No Oil There.

The reports that have been pub
blished to the effect that oil had
been discovered in the Willow
creek district are erroneous. j. S.
Dedman made trip into that section
last week, returning Saturday, where
he went to investigate the matter, as
it was reported that the oil had been
struck on the property belonging to
his daughter, Mrs. r. Wackhagen.
He stated TO a Signal reporter yes
terday that there was absolutely
nothing in the report. In fact his
daughter knew nothing Of 1t until he
so advised her, Mr. Dedman states
that when the well that was bored,
reached depth of 300 feet the water
presented an oily appearance but as
the depth increased, only an excel
lent flow of water was had. The
stream flowing from this well now
fills 4-inch pipe Mr.. Dedmar
also stated that as a result of these
reports all the available lands fol-
miles around in that section has beer
taken up.

FELLOW SUNDAY WORKERS OF

FELLOW SUNDAY WORKERS OF
lDAHo:-
Ina few short weeks we are to
meet in our annual convention at
Lewiston to review the closing year
and plan for the future. Remember
the place and date; Lewiston, June
21, %, and 23,
AS we look back upon the closing
year we are glad to note many signs
of progress, notably along the line
of organization and of earnest and
efficient work in the individual
schools over the state.
Since our State Executive Com
mittee have arranged place and time
for the State Convention we have re-
ceived the glad, good news that Mr..
Charles d. Meigs, one of the edi-
torial staff of the International Sun
day School Evangel, is to make a
tour of the Northwest. On learning
that Mr.. Meigs is to give three days
of his time to the Sunday School
work in Idaho and under the dates
of May Z, s and 9, we at once en-
deavored to arrange the time of our
State Convention so as to have the
valuable assistance of Mr.. Meigs,
but we found railroad connections
such and the distance so great to
Lewiston that it would be impossible
for him to reach Lewiston and give
any time to the convention. We
have therefore arranged for two
conventions in Southern Idaho. A
district convention will be held il
Idaho Falls May 6 and Z, and al
the workers Of that district have
joined heartily in the work Of this
convention and we are now assured
that it will be as great success ant
as largely attended as our State Con
vention of 1900 In South western
Idaho the Ada County Association
have called their convention to NEE
at Boise May and 9, and the Ad
County Association extends a cor
: dial invitation to the Sunday Schoo
workers over all South. western ldah
to attend this convention Brotbe
G. D. Meigs will be present at eac
of these conventions. Now, dea
friends, Mr. Meigs is royal, goo
man, and | know he is one of th
Lords choicest spirits; and he is
i. blessing wherever he goes. He
full of good ideas and puts them

The Inventor of the FIGURING Mill

About the year 20 B. G. Mithridates

ingenious and able princes of the time,
invented the first mill driven by water
This triumph of his skill and ingenuity
he caused to be erected in the imme-
date vicinity of the royal palace. In
the course of time the Cappadocian
bakers became celebrated and were in
great demand throughout all parts OF

the water, and the millers We're thus

For there was no doubt that he was

GObeIin Tapestry.

SO important are their artistic merit
and historic value that no history of
tapestry is complete that does not in
clude description of their design and
execution. For more than POO years
the existence of the papal manufac-
tory of tapestries was unknown to the
modern world. Documents relating to
it's origin and productions were buried
and forgotten in the mass Of manu-
script in the famous Barberini library
until very recent date. when they
were unearthed by Eugene Muntz di-
rector Of the National Ecole des Beaux
Arts at Paris. In the popular mind
all tapestries are associated with the
Gobelin factories of France.
Curious to relate. not yard of tap
estry was ever woven by member of
the Gobelin family. Immortality came
to them from the fact that in the mid
die OF the fifteenth century the founder
OF the family established dyehouse
which became famous and brought
the proprietors fortune. Descendants
shrewdly transported skilled tapestry
weavers from Flanders. whose work
they directed and marketed until tap.
estry and Gobelin became then, as now.
synonymous throughout the world

Sleep and Dreams.

\ German physician says: THE fact
is women require a larger amount of
sleep than men. The nervous eXcita-
bility of the female constitution is gen
orally greater than is the case with the
stronger sex, and woman's sleep is
consequently lighter. Her dreams are
more vivid and leave a more lasting
impression on the memory Women
addicted to dreaming usually sleep an
hour longer than those who do not
dream. for dreams induce WEAKNESS.
Any one who sleeps without dreaming
rises on the morrow refreshed from his
couch, which is otherwise not the
case"
