Last of the "Longhorns"

The day of the 'longhorn," the
Texas steer famed for its breadth of
horn and lightness Of body, is past.
Today there is not a real longhOrn in
the whole of Texas, not even In PecOs
valley, where 1t made its last stand
against the blood of high breeding
as practiced by the Northerners who
have converted Texas from a raising
ground Of horns and speed to home
of real beef The genuine longhorn
weighed but from 600 to 700 pounds,
and could race with a coyote. 1t had
descended from the early cattle Of
the Spaniards, who were the first
white settlers of the Rio Grande cOun-
try and the semi-desert lands of the
Southwest. 1t has been years since a
real longhOrn has been seen on the
plains Of Texas. But the greatest of
all longhorns was not killed by man.
This steer, a maverick, lone outcast
from his herd, who lived and roamed
alone, fell prey to wolves In the
Devils River mountains years ago.
His horns are now in San Angelo.
These, measuring eight feet from tip
to tip, were found by cowboys.

Scare for Latent
Genius Among Poor

Doing easily what others find Cliff
cult is talent, doing what is impos-
sible for talent is genius, said Amiel
in his Charming and pensive Journal.
Perhaps no more true and trenchant
definition has ever been coined. The
practice that makes perfect is the
path of progress followed by talent /;
but the wind of MUS bloweth where
1t listeth. The logic of promise and
conclusion, the law of cause and eff
feet, always apply in the develop
ment of talent; with true genius there
Is always the suggestion of the inter-
vention of a miraculous element.
Talent, it is true, becomes the tool
of genius, which must be tempered by
time and sharpened by work. The al
most infinite capacity for tremendous
effort and tireless toll shown by every
first rate genius has given rise to the
popular notion that inspiration is only
q highfalutin word for perspiration,
and that Carlyle may have been right
when he said that genius means the
transcendent capacity for taking trOu-
Bile.
Directors Of a settlement house on
the lower east side Of New York have
undertaken to make a systematic and
persistent search for latent genius
among the children Of the poor. 1t is
their belief that Gray was right about
the many flowers that blush unseen
and waste their sweetness on the des-
ert air. and if there Is anything they
can do TO prevent 1t there will be no
more mute inglorlous Millions of the
slums whose potential contribution
shall be lost to the world for want of
opportunity.
The idea Of the patron, an indi-
vidual or an organization, whose time
~ aid will promote talent and encour
age genius is, Of course, not new But
the suggestion of a society whose |
chief concern it will be to seek to
discover and then develop potential |
genius is something of an innovation. |
But, as a matter Of fact and record, |
the history of genius would seem to
Indicate that along with the special !
gift Is usually born an indomitable
will which enables the genius to over
ride all difficulties of environment. all
want Of opportunity, and arrive at last
at the destined goal.-Philadelph

HIGH FORD PRODUCTION

Swinging into its big spring pro-
duction program, the Ford Motor
company on Wednesday, March IL,
reached the highest mark in its his
tory when its domestic assembly
plants produced total of 1886 cars
and trucks.
This record breaking figure does
not include the daily output of 500
cars and trucks for export, nor the
production of the Manchester,
England, and Ford of Canada plants,
which manufacture most of their
own products.
The new production record Is OF
especial significance as it indicates
the enormous demand being made
turnout the country for Ford cars
and trucks and the company's en-
deavor to bring it's output up to the
point where it will attempt to fill all
requirements as to avoid repetition
of the shortage which existed last
spring when thousands of persons
were disappointed in not being able
to secure delivery of cars.

MANY QUEER FINDS
IN ANCIENT HOUSES
Secrets of Centuries Dis
closed When Demolished.

Houses are being pulled down al
over the country, and only the mer
with the pickaxes know the strange
things sometimes discovered in them.
Recently there was found in the
walls of an old house in a midland
county a hidden chamber containing
many theological books, rosary, and
similar relics, the inference being that
1t was what used to be known as q
priests hole" access to which was
gained by means of secret panel.
Not long ago similar chamber. was
revealed during the demolition of q
building near Kingsway, London.
This chamber, which measured feet
by feet 6 inches by 6 feet, contained
priests hat and a pewter mug and
plate, while on the walls were
various Inscriptions, one of them point
ing to the fact that the chamber dated
from the early part of the Sixteenth
century.
During the destruction of an ancient
house in Sussex the wOrkmen discov-
cred a smuggler's hiding place, con-
tanning number of rotting bales of
lace and several bottles of spirits, to
gether with miscellaneous collection
of empty Jars. The house had been
in the same family for nearly a cen
fury, and no one had suspected the
existence of the hidden hoard.
In another SUSSEX house secret
spring, accidentally discovered during
demolition work, disclosed cup
board In which were a number of
costumes and uniforms of the Crom-
wellian period.
Unfortunately, the fabric of which
they were made dropped to pieces as
soon as 1t was exposed to the air, all
that remained of the find" being q
collection of dusty buckles and but
TONS
Perhaps the most gruesome dis
covery was that made by Yorkshire
who, in pulling down a
farmhouse on the Great North road,
found hidden recess behind the
paneling of an upper ROOM
In the recess was the skeleton Of a
man, CARRIED in the traditional high
wayman's costume, with a brace Of
pistols by his side.
Judging from the state Of the skull,
which was badly damaged, the man
had committed suicide long years ago,
Or had been murdered and placed in
the recess.-London Tit-Bits.

