POOR FATHER.

Children, hush! for fathers
resting; he is sitting, tired and
sore, with his feet upon the table
and his hat upon the floor. He
is wearied and exhausted by the
labors of the day; he has talked
about the tariff since the dawn
was cold and gray; he has lost
eight games of checkers, for his
luck today was mean, and that
luck was still against him when
he bucked the slot machine; so
his nerves are under tension, and
his brow is dark with care, and
the burden laid upon him seems
too great for him to bear. Stop
the clock, for it annoys him;
throttle that canary bird; take
the baby to the cellar, where its
bowling won't be heard; you
must speak in whispers, child

FRIDAY, AUG. a, 1911.

The Kamiah Progress came
out last week in a special edition
of IL pages that is the best we
have seen eminate from a small
town for 10 these many years.
The edition was printed on 2 nice
quality book paper, was well
written and profusely illustrated
with pictures of the Kamiah
homes, business houses, street
scenes, scenic views of the valley
and its orchards, and was an is
sue that was big credit to the
hustling editor of the Progress.
We hope he did it all himself and
did not let any travelling public
ity man walk off with all the
profits and most of the glory.

rem, for your fathers tired and
sore, and he seems to think the
ceiling is some kind of cuspidor.
Oh, he's broken down and beat
en- by the long and busy day;
he's been sitting in the feed
store on a bale of prairie hay,
telling how the hungry grafters
have the country by the throat,
how the tariff on dried apple
robs the poor man of his coat,
how this nasty polar rumpus
might be settled once for all
and his feet are on the table, and
his backs against the wall; let
him find his home a quiet and a
heart-consoling nest, for the
fathers worn and weary, and
his spirit longs for rest.

ORIENTAL RUGS.
Their Worth Hangs on the Number Of
Knots to the Square Inch.

Their Worth Hangs on the Number OF
Knots to the Square Inch.
For ages reaching far back into the
mists of antiquity. weaving has been
the work Of women. though the mod
ern factory of the west has brought
about changes in this respect. I'm
the unchanging east weaving is. with
few exceptions. women's work. In
the interior of Asiatic Turkey and in
Persia the patriarchal system still ex-
lists and the sons bring their wives
home to live l have known as many
as thirty-fiye persons to live in one
dwelling" writes Mrs. Eliza Dunn in
her book, rugs In Their Native
Land" '"The mother-in-law is queen
of the household, and every morning
assigns to each woman and girl her
task for the day" Methods of work
ing as well as patterns are traditional
according to the same author. and
some designs are peculiar to special
families or tribes and become so ia
miliar that the older workers produce
them from memory.
The art OF tying in the yarn has to
be learned very slowly. The young
er children are allowed to tie in only
one solid color on the plain back
ground, but when girl becomes fair
ly expert she is allowed to make a
whole rug, and traces Of individuality
may be looked for in her weaving.
The tive classes Of rug, Turkish and
Persian, are distinguished by the kind
of knot in which they are tied. the
Ghiordes, or Turkish. the Sienna. or
Persian knot.
The number of knots to the square
inch is one Of the tests of value Of a
modern rug. and the fact that more
can be tied to the square inch in a
Persian than in a Turkish rug &C.
counts for the greater fneness and
consequently greater costliness Of the
former.

FISHER TALKS ON ALASKA
Secretary Favors Leasing System In
Developing Coal Lands.

Chicago, Oct. 29.-Announcing that
he spoke officially and with the con.
sent of President Taft, Secretary of
the Interior Walter L. Fisher, before
the American Mining congress, de-
clared that the coal lands in the pub
lie domain in Alaska will be available
to the public under leasing system.
Secretary Fisher said that the gov
eminent might operate certain proper
ties as models and would lease the re-
mainder to private capitalists under
suitable government regulation. The
amount of land to be leased would be
limited, he said, to the area that
prof1tably could be mined to meet cur
rent demands for coal.

Rome, Oct. 29.-Fear that the So

to Italy's armed grab of Tripoli, has
caused Premier Giolitti to decide to
postpone indefinitely the meeting of

It is clear that there is great in.

COVERED DISHES.
First Ussd In the Dark Ages TO Guard
Food From Poison.


