Easter Services.

The Easter services held by Rev.
I. 7. Osborn at the Episco pal
church last Sunday were conducted
in very impressive and dignifed
manner; and that they we're
thoroughly appreciated was evil
denced by the large congregation
which attended both the morning
ami evening services. The singing
by the surpliced choir was very
pleasing, particularly, the solo by
little Hannah Davies, which was
rendered as an offertory at both
services. At. the close of the morn
ing service the rite of baptism was
administered to two children, Cora
Agnes Hartdegen and Elizabeth
Irene Starrh.
1t is with deepest regret we learn
that Mr.. Osborn will be unable to
hold services here in the future.
His work has been highly appreci-
ated both by the church members
and the public at large.

BAND CONCERT
The Band Boys Did As Well as Could !
Be Expected.


As per announcement thaes sho-
shone band made it's first appear
ance in public last Saturday even
ing, giving an open air concert on
the streets. The boys under the
leadership of Joe Montgomery have
progressed nicely and did much
better than was expected of them
in the short time they have pra-
cticed- They played several Sc
lections near the McFall hotel, the
Columbia hotel and on the corner
near the Stockgrowers, all of which
were highly appreciated by those
who had the good fortune to hear
them. 1t is evident that the boys
have worked hard in practicing
and considering the old instru-
ments which many of them are
using did better than many players
with more experience might have
done. Now that the band boys
have done so well and without the
aid or solicitation of the business
men we think it time for them to
take hold and give the boys little
financial assistance so that they
may be able to purchase new in
struments. Many of the promi-
nent business men have promised ,
to assist the band boys and now
that they have done so we'll, and
all through their own efforts it
would be nothing more than right
that they should receive some well
deserved support to enable them
TO give Shoshone one of the best
bands in the state. Keep up the
good work boys and you will find
that it will be appreciated in sub
stantial way.

A Summer Resort.

The Twin Falls Land & Water
Company through its Manager M.
B. DeLong has leased the Sho-
shone Falls hotel.
Thic will be made an unTivaled
pleasure resort, located about
twenty three miles from Shoshone
y from which point it viii be access
ible by stages connecting with the
Oregon Short Line railroad. The
fame of this place as pleasure re-
sort, as yet, may be said to be
largely in embryo fact due to the
absence of any considerable effort
on the part of its owners to give
publicity to its superior natural ad
vantages. 1t has nevertheless
attained a fair degree of promi-
nence and promises in the near
future to compare favorably in this
direction with themost popular re-
sorts extant.
No spot upon the rugged and
romantic face of the earth has So

the marvellous grandeur, OF its
scenic surroundings and climatic
conditions. The surprising beauty
and matchless grandeur of the rare
medly of native scenery here pre-

One Query Forthcoming.

Shortly after the appearance or
his first book, Ten Months a Cap
tive Among the Filipinos, an enter
prising manager induced Albert Son
nichsen to go on a lecture tour. The
young author made his debut in a
small New Jersey town in dismal,
ill-lighted hall before a handful of
people huddled in the front seats
and multitude Of empty chairs The
manager. as detected as the lecturer,
sat in the rear under the gloom of
the balcony. Mr.. Sonnichsen ended
his lecture in state Of nervous col
lapse, and then. in order to live up
to his program. said: 81 shall be
pleased to answer any questions you
may care to ask
An oppressive silence followed. Mr.
SonnichSen repeated his offer, with
the same result Something had to
he done. In desperation the lecturer
pointed to that gentleman over
there indicating the manager. and
suggested that he looked "as if he
wanted to ask question:
That disgusted individual, seeing
an opening to get back at the au-
thor, who had attracted attention to
him so Unexpectedly, shouted back:
