Stevenson and Lang.

Robert Louis Stevenson was "or-
dered South" and. as we know, he left
it on record that he never had been
quite happy anywhere except at
Hyeres. But that accomplished man
of letters, Andrew Lang, was Of an
other mind. He went to the Riviera,
and was bored by it. He particularly
detested being introduced to strangers
and having afternoon tea In hotels, SO
when the time came for his departure
to his last holiday he chose Ban
chory, on Deeside. "After ALL" said
he, ''there is nothing better than Scot
land" So he died in the land he loved.

DEPEW MIXED IN HIS FACTS
Venerable New York Statesman a
Little Ahead of Time in Use
of Term "HighbroW."

Who were "the highbrows Of forty
years ago." of whom Chauncey NJ.
Depew spoke in giving his recollec-
tions of Theodore Roosevelt at the
Methodist preachers conference?
The venerable ex-senator, relating
the circumstances of Mr.. Roosevelt's
political debut in 1880, quoted "a Re-
publican district leader" as suggesting
to him the nomination Of the young
Harvard graduate for assemblyman to
placate the element in his district
(which the boys call high brow Hv-
ing along Fifth avenue"
Was there "any sich animal at
that time? 1t was four years before
the appearance Of the mugwump, who,
though a highbrow according to his
lights, was not the simOn-pure article.
His was not "a superior attitude
toward the generality of mankind"
but only toward certain political rep
resentatives of it. The real highbrow
was yet to come.
Was Will Irwin his inventor? Ex-
cursions into the origins of words are
always hazards, even in the case of
contemporary coinage, but it appears
to be sufficiently well authenticated
that highbrow is a more recent prod
uct than Mr.. Depew would have US
suppose.
Indeed, highball got into the diction-
aries before highbrow, which is not
cited in the Century of 1911 or the
Webster of 1910, though it appears
in the New Standard of 1913.
An octogenarian memory, though it
Is a marvellous storehouse Of events,
may at times deceive it's possessor.
What the district leader probably said
was "silk stockings"
Mr.. Depew has apparently merely
confused the period at which the grow
ing indulgence of the proletariat in
silk stockings caused the term to be
superseded by "highbrows." - New

Scandal From Tomb.

Mrs. Chas. F. Rhinehart and
her sister came here from Napa,
Calf, this week and yesterday
in the presence of DR.. Thos. P.
Manning had Undertaken Ed.
Whipple disinter the remains of
her husband, who was drowned
in Lake Mary on June 9th and
buried with honors by our re-
turned service men and the Odd
Fellows.
Mrs. Rhinehart positively ident-
ified the remains as those of her
husband. The body had been en-
balmed, which made recognition
easy, and corroborative identifi-
cation was furnished by his gold
teeth.
1t will be remembered that
when Rhinehart was drowned
there was a woman with him who
claimed to be his wife. She left
for San Francisco Immediately
after the funeral. The woman
who was here yesterday and who
says she is the real Mrs. Rhine
hart, said that she had gone to
the other woman in California
and obtained from her the stripes,
Croix de Guerre and the Ameri-
can citation cord worn by Rhine
hart.
Mrs. Rhinehart asserts that
her husband, W ho had been
wounded and gassed, was not
entirely in his right mind, that
when he came home on furlough
he hardly knew his own name,
and that he told of his visits to
many places that she knew it
was absolutely impossible for
him to have been in.
This story of Mrs. Rhinehart's
probably explains his actions. 1t
is the charitable and probably
the correct view to take of it,
that the casualties he has suffer-
ed while fighting for his country
had temporarily deranged him.
Letters from his superior officer,
received here after his death, as
serted that he was nominally a
deserter, having overstayed his
furlough. This, and his coming
here with a woman not his wife,
and passing her off as Mrs. Rhine
hart, can be better understood in
view of his wife's assertion that
he was of unsound mind.
Rhinehart was, unmistakably,
hero. The decorations he wore
proved that, even if the stories
he told about having been gassed
twice, wounded by bullets three
times and by q bayonet once were
partly fictitious of a diseased
Imagination. .-Coconino Sun.

Planting Bulbs.

The easiest way to plant bulbs is to
use dibble or u bulb-planter. A dib-
BILE is, in its simplest form. only a
round stick slightly larger than the
bulbs, with one end pointed. Those
purchased at the stores usually have
a curved handle. A very good dibble
can be made from an old garden fork
or spade handle by cutting it off about
a foot from the end. The handle will
be found convenient. You can be sure
Of planting the bulbs at a uniform
depth, if you measure the distance on
the dibble and drive a nail into the
wood or make chalk mark at the
right place. Some gardeners paint
bands an inch apart on their dibbles

This is the largest figure claimed by

reads:

established in its dependence, economic

LONDON. March 9.-The British
have read with great relief dispatches
from America during the last two days,
explaining the opposition Of the Re-
publican Senators to the league of ma
tions. Their earlier fears that the
Republicans intended to use their
power to kill any league with which
President Wilson was associated have
disappeared. Now they are informed
opposition is based upon refusal of the
Republicans to be bound and committed
to the covenant as prepared in France.
Notifications and amendments to the
league draft are considered totally diff
ferent from condemnation of the prn-
ciple underlying the project, and the
Republicans in the United States will
find plenty of support here in a cam
paign to that end
Opinion differs as to the immediate
effect of the American fight on the
Presidents position in Paris, but ma
jority of English supporters of the
league think he can put his case with
greater force when he next appears
before the peace conference. European
statesmen now know as never before

