GYPSUM PRODUC-
 TON LARGE
Value af 1911 Output Six and . Half
 Million Dollars

The quantity of gypsum mined in 1911 was 2,323,97O short tons, valued at $6, ,462, ,o35. as stated by E. F. Burchard. in an advance chapter On Gypsum" from Mineral Resources for 1911," publish by the United States Geological Survey. This was a slight decrease from the figures for 191O-I.05 per cent in production and 0.94 per cent Tn value-but while the industry was not especially active certain changes, such as the replace. ment of old mills by a smaller number of larger modern mills and the establishment of mixing plants in commercial centers, should result, according to Mir. Burchard, in the saving ot freight charges on finished plas- ters and enable Che products to be sold to the consumer at low rates.
 Gypsum was produced in IT States and in Alaska from 78 mills. The imports for 1911 were considerably reduced.

Characteristics

Characteristics of some great men are particularly interesting. J. Pierpont Morgan, for insi anee, seldom eomes to Washington, but when he does his habit for a quarter ofa century has been to stop at the Arlington Hotel At the time it was proposed to interest Mr. Morgan in a pro- position to tear down the old structure and to erect one of the most magnificent hotels in the country on its site, the great fnancier took a big block of the hotel stock upon the stipulation that tue rooms reserved for him in the new hotel should be ar ranged in exact duplicate, and furnished in the same manner as the suite which has been at his disposal in the old Arlington for many years.
 It is said that Senator Penrose who always stops at the New Willard, pays. S3O .dav for his rooms, and that the Senator frequently proclaims that any one who pays such fancy prices is privileged to use or abuse the furniture and surroundings as he sees fit, and that he acts ac- cordingly. The Senator is known to be a very rich man. and as a bachelor has formed some pecu. liar habits, one of which is said to be that he frequently stores the halt smoked butts of cigars in his treuser pockets, where they are kept handy for use.

CURIOUS BITS OF HISTORY
By 4. w. MACY. AN INVASION THAT DID NOT TAKE PLACE

In 1886 the young king Of France, Charles w., wac per. suaded by his uncles, of whom he had a good supply, 10 invade England, and an army of 4o,00n men was assembled in Flanders for the purpose. Great prepsrs- tions were made for the exre- ditIon. Every soldier provided himself with . billiard, or hired man to go along and collect pIunder for him, An enormous tent was constructed. which t would require seventy-tvo yes. sells to transport in sections across the channel. Just what this tent was for is not quite clear. When all was ready for the grand start it was found that the youthful king wss drunk. When he scbered up he decided to wait for the arrival of one of his uncIes. By the time the uncle arrived the king lad changed his mind, and con cluded not to make the invasion after all. The army dishsnded and the stores which had been collected were pIundered. The boats upon which the nsrts of the great tent had been loaded oot away iron, thslr mccrlnus end drifted into the mouth cf the Thames. The English seized them, and found the great tent useful in variety Of ways.

In looking over the Portland papers regarding Elks Conven- ton news it is common to see pictures of one or two of our people in ever issue who are having the time of their lives in that city at the convention. There were but a few members of Winslow Lodge who attened the convention but it was their intention that even as few as they were they were bound to let the people in that section of the country know that Winslow is on the map. Some of the stor- ies told newspaper men have some truth in them while others sound rather funny and are sur prising and laughable to the folks here at home.

GOVERNMENT PORTEC-
 TON FOR BIRDS


 The question of better protect. ion for the migratory game birds in the United States has been un- der consideration before Con gross recently and the anti quated objection to the 9interfer ence with the rights cf the states has been urged against the pro: position that the Department of Agriculture begiven authority in the matter of fixing closed sea: sons for migratory game birds, such as wild geese, wild swans, brant, wild ducks, snipe, plover, woodchuck. quail and wild pig. cons. Mir. Cooper of Wisconsin, made the statement on the floor of the House that he could recall the time when wild pigeons flew by the millions, and the heavens were darkened by them. ," He said that he had read recent fly of a reward of a thousand dol lars being offered to anyone who would furnish a male wild pig con. He added that there is fe. male wild pigeon in captivity in the Zoologlcal Garden in Cincin- rati, and that an attempt was being made to secure a mae These birds have been practically exterminated. They, like buffalo, have practically surrendered their existence to greedy hunters. In the debate it was pointed out that the antelope is also rapidly becoming extinct, and that detI exist only i'll certain portions ot thecountry. A western Congress man took a rather amusing view of the game proposition, declar-4 ing that under federal supervisl ion, game if migratory, ceases to be game when it crosses state line wherein it is now pro
 tected by state laws, and by req son of it's own movement, be comes interstate commerce. He further attempted to obscure the issue by stating that federal supervision would make 1t neces- sary to prove whether or not wild birds residents of the differ ellt states, and declared that he could not see how this could be brought about unless by afhda- wits from the creatures them selves. The Goverement and game wardens of the country have been consulted and most of them have approved the proposition for federal supervision. In the debate 1t was clear that the dis
 puted power of the Government in tbis matter does not rest up on any valid foundatlon.-
