LOVE SICK EXCURSIONISTS.
The SeacOast n Prolific Breeding
Ground for the Love Microbe.

The Corvallis Times gives the fol-
lowing account of sickening scenes on
an excursion train from Newport last
Sunday:
Love was smeared all over the car
on the return trip of the Newport ex-
cursion Sunday evening, says the
Times. About half a dozen couples
of 16 to IS summers forgot all about
the presence of other passengers and
yearned for each other with a yearn-
fulness that was positively pathetic.
One maiden and her beau of not
more than 19 summers each took
turns about sitting on each others
lap and leaning on each other, passing
swift kiss back and forth when they
thought the rest of the car was not
looking. Another fair-haired damsel
made the journey of 60 odd miles to
Corvallis on the lap and bosom of her
youthful beau Of not more than II
Still another with all the symptoms
of sick kitty, and in the utter aban-
don as to appearances, sat with heI
arms around the neck of her beau
while he, with an air of complacency
sat through the ordeal wholly undis-
turbed and apparently unaware of the
vulgar gaze of passengers unaccus-
toned to such affectionate exhibi-
tions.
In one seat he and she got to talk
ing baby talk to each other, which
seemed to be a sort of humming bird
courtship and the wall of two dying
calves.
An old codger stuck his head in the
rear door of the car and, after catch
ing glimpse of the situation. remark.

Just then the train ploughed into g

sound like a COW drawing her foot ou

RUSHING RIPARIA BRANCH.
o. II. & n. Has Trouble In Keeping
Laborers OH the Work.

Chief Engineer George w. Boschke,
of the o. r. & NJ, accompanied by
Charles Erickson of the general con-
tracing firm of Erickson & Peterson,
arrived here yesterday morning on the
Owl train from Spokane, says the
Lewiston Tribune.
When seen this morning Mr.. Bosch
Ike would not predict just how soon
the Riparia Lewiston extension would
be completed but hoped that the work
would be finished some time before
the first of the year. He expressed
himself as well pleased wit hthe prog
ress being made by the general con-
tractors, Erickson & Peterson.
He stated that the labor situation
was still critical and that it was almost
impossible to keep men at work on
the Riparia line during the hot
weather. He stated that he was send
ing out about 100 men per day, but
that very small percentage would go
to work, preferring to try the harvest
fields.
Yesterday morning Messrs. Eriek-
son, Peterson and Boeschke inspected
the Clearwater river at the pier sites
to determine the stage of water and
they seemed to feel that work on the
bridge could be resumed at an early
date. The party, including Engineer
Eastman of Almota, left yesterday
morning in small boat down the
Snake river with a view of inspecting
the work along the line. On reaching
ID pino rio tbay will hoard Mr. ROSChke'
private car and go to the Elgin branch
| to inspect the work now under way a
that point.

Discia" Alfalfa Field,

The Deseret Farmer states that 1t is
a good plan to disc an alfalfa field
thoroughly after the first crop of hay
is cut and follow the disc with the
smoothing harrow. A field of alfalfa
which was thoroughly disced and
narrowed early in the spring has thi:
year yielded twenty-five per cent
more hay without irrigation than 6
field alongside which was irrigated
three times. Excessive irrigation car.
ries much valuable food plant out o.
the reach of the crops and for this anC

vises farmers to cultivate more and ir

REPAIRING THE ROAD.
Travel shorter, Easier and Safer to
Bingham Springs.

The work of repairing the road be-
tween Bingham Springs station and
the resort is now progressing rapidly,
and by the end of the week it is said
all of the bridges now under con-
struction will be ready for use. Sew
eral crews are now at work upon
them and several are nearly finished.
When the bridges are completed the
ride from the springs to the station
will be made much more pleasant, as
it will do away with several rocky
fords and also lessen the distance to
the springs by three-quarters of a
mile.
Bingham is Popular.
The Bingham Springs resort is en-
joying a larger patronage than last
year as many who are now there took
their outings at the coast last year,

Disastrous Gulf Storm.

One OF the severest storms that has
prevailed in the Gulf of Mexico for
many years occurred on Thursday of
last week, the 9th of September, re-
sulting in much property damage
ahoat and ashore, and considerable
loss OF life.
The brnnt of the storm was felt at
Pensacola, Mobile and points ada
cent to those cities, and the havoc
wrought to Wharves, shipping and
other property along the water fronts
was very great. The government
forts at the entrances to Pensacola
harbor and Mobile bay were virtually
demolished, several lighthouses were
damaged and in one instance the
structure was swept away with the
keeper and his family. The number
OF lives lost in the vicinity Of Mobile
is estimated at more than one hundred,
and the number around Pensacola at
about seventyfve. while the property
destruction at the Alabama city is
reckoned as high as ten millions of
dollars, and that in Pensacola and
vicinity at five millions or more.
With characteristic American pluck
and energy the people of the two cities
have gone to work to repair the dam
age caused by the storm. Debris is
being cleared away, many contracts
for rebuilding wharves, mills, etc,
have already been closed, and it is
announced that the new work will
greatly augment the attractive appear
anee and material values OF both
Mobile and Pensacola. Thus are
misfortunes robbed Of their terrors
and transformed into ultimate ad-
vantages.

Just after the foregoing article had
been written-in fact, before the con-
Guiding paragraph was completed, the
daily newspapers printed accounts of
the holding OF a large mass meeting
Of white people at Monroe last Tues
day night to counteract the INJURIOUS
effects OF what seems to have been d
premature and unauthorized attempt
to carry the Ku-Klux idea into execu-
ton. Threatening notices were posted
on the dwellings of some of the most
industrious and law abiding colored
residents of the community, and threat
enlng letters we're sent them through
the mails, producing a state of alarm
that promised to eliminate in a gen.
eral exodus OF the negro population.
A number Of the leading citizens of
Monroe addressed the meeting, and
the tenor of all the speeches was in
accord with the opening remarks OF
Col. T. P. Stubbs, the chairman, who
said the object Of the gathering was
ito assure the good negroes that no
harm should be done them; that the
Industrious, law abiding negroes would
be protected, and that what the white
people demanded of them was to as
sist in ferreting out crimes the worth
less of their race would commit and
to help in bringing them to justice;
that the best element of white people
would see TO it that the irresponsible
parties who had posted the notices
and sent the threatening letters should
not harm the good negroes. -
Il is quite safe to assume, we think,
that the injudicious movement for the
revival of the Ku-Klux Khan in Mon
roe will die a-borning.

of the leaders turned out this year
are equipped with gasoline engines,
