STOCK MEETING AT MOSCOW.
Inland Registered Stock Breeders As
ISOLATION Meet February 80.

MOSCOW. Jan. 9.-The attention of
the stock breeders Of the inland en-
pire is called to the coming annual
meeting Of the Inland Registered Stock
Breeders association on February 8
and 9, and their earnest cooperation in
creating an interest in the work of the
association is solicited. Special effort
on the part of those interested in the
advancement of the live stock industry
is necessary at this time, as two or
three years of more than average sue
cess in grain growing always weakens
the interest of the great body of farm
ers in stock raising. To let stock rails
ing retrograde at this time only aggra-
Yates the difficulties during the period
of depression in grain growing which
almost invariably follows sooner or la

A special apparatus somewhat like a
stock ticker would enable the message
to be picked up on a submarine boat
and printed on tape. In the same
way message could be sent from the
submarine boat and received at shore
station or on the flagship of a fleet. A
more simple way of sending messages
would be by attaching striking gong

Red Lights on Alarm Boxes,

SEATTLE, Jan. 9.-For the purpose
of locating more definitely the fire
alarm boxes and thus give the city
greater protection from fire, City Elec-
trician Joslyn has installed red lights
over six of the boxes as an expert
ment. With the red lights aglow the
boxes can be seen for several blocks
and great deal of trouble in turning
in an alarm averted.
The six lights already put in are onlv
the first of many to be installed within
the next week. AS soon as the city
lighting wires are extended, lights
will be placed over all fire-alarm
boxes in the city .
The same plan will soon be carried
out with the police patrol boxes. Lights
will be put above the patrol boxes to
be operated from the police station.
When an officer at headquarters wishes
a patrolman, the light over that mans
patrol box will be turned on and the
officer called to the booth, where he
may communicate with the police sta
ton by the private telephone system.

GROCERS MUST ACT QUICK
PROPOSITION TO TAX COFFEE IS
BEING AGlTATED IN GER
TAIN QUARTERS.

The proposition to tax coffee does
not lack trade press support, but the
reason is hard to seek If the grocers
want coffee to remain free from tax
they can't say So too quickly Articles
bearing the ear-marks of close re-
lationship are appearing in the news
papers. and there are other pointers
that indicate that somebody is finan-
ciallv interested in the success or the
coffee-taxing movement. One can un-
derstand why large handlers OF COL
fee with big stocks on hand would ap-
prove of the taxing of the bean, al
though their retail customers would
suffer. 1t is a drawback of the GUS
toms system of raising revenue that
speculation is almost certain to ensue
in the markets. affected by proposed
changes of duties, and when financial
considerations intervene, and large
sums of money hang upon the decision
of the government, there will always
be found certain publications willing
to present the views of even the most
sordid manipulators of markets, and
present them as though they were in
dependent editorial opinions.-Mer-

WANT RESERVE OF THEIR OWN

COUNCIL PREPARE AND
FORWARD PETITION.

| COUNCIL, Idaho, JAM AT a meet
ing of the farmers of this section for
the formulation of a petition to be for
warded to Major Fem, forest superin-
tendent for Idaho, asking him to set
aside a strip of ground along the south
border of this valley for the exclusive
ranging of horses and cattle belonging
to the settlers of this vicinity, was
completed. This step has been made
necessary by the action of the sheep
men who have heretofore wholly disre-
garded the rights of the settlers and
have allowed their flocks to range in
discriminatory over the entire section,
thereby denuding the range of susie
nance for the horses and cattle of the
settlers
The conditions in this valley are
such that the sheep industry is not
profitable, consequently the farmers
are compelled to rely upon horse and
cattle raising, and they find it neces-
sary to save the range as much as
possible. The conflict that mas hereto
fore existed has been waged between
sheep and other stockmen. and the set
tiers are now petitioning that the
range be divided A petition embody-
ing these outlines will be presented to
Supervisor Fem for his consideration
within the next few days. It is hoped
entire stock industry will be subserved
The entire community is interested in
this arrangement.

SLAVERY IN CHINA.
Savage Cruelty Melted Out For the
Most Venial Ofenses.


