same period and 1865 head for the
same time a year ago.
While there was liberal showing
of sheep and lambs in the yards at the
opening of the weeks activities, still
comparatively few head came for the
open market. Bulk of receipts were
direct shipments to local killers and
therefore did not enter the general
market.
Situation in the mutton and lamb
trade is steady to firm with former
prices continued.

Cattle Run Also Smaller.
While some rather liberal lots of
cattle came forward to North Port
land over Sunday; total receipts for
the period were smaller than last
week. being 1446 head compared
with 2O5s head last Monday and 1854
head for this sacme day a year ago.

Artists Who Are "Pecullar."

There are In this country number
of men who sacrifice beauty of color
for popularity Of color-to announce
to the world their Individuality that
they are here, on the map of the earth,
writes f. w. Ruckstuhl in Art World.
They go either to the anemic and
bloodless, or to the redhot and vulgar,
or to the neutral and leaden, or to the
shocking and caoplonic color-to Gre
ate a notoriety bringing sensation. Be
cause they know that the newspaper
and magazine art writers-who need
one sensation per week-will advertise
their work and annex them as fruitful
sources of mutual profit Such vulgar
color mongers the layman can ignore,
for their fate is settled in advance
They begin to pass into oblivion as
soon as they are born, like will O. the
wisps. The very constitution of the
human mind and soul insures that.

SHIPS NEED OF AUSTRALIA
Grain Of Little Value Without frame
portation, as Little Of 1t Is Used
at Home.

"Australia's food production this
year will average normal; it is neither
unusually heavy nor light, but there
Is going to be considerable difficulty
in handling the crops, because there
are no facilities for transportation,
said Fl. w. Stephens, merchant OF
Melbourne, who was visiting the Unit
ed States. 1.-THE greatest need of Aus
tralia today is transportation. Until
ship tonnage Is provided 1t is almost
useless for the farmers to complete
their harvesting, as it requires only a
small percentage of the crops to sup
ply the domestic needs. Heretofore
great quantities Of grain have been
shipped to England and It is still going
overseas, but in not sufficient quantity,
for England needs wheat now as never
before. But without ships 1t is impos-
sible for US to send our wheat
abroad.
1.-THE wheat crop Of Australia was
damaged to some extent by mice, and
until the farmers learned how to COM
bat this pest 1t threatened to become
a serious menace. The farmers used
poison, water, gas and other means,
and finally got rid of them"

EDUCATION OF THE STREETS
Children With Poor Environments
Stand Low in Higher Forms OF In
teIIgence, Tests Show.

1t is a common belief that the chill
dren of the poorer classes in large cit
les acquire q certain amount Of valua-
BILE education by running the streets.
Actual tests usually indicate, however,
says the Journal Of Heredity, that such
children stand very low In all the high
err forms of intelligence, and this might
have been suspected from an examina-
ton of the environment in which they
are brought up. Association with old
err people is one of the most important
factors in a child's education; but ia
the poorer classes the dwellings are
so small that child must spend most
of his waking hours outside, and no
where does he come in close contact
with many older persons of ability.
No matter how much one may adj
mire the development of modern indus
trial society, he can hardly believe that
it offers a full and rich environ
ment in which a child may unfold
If child had inherited ability (and
many of the children who roam the
streets have not) it could hardly be
called into full play by the stimulus
of modern city street which, com
pared with the country, offers little
for child to do. Much has been said
Of the evils of child labor, but under
modern city conditions 1t Is conceiVa
BILE that child idleness may sometimes
be equally injurious.

Yarns About Navigation Of River
When Water Was Low.

There are times when the Missouri
river spreads thinly over bed that Is
miles wide. Then 1t is that It's navi'
CATION is difficult between pools.
The humorists of other days used to
say that the deckhands of stern wheel
ers were frequently sent ahead with
garden sprinkling pots to moisten the
channel, so that the boat could float
through 1t. Once. 1t was said, the
captain of a steamboat made the trip
from Omaha to Kansas City by taking
advantage of rainy days.
A story of great popularity in the
sixties ran somewhat In this fashion
An upward-bound boat had been
grounded for some days when the cap
tain noticed a passenger, who had dis
played impotence, carrying an empty
bucket forward.
"What are you going to do with
that?" inquired the captain.
I'm going to fill 1t with water from
the side and throw 1t in front to give
the boat a start" replied the passen
ger.
.You1l do nothing of the kind" com
manded the captain, 1--WE need all tn
water there is in this river to cool
with"

Thinkino.

Thinking is quite easy when you
know how. 1t is true that few of us do
It. Most of us allow our minds to
dribble, to meander aimlessly about
along lines of least resistance, like wa
ter that has trickled over Mississippi
levee and gone here and there about
the flats, getting muddier and muddier
until it soaks into the lush earth or Is
evaporated into the thin air. That Is
what most of us call thinking. The
mind that works that way gets no
where; it never accomplishes any
thing; its owner is merely flotsam on
the stream of life.-Cleveland Plain

ENGINE BUILT LIKE A WATCH
Fast, Modern AirpIane May Readily
Cost From $4,000 to $4,000 and
Wears Out Quickly.

