Getting Too Near the Hot Place.
North Yakima Dispatch to Seattle Post

InquIreT.
 Sudden fright at the thought that they may be uncomfortably near to the fabled hot place has driven many for eign workmen from their tasks in con- struction work on the Chicago. Mill waukee and St. Paul Railroad, near its intersection with the Columbia River, above Priest rapids. Volumes of steam arising from crevices in the rock walls where the roAdbed had been blasted, they believed. threatened volcanic erup- ton. Some of the workmen ascribed supernatural agencies as the cause. Prof E l.. Ainslee of Seattle, has just investigated the cause of the fright to the foreigners.

Now there seems possibility of Portugal becoming Republic. but we shall wait to see what sort of one 1t will be before offering any conEratu- lations.

Senator Reese Likes Primary.

Mir Henry F. Reese, who Is Senator of Dallas County in the Legislature. is in Montgomery to transact legal busi- ness for his clients. Tn a conversation with pleasant persons he stated his ideas of the primary plan for the selec- tion of delegates to the National Dem ocratic Convention where representa- tives of the party in Alabama are go- that the majority will approve of
 '"rhe primary plan," MT. Reese said, lis in my opinion excellent. The con- vention system I generally approve. but I think that in present circumstances, where there seems to have been much of confusion and enmity, though the latter may be partially amiable. 1t is better to submit the proposition to the people. It is Democratic and now. at least, expedient." Mir. Reese is a Bry- an man and wishes him to be nominat- ed. The Senator will be In Montgom- cry until tomorrow.

A Present for Mir. Pateraon.

Yesterday was the birthday of Mir. William B. Paterson, the President of the State Normal School for Negroes, and while 1t is not written under the head, This Is My Birthday" in anoth = CT column of the newspaper. 1t is per- haps altogether as interesting to Mont gomery people as the gentleman's na- tai day that Is selected for today's publicity.
 What is particularly pleasing about Mir. Patterson's birthday is a token of the high regard that the students of his school have for him. They employ ed an umbrella as sign and testi- monial, and in a little ceremonial they themselves prepared they plainly proved to MT. Paterson that his tute- lage has won affection as we'll as ad- miration. When Mir. Paterson received the gift he replied with excellent ef- feet.
 Mir. Paterson became the President of the school in 1870. He had many difiaculties to work against and many obstacles to overcome: but he has ac- compIished his work and is ready to do more. His work hss had the approba- ton of both sides of the question, which Is a bit unusual. and in the flu ture, 1t may be safely predicated. he will have a continuance of the co-op- eration that he has enjoyed in the past.

Cnptain Jones May Be a Candidate

Among many pleasant persons yes- terday Captain W. B. Jones was named a probable candidate as member of the Board of Revenues. and while Cap tain Jones answered neither yea nor nay. friends who claimed to know a good deal about it said that he would be a candidate. They had reasons, they said for their belief.
 They declared that Captain Jones. first of all. had leisure not only to make the campaign, but in case he should be elected, would have both the leisure and the competence to attend to the duties of the office. For Captain Jones has not only the competency which affords him leisure. but he has the competency. proven in the acquire ment of the competency, to handle af- fairs of both pith and moment The two reasons are prominently advanced. Captain Jones has for many years been identified with the affairs of Montgom- cry town and county tand his friends are firmly confident that if they can persuade him to be a candidate they will elect him.

Just a Fish Story.


We cannot refrain from recording
the most curious capture Of fish that
has come to our notice. The circum-
stance was retailed many years ago by
Mr.. Heathcote, one Of the great au-
thorities on the fens. A Mr.. Richard:
son of Peterborough was skating on
the bikes when the Ice was very clear,
and he noticed large pike swimming
in front of him The fish was terrified
by the apparition and swan in front of
the skater until it stopped from sheer
exhaustion. The skater broke the Ice
and took out the fish with his hand,
which proved to be pike weighing
twelve pounds. 1t is a story difficult
even for fisherman or a local histo:
rian to cap.-London Outlook.

What tha Cal Aad..

The teacher of the Sunday school
class was telling the little boys about
temptation and showing how 1t some
times came in the most attractive form.
She used as an illustration the paw Of
a cat.
4 "Now," said she. 'you have all seen
the paw OF cat. It Is as soft as vel
vet. isn't itY'
z "Yessum." from the class.
A "And you have seen the paw OF a
deg?"
'Yessum.''
"Well, although the cats paw seems
like velvet, there is nevertheless con-
cealed in it something that hurts. What
Is 1t?
No answer.
s'The dog bites,'' said the teacher,
"when he is in anger. But what does
the cat do?''
Scratches" said a boy.
Correct" said the teacher, nodding
her head approvingly. ''Now, what has
the cat got that the dog hasn't?''
"Whiskers!' said boy on the back
seat.-Home Magazine.

Nassau William Senior, the English

Of his pen was not an agreeable ac-
