bers on 5ouligan Commission.
Moscow, May 8.--The most ambitious
and thorough project of the new govern.
mental organization contemplated by
the rescript of Mach 3, namely, a pop.
ular assembly, is being discussed by
the second Zemstvo convention, which
opened here today. The first day was
devoted to explanations and familiariz-
ing members with the various details
OF the program, making clear points in
doubt. The project was exceedingly
well received by the delegates and
probably will be adopted in its main
lines by the congress.
1t is noticeable that the program
confines itself entively to the proposed
representative assembly, not mention
ing the executive, the intention being
to avoid any attempt at definition or
limitation or the powers of the en-
peror.
Before beginning the discussion of
the project, the members adopted a
resolution favoring participation by the
people in the work of the Bouligan
commission, only If the popular repre-
sentatives are elected, and not SELECTED
and are given an equal voice with the
government representatives. 1t was
also resolved that the deliberations of
the commission should be subject to
the broadcast publicity and that, as a
necessary preliminary to any satisfac-
tory result, the abolition OF martial
law and the establishment OF the right
OF assembly and free expression Of
thought by word and press should be
declared.

cided by the Supreme court. 1t was
brought In Shoshone county by s.
California Consolidated Mining
pany against the sheriff there an,
.. Kerns, receiver of the Occur d'A,ene
bank.
When the bank failed De Lashmutt
and McAulay owed it a large sum.
Receiver kerns got judgment against
them for $4,000. He attached a thir-
teen-sixteenths interest in the Cali
fornla mine, owcned by McAulay. ].
T. keane made an arrangement with
kerns to take over the judgment lien
and afterward got deed from McAulay.
Later, on behalf of DeLashmutt and
McAulay, he moved to have the judg-
ment vacated. He won in the District
court, but the Judgment was reversed.
Then the property was advertised for
sale by the sheriff.
-Four days prior to the day of sale
keane organized the California COM
pany and decided the property to the
new corporation. He then went into
court and produced a perpetual injunc-
tion restraining the receiver from sell
ing the mine. This judgment is now
reversed. The Supreme court intimstes
keane has been acting for De Lashmutt
and McA ulay all the time. 1t says:
Under the facts of this case, it is
clear to our mind1 that Keane was not
an innocent purchaser of this property
IN good faith and for valuable consid-
GRAFTON, unless it be that the balance
OF the consideration to be paid for the

 Her Eehty-Fifth Birthday.

But her lifelong affliction has mar velously sweetened and deepened the currents of her life, and been a means of grace wherby she has sung out of the darkness songs which have brought light into the lives of multi tudes Of her blindness and her life's work she says:
 T believe everything happens for a purpose, and what may seem to some misfortune is part of the great plan that has enabled me to bring happi- ness to many through my hymns. Not that I desire any credit, for if I have this gift it would be wrong not to use it. We are inspired to do things by a higher power, and should not take credit to ourselves. One might think me vain to talk about my work. but learned my lesson many years ago when was a little girl I had writ ten verses that attracted some atten- tion and felt very proud of them, when one day my teacher gave me a long talking to, and realized that did not know as much as thought did Since then do not think have ever been vain about my work. but simply try to do the best I can.'

Chamberlain. Col. N. S. Goss and others. These men met frequently. and did a lot of good hard work, collecting data con- cerning the slaughter of birds. framing Jaws for protection. writing strong arti- cles, securing appropriations from con- gress to further the cause of bird protec. tion. and in a score of ways awakening an interest in the feathered population, which they found to be so rapidly de- creasing.
 George Bird Grinnell. editor of Forest and Stream, was among the most active, and the columns of his paper were al- ways open. as indeed they are to this day. to writers able to preach the gospe! of the preservation of birds. To the un- tiring efforts of this publication was due in no small measure such success as at- tended the early efforts to prevent the slaughter of birds for mercantile pur- poses. On February II. 1886. it pub lished an editorial entitled: 'The Audu- bon Society" one paragraph of which ran as follows:

