SEATTLE'S NEW AMENDMENT
WILL SOLVE PROBLEMS

Seattle.-The cities and towns Of
oregon and Idaho will
be interested To know that Seattle has
voted on a number of amendments at
the recent city election, which are
just now attracting widespread inter-
est wherever the forces OF good gov
ernment are at work. At present Sc
attic elects its councilmen by wards.
At the recent city election a charter
was adopted providing
for the election of councilmen at
large. mine in number. who will be
responsible to the whole people and
not to any one ward. 1t is charged
that under the system of electing
ward councilmen millions are wasted
In useless improvements in order to
make councilman strong in his par
ticular ward Under the councilman
at-large system it is held out that the
as have real merit.
The Seattle voters also cast their
votes in favor Of an amendment TAX
ing municipal elections out of party
politics. Hereafter there will be nom
partisan primaries held. The argu-
ment in support of this was that par
ty politics has no place in selecting
men to govern municipality. A civic
commission was created by the voters
which will have voice in selecting
the sites for city buildings, ETC.. this
all looking toward making Seattle a
"City Beautiful"

HISTORICAL LETTERS
IN ABANDONED ADOBE

Los Angeles, Cal.-A number of in
teresting documents recovered from
an outlaws hut, among them a letter
written by General Grant during the
siege of Vicksburg, were received
here recently, The Grant letter was
addressed to General Parks and con-
veyed orders relative to the operations
in front of the Confederate strong
hold. The others were papers sup
posed to have been stolen from Gen.
eral Manuel Garcia, OF the Mexican
army.
That the papers had been secreted
In the hut for many years was shown
by their condition, and by the fur
ther fact that the hut, a dilapidated
old adobe near Perris, was abandon
ed when the railroad supplanted the
stage line on the run between Los
Angeles and San Diego.
Sergeant Sebastian, of the police de-
partment, received the letters from q
friend who found them ridden in @
lcrevice of the hut. They will be turn
led over to a historical association.

GRINNING SKELETON is
FOUND IN HOLLOW TREE

Eugene, Ore.-To be confronted
with the grinning skeleton of man
standing upright in the hollow of
tree was the experience of a party of
timber cruisers in the employ of the
Lacey Lumber company, who are
working on Knowles creek on the Stu
slaw. The discovery was made on
Monday when member of the party
removed wooden slab covering the
aperture in the tree and the grew
some sight was revealed in all its
ghastliness.
Since the discovery the residents
along Knowles creek have INDUCED in
many speculations as to the identity
of the person whose bones have
bleached for apparently many years
in such an unaccustomed tomb. Some
are firm in the belief that foul
crime has been committed while 9TH
ers are of the opinion that a nomanic
tribe of Indians took this means OF
laying away one of their number who
| had died on the trail.
A thorough search of the premises
| is being made in an effort to discover
some clue leading to the identity OF
the victim.

A FREAK OF NATURE.
Horse COw-Deer Combined Is Found
In Ontario


Ottawa, Ont.-At the village of
Buckingham on the Quebec side of
the Ottawa river, few miles from
this city, is a horse, IL such 1t can be
called, that is only third part horse,
the other two parts being divided
equally between a cow and a deer.
AS a freak the animal probably has
no equal. The normal parts are its
head. eyes, teeth and one hind leg.
Its backbone is not in the center, but
runs along the side of its back. One
side of the stomach is that of a deer,
perfectly formed, with the fine close
set-in ribs, and the delicately curved
body. The other side resembles that
of COW, very full, with big, rough
ribs and the hide much rougher than
on the other side.
On one of its front legs there pro-
trudes a twin horn which measures
four feet and IL inches from the tip
to the base, turning up at the point
and weighing about 25 pounds. The
hind leg on the left side is put on
backwards, SO to speak. all the mus
cles of the leg are on the inside and
the hoof points backwards.

FRENCH WOMEN TO
DEMAND SUFFRAGE
SUFFRAGE CANDIDATES
START SELF-DENIAL FUND
Have Declared War Against All Re-
tiring Deputies-MOney to Be
Raised But Husbands Consent Nec-
essary Before Campaign.

Parls.-In the forthcoming French
Parliamentary elections the suffrag-
lists are to be up and doing. They
have declared war on the Deputies
who have hitherto refused to look
favorably upon their demands for the
Parliamentary vote. The suffragists
are to put forward candidates in as
many constituencies as possible.
Many of the retiring Deputies, terri
fled at having women for rival can
didates have already given their ad-
herence to the feminist movement,
and have promised in the new Par
lament to urge the extension of the
franchise to women.
Many Candidates.
Nine. Marguerite Durand, the chief
leader of the militant feminist move-
ment in France, declares that the or
ganization lacks but the slnews Of
war and not candidates. A self
denial" fund is to be instituted, and
the suffragists are to make an appeal
to their richer sisters to help in the
work. Nine. Durand is optimistic and
is convinced that before long her sex
benches at the Palais Bourbon. The
law in France, she adds, already re-
cognizes that women possess enough
brains to drive an automobile or taxi
cab. to heal the sick, and to plead
for the criminal before the Assize
Court "Why then, in the name Of
all that is wonderful" she demands,
should our sex not be allowed to
participate in the framing of the
laws?"
Get Husbands Consent.
These apostles to the new move
ment affirm that every Deputy who
does not adhere to the suffragist
movement in France will be opposed
| by woman. "If we even have a
dozen of our sex elected" she said,
ut will be an excellent beginning"
Three women candidates who have
already announced themselves are
Nine. Durand. Nine. Lilly Roussel.
] and Nine. Hubertine Auclerc. All
possess husbands. and there is one
little formality with which they will
have to comply. In the man-made-
French code it will be necessary TO
| obtain the consent of their respective
husbands before they can start on
their electioneering campaign to woo
the French elector. But the trio an
ticipate that the husbands concerned
win speedily capitulate.
