Selections Under Carey Act Nav
Now Proceed.
Washington, May S.-The secretary
Of the interior has dismissed the ap-
peal of the Yakima Development Com
pany against the state Of WsshinRton's
selection Of lands under the Carey act
in the lower Yakima valley.
The way is now cleared for drawing

lands in question to the state.
The decision involves $1,000 acres
Of land. The federal reclamation ser
vice has declared that it will be i'm
practicable to carry out the federal ir.
rigation scheme in the Yakima valley
if these lands are given to the state,
but 1t is declared by state officials in
terested in the matter that only IL, 1000

When Gran pa Was a Boy.

When Gran'pa Was a Boy.
The world was just n big playhouse,
When Gran pa was boy,
An every day a picnic time,
With no work to annoy:
In those old times when he was young.
The sun was always bright;
An mothers never called from play
Because twas getting night.
! guess the man what 'scovered work
Want born yet. in that day,
And everybody lived to eat
An just forever play;
Old aunts. | s'pose. were not about
To poster every one.
An scream. Now. John. he keerful. hoy
Jist put away that gun
They had no kindergartens then
TO ketch kid so young.
An make him spell such fearful words
TO twist n feller's tongue.
The man that wrote the 'rithmetic
Had not yet hardly started
To make those tables that are fit
To make one broken-hparted.
They didn't have to comb their hair,
An keep their hands 80 clean.
An when a hoy ate twenty cakes
They didn't think him mean
| wish we weren't so civilized.
An just lived full o JOY.
AS everybody did way back
When Gran pa was boy.

DANENHAUER MAKES
 A HOME" RUN.
4 Member of the Bail Team Will Return
 With HOnOrS and a Bride,

When the Clifton ball team left last week on it's tour of conquest through Texas and New Mexico, Danenhauer, the noted left fielder, announced to few friends that no matter what luck might befall the team he would play for a "home run, I" and if he failed to win prize he would never return. In the Sunday game at Fl Paso he made a phenomenal record, but at Albuquerque he was nervous, and for the first time during the season he failed to make connec- tion with the home plate. He seemed to have lefthis luck in Fl Paso. In the Fridays game he became so dis couraged that he walked out in the middle of the game and left that night for Fl Paso. As he did not re- turn with the team Tuesday night, his friends were uneasy, fearing that he was taking his hard luck too se- riously. The following telegram re- ceived this morning, however ex- plains affairs, and clears up the mys- tery of his disappearance from Albu- querque, and also his nervousness and failure to return home with the team:
 FL PAso, Texas, Sept 2s, 1905 Paso. Texas, at the home of the brides parents, Miss Bertha Parker to Mat Danenhauer."
 The above announcement is the continuation of sincere regard which the bride and goom formed for each other several years ago when they were residing on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico. At that time they were too young to seriously consider matrimony. yet Cupid had pierced their hearts with his arrow of love, and they parted not as friends, but as as to the future. During the years which elapsed since then they kept faith each with the other, and the final link which binds their souls for eternity was welded at Fl Paso yes terday evening, after which they left on short honeymoon to the City of Mexico.
 For five years Mat Danenhauer has been connected with the ERA as fore man and assistant editor. He is one | of the most popular young men in Clifton, and has friends by the score | all over the southwest. The bride | is an adopted daughter of the Sunny l South, where she acquired the GUS toms and traits of characther which | have made the southern ladies so at tractive and popular everywhere. She combines the rare charms of personal beauty with cultured mind and sunny disposition.
 The ERA, on behalf of the office force, and the groom's many Clifton friends, extends its congratulations to the happy couple.

Carl Schade was the first man to cross the new wagon bridge on horse back, which occurred Sunday last. The approaches had not yet been completed. MT. Schade asked some of the boys on Gold avenue if the bridge was in shape to be crossed, and they answered in the affirmative, which was correct as far as the bridge was concerned. MT. Schade rode onto the bridge from the east side, and large crowd gathered, expecting to give him the horse laugh on his return, but Carl Schade never takes back trail. When he came to the end of the bridge he leaped his horse off and alighted on the railroad track several feet below with as much unconcern as if it were an everyday occurrence. Carl had the laugh on the boys that time.
