merce and the stockholders of the COM
pany are those who have subscribed

ers on the Upper Columbia, says the

the heavy fall traffic. It will cost
about $4,000. The boat will be about
100 feet in length with 24-foot beam.
IN ordinary water 1t will carry about
$50 tons OF freight and when there is
sufficient depth the steamer will carry
about 500 tons. It will be SO construct
ed that 1t will be enabled to ply be-
tween Cello and Lewiston at almost
any stage OF the water.

OF ChautauQua.
In the evening one of the largest
audiences ever gathered in the audi
torium on the Chautauqua grounds
came to hear the Skoovegaard Con-
cert company and see the Robertson
moving pictures and hear the Robert
son entertainers. w. |. Nolen. the
funny man" from Minneapolis, was
also a great attraction and gave one
of his clever funny sketches. He is
very amusing. MIR. Nolan said himself
last evening he believed he now pos
sessed all the combined characteris-
tics of Bill Nye. Sarah Bernhardt and
serious face and philosophical turn
of mind. Sarah Bernhardt's sinuoly
grace. and emotional nature and the
car of Russia's big family. Nolen
is possessed of eight young daughters
and consequently he said he had trou-
bles of his own.
n. L. Baker with the Robertson en-
tertainers. rendered bass solos, comic
songs and approximations. Mr.. Baker
is especially pleasing to a Chautauqua
audience. being able to please all
classes alike.
The Robertson company moving
pictures were splendid. but are so we'll
known mention need hardly be made.
Some new features are added at each
performance and no picture is re-
peated. This year they are better
than ever before and are the greatest
acquisition to the program this sea-
son.
Late Saturday evening the trains
brought in an additional large crowd
coming to stay over the Sabbath. The
hotel would not by any means ac-
commodate the people and the trains
were obliged to run until very late
hour carrying many of them back to
the city to find lodging. Many slept
out in the open on the lawn in the
auditorium and on the band stand
wrapped in blankets and overcoats.
The temperature was away down and
Sunday dawned even colder. Fires
were made where they could be and
stoves were erected in the hoted,
around which the chilly people lowered
all day. The usual Chautauqua Sab
bath services were held in the morn
ing in the auditorium with Sabbath
school following. Sacred concert by
the band. In the afternoon Miss Mary
Brookings of Minneapolis, of the
Christian Science board of lectureship
of the First Christ's Scientist church
of Boston, addressed large audience
in the auditorium. Miss Brookings
is clever speaker and took for her
subject THE Christian Science Re-
ligion," giving clear logical explain
alton of the theory on which Christian
Science religion is founded.
In the evening there was grand
sacred concert, the finest ever listened
to on the ChautauQua grounds, given
by the various talent here. The

SATURDAY.
Scandinavian Day at the Chautauqua.'

Scandinavian Day ut the Cllnntauqua.'
Saturday Scandinavian day. at the
Chautauqua dawned cold and cheer
ess, nor did Old Sol appear all that
lay or on Sunday. Notwithstanding
he chilliness of the atmosphere the
attendance averaged up we'll. Many
prominent Scandinavians coming
across country from Eddy county.
Sheyenne and New Rockford were
especially we'll represented. The Bot
.ineau excursion arrived toward noon
and brought good crowd. All towns
along that line were we'll represented.
The morning was given as usual to the
class exercises. bible study, athletics
and the usual band concert by the
Minot high school band. The attrac-
ton of the day was Hon B. 3. Haugen
Of Minneapolis. editor of the Eor. Ted
Of that city and a prominent Scandin-
avian lecturer. His lecture The His
tory of Scandinavian immigration to
the United States" delivered in the
Norwegian language was listened to
by good audience of his fellow
countrymen. Some dissatisfaction
was expressed at the lecture being
delivered in a foreign language as it
was thought but few of the Scandin-
avians but would have understood
it in English. and the English people
felt at loss at net being able to
understand what they felt would have
been highly instructive and inter-
esting discourse. Mr.. Haugen is
known as scholarly Scandinavian. a
great traveller. and speaker OF abil-
ity. Mr.. Thorson, Scandinavian at
tOrney of Rugby was prominent on the
grounds and in the auditorium in the
afternoon, delivered short address to
his countrymen and in few we'll
chosen words introduced the speaker
of the day, Mr.. Haugen. The Skoove-
gard Concert company, all of whom
are here now. comprising Skoovegard.
the great violinist. Miss Elenore o.
son, soprano-soloist. and Miss Chris
tene Nelson, pianist. rendered a
highly enjoyable musical program
consisting of violin solos by Skooy-
gard, of the great Scandinavian mas
tiers and folk lore songs and instru-
mental selections by the two ladies.
They were all encored again and
again and most graciously responded.

