Woman's Club EntertaIns.

The "Cradle Songs of Many Nations" I"
given by the music. committee of the
Woman's club, Thursday evening in Py-
THAN Hall, proved very unique and
pleasant OCCASION. The efforts of Mrs..
J. 81. Moore, Miss Alice B. Warden. Mrs.
F. N. Keeler and Mrs. Edward Peterson
of the committee, were well repaid by
the liberal attendance and cordial ap-
plause, as well as by the excellent work
done by the participants. The sweet
voices of the young misses in solo. duet
and chorus work and the assistance
given by the young negro boys showed
the talent to be found among many of
the young people, and the native cos
TUNES added much to the interest and
picturesqueness of the occasion. The
Indians and negroes came in for large
part of the applause. which was well
deserved. Masters Lindol and Eldridge
French gave a pretty little character
song and the tiny voices of Masters
Francis and Wolfgang Crumplin were
well appreciated. The music committee
apd the club may well be proud of this
successful closing of an excellent years
program.

extending from the Enterprise warm
springs TO that point where the river
i,rms the state line between liato and
Oregon. says the Caldwell Tribune. 1t
is proposed 10 have a bill introduced in
the next legislature With that end in
view. The territory is tributary to
Caldwell, Nampa and Parma. The peo-
pie oi that section do all Of their BUSH
ness at one of these three towns, with
the exception Of such business a. must
be done at the county seat Of Owyhee
county. The necessity Of going to Silver
eity frequently causes great loss Of time
and money, as during certain parts oi
the year in order for a man to get from
Poison creek to Silver City, he must first
come to Caldwell. then 60 70 Nampa
and from there TO the county seat of
Owyhee county. At any time in III,
year it is two or three times as far tC
silver City az to Caldwell. In ever,
way the desired change would benefi
those people They are anxious that j
be made. In view Of all the conditions
1t Is thought that no considerable oppo
sition will come from any portion 0
Owyhee county.

TO CHANGE ROUTE
Short Line, It's Said, is cOnism'
plating important Change
In Snake llyer Line.

SALT LAKE CRY, Nov. l9.--The Herald
today says
II plan now under consideration ia
carried out there will be radical
change in the main line Of the Oregon
Short Line in Idaho. Local officials
have under consideration plan to make
the Minidoka branch, now being con.
structed, the main line, extending it
from the terminus near Twin Falls down
the Snake river to Glenn's Ferry. The
preliminary surveys have been com
pleted and there is indication that ia
vorable action will be taken on the
proposition. A great saving in the OPP
Grating department would result, as
some heavy grades west OF Glenn's Fer
~ would be eliminated.
The present route from Minidoka
west is through one OF the most barren
and desolate portions Of Idaho, part Of
the country that never will yield much
freight. On the other hand the pro-
posed branch will run through what
promises to be the most fertile and
iensely populated section OF IdaLo.
The waters Of the Snake river are being
used for irrigation purposes and all the
land up and down the river from Twin
is to be redeemed and opened to cultiva-
ton. In time this stretch OF country
will yield an enormous freight.
Still another consideration that ar.
CUES strongly in favor of the change ol
route is the pleasure passengers will de
rive from the trip down the Snake rivel
past the Twin Falls and the Shoshone
Falls, some of the finest scenery il
Idaho. and the escape from the tiresom'
trip over tho desert west from Minidoka
The old line from Minidoka ives
to Gienn's Ferry, it is understood
would he retained for lccal traffic.

An exchange gives the following: The
Union Pacific is constructing in its
shops at Cheynne, Wyo., one of the
most remarkable vehicles Of transporta-
non ever contrived in the form OF q
.asoIine car, which, if successful, will
,- adopted on the branch lines OF the
Hartman system.
The car is in the form of big passen-
ger coach. and will be operated bv a
gasoline engine. The engine can be re-
versed the same as locomotive and the
car will be similar to those used on in
t-rurban lines, with the advantage that
this car does not require central power
or tn establishment OF electric lines for
TIE conveyance OF power. 1t will have
a capacity OF 90 passengers with baggage,
I'd will make 60 miles an hour. 1t will
10 away with locomotives on branch
lines where traffic is not heavy, and rev.
utionize modern railroad operations.
The gasoline engine is supplied auto
matically from tanks under the car anc
will be as simple of operation as the or
linary street tram cars.

