Hon. s. Vi. JefIreys of Weiser, Idaho
reader of the FREE Press ever since ID
started i've years ago, writes us for in
formation concerning the Indian spoil
ation claims, and gives the following in
teresting particulars of the growth Of
Welser since the late disatrous ire:
e'l presume you have kept posted in
reference To our great boom. The I. G..
Co, after getting burned out, conceived
the idea of building the town at the
depot, but the old settlers would not
consent, hence division of sentiment.
From the present outlook we are going
TO have two respectable towns in a short
time. There Is now in course of erection
at the depot S25 600 hotel, besides five
or six large business houses, all of brick.
with stone foundations.
The old town.to keep pace,is building
$4,000 brick hotel, and Louis Somners
y Co., are building large brick store.
The foundation for the new SIG 600
Court house at the old town is completed
and the contractor is now only waiting
Tor brick to push it to completion. A
steam roller flour mill, with daily ca
pacity of 100 barrels is on the way from
the east to be put up at the depot in
time to grind the present crop. Not to
bc Ouluoue, lIeSSrS. haas & GALLOWAY
have sold a water right in their ditch to
a Utah and Baker City syndicate, who
have arranged TO erect first-class roller
mill Just back of the Old town, and the
rivalry. while good -natured, is sufficient
to excite the enthusiasm and enterprise
of the residents of both towns.
We are glad to see thatWeiser is rising
from her ashes, and knowing that coun-'
try as intimately as we do, we take no
chances in predicting that the town will
grow and expand into the best town on
the Oregon Short Line. The country
tributary to Weiser is greater in extent
and with larger diversity of resources
than can be found in like area in the
state. In short knowing the state so
thoroughly rs we do, from the 10th par
allel to the Nevada line, and from Ore
gon TO the Great Salt Lake, we have
never hesitated to express our opinion,
based on practical knowledge Idaho and
Washington counties are the source of
the future wealth and the seat of the
future population Of the state of Idaho.

die of the river when it struck current

were carried some distance down the
river when they saw that they could
not reach the shore with their raft SO
they jumped into the river and swan
out. The raft carried away their saddles
and provisions leaving them in almost a
helpless condition. Echo.

School Election in orangcville District.

There appears to be some uncertainty
about which of the three trustees of this
school district reiires Tomorrow. Mr..
Pearson thinks it is himself while su-
perintendent Robbins, who canvassed
the vote last year, insists that Christ
Schmadeka is the one whose term ex-
pires, while the public at large have an
impression that it is Jake Crooks who
has served full term. The vote last
year was tangled up and so far as the
public is concerned it has never been
unraveled. At any rate, Mr.. Pearson
has ordered an election at the new
school house on Monday next, Septem-
Der / for the election of one trustee.
Polls will be open at one and close at
five. Judging by street talk JAS. Ed
wards is to be elected, and more inter-
terest is manifested than we have ever
known before. The district has been in
bad shape heretofore, and has had nei-
ther head nor tail until lately. Things
are getting into ship-shape again, aud
as public interest revives we hope to
see our public school system keep pace
with the growth of the town.

These peculiar portraits are now re-

by the generation used to cabinet portraits and

the generation that lived fifty years ago, when
they were first produced, but by nothing like
the wonder. Photography is now fifty years
oid-or, to be more exact. fifty-one-for it was
little over a half century ago that Louis
Jacques Mande Daguerre, a scene painter in one
OF the theaters Of Paris, made his wonderful
discovery that has chained the sun and revolu-

discovery at their fullest bloom. the pho

their skill, the founder of their profession.

Wolfhounds and BloOdhounds.

From the Detroit Free Press.
1t is now certain that the dog show at the
Detroit exposition will be the larges, and most
important ever held in the west Several ex-
traordinary entries have just been booked
Among them is pack of Siberian wolfhounds.
imported for use on sheep ranches in Texas
and New Mexico, where wolves are very numer-
GUS, very large and very destructive. This
breed Of dogs has never before been exhibited
in America. They closely resemble gigantic
greyhounds and are nearly twice as large as
greyhounds, with hair much the same az st.
Bernards. They are extraordinarily fleet fierce
and powerful. The least dog in. the pack is
warranted singly TO catch and kill the most
powerful wolf ever whipped. They are bred
and used exclusively for hunting the
large and fierce Siberian wolves
and they do not need training. as
wolves are their natural prey. They are noted
for keenness of sight, by which they run ex-
clusively. They can see wolf upon the
prairie far beyond the ken of man or other
dogs, and such is their quickness and iudg-
Inent that a wolf seen in timber or thicket
where he can dodge out Of sight SO rarely es-
eapes that when one does get away it is deemed
strange.

Some Virtues of the French Woman.

From the St. Louis Republic.
English women do not compare we'll with
French ones. The latter is civilized. the other
| is on the road to it, with the odds against her
getting there. Her idea OF wit is II practical
joke; her idea of aiter-dinner conversation il
! an off-color story. She has few big virtues
and no little ones. The French woman would
die for cause a belief, would work for 1t,
would intrigue for it, and would be capable of
enduring almost anything Tor the sake of d
friend.
She understands the art of small talk without
lndulglng IN a scandal and gossip TO her, pos
scsses no attraction unless 1t is witty; for
beauty. brains and Drawn she has IA great adj
mlration, but she can be gentle ana kind, sweet
and sympathetic where none exists.
She reyerences blood, and an Impoverished
lady from the FaubOurg Is treated a guest of
honor where mllIonalres whose titles re-
cent are counted of little worth. The Amerl-
can woman is nearer to the French than is the
English, but even the American woman might
initiate her III some RESPECTS advantageously
Here some of her virtues:
She looks well. which means not in a fussy
| way, after her household.
She Is the best of mothers and the most af-
| fectlOnate of daughters.
She is patient with her husband, giving him
| a smile when she knows he deserves some
thing else, but believing that it Is always a bet
| ter eapon than cross word
She can talk for ons hour in pleasant way
about things and places aud never say q dis
agreeable word about people.
She may be the center of attraction at the
dinner table or in the ball room, and she is
beautifully unconscious OF it.
She can wear a cotton frock so we'll that YOU
will wonder why you ever thought silk or velvet
worth consideration.
She shows respect for every mans religion:
all that she shudders at is lack OF it,
She has read the last new book seen the last
new picture. heard the last new opera, but if you
haven't she never makes you conscious of her
greater advantages.
She rules in country where Salic law does
not exist, and rules by making her sons adore
her, her father love her, and her husband re-
spect her.
