GOVERNMENT IRRIGATION.
Thousands of Farms RecIaimed from Y the Arid Lands of the
 West

The far-reaching plans for irri ga- tion of the arid west through the assistance of the powerful national government are slowly turning into facts, says the Minneapolis Journal. Recently conteact' was let for a dam across the Snake river in Idaho that, with two large main ditches, will reclaim 34o,0oo acres of fertile land. It is we'll known that a 40- acre irrigated farm is equivalent in production to 8 16o-acre nonirrigated farm. On that basis the Snake river reclamation will provide $500 farms, or, probably, homes for about 5o,ooo people, and the villages and cities will have from 25,oOo to 50ooo more. And all this will come from the wa tering of only a4o,ooo acres! And before Uncle Sam is through with his big job he will turn water ento 1oo,- O00,0 acres. ..E

An Artificial Comet.

Prof. E. L. Nichols and Mir. G. F. Hull, of Cornell university, hava ob- tained a very accurate reproduction of comets tail while experimenting with the pressure of light upon float ing particles of extreme minuteness
 A powder consisting of emery and the spores of puffballs was put in a vacuum tube from which the air was exhausted as completely as possible. When the rays from an arc-light were concentrated upon the powder the lighter particles were seen to be blown out as if repelled by the light, pre- senting 8 striking resemblance to 8 comets tail. According to Arrhenius and others, this is analogous to the way in which the sun actually pro- duces the tails of comets. The ex- perimenters found that the effect upon the powder was of the same or der of magnitude as would be ex- pected from the value of the pressure of light deduced by them from other experiments.

SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP.

Cured by One Bottle of Chamberlain's
 Cough Remedy.
 ssWhen I had an attack or the grip last winter (the second one) actually cured myself with one bottle of Cham berIain's Cough Remedy" says Frank W Perry, editor of the Enterprise, sShor+sville. N. Y. "This is the honest truth. I at times kept from coughing myself to pieces by taking a teaspoon f,1J of this remedy and when the cough inc spell would come on at night I womb take a dose, and it seemed that ,n the briefest interval the cough yrould pass off and 1 would go to sleep nerfectiy free from cough and its ac- companying pains. To say that the remedy acted as a most agreeable sur- nrise is putting it very mildly. I had no idea that it would or could knock out the grip, simply because had new CT tried it for such a purpose, but 1t did. and 1t seemed with the second at tack of coughing the remedy caused it not only be of less duration, but the Dains were far less severe, and had not used the contents of one bottle be fore AIr Grip had bid mo adieu.'

WHEN WOMEN LOVE.

The fast day program at Poli's matinee and night, will be the new melodrama ''When Women Love-" :" which will likewise be played Satur- day afternoon and evening. The play is a strong one full of heart interest and startling climaxes and is said to champion organized labor more than any other play yet written. Apropos of this there is a scene of timely local interest in the act where Madge. the heroine poor factory girl is arrested in the factory on false charge of theft as she is hurrying to the bedside of her mother who is dying. Enemies who hate the girl because she has riches, although unconscious of the fact, con- spire against her and she is only sav- ed from instant arrest by a clever stratagem Of Phil, the shipping clerk. What that stratagemt was, and how the poor girl obtains her rights, is thor oughly worked out in the play. Prices are popular.

LACK OF FOREIGN TONGUES.
American Women as a Rule Do Not Acquire Knowledge of
 Other Languages.

A serious defect to the education of most American women is their failure to acquire in their youth con ,versational facility in other lam guages than their own. Many girls include a foreign tongue or two in the list of their studies. but it is simply eye skill that they secure, ability to read and write the lam guage with varying degrees of excel lence. When the ear test comes it is the exception when they are not almost helpless, says Harper's Bazar. An English girl is not considered ed- ucated until she is fluent in at least one other than her native language, and she often speaks two or three easily. A trip abroad illustrates and emphasizes the fact that Americans are very provincial in the matter of languages. In a group of foreigners taken at random, German, French and Italian, together with English, one of the hardest tongues to learn, will be heard interchangeable among ! its members: it is not until an Amer ican joins the group that the talk through courtesy to his or her lim- itations, becomes restricted to En- glish. In Sweden, French, German and English are obligatory studies in the curricula. The kindergarten children are taught the language in delightful fashions, the girls with their dolls and kitchen-garden classes, the boys with games and sports and the like.

The show as a whole has scored more favor than any since Waten and Hutchings headed the bill some eight weeks ago. and had it been playing any other week there isn't a doubt that the house would have been filled to overf1owing at every perform ance As it is, the attendance has been unexpectedly good and tomorrow two very large audiences are looked for Those who attend may be sure of solid enjoyment, for no such eccentric dancing as MT Leach does has ever been seen on the local stage, and the whole act is one in which eccentric comedy just runs riot. The other acts on the bill, too, are of grade that places the show among the ones to be singled out as one of the eminently satisfying ones of the season. Prices are 10 20 and 80 cents. and for the matinee tomorrow these prices will prevail, according to the custom of all vaudeville houses on holidays. Next week James J.
