ALMDT hunian Intelligt me In pos. ir.g has been sho'n by an uld jrray roosttr and u little brwn lien that have betn requisitioned as models (or drawing ptiiili'ius in one of liie city schools. The pupil h:ive made sufficient progress In their work so that they draw living objects. They have pictured flowers. houses ujid other inanimate things and are now Jrawlng birds. Next they will tike up the study of animals ami will draw from livlnif models. Tin; drawliiK teacher asked uine of the pupils who could do so. to feteli cliKkcus to school from which the class could draw pictures. A number of fowls were brought, but they proved shy or uneasy and all moved about so much that they made poor subjects for the children's pencils. One boy suggested that he had a rooster at home that would, he felt sure, prove an apt poser. The next day the lad brought hl.s biff gray rooster and placed him on the teacher's desk w1hu the hour came for the drawing lesson. The fowl seemed to realize his responsibility and strutted up and down the desk as proud as a peacock on Uie sunny side of the barn, lie could not have posed better If he had been trained to it ail his life and seeim d to enjoy being the cvnosure of all eyes. The next day the same boy brought a little brown lien to school with the rooster and she was placed on the desk where the students could see to draw her. After she had posed for an boor, the little brown hen laid an egg on the teacher s desk and thereupon set up a territic cackling. The big gray rooster assumed an even prouder position than before, flapped his wings and crowed lustily. The teacher and pupils were delighted with the scene of barnyard domesticity and to make a proper climax for the Incident the teacher was given the egg by the owner of the chickens. The egg witb the inter esting history was eaten the next morning at the teacher's breakfast. Fire In Theater at Boise. BOISB, Idaho, March 7.

Griffith, Deputy United States Marshal, who returned yesterday from Port Orford. brought with him a note that purports to have been written by C. Stacy, of Rainier, while in an open boat about 15 miles off Columbia bar. The message Is written with a lead pencil, and was found in .an empty whiskey bottle which ' was picked up on the beach near Port Orford recently by George Sutton. The note bears date of March 12, 1906, and la as fol lows: "Just finished this bottle Expect to be drowned. Open boat, IS miles oft the Columbia (bar), . "C. STACY, Rainier." The finding of such messages or dinarily do not attract any particular attention, from people living along the Coast, but this one had the appearance of genuineness. The finder requested Mr. Griffith to have the note pub lished, hoping thereby to ascertain if there is such a person missing from P.ainier, and also if possible, to learn the fate of Stacy.
