HERO OF FORT FISHER"
General Curtis, Who Was Wounded
 Four Times In One Battle.

One of the few surviving generli.s who made conspicuous records in ts :: civil war Is General Newton Mart!,. Curtis of Ogdensburg, \. Y., known as "the hero of Fort Fisher.'

PLAGUE OF cR,ckErs IN IDAHO
Farmers Have Built 120 Miles Of
Fence to Discourage Them.

There is trouble with crickets in
Fremont county. says the Boise
Statesman. The insects have often
bothered farmers over there. but this
year they seem to be more voraci0us
than usual, and the governor has been
appealed to do something to assist the
people in the contest with the invad-
ers. 1t is the intention Of the latter
to visit the country this week on Tues
day and Wednesday O make a personal
investigation OF the situation.
The state has no funds with which
to assist in the campaign. but the gov
ernor has asked the department OF ag-
riculture to send men to the scene to
give what aid they can.
Some years ago the government sent
MIR. Simpson to that section to inves-
tigate the pest. He found the crickets
hatch out in the sand beds in the vi
entity Of Market lake, but no means
has been found OF eradtcating them.
This year the insects nave started
on a march in force from their sand
hills across the fields OF the Snake
valley in Fremont county and moth
ing has sufficed to stay their course
1t Is said the farmers have built 12C
miles of fence to turn the tide but
this has not proved sufficient. This
fencing was not all done this year
however.

MAKES REPORT ON THE RIVER
Portland Chamber Of Commerce Re.
views the Work.

The transportation committee Of the
Portland Chamber OF Commerce gives
a comprehensive review Of the work
Of the Cello ship canal and the work
OF removing distractions from the Co.
lumbia river. as follows:
The amount Of money now on hand
and available. including the 5000 900 to
be provided for in the sundry civil bill,
Is $435,000. There is outstanding
against this amount $4,000, and the
amount required to complete contracts
now In force. which is approximately
$2S4,OOO.
The contract for the removal OF the
distractions at Three Mile rapids will
require another low water season. and
1t is hoped the work viii be finished
about next December.
The contract for the basin and lock
at the Cello end OF the canal stipu-
lates for its completion by January /,
1907. but 1t Is probable that It will
take several months more to do tn.
work. With annual appropriations OF
$500, 900. it will require eight or ten
years to complete the work. but II the
whole amount OF the estimated cost
We're available, the work could be
completed in about three years.
! From the foregoing facts. one is
{ about as well qualified as another to
predict the date OF completion. II we
cease working for appropriations for
this purpose, it's completion will be
delayed indefinitely. We believe that
when the people generally realize the
comparatively small amounts appro-
priated for river and harbor improve.
ments and the great waste and loss
both direct and indirect, caused by de
lay. they will demand that appropria
lions be made in sufficient amounts e
property care for and complete all ap.
proved projects.
There is no reason why this should
not be done. There is no purpose To-
which money Is expended by tn
United States that does so much goot
to such large number Of people Thu
United States has taken jurisdiction
over the navigable waters and harbor
and II is In duty bound to improve
them

ETIQUETTE AMONG PEERS.
Rules Laid Down to Preserve the Dignity of Their Chamber.

Rales Laid Down to Preserve the
 Dignity of Their Chamber.
 Besides insisting upon all due respect to themselves the peers suffer no dis respect to the stately gilded chamber in which they are accustomed to assem- ble. Even when parliament Is not in session none but members are allowed to be covered there. Not even the eldest son of any peer may wear his hat In the room. Neither is any person to stay there, nor any attendant on any nobleuan but while he brings in bis lord. and then he Is to retire himself.'
 In 1TOS official notice was taken of the fact that of late the doorkecpers have frequently presumed to come within the doors when the house Is sit ting. and 1t was therefore ordered that for tue future this liberty be forbid. den. Another point in which the peers are scrupulous to preserve their dig nity Is revealed in the standing order with reference to conferences between the two houses.
 It sets forth that the place Of our meeting with the lower house upon conference is usually the painted cham be-. where they are commonly before we come and expect our leisure. We are to come thlther in whole body and not some lords scattering before the rest, which both takes from the gravity of the lords and besides may hinder the lords from taking their proper places. We are to sit there and be covered, but they are not at any committee or conference either to be covered or sit down in our presence unless 1t be some infrm person and thIt by connlvance in a corner out Of sight. to sit, but not to be covered.

Trick of the Drug Trade.

Never ask for the copy of a pre- scrlption at the time you buy the medi- cine" said the dyspeptic looking man. "In nine out of ten drug stores they will tack 10 or 15 cents to the regular price of the medicine if you do. That of course is contrary to professional etiquette. Druggists are not supposed to charge extra for furnishing a copy of a prescription. If you will walt a few days and ask for 1t, unaccompa- nled by a bottle of medicine, they won't have the nerve to do it, but when the two are pared together they can gain some compensation for their extra work and the loss of a pos slble customer without anybody being the wlser."-New York Press.

Are Large Houses vuIsart

Are large houses vulgar? Certainly a parvenu who should build himself a house the size of Chatsworth or Raby would be vulgar, as lacking a sense of proportion in a matter of taste. The inheritors of such places are of course not vulgar to live in them, though they are sometimes most unfortunate. Enor- nous houses survive the time of neces- sary retainers and . warlike state, They are useless for all modern pur- poses except display; pathetic, then, when old, they are certainly vulgar when new.-G. s.

DIVERS PARALYSIS.
This Disease ARocts It's victims Only

This Disease Affects Its Victims Only
 Out of Water.
 "Divers' paralysis" said the second mate, proves homeopathy to be 8 fact, Homeopathy says that like cures like. For instance, If you have fever take something that produces a fever, and you will recover. Well, divers pa- ralysls backs up this claim.
 "The disease afliets the pearl divers of Ceylon and the sponge divers of the Mediterranean. It attacks only the best men, the ones who go down deep est and. stay longest, and It Is sup posed to be caused by the swift changes from one pressure of water to another that the diver undergoes when he pops up to the surface.
 This paralysis makes the diver quite helpless out of water. Yet under water It disappears altogether. The water causes divers paralysis. The water in truly homeopathic manner takes every yeStige of the disease away.
 "To the oyster beds of Ceylon and to the sponge fisheries of the Mediter- ranean many of the best divers are carried like infants. Helpless as logs, they He in a row on the decks In the sunshine till their turn comes to de scend. Then in Ceylon the pearl diver Is carried to the boats edge. He sits there, his hands on his knees, as if lost In thought (he is getting his breath, and suddenly-pop-he rolls awkwardly into the water. And the instant he disappears all hls agility returns to him, and as easily as a boy would dive five feet after white stone he dives over hundred feet aft CT the hidden pearls
 With the paralyzed sponge diver t is the same story. Only, since he holds a heavy stone In his arms to bear him down to the bottom, he must be car. ried to the boats side and dropped over bodily.
