Steamboat Service on the Clear

HEAVY KLONDIKE TRAVEL
Mining Has Taken New Impetus In
the Northwest-A Branch Line
for the o. R. e. N. From
Elgin, Oregon.

Pending the completion of its Clear
water extension next fall, the Northern
Pacific has decided to establish steam
boat service on the Clearwater river be-
tween Lewiston and Stuart, Idaho. The
latter point is rs miles above Lewiston
and within Is miles of Grangeville, on
direct line to the newly discovered
Buffalo Hump mining region. The new
steamer ]. H. Hannaford has been
placed in service on this river and it is
now making trips for the construction
department, carrying, at the same time.
miners and their supplies. The opera
ton of the steamer Hannaford on the
Clearwater river will make the trip be-
tween Lewiston and the Buffalo Hump
country comparatively easy one, in
asmuch as it does away with the long
stage ride from Lewiston. The Hanna
ford connects at Stuart with stage
coaches to Grangeville and the Hump
country.
I'VE hear little in this country nova
days about travel to the klondike," said
j. Francis, general passenger agent of
the Burlington, to an Omaha reporter,
after an extended trip to the North
west, but when you get into the North
west you find there is about as much In
terest in the Alaskan mining section as
ever. Prospectors are returning from
the north almost every day and the
stories they tell keep alive the desire in
a certain portion of the people to seek
their fortune in that country. The re-
suit is that travel from Portland, Seat
tie and Tacoma to Alaska is about as
heavy as it has ever been.
But the Klondike mines are not the
only ones which contribute to making
business lively in the North Pacific
coast towns. The mines just north of
Washington in British Columbia are at
tracing their share of the attention and
Seattle is deriving great benefit from
the rush to that territory. Over in
Idaho there are reports of rich new dis
coveries. and when the snow leaves the
mountains the prospects are that there
will be a big rush to these diggings.
All in all, mining is taking a new i'm
petus in the Northwest, and business
of all kinds is feeling the benefits of it."

1.-THE Art of Fiction" Nellie Hamlyr

I
| Fiction, the predominant branch of
imaginative literature, is one of the fine
| afis, aithough this fact is not admitted
| py the majority of people. During the
last oo years its growth has been re-
| markable. but this rapid growth can
not be wondered at, for every epoch
| chooses for itself a kind of literal ure.
one when suits the emotions of the
| people ana times. During the revoIu-
tionary period in FRANCE lyrical poetry
predominated. During the religious
disturbances in England religion was
| the chief theme of all literary works.
and now during our period of science
and democracy, fiction holds its SWAY.
First-cfass fiction is in every way
an art, one of the fine arts, worthy in
every sense of the word to be called
the equal and sister Of the arts of
painting. music, sculpture and poetry.
Her field is as boundless, her possibili-
ties as great and her excelencies a.,
worthy Of admiration as can be claimed
for any of her sister arts.
Fiction like any art, is governed Nv
certain laws These laws may be laid
down and taught with as much pre-
clslon and eXactness as the laws of har-
mony, perspective or proportion, hut.
like the other fine arts, fiction is far re-
r1CVed from the mere mechanical arts.
NO laws or rules can teach it to those
who are not already gifted with a keen
imagination and great power and in
genuity for invention and imitation
Fiction simply cannot be taught No
,iiaterials exist TOT student use No
pruSn can De procured with which a
novelist can paint his living pictures.
irst-ciass modern novel is one of
ine Sfand productions OF the art of fic-
tlon. Ihis truth is becoming palmer
and the people are becoming more ready
TO admit that fiction is fast approach
ing the highest rounds of the ladder,
and in so more years it is to be hoped
that fiction will be known only as an
art and the novelist known and praised
in all parts of the world as an artist.

THE TEST OF EDUCATION
An Interesting Essay by Mary
Stackpole.
AFUNDAMEN tai QUESTION
Some More Essays by Students OF the
High School and of the Training
School Read at Grad
uation.

Yesterday closed the second week of
the graduating exercises in the high
school. The several essays read were
splendid compositions and the large
audience interrupted the speakers with
frequent bursts of applause. The sub
jects and orators were:
Power of Education and idea Forces"
Mary StackpoIe.
There are two theories of education
which have been held by our most IA
nous educators. One is that it is the
sole end of man as an intellectual as
thetic and moral being; the other is
that the test Of education is it's prac
tcality in lifes business and toll. The
watchword of the one is culture, of the
other utility.
The fundamental question which pre-
sents itself to us in the discussion of
the power of education is What is
mans chief end in the present life?'
We would say, THE perfection of man
by means of education" The mind is
the supreme human fact and it's perfac-
ton is mans supreme personal duty.
Education unites man to nature, to
society and to God to nature that he
may discover her laws; to society that
he may eradicate her evils, improve her
condition and receive her protection: to
God that he may be sustained guided,
purified and saved.
The complete end of education is to fit
man for complete and successful living.
Natures motto is perfection of man."
not the mind only, but the man. An
education that prepares the mind to
think the truth, the heart to enjoy it,
the will to purpose it and the hand to
perform it.
Education makes a good man better
a powerful one more powerful, enables
one well equipped to acquire almost su-
perhuman power.
The day is at hand when not sin
gle trait of character. not certain in
tellectual qualifications will be accept
ed; the man will be scientifically an
alyzed as a complex being in whom
race family, environments and, above
all, education will be sought.
These are the intellectual giants who,
in the near future, will occupy lifes
highest and best positions and who will
exercise the controlling power in up
lifting man to the plane of perfection.

Stackpole the essay was read by Ida

The works of man. his civilization. his
hlgh position are products of the nina.
1t is not said that mind had no growth
before the present man--it must have
had, but the growth of matter was
greater and at the creation recorded
begins the aScendency of mind.
1t is claimed by some that there Is
no such thing as mind without matter:
that they are but different sides of the
same substance: every new perception.
every thought, every action of the mind
makes some impression on the matter
of the brain and therefore without mat
ter to act upon there can be no mind,
just as without the ear drum there can
be no sound.
Another class of philosophers be-
lieves that mind may exist without
matter, but there can be no manifesto
ton of it; every idea, original or per-
ceived, great or small, causes some
change in the molecular cells and every
variation of matter produces some
change of the mind hence the two are
so blended in one system that neither
can act without the action, direct or
Indirect of the other.
Another class of mental scientists
teaches that God is the vital principle
of life or love that fills the universe,
and that the whole visible universe is
but the recognition of the unseen prin-
ciple, as.light is simply the recognition
of heat. They believe as Pope,
"All nature is but art unknown to thee,
All chance direction that thou canst
not see,
All discord, harmony not understood
All partial evil, universal good.
And spite of pride, in erring reasons

THE BELL RINGERSs

The people in this city had the
pleasurer of Witnessing a strictly first
class entertainment at the opera house
Thursday evening, when the Royce
Swiss Bell Ringers put on their prog
ram of specialties and bell ringing.
The show is highly entertaining from
start to finish, and the most reserved
and sedate were heard to shout with
laughter during the comical sketches
and specialties introduced by Miss
McVickers and Mr.. Royce. Every
number was heartily encored, evidenc-
ing the entire satisfaction the show
gave, Mr.. Royce is excelling in his
impersonations of various great men
and brought down the house with his
funny Swede sketch, entitled cole
Olson in Spiritland. Every seat in
the opera house was filled, and every
body was pleased. Their show is far
