The question of entertaining a com
pany OF friends is a matter easily dis
posed of by the average woman-they
are born entertainers and can throw a
conversational halo about thirty cents
worth of refreshments that makes the
man who may chance to be among the
guests, think he has been especially
favored-which, of course, he has. But
it's a serious problem when a man
tackles the proposition. He isn't con-
tent with a little party. but insists on
having a big spread with all the stage
settings and frills thrown in, and us
ually carries the event off successfully.

Sheriff Davis returned from Missoula
Friday morning after Il fruitless trim
after the supposed incendiary who fir
ed the Occidental hotel on the night of
July 8. Mr.. Davis was called by a
telegraph message from the officials
there, stating that one of the parties
implicated had confessed to the crime.
On his arrival in Missoula he found
that Joseph Fox and Ray Telly, two
young trarnps in Jail for robbing a
Chinaman, were the suspected parties.
Fox claimed that he and Telly were in
Forsyth last July, that Telly had set
fire to the hotel out of a spirit of re-
venge for having been refused food and
shelter. On investigation and after
consultation with the Missoula officers,
Sheriff Davis concluded that there was
nothing i'll Fox's story and that he told
it out of malice toward his companion.
Telly is a lad of sixteen and comes
from Oklahoma. His father arrived
from Oklahoma about the same time
as Sheriff Davis and took the boy back
home with him.

FIND WATER IN THE DESERT.

Plentiful Flow IL Struck in Mojave
Desert by ProspectOrs.
The Mojave desert, located in the
southeastern portion Of the state, has
long been regarded as dangerous to
life and valueless for any purpose,
says the San Francisco Argonaut.
True. it was known that the arid land
could be rendered fruitful by means
Of irrigation, but there was no water
there and none could be obtained
without heavy expenditure. The
only plan proposed that promised re-
lief was the construction Of immense
reservoirs in the mountains to retain
the storm water for a long distance
during the summer. This meant a
heavy initial outlay and neither the
state government nor the federal gov
eminent has as yet expressed a will
ingness to incur it. Life ON the desert
when not positively dangerous. is
crowded with hardships, but hardships
have no deterrent effect upon the
searchers for gold, and lately the waste
places of the desert have been invaded
by an army of prospectOrs for oil. The
theory upon which they proceeded was
that the Kern river oil belt extends
through the Mojave desert. Whether
or not there is any virtue in this
theory, the facts SO far developed have
not justified it. No oil has been found.
but water in considerable quantities
has been struck and at the present
time this is more valuable than the
oil would have been. Artesian water.
if sufficient quantity can be found.
is much better than the retained and
ditched storm water would have been.
since there is less expense for hand
ling and less loss from evaporation
Three wells have been developed al
ready. The third struck the water at
depth of 1885 feet, which is much
more shallow than would be required
for an oil WELL All Of them are said
to be ''gushers," and the latest flows
215 miners inches. If the water belt
should prove to be permanent and ex-
tensive a rush to this region and
something very like land boom may
be looked for

All of which is predatory to a little
entertainments supper party, that
was given last Sunday evening by DR..
Klein ct al. to a select party of friends,
Inc supper was the result of a chal-
LANCE. SO it is said, to the effect that
men did not know how to entertain.
The Herr Docktor took up the challenge
and promised Il supper that should be
wholly the work of himself and corps
OF assistant chefs selected among his
friends. The supper took place at the
home of Mrs. Kane on the south side
ana there were seats for sixteen guests.
Rumor says it was a great success.
ana rumor is a mercless critic usual
ly, so 1t probably was. There were
soups and salads, cakes and ices, and
all the the concomitants of a swell
spread, served in courses and fault
lessly arranged. 1t is also said that
Jas. Grierson came in for a share of
the culinary glory. but this is not Of
fetal. The Herr Docktor was chef
and served the dishes in person. The

Loading Cannon with Corn,

Congressman Joe" Cannon, of ILL
nois, is man of strong likes and dis
likes, and never does anything by
halves. In the list of his likings so
far as culinary matters are concerned,
his fOndness for green corn takes first
rank, and on this score he tells a good
story at his own expense. After a
long sOjOurn in Washington he re-
turned home and started out to look
after his political fences in his dis
trict. At small village hotel, where
he stopped for dinner, a scanty plate
of fine roasting ears was placed before
him as a side dish. Immediately he
abandoned the main bill-of-fare and
applied himself exclusively to the
green corn. When the plate was de-
pleted he called for more roasting ears,
and continued his feast until he had
made his entire meal from the staple
product of the Illinois prairies. The
hotel-keeper noticed the array of cobs
stacked upon the plate of the tall poll
tician. whose identity was unknown to
him, and said: Say. stranger, what
in thunder do you want to board at a
hotel for? The place for you to put up
at Is livery stable. Don't you know
green fodder is dunn sight cheaper in
a barn than in house?" During the
remainder Of the campaign Congress
man Cannon retailed this story to his
cOnstituents-and turned it to good
account among the corn grOWerS.-Sat-
urday Evening Post

DROUGHT IN OHIO VALLEY.
The Great Corn States East of the Mississippi
Are Suffering.
by Associated press.l


Washington, July 30.-The Weather Blu
reau's weekly summary of crop conditions
is as follows:
intense heat prevailed during the
greater part of the week throughout
the central valleys, but the temperatures
during the last three days were more
moderate. Good rains have fallen over
large part of the drought area in the
Mississippi and Missouri Valleys, but
drought conditions have become more Sc
rious in the Ohio Valley and Tennessee
where the week has been rainless, ex-
cept in a few localities. In the Atlantic
coast districts the weather conditions have
been generally favorable except over por-
tons Of the Carolinas and Virginia, where
rain is now needed. The conditions were
also favorable on the Pacific.
Recent rains have improved late corn
in portions of Nebraska, Kansas Okla
homa and Missouri, but the early crop
and the rainfall has been copious and well
distributed. In the great corn States east
| of the Mississippi River, except over
northern Illinois, drought and excessive
heat have continued with disastrous effect
| upon corn, which is now in critlcal con-
dition. In Michigan and generally through
out the middle Atlantic States and New
England the corn crop is in fine condi-
ton.
Harvesting of spring wheat is well
advanced over the Southern portion of
the spring wheat region, and has begun
in the Southern Red River Valley Pre-
mature ripening has reduced the yield
and quality of the crop over the south
ern portion of the spring wheat belt
THE condition of cotton over the great
er part of the cotton belt is improved,
good growth and clean fields being gener-
ally reported In Missouri, Arkansas,
Tennessee and Central Texas, however,
the crop continues to need rain, and
shedding and blooming at top in these
States are extensively reported.
I'm the Ohio Valley and Tennessee,
tobacco continues to suffer from drought
but in Kentucky and Tennessee has with
stood the unfavorable conditions we'll.
In New England and the Middle South
Atlantic States the crop has made good
growth. Cutting and curing continue in
the Carolinas under favorable conditions.
