The County Convention.

Oakley delegates, thirteen strong
went over to Albion to the
county convention on Saturday
last and participated in the pro-
ceedrngs, Unexpected and un-
asked honors came to them in
that Judge B. p. Howell was
made temporary chairman and
]. A. Ellison temporary secretary
These gentlemen acquitted them
selves so nobly in the rew NOM
ents at their disposal, that moth
ing would do the convent on
but tathey should continue to
serve as said officers, which they
did to the utmost satisfaction OF
all aOakley was declared entitled
to two delegates to the state
convention butjthere was SO much
good material in their represent
alton that they could hardly
choose between them SO they
sent up to the convention the
names of six choice men from
whom the convention was to
choose. These were John l..
Smith, George A Day, B. p.
Howells, H. c. Haight w. r.
Lee, A. M. Merrill.
The first four ran well, as the
ballots were fairly distributed
but the last two did not seem to
stand the ghost of a show.
TINS was due, probably to the
fact the delegates were not ac-
quainted with the many sterling
qualities OF the gentlemen,
coupled with the fact that they
could not get a good look at
them on account of the former
being hid up behind too many
whiskers and the latter
too much nose.
Homo ables Geo. A. Day and
B p. Howells were elected. The
o her delegates from the county
are, West, Lind and Chamberlain
IN - ~ - -
Derbyshire from Albion, Jones
from Almo, Reed, Burley.
The proceedings of sthe con-
vention went off, contrary to
expectations without hitch.
1t was decided to hold the
County Nomination convention
at Twin Falls.

Now my friends, it seems tome
that the woman is the equal of

doctrine; YOU are married; try to

Whoever married simply for him

HE SMOKES.

In the office, IN the parlor,
In the faces Of the pasSerS
On the Sidewalh, on the street;
In the eyes Of those he meets,
In the Uestibale the depot,
At the theatre or ball.;
Fen at funerals and 0eddings,
And at ch,iStenings and all.
Signs may threaten, men mag ,oarn him, G
Babies cry and aoomon coar;
But he cares not one iotd
For he calmly smokes,
oh, he cares not whom he strangles,
Veres, puts to flight, provokes:
And although they Skirm and Jfdget,
He Just smokes and smokes and smokes.
Not place rs sacred to him;
Churchyards mhere the fovers bloom.

And s0hen once he quits this munddne sphere,

When he reaches his destination
Finds tbs not a dream or hoar,
And the Judge deals ont his sentence,
Then I'll vager that he smokes.

 He says that he was walked up by q train of cars early Wednesday morning and found himself in strange city and completely bewildered. Upon inquiry he found that he was in Warren, dis. tance of twenty miles from home. He must have got up in his sleep and wandered afoot all the way to that city without waking. He immediately started for home up the Baltimore and Ohio railroad track afoot- as he was without money.
 He walked the track to within a short distance of his home and then cut across lots for the house. 1t was now after dark of Wednesday evening, and he had to pass through piece of woods. in which he became lost and wandered about all night and nearly all day Thursday. bewildered and un- able to find his way out.

BIRDS COMPETE
 WITH PREACHER
Fifteen Hundred Spa.rows Chatter Con- stantIy ip Quaker City
 Church.

IL Is net every church that can have a bird chorus ,n addition 10 its regular choir and its congregational singing While it cannot be said that Bethany temple, at Fifty fourth and Spruce streets, Philadelphia, enjoys this dis tinction, yet it is true nevertheless that tbe services are accompan nied by the singing of l,500 English sparrows
 Ii was while ihe windows were be ing put in place and after the roof had been completed that the birds made their lngress to the church. Tue work men paid little attention to them. thinking they would go out as they came. huf the birds are stiil there, and their presence causes no little worI ment to tue officers of tue church.
 They nest up on the big joists that brace tic roof and during he day fly about tue cburcb. keeping up a contnu al twitter
 Were It not necessary to open the windows occasionally to yeutliate the edifiee 1he birds might be starved out. But this seems to be impossible, livery time q window is opened twenty or thirty fly out and go ia search of food If tue windows are all closed when they return they wait another opportu- l nifty to re-enter.
 Evening services are never disturb ed, for the birds have then gone to nest. and the church singing evidently does not arouse them. 1t Is while prayer is being offered or sermon preached that the real annoyance comes. The speaker has to talk continuously | against q twitterins chorus.

GEN. TOLEDO NEARING
CITY OF GUATEMALA.
Gaid to Have Encountered No Resist
 ance in Three Days March.

Mexico City, June 29.-News from Salvador, respecting the revolution in Guatemala, is that Gen. Toledo has advanced into the country without encountering any resistance during three days march. It is believed he is now near or at the city of Qua temala. A large number of govern ment troops have deserted to him. The government commander of the forces at Escatempa had to resort to the severest measures to prevent his troops disbanding and shot group of deserters, an action which caused a sensation in that town,
 All news from Guatemala is censor ed so that nothing is allowed to pass which is not friendly 10 the sovern- ment.
 Along the Mexico frontier business fs demoralized since merchants on both sides of the line do not care to risk their goods falling into the hands of the revolutionists.
 Some reyolutionists who were be- ing pursued by the government troops fled across the line and took refuge in Hacienda San Vicenti. half league within Mexican territory. Nothing is known of the movement of Col. Pinda's forces and the Qua temala government maintains abso- lute silence as to the opera'ioas oi this revolutionary uhleftaln.
 The capture ot Ayutla in northern Guatemala by the revolutionlsts IS confirmed, though t is not known Ii ttey are still in possession. The gov ernment at first denied that sAYuea had been taken.

How to Rest.

To understand how to rest is of more
Importance than to know how to work
The latter can be learned easily. The
former it takes years to learn, and some
people never learn the art of resting
1t is simply a change of scenes and ac-
tivities. Loafng may not be resting;
sleeping is not always resting; sitting
down for days; with nothing to do, is
not restful. A change is needed to
bring into play different set of facul-
ties and to turn the life into a new
channel. The man who works hard
finds his best rest in playing hard; the
man who is burdened with care finds
relief in something that is active, yet
free from responsibility. Above all,
keep good natured and don't abuse
your best friend, the stomach.

Sulphur is solid, nonmetallic min
eral which has been known from earli-
est ages. 1t is hard, yellow and brittle
and has a most offensive odor. 1t Is
found in veins or beds, mostly near
active volcanoes. The imported sui
phur mostly comes from Solfatia, in
Sicily, but large quantities are also pro-
cured from copper and iron pyrites.
These minerals are heated, and the sui
phur being volatile flies off in fumes,
which are conveyed by means Of pipes
to condensing room. If left in the
powdery state in which 1t condenses
it is called -four Of sulphur. If melted
and cast into bars it is called roll sui
