One morniri? 1 stopped with friend ill Hood Kiver where there was a well kept lan and a garden full of rosea, other plants, trees and Vines, Desiring information about a blue el'ler tree, covered with showy panicles of ripe fruit, I asked about them and learned that they wore edible. The mistress of the place said she allowed the berries to remain on for the birds in winter, whin it sometimes gets pretty cold here. .She also told n that she bins suet in winter, chops up and puts it at the base of the tree fcr the birds that stay and come down from Alaska -just as we are doing at home in Illinois! 1'erhaps a list of the birds.

The game, which was played at the old Armory building and which drew a big crowd of spectators, result ed in a score of 2iS to 11 in favor of the Portland lads. The Hood Kiver boys assert that their failure to make a better showing i.i due to lack of coach ing. They play a good individual game but lack systematic work. The Jeffer son siuad, which was composed of a huskv lot of youths, was Duke, Mur phy, Vos.pi r, West, Anderson, Karl, Ashworth and Catterlin. The Hood Kiver line was Morse, center; E. Franz and Shay, forwards; and Shep pard and Lewis, guards. The local team will play a number of l'ortland school teams during the months of February. Contests are planned with Lincoln and Portland Academy and another with Jefferson. The high school quintet licked the Jelferson boys by a large score last season. Burned Car Destroys Soys. Whole companies of soldiers and countless animals, wild and domestic, perished at Havre, Mont., last week, when a mail car on the Great Northern Uailroad took fire between Havre and Great Falls. All the casualties were due to the progressiveness of Santa Claus in abandoning the old reliable reindeer team for the swifter light ning express, says a dispatch. The fact that tho soldiers were of tin and the animals of wood will soften only parially the grief of the settlers children to whom the Christmas pack ages were mailed by basern friends. Kijtlit Carloads in One Day. Last Friilay was hay day at the O.-W. K. & N. freight station. Eight carloads were switched into the local siding at one time.
