The Right Track.

Cooperation is constantly coming
more and more into evidence among the
retail grocers Of this country. A number
of prominent grocers Of Chicago have
organized and incorporated what will be
known as the Chicago Crocers' exchange.
The members Of the exchange are in
business on the west side and have or
ganized for the purpose Of pooling their
purchases in order to buy on an equality
with the department stores and price
cutters. Herein lies hint which may
be Of value to retailers generally in 40
luton Of the department store evil. The
chief object Of the exchange is the pur-
chase Of goods in large quantities for the
saving affected thereby. Leading staple
articles will be bought In car lots and
distributed among the member Of the
exchange at prices lower than indt'
viduals can buy Even the same quaint
ties. This is essentialiy au age Of coop.
esation and d business concentration.

IDAHO'S NEW STATE PRISON
OF Stone and Iron Nearly Completed Rooms
For 400 Prisoners,

When the plans as designed by ,Archi-
tect Tourtelotte are fully carried out
Idaho will have one of the best cell
buildings in the United States. When it
is considered that the expense for labor
will be largely saved through the work
of the convicts, and that the material is
secured entirely in the stone quarry
within the penitentiary grounds, the
wisdom of the authorities in making
these Improvements is evident. The cell
room in the small buildings now in use is
all utilized and there is already a need
for more ard better accommodations.
The new cell house will be sufficient TO
furnish room for about 400 prisoners, or
at least three times the number now con-
fined in the penitentiary.
Those who have viewed the building
during its construction have generally
admired its plan and arrangement aud
are impressed with its big size, 4oxIS2
feet in the clear The foundation con-
sists of large stones, ~, feet wide by
from to 6 feet long and 3 feet thick,
with rubble stone upon the footing 81
feet wide and feet high. This is brought
little above the surface Of the ground
and the walls are here commenced, con-
lsisting of good and solid dressed stone
and built az feet thick, with windows
and doors at proper places, with steel
CRATES on all the windows. The walls
when completed will be 80 feet high
above the surface, and they are now CON-
pleted up to about 80 feet.
| There is yet much work to be done in
building the inside walls, which will be
| of brick and stone, but much of this work
will wait until it is decided which kind
of cell will be used.
One Of the most ornamental and useful
features of the new structure will be a
huge tower over 100 feet in height, from
which a commanding. view Of the whole
country will be gained. A prisoner in at
tempting to escape would be in full view
from this high altitude. and it is needless
to say that effective work could be done
with rifle in the unerring hands of a
lguard.-Boise News.

to note these evidences of business asso-
citation and cooperation among the retail

The only real contest was for city mar

SAN FRANCISCO, June IL. - General
Shafter and Colonel Maus. inspector-gen-
eral Of the department Of California, and
the federal grand jury are investigating
many reports of fraud committed in the
commissary branch Of the army service

Several thousand dollars worth of

THE WINDY CIRCUS MAN
Will Tomorrow Erect His City Of Snow White
Tents in Lewiston.


Tents in Lewiston.
The circus is old as time. and, like
wine, improves with old age. 1t found
soft place in the heart of the old man
who today totters along supported by
cane, and though scores of years separate
him from his youth, and many important
events, and names of his little school
mates have been forgotten; though there
is no picture ON memory's walls of his
first golden haired sweet heart, and even
the day upon which the wedding bells
sounded upon his ears is among the lost,
he will be able to tell all about the long
trip out along dusty road hours before
the golden sunburst became resplendent
in the eastern sky, when he went "out to
meet the circus"
Tomorrow some little boy will see his
first circus, and it will live in his men,
ory until death. Every circus that comes
will find him An interested spectator at
the unloading. The parade, with its
gaily caparisoned horses, its Internal old
caliope and superb brass band, aud rep
resentations from mythology will have
its same irresistible charm. He will 60
tomorrow with papa; some other time by
himself, then with his sweet heart, and
with wife. And at last will be seen on
the highest seat-a man with silvery
hair, and half score of grand children
about him who will drink red lemonade,
feed the animals peanuts, and live in a
veritable heaven on earth, just as grand
pa did years and years ago.
So the American circus can never lose
popularity. Each generation adds its
complement to its patrons. The same
old animals, the same spangled riders
vaulters, contortionists may be there
But the circus is ever new.
Tomo rrow there will be the same gen
tlemanly agents passing through the
audience with tickets to the concert, jus
Zone hour before the big show closes,
and it will take place on an elevated
platform, and the living wonders drawr
from every cline, and taken from every
water and will positively be seen. Then
too, the old clown will sing truly up
to-date song, and give the audience {
chance to secure a frst-class musica
education and collection of songs suf
icient to overstock heavens own choirs
ters. all for the small sum Of ten cents
The Jokes Of ancient Egypt revised anf
up-to-date will be thrown in.
1t makes but little difference what in
conveniences may arise, or how muci
people kick, declaring chats the las
circus for me-" they will be there just tn,
same, unless death intervenes, and en-
ljoy it all.
Without the circus life would be a loni
dreary waste. It costs hundreds of dol
lars to visit Africa where the lion lives
The circus gives Que chance to see lif

his last meal outside. prison walls at
the Northwest hotel, where he ate with
the sheriff and deputy, the cynosure
of many curious eyes. Barry is a
giant in size, over six feet tall, broad

a loose-ftting suit of blue, and his
manner was that of the man who has
undergone the nervous strain incident

tokeneds a keen realization Of his posi-

Barry was not shackled, and was a

Barry talks philosophically of his
