Halliday, Matty Matthews, Tim Sulli-
van and Tim Kearns, all asking him
to do their business. McMurray states
his reason for going back in the game
is somewhat like the soubrette, once
they get behind the lime light, they
always have a laundering to getE back,
McMurray decided not to go back into
the game, but FeltZ, who he brought
up has gotten the worst of it and if
he and Mack can agree on terms he
will again put him to the top of the
ladder

NEW VEGETABLES.
Being Introduced in United States
From Mexico and Europe.

From the Saturday Evening Post.
The Department of Agriculture is
making experiments with many new
vegetables which are expected to prove
useful in this country, if the people
can be persuaded to grow them. It's
eXplorere are fetching them from vari-
GUS parts of the world, especially from
Mexico, which is known to possess
many food plants that would be of
much value if introduced into the
United States.
Among the available Mexican vege-
tables are various kinds of peppers,
and several species of tomatoes which
are unknown to US. For example, there
is the "husk tomato" which is about
the size of a horse-chestnut, and is
contained in sort of detachable rind
that is removed when the fruit is ripe
as preliminary to cooking it. 1t is
not good raw, but is said to be ex-
cellent when stewed or fried. The
Mexicans preserve it as a sweet pickle.
Then there is a brand-new kind of
cucumber, which is quite an oddly in
its way inasmuch as it explodes with
a loud report when ripe, throwing it's
red seeds to a distance. It's chief
use is as medicine, but the vine
on which it grows is so handsome as
to be desirable for gardens. More val
liable Is giant okra, lately obtained
from Europe, which has pods five or
SIX times the ordinary size. Soon,
doubtless, it will be commonly grown
in this country, and will be obtainable
in our markets. 1t has a delightful
flavor.
Another European vegetable which
Uncle Sam wants to introduce is the
tuber of plant that looks a good
deal like marsh grass. 1t is only about
as big as hazle nut, and when eaten
raw resembles cocoanut in flavor. This
is called "chervil," and may be cooked
in a variety of ways. The plant is a
kind of sedge.
Special attention is being paid to the
cultivation of new pot herbs on the
experimental form, which the govern
ment maintains near Washington, and
the seeds are the best of these, when
a sufficient supply has been obtained.
will be distributed to farmers and
gardeners. Notable among them is a
plant from India called "basella, ."
which bears fruit that looks like little
blackberries. 1t is a vine, has pink
blossoms resembling those of the ar
butuS, and is said to be delicious
1t is always difficult to persuade peo-
pie to eat new things-a fact of which
the common tomato, which a genera
ton ago was considered poisonous In
New England, affords a familiar illus
tration. Nevertheless, every new veg
etable is an important addition to our
happiness and welfare, and a con-
tribution not to be despised by those
who appreciate a well-flaVored plate Of
soup or dish of stew.
