THE CARRYING OF ARMS.
Privilege Will Be Granted in the Phil
ippines Under Certain
Conditions.

Civilians in the Philippines have the
privilege of carrying arms under certain
conditions, says the Washington Star.
Under law enacted by the Philippine
commission, the civil governor, the
chief of constabulary, the governors Of
the provinces and the inspectors of
constabulary may authorize, in writing
ANY resident of the province to pur-
chase or receive gun or revolver, or
both, when satisfied that the person so
purchasing, receiving and having GUS
tody OF the gun or revolver needs it for
his reasonable protection or will use it
for hunting or other lawful purposes
only" 1t is provided, further, that ANY
person not connected with the army or
navy of the United States, or otherwise
authorized by law, having in his GUS
tody a gun or revolver or other firearm
or ammunition for the same, who shall
not have the license under this section
provided, shall be punished by fine not
exceeding $1,000 and Imprisonment not
exceeding one year and one day"
In order to prevent unauthorized pos
session of firearms by civilian employees
OF the army under color of the authority
derived from the act in question, the
commanding general of the division Of
the Philippines has issued general Or
der on the subject, in which he says
that commanding officers of stations
will issue permits for definite period:

For the Yachting Girl.

Blue for dresses from time immemo-
rial has been devoted to the sea. But red
is much worn now and is becoming to a
blonde. A brunette looks better in blue.
The shade of red is known as sea red. and
is warranted to resist sun, wind and salt
water and keep it's depth and brilliancy
of hue. A white vest should be worn
with red gown to soften it. The little
yachting cap may be all white. Duck,

OREGON FARM WONDERS.
Some Of the Agricultural Feata of
the state Are Quite
Startling.

The northwest is prominently the
wonderland of production on the CONT
nent. William Macleod Raine, in Pear
sons, tells how a farmer in the Hood
River country in Oregon raised on four
acres 800 bushels of potatoes that near
ly all ran from three to eight pounds
apiece. There was not in the lot one
that weighed less than a pound
Squashes weighing as much as a large
man, pumpkins tipping the scale at the
hundredweight, watermelons larger
than the southern pickaninnies whose
eyes would bulge at seeing them. tur-
nips larger than ones head, pears and
apples with a circumference of half
yar&, are to be seen at the annual fairs
of Salem and The Dalles
The biggest apples. the biggest pears
and the biggest cherries at the Chicago
exposition were from Oregon, and the
charge cannot be made against them
that what they gain in size they lose in
flavor The Pathological society, which
is the highest authority on fruit in the
country, awarded to the state of Oregon
the Wilder medal for the horticultural
exhibit at the Pan-American. The
''Webfoot state" stands first in the pro-
duction of hops, raising about one-third
of the country's total production.
So far as is known, there is no spot
on earth, with the exception Of eastern
Oregon and Washington and the ad-
joining valleys of Idaho, where three
or four crops of wheat may be harvested
from one sowing. Yet since the first
settlement of the country these "volun-
.teer" crops have been reaped. A second
crop from seeding is officially report
ed to have yielded 80 bushels to the

CITY Filtration Plant.

In the experience of the larger Euro
pean cities which have introduced filtra-
ion into their systems of water supply
it is found that the average death rate
from typhoid epidemics has diminished
from one in every $500 inhabitants to
one in every 1000. Such testimony is
conclusive as to the efficacy of filtration,
which. after the recent experience of
Ithaca, receives, as it deserves, much
more active American attention than
formerly.

Insect Aeronauts.

Insects enjoying aerial navigation
by the use of balloons were recently
caught by French naturalist, who
noticed them as small, bright objects
floating in the air and behaving as if
they were being steered. He caught
some of them and found them TO be
viscous air bubbles one-fourth of an
inch long, of uniform dimensions, and
showing irideseent reflection. Each
balloon was suspended by tie feet OF
an insect, resembling the hornet fly.

SALT FROM ENGLAND.
1t Is Shipped Over Here I'm Bags nd
Goes Back i'm Packed
Meat.

One thousand sacks of English salt
passed through the custom office in
Kansas City one day lately, of a fine
quality used in packing meats for ex-
port, and comes from Liverpool.
A peculiar thing about this same
salt is that it must travel back to
Liverpool again, though in a different
form, reports the Star, of that city.
Here it is used in packing meat which
will } ultimately find it's way to
John Bulls breakfast table John
Bull believes in reciprocity, as proved
by the salt received to-day. He uses
our meat only on condition that we
use his salt in packing it, This ar
rangement suits Kansas City pack
ers, and causes them little inconveni-
ence.
When the salt is received they pay
duty of IL cents per hundred pounds.
When it is returned with beef and
pork an export duty Of the same
amount is charged. Uncle Sam col
lects one per cent. for handling these
products through the customs office
The exporter and consignee get to-
gether and are not, in the end. out very
much.
Tons of salt are received in Kan
sas City for use in the packing
| houses in the west bottoms. 1t comes
| in sacks weighing about 225 pounds
each 1t is mined in the south Of
England. and it is much finer
quality, say the packers, than they
could possibly secure in this country

principle that the will of the people,
plainly expressed, must prevail, even
if all the forms and features of a
complicated election and caucus law
were not observed. 1t was a wise
decision, for it was based upon
common sense. Every case yet
brought in Wisconsin in which a
minor feature of the present caucus
and election law has been brought
into question, has been decided
against the provisions of the law, i.
e., it has been held to be subservient
to and not above the will of the
people, either at an election or at a
convention. The law, as whole, has
not yet been passed upon by the
supreme court. : Waupaca Post.
