During the summer of 1914 the department of COM
through the bureau of fisheries, conducted an eX
poraon of certain fishery grounds of the coast of Ore
gOn and Washington to determine particularly if habut
present in sufficient quantities to support fishery
The fishery steamer Abatross used for this survey
The survey covered as well time permitted the in
shore Of the 00fathom curve from just north Of Grays
Harbor, Washington, nearly to Cape Blanco, Oregon
habut ground of some value was found off Newport
Oregon, covering of approximately 250 square
miles, The run Of fish on this bank reaches its maximum
in August and September but apparently is of commercial
importance early as June, and probably some hoibut
could be taken in the latter part Of April As mme
diae result of the Abatross findings fishermen made 2
trips to the ground taking about $4,000 pounds of hall
but, valued at about $4,000. Trips yielding 10000
pounds made in four days less Irrespective of the
abundance of fish, weather conditions and the lack of
harbors will inhibit fishing excepting from April to
October Several smaller areas off GrayS Harbor and
Coos Bay may be expected to produce haibut in limited
nmbers and the entire coast of Oregon was found to
abound in founders, sOles rock cod and black coda

A TIME TO WALK.

The New York state department Of health has issued
special bulletin saying is the time to take walks IN the
open because at this Of the year, after the gorS
Of winter the body at its lowest ebb of efficiency ana
needs upbuildng.
This is quite true indeed except for the limitation to
this particular time of year Every day in the year the
time to walk and whoever negecs it suffers loss in more
ways than mere deterioration of health.
Modern means of transportation are very good, but
they can be turned from blessing to He who
avas himself of them too strictly may be not only cutting
his life in two in the middle but is missing half Of the life
that he lives
The automobile is wonderful machine, but the human
machine is far more wonderful. The average man own
ing an automobile would be considered fool if he gave no
more care to the condition Of his machine than he gives
to the condition of his body If his engine misses few
strokes he hures it off for repair but his heart may
be wrong for months and he lets it take care of itself If
tire goes down. he stops at the first repair shop but he
will limp with rheumatism in his leg for weeks before 60
ing for repairs or overcoming the cause of it.
Walking to the office is better for health than riding
to the doctors
And there is far more than health for the body in
walking There is health for the mind and soul init too

MENDENHALL'S DEFENSE

The authorities have already col
lected evidence 70 the effect that Men
denhalI was about &c be prosecuted
under the Mann act for white slavery.
1t seems 70 be well established that
he and Miss Eliot visited Chicago last
year and lived together at a hotel
there as man and wife. Miss Eliot
seems 10 have been determined 70
make Mendenhall pay her large sum
Of money, and was holding the threat
Of prosecution over his head, there
being nothing lacking to commence
ment Of proceedings except her sigma
ture to an affidavit. The Clearwater
Sun says:
From out Of the air, presumably,
rumor has 1t that J. J. MendenhalPs
defense viii be that he took the ride
with the ladies on the west coast road
as q finale 70 a settlement he had
made with them. That he paid them
$500 in cash, all that he could raise,
and that he had promised them $500
additional when it was possible for
him to ralize on his properties-an
attempt to raise a loan on a grove
near Tampa being unsuccessful on
Friday. That the mother knew that
Mendenhall was to make cash set
tlement that day. That he was to
make a final settlement during the
ride in the car towards home. That
after he had made this settlement and
hidden farewell to the ladies he was
to meet Claude Hammock somewhere
on the west coast road and continue
the trip TO Clearwater, and the ladies
were to return to Tampa In the hired
car, and the incident was to be a clos
ed chapter.
Then the murder occurred.
The story goes that Mendenhall had
nothing to do with the murder; that
he was not in the car at the time of
the murder; or some highwayman
jumped on the running board of the
car and administered the blow that
Stemple said he heard. Stemple ad-
mits that he did not see the act; did
not even look back to see the blaze
made, presumably by gasoline, which
partially consumed the bodies of the
women.
1t is stated by people acquainted
with law that the attorneys for de-
fense have not even considered "tem-
porary insanity" plea as that would
be an admission that Mendenhall COM
mitted the act.

