Husbands, Read This.

Husbands, don't think when you
have won a wife that you have also a
slave. Don't think that your wife has
less feeling than when she was your
sweetheart. Her relationship to you
is simply changed, not her nature.
Don't think that you can dispense
with all the little civilities of life
toward her on marrying. She appre-
clates these things quite as much as
other women. Don't be gruf and
rude at home. Had you been that
sort of fellow before marriage, the
probabilities are that you would be
sewing on your own buttons still.
Don't make your wife feel that she is
an incumbrance on. you by giving
grudgingy. What she needs give
cheerfully, as if it were pleasure to
do so. She will feel better, and so
will you. Don't NEEDLE IN the affairs
of the house under her charge. You
have no more right to be poking your
nose into the kitchen than she has to
walk into your place of business, and
give directions to your employees.

THE CONCERT LAST EVENING
IL was complete Success-Receipts
$3.50; Profits, Sl11.5O.

The concert in the Theater last
evening drew large and highly ap.
preclative audience, manv persons
having come down from Bullion to
attend, and few from ketchum. All
the numbers were executed in such q.
manner as to call forth enthusiastic
ana deserved encores, and the per.
torrance was rare treat from no..
ginning to end, the audience seeming
10 want more and more, and to he
barely satisfied with the encores. The
entertainment concluded with mu-
steal extravaganza entitled ''Il Jacob"
the cast OF characters being as follows:
Jacob, a retired bootblack, now a
millionaire" J. L. Richardson; "Lucv
Ann, the fair maiden of his choice"
Mrs. Jos. A. Rupert; "Sophronia, a
young lady Of fortune and
teellng,' Mrs. Jos. NJ. Burkett
The concert was followed by a
dance to music by Professor Deius's
splendid orchestra, and those so dis
posed tripped "the light fantastic toe"
until near daylight.
The ladies who got up the entertain
ment have the satisfaction of scoring
financial success. The total receipts
were $l6O; expenses SIS so, as fol-
lows: hall $3.50; music s21; moving
instruments 81; printing IS; balance

amount will be turned over to the

SHE DENIES THE CHARGE.
A Woman Who Was Unjustly Accused of
Aiding PierSon in His Flight, Denies
the Charge in a Ladylike Manner.

Mrs. Layton, of Bayhorse, having
been wrongfully accused of supplving
eatables to Pierson, the condemned
murderer who escaped from the
county jail in this city some time ago,
writes as follows to the BIackfoot
paper which printed the charge:
BAYnonsE, Idaho, Oct. 8, 1888.
EDITOR REGIsTER: | was never
more astonished in my life than l was
on hearing that was SO wrongfully
accused of carrying food to one George
Pierson, who had escaped from Jail ON
Wood River. He is stranger to me,
and do not think he was ever in this
vicinity. Furthermore, that my name
was brought up in court in derision
aud making in Challis. From my
heart | pity you! For it is a wonder
to see in this part Of the country
woman who is true to her husband,
and who thinks enough Of him, while
he is working hard in mine a mile
or more from town, to carry him a
nice lunch, or meet him as he is
plodding his way homeward after
IA hard days work; for | am sorry
to say it is more fashionable for wives
and daughters to be entertaining
nice (?) young men (?) in husbands
absence, than to be washing his shirts
or cleaning the faces of his dirty chill
dren. Please do not call me ':mother''
unless you respect yourselves better
than you do. Besides, when YOU do
set a. detective Oh my path don't
choose stud horse poker man, nor a
wild Missourian to catch IA live
Yankee. Mrs. LAYTON.

LETTER POSTAGE.
The New Rate That Went Into Effect
ON the First Of October.

AS much ignorance exists in the
minds of the people concerning the
reduction Of postage which took eff
feet on the first instant, the following
information will prove of interest to
many ANXIOUS inquirers: The pos
tage now on single letter (weighing
no more than one half ounce) is two
cents to all parts of the United States
and Canada, instead of three cents as
formerly. The drop-letter rate Of
postage remains the same, that Is two
cents per half ounce or fraction
thereof at free delivery offices, and
once cent at all other (non- letter car
rier) offices. No charges are made
in second, third or fourth class matter.
No arrangements have yet been made
for the redemption of three-cent
stamps and envelopes in the hands of
postmasters, or for the exchange by
postmasters Of such stamps and enve.
lopes in the hands Of private holders.
Until further notice therefore postmas-
tiers will not make exchanges for the
public, nor will they return to the de-
partment the stock remaining in their
own hands after the 1st of October.
Stamped envelopes spoiled in direc-
ting will however continue to be re-
deemed at postage value as provided
by existing regulations.
Those persons having a supply of
thrce-cent postage stamps on
hand can use them on third class
--printed-matter and merchandise,
or in the case of double rate letter.
a three cent and a one cent stamp
will answer the purpose. OF course
the old style two cent stamp will We
received in payment Of letter postage.
Foreign postage rates remain the
same with the exception of Canada,
to which country a one half ounce
letter will go for two cents.

MeteOric Showers.

The earth is nov passing through
the meteoric belt. Every year at
about this time shooting stars are very
numerous. Scientists have many
theories about these things, but none
are entirely satisfactory. 1t was just
90 years the 18th and 18th of this
month when the great meteoric shower
occurred. So magnificent was this
shower that it stands out as the grand
est display Of the kind ever witnessed
by mortal man. A few old people
still remember it well.

Too Honest to Cheat.


About 8 o'clock Sunday evening,
the last of September, n. G. Smith,
the mayor of Gimlet, wrote a letter

stamp asked Mrs. Smith; "postage
will only be two cents tomorrow, by
the time you mail the letter."
"That's so, "rephed n. g., "but the
rate is three cents up to midnight, and

Great coal discoveries are reported
in the Goose creek range, in the adj
joining county Of Cassia. There is
one vein in the mountain fourteen
feet thick-four feet Of Stag partings
and ten feet of solid coal. In all
there are no less than ten distinct
strata of coal visible in the side Of the

teen feet of solid coal without a part

this is the largest known coal deposit

OF Interest to Cooks.

A Comstock housckeeper who buys
her coffee roasted in the berry has dis
covered that by again roasting it in an
oven the beverage subsequently made
is much more delicious than that
manufactured in the usual way. 1t
is also said that the real flavor of tea
is only brought out when the leaves
are heated before pouring on the boil
ing water.
