his Federal hunters had killed during

The report goes on to that
in the month of June the hunters ac-
tually killed 172 animals, n of
which was a large stock-killing bear
and that the hunter reported that he
saw 1872 sheep killed by this bear"
and Mr.. Goldman forthwith estimated
that $1,000 worth of stock had been
destroyed. He inadvertently, how
ever. omitted to state that the hunter
who killed this bear was a bounty
hunter and the State of Idaho paid
him for his services.

SHOULD BE DISTRIBUTION.

Whenever efforts have been launched in behalf of Americanization there has invariably been advanced the important idea of bringing about distribution of the newcomers as fast as they reach these shores instead of permitting or en- couraging them to herd together in large centers
 The need of this is well illustrated in the recent showing made by the census figures for New York city, where it is re- vealed that over three and half mill lion of the population of that city are numbered among the five chief foreign clements and nearly a million and a hal or a quarter of the city's population are natives of other countries and more than two million more are of foreign parent age. Thus it appears that New York's population is two-thirds foreign, either as to birth or percentage.
 These conditions have all been made possible by the immigration laws that prevailed before the war and by the fa ure to properly distribute those who come to this country to make their homes. With other sections of the country cry ing for help there are those sections which are crowded and maintaining con ditons that are far from beneficial to the well being of the large cities and the country in general.
 Restrictive immigration jaws have served to reduce the number of aliens, but with the probable continuance of the existing law for two to three more years until more settled conditions prevail it is evident that there Is a crying need for giving more attention to the distribution of the immigrants.
 There IS no encouragement towards Americanization when they are permitted to locate in certain centers and create a population greater than some of the lead ing cities in their own countries. That they may become better acquainted with the customs and institutions of this coun- try, encouraged to learn the English lan- guage and becomes citizens of this coun- try influences should be put to work to check the tendency to locate in large set dement's but to take advantage of the opportunities throughout the country an.l grow up under American influences and conditions. That is the way in which the melting pot can accomplish its work.

No, you won't dare use that aw- full old pole again-the Pickletons have salmon sent iced from the Yukon for their week ends and nobody thinks of cooking these little bass any more. They're too plebian I'm glad packed you best shirts and made you bring your panama, and for heavens sake send back to Chicago for some of those expensive cigars you get for company If MT. Pickleton's drops in here you're got to measure up to his cigar case.
 Fling Just like that my summer blew up on the spot, for the Pickleton's were only the vanguard. Every day some $14,000 car would arrive in a cloud of dust bearing a fresh batch of the simple cottagers and Imogene re- fused to let me park our humble bus in sight any more. I had to hide it behind the sassafras clump and we all ways looked nervously around the
 neighborhood before sallying forth in
 it as of yore.
 Instead of whooping over the rail fence to know whether Billtick could lend me an ax to chop some wood, found myself getting into sticky, hot clothes to attend afternoon tea on Bill ticks new veranda with the other eli gible cottagers draped around Chinese fan chairs and such, while low, well-modulated voices discussed Batik Mary Garden and the virtue of saul
 sages and scrambled eggs for mid
 night supper when one danced, and whether it was worth while to spend the winter in Paris. Meanwhile a ce- ment-faced butler would be handing
 one tea and cute little cakes like those you get in dear old Lunnon.
 Why, you couldn't help feeling up- lifted and powerfully important and aristocratic. But it was no use. The little bass made polka dots all over the lake at sunset but Imogene Wou. dn let me go fishing on @ bet. She said it simply wasn't done and if we want ed to be anybody we'd have to sacri- flee our humble pleban habits. I had to hire man to turn the hose on the flower beds and tack up anything that
 needed to be tackled and Imogene grew thin and distracted giving large after noon card parties. Giving parties at a summer resort it just like an epidemic of measles. It has to run it's course
 and you might as well grit your teeth and take your suffering bravely.
 "So on the whole, we thought we'd
 remain Lere where we can wear old clothes and lie round on a hot day with
 our collars off and not a darned soul
 will know anything about our fall Would you have liked to rent our cot tage by any chance%
 T am saying no in loud firm tones !' | the Woodlawn man told him. 'You can't wish Anything like that onto me not while I have my good right fist doggone you !'-Exchange.

RUSSIAN PROMISES.

It cannot fail to impress the soviet delegates to the Genoa conference that the other countries are for the most part disposed to treat them with much con- sideration if they can get any reasonable assurance that such an understanding as may be reached will be carried out. There are those who are disposed to put much faith in the soviet leaders, and this in spite of the experience that has been had in connection with trade agree ments, while there is a general fecogni- ton of the importance of getting an ad- justment of the economic situation In E.l- rope wherein Russia cannot be ignored
 While Russia may be expecting much of the other nations 1t must realize that it must be prepared to make some real concessions. It cannot expect that the other countries are going to tumble ove- themselves to do favors for it after the manner in which 1t has been conducting affairs unless they can be convinced that they are going to respect an agreement even though that means a radical depar- ture from past conduct.
 Thus when the soviets are told they must agree to pay it's debts. indemnify foreigners and restore confscated prop. erty before there can be that much sought recognition Russia has no reason to be surprised. But what is of more concerr is the possibility of having kept sucl promises as Russia may make in reply to such demands. Where there is no re sponsibility it is easy to promise ant quite as easy to forget Russia has { long way to go before it reestafolisheI confidence. It Is constantly faced witt the question Does your promise mea1 anything?"

