LIMITED" will be put into service
March 1st. via the Southern Pacific
between San Francisco and Los Angeles
The train will be operated daily, leav-
ing San Francisco at 900 a. m. and ar
irving at Los Angles at 1890 p. m.
The same schedule will prevail for the
return trip, leaving Los Angeles at 900
a. m. daily.
This service will continue through the

stop-overs at principal coast resorts and
cities The equipment of the SHORE
LINE LIMITED will be entirely new
and first class and will consist of one
baggage car, two parlor cars, one diner,
one observation car. The operation Of
this new train is made necessary be-
cause of the great influx of visitors in

during the coming summer than ever
before. The Southern Pacific Company
has spent hundreds of thousands Of
dollars In exploiting the Pacific Coast
Country in Eastern magazines during
the last few years. and has issued /
beautiful booklet entitled. THE Roat
of Thousand Wonders" which en-
tertainingly describes In words ant
picturs the beauties and wonders o

New Hospital for 0. S. l. Employees

Division Surgeon w. A. Wright of
the Idaho and Montana divisions Of the
Short Line at this point, returned Mon
day from Salt Lake City, having spent
a day or two there on matters in con-
nection with the transfer of Short Line
patients to the new L. d. s. hospital.
He was in consultation with Chief Sur
geon Pinkerton and the other doctors
in charge of Short Line medical mat
ters, and he says the actual transfer of
patients from ST Marks to the L. D. s.
hospital has already been made. He
says that in most respects the change
will be for the benefit of the patients
He Gays the chief surgeon has arranged
for the entire fourth floor of the hospi-
tai for the nse of the Short Line and
he says the L. D. S. new hospital Is the
finest of its size and kind in the wes,.
The ward for the railroad men will
contain only three beds instead of as
high as twenty as heretofore. In addi
tion to these wards there will be nine
private rooms each of which has an ele
giant private bath and the rooms being
furnished in solid mahogany. The hos
pital itself is finished in Italian marble
The purposes of the Short Line in max
ing the change, the doctor thinks. is t,
give the men better service on accoun
of the new, up-todate appointments o
this new. modern hospital. The rail
road service will be entirely segregate
from the balance OF the hospital. Al
the old staff will go to the new hospits
with the exception of DIR. Worthingtor
who remains at st. Marks. DIR. Pinl
erton will he the chief surgeon j
charge and his assistants will he D.

Statesman VS.. Examiner.

The Statesman quotes the Montpelier
Examiners strong editorial on the con-
vention nomination of senator and says:
ut is not to be assumed, that any re-
publican big enough to be considered in
connection with the United States sena-
torship would oppose or fail to actively
support a rival who had been nominated
in convention. That is something that
is not to be feared. No man who had
submitted his claims to convention
and been beaten would bolt the ticket
OF act in such manner that his loyalty
to the ticket could be called in question.
Among the class of men who aspire to
such an exalted position there Is sense
of political honor"
But the Statesman passes oyer the
salient points brought ont by the Mont
pelier paper and declares faith in the
honor of politicians that the World
would like to see it extend to the aver
age citizen. 1t would be most agreeable
If we conld develop senatorial candi-
dates in Idaho who when defeated
would work as hard for other mems ad-
yancement as for their own but we are
not prepared to say that such men en-
bellish the state at present. Perhaps
without undertaking to do so, the
Statesman places Idaho's prominent
men in class distinct from those who.
from the sons of Adam down to the
present, have pursued ambition. The
men of Idaho are perfected in the fine
art of chivalry, and, with rare excep
lions haye accepted defeat gracefully,
but instances are difficult to recall
wherein they have been able to transfer
the enthusiasm of their friends to other
men.
The Examiner takes the position that
convention nomination of Senator
would work injury TO the Legislative
ticket in close counties and invite dis
aster in counties where the majority fol
party would be pronounced unde
normal conditions. Does the Statesman
see no logic in that. Washington coun
ty is republican. It's people desire t
have republican succeed Senator Du
bois-but it realizes that if the republi
can party dominates senator IN cor
vention, no matter how strong the mar
that Dubois will stand an exceller
chance of securing the legislative tick'
in Washington county.
The World will discuss the princlp
of convention nomination as soon as
can discover that there is principle il
volved. In the meantime it will col
tinue in the belief that, neither in I'll
naming of senatorial candidate
convention, or in election through I'll
legislature, are the people invested wit
ultimate power and the Weiser Worl
will uphold the Boise Statesman, al
all men and agencies, whenever tn,

With the girl at the telephone.
So rang the bell but couldn't tell
For my head 1t spun around
Her answer made me think at once
A very nice girl I'd found.
What is your name my little dear?
Miss jensen" Oh, thank you Miss
She said she thought her mama would,
When asked her for a kiss.
I thought, of course I'd made mash,
And soon would see the parson,
But when I spoke to her again,
She said she was Miss Larsen,
Then Miss Belinda said, ''How do you do,
am a very sweet young lass;
Ny middle name is feeling blue
And my last names gone to grass.

