w. w. McNair. famous for his dorint

W. w. McNair, famous for his daring
explorations, died recently in India. His
death was caused by ovcrtaxing his
powers by mountain climbing, exposure
and lack of food while prosecuting sur
veys during the last two years in AT
ghanistan. BY shaving his head and
staining his body, McNair, in the dis
guise of an Indian doctor, spent two
months exploring the sweet valley of
Kafnstan. No European had ever man
aged before to set foot there, on ac-
count Of hostility to the native tribes.
He found that the people there num-
bcrcd about 200, 900, and were nearly
white in color. The women were very
beautiful. His disguise was penetrated
before he completed his investigations,
and he was compelled to flee for his
life. With only two native assistants
he also explored the Asphan and His.
arak valleys.

Rice planters in the South are accus-
toned to burn their rice straw to get it
out of the way. We understand, says
the Manufacturers Record, that recent
practical tests have demonstrated that
this straw makes excellent paper mate
rial. One paper company has gone so
far rs to order some 1000 or 1000 tens of
this straw TO further experiment. Rice
straw may yet prove TO be cotton seed
in miniature. AT any rate, the results Of
these experiments will be watched with
interest

The CaIendar We Are Living Under.

In the Blank Grammar School yes,
terday the divisions of time were under
consideration i'll the class. The teacher
had explained the origin of the Gre
gorian calendar and rccounted the diff
culties which arose from the Augustan
calendar, and noted the reluctance of
the Greek church to adopt the reform

turned to the class and said

Silence on the part of the class. But

Where They Grow.
Idaho CITY World.

Idaho City World.
Mount Idaho has a hog canning
establishment. We always had a
sneaking idea that North Idaho
was a good field for that business.
If you northerners run short of the
raw material, just come down south
and We'll sell you drove that
have grown fat on the husks of the
political field. They are swift
runners, but are not the razor
back breed; cannot be driyen, but
are easily tolled with liberal
showing of public fodder. Boise
county can furnish but a very few,
but Ada and Alturas each have a
big field full for sale cheap.

TEXTS SMOKING A SIN?

This, my dear hearers, is a
much mooted question. A
great many good people hold

smoke stack of hades. They
are badly mistaken, my friends,
badly mistaken. The mere
act of smoking is no sin-the
sin consists in what you smoke.
1t certainly is against divine

the law of man, to smoke one

whole thing away and the three are

The festival and wood saw
ing match at the Presbyterian
church Thursday night, was a
pleasant and laughable event.
After an hour or two of war upon
ice cream and cake, six charming
young ladies appeared on the stage
armed with wood saw, a stick of
wood and a chair. All things be-
ing in readiness the word "saw
wood" was given, and the six fair
contestants spat on their hands and
began a series of graceful but very
mysterious movements, which
somewhat resembled a clothes line
on a windy day. Miss Della Gil
gan was awarded first prize and
Miss Annie Carter the "booby"
prize. We fancy had the married
ladies been given a chance, they
would have shown much greater
familiarity with the weapon, J
