X. OF p. RESOLUTIONS.
Expressing Sympathy and Coincidence
on the Death of Brother ID.
w Kings Mother

Whereas, In II etwise and ever
mysterious dispensation Of PrOvl-
dence, the grim messenger has in
Vaded the home of our esteemed
brother D. w. King, and desolate1
the brothers home by the removal of
his dear mother, with becoming grav-
ity and solemnity we lay upon the
altar such tribute of affection, and
such proof of our commentator as
the virtue of the dear departed one,
by her death we are reminded that
Men drop so fast ere life's midstage
we tread, few know so many friends
alive as dead" and we may profit
ably draw from this visitation which
has stricken her down, such lessons
as are calculated to teach us what
shadows we are. Sorrow for the
dead is the only sorrow from which
we refuse to be separated. Every
other wound we seek to heal, every
othr affection to fOget. This afilic-
ton we cherish and brood over in
solitude. The grave buries every err
ror and covers every defect, extin-
guishes every resentment. From its
peaceful bosom springs none but fond
regrets and tender recollections.
Therefore, be it
Resolved, BY the officers and mem
bers of Valley Lodge No. 116, of We
! natchee, Wash, that in the death he
! has lost a kind, fond and indulgent
mother, and in this hour of his at
Fiction we tender to him, and to all
! the relatives, our sincere and heart
felt sypmathy in the loss they have
sustained; and
Resolved further, That while the
remains are consigned to the ele-
ments from which hey came. We also
recommend the breaved brother to
the compassion and clemency of the
great Judge whose final decisions are
without error and final. and who
notes even the sparrOw's fall.
She heard a voice we could not hear,
Which said she must not stay;
She saw a hand we could not see,
Which beckoned her away.
Resolved, That copy of these res
olutions be furnished to the bereaved
brother.

Telephone Manners.

Do telephones lead to politeness or otherwise? When they first came into use the answer to this question would have been emphatically in the nega- tive, but now that they are almost uni versally prevalent an era of good manners and thank you's" seems to be in full swing. In some communities it is not even possible to quarrel over the telephone. although the two women who took part in the following conver- sation came near 1t:
 Hello! Is this Mrs. Weston"
 "Yes."
 'This is your next door neighbor, Mrs. Lawrence. I thought you might be interested to know that at the pres- ent moment your son Thomas is sitting on one of the sheets which are bleach ing on my lawn and is building large pile of mud on it." -.-.
 "Oh. thank you, Mrs. Lawrence" ex- claimed the mother And may | re- turn the favor by informing you that your setter Rab has just rooted up my two new rosebushes and that he seems to be chewing the buds!'
 "Oh, indeed! Thank you! Goodby"
 "Not at all. Thank you! Goodby!"

FIRST DAY IN FACTORY.
Views the Carpet Works and Is Anx.
 iOus to Get Busy.

Thompsonville, Oct 3.-Theodore Roosevelt, Jr, spent his first day in a factory Thursday and the young man seemed to enjoy his novel experience. He reported promptly Thursday morning at the office of the Hartford Carpet Co, and after some routine work, was taken through the plant and introduced to the various over seers of the departments. In the af- ternoon he was taken to the wool as- sorting department and turned over to Overseer w. T. Hines. Young Roosevelt wanted to don pair of overalls and pitch in" with the men in wool asserting. When informed that he was not to commence assort- ing wool until Monday he seemed disappointed and was to see Vice. President Higgins, so he could re- port in the morning at 6:45 a. m.
 Young Roosevelt spent the after noon running through the raw ma terial and when night came and he departed with two. bales of wool" on his clothes one man remarked the young man made good" With the help he is to be first employed with he was voted jolly and genial good fellow.

SEEING LONG DISTANCES.
Mont Blanc Visible from Another
 Mountain iss Miles Away.

One of the fast trains between
 Paris and Marseilles was just leaving
 the station at Dion in October last
 when passenger in great excite
 ment called out:
 There Is Mont Blanc!"
 The other passengers looked ont
 of the windows and sure enough they
 saw away to the southeast the snowy
 upper summits of the intervening
 Jura mountains. It looked like a
 cloud floating in the air.
 It was a sunless day, but the air
 was extraordinarily limpid. for all the dust in 1t had been washed out
 by the rain that had fallen every day in the month.
 It is most unusual for Mont Blanc to be seen from the railroad track
 at Dion, 1S6 miles distant in a plain
 less than 800 feet above the sea. It is visible at times from the heights around the city.
 It is of interest to travellers tn France to know that Mont Blanc is normally always visible from Lyons,
 ninety-nine miles distant; Macon. 102 miles, and Chalon-sur-Saone, IA miles. Whether or not tue
 mountain can be seen from many points in southeastern France from
 day to day is popularly regarded as a weather indication.
 Of course if you are standing on q considerable elevation and there are no obstacles in the way, you may see Mont Blanc from greater dis tances. The mountain is in view, for example, from the heights that dominate Marseilles.
 Puy de Dome in France, 4,790 feet high, is 18S miles west of Mont Blanc. but the great snow mountain is visible from the top of the lower summit. The mountains of Forez bar the way between them, but 1t happens curiously enough that there is deep depression in these noun tains just along the line of sight be- tween the tops of Puy de Dome aud Mont Blanc and through this abrupt lowering of the range the snow
 mountain may be seen.
 This is believed to be the greatest distance that can be seen with the naked eye in the climate of southern
 Europe. Here are a number of mountains and the distances at which they may be seen out at sea: Vesuvius, before the last eruption, S7 miles; Ventoux, 105; Canigou, 12S; Etna, 13S; Teneriffe, 157; Flu jiyama, 160; Cameron, 165; Chim- borazo, 191; Aconcagua, POI. Most of the giants of the Aniean cordillera, even those that are con- siderable distance inland, can be seen from out at sea. The first, view shows them only as little elevations above the horizon and the lower ] mountains around them are not !E sight. But as the land is approached
 the great summits are gradually re-
 vealed in all their splendid propor- l tions.

HOMuNG PIGEON FAR AT SEA.
Dopped Exhausted to Vessel Of the
 Texas Coast.

Captain Baker of the Ell Cid, when his vessel arrived in port Saturday, brought with him carrier pigeon which he claims to have picked up at sea $50 miles off the Texas coast. He says that the bird dropped to the deck of his steamer early one morn ing and that when picked up 1t was in a complete state of exhaustion
 The unusual fact of such a bird being so far from land excited his at tention, and it was discovered that the bird had attached to its leg sil- yer band bearing the inscription No 19 R. F."
 There is no way of ascertaining to whom the bird belongs nor where it came from. Local pigeon fanciers know of no such record mark or num- Der and have been unable to find it listed in any of their catalogues.
 Whether or not the bird bore a message when 1t was released is hot known, for there was no trace of it when the bird was recovered. Cap tain Baker said the bird had had a hard experience, for when it dropped it was in state of exhaustion and could not have gone much further.
 The Fl Cid left the port tonight for New York, but Captain Baker has taken good care of the bird and will endeavor to ascertain where 1t comes from and if possible get an explana- tion as to why it was way out on the gulf $50 miles from the nearest land. Houston Post.

ing men of the southern states at the conference between the National Con servation commission and the state governors or their representatives will lead to fuller realization of the immense natural resources of the south.
 In this connection they cite re- cent report by the geological survey which stated that there Is minimum of about 2,S00,000 indicated horse power developed by the rivers rising In the southern Appalachian noun tains, half of which, at the very least could be utilized for power, So far hardly enough has been developed to make an appreciable showing com pared with the enormous possibili- ties, Full development of storage fa- cilities in these river basins would increase the horsepower from 3 to 30 times, according to the experts. But taking the minimum of 1,400,- 900 horsepower, its rental at S20 per horsepower per year would amount to an annual return of $2S,- |000,00. Water power is much cheap er than fuel power and will become more and more so as the available supply of fuel is depleted. This means that the demand for water power will increase. These southern business men foresee great manu- facturing future for their section and are determined to instill their ideas into the minds of others. They point lout also that the usefulness of these rivers can be increased not only for manufacturing, but for transporta- tion. The improvement of the lum- Der business and of the allied indus try of turpentining has also received much attention from them. In some states, they say there are very rich mineral deposits which might be worked with great profit.

The Mollenhauer Band.

In addition to all the parades, pageants, tableaux, fireworks and the like that will entertain the vis- itors to Hartford during the big bridge dedication on October 6, [, and 8, there will be rare treat for all music lovers in the presence of the famous Mollenhauer band of Boston. This organization, consist ing of 65 pieces, and known as one of the finest bands in the United States, has been engaged as the of ficial band of the dedication and 1t will give concert every evening at the grandstands on the boulevard near the Hartford entrance to the bridge. It will also play at the lay ing of the last stone of the bridge by the Connecticut Grand lodge of Masons on Thursday morning. and it will be heard again at the uhveiling of the tablet on the bridge in the afternoon of the same day. Every member of this band is a virtuoso artist, and its leader, Emil Mollen- hauer, is one of the most prominent conductors in this country. He has conducted one of the greatest choral organizations in America, the Han- del and Hayden society of Boston, has led several famous bands, as well as number of oratorios, and has officiated at many of the great musical festivals throughout the country. His name and reputation are well known to all persons in America who are interested in mu- sic.

SNAILS AS FOOD.

The custom of eating the ordinary garden snail, though not common in England, is by no means unknown, and has it's adherents from Neweas- tle-on-Tyne, in the far north, to Bris- tol, in the extreme southwest. At the former town the glassmen used to hold an annual feast at which snails were eaten, the Sunday before being spent in hunting for these dell cacies. At Bristol at the present time there is an ever-growing de- mand for snails; the practice of eat ing them was introduced some years ago as a cure for consumption, but has been continued and extended be- cause a taste for them has been formed. They have always been favorite food with gypsies, who roast them in the traditional manner by placing them on red hot ashes. An anonymous writer of some fifty years ago tells us that he met some chil- dren collecting snails. On being questioned he obtained the follow ing information from one of them, a little girl: We hooks them" she said. "out of the wall with a stick in the winter time, and not in sum- mer time, and we roasts them, and when they're done splitting they be a-done, and we takes them out with fork and eats them. Sometimes we has a jug heaped up, pretty near my pinafore full I loves them dearly.
 On the continent, too, winter time is the season to eat snails, and in Lent they may be eaten, like fish, on days of abstinence. Thousands are yearly sent to the Vienna market. where they find a ready sale. The majority of them come from snail farms where they are fattened on the leaves of cabbage and lettuce. They are. kept in inclosures surround ed by boards with spiked wire placed at the top to prevent them from es- caping. It is only when they have filled up the aperture of their shell with the calcareous membrane that they are considered to be in season. This they do at the beginning Of winter or during very dry weather. Tn Burgundy. where they may be con- sidered almost a national dish, the filling up of the aperture by the snail l is produced in an artificial manner.

STORM OF CANARY BIRDS.
Strange Things That Happened to a
 Vessel Off Coast of Acajutla.

It happened in the night, and ac- cording to the yarn spun yesterday by Captain Sandberg of the Panama lin CT City of Para it must have been a night of terror.
 The ship was midway between Aca- jutla and San Jose de Guatemala, which is a latitude in which the un- usual is expected. The time was be- tween 1 and o'clock in the morning, and it was very dark. Suddenly an electric storm of great ferocity came up from a revolutionary republic on the starboard quarter, accompanied by waterspouts, St Elmo's fire and a great flock of canary birds. Everyone knows that St Elmo's fire and water spouts are common off the coast of Acajulta, but the canary birds are a novelty.
 At the first stroke the lightning blew out the fuse in the ships dyna- mo and she became as dark as an abandoned trolley car. Then the St Elmo's fire lit on the foretopmast and split the gilt ball at the top of the topmast exactly into two hemispheres One of these fell into the water, the other struck the bridge and almost hit Second Officer Heckert.
 Third Officer Zual who had been of watch below, ran on deck. All the passengers followed Zual to the deck and the captain says that the passen. gers thought the end of the world had come. The storm was bad enough and the lightning was blinding, bu' it was the gerat birds that flew into the faces of the startled passengers 1T the darkness that caused the inde scribable terror.
 It lasted for an hour, and in the morning, when the storm had passed and the sun rose, there on the decks covering the awnings and almost fill ing the boats lashed on the upper deck, were thousands of dead and dy ing canary birds. Captain Sandbers says there were thousands of them Some of them had bluTdered into tht staterooms in the darkness after tn, electric lights were out.
 So the City of Para came safel, through the storm when it rained ca nary birds, all save the gilt ball a the top of the foretopmast, half O which was lost overboard.-Sar Francisco Chronicle.

