There are between 80 and 40 Spokane
people who have launches, yachts or
motor boats at the lake besides q
number Of residents Of Occur d'Alene
city making q list Of about so 10 all
who would probably enter boats IN a
regatta.
The regatta held by the boat club,
last year, the FIRST that they have
given. vas successful, attracting
large crowds. The feature Of last
years regatta was the presence Of
several Portland rowing cracks, who
gave exhibitions of four.oared and
double rowing and single soulIinR.

Last evening the committee met with

The results were not all that could

THE ANXIOUS FARMER.

1t now appears that tn craps air
good" The announcement comes as
a great surprise to the innocent city
folks who hadn't supposed that any
kind of crop was a remote possibility.
Don't they remember what was said
last spring when it was so cold? Why,
the peach crop was ruined and SO
were all the other fruits. Then after
that, the green bugs began employing
press agents and widely advertised
their intention of wrecking the whole
wheat crop. But it now appears that
the wheat crop is just as good as
ever In fact, word comes that the
whole harvest will be abundant, I'M
less it is the corn crop, and even in
this the losses in some places may
be compensated for by the eXtraor-
binary yield in others.
From all of the above facts it may
be gathered that the inherent charac-
teristics of the farmer as such have
not changed materially since the days
of our fathers. The methods of his
calling have been entirely reyolu-
tionized in recent years. Complicat-
ed machinery run by steam is sub
stituted for the sweat of the brow;
science has stepped in to SYSTEMATIC
every branch of farm labor. The
farmer himself, a well-kept, alert in
diyidual, is a very different looking
gentleman from the horny-handed
son of TOLL" who used to be repre-
sentative of the class. But the sa-
lient characteristics of the farmer
have not changed at all. At heart
he is still, as he always has been,
pessimist. Together with his friends
and enemy, Wall street, he dwells up
on the weather, and is anxious. He
cheers up at the end of every season
when he finds out that the Lord has
to take care of the weather
pretty well and that there will be
harvest after all; but that does not
save him from next years fit of the
blues. Republican.

NEW ZEALAND RAILWAY RATES

First class passenger rates in New
Zealand average about cents mile
and second class rates about 2 cents.
There are special rates for school and
factory excursions, and there are sea-
son tickets and other concessions, but
so per cent of the passengers are car
ried at ordinary fares, while so per
cent of them travel second class. 1t is
probable, then, that the average fare,
per passenger mile, is in the neigh
borhood of 2 cents, and, therefore,
about the same as in the United
States. There are no night trains,
and the service on most of the lines
is rather infrequent. The best SER
vice in New Zealand is that between
Christchurch and Dunedin, where
there are two express trains daily,
travelling at a speed of twenty-five
miles an hour. On most of the other
lines express trains travel from fif-
teen to twenty-one miles an hour,
and ordinary trains from ten to four
teen miles an hour. The first class
carriages compare favorably with
chair cars in the United States, but
second class accommodation is very
poor and the carriages are generally
overcrowded.
1t is impossible to make an accu-
rate estimate of freight rates in New
Zealand, but they are probably at
least 4 cents per ton-mile, as COM
pared with .766 per ton-mile, the av-
erage for the railways of the United |
States. The ton, however, is the long
ton of 2240 pounds. 1t is worth not
ing that more than 80 per cent of all |
freight handled by the New Zealand
railways is carried at the owners
risk, and that delays and losses from |
shortage of cars and other causes are
common. In fact, the expenses of
shipment are so great that goods
which are sold at reasonable prices
in the seaport towns are very eX-
pensive in the interior, and the de-
velopment of the country is thereby |
greatly retarded.-J. e. LeRossignol
in Moody's.

