Prosecuting Attorney of King County
Acts

Seattle.-If an agreement entered
into between Prosecuting Attorney
Scott and Sheriff Cudihee, is carried
out there will be no more public gam
bling in Seattle. no matter how sound

Mr.. Scott, as his action in closing

covered traditions of his offices and
will hereafter take an active part in
preventing certain forms of laWbreak-
ing within the city limits.
More important still. he will be full
~ prepared to make his influence felt,
for he has obtained from Sheriff Cud-
ihee the latters assurance that he will
cooperate with him in the work he
has undertaken.
The startling change in the attitude
of the two county officials regarding
city affairs was announced when Mr.
Scott laconically said:
Il have instructed the sheriff to
keep gambling closed. | am informed
that no games are now running any
where within the county. 1t will be my
policy hereafter to see that none are
opened. and | have instructed the

1t would be hard to Overestimate
the salutary effect the resolve of the

the next city election.
The fact that Prosecuting Attorney
Scott is an old line republican and that
Sheriff Cudihee is democrat who was

votes Of republican friends, may com
pllcate the situation.

She was a radiant maiden
Whom a score of suitors had sought;
He was a man who never
Stood the ghost of show they thought
Yet he won her, and won her fairly,
She gave him her love one day:
Oh men lay plans that are subtle.
But the fates keep having their way.
He didn't rush off to battle
And, exhibiting valOr there
Cause thrills to pursue one another
In the breast OF the maiden fair:
He wrote no heavenly poem
Concerning the radiant maid,
He gained no wonderful fortune
Through coup on the Board OF Trade.
One day the beautiful maiden

To push her as hard as he could
She squeezed hersels through the door

And there saw the fortunate chap.

A dispute about rubber may cause the

AS early as 1895. however. the world s
supply OF rubber was not equal TO
the demand The forests Of South and
Central America did not furnish more
than half enough for the tires Of bicycles
and other vehicles which use up the
product IN large quantities. Efforts
were made TO cultivate rubber. and many
a glowing prospectus was sent out set
ting forth the advantages OF the soil Of
Mexico. Honduras. and Guatemala. But
rubber was needed for the tires OF au
tomobIles. which could not wait ten OF
twelve years for rubber trees to grow.
Then capitalists began 10 turn their

diffcult Of access in Bolivia, as vessels
could not go up the Bolivian rivers
within a hundred miles OF the terri

forests Of II. enough TO furnish tires
for all the automobiles built for years
TO come. In the 10000 square miles
Of Acre It was estimated rubber trees

OUR MIXTURE OF RACES.

The provisions of the immigration bill
which passed Congress do not seem 10
be OF a character which will tend TO the
diminution Of the present great volume
OF immigration in any considerable
measure. This immigration is OF people
of races from which this country re-
ceived comparatively few representa-
tives up 20 about fifteen years ago. or the
races OF eastern and southern Europe.
The immi grafton from Austria Hun
gary. Italy. and Russia during the sixty
years from 1870 10 1850 aggregated only
22l .S22 out OF a total OF O,IsI .O44, and
more than four-hfths OF il was in the
single decade between 1870 and 1850.
About hve-sixths OF the whole immigra-
tion was from northern Europe-Ire-
land. Germany, and Scandinavia. From
1850 TO 1900. however. the immigration
from eastern and southern Europe was
nearly one-third OF the total OF toward
100000. and now II is far in the lead.
Formerly, the Italians here were
known popularity as organ grinders
only. and. OF course. they suffered in
reputation consequently. Up 10 1859
there were here only a few thousand
OF the race, all told, and even IN 1870
their number had increased BY less than
twelve thousand Now they must num-
Der in the city OF New York alone to-
ward a quarter OF a million.

paper on the coming American race in

ranean race. to which the Italians be-

Sicily's Noble Houses.

The Italian department OF the interior
al Rome has just issued an Official list
Of the noble houses OF Sicily. and Of
those who alone are authorized to make
use OF Sicilian titles. The list has
been drawn up with much care by the
Royal Italian College of Heraldry az
Rome. a government institution created
for the express purpose OF regulating the
use OF nobiliary titles From now on.
therefore. no Italian public Official, con-
sui, or notary will be allowed 10 men,
tion in deeds or official documents any
titles not contained In this list. while
the authorities will have a right to in
stitute penal proceedings against those
whose claims. pretensions. and adoption

letters the Italian College OF HeraIdry

present, 81 must be borne in mind, so
large a part is Jewish that the number
OF Jews IN New York has increased
within very recent years to SOC. .OO0. and
IL the present rate OF their immigration
continues till 1910 they are likely TO