to the light. and pour slowly into the
decanter until the sediment begins to
move. Wines that may need decant-
ing are claret. Sautern, port, MADEIRA
and sherry. If a variety of wines are
to be used very little of each is re-
quired.
Etiquette Of the yvtnc Glass.
According to California expert in
wines. claret glasses that are used
for all still wines should have a we'll
rounded bell without any ornamental
ton. The glass should be thin and
clear that the eye may rest undis-
turbed on the bright, attractive color
of the wine. White wines should be
served In glasses Of the same shape
as the red but with tinge of green
in the color, because green added to
the yellow gives the wine an impress
sion of body and richness. A sherry
glass should be diamond shaped to
show off the beautiful amber color
and oily, nutty quality. Red wines,
such as port, should be served in
round glass in keeping with the full
ness of the wine. Champagne should
be served in no glass but the hand

TaRS That Keeps.
Dear Mrs. Telford:
Would kindly ask you to answer how
to make cocoanut taffy that is chevy
after getting hard, and would keep to
take away to the country. Thanking
you In advance, yours truly,
Constant Reader.
C0cOanut Taffy.
Put three ounces of butter in a bowl
of ice water and wash and work until
the butter is elastic and the salt re-
moved. Put into granite saucepan
and, when melted, add a pound of
brown sugar and cook until it reaches
the crack stage when dropped in cold
water. You can begin trying when it
has boiled ten minutes. Have ready
pint of shaved cocoanut that has
been dried for an hour near the fire
and add to the taffy. Take from the
fire and turn the mixture into shallow
creased pans to cool. When nearly
cold mark into squares or bars.

In serving wines for formal dinner
there is much variation OF ideas. AS
a rule nowadays champagne, though
strictly speaking an after dinner wine,
is used any time after soup. There is,
however, logical sequence in the
service of wines that may be followed.
With the first course, il oysters or

Moselle. After the soup yellow

Sautern or Rhine. With roasts and
game. a sparkling red wine-Claret,
Burgundy or Hiawatha.
With dessert a sweet wine. Tokay or
champagne.
With the coffee. brandy or cordials.
The champagne should be very cold
and dry. Extra Dry" champagne can
not he too cold :the nearer to frappe
the better. 1t should stand an hour
and a half on the ice before serving.
Clarets and Burgundys should be the
temperature of the dining room, 62 TO
60 deg. Let them stand on the
mantel number of hours before serv-
ing. White wines should be cooled,
but not thoroughly chilled-4O to 30
degrees. Sherry and port should not
be too cold for they cloud if chilled
All old wines, with sediment, should
be decanted. Stand the bottles up

of a suitable location. The first camp
meeting was held at Spiritwood lake.

We're considered for establishing a
Chautauqua similar to the Chautauqua
institution on Chautauqua lake in the
state of New York. The object of
which. as stated in the constitution,
was for holding Chautauqua associa-
ton. and for the general promo
ton of religious scientific and educa-
tional interests entirely undenomina
tional. This location-the shores of
Devils Lake-was selected in Septem-
Der. 1892.
