Ages on ages of the growth of hu man reason lapsed before there was the least glimmering among the wisest of mankind of the rotundity ol earth: Other ages were submerged In the unmeasured paBt before there came the crudest of scientific asser tion of this rotundity. The greatest of philosophers of antiquity not so far distant bettered tbe earth was flat; that It had this or that for a founda tion; that foundation having this or that monster animal for Its founda tion, or that the whole rested on the sea. River Names. Nansemond, the name of a river In Virginia, la from the Indian word Nawnschlraund, "the place from which We were driven away." The Flint, in Michigan, was called by the Indians Perwonigo, "the river of the flint," from the abundance of this stone on Its banks. Humboldt river, In Nevada, was named by Fremont In honor ot Baron Humboldt. Early Marriage Arrangement.

UNITED STATES PREPARED FOR WAR New Guns Outrank Those of Any Nation Lessons Are Taken From Vera Cruz and European War. Aviation Being Developed. Washington, D. C Secretary Dan iels Sunday night made public a letter be has written to President Garfield of Williams college, detailing the work in the navy during the past two years. Mr. Daniels wrotein reply to Mr. Gar field's request for material to meet statements that the United States is unprepared for military emergencies. Excerpts from the letter follow : "There are now in active service, fully commissioned, 225 vessels of all characters, which is 86 more than were fully commissioned when I be came secretary. There are also 101 vessels of various types, in reserve and in ordinary and uncommissioned, cap able of rendering service in war. We have under construction and authorized 77 vessels (nine dreadnaughts, 23 de stroyers, 38 submarines and seven aux iliaries) as compared with b4 vessels (five dreadnaughts, 14 destroyers, 23 submarines, three gunboats and nine auxiliaries) which were under con struction March 1, 1913. "All vessels in active service and in reserve are supplied with munitions of war. Within the last two years the quantity of all has been steadily and greatly increased. For example, we have increased the number of mines on hand and in process of manu facture by 244 per cent and torpedoes by 90 per cent. By the enlargement of the naval powder factory we Bhall soon be able almost to double its former capacity, and like enlargement of the torpedo works and the equip ment of a plant to construct mines will still further increase the quantity of such stock, and the possession of these plants in times of emegency will en able the department to be in a better state of preparedness as regards the supply of ammunition than ever be fore. "The personnel of the navy is at present composed of 4355 line, staff and warrant officers and 53,171 enlist ed men. "For many years officers have writ ten and talked about the formation of advance base material and the practice of exercising landing parties of sea men and marines, but never until Jan uary last year was the navy thus ex ercized. Then, under instrructions from the department, Admiral Badger carried out a .comprehensive exercise, in which the professional advantages gained by officers and men were in estimable. Diseases Handed Down. Noah and the other patriarchs didn't have nearly as many different kinds of diseases to face, because they hadn't enough ancestors to hand them down a variety. Consequently their constitutions were not constantly be ing weakened as are ours today. For example, there is no reference In very ancient literatures to a cold In the head. The Greeks and Romans seem to have been the first peoples to suffer from It. Shasta limited Hits Automobile; Kills four Children, Injures Driver Creswell, Or, The northbound Shasta Limited of the Southern Pacific company Sunday struck an automobile driven by F. E. Sly in front of his home here, smashed it to fragments and killed four small children who oc cupied the tonneau, besides injuring Mr. Sly so badly that it is thought he cannot recover. The dead: Beulah Morns, aged 12; George Kobinette, aged 8; Vincent Treanor, aged 8; Dorothy Treanor, aged 6. Mr. Sly is an elderly man. He had just brought his automobile from the garage and alighted to open the gate leading to the Southern Pacific track, intending to cross the Pacific High way, when the four children came along on their way to Sunday school. They were invited to ride and clamb ered into the car. It was apparent that neither they nor Mr. Sly saw or heard the approaching train, for Mr. Sly got in and ran the automobile onto the track directly in front of it. I he horrified witnesses heard a crash and saw the automobile hurled high in the air and fall at one side of the track. The train sped on without stopping, its engnle crew unconscious of what had happened. Dankl Expects Long War. Geneva General Dankl, of the Aus trian army, is of the opinion that the war will not come to an end soon. This Austrian commander, who has been active in defending the Carpathian passes against the Russians, expressed this opinion to Major Tanner, of the Swiss army, who is also correspondent of the Basel Nachrlchten. He declared the war would last for a long time, and said he could not fix even an approxi mate date for its end. He said also that the Swiss government had pre served Its neutrlaity splendidly. Pribiloff Inhabitants Get Supplies. Seattle, Wash. The power schooner Bender Brothers, which loft Seattle March 5, with a cargo of supplies for tno inhabitants of the Pribilotf Islands. in Bering Sea, who were threatened with starvation, has returned to Se attle, after an uneventful vovaire. Much of the time the weather was summerlike. On St. Paul Island, the natives had been reduced to their last barrel of salt meat, but the food sup ply on the other islands had not been exhausted. Spring was far advanced when the Bender left. Floods Recur In Texas. Austin, Tex. Another heavy rain swept Central Texas Sunday and the Colorado river and smaller streams, al ready swollen out of their banks, be gan rising rapidly. No additional deaths have been reported from the floods and the casualty list remained at 21, of which 14 occurred here. Prob ably a score) of persona are missing.