DESTRUCTION OF FISHERIES.

That those who reap must SOW Is a law of nature exacted not only of the tiller of the soil, but also of many another reaper of natural wealth. It is particularly .applica- ble to the salmon canning industry of the Pacific coast, which, during recent years, has produced an ah- nual pack averaging over 4,000,000 cases of 200,000,000 pounds of sal mon; enough meat to have supplied the Russian or Japanese army in the field for many months. Over 40,000,00O of these fish have been taken from Pacific waters every sea- son for a number of years past. placed in tin coats of mail and dis tributed to the markets of six con- tinents. The tremendous drain upon the natural source of supply has been so exhausting that the salmon fisheries must soon have travelled the road of the mighty forests aA1 the vast herds of buffalo. had na- ture's resources alone been relied upon.
 The salmon packers of the Pacific coast have not considered the future They have allowed neither for pos terity nor even for their own old age. Their sole idea has been to pack as many salmon as their effec- tive and destructive fishing devices would impound during the grea' runs of these fish through Pacific waters: and with one or two notable exceptions they have given little heed to the maintenance of the sup ply. Like. unto the farmer who at harvest time sells. all his seed. they would have left nothins for

future harvests had not the federal and state governments taken hand and by stringent fisheries laws and intelligent methods of artificial pro- pagation set about to preserve this valuable. industry for the years to come.
 It is the fish's instinct to propa- gate and multiply which makes pos sible the salmon packing industry of the Pacific coast. Otherwise the sal- mon would remain in their ocean haunts. the whereabouts of which have never been determined, and there would be no industry. Every year in great numbers the salmon ascend the various streams of the Pacific coast to the spawning grounds at the headwaters. Here thwe females deposit their eggs. tho males fertilize them. and then both die, leaving the eggs to hatch and the young fry to take care of them- selves and fight their own way out to the ocean, from whence they re- turn, four years afterwards, full grown fish. eager to repeat the act of creation. If in any one season the salmon do not reach the spawn ing grounds, there is no run of sal- mon in that stream four years after ward. If heavy fishing at the mouth of one of these streams con- tinues so that only of these streams continues so that only few fish are allowed to pass on up. to the spawning grounds, then in few years the run begins to fall on and is likely to become entirely extinct. This Is what is happening at the present time in certain of the sal- mon packing districts of the Pacific coast-Daniel L. Pratt in Outing Magazine.

MAXINE ELLIOTT DIVORCED.
Nat Goodwin's Application on the
 Ground of Desertion Granted.

Reno. New. Oct 3.-Nat c. Good win yesterday obtained an absolute divorce from his wife, Jessie Dermott Goodwin, known as Maxine Elliott Judge Pike granted the decree on the ground of desertion. There was no semblance of a contest on the part of the attorney representing Mrs Good win. The decree and findings of the fact had been prepared, and were signed by Judge Pike before the par ties interested left the court room. the whole proceeding occupying II minutes.
 Goodwin gave his testimony in low voice. saying that his wife had deserted him. He told of having erected hotel in New York city in 1908 and engaged in the hotel busi- ness. Apartments were prepared for himself and wife he said; but on Mrs Goodwin's return from Europe in September she moved all the furni- ture she wanted to another room and refused to share the suite with him. He said he asked her If she intended living with him, and she replied in the negative.
 Shortly after this he went west and built home at Los Angeles, hoping that his wife would share it with him. He sent his manager, c. O.. Weeden to interview Mrs Goodwin on this subject, but Weedon reported his mission failure. According to Weedon Mrs Goodwin said to him that she did not intend to go down there, and MT Goodwin knew it. Goodwin stated that he had written to his wife several times, but never received answers to his letters, ex- cept when he asked for personal eff fleets.
 In response to question by Judge Pike, Goodwin said that he was 50 years old and that he was the senior of his wife by thirteen years.
