TO CANCEL WATER RIGHTS
settiers on the UmatilIa Project Re-
ceive Notice of Intention to Be Put
on Blacklist and Water Users As
sociation Comes to Their Rcscue
Especial Correspondence.D J

Hermiston, Ore, Nov. 2S.-Severa,
OF the land owners under the Umatil-
la government project recently receiy-
ed from the general land office al
Washington notices that their water
rights have been held for cancella-
ton on account of the nonpayment of
dues. These notices were signed by
the assistant U. S. commissioner
They allowed the applicant 80 days to
make payment, threatening to can
eel without further notice.
The commissioner held that when
building and maintenance charge
are both due that it makes the two
charges delinquent at the same time
and for that reason the water right
is held for cancellation.
The secretary of the Water Users
association sent telegram to the
commissioner of the general land Of
flee, stating that this is mistake,
and has received letter in which the
land office at Washington has con-
firmed the telegram of the secretary
of the Water Users association. and
state in their letter that the cancel
lations have been recalled and that
the water rights would remain intact.
There are several holders who have
received this letter from the govern
ment, and all have paid their 1908
and 1909 charges but the building
charge and maintenance for 1910 is
not paid, and they are allowed until
March l, 1912, to make this payment.
If the payment on the water right
is not made, it is up to the Water
Users association to forecose on the
land and not for the government to
cancel any water rights
1t seems to the people that the gov
ernment needs some one at Washing
ton who will understand the workings
of the office, and not those who are
trying to make it hard for the settler
Some of these people who have re-
ceived these notices understand that
simply a mistake has been made. but
others who do not know, and who are
new to the government work are very
much worked up over the letters re-
ceived.

most of this has to be gotten up the
first three days of the week. Did
YOU ever sit down and try to write
two or three columns Cf matter Il
YOU thought would interest your

find it pretty hard task to grind
it out? Think how much more diff

that much every day. In addition
to this the average country publish

Ancient Hornbeoks.

The hornbook is an instrument
of education which dates back to
shakespeare's and Ben Jonson's
time. Children for many genera
tions were taught the alphabet by
means of a hornbook. This was
originally a piece of parchment,
with the alphabet and sometimes
some religious matter printed on it.
Later paper was used instead Of
parchment. The parchment was
tackled to a wooden back, and a
piece of transparent horn was fas-
tened over it to preserve it. The
frame had a wooden handle and Of
ten was fastened to a child's girdle
or belt, although sometimes one
hornbook had to suffice for a whole
class.

MEXICAN PAWNSH0PS.
Charges Arc High, and Unredeemed
Pledges Are Quickly Sold.

Licensed pawnbrokers in Vera
Cruz, Mexico, have no fixed rate of
interest for money loaned on
pledges, but the usual rate is 1912
per cent a month, although special
rates are made in transactions in
volving greater sums, and some
times the rate, if mutually agreed
upon, has been quoted as low as 5
or 6 per cent on pledges Of valuable
jewelry, etc.
Unredeemed pledges are general
ly kept three to six months before
they are sold by the pawnbroker to
reimburse him for the money ad-
vanced; it depends wholly upon
what they are. Articles of wearing
apparel will not be kept longer than
three months. The notice of sale
of unredeemed pledges, which are
sold at public auction to the high
est bidder, must be posted in a
prominent place, the time and loca-
tion to be designated by the au-
thorities.
Owners of pawnshops are re-
quired to give security in double
amount of capital invested in the
business, and there is government
Inspector to whom the books of a
concern are always open for in
spection.
A pawnbroker having taken as a
pledge for money loaned any stolen
article is obliged to restore it to its
owner when requested and without
compensation. The burden of proof
rests with the owner, and it is
therefore the practice to make some
sort of an arrangement with the
pawnbroker by which the owner re-
covers his property without having
recourse to the law.
The department of the city gov
ernment having under its jurisdic-
ton and supervision all licensed
pawnbroking establishments is
known by the name of jefatura po-
Utica, which is the official title
Exchange.

DENSITY OF WATER.
Il Is Greatest at a Temperature Of 80
Degrees F.

1t is interesting to contemplate
the reasons why a pond of water
starts freezing at the top instead of
the bottom. The behavior of water
at different temperatures is so If
regular as t, set the substance water
in a class by itself in chemistry and
to make its actions peculiarly inter-
esting. At a temperature of 80 de-
grees Fahrenheit water is at its
greatest density-that is. it cannot
become any smaller. If it is heated
10 10 degrees, it will become larger
and consequently lighter per unit
volume. If it is cooled to 50 de-
gress it will be larger and conse-
quently lighter per unit volume.
This can be seen even better if we
consider a glassful of water at this
temperature Of 80 degrees. If it is
cooled the water will run over the
sides; if it is heated the water will
run over the sides.
Now, conceive what takes place
over body of water in the winter
time. The air is getting colder and
will consequently make the water
colder. When the temperature of
the air above falls the water on the
surface is cooled so that the sur
face water gets heavier per unit vol
ume and sinks to the bottom.
When the surface water gets to 80
degrees it will be very heavy and
will sink to the bottom. This proc
css will 60 on with varying rapid
itv till the whole mass of the water
is at 80 degrees. If the outside
temp, !1ltulc keeps on falling the
top water becomes colder and con-
sequentiy lighter per unit volume
and will therefore remain on top.
This process goes on till the top
water freezes into ice. at the mo-
ment it freezes it becomes about
ore-fourteenth larger than the
water it was Immediately before. So
if one sees a piece of ice sticking
out of the water he may calculate
how much more is the volume hid
den underneath. 1t will be about
fourteen times as much as is seen.
1t might be asked why the pond
of water does not freeze all the way
down after it started at the top,
as the whole mass of water is very
close to the freezing point and it
has top layer of ice. One reason
is that This top layer is poor con-
ductor of heat and'does not permit
of the, lower waters losing what
heat it has. Another and a more
peculiar reason is also found here.
The surface water when it freezes
actually gives out heat. Thus the
water Immediately below becomes
slightly warmer than it was before.
This is a common property of all
liquids when they freeze they give
out heat. The fact is utilized in
many ways in the commercial
world.-New York Tribune.
