DO you know what a blue-blooded
youth is? He is a person who wears
only one eye glass because he is too
lazy to look through two: who car
ries a cane for which his only use is
to brush the ashes from his cigarettes;
who wears a collar so high that he
has to cut holes in it SO he can hear.
That is the young gentleman with the
indigo fluid"

1T was so hot where 1 was this
summer that the only cool thing about
the place was a picture of George
Washington crossing the Delaware.
The only way we kept from melting
was to lgo in the parlOr every
now and then and watch George Jug
gle the ice. We had to take turns
tanning the milk to keep it from
sonring before we could drink it. The
only way We could keep the butter
was to bottle it-otherwise it would
get away from u.s."
ga widow had three correspondents.
They were named Simmons, Spire and
Haps, and were partners in a firm.
1t caused her a lot of trouble. First,
she would get a letter signed by the
firm, per Spire.' Awfully embarras-
sing for a widow. Then she would
get a letter signed by the firm, per
Simmons Terribly provoking, you
know. And finally, she would get a
letter signed by the Arm, per Haps.
That was enough; for no widow can
stand the least doubt in a correspon-
dence with a gentleman"

The Citizens Of our Sister Town Ratifies

The citizens of Charleston gave vent to
their enthusiastic feelings last night over
the nomination of Mckinley and Roose-
welt by congregating Ell masse on the
Main street Of thatcity and i'll front Of
the Hotel Charleston, from the balcony Of
which some brilliant addresses were
made. The main feature of the evening
was the we'll delivered and able address
of the Hon. Miles S. Johnson of Lewis
ton, who held his listeners in rapt atten-
ton for nearly an hour, dispensing the
virtues of the republican party. Much
enthusiasm was evoked at the merest
mention of the names: Mckinley and
Roosevelt. Others who addressed the
assemblage were: r. Halsey, A. S. Bur-
nett, Prof. Steininger and John Hoag OF
Charleston, and d. T. WEIGH of Asotin.

OrofIno Train Wreck.

Yesterday afternoon the Oro6no train
bound for Lewiston was badly wrecked.
The mixed freight train consisted of four
carloads hogs belonging to Mr.. Stueber,
Of Uniontown, two box cars, three flats,
a steam shovel, tender, one passenger
coach and the express car. The train
was running at about the rate of sixteen
miles an hour, when at the twenty-five
mile post from Potlatch and two miles
east of Contact the train had just rounded
curve and was on tangent, when one
of the trucks under the heavy steam
shovel left the track. The engineer felt
the jar but the train ran nearly hundred
yards before he could see that there was
anything wrong. He first noticed the
ponderous steam shovel flying up in the
air and Immediately applied the air
brakes. The jumping over the ties of the
steam shovel had evidently broken the
king-bolts under the shovel and when
the air was applied the train parted, the
trucks pulling out from under the steam
shovel, which dropped to the ground.
The shovel proper became detached from
the crane when the first fat car struck
the shovel and was turned crosswise of
the track which in turn threw the
shovel into the river. Then commenced,
one of the most miraculous piling and
comglomerating Of railroad material ever
witnessed. Within IS feet there was ten
sets of car wheels, three fiat cars, and
one box car piled on top of one another.
The passenger car platform was showed
into the box car which stands on end at
an angle Of As degrees. The fiat car was
'.jackknifed," being entirely broken in
to and doubled up. Fortunately the
passenger car remained upon the track,
and is not materially damaged. A.
Gibson is in charge Of the construction.
Mr.. Proule, superintendent of fences and
track, Indian Agent Stranahan. E. f.
Harvey and about IS others were aboard
the train. There was but one lady pas
senger, Miss Snodgrass, of Juliaetta.
Outside of a severe shaking up, no one
was seriously hurt. The passengers all
agreed that Friday was not such an I'M
lucky day after all. The engine was run

F. H. Wheeler, who is confined to his
room, opposite the City Hall, caused
from the recent railroad accident, suffered
a severe relapse last night, which was
brought on by the booming Of the anvils
fred on the occasion Of the republican
rally last night. Drs. Morris and Brown
attended the invalid and discovered the
patient in faint caused by nervous ex-
element, and after 80 minutes of attend
ance on the patient he was brought out

A Miraculous Escape.

Yesterday while on his way to his
ranch near Kamiah, George w. Morri-
son, formerly of this city, jumped from a
moving train and broke the bone in his
right leg between thesknee and ankle.
When seen by reporter for the Teller at
his room in the Hotel De France, Mr..
Morrison said: II had just made ar
engagements with Supt. Gilbert of the N.
p. to make flag station on my home
stead, though the trainmen had not been
notified, and as we neared the point
where was to alight threw my bag
gage from the train and waited for the
engineer TO slow down, but as he did not
do SO, concluded to wait until we had
passed some bad places, and while stand
ing on the steps Of the car / noticed
ahead of me rock cut which /
knew would catch me il did not Jump
at once. I felt the bones in my leg
crack, and should have let go of the
railiug, / should have been swept under
the wheels of the moving train. / con-
slider myself, very fortunate that the re-
suits were no worse than they are, and /
am greatly indebted to the train crew for
their kindness and assistance in making
things comfortable for me. do not at