40afnSf the Unions.

The United States court for northern
Idaho has granted one of the most
sweeping perpetual injunctions ever is
sued against organized labor in Idaho.
The case has been IL the courts for
almost year and is one that grew out
of the strike in the camps Of the Pot

r.ver about one year age
The Potlach Lumber company had
trouble with its employees who were
members Of the Princeton. Idaho, FEEDER
al union. The Lumber company went
into the United States courts and asked
Tor an injunction against the labor
union, restraining it from interfering
with the company's work. The usual
temporary order was granted and time
set for a hearing last spring, but iol
some reason neither the union nor any
Of its members made appearance nor Of
Tered resistance to the action.
The injunction granted was, therefore
a,ong the line prayed for in the com
plant. 1t is generally understood
however, that the Princeton labo
union has disbanded, but the injunction
extends to former union men therein
named it is considered just as effectiy'
against the individual as ii there ha'
been no union.

Worlds Greatest Dam.

When the government determined to
expend $4,000, 600 in construction Of the
Salt river dam, sixty miles northeast Of
Phoenix, Arizona, it took the first step
in the creation of the greatest artificial
like on earth The Salt river dam will
be 27O feet high, attaining the greatest
height of any reservoir in the world,
and it will store 1,47s,000 acre feet OF
water, backing it into the mountain
canyons for miles 1t is to be the great
est irrigation project ever developed in
this country. 1t means an abundant
water supply in an immense district
which has been in process OF retrogra-
ton through thirst. 1t means the ad-
dition Of millions upon millions to the
territory, and probably means the So
luton OF the problem Of irrigation in the
west, for it is generally agreed that upon
the success Of this measure will depend
the building OF many other great irriga,
ton works OF the Rockies.-J. o. Dun

King Peter's BrOnze Crown.

The government of Servia has decid-
ed that King Peter ought to be proper
ly crowned this summer says the Bel
grade correspondent of the London Pail
Mall Gazette. 1t is hoped that his coro-
nation in Zitcha, the old and still part
ly ruined, church of old Servian kings,
will increase in a measure the peoples
interest in their new king. 1t has been
decided that a piece of an old bronze
cannon with which the grandfather Of
King Peter fought his first battles
against the Turks a hundred years ago
should be manufactured into the shape
of crown. AS not single precious
stone or pearl is to be added to this
bronze crown, its intrinsic value will
not exceed 80 $50. King Peter is to
be anointed and crowned. But the.
cheapness of his crown is already Civ.
ing occasion for the exercise of criti-
cisms in the coffee houses in Belgrade.

THE ROSEBUD RESERVATION
South Dakota Lands Soon to he
Thrown Open to Settlement.

south Dakota Lands Soon to he
Thrown Open to Settlement.
The unallotted lands Of the Rosebud
Indian agency, situated in Gregory
county, S. d., have been turned over to
the government for public allotment,
and one more of the few choice tracts
of public lands now remaining are to
be thus thrown open.
Under President Roosevelt's procla-
nation United States registry land Of
fees are to be opened July ut Yank-
ton, Fairfax and Bonesteel, s. d., for
the registration Of applicants for these
lands. The registration books will re-
main open until July %, and commenc-
ing July 2S drawings will take place
applicants will be permitted to make
final entry and settlement The final
entry begins at Bonesteel, Aug. 8. No
one is permitted to register or make
entry to land by mail, but must be
personally present at one of the three
points named for registration and at
Bonesteel for final entry.
The Rosebud Indian reservation is
probably, acre for acre, the richest
piece of public land that the govern
ment now controls In fact 1t Is doubt
full If any reservation ever thrown open
by the government represented SO high
an actual average value for its lands
on the day of opening.
The lands in question comprise $780,
600 acres, situated between the Mis-
souri, and Niobrara rivers, in the
southeastern part Of South Dakota, in
