ing Of the Idaho. The official guests
OF the ship builders were seated at an
immense round table, which was gor-
geously decorated with pottsd palms,
cut flowers, fags and hunting. When
the guests arose after the feast, fully
1000 banquetters at other tables
rushed for the main table and began
stripping it of its decorations. which
were desired as souvenirs Of the oc-
casiou. Men mounted ON top of the
table and attepmted to carry away
everything movable, including the
big potted plants. They were inter
rupted before it was too late.
Miss Louise Gooding, the Idaho
girl, who ehristened the big ship,
performed her important part OF the
ceremonies with grace and dignity.
She broke the bottle just at the right
time and uttered the christening
words in happy voice at the proper
moment. The Cramps said that the
launching was altogether the most
successful that has ever occurred at
their yards.
MAGNIFICENT SHIP.
The governor says that the Idaho is
a ship of which the state aud the ma
tion should be proud. There wss
nothing very imposing about the
mammoth hulk as it appeared at the
time of the launching, except its i'm
mense size.
But when it is fully armored, arm
ed and placed in commission, which
will not be for at least IA months
yet, the vessel will be one Of the
most formidable fighting machines in
the American navy and will no doubt
carry the name of Idaho to fame and
victory, should the occasion ever
arise.
81 believe that my trip to Phila-
delphia and TO Washington will re-
suit in very great benefit to the
state, says Governor GoodiUg. IF
the plans which We have mapped cut
wit1 the national administration do
not miscarry, sc will soon be in a
position to place the common schools
Of Idaho in possession of magnrfl-
cent heritage in the way of a land
endowment, which, in course of the
next few generations, will 80 increase
in value and earning capacity that
the schools of this state will be self
spnpurting for all time That will
Be an achievmeu to be proud Of. -
The governor believes that the bill
introduced By Senator Hepburn fer
an additional land grant for the ben
eft of the new state capitol will be-
come Law. and that Senator Dubois
bill for land grant for the soldiers
home will also pass the national con
Rress. The governor Ia inclined TO
believe that the future Of Idaho Is
bright.

THE FUNNY PUFFER.
a Queer Creature Of the Salt Seas IL
the Blovfish.

The funr st little fellow in salt
water is the puffer, or swellfsh.
Fishermen call him the blowfsh.
When he is swimming around at
ease with nothing TO alarm him he
looks queer enough, for the skin Of
his abdomen is all loose and wrin-
killed., and he has such a funny tail
and such ridiculous little fms and
such big, three cornered head that
he looks entirely absurd. His mouth,
instead of being big and gaping, as
most fish mouths are, is only a tiny
round hole at the end Of a pointed,
conical snout. Out of this circular
mouth protrude his teeth, like those
of a rabbit. He would be about as
homely fish as could be made if it
were not for the beautiful orange
and yellow and silver colorings that
play all over him. But queer as he
looks when he is at ease, it is only
when he is frightened or excited
that he becomes really funny. II he
is hooked, for instance, he comes to
the surface grinding those protrud-
ing teeth so that the sound can be
heard a good many feet away, and
then as soon as the hand touches
him he begins to grunt hoarsely,
and with each grunt he swells bit
till within a few moments he has
pulled himself so full of air that he
Is quite round and firm, like a ball.
So thoroughly does he distend him
self with air that when the fisher
men hurl him at the water with all
their force, as they often do, he viii
bounce like a rubber ball. If he is
dropped into the water after blow
ing himself full of air he floats on II
as lightly as thistledown, and he
will stay that way until he has as
sured himself that danger has gone
By. He does the same when he is
pursued by other fish, and as he
floats almost entirely out Of water,
with only a little bit Of his hard,
spiny body sunk under the surface,
very few fish can hurt him once he
is inflated.

FrankIin's Wit.

The wit of Benjamin Franklin was
proverbial in his days, but never was
it exhibited to such an excellent ad-
vantage as at great dinner given by
the Prime Minister of France, to a
number Of mobiles and Ambassadors,
during the time that Franklin repre-
sented the United States at the French
court.
The sumptuous feast was disposed
of In courses. and when the time came
for toastmaking, the English Ambas-
sador, clad in his gorgeous uniform,
arose and said: Here's to England
the sun that lights the world"
The Frenchman's turn came next
and rising he said: And here's to
France, the moon that rules whereer
the sun does not"
Almost breathless silence followed
when Franklin, slowly rising, lifted his
glass with an air Of dignity and said:
"And here's to America, the Joshua who
commanded the sun and moon to stand
still. and they Stood"

Bright Homes.

Don't be afraid Of little fun at
home. Don't shut your house lest the
sun should fade your carpets, and your
hearts, lest a hearty laugh shake down
some Of the nusty old coowebs there.
If you want to ruin your sons, let them
think that all lnirth and social enjoy
ment must be left on the Threshold
without when they come home at
night. Young people must have fun
and relaxation somewhere. If they do
not find it at their own hearthstones it
will be sought at other less profitable
places. Therefore let the fires burn
brightly at night, and make the home
stead delightful with all those little
arts that parents so perfectly UNDER
stand. Don't repress the buoyant
spirits of your children; half an hours
merriment round the lamp and fireside
Of home blots out the remembrance of
many care and annoyance during the
day, and the best safeguard they can
take with them into the world is the
influence of bright little domestic
sanctum.