FAMOUS MEN.
IzAAK WALTON

-zaak Walton, that jovial soul of the fishing fraternity, was sixty years of age when he completed his master piece of literature, FThe Compleat An gler." He lived to the advanced age of ninety, and in the next twenty-five years of his life he continued to add to the completeness of the work i'll his leisurely way.
 Walton prepared for the printer second edition in 1650 when he was sixty three years of age; another edi ton in 1861, fourth in 1868 and a fifth and last in 1876, In this last edi tion the thirteen chapters of the origi- nal had grown to twenty-one.
 Although The Compleat Angler" was not Walton's first literary work, his leisurely labors as a biographer seem to have grown out of his devo- tion of angling. It was probably as an angler that he met familiarly a number of eminent men whose lives he later wrote and had printed.
 One of these was Sir Henry Wotton, whose life written by Walton was published in 1851. His life Of Hooker was published in 1862, his life of George Herbert in 1870 and of Bishop Sanderson in 1878, at the age of eighty
 
 These Hives" were evidently writ ten with loving care, in the same lei surely fashion as his "Compleat An gler, and like it, are of value less as exact knowledge than as harmoni- ous and complete pictures of char acter.
 Walton also rendered affectionate service to the memory of his friends Sir John Skeffington and John Chalk hill, editing with predatory notices Skeffington's Hero of Lorenzo" and ChalkhilTs ''Thealma and Clearchus' the latter a few months before his death in 1883.
 IZaak Walton, according to Wood during all his mature years spent most of his time "in the families of the emi- nent clergyman of England, of whom he was much beloved.' The last forty years of his life he seems to have spenf in ideal leisure and occupation, trav- cling here and there, visiting his "emi- nent cleTgymen" and other brethreI of the angle, compiling the biograpI of congenial spirits and collecting here and there a little for the enlargement of his famous treatise.
 Walton's "The Compleat Angler i. l of little value now in it's intended 1 function of treatise, but it will al ways live as fishing idyll of grea l beauty. It appeared in five editions prepared by Walton during his life. time, and greatly elaborated; since hi death more than 100 editions have ap | peared, and the demand for "Waltoni ana has given a high value to tn earlier copies.
 At ninety, the age at which he died Walton acted as proctor in convocatiol for the diocese of Salisbury. The las literary work in which he was engag
 ed and which was continued almos
 up to the day of his death, was hi
 collaboration with John Walker in tn
 History of the Sufferings of the Ger gy."
 Izaak Walton wrote considerable DO
 etry of very high class, but it wa
 mostly as appendages to the work
 by other authors. His poems and let
 ters have been preserved in Richar
 Herne Shepards "Waltoniana'' vhic

HIS NARROWING SUMMER

Well, are you going to your cot tage at Lake Fluffy this season as usual?" inquired the man from Wood lawn as his friend from Hyde Park wedged into the seat beside him.
 About time you were getting over there. isn't it?'
 Tt is and it ain,t,' the Hyde Park man said cryptically Lake Fluffy will
 have to stagger along without us this
 season, and heaven help the abandoned
 spot No, we are renting the cottage
 to some trusting souls who wish to get
 out of the simple fields and forests
 and live close to nature, and all that
 sort of thing, and we are going to
 remain in the wilds of Chicago for a time.
 After last summer at Lake Fluffy Imogene and locked the back door of our beloved summer home and shed tears all over the yard as we departed. The days when Lake Fluffy was ten miles from lemon and you had to go to bed at o'clock if you had forgot ten to order gerosene, when the vege- table man brought you lettuce for three weeks In June and was amazed that you should desire 1t after that, are passed. The place is infested with
 
 and $20 white kid pumps, and nobody thinks anything at all of having salad a la Cafe de la Paix or Indian curry. Nobody would dream of eating ban tam corn any more without stickers in I the ends of the ears-and corn that way doesn't taste any better than a l cigar in a long holder They even serve watermelon scooped out into I balls instead of in the manner na- | ture intended and beyond that there
 is nothing to say
 The first time I got into my dear old fishing clothes, which I have worn over there for the last ten years, and went down to the dock to catch a string for breakfast, Imogene came ! tearing after me shortly in great ex- l citement, beaing Q dustcoat and my best hat
 Thank goodness she gasped, I 1 got here in time ! Put these on, throw | that disreputable basket into the lake and hide that old bamboo pole under l the bushes. My goodness, what if they 1 had seen you Why, the Pickleton ] family have just arrived at their cot I tage-that new place across from us and they came in a French car with 1 the haughtiest chauffeur you can imag- ! inc.
 ""They had eleven large trunks on 1 the truck, and I wish you could have
 seen Gladys Pickleton's hat It never
 cost cent under $75, and think she's
 engaged, because a man who looked | like a duke or something anaemic and distinguished helped her out as though she were made of glass.
