ELLIOTT & HARVEY, DRUGGISTS
Under The Cars

Erick Weander, an old man
working on the section in A. L.
Alstrands gang met with a
serious accident last night
about 7:10 o'clock. He had
been up town and bought some
groceries and started for his
home in OdelPsaddition. When
he came to the crossing at the
car shops there was a long
freight train standing there,
and instead of waiting for the
train to pass he attempted to
crawl under the cars. While
he was under the car the train
backed up, and being an old
man 60 years of age, he was
not spry enough to get out of
the way and the wheel passed
over his left leg. He was
carried to the Gasson hospital,
where DR.. Colt, assisted by DIS.
McGavren and Shily amputated
the leg between the knee and
ankle. The patient had rallied
from the shock this morning
and is doing as we'll as could be
expected. He has been a sec
ton man here for about twenty
years, and is a widower and
kept bachelor hall in Odells
addition.

To The TINES: I thought
would write you few lines for
your paper from this county,
and if you find it worthy of a
place in your c columns, correct
and publish, if not, throw it to
one side. This being my first
attempt at writing for publica-
ton, | hope you will excuse all
mistakes and correct the same.
My wife and | are here at this
place stopping with our daugh-
ter. We both had the grippe,
but are around again but not
yet very stout. We came here
last fall, the weather has been
very nice, some rain in October;
November was warm and clear.
December and January we had
some rain and snow, but not
much of either. the deepest
snow was only about fiveinches
deep, the colddst weather was in
February being2 degrees below
zero; the rivers Payette and
Snake have not been frozen
over this winter; we have had
two weeks the last of February
very clear and warm, the frost
is out of the ground and the
grass has started nicely; the
meadow larks are singing, and
spring is certainly here.
We like this country, and al
so Oregon and Washington, for
their mild climate, fine fruit,
and many other thinghs | could
mention if necessary.
People who have lived here
for years all seem to be doing
very we'll and are satisfied.
Farming pays better here
than in the east; there is no hard
winds or cyclones, no overflow
of streams, no hail storms, no
damage of grain by rust; these
are some of the reasons why it
pays better to farm in the west,
then you don't have to farm so
much land; will give you a few
names of farmers, and what
they raised: Mr.. Maxfeld, 80
acres in alfalfa, PA tons sold

FOR SERVING CHEESE.
Some Of the Ways in Which the Num-
bers of Cheeses May Be Pre-
| pared for the Table.

White cream cheese can be made
into such pretty looking dishes for
luncheon or dinner and with only a
little trouble.
The cheese is so soft that it can be
easily worked, or, if it is inclined to
crumble, a little sweet cream, beaten
in with a silver fork, will make it the
right consistency to manage.
Mold 1t into a mound-shaped, dent
ing in the top, and fill the hollow with
crab-apple or currant jelly. The red
contrasts with the white In a most
tempting way.
Another way is to press the cheese
without the addition of any cream
through colander until 1t lies in q
soft, irregular mound of light, 1aky
cheese. Push it into a round shape
and set a row of preserved strawber
ries or candied berries around the
base.
Cheese balls-the cream cheese
rolled in little balls between wooder
paddles that come for butter balls
are pretty to put on the side of the
Individual plates of lettuce. Or an
other clever idea is to crack English
walnuts and to put the halves one OF
each side of little ball of cheese

HONoRED BY PRESIDENT.
Texas Girl Is Named by the Nations
Chief Daughter of the
Regiment"

A unique figure at the reunion OF
the Rough Riders at San Antonio was
Miss Gladys Johnston, who is known
as the Daughter Of the Regiment" !"
Miss Johnston lives at Columbus, Tex,
q little town on the Southern Pacific,
between San Antonio and New Or
leans In June, 1898, when the Rough
Riders, under Lieut.-Col. Roosevelt,
were on their way to Tampa, the en-
gine of the train broke down few
miles outside of Columbus, and the
train was delayed several hours.
Capt. Greenway, of the Rough
Riders, who knew Miss Johnston,
seeing her in the crowd watching the
breakdown, invited her aboard the
train and presented her to Col. Roose-
welt. She spent several pleasant
hours in the officers private car, and,
before leaving, Col Roosevelt ex-
pressed desire for naming her as
the Daughter of the Regiment"
While the Rough Riders were in
camp at Tampa Miss Johnston re.
ceived telegram asking her to come
to that place and be the guest of the
regiment. 1t was impossible for hel
to do so at that time, but she went tc
Washington to attend the inaugura
ton, and called upon Col. Roosevelt
at the white house When she
greeted him she called him "Col
Roosevelt" and when she attempted
to correct her salutation by saying
''Mr President" he stopped her ant
said he liked to be called colonel,
for it took him back to happ!
days. 1t was at this time that sh,
received special invitation at tn
hands of Col" Roosevelt to atten,
the reunion of the Rough Riders a
