BOTHERS HIM-S. p. Jones the
truck gardener, was at the city hall
yesterday inquiring about the ordi-
nance regulating the penning up of
chickens and other domestic fowls.
He states that his Eeighbor's chickens
go into his garden and scratch out
the planted seed and that it is prov
ing source of annoyance to him.
Mr.. Jones was under the impression
that chickens were to be penned up
on the first of April, but learned that
the first of March was the date. He
is also bothered with dogs who scratch
ont the seed, but he will take care of
them with charge of lead from a
shotgun IN future.

ENOUGH WATER ON HAND
TO RUN TO AUGUST FIRST

Supt. Harvey Killian of the city
water works. reports that there is
enough water conserved in the city
reservoirs to supply Florence for do
mestic purposes until the frst day OF
next August, even II another drop
does not flow into the storage reser-
voirs in the meantime. But there is
plenty Of water running in at this
time and the twelve-inch pipe is run
ming half full. Until the cold suap
last Saturday the pipe was running
almost full, and in eight days the
water in reservoir No. 2 was raised
nine feet and No. / five inches.
When three or four inches Of snow
fell here, there was about foot of the
beautiful deposited on the Greenhorn
mountains, which when it beg ins to
melt, will assure another big supply
Of water.
Supt. Killian says that the out
look for plenty of water for the en-
tire year is most encouraging and
that he thinks there will be ample for
all purposes. The spring storms
have not commenced yet, but when
they do it will deposit enough mois-
ture in the mountains to furnish an
almost continuous flow of water into
the reservoirs all summer. The con-
ditions are just the opposite this year
from last On the nineteenth of
April. when Mr.. Killian took charge
there was only few inches of water
in the reservoirs and preparations
were then being made to supply the
mains from the water we'll on Fourth
street. but as storm occurred about
that time, plenty of water came down
from the mountains In few days
and there was plenty of it for the rest
of the year.

Sir Algernon West tells this story in
his "Recollections:" One day the late
Sir George Campbell, who had very
strident, loud, rasping voice. called on
Sir Algernon. who was then secretary
to Mr.. Gladstone. to talk over the land
question.
After he had been in conversation
about three minutes the Office keeper
appeared, bearing the card Of an M. p.
who, he said. was very anxious to see
Sir Algernon. The latter said he was
sorry to be engaged. In another min
ute he appeared with the card of a
well known peer who was most de-
sirous to have a word with him. Again
the latter said he was too busy to see
him just then In another minute the
man again came In with huge card
saying the lord mayor and sheriffs of
London wanted to speak to Sir Alger-
non West very urgently in the next
room.
Sir Algernou apologized to Sir George
and went out to such great dignitaries
When he got out of the room the Office
keeper startled him by saying. There
amt nobody here. sir. but was afraid
a mailman had been shown in to you
by mistake, and / wanted to warn you
air."

When Victoria Lauohed.

One day during Queen Victoria's
reign three children were walking
along the road between Windsor and
Stoke Poges. They heard the sound
Of carriage wheels. It was the queens
carriage, and she was In it.
The oldest child, little boy, had
been reading stories Of eastern life and
fairy tales. He knew what was due
a queen and cried to the others:
"Get down fiat in the dust before
the carriage, and wen all call out to-
gether, oh, queen, live foreverr"
Down went the three little bodies
fat in the dust, much to the astonish-
ment Of the coachman. who refined up
sharply.
The queen leaned forward and
asked what in the world is the mat
ter, children? Are you frightened7">
Three voices came out Of the dust in
a smothered treble:
Eyes, o queenr'
Then there was a pause, and one
reproachful voice said, There, we for
got the live forever part"
The queen understood at once and
laughed aloud. as her coachman after
ward said. more heartily than she
had laughed for years. London Queen.

rbouob+ Controls Weather.

l certainly do believe we can gov
ern even "the elements '-the weather
--by thought power. i believe wealth
er is a reflection of the moods of the
race and that as we and our moods
evolve the weather changes to match
And believe it is quite possible for
your mental treatment or mine to
stem the world tide and change the
weather, just as one mans thought
sometimes stems the thought tide of
a mob and changes its course.
Why not? This is fluid world
made up of thought in motion. All
it's currents are set by thought, your
thought and mine and every mans.
Why, then, cannot air currents and
thought currents be stemmed by more
thought from you and from met They
can be. Nothing is impossible to him
who believes and keeps on trying.
This sounds like creed on weather.
It is. I've nothing beyond "coinci-
dences" and faith to prove 1t by. But
faith is the substance Of things not
SEEN" and the not seen things are
the really real ones. The man who
governs his thoughts speaks peace to
the weather waves.-Nautilus.

BAD For the Forelaners.

The case was one of assault, and the
magistrate, fearing that it might be
the beginning of another outbreak Of
hooliganism. was inclined to be Sc
we're.
'sFor the second t1me," he said, adj
dressing the prisoner, ''yOu are charged
with assaulting your neighbor. The
evidence shows that you deliberately
and without any apparent cause struck
the complainant with your clinched
fist"
Faith, yer honor" cried Pat "if
did he struck me back againl'
but he only did SO in self defense"
said the Judge.
"An' what about meT asked Pat
"All about you," answered the mag
istrate, els that you are found guilty
and must therefore keep the peace to-
ward all his maJesty's subjects for
twelve months"

Trees and Landowners In England.
BY the general laws Of England oak,
ash and elm are climber" If not young
er than twenty years or so old that
a good post cannot be cut from them.
What constitutes timber" varies
slightly according to locality, but
when a tree is proved to be timber"
a person who has only life interest
in the land it grows upon cannot cut
1t down unless it be on an estate cul-
tivated solely for the production Of
salable timber" or unless he has a
special agreement giving him power
to do so. A mere life tenant may not
even cut down trees which are not
timber" but which would at the age
Of twenty years attain that dignity.
Botanists differ as to the poisonous
nature of yew trees. There are many
instances both of their poisonous and
their harmless effect when browsed by
horses and cattle, but the partially
dried clippings of yew are certainly
most dangerous. If a yew tree over
hangs a neighbours land and his horses
eat the yew without trespassing. the
owner of the tree is liable to pay for
any injury the horses may sustain. On
the other hand, If the horses or cattle
cannot browse on the tree without put
ting their heads over the fence the
owner Of the horses must bear the loss,
for his animals have trespassed.-

a Hungry Mexican Shark.

Pursued by nine foot shark, which
when they abandoned their boat at the
shore put his front fins on the edge of
the boat and ate the fish therein as a
pig would eat out of a trough until in
its greed it swallowed big hook
thrown into the pile of fish, Is the
story told by several fishermen and
people who saw the windup of the af-
fair. The fishermen were returning to
port with their sloop filed to the gun
wales with fish when they noticed a
great fish pursuing them and rapidly
gaining on them, although still about
1000 feet away They hurried to the
pier, where In terror they scrambled
out of the boat. The shark, for such
the fish proved to be, followed them
and Immediately mounted part way
into the boat, where he began devour-
ing great quantities of fish in single
mouthfuls. The fishermen hurriedly Sc
cured a shark hook, which they threw
in with the fish. The shark, after a
mouthful or two, took the hook into
his mouth along with several fish and
swallowed it. A crowd of people had
gathered by this time, and all lent a
hand in pulling the monster in.-Mex-
lean Herald
