POLICE DOGS FAIL
TO ADOPT Adopts

Paris.-Police dogs are useless in
tracking the aristocracy of the French
criminal community, as was shown in
recent case in Paris A series OF
daring burglaries had been committed
at Chantilly, Malmaison and other
fashionable resorts near Paris, and
were pronounced by detectives to be
the work Of one man.
In his last job the burglar left be-
hind him pair OF shirt cuffs. Here
was valuable clue, thought the po-
lice. Immediately Cherry, the best
police dog in Paris, was sent for and
the hunt began. the detectives follow
ing hot fot. The trail was wearisome,
over hedges and stiles, through fields
and bitches, the dog led them until a
small stream was reached. Here
Cherry lost the scent completely, and
the manhunters returned discomfited,
the disappointment being all the
greater because the burglary was an
affair of some Importance, $4,000
worth Of jewelry having been stolen.

Purely by accident the burglar fl

Thus the police have run up against
the problem how to circumvent the

WHEAT CROP ENDANGERED.
Conditions in Whitman County Arouse
Fear That Yield Will Be
Under Average.

Colfax, wash.-Wheat prospects in
western Whitman county are not as
promising as last year. r. M Curtis
and j. w. Splater, two extensive
ranchers from Hay Station, say that
the best looking wheat in that section
seems to be that which has been farm
cd the least, giving as the reason that
the well-tended fields packed and
baked during heavy rains after the
heavy SHOWS of last winter, while the
INTENDED fields were left rough and
did not pack
Many parts Of the county have not
finished seeding. Heavy frosts have
injured some fields. and many hilltops
have winter killed. Spring grain Will
require best Of conditions to make the
average yield.
Many are confident that when the
harvest is ready the unfavorable ele-
ments which appear each spring will
have left and whitman county will
rank as usual as banner wheat

COMET WILL NOT
 CONSUME THE EARTH.

London. March 12-(Special.) )-By the time Halley's comet arrives 1t will have lost the last shred of it's reputation.
 Astronomers have already declared that it will not consume the earth. Sir David Gill. late astronomer royal at the Cape, went so far in a lecture to the Horticul- tural hall recently as to deny that it can exercise any political influence or even affect the weather.
 People always seem to have thought tfa something wss sure to happen every time a comet Lecame visible,' he said, ''as If something did not happen every day. How can comet hundred millions of miles away cause a flood fri Paris, say, and dry weather in Egypt on the same day?
 - "Halley's comet appeared in 1885, and it is to apepar again in May. According to the superstitious it must be a political comet, because the representation of the two main parties in the house of com mons Is practically the same now as it was in 1885.
 'In 1885 there was a dissolution. and this year also there is to be a dissolu- tion," he declared amid laughter. There were 3S5 liberals in 1885 and there are 383 in 1910, while the number of the opposition is exactly the same now as then-273.
 When the comet appeared in 1066," he continued. ''the Pope of that day, 1t is alleged, denounced the comet, the Iurks and the devil in one pull. But 1t has been shown that the excommunication applied to the Turks and the devil only and not to the comet.
 'Somets' tails always turn away from the sun. The worst of it is that nobody knows exactly what they are.
 Some people think they consist of very minute matter thrown off by the action of the sun, and others think the tails are electrical affairs, because they cannot be- lieve the tails could travel so far"
 He added that the comet would give It's most gorgeous display on May 21.

THE QUEENS JEWELS
Socialist Papers Comment on Alleged
 Extravagance.

London, March 12.-(Special.) .)-Socialist journals in South Germany have seized on particulars of the jewels worn by the German Empress at the court festivities which have just come to an end to criti- else what they are pleased to term the appalling extravaganza by the mother of the nation in this respect.
 At the most important court balls and l;anquets the Empress wore jewels to the value of $1,250, 900. These included g. large diamond tiara, a. necklace of pearls and diamonds. several diamond bracelets, dia- mond rings on all her fingers, a diamond chain wound round the waist, and the train of the dress was decked with won derful precious stones. A few superf1u- GUS stones were affixed to the imperial fan.
 During the court functions two pages are intrusted with the duty of watching the Empress incesss ntly to make sure that noEe of her precious stones fall off.
 Most of the jewelry Is not the Empress rriyate property, but the property of the Prussian crown. and descends from Erl- press to Empress The Empress own iewelry Is worth less than that of many middle-class ladies'
 At the conclusion of each court festivity ,he crown jewels are replaced in a fire proof safe, where they are carefully guarded day and night. None but ladies' in-waiting (all of high birth) are allowed to deck the Empress with her jewels aId to remove them afterwards.

