Going into her room, I sat down on
the side of the bed and told her every
thing in as few words as possible. She
was of a somewhat timid and nervous
disposition, and my news visibly af-
fected her. She sat up in bed, tremb-
ling and clinging to my arm.
"Perhaps," she whispered, s.if we
lock our bedroom doors and keep very
quiet, they will go away without COM

"Why, you goose, it's not us they

THE RAILROAD MEETING.

1t will be a good day for Caldwell
when the branch road to Boise is built
1t will be good day when we have
half dozen railroads on the ground
now covered by wagon roads. Firm in
this belief, we ask large attendance
at the railroad meeting Tuesday night.
The object Of the meeting is a simple
one. The Boise City committee,
Messrs. Bush and Brumback. having
secured the right Of way to the north
bank Of the Boise, Caldwell is asked to
secure it on this side. Now il this road
was to benefit Boise alone. we would
kick hard, but as it will add to the ad-
vantages of Caldwell immensely, we
desire to help it. The roadbed out of
Caldwell passes through the farm of
Mr.. B. F. Young about three-quarters
Of mile. Mr.. Young has given more
han his share already, and it will not
be fair to ask more. He will sell the
necessary strip at a reasonable valua-
ion. Business men and all others who
will share in our increased prosperity |
'ught to buy that ground. The meet !
ne is called to see if they will. So we
lope to see them thore with open hearts
nd open pocket-books.

CALDWELL, By virtue of its %',e-
qualed location Nth reference to the
great farming, stock gros0ing and lam
6ering districts of Idaho and Eastern
Oregon, is destined to be the commercial
center Of all the east region betceen Salt
Lake and Portland.
Cald,oeU is situated IN the heart Of the
most populous and scealMy GALLEY in
Idaho, soith other settled valleys near and
aoith such an immense scope Of arabic
land adjacent get to be tahen TO insure on
agricultural merit alone a city aoithin
fre gears of ten thousand souls.
As the mines Of Colorado are tributary
to Denver and those of Utah TO Salt Lake,
so ,oiH those of the middle northwest be
tributary to CaldwcU, because geography
and rail and i0agos routes are aoiM as.
Calds0eu is beautiful for situation,
possesses one Of the best climates IN the
aoorld, the right kind Of people TO insure
the fostering of inStitutioes and enter
prises Uhich are calculated TO make life
a0orh liying tor-he'ace wiH be an at

We are here because acc belieUe all the |

W1NTED-4 GRIST MILL.

Will few of our farmer friends lend
us their ears for few moments on Q
matter that concerns them deeplyP We
want srist mill in Caldwell and 30 dc
they. We want them to take hold OF
this thing, work it up, and run the con-
Germ. We don't want them to ever
again 60 to Middleton or Boise for flour
and pay ST. 90 barrel, with the haul
extra. We want them to own and run
a mill here. The profits the Middleton
and other millers make in year upon
their custom alone will equip mill.
Power will be cheap and plenty. Stock
at $40 share, the individual amount
limited, will be subscribed for quickly.
Then the Middleton correspondent Of
the Boise Democrat will not have occa-
sion again to yawp as he did last week,
as follows:
l am told that nearly all the mer-
chants Chat is, the new element or
cemers) are importing and selling Salt
Lake flour and grain. There must be
something wrong with thesgood people
of that vicinity if they patronize set Of
men that are spelling directly their (the
farmers) own business; and the mer-
chant that expects to make money out
of q farming community and tries his
best to cripple the farmer in that way,
must either be fool or take everybody
in this country to be one.
There must be something wrong with
our long-eared friend across the river.
Does he not know that the 'good people
of that vicinity" tried to get those mills
to grind their grain and give them the
-four at figure which would pay the
farmer a reasonable price for his prod
uctP Does he not know the "new ele-
ment" offered to handle that flour free
of charge for accommodation Does he
not know that Mr.. Frank Coffin offered |
to build house adjoining his store and |
sell Mr.. Humans -four without charg-
ing cent for handling it, if Mr.. Thur
man would bring it herep Does he not
know that all these offers were declined
for the reason of a cursed hatred of
and all in itp II the yawper
does not. he has all the less excuse, for
Of all the liars on the face of the earth,
the ignorant liar is the most despicable.
Il he does, in writing in that manner he
exhibits more gall than most mortals
possess; he must have been born with
'wo gals.
If mill is started here the merchants
will take the product quickly in prefer
'nce to the imported article. Then we
IAN let the howlers howl louder than |
ver. We believe the project is good
me, easily perfected. We want Mr..
lellar, Mr.. Galloway, Mr.. Kinkaid, Mr.. ,

The PhiIadeI phia Times, 1884.

The TIMES will enter upon the new
year stronger and more prosperous
than ever before in its history-more
widely read and quoted, more heartily
commended and more fercely CRITICIZE
ed, with more complete organic ion,
and an ADLER staff of ontributors-and
with the same independence and fear
lessness that has made it successful and
powerful in the past.
The TIMES has no party to follow, no
candidates to advance, kut will meet
every issue, as it has ever done, with
consistent devotion to the right, to
honest government, and the public WEI
fare. And, while maintaining its posi-
t on as the leading journal Of Phiade
phia, it will aim to be continually in
the advance in all that can add value
10 newspaper. The value of news
paper is not in its size or display, but
10 the intelligence and care, the con-
ciseness and freshness with which 1t is
edited. THE TIMES spends lavishIy for
news from all parts of the world, but
all its dispatches are carefully edited
ard coudenst d, in order to give the
comp etc news of the day in the most
concise and attractive shape, and With
it large aliety of entertaining and

to enrich columns, and to make it
journal ADAPT, d both 10 the busy men
and TO the ,isure OF the home circle, a
welcome visitor to intelligent and hon
est citizens Of every political, religious,
and so, Il taste.
THE WEEKLY TIMES is altogether |
different from the weekly newspapers
of twenty ears ago. The d,y of those
papers is gone by. The tel, graph and
better local newspapers every where, es-
pocially in the thriving centres of rural

THE WAR IN EGYPT.

A battle took place on March 18th
at Tamal Wells, between Graham's
forces and the rebels. The following
account is taken from the Altd Cali
,f0rnid.
London, March 18th. -During the
confusion which ensued when the
Arabs made their wild rush upon the
English lines, and caused them to
retreat, the newspaper reporters and
other on-combatants took part in
the fray, and used their revolvers
freely and with deadly effect upon
the enemy.
After the battle, Osman's camp
and three villages were burned.
Among the trophies, Osman's stan
dard was taken and Tewfik Bey's
recaptured. The British loss is con-
siderably heavier than first reported.
The number of killed reaches 100,
and the wounded $50.
Gen. Graham S forces are return
ing to Suallin.
Osman Digna has fled to the hills.
ARAB INDIFFERENCE TO LIFE.
The Arabs retired before the Eng
fish slowly and sullenly. They were
defeated, but not put to rout. They
walked away as if sauntering through
a bazaar, with their arms folded or
swinging at their sides. Many were
shot down, but this did not hasten
their companions speed.
1t was impossible to take prison
ers. Wounded Arabs would be mo-
tionless, without uttering a single
cry or moan, and watch their chance
to stab the advancing British with
knife OF spear. The victors walked
among the wounded as among sc
many vipers. One wounded Aral
killed British marine during Tho
night. Another attempted to stall
Col. Stewart while his aide-de-caml
was giving a wounded man water.
