FOREST NOT ALWAYS SILENT.
Prof. Garner Authority for Assertion
That Wild Animals Converse.

The chatter of monkeys Is a real
chatter and conversation, some folks
say. Prof. r. l.. Garner, who has spent
the greater part of several years in
the forests of Africa studying the Ian.
guages of monkeys and other animals,
says silence is not an absolute ele-
ment in the safety Of wild animal life.
Wild animals are more taciturn than
domestic animals, as also are the wild
tribes Of human beings. This he at
tributes to lack of social intimacies
and nomadic habits. The carnivora,
the only natural enemies which other
animals have any cause to fear
through the sound of their voices, de-
pend almost entirely upon the sense
Of smell in pursuing their game, every
species having it's peculiar odor. Also
the carnivora generally hunt at night
selling their prey while asleep. The
animals which have the fewest rea-
sons to fear betrayal by their voices
are by nature the most silent. During
Prof. Gamers three years residence
in the jungle he found that the chin.
panzee frequently breaks the silence
of the forest by answering the cries
OF the various other animals. The
gorilla is less loquacious, but there
are times when he ignores all danger
OF betrayal and gives vent to deluge
Of speech. Other monkey species are
persistent takers, and can be heard at
almost any hour. The trumpeting Of
the elephant is common at night, and
the believing of the hippopotamus
by day or night. The antelopes cry at
night when the leopard is on the hunt
for them, the latter also grunung.

irrigation. They were as fine looking

TAIN PROMISES TO BE A BIG

One month ago c. r. Browne filed
with the county auditor his notice of
location OF a gypsum mine on Saddle
mountain. 1t has since developed
that the mine is much more than a
prospect. Development work has
been progressing and indicationse are
now that within short time large
plant will be established for the man
ufacture of plaster OF paris.
A representative of the Daily
World, in making an investigation
of the conditions about the location
found that there is now a large body
of the mineral in sight. A shaft, 80
feet deep, has been dug and work is
still being done.
Mr.. Browne states that the work
will continue, and that within a
short time contract will be let for
a tunnel which will be made $50 or
900 feet below the surface.
Averages 81 Tton.
according to the assays which we
have made" said Mr.. Brown, the
mineral is averaging 81 per ton
Asked if it would be his intention
to form a stock company to develop
the work, Mr.. Browne said that the
work of development was already
stocked, ana they had none, for sale

WRITES TO KRUPP SIGNAL OF
TIMES IN THE BIG BEND COUN-
TRY 81 YEARS AGO.

In letter to the Krupp Signal,
Judge Steiner, writing from We1at-
chez, reminiscently refers to the
conditions in the Big Bend county "a
years ago. The article, as published
in the krupp Signal, says:
"Wenatchee, June 90.
Editor Krupp Signal am this day
in receipt of copy of the Signal
Twenty-fOur years ago my wife, then
young bride, and | drove through
or near the present site of Krupp on
our way to Badger mountain, to take
up a homestead. The region about
the present town was then a portion
of what was called in those days ''the
DESERT" and there was no human
habitation in the vicinity except the
UrQuhart stock ranch.
"a perusal of the Signal reveals
the fact that the same desert in 1907
produced a million bushels of wheat;
that your town has schools, churches
a newspaper, grain elevators, bank,
merchants in every line of trade,
doctors, lawyers and, of course, the
ubiquitous town site boomer. Also
that on special occasions you travel
in special trains.
cit is a far cry from the howl of
hungry coyote to the b-r-r-r of a

that people are building houses faster than
the population Is growing and the less de-
sirable homes remain vacant for some time.
But this fact has its good side. After some
of these houses have been vacant for a
mouth or two and the owners lose the
rentals. they usually are forced by their
agents to do extensive repairing and put
the house in good condition in order to rent
1t. More than one old residence is receiv-

ion Of gothic, colonial. or classic detail,
as the case may be.
The stair hall is necessary considered
with the stairway, a panelled wainscoting
being the principal feature OF decoration.
This wainscottng Is usually from thirty
inches to four feet high, with the usual
baseroard at the bottom and a neat cap
of mouldings at the top.
Bslusters admit OF a great variety of
design. They are usually turned with a
square block top and base. The caps on
the baiusters should step up with each
baluster in the same degree OF rise as the
rail, but the base block and mouldings
at the base should run horizontally on
each step. some part OF each being on a
line with the step above.
Balusters are from ~seven-eighths inch
to one inch and three-quarters in diameter
for the usual stairs, but sometimes larger
for elaborate work. The spacing is OPP
tional, but in the best old cononial homes
there are three balusters to a tread OF
ten inches and four to a tread OF twelve
inches, The construction OF hand rails
presents a complex subject. A few sug-
~gestions will suffice here. The top of the
rail should be smooth and rounding to al
low the hand to pass over 1t easily. 1t

able one to grip It with the thumb and
fingers. The hand rail should be from
four to five inches broad. The distance
from top OF rail down to top OF step, taken
on a line with face OF riser, should be not
less than twenty-eight inches nor more
than t~hirty-two inches, thirty inches is best.
Stair treads should be one and three
eighths inches thick. the riser seven
eighths inch thick. The usual width of
stairs is three feet to five feet from the
wall. Rear stairs can be two feet six
inches wide, All enclosed stairs having
walls on each side should have a hand
rail on each side Goth sides is better)
supported by iron brackets.
The most important point In planning a
stair is the pitch, or relation between the
risers and the treads. The pitch OF a
stair is often restricted to as small a
space as possible to save room. but under
ordinary conditions the requirements of
surrounding features OF the plan should
yield so far as possible to allow OF ample
horizontal space for the stair in order TO
avoid a steep ascent" To avoid this con-
dition there are several rules, the most
common being the American rule of not
less than seventeen or more than eighteen
inches as the sum of riser and tread: thus
a riser Of seven inches would call for a
tread of ten or eleven inches. The Ger
man rule is TO make their q~uotient be-
tween seventy and seventy-five inches. The
French rule is to take twice the height OF
the riser and add it to the tread, keeping
the sum between twenty-four and twenty
five inches. 1t is safe to say, however.
that the riser should not be less than six
and one-half inches. nor more than seven
and one-half ipches from tread to tread.
and that the. tread should be from nine
to twelve inches for all house stairs OF
Importance. The rear and cellar stairs
can be eight inch riser and eight inch
