The possible realization of the pro ject for reopening the old empire If NebuchadneZZar to civilization, pro ject which only yesterday was a dream is foreshadowed by the efforts of the Turkish government to reclaim 12.500.- GOO acres of waste land in northern Mesopotamia through irrigation. Civ en the success of the experiment. the Babylonian monarchs may be referti- lized and repeopled with an industrious race and the worlds old granary re- stored after centuries of desolation. Mesopotamia carly greatness was due to system if irrigation canals in connection with the Tigris and Euphrates. It was by their neglect that it declined and was transformed into . sandy plain. the haunt of mo- mad races. Within recent times the engineer and the archaeologist have invaded it. the former plotting the route Of the BaGdad railway which is to unite it with the western world and the latter delving in the dust heaps which have disclosed in turn the state of NebuchadnezzaTs palace, the hall in which Belshazzar gave his feast and the very site of Babel. To reclaim it to cultivation will cost s20O, ,eOo. 900. and incidental to the scheme is the plan for colonizing the persecuted Russian Jews in the re- deemed territory.

Just as soon as the attorneys for the saloon men found out the names of boy witnesses. they sent for them, and in the presence of some saloon keepers they called the boys attention to the fact that if they testified before the district court to buying liquor in sa- looms they could and would be prose- cuted by the city authorities. fined, and sent 10 iail
 In another case. when q boy was named as a witness he was brought into the office of an attorney and. un- der q threat by two attorneys and two or three saloon keepers of being sent to the penitentiarv. he was compelled to make affidavit that had given him money to go into a saloon and buy liquor. The same boy. shortly after ward. went over to the residence of J. H. Langston and told Judge Langston how he had been threatened. His mother is lately widowed. They fright ened her to the extent that she advised the boy to stay out of sight so that he would not be called as witness, and she has sent him out of Arizona. We have the affidavits of three other boys mentioned in the affidavit of the first boy. that I did not offer money or any other consideration to the boy above mentioned. nor to them, but on the contrary that I had advised them to keep out of saloons. Anyone that wishes to know the names of the at torneys and saloon keepers who tried to intimidatc the boys can learn them at the Anti Saloon league headquarters. We hope to have the affidavit boy back here some time and will take the mat ter up then.
 We submit affidavits from three of the boy witnesses. Hoping that you will give this letter as wide publicity as you did the other side of the ques- tion. I am Very truly.

NIT suicide by walking into the Icy
waters of the Mississippi river. Peo-
pie who were standing nearby seeing
the attempt rescued him before he
had persisted In the watery grave
After he had recovered from the eff
fects of his icy bath Huismann told
the Davenport authorities that he SUI
fered from a sun stroke some years
ago which made him temporarily de-
ranged at times. He asked the author
tiles to send him to some insane asy-
lum SO he would not attempt suicide
again while insane. He was confined
in the Scott county jail awaiting the
arrival of friends from Brooklyn TO
take him back home and have him
cared for when he took his own life.

sWALEDALE LOSS $4,000.
Shaffer and caIlins Among tho Heav
lest Fire Sufferers.


Swaledale, Feb. 15.--The losses in
the disastrous fire in the business dis
trict of this town on Saturday after
noon Will total about $4,000
The hardware and harness stock and
buildings belonging to l.. r. Calkins
are a total loss. He estimated his hard
ware stock at $4,000 while his harness
stock and buildings will probably in
crease the loss to twice that amount.
w. A. Shaffer, who ran a general
store, suffers practically total loss.
Some of his stock was removed but
little of that handled in this way Is Of
value because badly soiled. The build
ing is a complete loss, estimated with
the stock to be about 100000. The bank
building which stood east of the Cal
kins building is practically wrecked tho
the frame work is left standing, and
the contents were removed. To repair
it will require almost as much an out
lay as a new building. The lumber yard
was slightly damaged.
Business places on the south side
of the street opposite the blaze suf-
fered considerably. In the Quackin-
boss building the drug store and an
implement house which stood next, all
the windows were broken by the heat.
The Vankirk building, in which is To-
Gated the postoffice and grocery store
was saved by wrapping the front with
blankets which were kept wet. Had it
not been for this the building would
have been consumed The fire was
checked about o'clock.