Says an editorial in the Picking
Times: ''The position of the slave girl
in a Chinese home is a very hard one as
rule. These slaves are generally the
property of the wife, and no one inter-
feres with the mistress in her treat
ment Of the poor little things, who will
as often as not be subjected to the
most savage cruelty for most venial Of
lenses. A few weeks ago we recall a
case of great hardship being brought
into the mixed court, Shanghai, in
which a small slave girl had been gag
ged with piece of iron and severely
beaten because, when half starved, she
helped herself to some scraps Of food.
''Our attention has now been called
to piercing cries which emanate from a
house near Canton road and are said to
proceed from little slave girl who for
some reason is beaten almost daily
with thick knotted rope, but for what
reason Is unknown.
''Our informant thinks word in
public, showing that the incident has
been noticed, may suffice to check the
cruelty without lodging a formal COM
plant with the municipal police, which
might make matters worse for the poor
little sufferer in the long run"

Washington senators visited some OF
the hotels and clubs, and they found
that nothing was talked about but haz-
ing trials. Friends of the accused ca
diets were outspoken in their demands
for a congressional investigation
claiming that if one should be begun
the officers and not with the cadets.
Officers to Blame.
They were also claiming that all
the agitation came from the desire of
certain people in the navy department.
Secretary Bonaparte being at the head,
to make record, and so intense is this
desire that higher class midsnipmen
are being made to suffer for it. 1t is
asserted that if the charge of hazing
were sustained, not a single member of
the first, second and third classes
would escape conviction on the charge
of having been participant in nazing
or having failed to report hazing.
So far as young Graves is concerned
it Is said that he is the special object
of Admiral Sands attention because
he was the roommate of Midshipman
Decatur. Because of this he is being
investigated thoroughly and there is a
possibility of his being arrested.
Graves would not talk about his own
case for obvious reasons, beyond ask
ing for special counsel, if he should
be brought to trial for a breach of the
regulations.
Graves is an appointee of former
Senator Turner, Of Washington.

MURDERER LAYS THE
BLAME ON HILDE5RAND FOR
PREDICAMENT.
Repudiates His Former Confession
Made in SeattIe-Pays Penalty on
January 26.

kid" White, the young Seattle muir
dered, sentenced to be hanged at the
penitentiary, on January 26, and re-
ceived Sunday at the prison to await
the fateful day, is particularly sore at
his old pal John Hildebrand, who is
serving a life sentence for participating
in the crime that will send White to
the gallows. White, when first arrest
ed made a confession of his crime, but
now he repudistes this and declares
that Hilderbrand is responsible for nj
present predicament. To Seattle
Post-Intelligencer reporter, Saturday,
just before starting for the penitenti-
airy, White made statement in which
he protests his innocence of the muir
der and throws the blame on Hilder-
brand
Il never killed Mr. Murphy" said
White. If 1 mad done it, would not
want to live They would never have
got me if had killed him, for I would
have turned the gun on myself and
they would have had to bury both of
us about the same time I lied When 1
made that confession Hildebrand
made me do it to shield him. When I
made the confession 1 expected to get
the rope, but I thought there might
be some chance, and 1 took it.
There was a lot of things that were
not brought out at the trial. They
found all my bullets, one of them in
the bar, one in the door, and one hit
Conway in the arm.

Lnh0uchere COvets stays.

l have often thought of getting a pair
of corsets myself, not for the sake of
appearance, but in order to enable me
to dispense with an overcoat and pos
sibly other garments. If you had them
lined with flannel l do not know that
you need wear anything else, except, of
course, for decency and ornament 1
believe the only place where a man (or
woman) really wants clothing is the
small Of the back, the place where you
put horse cloth when your animal is
standing in the rain. With a few thick
nesses Of stuff around that part of your
anatomy you can defy anything but
propriety and convention. Fortified by
stays, some women even manage to
defy them.-London Truth.

The Vocal Cords.

Vocal power depends on the vocal
cords. When they are stretched, sc
narrowing the exit from the air pas
sage, the voice is high pitched. When
they are pulled widely asunder the
voice is deep. When they are faccid
the voice is nearly lost. OF course,
voices vary Individually in pitch and
resonance, but power is always af-
fected by the state of the general
health, and, broadly speaking, loss of
nerve tone is more often responsible
than anything else for vocal weakness.
Fast living, mental strain and similar
conditions occasion such Impairment
Of the nervous system. Breathing foul
air, especially air saturated with to-
bacco smoke, is bad for the cords.

Temperature and Butterflies.

Some remarkably interesting expert,
ments are reported from Zurich show
ing the effect of temperature on the de-
velOpment Of species among butter
flies. The experiments have been con-
tinued through period Of about four
teen years, and 1t is found, for instance,
that xhe common small tortoise shell
butterfly if subjected to warmth of
from 81 degrees to 80 degrees cent?
grade develops into the variety found
in Sardinia, while those bred In tenn
produce the Lapland variety. Similar
ly the application of heat produced the
Sardllian form Of the swallowtail but
terfy and the Syrian form Of the
Apollo.
