ball team in the field this season. We have

material, several of them having played on the
team before, and there is possibility of a few
new faces being added. so there is sure to be
strong aggregation. This team has always had
high standing with all the leading amateurs
of the State, county and city. Many games
have already been scheduled for the season.

River Again Navieable.

The first steamboat to navigate
Snake river for nearly three months
arrived at Lewiston Tuesday Of last
week. The steamer Lewiston, in charge
of Captain Works, left Riparia Monday
evening and made about 20 miles that
night, finishing the run the next day.
The resumption Of the steamboat traf-
fic on the river will hasten the con-
struction Of the Riparia railroad, as the
contractors have been unable to get
supplies and material since the boat
service was Withdrawn. The Lewiston
brought up full load of camp supplies
and distributed it at the various camps
along the river. The river is not yet
at high stage by any means, but the
Lewiston used the line only once on
her first trip, that being at Log Cabin
rapids. Herald.

Bic Blast on Snake River.

About 500 people were gathered at
the river Tuesday evening, October
10th, to see the Inland Construction
Co. set off their big blast, but, though
the company were pleased with the
interest taken, they thought best not
to set off the blast, as it might endan-
ger the safety Of the crowd. AT 10
O'Clock Wednesday morning the fuse
was lighted and terrific explosion fol-
lowed, hurting the rock across Snake
river, distance Of quarter OF mile.
The blast was set SO deep that the
noise was not great, but the smoke and
flying rock was an interesting sight.
The explosion caused all the electric
cables which span the river at that
point to be severed, thus cutting OF
the light and power service of Moscow
and Genesee. About 5000 yards O.
rock was displaced.-Clarkston Repub'

Straw Day.

STRAW Day" is becoming regular
feature in many Palouse and Big Bend
communities at about this time Of the
year. Such occasions are frequently
made local holidays, when all business
ceases and merchants, clerks and pro-
fessional men take an active hand
along with the farmer and other laborer
in "strawing'' the roads. The straw
plan has been proved efficient as a
means Of placing the roads in good
shape and keeping them in that condi-
ton for long time, thus resulting in
better trade conditions in the country
towns adopting the plan and making
the hauling Of grain and produce tc
market easie. and more economical &c

Sale Of Lots Delayed.

Hon. c. J. Munson informs The
News that the title to the state lands
adjoining Troy will probably not be in
condition where it can be sold before

with the state in this matter. The

acting for the land board, has taker

Reception rendered Rev. OVAL.

Rev. John OVAL, pastor OF the Swed-
ish methodist church at Fremont, was
given reception at the church parlors
October 18th by his congregation.
During the period Of almost year that
Rev. OVAL has had charge of the Ere
mont church it has expanded in size
and much has been done to make the
church power in the community.
John Arvidson and August Anderson
made addresses and Mr.. OVAL was pre-
sented with a goodly sum.
Mr.. OVAL is we'll known in the north
west as a worker in religious fields and
has been associated with all movements
Of religious nature carried on by his
church. The reception given him is
only a token OF recognition of his rare
ability and manifestations of the esteem
in which he is held by his congrega-
ton. Mr.. OVAL was presiding elder cl
the Swedish Methodist church of the
Northwest as we'll as pastor of the Swed-
ish Methodist church at Fremont. Al
the state convention of the Prohibition
party held at Everett year ago he was
chosen presidential elector. He was
in Tacoma several years where he was
elected president Of the Scandinavian
Reform Society, and held the office sol
t three years.-Seattle Daily Times.

Strawberries in October.

Gus Danielson has the prima facia
evidence on hand to prove that the
Palouse country, aside from yielding
moneymaking crops Of almost every
kind, provides its fortunate inhabitants
with luxurious eatables excelled by but
few localities, and those in southern
climes, says the Palouse Republic.
Mr.. Danielson has, since the month oil
June, been eating big red strawberries
picked off his own vines, and still con-
tinues TO eat them. Sunday there
was enough Of the fruit ripe to make
an excellent meal for the family. The
Republic was this week presented with
box. Strawberries at this season o.
the year are, to say the least, unusual
and luxury not to be denied.

An Electric Railroad.

The News learns from what appears
TO be a reliable source that the Spo-
kane & Inland Electric Railroad
Company is planning to invade the
Potlatch country and as soon as the
road is completed to Palouse next year
that the company will have surveys
made and line located from Palouse
south to Viola, thence east around the
north side OF Moscow Mountain to the
headwaters Of Bear Creek, thence west
to Troy, American and Fix Ridges,
Cenesee and on to Lewiston. 1t is
understood that men have already been
over the ground for the purpose of ex-
amining the lay Of the country prepara-
tory to sending out surveyors and that
as soon spring comes surveying parties
will be put into the field to locate the
line. That such move on the part
Of the Spokane electric road is being
contemplated has been surmised for
several months. 1t will be remembered
that the Elk Creek Falls, one Of the
most magnificent water powers in the
northwest, was the object Of quite a
controversy last spring, and that finally
Mr.. Skjarve was induced to sell them
to Lewiston parties on a cash royalty
basis. The waters of Elk Creek,
within distance Of about quarter OF
a mile fall distance of over $50 feet,
one perpendicular fall amounting to
10 feet. The railway people fnly
understanding the value Of such a mag
nifcent power in connection with the
operation OF an electric railroad, evil
dently secured the location, and when
the time comes will harness the fall:
and use the power in moving trains
over the line proposed. From the line
Of the road where i. will undoubtedly
turn west to Troy, to the falls on Eli
creek would be less than thirty miles
and the expense of establishing the
plant and bringing it to the line Of the
road would be nominal, considering it
extent. That the information concern
ing the object of the electric compan.
is practically correct is almost certain
when the matter OF acquiring th'
Elk Creek Falls and the searching ou
OF the route at any time nee'
not create any surprise. The Spokan
& Inland is controlled by energetic
far seeing business men and there
no question that they are behind tn
movement acquiring the falls, the pow
er from which could be used to i'm
mense advantage to such a project.

WILLARD STATUE
Is ACCEPTED

WASHINGTON, Feb. IL. - The
snow- white marble statue of Miss
Frances E. Willard, conspicuous as
a score or more of images Of noted
men, was unveiled in Statuary hall
of the capitol this afternoon with
exercises Of a highly interesting and
impressive character. The statue is
a gift from the state of Illinois, but
its formal acceptance today was made
the occasion for loving tribute from
the women of the entire country to
the memory Of the great temperance
leader.
The exercises were conducted I'M
der the auspices of the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union Of the
District of Columbia. The national
officers Of the organization, a number
Of the state presidents and many
leading workers from various parts
Of the country were in attendance.
The exercises were attended also by
the members of congress in a body
and addresses eulogizing the life,
character and work Of Miss Willard
were delivered by several Of the rep
resentatives from Illinois. At the
conclusion of the exercises 1000
school children filed through Statuary
hall and each placed a white carna-
ton at the base of the statue.
The statue, which is of Carrara
marble, is the work of Miss Helen
Farnsworth Mears of Wisconsin. 1t
represents the famous temperance
leader standing in modern dress by
reading desk as though about to
address an audience In her left hand
are a few leaves Of manuscript and
her right arm rests easily on the
desk. At her feet on the pedestal
are carved these words from one of
her addresses:
"Ah it is women who have given
the costliest hostages to fortune. Out
into the battle of life they have sent
their best beloved, with fearful odds
against them. Oh, by the dangers
they have dared; by the hours of
patient watching over beds where
helpless children lay; by the incense
of ten thousand prayers waited from
their gentle lips to heaven, l charge
you to give them power to protect
along life's treacherous highways
those whom they have so loved"
