' FISIH HATCHERIES AT BONNEVILLE THE O. R. St. N. COMPANY HAS LEASED LAND AT BONNE VILLE TO THE STATE FOR A FISH HATCHERY. Master Fish Warden II, G. Van Dusen has succeeded in leasing a tract of land at Bonneville for a fish hatchery. The negotiations Uve been pending sometime. There was some' opposi tion to the site because the opera tors of fishwhecls were not sure but that a hatchery in their vicinity would be a detriment to their business. This was obviated however by the clause which was inserted into the lease that the State will in no way in terfere with the enjoyment of all fishing rights in the vicinity of the proposed hatchery. The clause reads: "The state hereby agrees that the location of the salmon fish hatchery and feeding station on the premises herein described, and the use of said premises for such purposes shall in no way interfere with the fishing rights or priviledge now exercised by the Navigation Company or its gran tees or licensees during the life of this lease, its extensions and re newals." This clause was satisfactory to the State (represented by the Master Fish Warden) and the O. R. & N. Company and after the state had made ts survey and submitted it to the company the lease was signed. The land is the north half of the northwest quarter of section 28. CHRISTIAN PSYCHOLOGY. NEW YORK, Feb. ll.-What, it is stated, will be New York's first ex periment with "Christian Psychology" will be tried at Christ Episcopal Church on Upper Broadway during the third week in Lent, beginning March 23. Rv. Dr. Edward Worces ter and his first assistant, Rev. Samuel MacComb of Emmanuel Episcopal Church, Boston, have been given permission by .the rector of Christ Church to come here for a trial of their methods in dealing with functional nervous disorders, which they attempt by the methods of re vealed religion following an accurate diagnosis of the case as can be ob tained from specialists in neuralgia. Patients sent by physicians are ac cepted and the Boston clergymen perform their services without charge. Speaking of the plan yesterday the rector of Christ Church," Rev. George Alexander Strong, said: "We are not committing Christ Church to this idea nor are be re pudiating it. I have long known Dr. Worcester and have seen the work he is doing in Boston. I am open to the conviction that there is in man, there is in God, some attribute we have not yet made use of. Perhaps this is it." TAFT CLUB ORGANIZED. SPOKANE. Feb. ll.-The "Spo kane County Taft Club" was organiz ed amid much enthusiasm. Plans weref started for a great Taft meeting to be held later. The Palace Restaurant The ever-increasing popularity of the Palace Restaurant is evidence of the good management, and the serv ive, at this popular dining room. For a long time the reputation of the house has been of the best and it does not wane as time progresses. The system used, that of furnishing the finest the market affords, and all can be obtained, in season, is a plan that will always win, coupled as it is with the best of cooking and prompt service. A common saying nowadays is "Get the Palace habit" "SCOURING THE LAND." I have just been examining an old book containing the accounts of the charity estate of West Haddon, em bracing the years 1773-1850. Under date Aug. 17, 1776, is the following entry: ; "Paid Richard Worster seven days' work, cutting thorns and scouering and stoping of gaps, 10s. 6d." The term "scouring the ditch" is used on Jan.. 8, 1781, and appears many times after this date, the last instance being on April 28, 1820. London Notes and Queries.

A PRESENT DAY UTOPIA. Moore Island, tho Happiott and Fair eat Spot on Earth. Hugo Farton, writing in the Onttag Magazine, says that the happiest and most beautiful spot on earth today la the Island of Moorea, one of the Society Islands, In the south seas. Aa a con trast to strenuous American methods this description sounds alluring: : "Whenever you are thirsty a word will send a lithe brown body scram bling up a tall palm tree truck, and in two minutes a green cocoanut is ready for you to quaff the nectar of the Poly nesian gods. It Is worth tbe trip down bore to eat the native vlttals, for you get at every meal things yon never tasted before! and each seems better than Its predecessor; to see your din ner of fresh water shrimps, sharks' fins and roasted sea urchins. The ba nanas you eat there are eleven varie tiesbaked, raw. fried, dried grow a few rods back in the valley; ditto tbe breadfruit, tbe pineapples and about everything else on the board. If s nice to have your morning coffee grown iu the back yard. Guavas grow In such profusion they ore used as pig food, grated cocoanut is fed to hens, while sensitive plant is considered excellent fodder for cattle. "For perfection of the human "body the Tabltlan is unexcelled, if, indeed, he is anywhere equaled. Tneyare a large race, both men and women being noticeably taller and more fully de veloped than Anglo-Saxons. I douut I! any Society islander ever went through a whole day in his life without having a wreath of flowers on bis bead or a blossom behind his ear. The love of flowers is Innate with man, woman and child. They can't pass through a patch of woods without emerging with a gar land. Every gay mood calls for flow ers on their hats, in their hair, behind their ears, and their life is an almost unbroken sequence of gay moods. Scarcely a native on the island of Moorea can speak a sentence o" Eng lish, but every one you meet greets you with a courteous smile and the wel coming word 'Ia-ora-ua' (Yorana)." Poetry Defined. x George P. Morris, the author of "Woodman, Spare That Tree," was a general of the New York militia and a favorite with all who knew him. Mrs. Sherwood In her reminiscences tells how another poet associated the gener al with a definition of poetry. Once Fits-Greene Halleck, the' author of "Marco Bozzaris," called upon ber In New York In hlsfold age, and she asked htra to define for ber what was poetry and what was prose. lie replied: "Wheu General Monte commands his brigade and says, 'Sol diers, draw your swords!' he talks prose. When he says 'Soldiers, draw vow wilUne swords 1 he talks poetry." WINTERING SHEEP. It is not cold weather that hurts sheep so much as it is getting wet Sheep to fatten well should be fed regularly twice a day, morning and evening. Sheep naturally drink a little and often, and should have water convenient to them all the time. Don't feed well and give good shelter, then allow your sheep to drink ice water to cool off. JUST.
