BY THE SCISSORS
ABOUT THE MISSOURI.

Some day, when st. Louis tires OF
having her harbor sullied by the Mis-
souri, river, that muddy stream will be
turned into the Mississippi through
an artificial channel back of the city
and made to come out where it will
not do so much harm.
The Mississippi river above the Mis-
souri, is very big and beautiful river.
That it should be robbed of its charm
just before it flows past the largest
city on its banks is a pity. Maybe
Colonel Goethals will come up some
time and tell us what can be done
1t is likely that the undertaking would
not be as great as we may imagine.
There are valleys back of the city
through which the Missouri, with
some assistance by engineers, could
probably run, and We would be well
rid of it. even at the cost of some mill
lions of dollars 1t would work a
wonderful transformation in front of
the city. Instead of the murky flood
which pours under the bridges even
at this season of the year, when the
river ought to be comparatively clear,
tive show of water like that which
marks the harbors of all the cities on
the Upper Mississippi SO beautiful.
We shall not say much about it
now There are too many chanks in
city. Dhen these have died. and
their several political leagues shall

was up near Maple Island within some
three miles of Alton. On a certain
occasion when the mouth choked with
ice and a flood came roaring down
the river behind it. the Missouri turn
ed across country to meet the Missis-
sippi where we see it today. 1t never
returned. When we turn 1t down back
of st. Louis we can use the old river
bed for a spillway. Col. Goethals can
tell us all about spillways. He has

of Oregon is vitally
interested in the administration of the
new secretary of interior and to no

than it is to the one which includes

and the Umatilla Indian reservation.
Secretary Lanes purpose in making
his western trip is to secure first

which come within his jurisdiction.

Jumping Dog Produced in
 Court Presents Too Much
 Evidence of Affection to Substantiate the Cruelty Charge Against Blanchard

In police court yesterday after noon. Judge Thomas heard Humane Officer J. w. Canning testify in sup port of his contention that in mak- ing Queen the high diving dog, jump from forty-foot ladder into a net in front of the Savoy theater, Donald Blanchard. owner of the dog was guilty of cruelty to animals. The testimony dealt only with descrip- tion of the act. There was no sug- gestion that the pet dog was abused in anyway, except in being trained to take it's life in it's own hands," in making the big leap It was shown by MT. Canning that a net was stretched at a proper distance from the foot of the ladder and that the dog jumped squarely into the middle of the life-s saving apparatus.
 Questioned by the court. MT Can ming said that he did not suppose that the animal was in much danger of receiving broken bones or sprain- ed ankles City Attorney Prescott assisted MT. Canning as best he could in presenting the case
 When Mir Canning concluded his testimony he announced that his case was in. Attorney Fred B Town send representing Blanchard imme- diately asked for a dismissal of the charge against the defendant, claim ing that no case had been made
 Is the dog in cOurt?" inquired Judge Thomas.

In leash the handsome bull dog was brought before the bench In order that the court might have a better look, the dog was invited to l take a central position upon the long table directly under the bench.

THE BEDTIME PossET REVIVED
Here Are Some Famous Recipes oi
 Yesteryear

Where are the poSsetS and the neguses of yesteryear-those night cap beverages which were an ac- compartment of the bedtime candles when they were lit in the drawing room or the billiard room of the early Victorian country house?
 For many years it seemed that they had vanished entirely but now comes a revival of the custom which provided that no one should retire until there has been drunk a warm ing draught distilled with the pur- pose of warding off the hundred or so ills which winter brings.
 From a ragged cookery book found on the stall of one of the Little old Bookshops one culs a few recipes.
