Charles Franzen, who plead guilty

SMALL BOY SHOOTS BROTHER
Little Roy Peterson, 3-Year-Old Son
of Mr.. and Mrs. II. Peterson,
Fatally Shot.
(From the Yakima Herald.)

(From the Yakima Herald.)
One of the saddest accidents that
ever came to light transpired in the
the Mckee valley, eighteen miles
from town, at Z o'clock Monday
morning, at the home of Rudolph
Peterson. AS result of this acct
dent little Roy Peterson, bright and
rosy-cheeked, lies in room Z of the
Clogg building near deaths door
with bullet hole in his back, fired
from a pistol in the hands of his old
er brother, lad of not years.
Mrs. Peterson was cooking break
fast at her home about Z o'clock
Monday morning, while in the dining
room sat her husband with the hired
man waiting for the meal to be
brought in. They had not noticed
Max and Roy, their two little boys
who were playing in the bedroom.
Suddenly the older boy was heard
to exclaim Stand still while l shoot
you, Roy" and Immediately fol-
lowed the report of the pistol. Mr..
Peterson ran to the room and found
Roy writhing in agony on the floor.
Investigation resulted in disclosing
the fact that the little fellow had
been shot in the back by a 32-caliber
revolver, the property of Mr.. Peter
son. The pistol had been lying on
the dresser and while the children
were playing in the room, Max
noticed the pistol and decided to
have some fun, not realizing, Of
course, the probable outcome. He
will not be years of age until next
May.
AS soon as Mr.. and Mrs. Peter
son became fully aware Of the
gravity of the situation, they at once
made preparation to drive into the
city with their child. They reached
here about 10 o'clock in the morning
and at once consulted a physician.
The encouragement received was not
the kind hoped for. An examination
of the wound by the doctor revealed
the fact that the bullet had entered
just above the right kidney, pene-
trated the bowels and would proba-
bly, prove fatal.

At the Orpheun.

Lee Morris company of players
at the Orpheum have again added
to their popularity by their produc-
ton of the beautiful drama Halle
Kirk" Without doubt this is in
deed one of the best plays produced
by this company. The story of this
beautiful drama was told to the life
by the actors and actresses. Miss
Walton in the title role gave an ar
tistic performance and won the SYM
pathy of the audience Her best
scene is in the last act. where she
sings the old song TO recall the old
mans memory, and it was hard to
find dry eye in the audience Next
to Miss Walton deserving of special
mention is Mr.. Fox as Dunston
Kirk. This actor again demonstrated
his capabilities as a finished actor.
Charles Dey deserves much praise
for his handling of the difficult role
of Aaron Rodney. the rejected lover
of Halle. Marion Dunn rendered
her part. Lady Travers. in a forcible
and finished manner. Miss Plummer,
who always gives us something good,
more than came up to expectations
as Mercy Kirk. Arthur Elton as
Arthur Carringford looked and
acted the part with much force.
Lilly Hughes as Dolly was again
much in evidence and her scene with
Hal Barber as Pitticus Green, were

serve the highest praise. Lee Nor

course has the house with him all
the time. We must congratulate
Mr.. Morris for the splendid perform
ance of difficult play.

Governor MACON in Cuba.

Havana.-Sunday. Gov. Charles f.
Magoon's first day as governor OF
Cuba, passed busily but quietly. The
palace was singularly still compared
with the eventful days of the last re-
gime. Governor Magoon said to the
Associated Press that he was looking
forward with confidence to a peaceful
administration. He expressed the
warmest appreciation of the work ac'
complished by Messrs. Taft and Ba-
con. both in the pacfication of the ISL
and and laying the foundation for a
smooth and successful system of pro-
visional government. The governor
sees no reason to anticipate further
sudden changes in the situation or
any especially sensational incidents.

WHAT WE OWE TO INSECTS.
They Are of the Greatest Benefit to
Growing Flowers.

Prof. Darwin said that II Il had not
been for insects we should never have
had any more imposing or attractive
flowers than those of the elm, the hop
and the nettle. Lord Avebury COM
pares the work of the insect to that of
the florist. He considers that just as
the florist has by selection produced
the elegant blossoms of the garden, so
the insects. by selecting the largest
and brightest blossoms for fertiliza-
ton, have produced the gay flowers of
the field. Prof. Plateau. of Client, has
carried out a series of remarkable ex-
periments on the ways of insects visit
ing flowers He considers that they
are guided by scent rather than by
color. and in the connection he is at
variance with certain British natural
lists. Whatever may be the attraction
In flowers to insects-as yet, 1t ap-
pears undefned-it is certain that the
latter visit freely all blossoms alike,
making no distinction between the
large, bright-colored ones and the less
conspicuous blossoms like those of the
currants, the lime, the planetree. the
nettle and the willow.

The relation between the blood aud

treatment. Their double action, on the

Quail starved to death by thousands

necessary. The birds for this pur-

900 have been captured in Alabama
and the southwest. where they still
occur in abundance, and have been
shipped north for breeding. Even
this supply is quite inadequate. and
may not last long. The quail, says
Country Life in America. is perhaps
our most popular game bird, and c
market will be found for all that can
be produced. Complete success has
been had in raising them on a small
scale. Why should not some one so
into the business on such scale that
he could turn out 100000 quail per

Sir James Crichton- Browne, the en-

newspaper press a certificate as an
important safeguard of the general

roding egotism and gives a worldwide

can 1t be disputed that the press also
furnishes an easily digestible intel
lectual pabulum." Sir James likewise
speaks with specialists authority.

many man has been saved from
melancholy and faulty by his daily
papers," and concludes: Suppress

lenge an expert on his own ground
But before the newspaper cure is
widely applied in our sanitariums. We
should be glad to have the opinion of
local alienists on a few specific points,
says the New York Post. Does, for

steadying effect for young girls to ven
tilate their blighted state and house
wives their MARTIAL grudges in col

Sir James seems to regard the press
as bulwark against depression mere

also abnormal symptoms; and it is
possible that yellow journalism CON
tributes jrst little too much to the

A Man Of 70 After Finding Coffee Hurt

When a man has lived to be 20 years

him like knot on a tree, chances are

But occasionally the spirit of youth

A notable fact about the vision of
insects and one which it may be sup
posed must largely influence their
view of the external world is the
number of facets or lenses in COM
pound eyes. A German naturalist, X.
Linemann, has been painstaking
enough to count the number OF facets
in the eyes of no fewer than $50 spe
cies of beetle. He finds that in the
same species and sex the number
increases with the size of the body
There is usually no permanent differ
ence between the sexes as to the
number of facets. Occasionally, how
ever. the difference is marked, as in
the case of lampyris splendidula. in
which the male has $500 and the fe-
male 800. One species. says the Phil
adelphia Record, is noted which has
the extraordinary number of $4,000
facets in it's eye. The number of
facets is greater in the rapidly NOV
ing active forms than in the more
sluggish species.
