OBJECTS To TAXES
NORTHERN PACIFIC MAKESST
ling CLAIMS.
Says It's Right-0f.Vay, Tracks, De.
pots, Shops, ETC., from Lake
Superior to Puget Sound Are
Exempt From ASseSSment-prO-
test TO Lincoln County Board.

Davenport, Wash. Aug. 9.-The
Northern Pacific Railway Company q
agent made the astounding statement
to the Lincoln county board of equal
izstion yesterday that the company q
right Of way from Lake Superior to
Puget Sound is EXEMPT from taxation.
This protest was signed by Jay Sedg-
wick, assistant tax commissioner, and
was presented by w. G. Smith. The
board has taken no action in the mat
ter. The company makes no demand
for the taxes in years past, which, If
it's contention is true, would possibly
have to be refunded. The remarkab BILE
protest Affects every county in every
state from the lakes to the Pacific
ocean.

Tracing Back a Common Saving.

It is a curious bit of literary exercise to take a common saying and trace 1t back to its origin. Take the common saying, for instance, "All that glitters Is not gold" It Is found in current literature everywhere and in a dozen different forms. Dryden renders it, "All, as they say, that glitters is not gold" Spenser says, Gold all is not that doth golden seem." Lydgate has the same idea in the words, All is not gold that outward sheweth bright" Chaucer expresses it in somewhat diff ferent phraseology. Middleton has 1t, ''All is not gold that glisteneth," and Shakespeare says, "All that glistens is not gold.' Go a little farther back, however, and the same expression is found is the monkish collection of proverbs, and there is no doubt if a classical scholar were to set to work with the determination to hunt the proverb down, no matter how long it took, he would find it in Latin, Greek and most other ancient and dead lan- guages. It is a natural outgrOwth of sarcasm as applied to fictitious show and is no doubt as old as the science of metal working

Kind WnRGa.

As the breath of the dew on the ten der plant, they gently fall upon the dropping heart, refreshing its withered tendrils and soothing it's burning woes Bright oases they are in lifes great desert. Who can estimate the bangs they have alleviated or the good works they have accomplished? Long after they are uttered do they reverberate in the souls inner chambers and sing low, sweet, liquid strains that quell all the raging storms that may have be- fore existed. And, oh, when the heart Is sad and, like 9 broken harp, the sweetest chords of pleasure cease to vibrate, who can tell the power of one kind word? One little word of tender ness gushing in upon the soul will sweep the long neglected chords and awaken the most pleasant strains: Kind words are like jewels in the heart, never to be forgotten, but per haps to cheer up their memory long, sad life, while words of cruelty are like darts in the bosom, wounding and leaving scars that will be borne to the grave by their victims,

Entrappinx Marine Monsters.

On the northern coast of Norway the fishermen get al yearly harvest from the whales which stray into the har- bors. At certain localities, where the bays are almost landlocked, lofty stands are erected, similar to the otter outlooks on the north Pacific, and when a school is sighted scores of boats put out and. by the simple process of driving, hundreds of the oil producing cetaceans are entrapped. The Farce islands are famous for this method of whaling. One of the largest catches ever made was in Hvarfiord, Iceland, where eleven hundred were driven ashore. The blackfsh, or whales, come down the Atlantic coasts from the north, encounter shallow water, then follow 1t along and are naturally led into the cul-de-sac await ing them. Here the boats easily sur round and drive the whales in.

 The 9th of June was Sunday, and two solid pages of the diary are de- voted to it's incidents. MT. Adams was unwell in the morning. 1T rest ed hut poorly last night. Was anxious about my return, and about the long journey before me, of nearly three hundred miles to Casco Bay on horse- back"
 In little bed room at Shaler's tav- ern he found few good books, and among them "the 9th volume of Dr. Samuel Clarke's Sermons. '' This he took for his Sabbath reading. His diary contains the outline of one ser. mon Ion the fundamental doctrines of Christianity" of which he gives an outline From another sermon,
 'on the reward of justice,' he quotes vigorous passage, Ion the duty of justice to the public. '' The points in the passage are, "that men are under the very same obligations, not to wrong the community, as they are not to violate any mans private rights or property; that the reason why many who are very just in their dealings between man and man, but are very fraudulent and rapacious with regard to the public, is because, in the latter case. it is not so obvious on whom the injury falls, as in the case of private wrongs. But if the injury is clear and certain, the un- certainty of the persons upon whom the injury falls in particular, or the number of persons among whom the damage may chance to be divided, alters not at all the nature of the crime itself'' ''
 Having analysed two sermons at his hotel, MT. Adams "went to meet ing in the morning-tumbled into the first pew I could find, and heard a pretty sensible Yalensian Connecti- cuteDsian preacher. At meeting l found pr. Elliot Rawson, an old school fellow, who invited me to dine. Went to the meeting with him ill the afternoon, and heard the finest singing 1 ever heard in my life.

Six or eight more stinging cuts were enough for Jim. He promised on his word of honor never to raise his hand against his wife again. He was then handed a third dipper of water, and when he refused It the switch came down over his back, and the woman said:
 You've got to learn to like the taste of water, and you've got to learn here and now. Your children had to go barefoot all last winter because you had to have your whisky. Drink it down or you'll get another dusting."
 Jim managed to drink the water, and was then asked for his promise not to touch intoxicating drinks for one year.
 "But what am goin' to do when a feller offers to treat?" he protested.
 You are going to remember this" !" she replied as she gave him half a dozen cuts and brought a fresh chorus of howls.
 He promised. Aunt Hannah went into the house and wrote out pledge. It was a pledge embodying four or five promises, and after he had taken an- other drink from the dipper Jim put his name to it. The hired man was then called up to sign as a witness and to pry open the jaws of the trap, and Jim went limping away.
 That day marked an epoch in Jim Peters life. Within a week he had work He turned to water like duck. He administered no more thrashings to his wife. In fact, before year was up he was spoken of as sober, steady man, and had credit at the stores for the first time in his life, Plenty of people asked Aunt Hannah how she did it, and her answer was alike to all:

Gassenheimer Case Goes Over Again
for Week.
The third trial Of the case of Samuel Cas-
senheimer, accused of having received
tickets embezzled from the Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad Company, knowing them to
have been embezzled, set conditionally for
today in Criminal Court No. l. was post
poned until next Monday, at which time.
Justice Wright indicated, the hearing will
positively proceed.
When the case was called Attorney Henry
E. Davis, representing the defendant, eX-
planned that he would be utterly unable to
go on with the trial today. He added that
his physical condition is such that he could
not sit in a court room for two or three
days. Counsel said he much desired a
sEert delay.
Justice Wright wanted to know II Mr..
Davis had been confined to his home since
last week, or if he had been attending to
business.
attending to business, but did so only by
stress of circumstances. He went on to
say that he would not ask for delay If he
could not do so conscientiously. He was
out of the house today, he declared. solely
because of the appointment in court.
Il am advised that there are other coun-
sci representing the defendant in this
cause" Justice Wright remarked.
THAT is not so,'' was the answer of At
torney Davis.
After further colloquy the Gassenheimer
case was passed until next Monday when,
the court said, it will be tried.
