Coeiir d'Alene and Fliilhend In diiiii reservations after the drawing, which will be held next mouth, Fred Dennett, commissioner of I lie general land office at Washington, D. '., said hist night : "The policy of the government is to protect the bona fide settler as far as iossible and to prevent the sM-eula-lor from iiciptiring title to govern ment lands without proper compli ance with the law. Tim interests of any community are injured by the aciiiisitiou of land by persons who do not intend to live t hereon. The settler loses a neighbor, who would otherwise aid him in building roads and in tho establishment of school dislrii'ts. and the merchant loses a customer, who under all rights should be on the laud, putting it to its best nirHses."

Medford Sash & Door Co. FLEAS ARE DENOUNCED AS DISEASE CARRIERS WASHINGTON. July 21). How fleas as guests get mixed with re sulting complexities in the spread of infection iu this county is pointed out iu a report received by the public health service from former Assistant Surgeon George W. McCoy and Mau rice II. Mit.main of Sail Francisco, As examples of the accidental dis tribution of these insects the report says that rat fleas have been found on squirrels and squirrel fleas : ruts. As both rats ami skiiiirrels showing plague infection have hcci found in California, the plaunc may be carried from one of these rodents to the other by means of fleas. All these fleas readily feed on hiima:i blood. The report says there is good reason for suspecting that plngir; among the ground squirrels iu Cali fornia originated from plague among rats through the migration of fleas. Experiments made iu various ways indicate that fleas from rodents will adapt themselves to a host of differ ent species. The investigations also demonstrate that fleas from siiiirrel:t will attack rats even iu the presence of their usual hosts. 1 M&$fy&&&te LOOKING DOWN YUKON AVENUE. One of the most traveled highways of the Alaska-Yukon-Puciflc Ex position will he the ctrcet to which has been given the name of Yukon Avenue. Yukon Avenue makes its way across the exposition grounds from west to east, and the enda are represented by Klondike Circle near the entrance, und Nome Clrclo on which fronts the classic Forestry build ing. It crosses the roaring CaKcades on oriental bridges of handsome design, and from Its central part the buildings of Hawaii and Alaska, .backed by the enormous federal structure, are directly to the north. Just to the west of Klondike Circle the Pay Streak winds In a general direction from north to Bouth, and at thc eastern end the land gives way precipitously to the shores of Lake Washington. It is on this beau tiful shore of the lake the natur.,1 ampltbeatre Is located, and nature has so quaintly formed this delightful spot, that small effort has been re quired of man to transform It Into as perfect an exhibition place as Is possible. Its curving, sloping sides complete a seml-clrcle, and from Its . tiers of towering seats 30,000 spectators may witness the entertainments with no possibilities of occupying a single undesirable seat. A wonderful variety of architectural display is shown by the many buildings through which Yukon Avenue passes, and during Its course tho visitor passes from man-made monuments through pnrts of magnificent forests whose grandeur has never been marred by thc destructive craft of Mammon's disciples. From every sldo the line or horizon is defined by mountains whose lines me delineated In perpetual snow, and stretch ing away as far as the eye run inivel rest the waters of Puget Sound, ytlvs. Hrene Ufamptoit Isaacs "Urtstuctor of Ipiano.
