An UnanswerabIe Argument.

The superintendent Of the Indian
school at Chamberlain, S. d., nod
ded toward a prim, grave little girl.
Sometimes" he said, "the argu-
ments of children are unanswerable.
You see that little girl with straight
black hair tied with red ribbon?
Well, her name is Arrow. She is q
chiefs daughter. Her father and
mother are quite civilized, and she
is being brought up in household as
civilized as a Bostonian's. In argu-
ment it is sometimes impossible to
get the better of her. She said to
her mother one day:
81 wish had new doll.
"eBut your old DOLL her mother
answered, is as good as ever
$50 am as good as ever, little
Arrow retorted, but the doctor
brought you new baby.

Smart Set

Readers of The Smart Set have
learned to look upon the complete
novel that appears in each issue of
that magazine as the biggest event of
the month in fiction; but even the
most enthusiastic reader will be hap
PLY surprised by the story in the Feb
ruary number Beyond doubt The
Eavesdroppers,' by Arthur Stringer.
will procve one of the sensations of
the year. The story deals with the
careers of two daring criminals man
and a woman--whose astonishing adj
venturers the reader follows with
breathless interest. From the very
opening sentence the tale becomes one
of rapid and exciting incident, and,
moreover, it is written with that liter
airy distinction which always charac-
tetrzes Mr. Stringer's work. Different
as The Eavesdroppers" is from such
fiction as In the Bishops Carriage
and "Raffles," it combines all the in
terest of those stories with a move
rnent and intensity entirely its own
1t is a notable achievement for the
author, and will prove notable novel;
cite in The Smart Sets long list of
successful stories.

NAY BUILD
TO LEWISTON
Reported That Spokane Electric
Promoters May Come
This Way

Information has been received in the
city that the promoters of the Spokane
& Inland Electric railway project were
contemplating the visiting of this sec
ton in the very near future with a view
of comforting with the business inter-
ests of Lewiston with the object of de-
termining whether this city will con-
tribute towards the success of the line.
An effort was made this morning by
The Teller. to get into communication
with Mr.. J. p. Graves with view of
learning the reliability of the report.
Up to the hour of going to press no
reply had been received. It is known
however that the promoters of the pro-
ject have stated that the line which
will be built through to Moscow would
eventually be completed to the Clear
water or Snake river with a likelihood
of a terminus in this city. Some time
ago The Teller suggested that the only
feasible grade for this line, so far as
known at this time was the Hatwai
gulch, the line coming in at a point
east of Uniontown thence through the
Collins ranch and then by easy grade
dow the Hatwai gulch coming out on
the river line near Central ferry TO
build down to the city would be the
natural result. The building of the
line to this city would be of immense
benefit to the residents of Lewiston
valley as well as to the line itself. With
the coming of the proposed line it
would soon be followed by the early
building of the Grangeville line and the
two roads could work Jointly on the
traffic.
The matter of interesting the pro-
motors of the Spokane line in this sec
ton should be taken up by the Com
mercial club of this city and every in
ducement should be made to encour-
age the extension of the proposed line.
1t is reliably reported that the gentle
men interested in the project are
thoroughly capable of working out the
details OF construction and are finan-
cially capable OF pushing the project
to completion. AS an evidence Of the
matter in hand many OF the stockhold-
ers in the new project are also inter-
esteG- in the Occur d'Alene electric line
which is now in operation and is work
ing at profit.

BILLS TO
amend LAWS
Will Cover Fish and Game Season
and Bounty on the
Cougar

Parties interested in the game and
fish laws and the bounty laws in this
e+ate are preparing amendments to the
present laws which will be forwarded
IN the Nez Perez county delegation in
Boise with the recommendation that
every effort be put forth to have the
ant,ndments passed. The amendments
as prepared have the endorsement of
the Nez Perez County Sportsman as
ISOLATION.
The amendment to the bounty law
asks that bounty be placed on cou-
gars. panthers and mountain lions. ut
Is stated that animals Of this kind do
more injury to the deer during a sea-
son than dozen hunters and many in
stances have been cited where the deer
have suffered from this cause
The amendments to the game and
fish law ask for a change in the prairie
chicken season. At present the season
is open from August 18th to December
7st 1t is proposed to open the season
from September 18th and close it De-
cember 18th. Another recommendation
is that the season for fishing with hook
and line attached to a rod held in the
hand be left open all the year around
The present law provides for closed
also provides that screens be placed in
all mill races, bitches and other
streams
