Idaho has had no bad fres and
zeather conditions are 50 favorable
that the timber owners associations,
which have had heavy patrols
since May, are rapidly reducing

1910, had about so small fires this
August but they are handled so
promptly that only one which was in
cendiary, vas at all serious and this
was practically confined TO an old

been equally fortunate in Idaho, but
is still maintaining lbs full force.

patrols in Washington have so far

Oregon is also entering the worst

situation at present is in the Santiam

At Wimborne Is an old clock that
has in the center a globe which
represents the earth and the sun
and the moon, and the phases Of
the latter are variously depicted.
The clock still goes, and the works,
which are in a room above, cause a
figure outside the tower to strike
the quarters. This was the work
Of a Glastonbury monk early in the
fourteenth century.
Wells has a wonderful clock, one
Of the oldest in the world, which
dates from 1928. When It strikes
the hour four knights on horseback

man kicks two small bells with his
heels. as he has been doing every
fifteen minutes for nigh Oh SIX cen
turtles. This clock was the work Of
Peter Lightfoot, another monk Of
Glastonbury.
There is a clock at Windsor castle
known as the globe clock. The globe
is enameled in royal blue; q YER
teal bar shows the hours and a
scythe the minutes. The Isaac Har-
brecht clock is on view at the Brit
ish museum, and two clocks well

Interesting old clocks are to be
found IN private houses. One Of
these may be seen at Lutterworth.
This is a long clock. which has an
oval face, a hand that points to the
days Of the week, completing the
round in seven days, another which
shows the true dead beat and a
third which points to the chimes
and quarters. On the upper part Of
the clock are a small orchestra,
which includes a flute, a cello and
two Violins, and a boy and girl and
also three singers. The hours and
the quarters are struck, every three
hours q tune is played three times
over, while the three figures that

De LA BARRA SAYS
Shooting MISTAKE

Douglas, Ariz., April 20-Details of
Minister de la Barra's response to
President Taft's protest against firing
into Douglas by the Mexican Federal
troops and rebels were received here.
One Of the claims Of Senior de la Barra
is that Lieut.. Troncoza of the Next
can federal army was wounded by a
shot from American custom house,
that shots came from this custom
house constantly during the struggle
and that it was not plain whether
shots came from, revolutionists who
might have taken possession of the
custom house or from American SYM
pathfzers with the revolution who
were present in the building.
Douglas, Arizona, April 20-An AS
ISOLATED Press correspondent, who is
on the ground, makes the following
statement: "On the day of the bat
tie the insurgents did come very near
the American custom house which
was situated northwest of Aqua PrietA
but at no time did they take posses
sion of theb uilding when. crossing
into Mexican territory. American
cavalry arrived Immediately after the
battle opened and took possession Of
all ground on the American side near
the custom house. American troopers
ran a patrol from both sides of the
building extending along the American
side, both east and west. During the
battle no shots we're fred from the
American custom house and rebels
never had possession of It."

WOMAN SUE FOR
USE OF Picture

Washington. April l9-NIembers OF
the supreme court of the United States
today put their heads together to de-
terminc whether pretty woman, par
ticularly a pretty New York woman,
may prevent the use of her photograph
for advertising or trade purposes.
Photographers. newspaper and moving
picturemen are said to be vitality con-
cerned.
The court was considering the case
of Mrs. Aida T, Rhodes, of Brooklyn,
N. Y. One day, arrayed in her we'd
ding gown, she had her photograph
taken for birthday present for her
husband. Not long afterwards her Sis
ter in law remarked:
II saw your picture today in the
window of trading stamp store"
Mrs Rhodes obtained from the COM
pany exhibiting her photograph a
81 900 Judgment. Now the supreme
court of the United States is asked to
annul as unconstitutional the New
York statute of 1903, making it mis-
demeanor to Use name or photograph
for advertising Or trade purposes, with
out the consent of the subject.

