A Great Queen's Letter.
"We may wonder It the world will
ever bo allowed to see the private cor
respondence amassed bj tbe late Queen
Victoria," says a writer. "It is stored
away In a strong room built Into the
walls of Buckingham palace, and the
queen shared her confidence with no
one. So long as she was physically
able to do so she opened and closed
tbe safe herself and arranged its con
tents. When she was too feeble to do
this she employed an old and trusted,
secretary, but even he hod to work
under the royal eye. lie was never al
lowed to keep the keys nor to read the
letters that be handled.
"Queen Victoria was always a volu
minous letter writer, and she was In
constant communication with most of
the royalties in Europe. Every do
mestic secret and privacy of royalty
during half a century is said to be rep
resented by the contents of this won
derful safe, and it is easy to believe
that the modern historian would find
bis hands full if he were permitted to
browse among these letters.
"But probably he will have to wait
a few hundred yenrs. aud then his
popular audience win be a languid one.
It Is one of the Iron! of life that we
can never have things when we want
them." Chicago News.
Snake Killing Ants,
It is difficult to believe that ants will
kill snakes, but such la the case, and
scientists have discovered that in cer
tain regions this class of reptile has no
more persistent enemy. The large red
brown forest ants are tbe most Im
placable, and a curious thing about the
attack of these tiny creatures on the
reptiles is that they kill it for food and
not on account of natural antipathy.
When some of these ants catch sight
of a snake they arouse the whole com
munity at once. In platoons and bat
talions the little fellows set. upon it,
striking their "nippers" into Its body
and eyes at thousands of points at
once. So rapidly is this done that the
snake has no chauce of escaping. He
soon becomes exhausted and dies lgno
minlously. The ants then tear off the
flesh, gradually stripping off the skin
and working inside it. Not until thoy
have carried away everything except
the bones and the skin do tbey abandon
their prey.
When "Lloyd's" Was a Coffes Housb.
The man who gave his name to the
great maritime institution, Lloyd's,
was not, as might be supposed, a finan
cier or a shipowner, but only a humble
coffee house keeper. Of his history
nothing is known save that he kept a
coffee house in Lombard street at the
beginning of the eighteenth century,
which, from its proximity to the Royal
Exchange, came to be a favorite assem
bling place of the underwriters. The
first mention of his house occurs In a
poem, "The Wealthy Shopkeeper," pub
lished in lTOOt- -
Then to Lloyd's coffee house to go ha

To read the letters and attend the sales.
In 1710 Steele dated some numbers
of the Tatler from Lloyd's, and Addi
son also makes mention of the coffee
house In the Spectator. London Chron

rising again and then renewing their
flight. Sometimes the dolphin may be
seen in rupid pursuit, taking great
leaps out of the water and gaining
upon his prey, which take shorter and
shorter flights, vainly trying to escape.
until they sink exhausted. Sometimes
the larger sea birds catch flying fish
in the air. The question whether the
flying fish use their fins at all as wings
is not fully decided. The power of
flight is limited to the time the fins re
main moist.

Arc you interested In getting
hold of land for a home?
Do you want a place suited
to diversified farming?
We have bargains to offer
in the three tracts listed
below.
No. 1..

250 acres of wheat land, 30 acres now.
set to alfalfa, wirh 20 acres more that can
be put in, and all under good ditch; 800
acres grass land. This is an ideal dairy
and heg ranch, lying on the creek, with
plenty of water the year around. One of
Eastern Oregon's Best Propositions.

No. 3.
A BIG BARGAIN. 3800 acres,
on which is now growing 65 or 70 acres
of alfalfa, and 25 acres more can be put
in, making nearly 100 acres that come
under ditch. On this ranch three good
crops of alfalfa are grown each year and
but one irrigation is required; it is sub
irrigated by from 15 to 20 springs on the
place. There is a good orchard of 150
choice bearing fruit trees; 9-room resi
dence with water piped in from spring;
large sheep shed and other outbuildings.
About 1000 acres of this farm is good

terms on balance.
This is one of the best rural homes in all
Eastern Oregon and is certainly a snap at
the fie u re offered.
To the homeseeker or the investor there are no better
propositions offered than these; nowhere in the North
west can such land be had at anything like such figures.
These farms join and can
separately as desired.