Paper Covers a Protection. Undeniably, paper covers are of some aid In preserving the fresh ap pearance of books, but neither the ap pearance nor the feeling o a covered book is agreeable. Still, for those who have no objection to them, covers are a good thing. Nothing Is better than ordinary brown paper, except In some unusual cases, as, for example, the cook book, which, as every good house keeper knows, should be covered with oilcloth.

More war than peace has reigned in the world as far back as records can be obtained. The Temps, com menting on the action of the Socialist qpngress In London, warns the people against the Idea that war can be abol ished. It says statistics show that from 1496 B. C, to 1861 A. D., there were 227 years of peace and 3130 years of war; that is, one year ot peace to 16 of war. Depressing. No matter how young a man may be in his sympathies, he can't help feeling more or less depressed, as he gets along to between forty and fifty, when he walks down a fashionable residence street and sees some ot the samples of the future fatherhood and motherhood of the race. Columbus (Ohio) Journal. When a Small Boy Washes. A boy was recently asked to give a description of water, and this Is what he wrote: "Water is a white liquid which turns completely black the mo ment you put your hands In it." WOMAN WOULD HOT GIVE UP Though Sickand Suffering; At Last round Help in Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta - ble Compound. Richmond, Pa. - " When I started taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound I was in a dreadfully rundown state of health, had internal trou bles, and was so ex tremely nervous and prostrated that if I had given in to my feelings I would have been In bed. As it was I had hardly strength at timet to be on my feet and what I did do was by a great effort I could not sleep at night and of course felt very bad in the morning, and had a steady headache. , ' "After taking the second bottle I no ticed that the headache was not so bad, I rested better, and my nerves were stronger. I continued its use until it made a new woman of me, and now I can hardly realize that I am able to do so much as I do. Whenever I know any woman in need of a good medicine I highly praise Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg etable Compound." Mrs. FRANK Clark, 3146 N. Tulip St., Klchmond,Pa, Women Have Been Telling Womea for forty years how Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has restored their health when suffering with female ills. This accounts for the enormous demand for it from coast to coast. If you are troubled with any ailment peculiar to women why don't you try Lydia B. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound? It will pay you to do so. Lydia E. Pink ham Medicine Co., Lynn, Mass. B'U'!'l'iB.!IHM!iW-l!-".M 'iV; i Reply Assumes Von Bernstorff To Be Laboring Under) "Certain False Impressions" President Pens Note and Bryan Signs It. Washington, D. C The United States government replied Thursday to the recent memorandum in which Count von Bermrtorff , the German am bassador, declared that "if the Ameri can people desire to observe true neu trality, they will find means to stop the exclusive importation of arms to one side, or at least to use this export trade as a means to uphold the legiti mate trade with Germany, especially the trade in foodstuffs." The American note, which is signed by Secretary Bryan, was drafted at the State department, but was finally penned by President Wilson himself. After pointing out that the language used by Count von Bernstorff is sus ceptible of being construed as impugn ing the good faith of the United States in the performance of its duties as a neutral," the note "takes it for granted that no such implication was intended and suggests that evidently the German ambassador "is laboring under certain false impressions." It is then declared that while the relations of the United States with any one of the belligerents "cannot wisely be made a subject of discussion with a third government, " such cor respondence between the United States and the allies as has been published shows "the steadfast refusal" of the government "to acknowledge the right of any belligerent to alter the accept ed ruleB of war at sea insofar as they affect the rights and interests of neutrals." The attitude of the United States on the question of exportation of arms is restated namely, that to place any embargo on arms during the progress of a war would be "a direct violation of the neutrality of the United States." The note refers to the spirit of friendship which the United States desires always to manifest toward Ger many and its people, and concludes with the declaration that the neutral ity of the United States is founded upon the firm basis of conscience and goodwill." Profits to Railroads in Grain Are Claimed by Farmers' To Be Great Chicago Statistics of operating ex pense and freight revenue on four leading Western railroads were pre sented before W. M. Daniels, Inter state Commerce commissioner, to sup port the objections of the National Council Farmers' Co-operative associa tion to a proposed advance of 1 cent a hundred pounds in the grain and grain product freight rates, which are among the increases asked by 41 Western railroad systems on certain commodities. The tabulated figures were compiled by Jean Paul Muller, an expert rate case statitician, formerly connected with the statistical department of the Interstate commission. After reviewing in detail the meth ods he used in assembling the figures showing gross profit and operating ex penses of railroads, Mr. Muller said : It is my opinion that grain traffic is more profitable to these four car riers, the Rock Island, the Santa Fe, the Burlington and the St. Paul roads, than the average of all other traffic carried by them." His deductions were made from re ports and statistics furnished him by the railroad officials. In the review of the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific operating expenses and revenue, Mr. Muller declared. "The total road cost divided by the reported number of loaded freight car miles, with an allowance for the cost of empty return haul figured at 40 per cent of the loaded gives a road movement cost per loaded car per mile of 69.28 cents. Apples To Be Released. London American shppera are com plaining vigorously to the American embassy because they are compeleld under the regulations of the British to bear the expense incident to delays in the examination of cargoes of ships detained at Kirkwall and other British ports. Charges for loading and un loading cargoes and expenses incurred in the examination of suspected goods are assessed against the owners of the cargoes. The procurator general gave assurances that efforts would be made to hasten release of American apples. Astronomer Is Rewarded. Berkerley, Cat. Professor Armin 0. LeuBchner, director of the astro nomical observatory of the University of California, was notified in a tele gram received here that the Watson medal for astronomical research work has been awarded to him by the Na tional Academy of Sciences now in ses sion at Washington, D.

