HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
BY "KUzzoNs."

No "mamas pets" allowed In the
High School. Mamas, take your pets
home.
Pansy is Il kind and generous girl OF
how would Ray get his algebra prob
lens?
Arthur doesn't like TO sit on the
floor, but he can't help IL when Joe
pulls the chair away.
Phil takes private lessons in calls
themes from Mr.. Register. Well
maybe Phil is one Of mama spets."
DPoor Frank of the Senior class can't
help but blush blush az crimson as
his hair when the girls tease him So
We still have babies in the High
School who bring their toys to school,
Be gentlemen and ladies and not
babies.
From the number that have to re-
main in after school the prospects for
good department grade next month
are starting out slim.
Monday morning our first snow ap-
peared and the usual SNOWFALL warn
ings were given. Girls, he didn't say
anything about face-washing.
Wonder what Miss Ellis, with her
little note book In hand, was inspect
ing the desks for? There Is no doubt
but that we will find out real soon.
Emma says she is not ''mama's
pet," but that there are more people
that have pets than mamas, and she
knows some one that has special
pet, too.
Does Joe forget to take of his cap
when he comes into the room, or does
he want his teacher to tell him to take
it off? Look better, Joe, II you'd take
it of without being told.
One of the largest boys of the High
SchOofhas been tardy twice in one
week. Mr.. Register says, "Have
enough pride about you to get to
school on time" and we think so, too.
Friday aflernoon the Literati So
ciety will render program and We
will be pleased to see our friends pres
emit. This society is noted for it's eX-
cellent programs-as well as the Clio
Moons.
We were all pleased with our grades
this month excepting our department.
grades, and from the looks of them
surely Mr.. Register means what he
says, it's ten off every time you are
caught.
Gerald says he can't help but talk
when he explains propositions to the
girls. 1t is hard-taSk, Gerald. and
Bess doesn't approve of it, but your
propositions are all fair ones in her
estimation.
Last Friday morning fine elect
ure" was given by Mr.. Register about
school work and workers, etc, which
was listened to by an attentive aud
fence of high school pupils, and Miss
Ellis responded with solemnized
amen"
Last Friday the Clioneons rendered
a good program. Though some that
were on the program did not respond
when called upon, yet we had the
pleasure Of hearing them Monday
morning. How much better is it to
be prepared.
The lecture given by DR.. Hughes
Monday evening was attended by
quite a number Of High School pupils
yet more would have attended had it
not been such a disagreeable evening.
We are sorry we did not get to at
tend as the lecture is said to have
been fine.
Someone is always giving Mr.. Roy
ster the mitten, at least he often has
one without tine owner and some girls
are always losing their mittens as
well as their hearts. Ever found your
heart yet, Emma? We know who has
it, but we are afraid it won't be as
easily found as it was lost.

Last Saturday we saw train of
wagons, passing through our village,
loaded with machinery and upon In
vestlgation it proved to be going to
Chanute to prospect for oil and pas.
The query is this, why will they pass
over ground underneath of which lies
as good a quality and quantity of
either gas or oil as there is In the
state. While the people Of carlton
and vicinity rejoice at the success
with which Chanute has been re-
warded we would like to see some
prospecting done in our community
and feel that they would meet with as
good success as they have in Chanute.

An amusing incident occurred
on Commercial street Friday, after
noon. McEwen, the hypnotist,
had placed person in a cataleptic
state in the window of Peterson &
Brown, and crowd had gathered
near the store. One of the men in
the crowd freely remarked that
McEwen was a fake" and that
the person in the window was not
in cataleptic state, but that he
also was taking" McEwen hap
pened along, and unknown to the
man who was roasting him, listened
to his abuse for a few minutes.
Then, walking up to the man, he
introduced himself, snapped his
fiugers III the PERSONS face and
informed him that he had lost his
voice and could not speak. The
man was DUMP as an oyster, out be
ceased his roast when McEwei
brought him back to his norma
condition. Doubtless he will no
soon again roast hypn otists a

Doc Wakefield was Monday
visitor at this office. He has Deen
kept pretty close to his home for
several weeks by sickness, but,
being better, came down to attend
TO business here. Mr.. Wakefield
is one of our enthusiastic irult
growers and stock raisers and IS
ever working to advance the inter
ests of these industries. Ee is now
working to have our legislature
pass a law making 1t obligatory
upon shippers to correctly label all
fruit especially as tc the locality
where raised. Labelling our fruit
in Eastern markets as California
fruit has not only resulted in the
discouragement of our fruit growers
because there was brt little marker
for their fruit, in past years, but Il
has been the means Of keeping
from this state emigration whicf
comes west to find fruit growing
climate, and pouring it into th'
state of California. Thousands o
good homes are not in Oregon toda,
because of this deception of Easter
people and it is high time it wa
stopped. 1t is to De hoped tha
Doc will succeed in securing tn
passage of such law.

Some Federal Positions.

"The state of Idaho is entitled to eight
clerkslips in the census bureau, says
Washington dispatch. -Four of these are
to be named by Senator Shoup. two by
Senator Heitfeld and two by Represent
alive Wilson. Senator Shoup has been
urging the director of the census to make
an allowance for travelling expenses and
clerk hire for the supervisor of the census
in the state of Idaho. The great dis
tances render the necessary travelling
which the supervisor will have to do very
expensive and will make his salary very
unremunerative, while the immense
number of letters which he is constantly
receiving in regard to appointments and
instructions to his euumerators would
seem to render a clerk almost indispen-
sable"

LATAH PROSPERITY.
Reflected in a Recent Sale OF
School Land.

Chief Clerk Arney of the state land
department says the sale of state land
held at Moscow Dec. p was the liveliest
he ever attended. Five hundred farmers
were in the crowd of bidders and such
interest was taken i'll the sale that the
district court adjourned while it was in
progress, The terms of the sale were 80
per cent down and the balance in 10
wears at 6 per cent. All the farmers had
money aud the payments were made
promptly. -,
The appraised value of the land sold
was SI5,92I. The amount for which the
land went at the auction was $4,000,
nearly $1,000 over the appraised value a
circumstance that reflects the prosperous
condition of Latah county. The amount
maid down as the result of the sale was
ss6o1, leaving balance of $4,000 that
will draw 6 per cent interest for 10 years
Mr.. Arney also sold some improvements
on land that had been leased, the state
realizing $22I6 therefrom.
The land sold was GOO acres out some
distance from Moscow and $50 acres in
Io-acre tracts near that city. The Coz
acres was appraised at 10000, or sI5.Ie
an acre. 1t sold for 1885, or SIS 90 al
acre. The 600 acres Of Io-acre tracts wa
appraised at 1891, or also an acre. i
sold for SO oo3, or trife over $50 al

can American Mother" will conceal
the identity of one of the most prominent
women of the day i'll the authorship of a
series Of singularly frank articles about
to begin i'll the Ladies Home Journal.
The articles will deal with the vital
questions entering into modern American
womanhood, and the directness of their
character is III way revealed in the title
of the first article, "Have Women Robbed
Men Of their Religion ?" which the
writer boldly answers i'll the affirmative.
The series will then go on and deal with
the exact conditions prevailing in girls
colleges, revealing an unusually keen
insight, and drawing some emphatic
deductions which will awaken unusua
interest.
