An exhibition of the craze in London
for carrying out color. decorations, says
the New York Sun, was displayed at a
dinner given by the Women's Gardening
Association. 1t was all green and white
Pretty green baskets were filled with
Solomonls seal, lilies OF the valley, and
white roses, and arranged on a green
cloth. Green candies in white dishes,
punches of green leaves tied with white
ribbons. and white roses in the finger
bowls completed the scheme of color
A new occupation for women, says the
New York Times, is suggested in the pro-
posed establishment of an association for
the care Of fconvalescent children. Mem
bers are 10 be sent out like nurses for
short periods. A child has scarlet fever.
perhaps; he is separated from his broth
ers and sisters, and most likely has a
trained nurse who, though invaluable in
actual illness. is not equal to the tedious
recovery period 1t is here that the
cheerful, educated child-oving woman is
to step in and take the burden off the
mother 1t reads well, perhaps, but is
almost too theoretical And isn't it Just
at this moment that the mother is glad to
take her little invalid back under her
own care again, after having yielded him
willingly, yet unwillingly, to the skill of
the professional nurse
Speaking of wedding gifts, says the
New York Advertiser, there is a very
valuable hint contained in the wise selec-
ton made by a good-hearted but small
pursed old lady who wished to present a
favorite with something, but whose
means would not allow her TO 60 in for
solid silver cut glass or ceramics. She
therefore improvised a large basket, into
which sne put cake and bread-pans that
had been tested in their oven qualities,
and which were a hundred per cent
more serviceable than the shiny tins that
are always part of young housekeep-
ers first outfit Then she covered an
ironing board with old sheets and blank
cts, made iron-holders, and laid in be
sides several bundles of dust cloths: Very
prosaic it sounds, but very useful it GER
tainly was, and if the bride was per-
mitted to express her real thoughts, she
would undoubtedly say that the practical
homely gift was, after all, the one to do
her the most good.

CRANE CREEK.

Owing to the frequent rains the
valley is perfect garden from Bran
mans to Kennedy's, grain all up and
looking perfect, and one cannot help
thinking how negligent Weiser is, not
to increase the road communication
with this important section A few
miles of road that can be easily
built, would open this, and also the
upper settlements on Squaw creek,
and turn the tide OF trade direct to
Weiser. A connection with the road
built by Walker Bros is very easily
made and would open up this section.
There is general cry of hard
times, but everyone looks fat and
contented as possible.

THE WEISER SIGNAL.
THURSDAY, MAY "a. 1894.
Is IDAHO A TooL2

The SIGNAL is the only paper in
the state of Idaho to have n
correspondent tramping with the
Commonwealers One strange fact
is brought out by the communication
in this Issue. The industrials were
invited to ride out Of Oregon They
were inveigled out of that state and
dumped into Idaho where the U. S.
marshals Immediately fell upon them
like hungry wild beasts and even
brought back those who had reached
Wyoming What lies underneath all
that? Why was it done? Why did
they not sail into them in Oregon?
Why was Idaho chosen as the am
buscade in which to fal. upon them
and sicze the host for us to feed?
They must be kept in the west and not
allowed to approach the trembling
eastern nabob, but yet they must not
be left in Oregon. Did the vast po
litical machine see menace in all
all those votes if cast in the coming
Oregon election? Is Marshal Pink
ham carrying out the will of the
great Republican powers that be?
Was it that by pulling them out of
that battle ground and nabbing them
in Idaho both ends were accomplish
ed? Who can solve the mysterious
under-current that is plainly visible?

NOTHING IN A NAME.

SO says the axiom. The SIGNAL
has believed differently and has fire.
quently substantiated its belief by
giving names of killed and injured in
mine accidents and strikes, asserting
that the simple names told tale
louder than columns. We ask our
readers to try and remember some of
those instances, try and recall all
those "slSis, ''innis, tolfs" and
'iches with which they ended. Then,
when you have that fixed in your
mind let us turn to the Salt Lake Tri-
