Naturalists w hu have studii d tho habits of the salmon ;i.lv nee tho curluus theory that nftcr the 1Kb i,ro hatched they leave their river home fur the broad ocean nnd that it is four yu.vs before they return U spawn and die. This' theory hag been re jected by many of tho salmon men, and among the unbelieving is Kir. II. D. Mo Gulre, tho state's fish protector, whose experience entitles his opinion to respoot. Says Mr. Srettna'u: "If tills theory is correct, how Is it that fish of biiuli vastly different sizes and weights nro oatight in the Columbia? I should think that there would be some thing like uniformity in the fish if the; were all of tho same noe. However, I ex pect to settle the theory one way or the i other very soon. The superintendent of the United States hatoltery at tho Clacka mas has obtained permission to retain 30,000 or 40,000 fish from this year's hatch until next spring. Soino of those fish I in tend to have marked with silver wire be fore they aro turned looso, and then I will offer a reward for any of thorn afterward caught iu the Columbia, Should any of them turn up within a year or two, it will, to my mind, disprove tho four year theo ry." Portland Oregon inn Everybody Honest With Newsboys. However dishonest somo peoplo mny bo with others, there seems to bu nn unwrit ten code of morality in tlioir makeup that prompts thorn to be square with newsboys. Since tho establishment of stands on tho prlnolpal corners, from which tho newsboy sells his stock, lie may, with safety, tnko a walk, look at a procession or go to his luncheon. Ho leaves his pnpers and n hnndful of ponnios on tho stand, and when anybody wants a paper lie takes it and loaves ills ponny or makes change for him self and passes on. Inquiry of a number of propriotors of stands elicited tho infor mation that not ono of thorn had over lost a paper or missed a ponny by chango or otherwise slnoe tho system was established. Thero may be sevoral reasons for this, but ono of them is that tho newsboy, whutovor mny be his other faults, is always honest with tho public, and invariably ncoouirao flivting. Chicago Chroniclo.

Mr. Spenser Wilkinson gives tho follow ing account of his feelings In going through the streets of Peshawur, and how lie discovered the spell by which wc hold India: "The town gate of Peshawur Is a mliy from tho cantonment, and the morning aftor my arrival I drove in with no com panion but a native interpreter. Peshawur, with its mud and wood houses, its lat tice windows and its multltudo of mn, is infinitely picturesque. But the impression of tho first visit upon an Englishman is not due to the qunlnt nppearnnce of tho houses nor to tho eastern dross of tho in habitants. "Thero arc about 80,000 natives in tho city. As soon as you are through tho gate and inside the walls you aro among thorn. Not another Englishman is to bo seen, and possibly enough you are, at the moment, tho only ono in town. Every ono looks at you. Thero is no staring or no rudo noss, but you feci tho oyos. "The looks of the first half dozen men you pass, as they sit In their shops or stnnd in tho streets, give you a now and strange sensation. You straighten yoursolf and hold your head up with arosolvo, of which you aro hardly oonsoious till afterward, Hint if n knife is plunged into your back you will not fllnoh. Tho oyos nbout you suggest that If thoro wero no oantonmont, no others to ask for nn account of you, your throat would bo cut and your corpso thrown away, and thnt the pooplo in tho fetroot would look on without moving. " You Immediately feel that thero is a responsibility in being an Englishman. You aro a representative of your race, and all that you do or say must bo worthy of the position. The first duty is not to mind the 80,000 people in Peshawur nor any thing they may do. Those first five min utes in tho Poshawur buzaar reveal to you tho secret of British power in tho oast. It is impossible without utter foarlossnoss." Spore Moments. New York Hotels. "Tho gorgeous now hotels of New York are not as homelike, aud comfortable as tho old ones, " said a frequent visitor to town. "Tho new palucos aro so heaped and llttorod about with costly brio-u-brno, paintings and statuos that the proprietors havo to keep servants hanging around all the thuo to see that tho pretty things aro not damaged or stolon. Ono conscqucnco Is that no ono feels at ease in them, nnd there is no such tiling as privacy oxcept you lock yoursolf in your bedroom. To hold a prlvnto consultation with n friond in ono of tho parlors is impossible, unless you do it in whispers, bocnuso thero Is ul ways a mnld or a dotoctivo loitering near yon. And if you whisper you becomo a 6uspioious churactor at onco. " A woalthy westerner whodrossos very carolessiy mado a scono iu quo of those luxurious lounging rooms tho other day. Whenever ho wont into tho parlors ho was watched and fol lowed. Either a maid or a man took turns in koeping oyos on him. At hist ho went up to tho detoctivo and ordered him out of tho room. "I live here," snld ho, "and I don't propose to bo shadowed another five minutes." Tho man wont out to iuqulro whether tho indignant person was a guest. But before he went to tho offico ho sent a maid into tho parlor to seo that the angry man did not stool a statuo or iiu onyx ta ble.
