SAHARA DESERT.

A sun-Baked Region Of Deso1.tien
and Ever Shifting sands.
In the event that 1t becomes neces-
sary for France, to interviews n The
affairs Of Morocco. IN the interests Of
International order, the scene q her
first operations Will be in The desert
region where the French colony Of
Algiers and the country Of Tho Moors
join. French troops are now posted
in that region and more dismal set
ting for military operations 1t would be
difficult to find. Under the name Of
the Algerian Sahara the great desert Of
Sahara extends into Algeria, along the
southern base Of the Atlas mountains
and closely approaches the Mediterra-
mean west Of the Gulf of Cabes. The

can scarcely be realized. The Sahara
desert embraces some $4,000 square

Odd Habits Of Pheasants.

There Is some curiosity as to how
many English pheasants will be raised
In Kansas this year. The average mum.
Der Of birds raised by each pair of par
ent birds is sixty. With 1000 in the
State this would mean about 100000
birds In two years. The woods and
fields would be overrun with them at,
this rate. However, there are many
foes Of the birds and they are killed
every year In great numbers The sleet-
storms are particularly hard on them,
as the water freezes on their long plu-,
mage and they are unable either to fly
or run fast. When in this condition
they are easy prey to dogs and wolves.
One Of the queerest habits the birds
have is to migrate in the late winter
thirty-1ve miles. 1t Is claimed that the.
birds always migrate exactly thirty
five miles and always to the south. The

was not necessary for the county to
meet this obligation until Il was due,
j. A. Carson was called for to make
a statement as to the legal status of

enabling act to give some court juris-
diction to set aside the levy, there
could be nothing done.

BILL FOR FREE LOCKS.
Jones of Polk Working for Free
Locks nc Oregon City-Two
Tax Levies.

To obtain free waterway In the
falls, Representative Jones, of Polk
and Lincoln, has introduced n bill
creating a board OF commissioners
of the Willamette locks. This board,
which is to consist of the governor,
secretary of state and state treasur-
er, is empowered to build, construct,
operate and maintain locks on the
east bank OF the river at Oregon City.
To raise the necessary funds, estl-
mated at 100000, two tax levies are
provided. In the discretion of the
board. If the present locks on the
west, side of the river can be OBJ
tained for a less sum than necessary
to build locks on the east bank, the
board has the privilCSe of acquiring
the locks now In operation.
Power Is given the board TO con
demn private property for the pur-
pose of acquiring right of way, A
levy OF one-half of mill is provided
for 1907. on all taxable property
within the state, aud a similar tax In
1908. These two levies, Il is esti-
mated, will raise the 100000 to
hnild or buy locks When the locks
are constructed or acquired they are
free to passage OF all river craft.
In order TO exDediate matters. the
bill carries an emergency clause and
is exempt from the operation OF the
referendum. The measure states
that free locks are of immediate Inn
portance TO the people of Oregon.
Representative Jones has had his
measures carefully drafted and this.
with his railroad reciprocal demur-
rage bill. will occupy his entire at
tention during the session. Mr.
Jones believes that the free locks
will receive the support OF all the
western Oregon members because
they realize the necessity OF such
accommodation and that eastern Ore
