BEAUTY LEFT BY THE M00RS
Gardens Of Southern Spain Have
Charm That ls Seen Nowhere
Else W Europe.

The gardens OF Spain, with a few
Notable exceptions, were not laid out
on the grand scale Of those Of the
italian villas near Rome, nor Of the
more magnificent of the French cha
teaux, but they have a romantic flavor
Of their own and a charm that is
quite unlike that Of any other Euro
pean gardens-a charm that, In no
small measure, can be directly traced
to the influence Of the Moorish occu-
patton.
This Moorish influence is partlcu-
arly apparent In the gardens of
southern Spain (and they, after all.
are the most CHARACTERISTIC, where
the vegetation is semi-tropic In char
acter, and where palms and myrtes
and thlckets Of cltron and orange
trees give Il truly African quality to
the landscape. Perhaps us character
lstic as any Of these southern gardens
are the Jardines del Alcazar In Seville
OF the original Alcazar, a huge for
tress that formed the main military
bulwark of the city, little or nothing
remains. II had been built in the
Twelfth century by the Sultan Abu
Yukub Yusuf, the same enlightened
monarch who had caused the great
mosque to be erected, of which the
court Of oranges and the world-famed
Giralda tower alone remain.-Ernest
Pelxotto. In Scrlbner's Magazine.

TRUTH ABOUT ARCTIC REGION
Discoveries Made by stefansson Dis.
prove Theories Which Have
Been Held for Centuries.

There is a rather general idea that
the land around the Arctic sea is life
less. And another widely.held belief
is that only very few fish exist in the
waters near the poles. Both Of these
Ideas have been disproved by Ste
fansson In his book, "The Friendly
Arctic"
To prove that fish did exist in those
frigid and remote regions, the author
and his companions rlsked their lives,
for they purposely crossed the Beat
fort sea without taking food supplies.
Fortunately their belief was justified
and they were able to live on the life
found In the sea, There is as much
fish to the cubic mile of the Arctic
sea as in any other sea, while on the
land there are birds by the million,
insects galore and many other forms
of life.
Then again, there has been COM
mon belief that during the dark peri
cd, the long "nigA.t" Of the North, the
Eskimo Is Idle. Such Is not the case !;
although he reserves this period gen
orally for social activities. Friends
make long journeys to one another
and on arriving davote the time to
dancing, singing and merrymaklng.
Indeed, by many the winter darkness
Is eagerly awaited.

Good Work Of Spanish Jews.

In the Twelfth and Thirteenth cen-
turtles Spanish Jews translated Moor
ish scientific works from Arabic into
Castilian, and by roundabout but inn
portant road contributed to the re-
vival of classical learning. The great
service which the wise men of Mussul-
man Spain did for European culture
consisted in their handing on the
learning of the ancient Greeks, though
it was sometimes dlsfgured or embcl-
lished In the form in which they pre-
served 1t. They revived philosophy in
the study of Plato, Aristotle and EN-
pedocles while In other branches of
learning also they helped to prepare
the way for what some called learned
ignorance, but others the renaissance.
Men came from France, from England
and from Germany, to study In the
Moorish schools of Spain, dffusing
through Europe the knowledge which
they had gained; and Rabbi Ben Ezra
(1070-1l39) travelled In Italy, France
and England, spreading thes learning
of the Spanish Jews.-A. ]. b. Trend,

LOCAL seed firm
WASHBURN-WILSO TREAT SEED
POTATOES FOR DISEASE
MAKE SHIPMENTS

In order to stimulate the growing
of potatoes in PalOuse county, and to
rid the district of potato diseases, the
Washburn & Wilson Seed company
of this city is treating all seed potato
es for chizoctonia and scab So far as
il is known the local concern is the
only seed concern in the northwest
which treats its seed potatoes before
marketing them The potatoes are
first soaked for a day in water after
and a half in solution of corrosive
sublimate, after which they are dried
which they are submerged for an, hour
and resacked. The potatoes are soak
ed in the water for the purpose of
terminating the disease, which is then
readily killed by the treatment. -Four
carloads have been treated since the
installed their equipment
The potatoes are for the most part
of in Latah and Whitman
counties The total sales of seed po-
tatoes of the company this spring
to ten carloads. Much of
this goes out under contract to far
mers in Latah county, who will bring
their crop to the Moscow firm to
supply the seed market next year.
Contracts have already been made in
he Yakima valley to furnish large
quantity of seed next spring.
In addition to treating the seed
which they market, the company is
;reating seed brought in by farmers
or planting on their own land.
The company has shipped seed in
carload lots to various communities
n Whitman and Latah counties

MOSCOW PEOPLE
FOR NATAT0RIUM

Petitions asking the city council
men to call a bond election on the
question of the issuance of 100000
worth of bonds to finance Moscow's
proposed all year around natatorium
were circulated with great success
Monday and Tuesday in the business
district. In one of the principal bus
mess blocks there was a 100 per cent
signing of the petition.
Everywhere the carriers of the pc
titions were greeted with enthusiasm
The people of the city are generally
in favor of the construction of the
natatorium and very little opposition
has been shown to the movement. The
petitions will be circulated in the
residential district starting Wednes-
day. In the business districts the pc
titions were freely signed and the
same response is looked forward to
from the residential districts
According to figures compiled by
the chamber of commerce committee
the cost to the tax payer in the event
of the issuance of the 100000 worth
of bonds will be So on every $1,000 as
sessed property valuation.
The petitions will probably be pre-
sented to the council at special
meeting to be held May II. At this

ATTEMPT. T.TO'BREAKu
FROM.C0UNTY JAIL
FOUR MEN FACING PENTENTIARYr
TERMS TRY FOR RELEASE
THROUGH TUNNEL

The four men, convicted and SEN
fenced on burglary charges, and be-
ing held in the Latah county Jail for
"a travelling guard from the state pen
itentiary attempted Jail break at din
ner time late Monday afternoon. The
four men pleaded guilty to burglariz
ing Long and Sons store at Kendrick
recently.
Thirty minutes more time would
have given the men ample time to
have made their escape. The four
men are Frank KOenig, facing a SEN
tence of from six to Is years; Philip
Reilly and Neal Mcintyre, under SEN
tences of from 18 months to Is years;
and Fred Carpenter, one to Is years
During meal time the prisoners had
been released from their individual
cages into the larger cage of the
county jail. The four men facing
penitentiary terms had utilized their
meal times in tunneling through the
wall back Of the large steel cage. The
spot dug into by the four men is not
protected by steel lining.
A knife smuggled in by one Of the
men served as saw and piece of
iron from a bed was the other tool
used in the attempted jail break. BY
tunneling into the wall entrance was
to have been obtained into the cellar
and the Jail release would have been
easy from that place.
Sheriff John Woody and Deputy
Sheriff Summerfield discovered the
operations Of the men just in time, as
it is believed 80 minutes more would
have given the men time enough to
have completed the tunnel and to
have made good on their Jail break.
The men have been watched closely
ever since their arrest as Sheriff
Woody believed the men contemplated
a jail break All four had signed con-
fessions and yet would not plead
guilty. This stall for time coupled
with the changing of the pleas to
guilty aroused the suspicion Of the
sheriffs office. The men were kept
in individual cages and were allowed
in the larger cell only during meal
times.
The men dug through the only pos
sib1e outlet in the county jail The
spot dug into is about three feet wide
and is the only place that is not steel
lined When discovered, the men had
dug through about ten inches OF
brick wall and only board wall him
dered their further progress. Oper-
atoms were hidden by large wash
tub
Sheriff Woody is to ask the county
to have the place steel
lined.