But it might have been cough
For when spoke to her again,
She said, I'm Ruby Hof."

thought 1t would start raining girls
Down through the telephone.
And so ] went to the little book
That hung upon the wall,
And for their names thought I'd look
Just find them one and all.
So / spelled their names out one by one
Till my jaw was broke in splinters.
And there saw that blue grass girl
Was just Miss Lizzie Winters.
And still I read and read their names
Till could almost sing them,
When i turned 34-x around
1t spelled Miss Nora Bingham.
And still looked for one name more
But that name they left of,
And though read them twenty times
l couldn't finG Ruby Hoff.
And then made fine resolve,
And Ill put 1t in frame,
I'll never talk to a telephone girl
Until know her name.

CUPID CoNQUERS PREJUDICE
Pretty Lily Springer Marries chauncey
YelloWrobe, Fullblooded
Sioux Indian
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
RAPID CITY, July 21.-A charming
little romance reached it's consumma-
tion Wednesday, when Rev. Mr.. Spar
ling, the Episcopal clergyman, united
in marriage Miss Lily B. Springer,
trained nurse at the Indian school, and
Chauncey Y. Robe, full-blooded
Sioux Indian, also employed at the
school.
Miss Springer is a charming young
American girl, of good parentage and
fine education. She comes from the
state of Washington and is "a years
old. Last August she entered the SER
vice at the Indian school, and it was
not long before onlookers could see
that she was distinctly attracted to the
young Sioux. No question of race or
caste seemed to interfere with her
choice, and in less than a year from
the time of their meeting the young
Indian and the fair skinned, blue-eyed
girl were made man and wife.
Robe, whose full name is Chauncey
Yellowrobe, went to Carlisle to school
when he was Is years old. Since that
time he has passed most of his life
among white people, and, though he
speaks with a slight accent, is almost
an Anglo-SaXon. He has the tall,
straight bearing of his Indian an
cestors, the dark skin, the high cheek
bones and the sharp, clear eyes. His
people are among the most orthodox
of the old-time Sioux, and his father,
mother and sisters adhere religiously
to the ancient and established customs
of their tribe.
II am not an Indian" said Robe,
as he and his wife were about to take
the train. 81 am an Australian"
He was hoping evidently to avert
the talk concerning his wife that nee
essarily would follow her marriage
with an Indian. They will return to
this city in few days and will take
up their work again in the school.
Robe is employed at the United
States Indian school as assistant dis
clplinarian and instructor in military
tactics and athletics.

Newspaper Correspondents Graphic Description Of Great
Suffering Of the Victims of Earthquake and Fire

refugee sought the soup kitchen, but
soon left IL, still tired but less hungry,
for the distressing odors and the half
musty food dispelled desire to eat, and
It was nearly an hour after | reached
my home before l felt my appetite re-
turn. There were prunes, beans, and
by a process of elimination, tea--tea he
cause IL responded to the test of no
other civilized beverage. The bread
and butter were fair, but IT required
courage even to sample the rest. one
mother next to me confided that she
could scarcely persuade herself to eat
the food, but that having large fam
lily and her husbands work being un-
certain, she could not afford to cook
all their meals in camp and must fall
back on the public restaurant occasion
ally.
Wandering out from the kitchen l
passed down the streets" of the bar
racks" and noted the long, low sheds
separated into little Cubbyhole apart
ments by rough board fences. In most
of these crude. rooms there was evil
dent desire to achieve a home at
mosphere, touchingly proved by odd
prints on the wall and other little
marks of feminine care. In the middle
of the streets wives and daughters
busted themselves over simple suppers,
y
sters played. some with no signs of
care, others revealing distinct maternal
attempts to battle with the camp dirt.
At my own camp most of the house
wives prepared their own suppers. In
fact, | had already discovered that
those who could manage at all avoided
resorting to the public kitchen, some
through a mere distaste for the meals,
but many others because they felt they
could be more independent in purchas-
ing their own edibles For though I
saw numbers who looked as if they
We're living better than ever before.
and many more who seemed determined
to grab up everything in the way of
relief, the general impression given by
these stricken people was of troubled
folk who were anxious to be as inde-
pendent as possible.
Numbers Not Followed
At ten the next morning | returned
for a fresh try at getting an order.
But no attention was paid to the num-
