Marry and Part For a Year.

Among the many peculiar customs
prevalent among the people Of Central
America is that of parting for one year
after the marriage ceremony has been
solemnized. This custom has prevailed
among the Jarnos from time immemo-
rial There is no courtship allowed to
be carried on between the parties prior
to the wedding. When man selects
woman he obtains the consent Of the
parents on both sides, and if this is
given they are at once married. The
reason. however, for their not living
together as man and wife for one year
after marriage is in order to permit of
the parties visiting and staying with
their respective friends in different
parts Of the country, which is a GUS
tomary thing and occupies the time
specified. Ninety-nine out of hundred
of these marriages turn out well.

Naturalists have placed the beaver a
long way down in the list Of verte-
brates. but 1t undoubtedly stands next
to man In the variety of occupations in
which 1t engages. All cats are hunt
ers, while foxes that are not thieves
may be included also among the MINI
rods. All canaries are prlma donnas,
and monkeys make clever comedians,
but It is only the beaver parent that
educates its children to take up several
trades. In a single colony among them
you will find civil and marine engi-
neers, woodchoppers, raftsmen, labor
ers, quarrymen, miners, plasterers,
masons, carpenters, hodcarriers and
fishermen. All beavers take contracts
for building dams, but when the work
is undertaken the task is so divided
that each member Of the colony has its
own particular work to look after. In
this way they make some wonderful
excavations and construct their dams
In an incredibly short time.

swordsmsn Of tho Sea.

The swordsmen of the sea are the
sawfsher, spearflshes sail6shes, sword
fishes and the narwhal, with its spiral
ly twisted straight tusks. The saw
fishes inhabit the warmer seas, while
the narwhal is a creature Of the arctic.
The tusk Of the narwhal is hollow
nearly to the point and is spirally
grooved. 1t uses its tusk as weapon
of defense and to plunge through the
Ice to breathe, the narwhal being a
cetacean Sometimes when boat has
been caught In the ice great damage
has been inflicted by the inquisitive-
ness or laundering of this great crea-
ture, that sometimes reaches length
Of fifteen feet, with a tusk Of from six
to ten feet in length. AS a rule, how
ever, the narwhal uses its tusk for the
purpose of killing fish for food. In the
castle of Rosenberg tlse kings Of Den
mark have long possessed a magnifi-
cent throne made of tusks Of this
cetacean. These tusks are harder and
whittier than ivory.

Henri was paying his first visit to
London and was already wishing him
self home in gay Paree, for he knew
not a word Of English. He had been
very unfortunate and had lost all his
luggage, a toothbrush. So he deter
mined to buy another. But how was
he to make his needs understood
At last his luck turned, however,
and he espied chemists shop with a
notice outside, "Ici on Parle Francais." ="
In he went and told the assistant In
French what he wanted. But that as
sistant knew no language except Eng
lish, and another who came to help
him was just as far at sea.
But the proprietor was an intelligent
man, and he knew at once from the
cut of the customers clothes that he
was speaking French.
"Leave him to me-" he said, with
superior smile.
Then, forming a megaphone with his
hands, he shouted in the Frenchman's
ear:

1t took $7S9,249.2S to build the Ar

oregon Daily Journal. 1t would take
$1,179,S66 to reproduce the road at
the present time under conditions Of

Is the information given by the offic-
lals of the o. r. & N. as result OF
Investigations which have been car

request Of the state railroad COM
mission.
It also required $1,25S,755 to con-
struct the Biggs-Shanlko branch, and
would take $1,352,7SS to reproduce
the line The cost of the Pilot Rock
Pendleton branch, just completed, was
$342, ,01S.9S.
These figures just completed by the

which rates may be computed by the
