TIE Walla Walla Commercial Club
has ran up against an unwritten law
of military dignity or preference.
when it planpcd an informal recep-
ton for the militia Company b, that
was mustered in on the 20lh ult.
The officers of the First Cavalry,
stationed at Fort Walla Walla. were
invited to attend without any thought
of the possible question of precedence
that have to obtain 10 4 more or less
extent in military intercourse that do
not exist in civil functions. 1t was
proposed to hold Il regclar reception
for the cavalry officers later on. and
the militiamen are veXcd that any
distinction be made, claiming that
they are as good as the tin soldiers.
The result therefore has not been
the success which the club intended
it should be, and fcclin. is said to
prevail that should not exist in tie
comradeship of the army and the
citizen soldicry.

rate is % cents for 10 words. night let
ter rate will be 25 cents for so words,
20 cents for 81 to 60 words, 35 cents
for 81 to 20 words, 40 cents for II TO
so words, As cents for 81 to 80 words
and so cents for 81 to 100 words, etc.
Where the day rate is more than 25
cents for ten words the charge will De
proportionately.
The Western Union Company will
call for these letters by messenger. re-
ceive them over the telephone or their
counters, as suits the customer.

on the part of ill-bred men as in the
United States. 1t is not the custom,
however, for French women to go
about much alone. even in the daytime.
Perhaps nowhere in the world is the
home life and family tie as strong as
in France. Mother and daughter are
almost like sisters, hence their occu-
pations and diversions are usually sim
liar and they rarely go out unless in
each others company. Even after
marriage a young woman usually does
her shopping with her mother or some
female relative or friend, not necessari
ly for protection but from habit or
choice.
In nearly all large cities, whether in
the United States or in Europe. there
is a large percentage of male adventur
ers and idlers from whose possible at
tentions it is wise to shield young girls
who would be unable to cope with
them. From this fact has arisen the
custom in France of their being &C
companied when going out.
The French policeman. when appeal
ed to, is always ready to aid and pro-
tect a woman from unwarranted perse-
cution or insult by men in public plac-
es. The law here is very strict about
such matters. If woman is troubled
by the attentions of a man in public
she can cause his arrest and have him
taken to a police station, where a
charge will be entertained against him,
and he may be fined or imprisoned.
But the drawback to this is that few
women of sensitive natures care to face
the attending notoriety of being fol-
lowed through the streets, together
with the policeman and the prisoner
to the police station, while having to
appear in court against the accused.
Hence, many prefer to undergo the an
noyance of persistent cads, rather than
make public scene and thereby be
compelled to undergo additional NOR
tification.

Tho Process 10 Simple, Though It Pug.
zled the Negro.
A sailboat in which were a white
man and several negroes had just left
the wharf near an ice factory at the
foot Of Main street, Annapolis, and
was headed out the mouth Of Severn
river, toward a point on the Chesa-
peake.
"Ye-e-th, thir," an old time colored
man was lsping, II like to git q
job workin' round that air ice plant

"Fll tell you how it is done, il you

well, in the first place, they have
a tank Of ammonia, to which small
amount Of heat is applied. 1t does not
take much heat to convert the am
monia into vapor, and even that heat
is used up in causing the liquid to ex-
pand into a gas, or become latent, as
it is called, SO that the temperature
is not materially affected.
Now, suppose the ammonia gas &C.
cupies hundred times as much space
as the liquid. 1t Is evident that the
liquid contains a certain amount of
heat, which is afterward distributed
over hundred times the space first
occupied. A cubic foot of the liquid
becomes hundred cubic feet Of gas,
and it is plain that a cubic foot of
gas will contain only one-hundredth
part of the heat originally in a cubic
foot Of liquid: hence the gas is much
colder than the liquid.
Now. this gas or vapor is allowed to
flow through pipes covered with salt
water, which becomes extremely cold,
but does not freeze. owing to the pres
ence Of salt The fresh water desired
to be frozen is put into large metal
cans and placed in the cold salt water
and allowed to freeze.
There is nothing mysterious about
the process. 1t is. in fact, very simple.

understand my explanations

Paris, March 7-Time is fleeting and
the memory of the public, like that of
individuals. is short. Already the
residents of the French capital have
lost first interest in the flood which
has held Paris in it's cruel grasp for
several weeks. Not that the danger
and inconvenience resulting from the
rise of the Seine has altogether disap-
peared, blu the French are a happy
hearted, not easily cowed race, who
quickly regain hope and their spirits
after a misfortune.
French system, method and official
efficiency, has, as usual, made itself
felt in the crisis which has just passed.
Prompt and effective action at the
right time have saved the day. AS a
result of the stringent measures taken
by the authorities, the danger of cpl
demic, following the conditions Great
ed by the flood, has to a great extent
disappeared.
Not daunted by the death threaten
ing waters. arrangements for the Mi
Careme Tor Mid-Lent festivities, have
gone on. To make up for the custo-
mary annual Mardi-Gras celebration,
which, under the circumstances, result
ing from the floods, it was decided
best to postpone. Parisians will en-
ter into the carnivaIs spirit with even
greater zest than ever.

A Frenchman who appears to have
been of thrifty turn Of mind con-
ceived the idea in 1873 that too much
valuable time was being wasted In
cleaning sardines when preparing them
for the market. He found a way Of
preparing them without cleaning them,
and on this he took out letters patent.
Apparently he had some slight misgiv-
ing as to whether the public would be
perfectly suited with his invention.
and so in his claim he makes this
parenthetical entry:
