Beauty.

The finest compliment, perhaps,
ever paid to woman's beauty was
by a wild Irishman when he saw
Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire,
one hundred and twenty years ago.
Il could light my pipe at her
eyes," he said, and that exhausts
the subject. Allthe studied efforts
made to portray female beauty are
nothing to that impromptu remark.
1t has but eight words, but those
words move the previous question,
and shut off debate. 1t not only
fixed the status of the lady's beauty
then, but for all succeeding time.
Death itself could not close those
eyes. They shine down upon us
through history as the eyes that ga
pipe might be lighted at."-Good-
WINS Weekly.

Old INDIAN PIPE LORE.
Pretty Sentiment Displayed In the
Markings of Some of Early
Times.

1t need scarcely be told that in
the pipes of long ago each feather
appended to the stem represented
an enemy slain. If one doubted
the record of the war eagle feath-
ers the warrior then showed the
scaIps of the enemy, which were
kept as a sort of sacred proof of
his word. Such pipes were used
only ON occasions of peace and
war. Speaking roughly, says Out
ing, the best pipes of eastern
tribes were in nodded clay, the
best of the western tribes in slate
pipestone taken from the famous
quarry west of the Mississippi.
Before the great buffalo and ante
lope hunts, when herds of game
were driven into a pound or in
closed area of snares, it was Gus
tomary for the Indians to Whit
the incense of Precipitation to the
spirits of the animals about to be
slain, explaining that only the de-
sire for food compelled the Indi-
ans to kill and that the hunt was
the will of the Master of Life, or
"Master of the Roaring Winds"
who would compensate the ami
mails in the next world. The pipes
used for this ceremony usually
show the figure of an animal. 9th
ers show the figures of Indians
with locked hands. This typifies
vow of friendship to be termin-
ated only by death. 1t was usu-
ally between men, but sometimes
between a man and a woman, in
which case the platonic bond not
only precluded but forbade the
very possibility of marriage.
After that who shall say that thu.
stOlid Indian has no vein of senti-
ment in his nature?
One of the most curious pipes
] have seen l bought from a Cree
on a reservation east of the refu-
gee Sioux. 1t is in the shape of a
war Ratchet of a metal which |
do not know, though | suspect it is
galena mixed with clay, the edge
being sharp enough, but the back
of the ak being a bowl and the
handle pipe stem. The odd lines
in Indian carvings and woven
work are not without meaning.
Fighting Mistah could read a le-
gend where we saw nothing but
bizarre markings. There were the
circular lines, hollow down. mean
ing clouds; the Oss, meaning the
coming of the priest; the tree, a
type of peace, with its branches
overshadowing the nations; the
wavy line, signifying water; the
arrow, war. The ordinary Indian
can read a tribal song or chronicle
from obscure drawings on the face
of rock or crazy coIored work
on a scraped buffalo skin.

The stores are now beginning to make

speculative character, but is based
upon the urgent and growing use
Of the red metal in industrial circles
throughout the world; and this de
mand is not transitory, but will
continue, and only partially sup
piled, for many years to come.
The consumption Of copper along
industrial lines is largely account
ed for by its extensive and almost
limitless use in the application Of
electricity, which has made it pos
siDle to supply electric light and
power at prices which consumers
can afford to pay. The application
of electricity as power has almost
revolutionized many industries
throughout the world, and its use
has hardly begun as yet In time
the use Of electricity will almost
displace the steam locomotive on
the transcontinental railroads OF
the United States. For years the
elevated railroads Of New York de-
pended upon steam for power, but
of late traffic has increased to such
an extent that the locomotive was
unable to handle it, and now these
roads use electricity for power most
successfully and at lower cost.
In some circles it is claimed that it
is not more railroads that arc want
ed and needed, but better facilities
and lower cost Of operation. and
that operation by electricity is the
solution of the problem.
This wonderfully increased use
Of electricity depends almost solely
upon one important factor, and
this is the supply of copper. The
demand for this supply is what is
sending copper quotations soaring
skyward, and there is no telling
what prices the red metal may COM
mand in the future. And for this
reason copper has attained sound
and substantial basis. 1t is for
such reason that there is an ever
growing demand for copper proper
ties and for good copper stocks
The demand for copper just now is
small to what it will be five years
from now, and those possessing a
copper mine productive of payable
ore, or stocks in good copper mining
companies, can rest assured that
their investments are along right
lines. and that the future has some
thing most pleasant in store for
them.-Mining Review.

