BOYS and Girls, Favorite Dogs.

OF all the different kinds of dogs, what
is your favOrite9
A vote was recently taken among over
1000 boys and girls of Houston as to their
favorite dog. 1t is hardly surprising that
407 of the total number declared in favor
of the gentle, knowing beautiful shepherd
dog or collie. If you have among your
friends shaggy shepherd dog, you are for
tunate indeed. The Newfoundland, big,
black and brave, came next, with $40
votes, and then the ST. Bernard, with 10
votes. This shows that the young folk of
Texas have decided preference for large
dogs. The fourth in favor was the rat
terrier, with 90 votes; then the English
mastiff, with % votes; the bulldog, with z
votes; the common hound, with votes;
the Scotch terrier, with votes; the point
or, with votes; the common spaniel, the
water spaniel and the pug, with votes
each, and the setter, bloodhound, bull ter
rier and greyhound 1 vote each.

Death of Mrs. Royal Daniel.

Died, at her home on Canyon
creek, April 2, 1897, Mrs. Irene
Daniel, wife of Royal P. Daniel, a
native of Clay county, Mo-, aged AZ
years. Mr.. and Mrs. Daniel were
married in Missouri in 1878, and
that summer came to Idaho, since
which time they have resided in
this section. Mrs, Daniel leaves a
kind and loving husband and two
devoted children whose grief at hel
death is indescribable, besides @
large number of relatives and
friends in this vicinity to mourn hel
absence. She was a lady noted fol
her great goodness of heart and
many other virtues and her loss
particularly to her husband and
children, is irreparable.
The funeral took place Saturday
afternoon at Marion Daniels ranch,
where her remains were inferred in
the family burying ground-Rev.

ices. Considering the condition OF
the roads and the inclement weather
the funeral was largely attended by
friends from Mountain Home and
the surrounding country.

A New Bark.

w. X. Sebree, cashier of the First
National Bank of Caldwell, visited
this place Saturday and we are
much pleased to announce that he
has fully decided to open a general
banking business in Mountain Home.
This bank will be owned largely by
the First National Bank of Cald-
well, an institution that has been
successfully conducted at that place
for the past ten years, and will be
managed by Geo. w. Fletcher Sr.,
whose name alone in this section
should give stability to the new en-
terprise. 1t will probably be To-
Gated in Reynolds & Shaw's block,
at the corner Of Atlanta avenue and
Canyon street. This will doubtless
be gratifying news to all our bust
ness people, who appreciate the adj
vantages and conveniences of an I'M
doubtedly solid and safe concern
such as the one proposed is, and will
be in operation on or before the first
dav of May and should receive earn
est encouragement from all who
have the welfare of Mountain Home
at heart.
