Last Meeting Xxx Century Club.
The last meeting of the Xxx Cen
fury club was held at Mrs. J. Humis-
ton's Monday afternoon and was quite
a social affair. Mrs. Trip, the lead
or, had planned quite an original pro-
gram that proved a great success.
This consisted of character sketches,
each club, member representing some
English woman of note by telling her
life's history and then giving the club
an opportunity TO guess the name.
! Characters represented were, Har-
riet Martineau, Queen Alexandra,
Florence Nightingale, Dowager. EN-
press of Germany, Elizabeth Frye,
Jean Jugelow and Felicia Hemans.
Mrs. Anderson read an admirable
paper on the English people which
ended the program. The invited
guests present were Mesdames Dolan,
r. Humiston,F. Humiston, Schechter
and Messer, the Misses Smith and
Thompson. Club members present
Mesdames sibley, Trip, Curran, }.
Humiston, Moore, Albertus, Porter,
Clarke and Doclittle. Mrs. .Humiston.
the. hostess, served 9 very dainty COL
lation after the program.

Going to Europe.

Representative McCleary has de-
parted from Washington for Man
kato. Instead of paying a visit to
Philippines this summer he intends
going to Europe, where he will make
a study of social questions and the
question of government ownership OF
public utilities, especially of railroads.
It is his opinion that this question
will come to be one of special interest
or account of the consolidation of
raj way interests. He desires to in
vestigate the workings of the public
ownership OF railroads in countries
where it has been tried.-Mankato

the hall he prowled about in the kitch
en- and struck matches, fOolishly eX-
posing himself. Presently he rejOined
the party with a look of blank amaze
ment on his face, and the entire party
went into the front basement room.
Just then the voices were heard up
stairs, and Wilson, grasping his stick,
rushed up as if to take the marauders
by storm. The Bruce family heard him
pass from room to room, apparently
following the voices. Finally he came
back to them. I've been in every nook
and corner Of the house" he said, and
1 can't find any burglar"
Next morning when Wilson came
downstairs he found Bob waiting for
him in the hall. Bob took him by the
arm and, pointing to the door of the
breakfast room, said: Go in there and
talk to Polly. She's in a pretty good
mood this morning, and 1 kinder guess
she's waiting for you
An hour later when Bob took their
guest down to the depot he asked him
what luck he'd had with Polly, and
Wilson rather evaded the question, but
allowed that he had great hopes and
that he was very happy.

Bob looked at her and laughed and
took her and Polly down to the base

SHORT LINES BRANCH
PUSHED TO HOUSTON
FOrty-twO Miles of the Track
Now Finished.
NEARING LOST RIVER
MUCH ARID LAND TO BE RE
CLAIMED.

Forty-two miles of track had been
laid Saturday night on the Houston
branch of the Oregon Short Line, ac-
cording to Z. o. Watts OF the Utah
Construction company. This takes the
iron almost to the first crossing Of Lost
river.
The grading is practically all COM
pleted, the exceptions being a few
pieces near the west end. where there is
some difficulty over rights of way.
This new road viii open up one of the
richest farming regions of all Idaho,
that of Lost River valley. The land
lacks only water to make it one OF the
most fertile tracts anywhere, and a
canal is being taken out from the lower
end of Lost river narrows and con-
Quoted along the foothills so as to
water a great tract of country. Lost
. river is very uncertain stream in its
flow. owing to the lava country through
which il runs. Sometimes there viii
be big flow at a certain point until
suddenly an outlet some place above is
found into one of the great lava assures
in which the country abOunds, and the
stream becomes dry while this great
subterranean passage is being flied,
when the flow may come on again as
suddenly as it ceased.
The taking of the water by the foot
hills viii keep it from wasting in this
manner, and Will greatly increase the
irrigating power Of the stream. The
Oregon Short Line viii drive few
artesian wells at intervals along its
line, and the great Lost river desert
viii soon be a desert only in the mem
