SHEEP ON RESERVES.
With Exceptions. They May Be Pas
tured in Oiegon.
A pamphlet, entitled "Rules and Re-
i 1 . r ' , . T" ..
gumwoua uuveruiug forest reserves,
"suea by isinger Hermann, general com-
miS6ioner of the land office, promulgat-
-M..vm u-
Jer the 8Ct of congress of June 4, 1897,
ceived by the local United States author
ities. The following sections will be of
interest to sheep men and mining men
"The pasturing of livestock on the
public lands in the forest reservations
will not be interfered with, so long as it
appears that injury is not being done to
the forest growth, and the rights of
others are' not thereby jeopardized. The
pasturing of sheep is, . however,, prohi
bited in all forest reservations,' except
those in the reason that sheep-grazing
has been found injurious to the forest
cover, and therefore of serious conse
aoence in regions where the rainfall is
limited. i .
"The exception in favor of the states
of Oregon an Washington is made be
cause the conttnous moisture and abond
ant rainfall of the Cascade and Pacific
coast ranges make rapid renewal of herb
age and undergrowth possible. Owners
of sheep are required to make applica
tion to the commissioner of the general
land office for permission to pasture,
stating the number of sheep and the lo
cation on the reservation where it is de
sired to graze. Permission will be re
fused or revoked whenever it shall ap
pear that sheep are pastured on parts of
the reserves specially liable to injury, or
upon and in the vicinity of the Bull Run
reserve, Crater Lake, Mount Hood,
Mount Rainier, or other well-known
places of public resort or reservoir sup
ply. Permission will also cease upon
proof of neglect as to the care of fires
made by herders, or of the violation by
them of any of the forest reserve regu
lations. "The law provides that any mineral
lands in any forest reservation which
have been, or which may be shown to
be such, and subject to entry under the
existing mining laws of the United
States and the rules and regulations ap
plying thereto, shall continue to be sub- j
ject to such location and entry, notwith
standing the reservation. This makes
mineral lands in the forest reserve sub
ject to location and entry under the gen
eral mining laws in toe usual manner.
WATER
SNmKE FIGHTS EEL.
Terrific
Combat Which Finally Ended In
the Eel's Escape.
"Did you ever know that there is a
deadly antipathy between a common
water snake and' an eel?" asked the
fisherman, according: to the Indianapo
lis Sentinel. "Well, I never knew it
until an experience I had in witnessing
a fig-ht between the two. Personally,
I have the greatest dread of eels. I'm
more afraid of them than I am of i
snake, and you can imagine my chagrin
when I happened to hook one on on
of my fishing expeditions. I was afraid
to touch it, and all I could do was. to
let it dangle in the air. I could not get
it off my hook, and I was meditating
what to do, when altogether unnoticed
I allowed the slimy object to drop into
the water. In a moment I saw a" big
water snake make a dive for it. At
the first lunge it caught the neck qt the
eel squarely between his teeth, and I
could see it sink its ugly-looking fangs
into the eel's flesh. I waited anxious! y
to see the developments. With its grim
hold still on the eel's neck the snake,
quick as it takes to tell it. wrapped
its sinuous body around its antagonist's
neck in an effort to squeeze it to death.
The body of the eel was too sleek, how
ever, and the snake's coils, despite all
it could do, wou'd slip down into thi
water. Time "and time again it tried to
squeeze the life out of its antagonist.
never for an instant relea'jingitsholdon
the eel's neck, but the body of the lat
ter was too sleek for it and every time it
would slip down. Finally the hook
broke,and the eel made good its escape.
HANS AND LENA.
Ten I Baf No York She Utf s Ms Not,
Says Malmgreen.
. "I want you to put him somewhere so
he can't bodder me so many times,"
said Mrs. Berglin, of 291 Market street,
to Justice Kersten when she appeared
against Hans Malmgreen, who she
chrarged with being disorderly, says
the Chicago Journal.
"What has he been doing?" said the
justice.
"Veil he comes py my house all the
time and he bodders me and bodders
me. He never vorks, all he does is bod
der me."
"What have you got to say about this.
Hans?"
A tall German, lad with light blue
eyes hung his head in shame, swung
one foot backward and forward, pulled
lus cap nervously, and said in a low,
timid voice:
"We was in lofe, you know, and she
went back on me two or three times
alretty. . When I haf vork she lof es me,
and when I haf no vork she lofes me
not"
'Well, you had better transfer your af-
lections somewhere else, ofr if you
bother this woman again I will send you
to the bridewell. Do you understand ?'