court REPORTS
Continued from page ~

the prosecution to interpose objection,
but the witness answers were made be-
fore objections were interposed.
Captain c. J. Atkins of Cando was
also called, being an old acquaintance
of Judge Cowan. Objection was made
to any questioning along the line of
questioning Of Olson, and the ruling
of the court was to the effect that
such questions must be limited to the
same period that the prosecution was
limited to, namely January l, 1909.
Atkins declared that he had never seen
Cowan intoxicated, evidence as to
whether he had ever heard of Cowan
being drunk being rule out as hearsay.
1t was when Alex Currie of CandO
was on the stand that the interesting
point of the mornings proceedings
was reached. He had testified that
at no time during the last two years
had he seen COWan under the influ-
ence OF liquor.
DO you know of Judge Cowan ever
refusing a drink" asked Tracy Bangs
for the defense.
Eyes, SIR" responded Currie. 1T
was during the December term of
court in Cando. l had been in Cowan's
room and after finishing our business
l suggested that I had a bottle of
Scotch up home, and that We 60 up
and have some. He replied that he
was not Drinking
"The bottle was at your home, Mr..
Currie?" asked George Bangs for the
prosecution.
Ives, sir" replied the witness.
But it was Scotch. wasn't it," re-
piled Track Bangs.
And the members of the senate evil
denced their ability to appreciate the
situation.
In addition to Alex Currie, Chas H.
Doyon Of Doyon, G. J. Lord, w. F.
Garfield, P. Forrest of Cando, and
John Daeler were on the witness
stand. Each of them declared that at
no time within the last two years had
they seen Cowan under the influence
of liquor. They are all prominent
business men Of their respective dis.
tricts. On cross examination Messrs.
Doyon and Garfield were shown to be
interested in suits in COwan's court.
Afternoon Session.
This afternoon evidence of the some
nature as that introduced during the
latter part of the morning session was
resumed.

NOT PLEASED
10y Associated Pross.)

Washington, D. c. April 2O.-The re-
ceipt here to day of an outline of the
reply of the Mexican government
which has been made to President
Taft and strong demonstration
against the conduct of warfare on the
border somewhat depressed the hopes
of officials who had confidently ex.
pected a complete responsive reply
from Mexico.
Withholding official statements un-
til the full ltext of the De le Barra
note is in hand the president in full
knowledge of the fact that it is re-
criminatory in some points, is dis
posed to deal with it leniently. The
presidents rejoinder must be based up
ON further reports FRI mthe American
military officers whose impartiality
on the fighting at Aqua Prieta has
been impeached. 1t is feared that the
situation prevails in Mexico to make
political capital out Of the activity
Of Americans and this will be
promptly resented if it appears as cal
culated to impair the good relations
of the two countries.

members are equally able and efficient
and greatly interested in that kind Of
work.
Another gratifying feature is, that
the membership is so we'll distributed
throughout the country, each great
section being represented on the com
mittee, which to me is an earnest OF
the national idea which should pre-
vail in a committee dealing with all
parts of our common country looking
to the comprehensive Improvement OF
our natural highways of trade and
commerce.
There will be no river and harbor
legislation at this session of Congress.
The committee, however, or some part
of it will likely pay visits to various
section of the country for the pur-
pose of Inspecting work under way
and proposed projects, but just what
sections will be thus visited, has not
yet been determined, and will not be
for some little time to come.
There will very likely be hearings
during the present session. certainly
there will be if anyone wishes to be
heard as the committee will seek to
get all the information available for
use in the preparation of bills.
In this connection I desire to say
a word in behalf o. the National Riv-
ers and Harbors Congress, whose cam
paign of education in favor of a ma
tional policy OF river and harbor i'm
provement. and in favor of liberal
annual bills, has been of great bene-
fit in creating public sentiment look
ing to the needs of the whole country
along the .-nes of making our rivers
work and thereby assisting in a solu-
ton of the question of transportation"

chant. was also put on the stand and
stated that he was in the room next

was in the Sevilla hotel at the time
Judge Cowan WAS alleged to have
been intoxicated and that he saw the
Judge several times on that evening
and that at no time did he see any
signs of intoxication.
Charles Taylor, Judge Cowan's
court stenographer was called to the
stand at five minutes to three and at
this time the senate took a recess
until 3:15 after which the Taylor ex-
animation was started.
