Across the Continent In Tourist
Sleeper

A point not generally known Is
possible to make the trip. from
ocean to ocean across the United
States, in a tourists sleeper. Cars
are run on weekly aud semi weekly
schedule by several OF lines be-
tween Boston and Chicago.
Western roads operating between
Chicago and the Pacific coast carry
similar through sleepers, on daily,
mi-weekly and weekly sched-
ules. The principal lines run these
cars daily out of Chicago and they
have proved very popular as a
means of long-distauce transporta-
ton.
The reason for this is that in
these tourist sleepers one enjoys
all of the comforts aud advantages
provided by the standard Pullmans
The cars are manned by uniformed
porters and conductors as are the

On certain days Of the week the
cars are in charge of a special

Administration Change

Administrator AIldnge
Governor Morrison has stepped
down into the ranks of private
citizenship; Governor Gooding has
stepped up from those ranks to
assume the active duties and re-
sponsibijities Of chief executive.
OF the former it can be said he
has discharged his duties faithfully
and honestly; of the latter it can
be said that the interests OF the
people are in safe hands and that
his ambition is to make the ad-
ministration of which he is the
head, a model in every respect.
Governor Morrison retlres from
public life carrying with him the
esteem of the people he has serv-
ed so faithfully and their best
wishes for his future success.
Their eyes now turn from the old
to the new. AT no time IN the
history of the state, perhaps, have
greater responsibilities rested upon
the administrative shoulders. The
remarkable growth OF the state
creates new demands upon those
in charge of state affairs. To a
degree the outgoing admlnlstra-
ton was confronted by similar
conditions, but it was hampered
by the fact that the Legislature
.6&d not.made proper provision to
meet the new requirements. Dur,
ing the past two years Idaho has
undergone a radical change, and
The administration that has just

must be taken out of swaddllDs
clothes and robed in the full hab
iliments of statehood. The bar
riers must be torn down; thu

more room wherein to develop
1t is up to the Legislature to DO it.
Official Idaho is several years be
hind industrial Idaho. The state
institutions are crowded and thei
facilities are inadequate; the state
officers are poorly housed and i'm
properly equipped; provincial
methods prevail in various depart
ments. There must be change
if official Idaho would boune
aheah. The time has long since
passed when a change of pole,
should have been adopted. Ba
it is not too late. Will the Eight

Care Taken By q SiNteen-Year-Old Horse
Of his Blind Mate.
Tom and Jerry are sixteen-year-old
horses owned by q jersey City lawyer who
has a farm at New Brunswick, n. J. They
are greatly ATTACHED 10 each other and are
apparently miserable unless together.
Jerry has been blind for several years
and Tom has appointed himself bis mate .
guardian. They occupy adjoining stalls
and spend hours rubbing noses.
For q long time after jerry lost his sight
the stableman found the blind horse In
his companions stall every morning. He
couldn't understand how he managed to
unite the halter, and told his employer
that be guessed somebody was playing
But the pranks continued so long that be
was directed 20 solve the mystery. He
hid In the hay, where he could get fun
view Of Tom and Jerry IN their stalls, and
They came al a late hour. Tom showed
his nose over into Jerry's stall and Whin-
MED. Jerry poked his nose close up 20
Toms ear, and the man In the hay was al
most certain that he saw the horse with
men Tom turned his head around and
looked all over the stable A. II 70 learn N the
coat was clear. A moment later he was
Juggling away az the blind horses halter
With his teeth and he didn't stop until his
team mate was free.
old Jerry slowly backed out Of his stall
and crowded In alongside Tom, who greeted
Rim with an unmistakablo neigh Of delight.
This trick waa repeated night after night
and now the borses spend half their time

MAY PULL OFF
FIGHT.
AL Livingston Fig
ures on a Big
Bout For
Reno.

There is a possibility of one of
the great light weight prize fights
being pulled off in Reno this sum-
mer. It is probable that there will
be go between Britt and Nelson
or with Cans, who won the
championship on q foul, and Reno
may be the winning bidder for
the bout.
Several gentlemen of this city
and Carson have become interest
ed in the matter and within the
next few days developments may
come about which will result in
the organization of club that
will raise a suitable purse, and
sufficient capital to pull off the
match.
Thursday, Al Livingston, a
prominent sporting man OF Car
son. and who was one of the most
active men in the pulling off of
the Corbett- -Fitzsimons fight in
1897, came to Reno and during
the afternoon and last night he
met with several local men with
sporting blood in their veins re-
lative to the matter.
He thinks that on account of
she favorable law on the statute
books regulating glove contest and
the fact that the Question Of Cali
so9lia favoritism wonld be elimin-
asetl, that Reno would be able to
land the fight and to handle ie
successfully.
"'rhere is no question but that
Rono has fine chance to- get one
of these fights" said prominent
sporting man this morning.
81 believe that with & proper on
ganization to handle the matter
that the sum of $4,000 or $15,-
600 can be raised to swing the
proposition and that the bout
could be managed SO as to net a
handsome profit to the men be-
hind it.
"The railroads would be glad to
offer low rates fer the California
sports and the fact that Reno is
several hundred miles from the
Coast would not reduce the at
tendance because the people who
go to prize fights do not stand
back on paying a few dollars for
car fare.'
"Neyada alone would supply
several thousand spectators for the
towns of Carson, Virginia, Tono-
pah and Goldfeld are filled with
sporting men who would be GER
tain to come here for the event.
The sporting men of the place
certainly have chance to show
their hands in the matter.
In the event the fight is pulled
off here an immense amphitheatre
will be built east of the city, which
could be used for other contests
should they be giyen.--Gakette.

A MIRACLE OF MILLIONS
In Which a Group of Frenzied Finan.
ciers Were Once Persuaded to
Relieve

Following is a marvel of finance set
forth by Mr.. Lawson in his story Of the
New England Gas and Coke in
the August installment Of "Frenzied
Finance" in E~verybody's Magazine:
In the transaction outlined to me, Mr..
Rogers, apparently, had ~religiously fol-
lowed his wellseasoned habit, but I could
not help gasping at the length and breadth
of his audacity. notwithstanding the
fact that all the stocks and bonds which
represented the ownership of the actual
gas companies of Boston had never sold
for as much as $14. 600, 900, he and Whitney
had hypnotized q set Of exceedingly smart
and able frenzied financiers into believing
that this city Of 100000 population could
pay interest and dividends on $35, OOo, 600 in
addition to the large amounts this deal
still left outstanding. It must be under
stood that the new organization In no way
disposed of our Bay State company with
Its far-f1ung obligations, and SO interest
had to be earned on its securities as we'll.
There had been inducements, Of course.
There are always douceurs in such deals
FOR the insiders. I soon learned that the
consideration prompting the Central Trust
compan to see the affair from the right
angl was a promise of 5000, 600 out of the
three and a half millions cash business
capital, together with a large block of the
stock for good measure. A slice of the
stock or cash went to each OF the eminent
gentlemen who hac lent his name to the
transaction. When I put together the diff
ferent bonuses-I had almost written
br1bes-in cash and stock, the stock alone
amounting to eight millions, I realized the
kind OF ~hypnotism hat had been~prac-
Eced.'