'Yes, chudge; I vill say to her right
here: "Good-py, Lena, you vill never
see your Hans again.1 "
So they parted. . . . .

POINTS ON SNAILS.
Kothlne Meteoric Bat Mnch That Is In
teresting In Their Career.
The Smithsonian institution has hit
npon something extraordinary in
snails. The creatures may be slow,
but they hold the record over all other
animals for prolonged vitality under
adverse conditions, says the Prow
dence Journal. Stories of toads dug
out of rocks in which they had been
imprisoned for ages arj 'apocryphal:
but recent discovery has established
the credit of this humble mollusk as
No. 1 in the tenacity of life.
Only the other day a specimen from
an island off the coast of Lower Cali
fornia, inclosed in a drawer with part
of the molluscan collection, was found
to be alive. It had no food or water
for more than si:c years. When placed
in the box with moist earth it pro
truded its feet, begun t move about,
and teemed to be as well as ever.
Some time ago a f ?v snails of a differ
ent species, gatiicrcd in Mexico,
reached the Srnithsonhin institution
and were placed ia u box. They re
mained undistur'HMl for two years and
three months, at the end of which
time they were put into a jar of glass
with some chiekweetl and a smal
quantity of tepid water. Pretty soon
they waked up and appeared quite ac
tive. Pond snails, which arc sometimes
found alive in lo;;s of mahogany from
Honduras, pos'-ess equal endurance.
Specimens curried from Egypt to
Paris. pa.eke.d in mwdust, have arrived
uninjured. Other kinds have been ex
perimented with by shutting them up
in pill boxes ar.d dry bags for years,
but they have survived. The limit of
their vitality is yet 'to be ascertained.
Land snails in cold climates bury
lemselves in the ground or under
wad leaves in 'winter; in tropical re-
rionv they tanuiu torpid during the
init season. When about 'to start in
ou u period of sleep they seal up. their
shells with a close-fitting door, which
sometimes is a shield of thin, tran
sparent mucus, and in other cases an
opaque membra nee us thick as a visit
ing etir l. lU'hinil this the animal con
structs ntI.iT wall's which serve like
many partitions to protect it against
prolonged eold or dryness.
It is believed that just as the seeds
of plants arc distributed by winds, so
likewi:- the eggs of snails arc scattered
abroad on the breezes, thus dissemi
nating their species. They are very
prolific aniuiuls. Some of the great
land snails of the tropics, which live
on trees and weigh a pound apiece, lay
eggs that look strikingly like those of
pigeons, being quite as large. The
eggs are . deposited among decaying
vegetation, the heat of decomposition
rmtcbiiur them.
FARMING IN FO
N LANDS.
Germany has recently been import
ing largely of horses from Denmark.
Live bees can now be forwarded
through the post office all over the
French territory.
An international show of stallions
will be held in Vienna October 14-17 at
the instigation of the royal ministry of
agriculture.
A special commission has been or
dered by the French parliament, to
study ways and means for improv
ing the breeds of sheep.
The mahogany tree thrives in Kanga
lore, India, where a plantation has
been raised and will be maintained by
the forestry department.
Thk importation of sheep from Den
mark, owing to the spread of foot and
'mouth disease there, has been prohib
ited by the authorities at Hamburg.
The agricultural department at
Queensland is distributing large quan
tities of seed among Ihe farmers who
suffered from the very disastrous floods
in that colony.
An agent of. the New Zealand gov-,
eminent claims that colonial butter
after its arrival in England is shipped
to Brittany and thence returned to
London as Brittany butter.
FASHIONABLE FANCIES.
Sleeves have reached their limit
and the most approved models are less
balloon-like than heretofore.
A popular combination is very fine
French cloth with sleeves, belt and
shoulder-ruffles of shaded velvet.
Shaded velvets are quite as popular
for rammer as they were during the
winter. As millinery trimmings, when
judiciously used, nothing can be more
elegant and desirable.
New jackets have sleeves large
enough to accommodate the enormous
puffiness of the dress shoulders, and
while this, of course, accentuates the
size of the arm, that fact seems to be
no objection.
Parasols seem to have become mere
ly forms on which to exhibit the most
enormous quantities of lace and other
thin materials. The amount of goods
that may be put into one of the fash
ionable parasols of the day is almost
past belief.
Lace and embroidery, embroidered
lace especially, will be among the
leading trimmings for the summer.
There seems to be no limit to the ways
in which these beautiful garnitures
are used, as something new is brought
out almost every day.

