new TREES FOR
THE CITY PARK
SELECTION EMBRACES SEVERAL
POPULAR VARIETIES.
Trees Paid For With Funds
By Ladies Auxiliary of Com
mercial Association.

The ornamental shade trees for the
City Park arrived this week from
the Washington Nursery company, of
which H. H. Hill is the local ageut.
These trees will be planted in the
Park at once. They were purchased
with funds derived from pastry sale
given by the Ladies' Auxiliary of the
Commercial association, and were
purchased through Mr.. Hill.
Mr.. Hill explained to his company
the pui pose to which the trees were
to te put. and the company generously
contributed $500 worth of trees to
the order.
The consignment embraces some of
the very finest ornamental trees which
have proved to be of practical value
as shade trees throughout the North
west. Included in the list is the Car
olina Poplar. Linden, Sugar and Nor
way Naples. Elm. Chestnut, Lum-
bards. Mountain Ash, Birch. etc.
The trees will be set in the City
Park by the Commercial Association.
The soil at the Park is very fertile and
the trees are expected to grow rapidly
and in time afford shade in place Of
the Cottonwood trees that are now
going to decay. and which in few
years will be practically worthless
for this purpose.
With the addition of the new shade
trees it is hoped from time to time to
make other and permanent improve
ments in the Park.

Man More LIQUID Than Solid.

Every fiber and every cell that enters
into the formation of living body Is
bathed In moisture. by which means
alone these ultimate elements are kept
alive and are enabled to carry out their
duties. Even the bones. which appear
to be the most solid of all, owe more
than half their weight to the presence
of fluid. That our bodies contain a
large amount Of fluid is proved in a
striking manner by the bllsters which
rise after the infiction of burn.
Water, In fact, plays very important
part in the human anatomy, for 1t is
through its agency that the vital proc
esses of digestion, absorption and the
excretlon of waste products are car
ried out To reduce the whole matter
to figures and taking 154 pounds to be
the total weight Of an average full
grown man, it is said that water alone
accounts for 100 pounds Of the whole.

Tortoise Shell.

The finest of tortoise shell is said to
be that which comes from the Indian
archipelago, although much Of that
obtained on the Florida coast is Of the
very best quality, says the Scientific
American. There are three rows OF
plates on the back of the animal called
BLADES" by the fishermen. In the
central row are FIVE plates and in each
Of the others four plates, the latter
containing the best material. Besides
these, there are twenty-five small
plates around the edges Of the shell,
known as "feet' or moses" The big
gest turtle does not furnish more than
sixteen pounds of shell. Formerly the
undershell was discarded as worthless
but now 1t is much esteemed for Its
delicacy Of coloriDg. Sometimes imi'
tation of tortoise shell is made Of the

Friends Prevail UponlAthena
Lawyer to Enter Race With
Present Incumbent.

The friends of Attorney Homer I.
Watts of this city are prevailing upon
him to enter the campaign on the re-
publican ticket as candidate for cir

Mr.. Watts encouragement comes
from 10th republicans and democrats
in this and Morrow counties. at the
present time there is but ons avowed
candidate in the field for the Judge
ship-Judge Phelps, the present in
cum bent. To all likelihood there will
be no democrat out for the office 30
if Mr.. Watts concludes to make the
race the result of nomination will lay
between Mr.. Phelps and himself.
Mr.. Watts is making short can
vass Of Morrow county to size up the
situation there. A great deal OF sup
port has been offered him over there
il he consents to run, and for several
weeks Umatilla county men have teen
trying to gain his consent to enter the
campaign.
In addition to bis law practice. MIR.
Watts is ideut titled with exteusi -e
farming interests here. and for this
reason he naturally hesitates to strive
for judicial office at this time. The
tenoh. SO he realizes, would require
practically all of his time and would
require his residence at the county
seat. However, sufficient persuasion
and influence having been brought to
bear through unsolicited interest ex-
eroised on the part Of his friends, Mr..
Watts is seriously considering the
mattr and may conclude to enter the
