Florist Becomes Distinguished.

1t means something for the Ameri-
can Carnation Society to note in its
records the development of something
new in the line of carnations, and
therefore distinction has come to
Henry Symonds of this city in the
registration as reported in The Amer
lean Florist of his two new carna-
tions, DEBORAH" and Zoe Symonds. y
1t will be remembered that these new
carnations which he has developed
created something of a sensation at
shows where they were exhibited, and
his registration of them in official
flower circles adds dignity to the De-
corah Greenhouses and honor to the
city.

The Age of Elizabeth.

The class of English history was
in session, and the professor was tel.
ling of the impressionable age at the
time of the Elizabethan Era. After
speaking for some minutes on the
subject, he turned to one of the young
men and asked:
How old was Elizabeth, Mr.
Holiness"
The young man wore a far-away
expression.
Eighteen, on her last birthday
sir" came the reply.

VALDOSTA ELK'S Club
Plead Guilty to Violation of
Prohibition Law

Valdosta, Jan. 21.-The Valdosta
Elks club pleaded guilty to a techni-
cal violation of the prohibition law
and was fined $50 by Judge Crawford
of the city court yesterday.
One other case against it and two
indictments against R. l.. Thomas,
formerly manager of the club in which
the state admitted the evidence was
weak, were mol pressed on the promise
of the attorneys of the club that it's
operation would be amended to COM
ply with the law The club claimed
that if there was a violation of law it
was unintentional and would not occur
again.
The case against the Elks is similar
to those against the Owls club one
of which was tried last week, but the
violations were not so fragrant or num-
erous and with the difference that the
Owls fought the cases. The latter was
found guilty on one indictment and
fined 81 900.

Mr.. Wilson, who is at the Imperial

an extremely strong backing in the
West, owing to his long and extensive
experience in dealing with the red men

One of the main features of his work
which are now engaging his attention
is the preparation for the public sale
of inherited and "non-competent"
Indian lands located on the public do
main in Oregon and northern Cali
fornia. The first big public sale Of
this kind in Oregon will take place
February Is, and will mark the first
important invasion of whites as lanl-
owners within Indian reservations in
Oregon. These lands are located in
these districts :-Roseburg, Burns and
The Dalles, oregon, and Redding and
Susanville, in California.
The lands which will be thrown on
the market on that date have been ap-
praised at many thousands of dollars
and are in many cases still in the
hands of abe original Indian allottees
who have petitioned the government
for an appraisal, with a view of dis
posing of their property Most of the
allotments are in quarter section
