To the surprise and disappoint-
ment of all Mountain Home prop
erty owners, the commissioners
last week purchased the old school
house, paying therefor 5000, and
will to-day hold a special meeting
to receive bids for the removal and
fitting up Of the same for a county
court house. The act of utilizing
this old discarded shack" for a
county building is certainly very
discouraging to all well-wishers OF
this beautiful little city, for it sure
ly will delay the erection of decent
and convenient county buildings
here for the next 20 years, and it is
questionable il the county will save
dollar by the transaction. Truly
that old shanty will present a sick
ening and repulsive appearance
sitting under the wings Of such
magnificent structures as our large
and handsome school house and
Turner's new three-story brick hotel
with the reform school building
possibly looming up a little to the
south. But we suppose there is no
use in kicking against the powers
that be and our people must take
the medicine prescribed by their
chosen physicians without frown.
Miss Lydia Tremayne and Miss
Mabel Payne entertained nine
of Mountain Homes young gentle
men at a Bachelor dinner, last
Sunday. The first course consisted
of display of burnt and very indi.
gestible food which seemed to con-
fuse the guests and caused them to
wonder if they were the victims of a
huge joke perpetrated by the young
ladies, but soon the table was
cleared Of the obnoxious plates and
a superb, elaborate and well cooked
, layout soon appeared which caused
the young men to "smole n smile
that indicated great satisfaction
The table was very prettily deco
rated with pink roses and smi.ax
Each gentleman was presented with
a souvenir OF the occasion and Q
! bouquet Of flowers. We are sorr,
to relate that Johnny Helfrich i.
bemoaning his fate in having to re
main a bachelor the rest of his days
while Frank Osgood is very much
pleased at the prospects ahead o
him Those present were Messrs.

The Corker- HOWE mouthpiece i!
now pleased to designate the BuLLE
TIN as "the mossback organ" Al.
though this fellow intended the APP
pellation as slur we do not accept
it as such, for we regard it a great
honor TO be termed friend of sucl
a worthy class as the old-time set
tiers of this section Of Idaho, and al
the same time we heartily welcome
to our midst all honorable, self-re
speeding and sane newcomers.