Tacoma The predicted advance in potato prices came sooner than expect ed, the vegetable this week going to $35 a ton. Dealers say prices will go still farther upward and will in all probability reach $40 within the next few days. Dealers explain that other rises are certain because the holders in Eastern Washington are demanding $30 a ton for the tubers in the field. At that price it costs commission men here $33 to lay a ton down and they cannot sell with a reasonable profit at $35, they say. The supplies in East ern Washington are now pretty well cleaned up, it is reported. Local potato growers have become active again and are planting many times more spuds than they did last year. The local crop will not make its appearance until about the first of July. Bluestem is quoted at $1.33; forty- fold, $1.30; club, $1,281; red Fife, $1.28, and red Russian, $1.23.

Five fruit growers were elected as the Yakima members of the new board of trustees of the North Pacific Fruit Distributors. Bartlert Pears Injured. Quinaby The recent frost did little damage to prunes and peaches, as they were too far advanced, but fruit grow ers report a steady dropping of Bart lett pears. The shortage of Bartletts was marked last year and there are few dried or canned ones held over, Other fruits are looking well and all garden stuff is far in advance of for mer years, outstripping the early gar dens of last year, which broke the record previously set for earliness, but which fell short in quantity, owing to the intense heat that prevailed. Mohair Prices on Down Grade. The course of the mohair market, as shown by the pool sales already held in Oregon, is downward. The first pool sale of the year, a small one at Walker ten days ago, was at 321 cents. Then, on Monday, the Eddyville pool of 22.000 pounds brought 32 cents. Later the pool at Riddle was sold and it brought 31 cents. The Riddle pool was bought by a Southern Oregon dealer. Mohair dealers regard the market as entirely speculative. In view of the slack condition of the plush and dress goods trade many of them consider the present prices un warranted.