The late Bishop Tuttle of st. Louis,
apropos of worldly parsons, used to
tell story.
There was once" he would begin,
"a worldly parson in Philadelphia

street Quaker took In hand.
Friend said the Quaker. I un-
derstand thee's clever at fox-catch-
ing

Gently replied.
Nevertheless, friend, said the
Quaker, If were a fox I would hide
where thee would never find me-
Where would you hider asked
the parson, with groan.
Friend said the Quaker. I would
hide in thy study"

May DAY FETE

May Day comes but once each year
and this occasion will again be OBJ
served in Blackfoot when the public
schools of the city of Blackfoot, will
hold their May Day program at the
city park on the afternoon OF Friday,
May 2. The program will be entirely
different from the one presented a
year ago and will be much more Ella
borate.
The pupils and teachers have been
working hard on this program for
several weeks and the features are
fast rounding into shape for presen-
tation More than thousand chill
dren will be used in this performance
and will include pupils from every
grade in he public schools including
the junior and senior high schools.
The schools present this Fete for
the pleasure of our community. The
public is cordially invited to set aside
few hours on Friday afternoon,
May 2 and come out and view one Of
the most delightful and fascinating
afternoons spent in Blackfoot or else
where. Come out and see your chill
dren perform and if not your own,
then your neighbours.
The line of march of the children
will begin at the Central and Irving
schools, from which the children will
start promptly at 100 o'clock p. m.
The children of the various schools
will join in solid phalanx at the in
tersection of Judicial and West Main
streets and will march up Main street
to the street leading into the city
park. The program will start
promptly at o'clock and will last
approximately one and one-half
hours.
Much of the credit of the various
dance formations and their instruc-
ton is due Miss Alice Smith, teacher
of reading and spelling in the junior
high school.
A brief analysis of the perform
ance shows the opening up of spring
time. The Fairy Queen appears on
the scene and is seated on her throne
while first the birds, then the trees,
followed by the daisies, tulips, roses
and others appear before her; these
will then form the background for
the dance given by the students of
the junior and senior high schools.
Robin Hoods archers and lancers
will also appear among the trees in
this performance.

business. He tuned sixteen instru-

mark he made at Gooding, SO things
are getting better.

MANY ODD SOUNDS
IN JUNGLE AT NIGHT
Weird Noises Seem to In
te1sify Silence.

Stop awhile and listen to the silence
OF the night, doubly intensified by the
many strange sounds from the Indian
jungle. Have you ever heard a tree
cluckle? Neither have |, but l an
persuaded that if tree could chuckle
it would make noise like the weird
lizard whose wooden, grating cry pune
tuates the stiffness with the most pc
cliar effect of laughter, writes Lily
Strickland Anderson in World Trav-
eer Magazine. This creature, some
times attaining a length of five or six
feet, often sallies forth in daylight
across the green, a living throw-back
to prehistoric iguanodon, ichthyosau-
rus or megalosaurus.
One can always near the dismal
rising crescendo of the bowls of jack
ais, complaining eternally to the moon
Of some unforgotten grievance. They
break swiftly from cover, slngly, or In
groups, fitting in front of us like gray
shadows, as we catch the green and
yellow glare from their wild eyes. Or
perhaps 1t is little fox that hurries
by, and somehow seems a more friend
~ creature than the cowardly and
furtlve jackal.' l have walked within
almost touching distance of these
cunning little brown foxes, who, while
instinctively on the alert for danger,
yet sensing friendliness, remained
silent and unafraid as ! passed by. 1t
may be a wild boar that plumbers
headlong through the brush, intent on
some predatory, nocturnal errand.
Jackal, fox or boar, with the coming
of night they all add their notes to the
chorus Of the awakening jungle.
We are surrounded by the subdued
twitterings of night BIRDS the stealthy
rustlings of nocturnal providers, large
and uncatalogued sounds that charac-
terize the tropic night. Farther along
the way, over little bridge that spans
a stream, now happily alive in the time
of rains, and flowing like streak of
liquid silver, we lose ourselves on the
winding roads that take us afar in the
forest
Now revealed in the full, white light
are broken and vine-cOvered walls
that once marked the boundaries Of a
rajah's domain, and there, In that Sc
questered spot, where once was a large
pool, alluring with lotus bloom, palm
jasmine-scented, we see but
desolation and decay. The water has
long vanished from the pool; in its |
place is wild tangle of dead leaves
and brush, and on the crumbling steps
that once led down to the waters brm
the deadly cobra coils his sinuous
length, or sithers away among the |
rustling leaves of forgotten yester
days, and the bright-eyed lizard darts
with ichthyan swiftness in and about
MS haunts amongst the dead vegeta
ion. All Is deserted and lonely In ths
,old moonlight.

About Fire Rricks

LIE Chatelier and Bogitch have been
engaged for some time in researches
upon fire brick and the best makeup
to be employed. Such fire brick is
composed of graduated silica and va
rious oxides in powder used as bind
ing material. 1t Is found that the
best binding substance Is impalpable
quartz powder, which Is produced in
special crushing mills. The use Of
this powder considerably increases the
strength of the bricks at high tenn
perature Of 1900 degrees centigrade.
and this is one Of the most important
qualities Of fire brick.
