According to Warden Parker's let
ter none of the convictions were from

BOYCOTT NOT EFFECTIVE.
WalIa Walla News Dealers Will Han
die Blacklisted Magazines.

Walla Walla newsdealers who dis
continued handling many of the lead
ing magazines several weeks ago, un-
der threats of being boycotted by the
labor unions, becauze the publications
were considered unfair to union labor,
have placed the Objectionable periodi-
Gals on sale again, says the Walla
walla statesman.
Among the magazines objected to
by the labor unions were McClure's'
the Ladies Home Journal, the Satur-
day Evening Post, the Delineator and
Designer and about 10 other leading
publications. Copies of the October
number of these magazines were con-
spicuously displayed in front of one OF
the news stands this week.
"The newsdealers have agreed to
handle the magazines again despite
the objections of members of the local
Typographical union, who 1t seems
started the movement" said one
dealer this morning 1--WE found,
from the news companies, that of
every city Of any prominence in the
northwest where the unions demanded
OF newsdealers that they discontinue
handling the magazines objected to-
walla Walla dealers were the only
ones who paid any attention to the
| demands.
Since we began handling the maga'
zines again, several union men have
come in and said they would moi
trade with us. Our decision to handle
the magazines again is in no respect
defiance to the union mems demands
but on the contrary, 1t was matter
| OF dizziness with US. Our customer
demanded that we handle the maga
zines and. rather than lose much o
their trade, we agreed to put the mag

ARE RULED BY EARTH DOCTORS.
Queer Things About Location of
Houses and Graves in China.

The abandonment of cities, town or
localities illustrates the peculiar in1u-
ence among the Chinese of their geo.
mancers, or earth DOCTORS" as they
call them. These fortune %tellers, with
a great deal Of rigmarole, pass upon
the luck or unfavorableness of a spot
whether it be selected as a place on
which to build a house or dig a grave,
says the Chautauquan.
The entire city of Pekin was moved
by the first emperor of the Mongol
dynasty because his "earth doctors"
told him that bad luck was associated
with the old site and that if he wish
ed to establish his dynasty, he must
build a new capital. The modern city
OF Pekin was the result. And so the
cities and towns ravaged by the Taip-
ings over fifty years ago have never
recovered because the Chinese believ-
ed that their luck had been spoiled
and the population has built new
towns and new cities rather than
tempt fate by rebuilding the old ones.
me Chinese will abandon houses al.

NANCY is wrong, and in almost every
city you will find some quarter vacat-
ed and abandoned because it is said
to be unlucky.

FRIcHTENs HIS BROTHER RATS.
Rodents VIII Not Associate With
BeIIed COMPANION.

One of the old school-book stories
OF another generation told about the
ruse OF a porter, who caught a rat
and fastened a bell to it's neck. When
1t was turned loose again and ran
through the building all other rats
left In fright at the strange member
OF their species that was trying to
associate with them.
The ~janitor of a bank in Cleveland
followed the idea in this old story,
and 1t works out just as the school
books say it did. Traps set every
night were filled with the rodents,
and yet there seemed TO be no end to
their ravages. One morning the jani-
tor chloroformed a big fellow and fas
n a wire loop securely to it's neck.
To this loop were attached three
tiny tinkling bells. Mr.. Rat was re-
vlved by being placed before an cleo
trio fan and then allowed to go again.
His bells have since been heard tink-
ling behind the walls, but he Is a lone
some wanderer through what was
once a populous rat city. All the rats
have left this building and he Is mon
arch OF all he surveys. Probably he
would prefer to dwell In the midst
OF alarms" again rather than "reign
In this desolate place"

though 1t can be modified to fit arms
also. The operation will be obvious.
The device consists of an open rec
tangular framework, within which are
suspended a series of light vanes
hinged along one edge of the open
framework in such a manne as to be
susceptible of setting themselves with
the current Of water going through
them as the legs are drawn forward or
bent for the stroke. During the back
stroke or thrust the vanes will close
and form a plane normal to the move
ment OF the limb. A framework Of
of this kind is supported from
each limb of the swimmer, to which If
is secured by bands or straps. certain
portions of the frame being made
buoyant to an extent sufficient to sus-
tain n weight Of the device in the
water. This constitutes the primary
element of the attachment, the form
and n of the attachment being
modified to the requirements of arm
and leg. 70 supplement the leg
movement with the instep action of
the foot, the vane frame is pivoted TO
the leg attachment by a system of
parallel links, which link motion is
connected by a light rod to the toe of
a sandal or shoe on the foot. The feet.
instead of acting merely as paddles.
are utilized to impart considerable
muscular power to propel the body
forward, the legs being kept merely
far enough apart to avoid striking the
frames together.

Measuring Sea Depths by Electricity.

Measuring Sea Depths by Electricity.
For ascertaining the depth of the
sea without the use of the sounding
lead or other devices, the Norwegian
engineer, Berggraf, has invented a
unique method. He sends sound
waves perpendicularly into the water
and measures the time they require
to return to the surface after having
been rejected from the bottom of the
sea. The speed Of the sound in wa.
ter being known, the length of the
space passed through is Immediately
determined; one-half of it is the
depth of the water. The device con.
sists of a transmitter, a receiver and
a timepiece. The electromagnetic
transmitter sends to the bottom of
the sea a series of deep sounds,
which, upon their return, are taken
up by the ~microphone. A listening
device or receive r reproduces the
sounds. Naturally, the sound is ex-
ceedingly weak upon it's return, so
that it is hardly preceptible, but it is
rendered distinctly audible by the
vibration of the receiver or ear-piece
reinforced by a sounding tube.

Horse Shod With Gold.

In j. F. Hogan's History of the
Irish In Australia" a number Of
strange freaks of suddenly enriched
lucky gold diggers are recorded, but
one Of the queerest Is told Of q
Scotchman named Andrew Cameron,
who died in Melbourne the other day
at the age of 81. He was returned in
1856 by a goldfields constituency to
the first parliament of Victoria, and
the story goes that he rode 100 miles
down to Melbourne on a horse shod
with gold. The golden shoes re-
manned on the horse for three days.
Then the native ~frugality of the Gale
DOMAIN asserted itself, and they were
replaced by baser metal.