nations in the name of the Monroe
Doctrine and the last counsels of
Washington as to the danger of en-
tangling alliances. But the same ar
guments were used by the opponents
of military intervention by the United
States in the European conflict, and it
was proved in 1917 that they we're
false. 1t will be the same in 1919 for
the league of nations"
LA Liberte," in regard to the Sen
atorlal round robin, remarks:
at would nevertheless be wrong to
be too greatly disturbed by this oppo
sition. An able American professor of
constitutional law informs US that
every time question Of treaty with
foreign state arose Mr.. Wilson has
presented the Senate with a fait ac-
compi, and that the Senate willingly
or unwillingly, has always ratified the
text submitted When the new Senate
is convoked all will be healed and
signed, and Mr.. Wilson's enemies, who
are not even in agreement among
themselves-some being stronger for
the league than he and others less

ever reservations they make"

adventures on the one hand. and on

danger is the spectacle of delay for the
last four months by the peace confer
ence, which is in fact a sort of su-
preme international tribunal, as will
be the future tribunal of the society

character of these delays and adds:
IF the international tribunal of the
future society of nations works as
quickly and decides as promptly as

predatory governments who, assem-

Laid Down Law"
to Enemy Officials

While the first fratcrnization regula-
tons were being drafted Appclmann
was embarrassingly cordial until the
american general disclosed to him
and other German officials few force
1ully expressed facts as follows:
America has not the slightest dis.
position TO give food to the Germans.
1t is Americas united verdict that
when American food comes to Europe
1t viii go to our Allies first. IF Ger
many eats American food at all it will
be at the second table"
Other German officials at that in
tervicw suddenly remembered urgent
engagements, but DR. Appelmann was
bidden remain and listen to the fol-
lowing:
Don't get the idea into your head
that you are going to drive a wedge
between America and her Allies, be-
cause you aren't We are here to deal
with you on a strictly business basis

deliberately take loss below the price
OF S2.26 bushel in order to lower tina
price Of bread IS matter that will
have to be determined by the officials
Of the day. It appears to me that the
world price Of wheat, if there is a
free market, may be above $2.26 and
in any event such loss would be a
direct subtraction from bread prices
just as it is now paid in most Of
the European countries. There are
very great technical difficulties in the
way Of such procedure in the United
States.
Furthermore, It would, I believe, be
proved upon investigation that to lower
the price of -four by so per cent would
only reduce the price of a pound
to or cents, because too large a
proportion of the increased cost of a
loaf since the war is due to higher
wages, manufacturing costs and the
costs of other supplies.
Opposed Fixed Price
ASKED concerning criticisms arising
from the government having fixed the
price of wheat, Mr.. Hoover said he
originally opposed fixing the price. and
afterward on every occasion when
congress endcavored to raise the price.
tie added that he considered then, and
also did now, that the world situation
required stimulation to production
by guarantees to farmers, but he was
anxious to have the matter left to the
administration. He recommended that
the guarantee should be placed on the
basis of SO much an acre of wheat
planted.
Had this course been followed" Mr.
Hoover continued, "the government
would have known precisely its liabil-
ity at all times and could have re-
leased wheat at prices to be deter
mined by the law of supply and de-
mand.
II have always believed that a slim
ulation could be secured with sub

our previous estimates. Altogether the
balance Of the supply and demand for
our present wheat now looks as though
we might see wheat at $3.50 8 bushel,
as it was in the spring of 1917, if there
is Z free market in wheat and un-
controlled prices. So much for the
1918 crop. There can be no free mark
ct of 80 per cent OF the worlds ex-
ports. Wheat is controlled by the
wheat executive in London.
AS to the 1919 crop, it is, of course,
too early to come TO any precise con-
clusion. Our crop looks anything from
10 to 20 per cent greater than last year.
Before the war Russia. India, Bulgaria,
Serbia and Rumania all exported large
amounts of wheat. The war famine.
loss of seed, lack of fertilizers and an
archy have cumulated to turn these
countries into importers af wheat next
year. Central European seeding will
be below normal. The Australian 1919
crop is small, the Argentine crop is no
larger than that of Europe. Altogether
it would appear now that there would
be no bread to waste in any quarter of
the world, even if the world had the
money to pay for it and if the Boil
sheviki did not get more territory.
No Loss to u. S. Predicted
Therefore, to all present appear
ances 1T should be possible to market
the whole of next years crop without

Germany Is Expected

To allies for Food

PARIS, March o.-Plans adopted by
the Supreme War Council last night
under which negotiations regarding
the turning over of the German mer-
chant ships will be resumed after their
recent interruption at Spa provide for
holding the sessions of the negotiators
at Brussels. The Allied delegates will
leave Paris Wednesday. and the nego-
tiations probably will be resumed
Thursday.
The plans agreed upon by the coun-
Gil, as already stated, provide for tax
ing over the German merchant ships
in return for food supply for Ger
many until the next harvest. 1t is
understood the payments for the sup
plies will come from three sources
first, in the form of products such as
coal and potash; second, from credits
which Germany has in neutral coun-
available because OF the financial
blockade; and, third, from foreign Sc
curities held by Germany.
Proceeds Fixed at $5O0,000 900
1t is estimated that these three
which is the sum required to pay for
food relief to an extent considered
adequate. The Allied delegates have
reason to expect the new proposals
will be acceptable to the Germans, and
German ships soon will become avail
able for moving homeward American
troops.
One of the main influences in bring
ing about the decision of the Supreme
Council was said to be a letter read
by Premier Lloyd George from a Brit
ish general setting forth the extreme
seriousness of the food conditions in
Germany. 1t was also stated that
British soldiers in German territory
were protesting against seeing women
and children about them dying of star
yation.
Marshal Foch may not attend the
Brussels sessions. but all the other
delegates of the Allied and associate d
powers, appointed TO conduct the ne
gotiations, will be present.