HIS PAST oBTRUDED
ITSELF UPON HIM

Clearwater Sun: 1t is stated that
Mendenhal telephoned his wife from
Tampa Friday afternoon to prepare
for their usual summer vacation trip.
It is stated that Mrs. Mendenhall told
a neighbor that she had just received
word to pack up" for the trip and
she was delighted to get away from
the heat. This bears out the rumor
that Mendenhall thought he had his
affairs with the woman Strengthened
out. 1t is further stated that Men
denhall was doing his best to forget
the past. He had professed religion
within the past month and been taken
into the church in full fellowship.

ODD FELLOWS HAD
A PUBLIC INSTALLATION

Yonge' Hall was crowded last night
with the Odd Fellows and their
friends, to witness the public installa-
ton of the officers of Tulula Lodge.
The installation ceremonies were
conducted by those two accomplished
veterans, Jake Brown and W. L. Col
bert. The officers installed were as fol-
lows:

After the installation ceremonies
were over, the audience listened with
great pleasure to a brief but eloquent
address by Grand Secretary ]. W.
Blanding of Gainesville and Judge w.
NJ. Gober of Ocala. Judge Gober, tho
not an Odd Fellow, feels at home

are affiliated with him in the K. of P.
Mr.. Little sang "From Jericho to
Jerusalem" song much in vogue in
northern lodges. Mr.. Little sang most
effectively and was heartily applaud
ed.
DR.. ]. NJ. Gross was present and
made the opening invocation.
After the ceremonies, the lodge and
its guests passed from labor to re-
freshment. Various brethren, under
the skilled direction of DIR. McClane,
had concocted huge bowls of fruit
punch, and piled up cake in stacks,
and Brother c. F. Hays was on hand
with large supply of his famous ice
cream. These refreshments were the
more enjoyable for being served by
Misses Irma and Gertie Brigance,
Miss Evola Strong, Mrs. Yonce and
Mrs. Whitney.
The pleasure of the occasion was
greatly added to by the superb Bap-
tist orchestra, which furnished music
thruout the evening.

ternal standbys of Ocala. Its strength
and influence for good increases with

The St. Petersburg Independent
says that it only cost 50 apiece TO save
souls during the recent revival in that
city. That is a good bargain counter
rate, but the trouble is that whole
lot of souls saved during revivals
won't stay saved About the only ab-
soluteIy certain way Of keeping soul
saved is that practiced by the Irish
man on the Turk. The Irishman was a
sailor in the Mediterranean, hun
dred years or so ago, and while on the
voyage the ship was attacked by a
Turkish pirate. There was an awful
Eight, which ended in both ships going
down, leaving the crews swimming or
sinking, according TO their ability.
The Irishman found himself contest
ing for a plank with a Turk, and be-
ing the best man soon won. He was a
jealous Catholic, and had no sooner
settled himself on the plank, holding
the Turk by the collar, than he decid-
ed 70 do some proselyting. So he gave
the Turk his choice between becoming
a Christian and being drowned. The
Turk refused to abjure the prophet,
wUhereupon the Irishman held his head
under water till he was half dead,
then pulled him up and gave him an
eother chance to be saved. Twice the
stubborn Turk refused, and twice he
was almost drowned. When the Irish
man started to duck him the third
time, the Turk saw great light and
became converted. Whereupon, the
.irishman having made a good Chris
seIan out of the Turk. thought it would
Aoe wrong TO give him a chance to
lbacksIide, and so held his head under
the water again unta he was dead.
This policy has been endorsed and
practiced by our own people in max
ing good Indians

New Hay Record.

Two hundred and forty.nine car
loads of hay arrived in Kansas City,
the largest supply ever reported at
any market in one day. 1t exceeded
the previous largest supply here,
which was reported last Monday, by
forty-six carloads.
The supply in Kansas City today
was larger than the combined receipts
in Chicago, St. Louis and New Or
leans, the three other markets that
claim importance in hay trade, Kan
sas City is first in hay.
Most of the hay, which was alfalfa
and prairie, came from Kansas, Me-
braska, Oklahoma and Colorado.
Since the first Of the year, weekly
receipts of hay have amounted to 75o
to $50 carloads, and for the year, thus
far, more hay has been received in
Kansas City than in any previous SIM
liar period.
The immense crop of alfalfa grown
last year is responsible for the large
supply now being marketed.
