IDAHO LAWMAKERS IN REVOLT
SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE
THOUGHT HE WAS IT.
Supreme Court Asked For Writ
Members Denounced Presiding
Officer and Demanded Removal.
fsnecial to The Herai.iN


Boise, Ida, Feb. 25.-The house was
in an unprecedented furore all after
noon and the disturbances came near
resulting in a free-for-all fight. After
five-hour deadlock over the bill to
buy the Ketchum-Challis toll-road,
which was forced upon reconsideration
in order to side-track the general ap-
preparation bill, Speaker Evans at
tempted to force matters by az series
of rulings that were denounced on the
floor. The rulings became so unbear-
able to the friends of the bill that Aver
lit, the leader of the majority on the
floor, went into the supreme court for
a writ. When the speaker learned of
this he at once reversed his rulings and
after a series of rows the bill was
passed
At one time the speaker refused to
put an appeal There was an uprOar
at once, and amid the yelling of mem
bers and the vicious hammering of the
speaker on his desk, Reynolds demand
ed that the speaker be deposed.
Averitt denounced the speaker in IN
measured terms and challenged him to
show a word of authority TO support
his rulings.
Hulse jumped to his feet and at
tempted to put a motion that the
speaker had refused to entertain and
members surged about in a manner
that came near precipitating a scene
of violence.
Put the motion" yelled d member
frantically to Hulse, but he took his
seat.
After Speaker Evans had reversed his
rulings the house quoted down. The
deadlock was broken and the majority
put the bill through.

by a freight train trying to get on a side

outfit car on which the fish were.
The remaining one is almost as intelli-
gent as cat or dog. When Mr. Corbin

goes to the barrel and whistles, and uD
comes the catfish with a bound. 1t will

another piece or is called by the whistle.
II enjoys tickling under the chin al
most as much as 16-year-old maiden.
and nothing pleaseS ii more than to have
its teelers pulled 1t also enjoys being
gently squeezed.
When Mr.. Corbin leaves his hand in the
water the fish will stroke it gently with
its fms and turn over on its beck, the
meantime emitting bubbles much after
the manner in which a cat would purr.
In transferring il from one barrel to an
other IL Will lie perfectly still. as If IL

Richest Beggar On Earth.

The richest beggar in the world lives
in Russia. He was born without feet
or arms, and his physical defects have
brought him great sympathy and much
cash. sympathy would be better be-
slowed if il We're given to the army of
industrious men in this country who
overwork themselves and break down
their health. These men lose their ap-
petites, and their stomachs Ego back
ON them" Their nerves are shattered.
and they cannot sleep. The quickest
way for these men to recover their
health is to take Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, which is intended particularly
for those who suffer from any of the
complaints mentioned. This remedy IS
so well known that it is recognized as
one of the worlds standard medicines.

A FINN SERVANT.
How She Was Discharged Many
Times and Never Understood.


Young Mrs Mcbride had had so much
trouble with impudent servants that she
was on the verge of nervous prOstration.
and she would certainly have gone over
the verge had the Mcbride income been
large enough. She finally became des-
perate, says Harper's Bazaar.
John, she said, one day, i have hired
a new servant She isn't particularly
competent. but of one thing / am GER
tain-she will not be impudent."
She won'tp' cried her astOniShed hus-
band How do you know she wont2'
II am sure she won't" replied Mrs. Nc
Bride; and even if she is. l shall not
know it. She's q Finn, just over, and
she doesn't speak but four words of Eng
lish."
All the next day Mrs. Mcbride strug-
gled with the Finn. She talked herself
hoarse. She would fairly shout her d.
rectiOns. but shouts and whispers were
alike 10 the Finn. She simply could not
understand When Mr.. Mcbride came
home at night, his wife was again on the
verge.
Why do you shout so when you talk
to herr" he asked, laughing heartily.
Why? Why, l simply can't make her
heart cried his wife. Il am so hOarse
1 can hardly speak aloud. and I am COM
pletely worn out. What shall do, dear?''
Let me discharge her. of course
Discharge herr echoed his wife.
That's just about as sensible as the
average mans suggestion. Discharge heri
