"Fatty" ArbncrJe jwren come- In public and degenerate rake in private, has ben held for trial on the charge of manslaugh ter and given his freedom on bail. Instead of being incarcerated upon a murder charge. The re duction was due to the arbitrary ruling of a police judge. If the orgy had beon held on the. Barbary coast instead of in the St. Francis hotel, and the ac cused been enveloped in the ob scurity of poverty, instead of a millionaire of national renown, does any one suppose for a min ute the same procedure would have 'followed? He would have been hustled unceremoniously, to prison and stayed there until his trial. There would have been no mysterious disappearance? of wit nessei, none of useless repetitions of salacious scandal, and blind justice would have proceeded Bpeedily and remorselessly to ex act the penalty.- doughboy is a fine lad, but he Is not as constant as he might be.

Comment is making upon the theory of sundry English physic ians that couples who have been married a certain number of years should take their vacations separ ate and apart. Lots of them do, Knt f i nnt advertised as a scientific creed. The big idea is that -the brain and body are apt to be bettered by an altered environment. Even couples, that are passionately de voted to one another find re freshment in separation. One psychologist asserts that If the average husband and wife parted for a month each year there would not be half as many divorces. When the wife has to ait opposite the same man at the breakfast table for 100 years or so her mind get3 to running in a narrow groove and finally disappears al together., Can you blame Jt? The doctor's prescription is that once every year-the husband and wife would travel in opposite di rections. There should not on'y be a change of companionship but of scene. Then the old home and the tie that binds will be appre ciated at their full. There may be something in this. Mental stagnation and rust comes through continued association with the same person? an' scene. A temporary variation in com panionship and a fresh viewpoint will accomplish much in blowing the cobwebs away. That's what the doctor says. The woman who is parted for a time from her hus band and. family returns to them refreshed and strengthened. She is also more capable and willing for service in their behalf. ' Of course, if she has taken ad vantage of. her vacation to run off with a handsomer man, all bets are off. - its "consumption. k H?!? entist is !n charge and the .n fare !a ade op cf wholesome staples, U fuU meal fa served for a quarter. t Is essential-td good health to what t0 eat' aCd equally essential to know how to get It. ; SPKEU1XG THK PBOGIUM.

Secretary of the Xavy DenCT has recently ordered reductions In the wages paid to some 70,000 civilian employes of the navy de partment.

A vigorous protest was made against the reductions, but the secretary has insisted tha. the reductions are ' no greater than have been experienced . in civilian employment outside of the government service. The re ductions ranged from 13 to 30 per cent, and will be reflected In a saving in the total expenditures of the government for the fiscal year. ":. .

The directors cftbe bank; say ?the progress U due to the system' of scientific lunches' Installed. The menn Is provided by the bank and the em American ployes are given " ample time for There was close to SI 00.000 worth of milk and beef stock in i the show ring at the stadium last night, when th cattle exhibits were paraded before the jammed and double-decked audience. Led by the first of the Guernseys, fol lowed by the Jorseys, and then with the Holsteins and Shorthorns and Polled JvngU3 and Herefords and Red Palled, th hundreds of animals crawled or capered or fought their way around the ring miles and miles ot beautiful feasts, it seemed as tbev wove back and forth hunting room to step in safety. Some of the big bulls looked like a million dollars worth of trouble; one of the big roan Shorthorns, handled without a leading pole, did everything but jab a playful horn through his keeper and run amuck for the fun there was in a good fight. But he didn't do it, and the crowd was able to breathe easil within ten minutes after he "as over. All the stock juCgtng is over, and the breeders and feeders are beginning to catch up in their sleep. With the strain of having their valuable, high-tempered ani mals under new conditions and with the judging ring just ahead, the showmen have been about as sleepless as their most nervous charges. One can fairly feel the relaxation of tension around the stables and pens, and one can walk through a barn full of thou sand dollar calves without feeling as if a bull horn was about to jab him In the back, or a nervous herdsman do as much with a pitcn tork. They're getting tame as cart horses all over the grounds. Some interesting comment has been made on the qualitry of judging in the various depart ments. It would be hard to im agine as universally popular a st of judges as those in charge here this season. When a man raises a fino calf, or pig. or colt, and sees it growing into prospective championship through his daily, almost hourly care; he is likely to feel about like a young mother vlth her babe that there isn't any other evon nearly as good; and a decision against his pet Is' not only an Insult but an assault 83 well. Dut the genera! acquiscencs In the decisions oi the judges is shown' in the statement made by one of the Guernsey exhibitors: "We got some prizes; not all we wanted when we left home, MU we honestly believe all we have earned. The large number of exhibitors, and the quality ou stock shown, makes it a real hon or to get anywhere' in the money. In one of tha classes, there were 26 entries, ai.' of good stock: to Ket even a third, or fifth. Is a breeding achievement. Some of the stock we showed, had looked like grand championship stuff in other years; this time it wax placed lower, not because it was reficient, but because there wa other that was honestly better. We are satisfied that It was a square deal that gave higher awards to some other stock, and our right way to change the con ditions Is to breed and feed a lit tle better next time." . The same story seems to follow every lme of stock, and the fair seems -to be leaving a splendid taste in the mouth of Oregon. Visiting stockmen who have been making the northwestern circuit have said no end of good things about the Oregon fair, a to the quantity and quality of bcth live etock and general fair exhibits. A number of herds and flocks have visited the other fairs Spokane, Helena, Yakima, and some of the larger county fairs and all have spoken about the ex hibits, the weather, the quality of the ftock and the ability of the judges., There hasn't been a single thing lacking in the estimation of the average foreign exhibitor.