tunnel, seven miles away.
 Starting from opposite points twelve miles apart, one in Switzerland and one in Italy, bored toward common center, the side walls of the tunnel had united exactly. The giant work is fin- ished.
 Over 100000 cubic yards of mate rial has been removed, great part of it carted several miles from the in- terior. There were 255,O00 blasting holes bored by machinery with a total length of 100000 feet, but the num- Der of holes bored by hand was much larger, 9,600,0O0. It required 2600O, 900 bore points to drill them, representing an enormous amount of tempered steel. Over 2,O0O tons of dynamite were ex- ploded by 5000 miles of fuse and 4, 4,000.- 900 percussion caps.
 Much has been written concerning the difficulties caused by water. It is estimated that from the time the first spring was piped from the south sec tion in September. 1901. over 2,00O, ,O00.- 900 gallons of water has flowed out of the tunnel-at the rate of 2,000,O 900 gal Ions daily for 1,242 days.
 When the train bearing Sulzer, Beissner and the rest arrived the heat was unbearable. Professor Rosenmmd and his assistants stood it for ten minutes while making measurements. For some unknown reason the air cool ing machine ceased working at this critical moment. It was stifling. Ob- jects appeared to waver. Beissner warned Sulzer and those who accom- panied him to turn back. There was not moment to lose. Suddenly Grassi, representative of the Simplon company in Domodossola, sank to tho ground. A few who could do so car ried him to the first train, already filled with-workmsn.s When the outer air was reached he was hurried to tho hospital, but died from heart failure shortly after. Engineer Blanche was also overcome, and during transporta. ton artificial respiration had to be re- sorted to in order to keep him alive.
 The others recovered as soon as they were taken from the heated atmos- phere.

A vast expanse of rolling hills, sparsely inhabited in summer, in win ter wholly deserted by man, a land des- titute of trees, where patches of coarse grass and creeping shrubs alternate with tracts of stony desolation, a land of barrenness and utter solitude, and purest, most invigorating air-such is the country known as the "Vidden," or Highlands of Norway. Stretching in- land at an average altitude of 5000 feet, they are seldom visited by the ordinary travellers, for the simple reason that there is little or no accommodation for tourists

It is now more than 19 years since the original Audubon society was formed. Even as early as 1883, Forest and Stream was calling attention of the public to the fact that myriads of swallows and other small birds were being killed to supply the milliners with material for hat decoration. and urging the necessity Tor bird protection in America. During the next two years. this subject received the close attention it deserved, from many members of the newly-organized American Ornithologists union, and others now famous in one department of natural history or another. Among these men were the late Dr. Elliott Coues, Dr. c. Hart Merriam, Dr. George B. Grinnell. William Brewster. Eugene P. Bicknell, William Butcher, Dr. A. K. Fisher, Dr. J. A. Allen. George B.

 he possesses, sleeps under the open sky in bag made of reindeer skins, and varies his diet of coarse bread coffee and reindeer flesh by catching occa- sional trout from the nearest stream. All his worldly goods are comprised in the forest of moving morns, which he follows so patiently over hill and dale. In large herd only a portion of the 300 or 400 beasts belong to the Lapp. Some are the property of a company, and others are owned by private per- sons.
 In summer there is no difficulty in keeping the herd together. A man, a woman and dog are in attendance. One wonders what they would do if suit would be useless, as anyone can realize who has ever seen the wild rein deer bounding lightly up the hillside. Fortunately, the tame herd seem quite contented with their lot. In the win ter, when the Lapp is unable to fol- low so closely, and frequently loses them for days at a time, they do break away. and now and again strayed one joins his wild brethren and returns to life of freedom.
 It was grand sight to see the herd coming over the brow of hill above the river where we were fishing. Sud- denly the whole hillside seemed to be in motion. and the effect was enhanced by the fact that the dusky forms of the brown deer were scarcely visible. and the white ones moved like stately ghosts amid a swaying mass of vague, indeter- minate forms.
 "It is the reindeer herd" said our Norwegian fisherman; now you will get 'hynce' (chance) to photograph them.' .. r. u.
 We did not anticipate how easy this would be. and scrambled breathlessly up the hill. snapping shot at impos- sible distances. till we found that our approach created no disturbance in the herd. The Lapp was friendly and cor dial. He was also very drunk. He offered to lasso a "meget storbock" (very big buck) and hold him in good position to be photographed. For this purpose he produced a piece of rope two yards long, and. singing doleful ditty, attempted to capture the beast. But the fumes of the ''brandy-wine" were too much for him. Every other minute he tripped on the rough ground and fell down. Neither drunken song nor tipsy cajolery would induce 'stor book" to be captured. This mattered little, as We found no difficulty in ap- preaching near enough for our purpose. The strange, heavy-headed. sleepy-look- ing beasts had no objection to us, and only evinced mild curiosity as to our proceedings. It will be noticed that the horns are still in velvet. which accounts for their unusually massive appearance A few heads were almost clean, but it was still early in September. and an- other three weeks would have made a great difference in their appearance.