Inc annual meeting OF the Ida
no State Teachers Association
for the year 1906 will meet at
Boise, December 1929. Great
preparations are being made for
good meeting. DR.. A. E. Win
ship, editor Of the New England
School Journal, Boston, Massa-
chusetts, has been secured, at
considerable expense, to deliver
three addresses and one popular
lecture. Some one has said that
a breath Of New England air is
better than a draught OF old
highlands ale. Dr. Winship will
bring across the continent some
of this New England air.
Superintendent Siders in a pri-
waite letter says, "You are GER
tainly to be congratulated on Sc
curing Winship. He is a strong
man."
President Faris says, 81 look
upon him as one of the greatest
public school men in the United
States"
Equally strong words OF com
mendation have been received
from other prominent school
men of the state. There is no
question that DR.. Winship will
be great aid and inspiration.
Can you afford to miss him?
In addition to Dir. Winship
there willappear on the program,
President Mclean OF the State
University, President Black of
the Lewiston State Normal
School, Superintendent William
son OF Boise, Superintendent ST.
ders OF Pocatello, Superintendent
Lee OF Wallace, State Superin-
tendent Mrs. May L.Scott Worth
man, State superintendent Elect,
Miss Belle Chamberlain, and
many others of the best talent
that the State affords.
For the rural teachers a special
section has been organized in
which will be discussed topics of
interest to rural teachers. We
believe that the rural teachers
will find this particularly helpful.
The Executive Committee, be-
lieving that a strong program
would attract many teachers,
has run the risk of running be-
hind financially on account OF
the expenses incurred, but is con-
fdent that the teachers of Idaho
will show their appreciation by
enrolling in greater numbers than
ever before.
Come to Boise for the three
days of the Association; get i'll
touch with the educational work
Of the state and nation; visit the
Capitol, the Soldiers Home and
the Penitentiary; 60 to the Ma
tatorium and battle in the great
pool; get away from home and
in touch with the world. 1t will
make a better teacher you and
will mean enthusiasm and etfici
ency in your work and money III
your pockets, for you certainly
will be able to teach a better
school, and better work mean,

BOMB EXPLODED IN
FRONT Of CAFE

ROME, Nov. IA bomb was ex-
ploded in front of the Cafe Aragno, in
the center of the city, today The
fashionable throngs at the cafe were
thrown into confusion and one man
was seriously wounded. The perpe-
traitor of the deed was not appre-
hended.
At the time of the explosion the cafe
was filled with fashionable people, and
the Corso was crowded with the reg
ular afternoon promenaders. double
line of carriages stretched in front of
the place. Immediately after the ex-
piosion a thick cloud of smoke filed
the air and there was a strong odor of
chemicals.
The people in and about the cafe
were panic-stricken. They made fran
tic efforts to escape, in the fear that
the ceilings and walls of the cafe were
about to collapse, and tables and
chairs were overthrow in the mad
scramble to get away Women
screamed and tainted. The large plate
glass windows of the cafe were shat
tered.
In speaking of the occurrence one of
about 25 years old come to the cafe
and take seat at a table outside He
carried a handbag, which was partially
concealed by a light overcoat on hts
arm. He deposited the handbag and
his coat on chair at his side and or
dered something to drink Before the
waiter served him the young man sud-
denly rose and, saying Il have for
gotten something" hurried away, leav-
ing his handbag and overcoat behind
This sudden disappearance caused
suspicion, and young man who had
been sitting near the stranger sprang
to his feet and cried Bomb, Bomb.''
This warning. however, was too late
to give the crowd time to get away.
for the explosion came on the heels Of
his last word.
The neighborhood of the cafe was
Immediately occupied by police. The
wounded man is Guideo Morini who
returned here two weeks ago from New
York. He was taken to a hospital, and
probably will be all right in a fort

DUNNIGAN MURDER
CASE DROPPED

The information charging. John Fran
els Dunnigan with the murder of Po-
liceslan ]. S. Cook. who was shot while
attempting to make an arrest at the
corner of Seventh and Brannan streets
on the night of August % and died
from his wounds at the Scobie Hospital
on September 5, was yesterday dis
missed by Judge Lawlor after the pris-
oner had been ordered released on a
writ of habeas corpus argued before
Judge Murasky yesterday morning.
When the habeas corpus matter came
UP for hearing yesterday before Judge
Murasky it was found that practically
the only evidence against Dunnigan
was the deathbed statement of Cook,
which was neither positive nor COM
plete enough in detail to warrant a
trial, according to Judge Murasky's
decision. Murasky discharged the pris-
oner under the writ and Judge Lawlor
at once dismissed the information.
