How He Learned q Lesson,

In a murder case in Mississippi the
principal witness for the state was an
old negro man, an ex-slave. The at
torney for the defense attempted by q
severe and sarcastic cross examination
to break down his testimony or al
least make him angry. but failed ut
terly to do so. After the old fellow
left the witness stand the district at
torney said to him.:

you in that you did not get angry to-
day. but answered the attorney SC

Antiquity Of Wheat.


There Is evidence that the Chinese
cultivated wheat nearly 5000 years
ago. regarding it as direct gift from
heaven. The Egyptians attributed ii
to their god Isis and the Greeks to
Ceres. Concerning the latter it was
believed that when she had taught her
favorite. Triptolemus. how to till the
soil and make bread she gave him her
chariot. and in that he traversed the
world. distributing corn to all nations
Wheat growing in Egypt can by the
evidence of a grain found imbeddec
in the brick of q pyramid be traced
back to 1859 B. C. Varieties Of wheat
are legion A French firm In its trial
seed grounds had over GOO varieties
growing. and since then crossing has
increased the number.

ALASKANS GUESTS
 SEATTLE CHAMBER
Henry Strong, of Ketchikan, Wants Fish Caught in Alaskan Waters
 Marketed in Country.

SEATTLE, Dec. 1O.-Alfred B. Hes of Valdez, and Henry C. Strong of Ketchikan, were guests of the Se- attle Chamber of Commerce at lunch con yesterday, and gave interesting talks on conditions in the north.
 Strong is secretary of the Alaska Fish company and president of the Sunny Point Packing company, and advocated the passage of a law to compel fishermen operating in south eastern Alaskan waters to discharge their catches in American ports. He asserts that under present conditions the fishermen are depicting the wa ters of Alaska and marketing their catches at Prince Rupert, causing an annual loss to American fishing in terests of several million dollars.
 He fayors pressure being brought to bear upon congress to have the bonding privileges rescinded whereby Alaska fresh fish are now sent across the continent to the eastern markets from Prince Rupert, depriving the American transatlantic railroads of the business.
 Hes spoke of the natural advan- tages of Valdez Bay as passage to interior Alaska, and predicted that Valdez would eventually be recogniz- ed as the logical route from tideWa- ter to the interior. He spoke opti- mistically of mining conditions sur rounding Valdez and asserted that the rapid development of the copper properties of Prince William sound would necessitate shelter being es- tablished in Valdez or some place in that neighborhood.

AMERICAN HORSES
 KILLED IN BATTLE
More Than Sixty Million Dollars Worth of Horses Have Been
 Sent to the Front.

NEW YORK, Dec 10.---It is stated
 that since the beginning of the Euro pean war that Great Britain has pur-
 chased more than sixty thousand dol lars worth of horses in the United States, and is still in need of more animals at the front.
 The life of the average horse after he is landed in France is said to be less than two months as they quickly succumb to the hardships and lack of care on the battlefields.
 During the first months of the war before the British forces were prop |erly organized, thousands of horses
 were lost through lack of arrange ments to care for them. The British and French are doing better now and maintain hospitals far to the rear of the fighting zone where sick or wounded animals are properly cared for any enabling many of them to re- cover.
 The demand for horses has been 90 strong for the battlefields of Europe that many of the southern states have been stripped of horses and it is feared that shortage of animals will be experienced next year for farming operations.