From the days when our ancestors
took their food in their hands and ate
It with as little ceremony as dog
gnaws a bone to the present time of
elaborate dinners is long step, but n
gradual one. 1t was number Of cen,
turtles before dishes Of any kind were
used, and knives and forks as adjuncts
to eating are later still. The fear of
poison which haunted the mind of
every person Of quality during the mid
die ages gave rise to certain curious
customs and even to certain supersti'
tons. When dishes are now served
covered, it is understood that it is mere.
ly for the purpose Of keeping them
warm. This was not, however, the
principal reason why they were serv.
ed covered during the dark ages. 1t
was the fear that poison might be In
troduced into them surreptitiously be-
tween the kitchen and the table where
they were to be served to the kings
or the lords or even to persons of infe'
rior rank.
The covers were not removed till the
master of the house had taken his
place. Ali dishes afterward served
were brought on the table in the same
manner. 1t was the custom originally
when the dishes were uncovered for
some of the servants to first partake
of them, but this custom was after
ward in part replaced by the servants
touching the food with one Of several
objects which were regarded as infali.
BILE preservatiyes against poison.

II YUAN HUNG
IS PRESIDENT
ProcIaIms Himself Provisional
Head Of China.
OFFICIAL NOTICE IS GIVEN
Foreign consuIs informed That New
Government Will Protect Inter-
ests Of Other Countries.

Shanghai, Oct. 2S.-General Lii Yuan
Hung has proclaimed himself proyi-
sional president of the new republic OF
China at Hankow.
Notification of the generals action
has been duly received by the foreign
consuls. who are assured that the pro-
visional government will do all in its
power to protect foreign interests dur
ing the present period of widespread
unrest.
Lii Yuan Hung has commanded the
rebel forces in and about Hankow
ever since the present outbreak be-
gan. It is believed his elevation of
himself to the presidency will be &C
copied by the revolutionists through
out the country.
The proclamation Of Chinese re-
public is the answer to the imperial
governments overtures implied In its
surrender Thursday to the nationals
demand for termination of the revo-
lutionary movement in consideration
Of immediate and sweeping reforms.
It is taken for granted that the gen.
eral did not take his present action
without satisfying himself concerning
the trend of popular opinion.
There is as yet no news from Han
kow when the advance against Peking,
threatened Thursday, will begin, but
the prediction made here is that Cen
eral Ii will proceed slowly, taking
town after town, until the capital is in
the natural spread of the revolution
ary movement.

ing the area of the uprising, disheart.

Sian was regarded as a government

Consular reports from Kiukiang say
the people burned the taotai's yamen
and declared in favor of the rebels.
The imperial troops made no serious
resistance.
Kaifeng, in the province of Honan,
is in a serious position because the 10.

TWO MEN BURNED
 BY FIREWORKS
H. W. Collins and J. C. Derby Injured About the
 Face and Hands

.. VI Collins and J. .. Derby, two young men. were badly burned yester- day morning at 7:30 o'clock, when some fireworks which they were examining in a small storehouse at Il Walnut street, West End, were set off, burning them about the face and hands. They were immediately taken to St Vineent's hos pital in the auto ambulance of Johns, where their injuries were dressed and they were given medical attention. Upon examination at the hospital, where it was stated that they were not seriously in- iured, 1t was announced they were badly burned about the face and hands and that their hair and eyebrows were singed.
 H. W. Collins Is a bookkeeper for Douglass & Co, on Morris avenue. The cause for the fireworks being kept in this remote place was the recent law which was passed which prohibits the storage of fireworks in the fire limits Douglass & Go. had a large supply of fireworks for theft Chffstmas trade and as a few packages were left over some / place had to bes secured where they could be kept. Collins place was secured as that was out of the fire limits and was a suitable place for a storehouse.
 It seems that Derby an employe o the Sloss-Sheffield company, came to th
 warehouse to secure some fireworks tt celebrate the Fourth. Both men wen into the warehouse to obtain them ant after Derby had secured several different kinds he opened a box of torpedoes tC inspect them and as he did so they ex ploded for some unknown reason anc Immediately set off the rest.
