ton of building a line

there is nobody living who can do the

he appreciates his inability to DO JUS
tice to its resources and its climate

HURT
IN A RUNAWAY

Charley Hoodenp,le was this morn
ing thrown from his delivery wagon,
which he drives for the Brown Groc-
cry Co., and was very severely injur-
ed i'm the side. The accident took
place on the corner OF Fourth and
Grand avenue and WIS caused by the
horse taking fright at II street car.
The animal cramped and broke the
single tree letting the shafts drop To
the ground which greatly excited the
horse and caused il TO rear and
plunge around and run in II circle.
The contents of the wagon were seat
tered over block and flour was
spilled in great quantities.
When almost in front of the boys
home the wagon tipped over and he
was struck by the seat in falling. He
was carried into his home and has
been confined To his bed under the
care of II nurse all day.
Unless there are internal injuries,
however, the hurts received will not
prove serious and he will he able to
go TO work again in few days.
The wagon was badly damaged.

DEATH CLAIMS LITTLE BOY.

This morning at $50 O'Clock. at
st. Mary's hospital, Eugene Field
Miner, aged 10 years months and
5 days, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Judge NJ
Miner, passed from earth to rejoin
the Creator in Paradise of Eternity

i'll but for the past Two or three
weeks he had been slowly improving
For some days past every hope for
his ultimate and complete recovery
was cherished by the family and
friends but during the last twenty
four hours there came sudden re
lapse, the frail and worn little body
could not withstand this attack and
the Angel of Death came and called
the beloved boy from earthly scenes.
The child suffered from typhoid
fever. He was an extremely bright
and intelligent boy. sunny in DISPOSE
toin and lovable in his manners. The
child was born in Chicago
The deceased is survived by his
mother and father and one sister,
Hazel, aged Z years.
The funeral arrangements are be
ing perfected by Undertaken Hattie
G. Pearson.
The father of the deceased is the
editor of the Weekly Herald.
A most pathetic circumstance is
the fact that both the mother and
little sister are seriously i'll at St
Mary's hospital at this time.

pathy of great circle of friends.

PLANTING School Grounds.

Public planting, especially in small
centers of population, is often carried
out in the same hasty, misguided man
ner as are too many marriages. We
plant in haste only to repent at lei
sure. While wholesale enthusiasm is
needed, do not allow it to dictate rush
ing to the school grounds and planting
few trees. We often fail by not
making our several efforts continuous
after the first feverish wave, but we
should thoroughly organize when 1t is
seen that a sufficient number will re-
spOnd, says the Los Angeles Times.
After organization is effected a proper
plan should be secured before any
thing is done more than TO stir the
soil. All work must be well ordered,
but enthusiasm must not be allowed
to wane, because every one in the dis
trict is needed to stand behind this
meritorious move. Parents and pu-
pills must all be back for the work
and not leave too much to the teacher.
The latter should not be expected TO
evidence a similar amount of interest,
for the tenure of Office of the average
teacher is generally short. and the
work must continue for years if the
best results are accomplished. Some
one well qualified should have charge
of and oversee all work, though the
attending pupils should be interested
and allowed to participate in so far as
is practicable.

NIAGARA IS NIUE
Great Falls Run Dry For Second

Buffalo. N. Y, April 12-The voice
of Niagara is mute for the second
time in the memory of man. The
first time was late ia February when,
following a severe northerly blow, the
falls, ran, dry Now, following a Sc
we're Southwestern, the river is frozen
solid from bank to bank.
Unprecedented weather has brought
about unprecedented conditions On
Wednesday of last week the. worst
gale of the season and the most VIC
lent in the history of the weather bu-
reau for April was recorded, and fol-
lowing the lakes and the channel of
the Niagara, left ruin in its. wake.
The solid ice fields of Lake Erie were
churned from end to end and piled in
huge conglomerate mass at, the
lower end of the lake,
Unable. TO escape by its natural
channels, the level of the river rose
by leaps and bounds. The highest
flood level recorded from previous
years is 2S feet above the normal.
Friday night the river was 40 feet
above normal. Water poured over the
window sills of the power house of
the Ontario Power company and flood
ed the machines. The tracks of the
Great Gorge route were covered from
the lower steel arch bridge to Lewis
ton. Conservative estimates place the
damage at $1,000000.