The engine of your motor car
weighs from 500 to 1900 pounds, or
more. 1t Will average from 20 to 30
horsepower q the lowest says
writer in Golfers. The new airplane
engines run less than three pounds per
horsepower and the finest Of them two
pounds or less. Airplanes have been
built with air-cooled engines for short
distance, fast scouting whose en-
gines weigh less than pound and
three-quarters per horsepower. They
must be quite literally, as an old adj
vertisement used to say, built like .
WATCH" =
AT present a high-powerad airplane
engine Of the best type-say 100 to
$50 orsepower-cannot be purchased
for much less thar 5000 And the
whole airplane, big one, may readily
cost $4,000 to $4,000. You can read
lily see why the construction OF only
$1,000 airplanes, as In Engiand's pro-
gram, would easily equal, for total
expenditure for men and Camps and
hangers and repairs and wastage,
more than half a billion dollars.
A fast modern airplane has an aver
age life Of only about two or three
hundred hours of active service-say
two months at the outside. This
means that to keep 10000 airplanes on
battle line you have to be able to
build 5000 per month or more The
cost would be almost unthinkable.
That is why warfare In the air for any
| length Of time would bankrupt the
world. And that in turn, Is why war
| fare in the air means the end Of all
warfare.

PERsIANs FOND OF sHERBET
Of Beverage, Of Which There Are
Many Varieties.

The great beverage In Persia is
sherbet, which Is plentifully supplied
and of which there are many varieties
from the bowl of water with d
squeeze of lemon to the clear concen-
trated juice of any sort of fruit to
which water Is added to dilute it.
The preparation Of sherbet, which is
done with greatest care, Is a very i'm
portant point in so thirsty a country
as Persia, and one to which much time
Is devoted. 1t may be either expressed
from the juice of fruit freshly gath
cred or from the preserved extract of
pomegranates, cherries or lemons,
mixed with sugar and submitted to a
certain degree Of heat to preserve
1t for winter consumption
Another sherbet much drunk is
called guzangebben it Is made from
the honey Of the tamarisk tree. This
honey is not the work Of the bee, but
the product of a small insect or worm
living in vast numbers under the leaves
of the shrub. During the months of
August and September the insect Is
collected and the honey Is preserved
When used for sherbet 1t is mixed with
vinegar and, although not so delicious
as that made from fruit, it makes an
excellent temperance beverage. Only
among the rich and fashionable are
glasses used in all other cases sher
bet is served in china bowls and drunk
from deep wooden spoons carved II

cess in his remarkable campaign of
September, 1896, when his infantry
covered a distance of ia miles in six
days, besides winning three battles
from the Austrian troops.
Thirteen years after his victory at
Bassano Napoleon raised the town to
duchy and conferred the dukcGom
upon his devoted secretary OF state,
Maret, the French journalist and diplo-
mat, who shares with Daru the dis
tinction of having been one of the
hardest workers In the service of the
great Corsican.
Bassano is one Of the "infant" cit
les of northern Italy judged by the
age standards of Vicenza, Verona,
Venice, Padua and other municipalf-
ties of Venetia, although it was six
hundred years old when the first per-
manent English settlement was made
in America. A few years after it was
founded in the eleventh century the
district was given as a fief to Eccelin,
a German follower of Conrad II. Ec-
celn founded the famous Ezzelini fam
lily which dominated this town and
neighboring cities from time to time
during the middle ages. The most
| powerful Of these feudal lords, and
| the most notorious, on account of his
savage cruelty, was Ezzelini da Ro-
mano, a stanch supporter Of Emperor
Frederick II, and one of the most sue
cessful OF the Ghibelline adherents in
the great civil wars which devastated
Italy during the thirteenth century.
He not only held Bassano, but, with
| the aid of the emperor, extended his
sway over Verona, Vicenza, Padua and
Treviso. Eventually Pope Alexander
" declared a crusade against him,
| whereupon he made an attempt to
invest Milan. Here he was wounded
and captured. Enraged at his Ill
fortune in falling into the hands OF
his enemies, he tore the bandages
from his wounds and refused all food
thus coming to much more tragic
end than his compatriot in arms, En-
zio. natural son of Emperor Fred
erick. who was captured in 1249 ant
held prisoner In Bologna for the re
mainder of his life. Enzio's 70 years
of confinement were solaced by the
devotion of Lucia da Viadagola, gen
tlewoman of Bologna who is said II
have endeavored increasingly to secure
her lovers release. There is legent
to the effect that on one occasion TIL
famous prisoners escape had almos
been accomplished when a lock OF hi
golden hair, hanging over the top of
wine cask in which he was concealed
betrayed him.
Bassano is beautifully situated a
the foot of the Venetian Alps. 1t
famous for its potteries, especially 1t
maiolca, and for an extensive print
ing establishment. Its trade is large

One, at least, of Rossinls operas was
composed in bed. 1t was when he was
young, poor and unknown, and lived in
wretched quarters. After writing a
duet the composer allowed his manu-
script to slip off the sheets and fall
under the bed. Rossini was too com
Portable to get up, and, moreover, he
believed it would be unlucky to col
lect the sheets, so he went TIC work to
re-write the duet. To his disgust, he
could not remember it. 1t was there
fore necessary to write new enc
feat which he accomplished In q
couple of hours.