Mines and Buried Treas.

The mineral wealth of the south has hardly been scratched. Untold millions in gold, silver, iion and copper mines await the fortunate man or men who discover their true location.
 wonderful instrument called the Span- ,sh Magnetic Needle has recently been perfected, which has been used with wcn- derful accuracy in discovering both mines and treasures. The needle has inter- changeable parts designed for use to in- dicate the particular mineral sought for. Iost and buried treasures of money, gold and silver are located. Successful miners and prospectors use these needles. but In the past they have been very difficult to obtain. We understand, however, that the Prospectors' and Miners Agency of Palmyra, Pa, handle a complete line of these needles and other mineral rods and would be glad to correspond with anyone interested in the subject.

REGRETTABLE CONFLICT
Between Jewish Community and Rabb
 Leweneteiu.

Copenhagen, March 12.-(Special. )-Tte regrettable conflict between the Jewish community and it's chief rabbi, Dr. Lew erstein, hes not yet been settled. The difference relates not only to the recep- ton into Judiism of persons of other faiths, but also to the prayer for the King and the celebration of a Danish iclidsy, in these matters Dr. Lewenstein is opposing an rrberdipg spirit of tradi- tiol al orthodoxy to the more progressive ard "assimilative" ideas that prevail among Danish Jewry.
 On a previous occasion two years ago the board of management of the coni- munity applied to the ministry of public orship to cancel the chief rabbi's ap- pointment (which in Denmark has to re- ceive government sanction). but the min is,try then refused to do so. Now, how ever, the board has determined to pur- sue a different course, holding that the nere fact of its having dismissed Dr. Lewenstein cancels the government's sanction of the appointment. The minis try has informed Dr. Lewenstein that IL does not want cry statement from him CT the subject, but as in this communica- tion it a dresses him as chief rabbi of the Jewish community little can be inferred as to the governments attitude in the matter Meanwt :le, tho board. which, it is to be presumed. will be allowed to have it's own way in the end has deprived Dr Lewenstein of his special seat in the synagogue.

March (Special.)-A few days ago telephone message was sent from the court chamberlain's office to Herr Fischer, the well-known organist of the Emperor William Memorial church, to say that the German emperor. accompa- nied by the Prince and Princess of Rou- mania, wished to inspect the large organ
 In great haste the organist was sum- nioned from a neighboring school, as he was In the middle of singing lesson, and he just had time to reach the church before the distinguished visitors. The German emperor hoped they had not kept he organist waiting very long. and then expressed a desire to hear the organ. While Herr Fischer played two famous Lutheran chorales the emperor stood by his side. How beautiful the old melo- dies are when they are played so well, '' said the emperor; and as the last notes died away he turned to the organist and said: "Now, professor. please play us something by Bach.'' Then airs by Han del and other famous composers followed. At last the emperor began to take his leave and, taking the organist's hand.

Senator Johnston of Alabama is a mem Der of the military affairs committee of the Senate and frequently has to make reports on the records of old soldiers of the union army who want their records corrected. Recently he made report on the record of an old soldier in Michigan. The old man had been charged with de- sertion. It was discovered in examining the rvcords that he had served through out the war, had fought fin many bat ties, and had carried the flag of truce in one of the late engagements of the war in which Colonel Mosby figured. Senator Johnston made his report on the claim, and 1t was couched in such stormy terms favorable to the applicant that he was the recipient of many telegrams and let ters from Michigan.

 What is this honor, professor?" asked his majesty.

 Never mind about that-if you arc not a professor. What I have said I have said. Good-by, dear professor"
 Soon afterwards Herr Fischer received officially the title of professor.
