is too great for anyone to take.

The Spokane q Kootenai survey
ors are again working in the vicin-
ity of Boomers Ferry, after spend
ing several weeks on the Movie
Yesterday they brought line
down to Boomers Ferry on the
north side from their Moyie base
to point where the ferry crosses.
At present they are working on the
line that was run around the hill
just above town, with view, per-
haps, of tieing the north side line
onto the former survey.
One thing is certain and that is
that the S. & K. people are making
very thorough investigation of
all possible routes and when their
engineers are through ought to
know which is the most feasible.
Evidently they intend to profit by
the experience of other roads so
that when the line is built it will
be properly located, and there will
be no expensive corrections to
make.

ENSIGN EPPs, THE COLOR BEARER.

Ensign Epps, at the battle of Flanders
Slowed seed of glory and duty
That flowers and flames in height and beauty
Like a crimson lily with heart Of gold,
Today, when the of Client old
And buried as deep their dead commanders.
Ensign Epp the color bearer
No matter which side, Philip earl;
Their the shel-his deed the pearl.
Scarce than lad he had been a sharer
That day in the widest work of the field,
He wounded and spent and the fight lost;
His comrades slain scattered host,
But stainless and scathless out of the strife
He had carried his colors safer than life
He faced the victors. The thick heartmist
He dashed from his eyes and the silk he kissed
Ere he held it aoft in the setting sum-
AS proudly if the fight won.
And he smiled when they ordered him to yield
Ensign Epps with his broken blade
Cut the silk from the gilded staff
Which he poised like spear till the charge made
And hurled at the leader with laugh,
Then round his breast. like the scarf of his love,
He tied the colors his heart above.
And plunged III lis into the tide,
Where the lessons your kinglings teach?
And what is the text of your proud commanders?
Out of the centuries heroes reach
With the scroll of deed with the word of a story
Of one mans truth and of all mems glory
Like Ensign Epps the battle of Flanders.
