cred In Utah.


Washington, April 6.-Title to lands
In the state of Utah containing salt de.
posits OF an extent and purity hitherto
not only unknown, but undreamed OF,
Is involved in sensational contest now
being fought out in this city. About
$4,000 acres OF lands lying along the
western border of Utah have been dis
covered to be oveitopped with salt, and
an attempt Ia being made to acquire
them by the filing of placer mining
claims on the part OF individuals. The
yaule OF the lands was today estimated
by one of the claimants at 500 900 900.
Deposited by nature on the lands
over which the contest Is being made ia
bed OF pure salt, which in some places
lies to depth of six feet. This salt is
OF 80 fine a quality that il has been
found unnecessary to refine it. 1t can
DC marketed direct from the deposit and
tests have ehown it to be SO per cent
pure. Elaborate preparations have
been made for the control OF the land
by individuals, who have thus far kent
the discovery OF the deposit out of the |
newspapers.
For two or three months they we're
successful, but now the state of Utah
mas awakened to the vast possibilities
d this salt deposit and the aid of the
senate OF the United States and the
president has been invoked in an effort
o retain the product, which the com.
nonwea lth claims under a section of

Deary--The experience Of az e.
Drury, who lives at Ivy postoffice, five
miles south OF here, offers conclusive
proof that strawberries are one of the
IN 81 profitable crops that can be raised
10 the Inland Empire. Mr., Drury's
berry beds are laid out on top of high
MI back Of the postofIice, and from an
acre and half he realized last season
over $1,000 gross receipts. The fruit
ls picked off the vines into the baskets
IN which Ii IS marketed, and Ia lao
Grated before leaving the ground.
Mr.. Drury has unique and handy
arrangement for carrying the small
baskets about the patch. The tray con-
siats OF fiat wooden base, fitted with
springs made of common wire to hold
the receptacles in place, and wire bail
and wooden handhold to protect the
hands. This device is an invention of
Mr.. Drury.
This rancher has also shown the res

rom which he cuts two good crops each

BERLIN BEER HALLS.
Where One Must Display Great For
maIity and Prsciseness.

Berlin is organized for eating and
drinking. and so are the Berliners or
ganized for it. Scattered all over the
city are enormous places where food
is served, wine halls where only weles
are served and beer halls which deal
in beer alone, some OF them most re-
spectacle and some not so ~impeccablc.
1t is the rule hat it is perfectly proper
to take your mother or your wife or
your sister to Il beer hall or q wine
hall that is f%requented by the officers
of the army. They go only to the prop.
err ones-publicly.
The etiquette of these places is most
formal. If the hall is crowded and
tables are scarce, before you sit down
you draw your heels together and make
q military bow to everybody sitting at
the table you select; then also you
raise your glass or stein to those at the
table when your refreshment is served.
On leaving you bow all around again.
or the other people at the table bow if
they leave before you do. The Ameri-
can way of asking the others at the
table for permission to sit down is not
ceremonious enough for the Germans.

pie in the world.-Samuel q. Blythe in
