Water Power in California.

The wonderful results which Cali
fornia has accomplished in the trans
mission of electricity to distances
greater than anywhere else in the
world leads to an interest in its pecu-
liar type of water power possibilities
which in part make this great electri-
cal development possible. The secret
of the efficiency of California powers
lies in the excessive grades of the
mountain streams rather than in an
unusual volume of flow, the near
proximity of the high Sierras to the
populated valleys and their quick de-
scent, giving the streams unusual ad-
vantages in this regard.

he strenuously denied being the
party, and said he came from the
east to Weiser. A check for grip,
dated Baker City. June 2, was found
on his person, and the grip located
at the Huntington depot. A small
saw was also found on him. The
hat found had the name of the
maker, Atlanta, Georgia, on it,
which agreed with what he at first
stated, that he was from Georgia.
Hanson refused to 60 without extra

Senator Dubois Ancestors

The Washington Post prints the
following narrative:
Dubois county, in Indiana, is named
in honor of Captain fToussaint Dubois.
grandfather of Senator Dubois of
Idaho.
Toussaint Dubois was great
character in the early history of
Indiana. He immigrated from Lowe,
Canada. to the then Territory of
Indiana in the beginning of the last
century and, when, in 1911, General
William Henry Harrison went to war
against the Indians on the Upper
Wabash, Touissaint Dubois was
given the rank of captain and had
charge of the scouts and spies in the
TIppecanoe campaign. He guided
the army safely through the wilder
ness to the Indiana town, and then
went bravely ahead to talk peace to
Tecumseh's warriors. The Indians
tried to capture him, but Dubois
made his escape, afterward partici-
pating in the battle Of Tlppecanoe

considerably earlier than hay is usu-
