cred by several eye-witnesses to have
been irrational" that an uncle of the
defendant was insane; that Mrs. Har-
ry Thaw passed a note to her husband
during dinner at the Cafe Martin the
evening OF the tragedy; that District
Attorney Jerome has this note and re

Threat Made a Long Time Ago.
Sc far, indeed, had Thaw's defense
that at the close of the days proceed
ings the announcement was made by
Deimas that either the wife or the
mother of the defendant would be the
first witness on the stand today. The
threat against 1haw's life was made
two years and a half before the trag-
edy occurred District Attorney Jer-
ONE objected to the introduction of
the evidence declaring the defense was
not understood by him to be one Of
self -defense.
FOeman Worthy of His Steel.
Delmas replied that the defense in
tended to take advantage of every le-
gal defense allowed in the state of
New York. be it insanity, self-defense
or any other legitimate justification of
the taking of a human life. This was
but the first of a series of interesting
tits between the district attorney and
Delmas during the day, and it was
agreed that Jerome had found Thaw's
new leading counsel a foeman worthy
of his best efforts. Delmas always
spoke of Jerome as "the learned dis
trict attorney"

Nursery Stock Inspection.

One of the most important measures
enacted by the recent Legislature was
Finsted's bill regulating the inspection
of nursery stock. The provisions of the
bill are as follows:
"The Finsted bill, which is now law
makes the sale, barter or gift of any fruit
that is affected with the Goblin moth OF
San Jose scale, misdemeanor punish
able by the destructin of the infected
fruit and with fine of S25 to $500, or
or up to 80 days in Jail, or both these last
penalties. The fact that the fruit shows
worm holes or the San Jose scale, is drima
facie evidence of it's infection. The act
does not prohibit the utilization of the
fruit on the premises where grown, for
any of the fruit by-products, such as Jelly,
vinegar fruit butter or any other such
product. But it is severe law, in that
no warning is to be given, the mere fact
that fruit is diseased being of itself deem
ed sufficient cause for punishment of
the seller.
The bill further provides that nursery
firms who have complied with the state
horticultural laws in the inspection of
their nurseries, or the nurseries from
which they procure their stock may have
duplicate certificates of the health Of
their stock, upon the payment of 81 for
each certificate Any violation Of the
law, IN the selling of the stock that is
not inspected or having clean bill of
health, is made misdemeanor, with
fine of $25 to $500.
Any nursery stock may be brought
into the state without having been
grown in an inspected nursery, provided
the shipper shall submit the stock to a
qualified state Inspector. who will give
him certificate of health, charging
the shipper for the inspection.
A bond is required from both the
horticultural Inspector and all the dep
uty inspectors, the bonds to be approved
by the board and kept on file."

Idaho Coal Lands

A recent order from President Roose-
welt, recalling the previous order with
drawing all public coal land from sale or
entry, will effect Idaho as we'll the other
coal states of the west.
1t is learned that there is only small
part of Idaho that is recognized by the
interior department as coalbearng
land on the Wyoming line, in Fremont
and perhaps Bingham counties. This
land, it is understood, was affected by
the order withdrawing it from entry
But now the prohibition is rem owed, and
any one with the price can get coal land
if he can find it.
There are other coal desposts in the
state, which have not been so recogniz
ed by the general land Office. There is
some excellent coal in Lemhi county
and in Idaho county some promising
shales have been found that are believed
to be indicative of coal measures. These
were not included in the prohibition, so
will not be affected by the release order
Coal lands are classified according to
their proximity to the railroad. Lands
within 20 miles of a railroad can be
bought for $40 an acre, while those more
than 20 miles distant are held for $40 per
acre. The Fremont county and Idaho
county coal measures are far enough
from railroads to sell for dollar an acre
if the same proportion were carried out,
bnt the law does not make any further
reduction for distance.

Water for Six Thousand Acres

Six thousand acres of fertile sagebrush
land on the north side of Snake River be
tween Blackfoot and American Falls
will be supplied with water in the next
month or so, and will be ready for farm
ing. The big American Falls Canal &
Power company, of which J. Fl. Shreck
of this city is secretary and general
manager, and which will ultimately re-
claim 10000 acres under the Carey act,
announces that the first 5000 acres will
be under cultivation this year. The
exact date of turning the water into the
immense canals has not yet been fixed.
A labor shortage and consequent diff
Guilty on the part Of the company to
hurry work on the canals, may delay
the date somewhat, but not too late for
the irrigation season.
The Idaho Irrigation company, which
is taking out the project from Wood
river, below Haley, is now working 100
men, and Colonel Miller authorizes the
statement that they are ready to use
200 more men. The Twin Falls north
side project is also said to be about
ready for large force Of workmen on
it's canals.
The article in the Boise Statesman
few days ago, about the proposed Per-
sian colonists for some irrigated section
of Idaho has brought several inquiries
to the commissioner. The Persians are
from the irrigated valleys of their part
of Asia, and would be at home in such
country as south Idaho. They are
Christians, and Of the same Aryan stock
as the Caucasians. not of the Tartar or
Mongol people. .--Pocatello Tribune.

New War Story

A Southern man figures that the Con
federates did great damage to the Union
Army at any event.
Fred Raymond spent several months
among the picturesque people of the
Ozark Mountains while writing his
great comedy "Old Arkansaw," and
the success with which his play was
met in that section last spring Is consid-
cred by him the highest compliment
that could be paid to a playwright
The scenes of the play are LAID near
Rogers last summer, jumping from Kan,
sas City, a distance of 300 miles, to reach
the town. 1t goes without saying that
they were greeted with crowded house
SIS this the play that fellar Raymond
wrote, after being here three months?"
a native asked the manager after the per
formence. The manager replied in the
affirmative. "Wall, it's funny, all right,
but | don't call them characters, he re-
sumed. "You see people round Rogers
like that every day"
Mr. Raymond had scene painter with
him during his stay in Rogers, and Ben
tonville and the artist had been Union
soldier. He was more or less inclined to
falkland one day got into quite heated
argunaent with an Arkansaw man who
I, r. / L mi
were discussing the valor displayed by
the respective sides during the war:
"Well," said the scene painter finally,
tive whipped you anyway" "Yes" an
swered the southerner, shut according
to the pension reports we wounded every
man of you that got out alive"

T5co Points Unsettled IN Contracts

clause holding the parish priests. as Iessees re-
sponsible fer keeping the churches in repair and
the clause prohibiting members Of the dissolved
religious orders from becoming parties 10 the
contracts. The Church authorities maintain that
II is impossible for the priests personally to as
sumo liability for keeping the churches in re-
pair This clause, however, is considered TO be
adjustable
But upon the other point the prelates who are
close 10 Cardinal Richard. Archbishop Of Paris.
are less optimistic. claiming that the former
monks are now secular priests, and that il would
be insulting to exclude them from acting as par
ish priests. The negotiations the latter point
are apt 10 be slow. Cardinal Richard must
consult with his colleagues in the episcopate and
secure the approval Of the Vatican at every step.
The clerical newspapers claim that the continu-
alton Of the negotiations is distinct victory for
the Church.
