TIE Lewiston Fair

Lewiston is having fair this week
and number of the citizens of the
Potlatch are attending or have taken
IN the sights in the gateway city.
From the reports of those who have
been to the Coliseum the Fair this
year is about the best yet presented t.
the visitors and is well deserving OF
the crowds present.
Among the exhibits IN horticultural
hall are fine displays of fruits, cereals
and vegetables, but none from Latah
county were noticed. 1t would be a
good investment for this county to
make an exhibit, especially of non
irrigated products, IN which realm she
is practically queen. If this cannot
be done, the Potlatch should have an
exhibit of her own next wear.
The races were conducted in splen
did style this year and the judges
were apparently bound to give the
patrons of these sports a good time
and the worth of their money.

THE FLYING FOX.
Curious Inhabtant of the Forests In
Eastern Australia.

Curious Inhabitant Of the Forests In
Eastern Australia.
The flying fox is very curious in
habitant of the forest near Moreton
bay, In east Australia. 1t lives in
docks and moves generally toward the
dusk Of the evening, and the noise pro-
duced by the heavy Tapping Of the SO
called wings Is very singular. The
flocks like quiet places, where there
are large araucarian pine trees, with
an underwood Of scrub and creepers.
The foxes hang In vast numbers from
horizontal branches of the pine trees.
When there Is a clear space among
the trees an enormous number Of the
animals may be seen, and their noise
can be heard, for directly they see any
thing unusual they utter short bark,
something like the sound made by
young rocks. Often every branch Is
crowded, and the young foxes are seen
either Tapping their wings and holding
on with their hind feet and with their
heads downward or snarling and fight
ing for places.
Suddenly the whole take to fight and
Zap their furry, winglike sides and
wheel around like heavy birds. Many
fly with their young holding on to
them.
The creature Is not a true fox, and
there Is q fold Of skin which reaches
from the fore to the hind legs. This Is
called the wing, and it enables the
pteropus, as the animal Is called, to
Aoat and turn In the air.

They Came Within Fifty Years /
the Invention of Printing.
1t was within half century from
the invention Of printing that book
plates were Introduced as identifying
marks to indicate the ownership of the
volume.
Germany, the fatherland of printing
from movable type and of wood cut
ting for making Impressions in ink on
paper, is likewise the home land Of
the book plate. .....
The earliest dated woodcut Of ac-
cepted authenticity is the well known
est Christopher of 1923" which was
discovered in the Carthusian monas-
terry Of Buxheim, in Suabia.
It was to insure the right of owner
ship in book that the owner had 1t
marked with the coat of arms of the
family or some other heraldic device
Libraries were kept intact and passed
from generation to generation, bearing
the emblem of the family. ..
The first book plate in France Is dat
ed 1874: in Sweden, 1875; Switzerland,
1907, and Italy, 1923 The earliest Eng
lish book plate is found in folio vol
ume once the property of Cardinal VOL
sey and afterward belonging to his
royal master.
The earliest mention Of the book
plate in English literature is by Pepys,
July 49, 1858. The first known book
plate in America belonged to Governor
Dudley. Paul Revere, the patriot, was

THE GREEK MYRMEx.
Il Was the DeadIiest Weapon Of the
Ancient PugiIist.

IL Was the DeadIiest Weapon Of the
Ancient PugiIist.
The four ounce glove was unknown
to the ancient pugilist. When the
boxers and fighters came together In
the old days of Greece they wore up
on their hands the cestus, which was
In itself a terrible adjunct to any
fighter. But DR.. Daniel G. Briton dis
covered that there was sometimes at
tached to the cestus deadlier weap-
on, consisting Of three pronged fork
of bronze.
This was known as the myrmex. and
DR.. Brinton, who found this specimen,
gave it to the museum Of archaeology
In the University of Pennsylvania.
Classical literature has frequent ref
erences to the myrmex, which is de-
scribed as the deadliest weapon of the
ancient pugilist. The right hand was
swathed in tough hide, bound in place
with thongs and supplemented by
small knobs of lead or iron, to which
was affixed the myrmex. DR.. Brinton
made his discovery in Paris by ex-
aiming the Greek and Roman mar
bles In the Louvre. One of these
groups represented a fighter bearing
on his right fist the cestus and myr-
mex.
Combats in those days were much
more brutal and dangerous than those
of the modern prize ring. 1t Is easily
seen that single blow Of the myr-
mex might cause death or permanent
injury.
