KISSING CUSTOMS.
At Hungerford Newcastle-on- Tyne,

at Hungerford, Newcastle-on- Tyne, @ Maidenhead and Halmagen.
 The charming country town of Hun gerford, in Berkshire, has an annual Kissing day each April, when it cele- brates it's Hocktide festival. Then cer- tain duly appointed officials hold a court, collect the tithes, and claim a kiss from the woman of each house they have to visit during the cere- naony. The two fortunate officials thus appointed are known as "tutty men, or tithe men,, and usually there is no small competition for the honor among the eIigibles of Hungerford. The custom is hundreds of years old, and neither husband nor wife, as a rule, objects to the advent of the tutty men.. with the inevitable result.
 ~ Once every five years the good town of Newcastle on Tyne has been in the habit of holding a festival known as "barge day" on which day the mayor and corporation go down to the river in a fine state barge to claim the rights of the town to certain dues at an appointed spot. Then the pPoces- sion returns up the river to we'll

always accompanied by a large crowd of curious people. These help him, or think they do, when he has to climb over houses which stand in his path, or to get through windows under which the bounds pass. Also, whne the party meets any man by chance during its progress. it proceeds grave ly to "bump" that individual; but if the person met should be lady, she is given the choice as to whether she will be bumped" or kissed.
 Nor is uor own country the only one with such compulsory kissing cere- | monies. Halmagen, in Austria, has an annual fair on St. Theodore's day at which every man present has the right to claim one lady and to kiss her with out her having any right to object. This strange custom is the outcome of raid which was once made on the town by Turkish brigands, who carried off all the women as caotives. But band of men traveling in the district chanced to meet the captors and forced them to give up their vic tins, who were then kindly, escorted to their homes and friends.

GUESTS OF JUDGE cLtAVE1AND
Newspapermen Enjoy Pleasant Dinner
 at the Tontine.

at the Tontine.
 Judge Livingston w. Cleaveland handel down his last decision in the probate court last evening, It was a decision that in importance far eclipsed any others he has made, not excepting those in the Plant will or Bennett will cases. The decision was that the codi- eil in the will of the late Willie Shake speare providing funds for dinner to the New Haven reporters covering pro- bate court news in the time of Judge Cleaveland was according to law, and should be carried out. AS no one was living to perform this pleasant cour- tesy, the judge took 1t upon himself, and last night there was something do- ing at the Tontine. There were duck courses, turkey courses, squab courses, race courses and many other courses, and all were fine and greatly enjoyed, constituting, as the judge said, one of the pleasantest little dinners in his memory As mark of esteem the newspapermen presented to their host a written remembrance of their happy af- flliattons in the past and of their sir cere esteem. At the close of the din- ner it was suggested that although the judge is not now on the bench he could hand down another decision of the same kind any old time without fear of it being overruled. Those present beside the host were Charles w, Tut tie of the Union, William w, Barry of the Register, Sylvester Chase of the Leader, Fred Baker of the Palladium and Arthur J. Sloane of the Courier.

Ten Years in Pen.

A special from Grangeville, ldaho'
SAYS: Ten years in the state peniten-
tiary is the punishment imposed on
Thomas Eagan for the attempted
murder of Hilda Carlson and her
small brother, Judge Steel pronounce
ing sentence today. 1t is possible that
Eagan will appeal to the supreme
cort. but this is not certain.
Eagan is a middle aged railroad
contractor and for more than year
he had been counting pretty Hilda
Carlson, who lives on n farm near
Cottonwood. She Tilted him for a
younger man, which so angered
Eagan that he became slightly intoxi-
Gated and rode out to the girls home
and began firing at her. Three bull
lets struck her, one in the back of the
head, which made an ugly wound.
Hilda's three-year-old brother, who
was lying on a couch, was shot
through the groin, sustaining a wound
which will leave its mark for life.
Both Hilda and her brother recovered
and testified against Eagan, who
pleaded emotional insanity.

Hogs TO Market.

John Shaw, the valley farmer.
brought to the Grande Ronde Meat
company a wagon load of hogs
which weighed 1850 pounds and
brought s107.25. There were but
five hogs in the lot, three of them
weighing $50 pounds and the other
two Weighing $50 each. The price
received was 6a cents per pound.
While this is not an extraordinary
weight for hogs, these were very
young ones and their rapid accumula-
ton in size is attributed to the fact
that they were fed on black barley.
which Is regarded as a close substi-
tute for corn for hog feed. UP to
the present year this kind of barley
was grown only by Mr.. Shaw and
one or two other farmers OF this val
ley. This year black barley is being
much more extensively produced
many other farmers having sown
patches exclusively for hog feed.-La

Wolves XIII Deer.

Deer hunting in Douglas county,
which was so good during the season
of 1906, seems to be very poor from
the reports of the first month and
halfs hunt. Where there were scores
of deer last year there are now hard
ly any. The cause seems to be due to
the depredations of wolves, which for
several years have been increasing
rapidly despite the bounty of $3.50
per scalp offered by this county.
Last winter the snow in the noun
tains was very deep and this spring
the canyons of the Cascade range and
spurs are dotted with the bleaching
skeletons of hundreds of deer. The
wolves hunt their prey all times Of
year but are worse in winter when
other food is scarce and the deer bad
ly hampered in flight. The wolves
down the finest bucks as well as the
poorest does.-Roseburg Review.

To Grow Straw for Paper.

The Lebanon paper mills are en-
deavoring to introduce a new variety
of wheat in this part Of the state. The
wheat is known as Velvet Chaff and
is said to yield crop Of grain of a
good quality and to be strong, long
straw. The paper mill is interested In
this kind of grain in that the straw
is better and longer for making paper.
1t has been used around Woodburn
for the past few years and is strong
favorite with the growers there. The
paper mills will sow a field of 1t on
their ground and will sell seed to
farmers who desire to try it,-Leb-

Why Dan Kelly Lost Out.

Dan Kelly, the Baker City foot
racer, who met defeat at jamestown,
writes to friends the cause Of his de-
feat was that he went south too soon
and was weakened by the climate be-

climate did not have a change to get