THE SOUTH POLE.

s The near approach to the South
Pole by Lieutenant Shackleton has
reused new interest in the attempts
of the various nations of the world
to reach one or the other of the poles.
Some of the scientific benefits and
results of the voyages which so many
think of as fruitless, may be noted:
One fact which is now brought out
more distinctly than hitherto is that
the South magnetic pole, like the
North magnetic pole, is shifting its
position. Amundsen's observations
showed that the latter was not where
Ross located it more than half a
century ago. The former has not only
been moving In similar fashion, but
surveys made by members of Lieuten-
ant Shackleton's party indicate that
at present its motion is not eastward,
as has been supposed, but northwest
ward. The discovery is of import
ance to the navigator, and will un-
deubtedly be utilized by those experts
who from time to time revise magnetic
charts for ship captains. Without
such information the most careful
steering by compass may possibly
lead to shipwreck. Obviously, too,
new observations must be made every
few years, to learn what changes in
the deviation Of the magnetic needle
occur in the intervening periods.
Whether the region surrounding the
South geographical pole is vast ar
ehipelago, resembling that which lies
along the Arctic front of North Amer
lea, or is a continent, has hitherto
been largely matter of speculation.
AThesecond theory, though not fully
Established, is rendered far more
redible than ever before by Lieuten-

Plan to Solve Problem of Objection.
able Outdoor Advertising.
The fight against the unsightly bill
boards which has been in progress
throughout the United States for sev
eral years has resulted in the attempt
being made to pass a law in the Mas.
sachusetts legislature which will pro
vide for the posting of bills under ce1
tain conditions.
The bill provides that tire highway
commission pass first on the billboard
and then that a tax be paid of 1C
cents a square foot for the privilege
Of displaying it.
The bill was presented as the result
of the petition Of George B. Upham
who has done much in the way of re
form along these lines. 1t was intro
duced in the legislature by Repre-
sentative Norman H. White of Brook
line, Mass. ..1-
Agents would be established all owe
the state to issue the licenses. Every
billboard could be tagged in a simple
manner to show that the license had
been obtained.
This would not affect signs posted
for. seven days or under and would
not include legal notices and notices
of approaching meetings, but would
refer to permanent signs, such as ad
vertising signs in general. Should Z
license be obtained shortly before the
new year it would have thirty days &c
run before the next years license
would be required.

Washington, April 1.-THE prac-

ported and of using such overvalua-
ton as a basis for claims against
railroad companies when the beef is
injured or destroyed in transit, must
be stopped at once, according to a

against one of the large beef packing
companies of Chicago. These COM

placed a fictitious value on dressed
beef claimed to have been injured or
destroyed in transit.
The attorney general has informed
the company that it must stop this
practice, and has suggested to the

WHAT ABOUT THE DUsT3

The Council should do something
at once to relieve us of the dust
nuisance. We have seen many of our
merchants who are complaining bit
terly over the delay in oiling the
streets. They are ready to pay their
part and to do their part but for some
cause the Council has failed to pro-
vide the oil. Hundreds of dollars
of merchandise is being destroyed by
the dust, prospective buyers cannot
go on the streets and business is Sc
riously injured.
We hope the Council will act inn
mediately and have the oil ordered
at once and get to work on reducing
the dust.
We would suggest that until the
oil comes, the fire department be in
structed to, each morning, sprinkle
the business streets. This could be
easily done by attaching the fire hose
to the hydrents and would not take
a great amountof time, but would be
great benefit to our merchants and
shoppers.

ant Shackleton's wonderful exploit
His ability to. get within a hundred
geographical miles of the pole with
out encountering a strait is extreme
ly suggestive. Fuller evidence, OBJ
tanned by approaching the same goal
from other directions, is needed to
complete the demonstration, but pro-
jects for exploration for that purpose
viii receive great encouragement from
his performance.
Two American ideas have proved
exceedingly helpful to the daring
British naval officer who planted the
Union Jack in south latitude 80 %.
One is Evelyn Baldwin's substitution
of Siberian ponies for dogs in draw
ing sledges. The other is Commander
Peary's old system of establishing
depots Of provisions along a possible
line of retreat. Both may be ex-
pected 10 prove equally serviceable tc
other Antarctic explorers. Lieuten-
ant Sheckleton's success will I'M
doubtedly stimulate a desire to com
plete the work so well begun by him
The coal beds found within five
degrees Of the South Pole can hardly
possess commercial value, but theii
existence raises an interes ting ques-
ton concerning the changes of eli
mate which Antarctica has undergon;
since they were laid down. Such de
posts in Europe and the United
States have been regarded as tn
product Of a vegetable growth Of
tropical luxuriance, and it is suppos
ed that they were formed at perioC
of the earth's history when the glob
was hotter than it is now. If sucl
conditions once existed close to TIL
South Pole, there must have been
vastly greater change of Temperature,
there than has occurred in the tenn
operate zones. An inconsistency foi
|geologists and astronomers to explain
us thus suggested.