SOCIETY IN GAUTEMALA.
Unspeakably Dull for the A vera to Youth
Brons;ht Dp In America.
Life in Guatemala City to a foreigner,
and especially a young man, says the
Xew OrlcansTinies-Democrat, possesses
about as much attractiveness from a
standpoint of amusement as would a
residence in a graveyard. There is ab
solutely nothing to do except work,
sleep and eat. The only place a man
has to go when he has finished work is
to a saloon, and there be has nothing to
do for recreation but drink. The door
to the best society is shut in the face of
Americans 'gringoee,' as they are
ealled by the haaghty dons no matter
what their standing. Of course, when
one has official dignity lie is invited to
the president's ball and other official
functions, and has entree into society,
but there isno such thing as social in
tercourse in its American sense. No
body is allowed to see a young lady un
less it is in the presence of her entire
family Under the watchful eye of her
duenna, and there isn't much pleasure
in this kind of a visit to most young
men of America. Guatemala City has
a ixipulation of 80,000, but has no
theaters. There was an opera company
of fair character there two years ago,
but there have been no attractions at
nil of this kind during the past season.
Living is very high in Guatemala City,
and salaries ore by no means cor
respondingly high. I would not advise
any young man to go there with the
idea of making his fortune. There has
been too much immigration to the coun
try as it is. . '
REMARKABLE LONGEVITY.
A Family of i:irht Whose United Ag-es
Foot I'p to 669 Years.
The most remarkable instance of
longevity in the history of the Nut
meg state, perhaps, is noted in the
Kimball family of the town of Preston,
one member of it, Mrs. Abby S.
Cook, who is passing the closing years
of her life in the home of her daugh
ter, Mrs. William' II. Cook, of Franklin
street, this city, having celebrated the
other day the 90th anniversary of her
birthday. Mrs. Cook is the widow of
tlnv lute Isaac II. Cook of. Preston. A
large number of her relatives, friends
and neighbors called at her home on hrr.
anniversary day and congratulated her,
and the venerable lady, who is still
and active and of a cheerful spirit,
ntertained them.
Mrs. Cook fs a member of a family
Tt eight children, sons and daughters
f Klishn and Lucy Lathrop Kimball,
of whom are olive and in vigorous
health, with the exception of Mrs. Sybil
A. Branch, the eldest, who died two
y.-.-ars ago at Uoxbury, Mass., aged 90
years 4'2 months.
Here are the names and ages of the"
-urviving members of the band: Abby

. THE FUNNEL TRICK.
An Interesting Problem Devised by Sport
ive Calif orn la na.
Jerry Lynch has finally learned the
funnel trick. He took it in two doses
one on one evening- and the other the
next. The senator sauntered up to the
Bohemian club the other day and saw
t wo or three of the younger members at
tempting: a new feat, and he watched
them with interest. One of them, says
the San Francisco News Letter, stuck
a funnel inthetop of histrousers, threw
his head back, plnced a 50-cent piece on
his forehead and tried to drop it in the
funnel )y slowly lowering his head.
After all had failed Jerry insisted on
trying it, though all had tried to
dissuade him from attempting a feat too
difficult for them. The funnel was
placed iu the waistband of his
trousers and he threw back his head to
receive the coin on his expansive brow.
At that juncture a pitcher of ice water
was emptied into the funnel, and by the
time Jerry got through dancing the
jokers had vanished. The senator's
temper improved with dry raiment and
the next night at the club he started in
to show a couple of friends the funnel
tricic
' "It's this way." he explained, "you
put the funnel in the top of your panta
loons, so. then throw your head back.
so, and wow!"
Again Jerry was forced to change his
raiment, and he is not showing people
what he knows about the funnel trick.
There is now living in Hartland, Me.,
at the ripe old age of 75 years, one of
Maine's notable widows. This is Mrs.
Ellen Phillips, relict of George, a
brother of Wendell Phillips. Her hus
band was a graduate from Harvard col
lege, a member of the famous class of
'28, among his classmates and intimate
friends being Dr. O. W. Holmes and
James Freeman Clark. Mrs. Phillips
has in her house several antique relics
of great interest and historical value,
among them beng a marble top table
and drawer which belonged to John
Brown, of Harper's Ferry fame, and a
copper ewer and sideboard, once the
property of John Phillips, the first
mayor of the city of Boston. She tells
many an interesting reminiscence of
Wendell Phillips, with whom she was
intimately acquainted.
