 The campaign to keep Americans, young and old, from killing themselves or other people in celebrating the dawn of American independence on July Is being waged with renewed energy this year because last year showed an in crease of serious accidents over the year before The movement is nation wide, and the aim is to make every commuzity adopt the safe and sane slogan for Independence day
 A compilation of statistics indicates that in the last eleven years fireworks burned on the Fourth have cost the United States 1,7S2 deaths and So,4eS Injuries.
 Philadelphia last year was the only large city, in the United States having more than 100 injuries due to mis- guided patriotism, and official action looking to the prevention of a repett- tion of such a casualty record has been taken. Last year Ph1ladelphia report ed $40 casualties, a marked increase over 1919. when 127 occurred

 There is no reason why it should ever be known outside of this room, said Kent, and at the words AIexan- der Blair exhaled a pent up breath of relief. But it is due to one person here that she should know everything. Follow me through page of unwTit- ten local history. The beginning of this story goes back some seventy five years, when there lived not far from Hogg's Haven in a house which has since been destroyed an older sister of Captain HoEg, who married into the Grosy family. She was, from the evidence of the Grosvenor family his torian. who, by the way, has withheld all this from his pages, a woman of the most extraordinary charm and mag <t-~ sense of the word, she had a gift be yond beauty, and she led men in chains. Her husband appears to have been a weakling who counted for nothing in her fife after the birth Of her children. Seeking distraction, she flung herself into mysticism and be came the priestess of a cult of star worshipers, which included many of the more cultivated people of this re- g1on- Among them was a young Ger man mystic and philosopher who had fled to this country to escape punish ment for political lonIenses. Hermann yon Ailtz was his name"

 Don't jump to wild conclusions, 2 aaid Kent smiling1y Some of their correspondence is still extant She signed herself Astraea in handwriting similar to the signature of that note of yours, Jax There seems to have been no guilt between them as the law judges guilt. The bond was a mystic one But it was none the less fatal It cuImfnated in a tragedy of which the details are lost Perhaps it was an elopement that they planned; per haps a double suicide. with the idea that their souls would be united in death.

WarIle of Tetanua.


 eff we are unsucceszfuI,r says the PennsyIvania Society For the Protec- fion of Research, fin applying the logic Of common sense to individuals who persist in their folly of using danger ous fireworks we can at least make ev- cry enort to save them from the hor- TOTS of lockiaw. Tn every case of blank cartridge, cannon cracker or any other character of wound where fn- Hecfdon is threatened we advise the prompt injection of tefanus andtoxin.
 -Iockjaw or tetanus is a bacterial disease chiefly of horses and man The bacillus, identical in both, develops in q wound into which 1t has entered with dirt and produces an intense poison The death rate from these Fourth Of July wounds continues to be appalling despite the efforts for safe and sane observance of the day. The poison en- gendered by the tetanus bacillus passes into the blood and attacks certain cells Of the nervous system, through which the convuIsions and contracted muscles characteristic of the disease are pro duced-
 .aThe study of the tetanus through experiments on animals has been fruit ful in estabIfshing the source of the bacilh in nature and the precise means to be employed 1n eliminating them by sterilization, etc, from the common articles of daily use in which they may be concerned and in yielding an anti toxin which has been successfully em- ployed as preventive of tetanus and even in curing certain eases Of that disease.g
 Fourth In New York and Chicago.
 The use of fireworks In amy form is to be opposed in New York city this year by Mayor MftcheI's rational Fourth of July committee Each year the committee has been gradually crowding out the fireworks, and last year displays were allowed only in scattered districts There will be a patriotic rally, with Governor Glynn. Speaker Champ Clark and others as speakers; separate celebrations in the different boroughs, local celebrations in which school children will take a prominent part and aviation features
 Plans for community celebrations in various sections of Chicago have been announced. It is the aim to avoid big central celebration with it's crowds and attending perils
 Chicago's sane Fourth campaign was started in 1900 The result has been a diminution of the annual toll of deaths and disasters to the point where the figures show Chicago's Fourth to be practically stripped of its terFors.

How near and human sorrow has
made this old and exiled chief. We
see a Terrazas, no longer the awe
some symbol of great wealth, the own
err of millions of acres and of the
cattle on thousand hills; no longer
the great lord, living in patriarchal
splendor with his clan around him.
All his golden plumage is gone, and
there remains only lonely, sorrow
full old man, grieving for his first
born.
There is dignity and an appeal
about Terrazas, helpless, that was not
possible in his days of power. Sud-
denly he stands out a tragic figure,
for whom we cannot chose but feel
compassion. "My son Luis has 10
children, and they need him"
Not very different from the rest of
us, this old, sorrowful man, Terrazas,

son and is unable.

NO CAUSE FOR WORRY

The campaign which Boise interest
are conducting for reasonable logg
ing rate from the timber to that city
should receive the support instead Of
hostility from neighboring towns, anC
especially from Emmett. White il
is true that Boise is seeking through
lower rates to build up lumber in
dustry. and possibly may have for its
object monopoly of the manufacture
Of lumber in this section Of the state,
there is no cause for alarm. This is
particularly true SO far as Emmett
is concerned.
Whatever rates on logs are put in
to effect must, and undoubtedly will,
be as advantageous to Emmett as to
Boise or any main line town. 1t
would be ridiculous 10 presume that
either the railroad commission or the
railroads would consent to haul logs
TO Boise, go miles farther, over
heavy grade cheaper, or even as
cheap, as TO Emmett. This city oc-
eupies commanding position in the
future development of the lumber in
dustry Of the Payette National For
est district and has no need to worry
for the future. Lower logging rates
will be beneficial rather than injurious. |
Lower logging rates to Boise must
inure to the benefit Of Emmett to be
just, And lower logging rates TO
Boise and main line towns will open
up the question of proportionately
lower rates on fruit from Emmett,
rs well as the discriminatory rates
out Of this city Perhaps out Of this
agitation such good may come as will
place Emmett one Of the large ship
pers on the Short Line-ou an equal
footing as regards rates as Boise and
main line towns similarly situated
Ia respect 10 distance.
