while returning with some friends from
Long Valley, accidentally shot himself
with Winchester. The bullet entered
the calf of his left leg, and, ranging up

The Convention.

Never in the history of Kootena
County has the Republican party put
up such Il model ticket As that named
at Cpur dAlene last Wednesday. To
/ begin with it was u model convention.
CONF o3ed, as WAS generally remarked
OF the representative Republicans OF
the various precincts of the county
There were few proxies in the conven-
ton. The peoples will was carried out.
All sections OF the county are fairly
represented on the ticket. The cand,-
dates themselves are generally the
strongest men that could have been
named. The ticket is one that the
kootenai Herald can support with
great enthusiasm and we shall support
it from top to b, tom. The election Of
the legislative ticket means four votes
Tor the reelection Of senator Fred + .
Dubois. That Of itself should, and will
commend itself TO the voters of Root
enaI county. Old kOOteuai must do
her duty to the gallant silver champion.
We believe that the ticket will be elected
by large majority. We base our belief
upon the fact that the Republicans are
largely IN the majority in kOotenai
county and that the ticket Is one that

THE Demo-Pop fusion scheme in this
state includes the barter OF United Stat. s
senator 10 the Populists. Just how the
combination OF politicians who divided
up the spells at Boise can bargain ON
United States senator with any degree
OF certainty is question that has not
been solved. We presume the people
Democrats, Republicans and Populists-
who are Tor silver will have something
to say when election day comes. They
will vote for Bryan electors and the Du-
bOis legislative ticket, no matter what
party the candidates represent. The
Populists have been bunkoed in this

ANCIENT ExTRAvAGANCE.
Lavish Display of Jewelry by Men and
Woman.

Lavish Display of Jewelry by Men and
Women.
The great display of jewels by women of
fashion on both sides Of the ocean has been
severely criticised, even by those who could
we'll afford to wear them If they desired to-.
But If the precedent of history furnishes
any justification for this fashion the jewel
wearers of the present day are thoroughly
justified. According to Pliny, Lolita Pau
line, tho wife of Caligula, wore on her
head, arms, neck, hands and waist pearls
and emeralds to the value of Sl,6s0,000.
Faustina had ring worth $780, 900.
Domitia had one for $500, 900 and C@sonia
had bracelet worth 100000. Seneca be-
walls that one pearl In each ear no longer
suf11ces to adorn q woman; they must have
three, the weight Of which ought to be in
supportable to them.
There were women in ancient Rome
whose sole occupation was the healing Of
the ears of the bellies who had torn or 9TH
erwise injured the lobes with the weight of
their pendants Popp@a's earrings were
worth $4,000, and Cesar's wife, Calpur-
MIA, had pair valued at twice that sum.
Marie de- Medicis had dress made for the
ceremony of the baptism of her children
which was trimmed with 80, 900 pearls and
5000 diamonds and at the last moment
she found it was 40 heavy she couldn't
wear it and had to get another. But men
led in the splendor of the middle ages, and
Philip the Good Of Burgundy often wore
jewels valued at 5000, 000 When he walk
ed along the streets, the people climbed
over each other to get look at him. The
Duke of Buckingham wore suit at the
court of ST. James which cost $4,000
The dress of the mobiles during the middle
ages was literally covered with gold and
precious stones. San Francisco Chronicle

GLOW Shall We Esca pen"

The Scriptures may be dangerous
weapon to put into the hands of those who
peryert their meaning, either Intentional
ly or through want Of understanding. Ev.
cry one has heard how Lorenzo Dow, hay
ing resolved to preach sermon against
women's tall bonnets, took for his text the
words "Topknot, come down." which he
had ingeniously perverted from the lines,
LET him which is Oh the housetop not
come down."
Less artful than this, but quite as
amusing, was the unconscious error made
by young student Of theology at Wilbrn-
ham seminary, whose case was recently
related by an old divine. The student
went out one Saturday to preach his trial
sermon When he returned Monday the
venerable DR.. X said to him:
"Well, how did you got along?"
ooh, very well, thought"

Tsnnyson Disliked Venice.

The Tennysons, after their marriage,
settled at Twickenham, and among the
earliest of the poets friends who met his
wife was Speeding, who was charmed with
her. The same year Carlyle met Tenny-
son and his bride ct Trent Lodge in Cum
berland. Soon afterward the newly mar
ried pair were in Italy, and of this jour
ney one amusing story is told. Lord John
Russell gave a large reception, at which
the Tennysons were present, and during
the evening the prime minister asked the
poet how he had enjoyed his visit to
Venice AS Tennyson did not appear
communicative his host pressed him
further, when be confessed that he had not
liked Venice. "And why not pray, Mr..
TennysonP" II couldn't get any English
tobacco there for love or money" was tho
poets reply.
The dowager Lady Tepnyson, 1t Ia well
known, always manifested the keenest in
forest in the poets works and set some Of
the words to music. On the occasion of
the poets birthday, year before his death,
several Of these songs were given at con-
cert heid in celebration Of the event at
Freshwater -Westminster Gazette.
