HIS TIME HAD COME.
Success Magazine.)

1t is one of the amiable traditions
of the senate of the United States that
no senator shall make a set speech till
he has served a year or longer Old
senators are very impatient of the as
sumption of Importance by newcomers.
The late George Z. Edmunds of Yer
mont once allowed il to be understood
that he would soon retire from public
life. Idaho had just been admitted as
a state, with the privilege of electing
senators, the one for a long term and
the other for a short term. A Mr.. Nc
Connell drew the short term. and.
having but two months to serve, pro-
ceeded to make the best of it. The day
after he had been sworn in he took up
a position in the middle aisle and, in a
fog-horn voice, made his speech.
While he was holding the fort Mr..
Edmunds entered the chamber. He
stopped short and gazed at the speaker
with the utmost establishment Then
he made his way to his seat. and, lean
ing over to the senator next to him
asked: who is that person."
"A senator from Idaho"
You don't say so! When did he

COUNTY DELEGATES NAMED
Cache County Commissioners Ap-
point Delegates to Irrigation
Congress at Boise.

Logan. Aug 22-The county commits
siOners have named the following dele
gates to the Irrigation congress to be
held at Boise: Joseph G. Knowles, 1. c.
Thoresen, ID. NJ. Campbell and John A
McAlister.
The Cache Valley Tea & Soda Water
company has filed its articles of incor-
poration with the county clerk. The cor
poration is capitalized at $4,000, and
shares are of the face value of $40 each.
The big storm that has prevailed in this
county for the past four days shows
signs of clearing up, to the relief of peo-
pie here. for the drenching the county
has received has done no end of damage.
Harvesting was in full blast. and with so
much grain down, the rain simply played
havoc. Farmers say that this grain will
sprout in the shock and that the stacked
wheat will be largely spoiled. For three
| days the rain simply came down in
sheets, soaking everything out of doors.
| The loss falls particularly heavy upon
Cache farmers, whose hopes for a rec
ord-breaking wheat crop were destroyed
by the appearance OF rust in nearly all
the spring grain, short time ago. Humid
reds of acres were cut green in order that
it might be utilized for fodder and now
the prospect is that large proportion
OF the dry farm grain will be destroyed
by the storm.
Politicians here are wondering what Of
/ feet the selection of James T. Hammond
as chairman of the Republican state
committee Is going TO have on Joseph
HowelTs chances. In the early part Of mis-
/ political career Howell found good
/ friend in Hammond. and didn't hesitate
/ TO use the latter's services to further his
/ political ends. but when Hammond was In
| the race for governor, Howell worked
/ with might and main to defeat him in
/ this county. and packed the delegation to
/ the state convention in favor of Cutler
/ Whether or not Hammond will keep these
| for the party is a question that is puZ-
cling some of the Howell push.

struments are given FREE with each

tire course, including instruments and
medicines to complete a cure, is SIS
only. Remember this does not mean
SIS a month, but SIS for a cure. There
is no more treating by the month"

As to Tipping.

However disagreeable the tipping prac-
ttice may be to some people-and there
is! no doubt that 1t has come to be some
thing of a nuisance. 1t is certainly not.
a crime, and the criminal courts can
employ their time much more proftably
%disposing Of murders and highwaymen,
of which there is q super-abundance.
than by wasting 1t on Tipping cases.
1t is absurd to hold that IN accepting
tip the waiter or porter is rohhinE his
employer. Quite the contrary is the
case, as most employers of that class
of labor not only expect. but desire,
that there employees be tipped, MS 1t is
entirely at the expense of the public
Il probably obviates the necessity of
paying living wages on their part. The
mere attempt Of securing the passage
of a prohibitive law is Identifying the
practice much above It's deserts. 1t Is
a custom tina has a. strong hold on the
masses OF the people, and 1t Is uttely
absurd to imagine that 1t a be rooted,
out by legislation.

DEPLORABLE AFFAIR.

NEWCASTLE. VA. March i.-Everetts
Myers. while under the influence of whis-
key last Monday, raised a difficulty WITH
Yarnold Huffman. a boy about scventeeu
years old. Myers continued the abuss
for some time, finally striking at HUH
man, losing his balance, and pitched for.
ward on his hands, whereupon Huffman
struck at Myers with n piece of board.
making what appeared to be - slight
wound in the back of Myers.s head.
Myers was taken to his home on Walnut
Street, and but little more was thought
of the occurrence until yesterday. when
Myers was reported in a critical condi'
ton. and at 10 O'Clock he died.
Everett was a son OF Squire j. r..
Myers, OF this place. one OF she towns
oldest and most respected citizens. He
was the only son. and leaves a father,
mother, four sisters, a wife and ono
child, victims OF the sorrow and be-
reayemcnt brought on by this dcplorable
tragedy.
There has as yet been no arrest made.
The prevailing sentiment seems to be
that Huffman was justitiable In sinking
Myers, n especially that Huffman did
not intend the that fol-
lowed.
All parties connected with tho affair
have the sympathy of the entire CONF
munity, as it is generally believed that
iwh!skey was the direct cause OF tho
trouble.
Myers when sober. was quiet and in-
offensive; when drinking. was quarreisoms

Lafayette and America.

Marie Jean Paul Roch Yves Gilbert
Mortier. Marquis de Lafayette, was u
young French nobleman who, on hear
ing that America had declared indie
pendence of Great Britain, resolved to
come over and assist us in the struggle.
He was already an officer in the French
army, but obtained leave OF absence.
On his arrival in Philadelphia, then the
seat of government. in the summer of
177, congress voted him a commission
as major general, though he was not yet
twenty-one years of age. He rendered
distinguished service to the American
cause, especially Mt the battle of York
town. for which Washington publicly
thanked him the day after Carnwallis,
surrender. After his return to his native
land he took an important part in the
French revolution and the events which
followed. He returned to America In
1924 M was most enthusiastically re-
,ceived in each of the t%wenty-four states
and all the principal cities. Congress-
voted him $500. 900 and a township of
land in consideration of his former SER
Vices, his own fortune having been con-
tscated during the reign Of terrorist.

last Thursday and was one of the most
remarkable in the history OF the city.
Thomas was found lead In the East
End. with two wounds in his body. and
with a note pinned to his body, saying.

at Dayenport's door.
