The Intelligent Censor.

Some years ago young man of st.
Petersburg. Ivan Fedowski, quarreled
with his sweetheart and then took his
grief out of the country. About year
after he wrote to the girl asking her to
make up" and telling her If she for
gave him to insert personal" to that
effect in a st. Petersburg paper not
later than a certain date. The girl was
repentant, too, and she promptly got
the personal" ready, and all would
have been well had 1t not been for the
lynx eyed censor, who believed 1t to be
some sort Of nihillst message and re-
fused to allow its publication. After
awhile, however, the stern official was
convinced that the personal" was
harmless, and 1t was printed four days
late. 1t was little while after when,
the girl received word that her lover,
having failed to see the message in,
print on the day he had set. had shot.

light.

At the last meeting of the Caldwell
l. o. o. F. lodge, the trustees were
authorized and instructed to purchase
the land adjoining the tract given
the grand lodge by Hon. M. B. Gwinn
for an Odd Fellows home. This will
clear up this matter, and the i'm
provement of the grounds will be
started at once. The grand lodge
at it's Grangeville meeting gave
Caldwell 80 days in which to secure
the grounds. 1t also expressed its
purpose and desire that immediate
attention be given the improvement of
the land 1t may not be generally
known that the interest on the home
fund this last year amounted to
100000. We do not know the amount
in the fund or the rate of interest.
Such funds are usually loaned at a
low rate on ample security. If the
rate were even per cent there must
be 100000 in the fund at the pres
ent time. The home will be a magni-
ficent institution and Caldwell should
feel forever grateful to M. B. Gwinn
for enabling this city to secure it.

The Register and Receiver of the
Boise Land Office, in decision hand
ed down Tuesday in the case of Robt.
Farrar VS.. A. N. Brown, invading
quarter section in township north,
range west, held that it is necessary
to show absolute proof that a home
stead entry is made for speculation
and sale before the validity of the
entryman's right shall be declared
forfeited.
Another question involved in the
decision was as follows:
1t is unnecessary, perhaps, to dis
cuss the question that is thus raised,
since, as matter of fact, the entry
man did establish residence within six
months after making entry. If, how
ever, what appears to have been the
theory of the contestant were true, it
would not follow that this contest
could be permitted to stand. The first
affidavit, that filed on March IL, sim
ply charged that the entry was made
for speculative purposes. There was
no allegation whatever that the entry
man was in default as to residence
Subsequently, an amendatory affidavit
was filed making such a charge, but
this, in our judgment, could not be
raised to the original affidavit; that is
after filing an affidavit on March II
charging speculation only, the entry
man could not secure cancellation OF
the entry on an amended affidavit
charging default as to residence, this
amended affidavit having been filet
long after the default had been cured

Extraordinary conduct on the part OF
two men upon seeing the body of a
woman in the water was disclosed at
an inquest held at the Victory inn, on

mother one morning and on searching
found her lying face upward in a road

borer named Matthews, who passed
the pond, also ran away, neither max

That sattInd Il.

The commissioners in lunacy were
nonplused. The man on whose mental
condition the courts had appointed
them to pass seemed perfectly sane IL
spite OF all testimony to the contrary
His every action, his every remark
was rational. They were about to give
up in despair when matters took an
unexpected turn. "Oh, doctor, permit
me to return the umbrella l borrowed
from you last week." said the patient.
And then, at the thought OF earning
their fees with no qualms of con-
science. the learned men decided that
any one who would voluntarily return
borrowed umbrella should be placed
under restraint.
This simply proves how tribes will
ever mold our destinies.-New York

THE WORD "BANzAl."
Il Has Been Used In Japan From tho
Earliest Ages.

u Has 6een Used IN Japan from Sne
Earliest Ages.
1t is not infrequent to find men spec
uiating as to the origin of the now ia
miliar "banzai," and we believe that q
general impression classes this excel
lent ejaculation among the inventions
Of modern Japan. Quite recently In
deed we heard learned japanese de-
clare that the late Professor Toyama
was the originator of the word as the
Japanese equivalent of "hurrah." But
the truth is that ''banzar' belongs to
a very much remoter date. History
shows that 1t was used certainly as
long ago as the year 4S6 A. D., and
probably It was not an innovation
even then. In the Chronicles Of ia
pan," a work published In the year
800 A. D., it is related that in the
spring OF 4S6 A. d. the Emperor
Woke. remembered by posterlty as
"Kenzo, Tenno," repaired to the park
of the summer hall and there held
revel by the winding streams" His
guests were a cOncourse of ministers
and of high officials known at that
epoch under the titles Of Omi. MuraJi
and Miyakko When the feast was al
its height the guests. we read, raised
repeated cries OF banZal." 1t may
fairly be assumed that this formula
of graduation did not originate then
but at any rate its undoubted use In
Japan more than fourteen centuries
ago deprives any Neil savant of the
credit of. having invented it.-Japar

REDpS EXPERIMENT.
9 Of It. Grew the Great Fabric Of the
Germ Theory.

Germ Theory.
1t was a fixed belief of the ancients
that many living creatures could come
INTO existence in a spontaneous fash
lOn, to which allusion has often been
made. The true beginning of the germ
theory arose out of a ludicrously SIM
pie observation made by Redi Flor
Bntine physician, about the middle of
he seventeenth century. He debated
with his confreres in Florence the
question Of the origin of the maggots
appearing In decomposing meat. The
I'D view held, Of course, that the mag
cots were bred within dead and putre-
lying substances. Redl, taking a piece
of meat, covered the mouth of the jar
N which 1t was contained with piece
If fine gauze. He beheld the flesh flies,
attracted by the smell of the decaying
meat, coming to deposit their eggs, aft
Or the manner OF their kind in the de-
composing substance. The gauZe, how
EVER, kept them from effectlng this
natural object. with the result that the
Eggs were laid on the surface of the
Eauze and the maggots there Matched
out, while the decay Of the meat went
On uninterruptedly without single
maggot appearing in its substance.
On this childishly simple experiment
the great fabric Of the germ theory of
today was founded. for II the law of
universal parentage applied to the case
IF maggots and meat 1t was clear, ar
Eued Redi, that 1t must apply univer-
sally. Subsequent experimentation
proved the words to be true, and 80 to-
day, when our attention is focused upon
germs or microbes so minute that we
might accommodate many hundreds of
thousands of them on the surface of a
postage stamp, we again come face to
face with Redrs first principle that
each germ could only have sprung
from preceding and parental organ
