Tempcrature or Mars.

Hitherto the chief obstacle to the
belief that Mars is habitable by any
such beings as inhabit the earth mas
been the extremely low temperature
probably obtaining on the Marian
surface, but Professor Lowell shows
that by taking all the phenomena
into consideration this obstacle may
be removed. Previous calculations
of the temperature have been de-
duced solely from the relative dis
tance of Mars from the sun. and a
recent investigation gave 33 degrees
Fahrenheit as mean temperature Of
the planet He finally deduces, by
taking all known factors into ac-
count, that a mean temperature OF
AZ degrees Fahrenheit Is obtained

GEO. KING DEAD
Died in Tacoma Yesterday from a
Relapse of Diphtheria.

Geo. King, a well-known farmer
of South Kittitas and a son of {.
H. King, died in Tacoma ycstcr
day. where he went a couple of
weeks ago to be treated for re
lapse of diphtheria. After getting
up and around and before he was
well, lie went out to help conduct
the work around his threshing ma
chine and suffered a relapse from
which he never recovered.
Mr.. King grew up to manhood
in Kittitas valley, and we believe he
was born here, though we do not
know. While we do not know, VIC
presume his body will be laid to
rest in Tacoma beside that of his
mother, who died some years ago.

for farm demonstration work. with
S2S.o0 given to the plant bureau,
convertible to this use If emergency
should arise; of this $i54,0o0, $40,-
600 is to be available at once. Judge
Russell of Texas Is largely creditable
for this appropriation. He introduc-
ed bill early in the session in
creasing the appropriation by $780,
600 for demonstration work, and
made an argument before the COM
mittee and showed both the value of
the work done and the need of en-
larging it. DR.. Knapp has said that
with this increase he will be able to
have demonstration farms in every
county of the weevil infested district
of Texas.
The bill also appropriates $780,
600 for the work of exterminating
the little tick. Last year it was only
S65, 600. The increase is evidence
both that the experiments so far
have been successful and that the
campaign is to be carried on along
broader lines hereafter
The committee has made no pro-
vision for the free distribution of
field, flower and garden seeds, but
in the effort to placate congress

No announcement was made as To
man of the commission. but 1t was
learned authoritatively that head

high salaried chairman To serve In

that John r. Stevens. the engineer in

Without definite announcement
thereofe, 1t is regarded as certainty
that Mr.. Stevens viii, be named as

assume his duties as such in con-

eer.
Mr. Shonts retirement does not
come wholly as n surprise. 1t has
been rumored persistently that as
soon as an action had been taken
upon the proposition TO build the
canal by contract Mr.. Shonts would
sever his connection and resume a
calling more congenial to his taste.
Secretary Taft of the war department

that Mr.. Shonts' resignation was vol
