hen have lately been established by a
decision handed down a couple of
weeks ago by the Iowa supreme court.
In effect, the decision is that hens are
not a nuisance as some animals that
are allowed to run at large have been
declared to be. If one wishes to keep
his neighbours hens out of his garden
he must fence the hens away from it
instead Of trying to persuade his neigh
Dor to keep them shut up ut home.

COL. BRYAN DROPS IN
WELCOMED PRESIDENT ELECT
AND MRS. WILSON; FAMILY
HOLD INFORMAL REUNION.
western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington, March 4.-President
Taft's last day in the White House
was one of his busiest. AS working
day 1t didn't last more than ten
hours, but it was crowded with un-
usual events, full of incidents that fall
to the man who sits in the White
House. and crowned with pleasant
ries.
The President shook hands with
several hundred citizens and officials
of the government, received scores OF
kilograms from friends all over the
world, signed his name to pile after
pile Of pictures and letters and held
three receptions.
He quilted the room he has occu-
pied four years in the executive Of
fices with smile and without a
backward glance, and with many a
pleasant recollection of the days he
has spent there. He met his old-time
friends of the Washington diplomatic
corps and the justices Of the Supreme
court in the White House, and, last
of all, he gave the first formal vel
come in that mansion to the President
elect and Mrs. Wilson.
Last night the President and Mrs.
Taft were guests at private dinner
given by Miss Mabel Boardman.
Altogether, as Mr.. Taft told Wis
itors, it was one Of the happiest days
of his life, and the regret he may
have had over things he was unable
to accomplish was more than offset
by the remembrances Of the pleasant
paths he has walked.
William Jennings Bryan was one of
the last distinguished visitors who
saw the President in office.
Colonel Bryan came, unannounced,
late in the afternoon.
Here's something l want to show
you," said the President, as he
grasped his visitor by the arm and led
him to the Cabinet room.
"This," continued the President, sis
the Cabinet room.
Mr.. Bryan sat down, in the chair
of the Secretary of State, but he made
no comment.
II just dropped in to say farewell"
he told the newspaper mon, as he de-
parted. II have many Republican
friends as we'll as those in the Demo-
cratic party"
Before he left his office for the last
time the President shook hands with
members of the executive office staff.