Planning A New Home.

may be saved the irritation of having
piece taken out of your new wall
and the banister scratched and brok.
en- by careless baggageman in his
efforts to CRY a trunk downstairs.
Run by an arrangement of ropes and
pulleys, it need not be an expensive
affair.
Have an upstairs back porch" where
bedding can be aired. Much back
breaking work carrying blankets and
pillows up and down stairs will be
saved. One end screened with wire
netting and furnished with comfort
restful sleep on hot summer night.
Have an electric light in each clothes
closet. A press of the button will light
the darkest corner. Hurried CROP
ings in the dark closet in frantic
search for missing garment are not
conducive to tranquil mind.
Have short carpenter put up the
hooks. Judging from the way Ihave
had to stretch my arms to reach clothes
press hooks, I am sure the tallest car
penter must always be selected to
put them up.
Bureau drawers in which to keep
ones underclothing are not ideal.
They have an exasperating way Of
getting filled up and when pulled open
carry the nicely ironed garments down
behind the drawer to be forgotten per-
haps, anyway to be dragged out rum
pied and dusty. Have case Of
shelves not too high. Have daintily
padded and scented covers for the
shelves, on which shall repose neatly
folded garments, glance showing just
what you want. Loaded glass doors
lined with silk the prevailing color Of
the room will keep out the dust and be
an ornament to the room.

Last Saturday Mr.. Rosa, accom-
panied by his wife and two youngest
daughters, sailer for Ireland, At the
dock representatives of the various
irish societies rendered him a recep-
ton. His last words We're:
l am going back to Ireland. l expect
to revisit America, but my friends
there have deemed it more fitting that
my last years should be spent in my
native land, and although 1 have
grown to love America and my chill
dren have grown up here and are
Americans in sympathy through and
through, still the call from my coun-
try is too strong to resist. I am going
back. Three of my daughters and my
son remain in this country. My two
youngest daughters and my wife are
with me.
Friends in Cork have secured for me
the secretaryship of the Common
Council. 1t is a life post at modest
salary. But the duties are not ardu-
Gus, and I will have time to continue
to the end the work on behalf of Home
Rule for Ireland, even if absolute in
dependence is an achievement too far
away for the present generation or
century.
These warm-hearted friends have
secured villa for me in one of the
pretty suburbs of Cork, furnished it
completely and have told me that the
landlord will never come around to
bother me for rent.

Droste Zu Vlscnering
Superioress of the Monastery of the
Good Shepherd at Porto.
Porto PortugaD, 9th January, 1899.
While this letter was on its way to
it's destination the sufferings OF the
holy nun became intensified, but like
wise her serenity. On January she
had announced to her confessor with
an accent of the most remarkable GER
tainty that that year, 1899, the grand
design of the Sacred Heart would be
accomplished. The letter reached the
Vatican on January Is, and deeply
moved the Sovereign Pontiff. Investi-
cations were ordered, and inquiries
made as to the virtues Of Sister Mary
Of the Divine Heart. Needless to say,
the result was most favorable, and His
Holiness felt most disposed to accord
the favor besought by the servant of
God. The first thought Of Leo XIII.
was to reserve the conservation for the
opening year of the new century, be-
| cause of the time necessary to make
what he deemed BETTING preparation
and for the formalities requisite: but
subsequently he was inspired to
advance the date by year. thereby
fulfilling the prophecy of the holy nun
to her confessor.
We need not here recapitulate what
is in every ones memory as to the

tails. Suffice it to add that the Tri-

LODGE FOR SHIP SUBSIDY.
The Best Way to Build Up the Mer-
chant Marine, He SAYS.

Peabody, Mass, Sept. 13-A speech by Senator
Lodge. strongly advocating subsidies as the best
method of reviving New England shipping and
opening new markets to trade. was the feature of
a dinner given by the Essex Club at the Town Hall
to-day.
After making a brief and somewhat caustic reply
to recent Democratic criticisms of his speech on
foreign policy, delivered last Saturday Senator
Lodge said that shipping interests had been
ected, although country still has large harbors
and a monopoly that cannot be taken away The
rebuilding of the merchant marine he thought.
would do more than anything else 10 restore the
fortunes Of ew-England made in shipping 100
years ago "All industries he said. have been
protected except the ship owner. While he has
been allowed to import his materials free. he has
had only the coastwise trade. and been left to
compete with highly protected foreign merchant
marine
Mr.. Lodge said he formerly believed it was i'm
possible give subsidies. owing largely to the
prejudice against them, but since the hearings
given by the special committee of Congress be
had reached the conclusion that the other remedy.
discriminating duties would be just as impract-
cable, because it would entail the abrogaton of
thirty treaties and would be expensive. He
then described two sorts of subsidies the Eng
lish for mail service under the theory that with
lines of fast ships business will grow. and the
French, which is a general subsidy. He took up
sion of Congress- and said it would grant a mail
subsidy to certain lines in South America and the
