The Woman's Department.
There was a group of right clever
little wide of wake ladies running
things in the Woman's Department
which was in charge of a charming
Albanian, Mrs. Reid.
A great deal of the success attend
ing the fair, by the way, had been
due to the efforts of a WOman-Miss
Celia Robinson, whom everyone
knows is a clever little authOress.
Miss Margaret Mcintyre (whO, by the
way, objects strenuOusly to seeing her
name in print) also labored zealously
and well in the cause, and charming
little Mrs. Bear was here and there
night invaluable.
Across, in The Journal booth, was
Miss Celestine HiTscher, a good look
ing child, and the best little business
woman imaginable.
The trouble about tarrying in the
Woman's Department, with it's array
of fine things to eat-was that you
got so all mighty-hungry- peo-
pie in there didn't appear to be overly
charitable, eitheT-that you didn't
tarry long, unless you were right
strong minded, but made a fresh
break, rather, for the great out OF
doors, to frisk nOticeably among the
impossible rot that some vendors put
up to eat
Once out of doors, you began all
over again-threw rings at ducks and
watched horse shows and live stock
and peOple-and so on and so on.

Here are a number Of don'ts for
smokers, some Of which no doubt will
surprise a good many men: Don't
smoke directly after a meal. There is
the most irresistible craving to smoke,
but it Is wiser to wait a half hour or
an hour. Don't smoke out Of doors
In a high wind or in cold, frosty
weather. In the former case it is dan
gerOus, and in the latter it cracks the
lips and prevents proper breathing
Don't smoke with the cigar or pipe
held at the corner Of the mouth. This
excites the secretion Of more saliva
than when the cigar or pipe is held
straight in front. And, above all,
don't get in the bad habit Of expecto-
rating frequently when smoking. 1t
is quite unnecessary and merely hab-
1t and harmful.-St. Louis Post-Dis-
patch.

PRIZE FIGHT BILL
RECEIVES KNOCKOUT

Salem, Or, Feb. 17.-For the Sec
ond time the Davis prizefighting bill
was killed by the house last night
This time it received only eight affir-
native votes out of sixty.
Calkins of Lane moved for the re-
consideration of the bill. He said
Davis had been absent when the bill
was defeated which was contrary to
custom.
Davis said he had not been treated
fairly, that the bill had been brought
up during his absence and defeated.
He thought it was only right that
he should be given an opportunity to
show what the bill was and let the
house do as it pleased.
The idea was that the bill was
along the line of athletic sports, said
Davis. 1t was not a prizefighting bill
In any sense.
Upon motion of McCue, the house
went into committee of the whole to
amend the bill. The vote was a tie,
and Macarthur cast the deciding vote
and cast his voice with the affirma-
tive. As a result of this the bill was
put back in the same shape as origi-
nally, which restricted the 10 round
bouts to cities of $4,000 inhabitants.

An Obedient Tiner.

"How entire" remarks the London
Globe, "is the confidence of the native
East Indian in the government may be
gathered from the following anecdote,
which comes from Lahore; A tiger
had escaped from the geological gar
dens, and It's keeper, hoping to lure 1t
back, followed it. When all other in
ducements had failed, he lifted up his
voice and solemnly adjured it in the
name of the British government, to
which 1t belonged, to come back to its
cage. The tiger, it is needless to add,
obeyed at once"

SENATORS CLASH
OVER MULTI BILL

Salem. or, Feb. 17.-Senntors Sell
! ing and Bailey came close to the
N"shorter and uglier words in a
clash over the Multi pardon bill in
the senate yesterday afternoon. It all
came about because Selling had re-
ferred to the attitude Of Mrs. Mile
Trumbull an official of the Prison
er's Aid society. as being opposed to
the bill and to Bailey's having stated
that Selling was talking through his
hat"
Selling read several letters includ-
ing one from Mrs. Trumbull, TO sup
port what he said, remarking that
these proved the statement of Bailey
to be absolutely false"
Bailey did not relish this. and as
soon as he could he took the floor
on a question of personal privileges
He declared that he meant wnat he
said when he accused Selling of arti-
cuatng through his head covering,
and he interpreted the letter of Mrs.
Trumbull as bearing out his version.
He called on his colleagues to prove
that the bill had been amended in
the way Mrs. Trumbull wanted 1t, and
that it was due to some later influ-
ence that she became an opponent of
the bill.
Bailey said the opposition came
from the society of associated graft |
in Portland which charges 80 cents
for 10 cents worth of charity and |
now fights the bill because 1t finds
it will not be able to control the board |
of pardons."

DC. BROWNELL FOR
SUPERINTENDENT
UAIATTLLA MAN WOULD
SUPERVISE WATER FLOW
If Water Code Becomes Law Friends
VIII Ask Governor TO Make Ap-
pointment-Is Practical Irrigation
lst OF Lifetime Experlcnce-Post in
Future TO BE Notwithstanding
ton Also u Candidate.

D, C. Brownell, the prominent and
successful irrigationist of Umatilla, is
candidate for the office Of superin-
tendent of water division No. 2,
which will embrace the counties of
eastern Oregon, excepting klamath
and Lake counties, providing the wa
ter code now before the Legislature
becomes a law.
Under the law there is to be. a su-
perlntendent for each Of the two dis
tricts of the state, one for western
Oregon and one for eastern. In the
western division lies all of klamath
and Lake counties, excepting those
districts drained by the Deschutes
river. The salary Of a superintendent
will be $4,000 per year and travelling
expenses will also be allowed. The
term of office is for four years and
in the future will be elective. Should
the bill become a law the governor
VIII appoint superintendents TO serve
until the next state election.
In support Of Mr.. BrownelIs can
didacy it is urged that he will repre-
sent the interests of the actual irriga-
tionists and especially of the smaller
water users. He himself has a small
Carey act project near Umatilla and
is one Of the best posted men in the
state upon the subject Of irrigation.
He has passed his entire life as an
irrigationist and though not techni-
cally an engineer is unusually famil-
lar with such work.
Various people of this section are
now urging the governor to appoint
Mr. Brownell to the superintendency
should the water code be adopted. He
also has considerable support from
other sections.
At this time the only two avowed
candidates for the candidacy are Mr.
Brownell and Mr.. Irving Worthing-
ton Of Irrigon.

Miniature Trees That Are Grown ~
China Bowls.
In the window Of florist stood some
quaint china bowls, in each of which
grew tree-nOt Il shrub, but a full
sized tree, dating back many years.
Yes" replied the florist to the writ
er's inquiry, they are real trees-oaks,
naples and beech trees. We get them
from Japan, where the secret of how
to rear them is known only to II few.
They are raised from seeds or special
ly selected cuttings, which are watch
ed and tended with that marvellous
patience inherent in the eastern races.
Fifty years may pass before the tree
Is considered salable. During this pc.
riod the plant is trained and its nat
ural tendencies subjugated to the will
Of the rearer. The gardener prunes
and trims and rears and directs with
what Carlyle called genius-'an inf.
mite capacity for taking pains \ way
ward twig may be bound up for two
or three years TO insure its correct
growth. Periodically the tree is re-
potted. Each time this happens the
roots are carefully examined and use
less fiber cut away. Everything is
done to concentrate the life of the
tree in the smallest possible space.
And in time, after years Of labor, the
plant loses its ability to send out long,
lusty shoots and becomes a delightful
miniature Of Its larger brethren."-
