THE COUNTY BOUNDARY.
Boundary Line Between Jefferson
and ChehaIiS Counties Settled.

OLYMPIA, Sept. 19.-The dispute OF
long standing over the location of the
boundary line between Jefferson and
Chehalis counties was decided by Judge
Linn of the superior court today, in a
friendly suit brought by the two counties
to adjust the matter.
The line was originally located in ter
ritorial days and commenced at the
mouth of the Qneets river and extended
easterlv to the northwestern corner OF
Mason county. Since that time the
mouth OF the river has shifted and the
boundaries of Mason county have been
changed go that the northwest corner is
six miles northwest OF the old location.
The question OF the boundary line be-
tween JeffelsonS Sand Chehalis was taken
up during the last legislature but the
representatives from the two counties
were advised by Assistant Attorney Gen.
eral Falknor, in the first official opinion
given by him, that the dispute could not
be settled by legislation, and that it
should be submitted to the courts and
that the line was probably correctly To-
Gated by drawing line from the former
mouth OF the Queets river directly east
to the Mason county line, regardless OF
the present location of the northwest
corner OF the latter county.
The decision of the court.is as held by
Mr.. Falknor. The original location OF
the river mouth is held to be about one
half mile south OF the present mouth and
the line to run directly east on the town.
ship line between townships % and "a.
This decision agrees with Jefferson
county's contention. About three town.
ships were involved in the controversy.

THE GARDEN OF EDEN.
Its Location n Mystery That VIII
Probably Never he Solved

Its Location Mystery That VIII
Probably Never he Solved
The location Of the earthly paradise
or garden OF Eden Is still a matter OF
dispute among Oricntalists and ScriDtu-
raj scholars OF highest reputation. Some
have endeavored to locate II by the
fruits and mineral productions named
In the Biblical descriptions as they ap-
pear In the second chapter OF Genesis:
others by the rivers mentioned In
verses IL 10 II OF the above mentioned
chapter. The weight OF Investigation
and tradition inclines TO an agreement
that - TiEris and the Euphrates OF
modern geography are the third and
fourth rivers mentioned In the Biblical
description OF the garden. Those who
agree SO far differ widely as TO what
rivers should now be regarded as the
ancient PisOn and Gihon. The Bud
dhistic scholars. although they reject
our Bible IN the greater part. incline TO
the opinion that the Pison Is the sacred
Gauges. and that the Gihon IS non,
other than the Nile. As 10 the last. II
Is altogether probable that they are
correct on that point. because the Blbli-
cal account plainly says that GIhon
"compasseth the whole land OF ETH
opla"
Some Investigations confirm that
Eden was n spot OF comparatively
small area located on the tablelands OF
what is now Armenia, from which rise
the Tigrls and the Euphrates. A few
scholars OF distinction argue that the
Adamic paradise was located I'm Africa
In the vicinity OF the mountains OF the
Moon. Still another school OF oriental
lists locate the celebrated garden In the
vicinity OF the ancient city OF Babylon.
You Will notice. however, that none
OF these theorists has been able to get
the four rivers mentioned In the Bib
Heal account properly located. Neither
have they found place where one
great river separates into four heads"
This being the case. IL is hardly neces-
sary TO add that the exact location OF
Eden Is mystery that Will probably
never be solved.

In volume on volcanoes Professor
Z. Doelter undertakes TO tell WHY VOL

Of snake divinities, which once spread

high and low revere the cobra as they
did thousand years ago. and It is con
sidered heinous crime 10 injure the
reptile or neglect its interests.
In the district Of Travancore alone
there are between 1900 and 10000
Ihrines dedicated exclusively to the
worship OF snakes which possess ex-
tensive and valuable propert IS for
their maintenance and for the cost OF
the ceremonies which the keepers have
10 perform from time 10 time
In these shrines the Hindoos set down
fantastic idols OF serpents on a stone
base, and the shrine IS protected by
mud wall. Householders to assure their
welfare should make offerings OF
dough. milk and cooked rice to the ser
pertine habitues OF the shrine and
place lights and chant hymns IN order
10 be assured OF their favor.
Every morning the king and queen OF
the serpents are bathed, and fruit and
milk are offered 10 them. 10 be followed
at noon by cooked rice and fried grain.
on certain days the idols in grove and

cessiOn 10 the house. where propitia-
tary offerings are made. The presiding
functionary must be the eldest female
member OF the family, who has to prac-
tice celibacy from the day she attains
the position.

core pious folk gather from all parts

ings Of gold. silver. grain. pepper.

things. The cost Of the festivals is de-
frayed by the revenues Of the paddy