LARGE SUM FOR PURPOSE
OF RESTORING HOLY ROOD

A sum of 1000 pounds, or about
5000, 900, is said to have been guar
anteed for the purpose of restoring
the venerable pile of the Abbey
Church of the Holy Rood, adjoining
the Royal Palace of the same name,
a little outside Edinburg.
Holy Rood dates from the twelfth
century. The exact year is uncertain,
but lips is generally accepted as
approximate.
According to the legend King Da
vid L., who was hunting in the neigh
boring forest, was attacked by a stag,
which had been brought to bay by
the hunting party He was thrown
to the ground by the furious animal
and was in imminent danger of
death.
Suddenly, says the Rosary Maya
zine, a cross arose from the ground
between the form of the beast and
the monarch; and the stag, alright
ed, fed. The cross remained on the
spot It's material substance was
mystery to those who examined it.
The occurrence was looked upon as
miraculous. In gratitude to meaven
the king ordained that shrine
should arise on the ground adjacent.
He decreed that it be called the
Church of the Holy Rood, and gave it
in the care of the Canons Regular of
st. Augustine.
What remains of the abbey is call
ed the Chapel Royal. 1t is only a
fragment of the old building, but is
yet considerable. The portion form
ed the nave of the great abbey It's
walls are lofty, it's windows tall, and
it's western door of generous proper
tons. The carving is rich, though
not florid.
The tombs within the abbey walls
include those of King David l., King
James H. (of Scotland), King James
V. and his queen, Magdalen, Henry,
Lord Darnley, and many other MEM
'bers of the Scottish nobility. The
grave of Riccio is not within the alb
hey enclosure, but in a passage lead
ing to the quadrangle of the palace.

PURE FOOD REGULATIONS.

There is no variety of the Square
deal that the plain citizen is in a
position to appreciate and applaud
more than official and governmental
protection of the individual from
fraud in what he eats and drinks.
With the commissioners insisting on
the observance of regulations shaped
in accordance with the new pure
food law; with health departments
awakening to the need of more rig
orous inspection Of public eating
places; with the inspectors of weights
and measures getting busy" and
with watchful public scanning the
labels on bottled, canned and tin
ned goods, there seems to be no
great cause for anxiety less the con-
sumner get too small a share in the
square deal in solid foods. But
what about our drink? How long
are we to be sold Mocha with Java
coffee, when not pound of Mocha a
year comes to the grocer so selling
and much of the Java is merely
Santos or some other inferior coffee
raised in Brazil? What about those
American importations of 'Nierstein
err wine already in excess or the en-
tire production of the Niersteiner
district? What, too, as to that Pill
sener beer, more of which now comes
to our market than could be brewed
in any ten years in Pilsen? Here are
questions that come right back-at
least in the wine and beer cases
to the present commissioners as mat
tiers of falsified labels. Those who
are congratulating themselves that
we have gotten thus far on the road
to purer foods should not delude
themselves with any inadequate es-
innate of the long, long way We have
yet to travel on the "square-deal''

COUGHS UP WHISTLE
SWALLOWED YEARS AGO
Nickle-plated Noise Producer Car
Fied In Mans Stomach For
Twenty-Five Years.

After carrying nickle-plated
whistle in his stomach for twenty
two years, Ephraim Jerome of Pom
pref, Vt, brought the article to light
by a severe fit of hiccoughs. The
whistle appeared to be none the
worse for its long repose in Ephraims
interior.
When Ephraim was 8 years old his
father went to Rutland to attend the
fall term of the county court and
there bought from a faker the whistle
which was later swallowed by his
son. 1t was a round, fiat affair about
the size of a 10-cent piece, and was
intended to be placed between the
lips. In this position an indrawn
breath or a blast forced through
would cause it to emit a shrill shrek.
The whistle was SO nice and shiny
that Ephraim could hardly tell which
created the most joy in his heart,
blowing it or flashing it in the sun
light between his fingers. Between
the two occupations he was pretty
busy, much to the annoyance of his
mother, who upset more than one
pan of milk when Ephraim approach
ed from behind.
Amos ParSOn, an uncle Oh the Idu
came on visit and he had no sooner
arrived than Ephraim maneuvred be-
hind him to see how high he could
make him jump. The indrawn breath
brought forth a noise like the sharp
squall of an enraged cat and the lad
put forth an the power of his lungs
as he sucked ill., The result was be-
yond his widest hopes.
Uncle Amos leaped into the air,
but he was an astute old gentleman
and before he had reached ground he
spied Ephraim. With roar of rage
he swung his cane on the anatomy of
the boy, striking a most tender spot,
and down Ephraim's gullet went the
whistle.
Emetics brought no result and fl
nally the whistle was given up for
/ lost A couple of days ago the hic-
coughs started and in the midst OF
an attack Jerome heard familiar
wheeze. The next instant up came
the whistle. 1t wasn't even rusted
