STATE CHAIRMAN.

The Republican party is peculiar
~ fortunate in securing Col. J. H.
Brady of Pocatello as State Chair
man. There is no more shrewd,
energetic or persevering personality
in the State. He represents pre-
eminently vigorous, progressive
and successful ,Americanism. He
occupies foremost position in the
development of the national re-
sources of the southeastern coun-
ties. Through him the mighty
Snake river at American Falls has
been harnessed, and its energies
transferred to growing cities from
Pocatello to Blackfoot. Through
him an immense system of irriga-
ton canals stretching from Mays
vile to American Falls has been
completed and now conveys water
to tens of thousands of acres of rich
lands. He has overcome obstacles
which to other men seemed insur.
mountable; he has succeeded where
others gave up in despair: he has
marched on triumphantly where
others fell fainting by the wayside,
That is the man to whom is en-.
trusted leadership of the Republi.
can party of Idaho, and there need
be no misgivings as to the outcome,

The Democratic County Conven-
ton met at Nampa Monday. The
Steunenberg faction was routed.
Chairman Walling called the con-
vention to order, and secretary
Johnson read the call. The tenn
porary organization was made per-

when the resolution committee re-
ported. The platform as read by

form as good Democratic doctrine.

Insanity and Another Tragedy.

That settled it, so far as the owner
and his family were concerned. they
moved away from the house at once,
and an old uncle was allowed to live
in it rent free. He was taken to an
asylum for the insane inside of five
years.
Then the house was idle for five
years or so, and finally Payson Brig
ham moved in. He stayed two years,
with his wife and son, and one morn
ing they found him with his throat
cut and lying near the open window.
Then followed ten years when no
one could be induced to live in the
house. At last Morrill, Brigham and
his family moved in. They lived there,
apparently unmindful of the hoodoo'
until seven years ago. Then Morrill,
Brigham began to do queer things.
He would stay up all night singing
strange songs. He read many detec-
tive stories. Hawthorne, also, came
in for great share of his attention.
He bought banjo and learned to play
it, taking lessons from negro who
lived in a little cabin about seven
miles up toward Worcester.
When asked by his wife why he
had such strange notions, he would
say that he was trying to drive away
the hoodoo. But he didn't succeed,
and one morning they found him with
a deep cash in his throat. stretched
out on the floor in the suicides room.
For five years after Morrill, Brig
hams death no one would stay in the
house over night Then Farmer Blais
came along and saw the good land,
the vacant house and barn for
horse if he cared to keep one. He
heard the story of the suicide room
and the many stories of ghosts and
mysterious noises heard by the pass
ers-by late at night. But that only
made the price of the place more rea-
sonable in the market, and SO he
bought 1t.
And there the matter stands, an
enigma to students of psychology.
Meanwhile the genial Canadian farm
err and his two sons are sleeping calm
" at night, unruffled by the traditions
of the self-destruction epidemic which
cling to the upper room.

place, Charlton Park, is a little more
hard cash. Hitherto his mother the
countess of Suffolk and Berkshire,
with his two sisters, the Ladies How.
ard, have lived there entirely, doing
all his entertaining for him.
Charlton Park is one of the NEST
splendid old Jacobean houses in Eng
land, and its great oakpaneled pic
ture gallery, as well as most Of the
vast state rooms, is crammed from
end to end with old family portraits
and royal pictures. These include
portraits of Queen Elizabeth, Mary of
Modena, King George | and Catherine
of Braganza. Three old family por-
traits are in silver frames, a quite
unique and long extinct luxury of the
days of family property.
The wonderful old kitchens are a
feature of Charlton Park. They are
at a long distance from the house
itself, being connected by an under
ground tunnel built of stone. These
are, however, seldom if ever used.
Lord Suffolk was educated at Win
chester; he is great sportsman, and
the kennels of his own pack of hounds
are in close proximity to the fine old
mansion.
His friends are delighted over his
engagement to so fine girl as Miss
Letter, whose sister, Lady Curzon, is
now satisfied with the improved state
of her health.
Highcliffe Castle is an ideal home
for convalescing, and Lady Curzon' s
bedroom has splendid views away to
the Isle of Wight, and is the same
apartment where the king slept dur
ing his last visit.

Duchess Likes "Coon" Songs.

When she was Consuelo Vanderbilt
the duchess of Marlborough had a
sweet voice-not remarkable for its
timbre but pleasing-and she used
to shock her musical instructors a lit
tic by displaying decided liking for
the quaint melodies of the old planta-
ton darkies. Now, even as a stately
and dignified duchess, she loves to
sing these old ballads and the more
modern coon" songs for the enter
tainment of her friends, and she has
made the melodies so popular they
have become all the rage in the fam
lilies of the nobility. The duchess or
Westminster has taken them up, and
so has Princess Henry of Pless.

SULPHUR for Dipiitheria.

Sulphur is one of the most effica-
cious and simple cures for diphtheria.
All that is needed is -four of sulphur
and quill, and with these, it is said,
one celebrated physician cured every
patient without exception.
He put teaspoonful of -four of sui
phur into a wineglass of water and
stirred it with his finger instead of
spoon. the sulphur not readily amalga-
mating with water When the sulphur
was well mixed the physician gave it
as a gargle, and in ten minutes the
patient was out of danger. Sulphur
kills every species of fungus in man.
beast and plant in few minutes. In
stead of splitting out the gargle the
swallowing of it is recommended.
In extreme cases in which the above
specialist had been called in the nick
of time, when the fungus was too
nearly closing to allow the gargling
he blew the sulphur through quill
into the throat and after the fungus
had shrunl to allow of it then gave
the gargle.
