KNOW RULES OF HEALTH.
Japanese Are Showing the World
Their Superiority in the Attain
ment of Physical Excellence.

just now, while the military
prowess and general staying pow
ar of the Japanese are claiming
the attention and respect of the
civilized world, it is of great inter
est, says Youths Companion, to
note the claims made, by those
who know best, as to their ad-
Vanced attitude toward the whole
question of hygiene and physical
development. We of the west are
all too apt to take it for granted
that we stand in the advanced
guard of all evolution, and it has
become the custom of late years to
enlighten the laity by word and
pen on their duty to their ply
siques. Health is the fashion, and
it's rules are published broadcast.
Now we are told that in Japan
health is not only the fashion-it
is the universal habit. The Japan
csc people not only know the rulea
that govern it, but all classes un-
tiringly practice them.
They are the same old rules
we have them all at our tongues
ends-breathe deeply and slowly
of fresh air, battle regularly, eat
moderately, drink plenty of fresh
water. We all know them, we all
respect them, but most of us ig-
more them, except by fits and
starts.
With the Japanese the case is
different. They are naturally an
abstemious people and not great
meat-eaters. They have always
laid great stress ON the value of
large quantities of pure water to
flush the system and keep the kid
news in good condition, and they
are probably the most inveterate
bathers in the world. AS to their
muscular development and con-
troll. they are famous, and last, but
not least, they place great weight
on the Importance of cultivating
aud practicing all the time the
fundamental principles of hy-
giene.
They are today pitted against
huge and powerful nation, and are
winning victory after victory over
their adyersaries, not because
they outnumber them, not because
they are bigger, but largely be-
cause their bodies are trained to
endurance and their minds to pa
thence and foresight.
The western nations are begin
ming TO learn the lesson they teach
m practice with patient per-
s;stence those laws of health that
hove been taught so often. The
iiniitsu, the system of body-train-
;no nracticed by the Japanese for
oonturies, is the foundation of
many modern treatises on physical
culture.

Land Office Affirmed.

The secretary of the interior has
affirmed the decision of the COM
missioner of the general land office,
holding for cancellation the desert
land entry of William R. Deckard
for the NW4 SE4 Sec. 81, T. 2 n,
R. 10 E., HALEY land district,
Idaho.
This matter was first heard be-
fore the clerk of the district court
here and concluded at HALEY, where
it was decided in favor of Hutchins.
Mr. Deckard appealed the case to
the commissioner of the general
land Office, Hon. w. A. Ander.
son of Washington, D. c., repre-
senting him. E. M. Wolfe filed a
brief for Hutchins and the case
was decided in his favor. Then
Deckard again appealed to the Sec
retary of the interior, with the
above result.
The case, which involves valua-
bic land at Pine, was decided on
the Goth.

Judge Price Reversed.

On the 18th the Supreme court
handed down a decision in the case
OF the State VS.. Arthur Chambers,
who was tried and convicted in the
April, 1903, term of the district
court Of the crime of forging. F. p.
Axes name to check for $50, in
which the judgment of the district
court is reversed and the case re-
manded for new trial.
The judge and county attorney
believe Chambers could not be con
victed again and, as he had already
served almost year in prison, the
case was dismissed.
Chambers was stranger in this
place and fell in with Jack Fisk
who was also tried, but acquitted.
The evidence showed that Fisk
told several people that he had
money in the bank and that he Sc
cured a blank check which was
subsequently cashed at the Palace
saloon here. 1t seems that he gave
Chambers $40 of the $50, and this
with the fact that he had been
around town with Fisk and made
the statement that he saw a man
give the check to Fisk led to his
arrest and conviction.
E. M. Wolfe, who was appointed
by the court to defend Chambers,
became convinced that he was not
guilty and appealed to the Supreme
court.
The court held that the "clerk
must read the information to the
jury and inform them of the defend
ants plea" This was not done.
The court also held that the effect
of the trial courts instruction, ad-
monition and urging" was to bring
in verdict of guilty.
Fisk has been released and was
here Tuesday, and declared his in

zaspel had gone after some giant
