SAVAGE OPERA COMPANY.

The Savage Grand Opera COM
pany will appear at the Spokane
theater Thursday, Friday and Sat
urday, Feb. %, 20 and "a. Mr..
Savage's opera companies, by their
we'll balanced and highly satisfac-
tory productions of Verdi's "Othel-
To-" Wagner's "Parsifal" and other
better known works in the past
TWO seasons, have made an envi-
able reputation for themselves.
This season his notable offerings
here will be the first productions
of Wagners great music-dramas
'Lohengrin" and "Tannhauser,"
that local music lovers have so
long been anxious to hear. We
are also promised a delightful va
riety in the opportunity to hear
Verdi's ravishingly beautiful "Rigo-
letto' and Gounod's Faust" both
representing the very best exam
pies of Italian and French grand
opera, as contrasted with the Ger
man school.
Mr. Savage has again included
this city in his annual tour be-
cause he feels that his efforts to
give opera in English on a metro
politan basis will meet with gen.
erous apprecia ton. He provides
the best available English singing
artists and allows no part of the
ensemble to suffer from a lack of
the requisite talent necessary to
secure well rounded and artistic
renderings of the operas in the
repertory. A striking instance of
the fact that he has not considered
economy before efficiency is found
in the composition of his orchestra
which consists of about so selected
symphony musicians. The operas
will be presented as follows:
Thursday evening, Feb. %, Wag-
ner's 'Lohengrin."
Friday evening, Feb. 23, Verdi's
"Rigoletto."
Saturday matinee. Feb. "a, Wag-
ner's "Tannhauser.
Saturday evening, Feb. "a, Gou-
mods Faust"

LEFT HIS RECORD
PENNED IN POETRY

Losing his job in the county
clerks Office II years ago caused
a we'll known merchant of North
Monroe street to drop into poetry.
He selected the outside of the back
cover of one of the court journals
as the place of lodgment OF his
muse, and to the canvas cover he
attached his poetry with red ink.
The inscription commentaries the
action of County Clerk w. E. Will
lis in superseding the poet, and is
as follows:
"Jan. IA, 1895.
1--WE part today, old friend, good
bye.
I fain would tarry, but it cannot be.
"Your leaves I've filled with many
tender lines,
The courts rebuked, exceptions,
contempt fines.
No more I'll scribble in you, good
or bad;
I leave you now, for that is Willis

Avon Got Gold Medal.

H. A. Axtell, one of the oldest
settlers of the Avon country, was in
Troy the first of the week and informed
the News that he too was the recipient
of a gold medal which he had Just
received from the management of the
Portland Exposition for sample OF
Red Sonora wheat grown on raw pine
land on Mr.. Axtelps farm at Avon.
The land was only cleared of pine
timber and brush recently and plowed
for the first time during the fall oil
1904, and sowed to wheat the following
spring. Only a small piece was put in
crop but the quality Of grain grown was
of grade that entitled it to a gold
medal and demonstrates the possibilities
of the thousands of acres Of pine land
available for cultivation in Latah county.
This fact once recognized and the
demand for pine lands will advance
with rapidity that will make those now
doing the knocking act" look a
whole lot worse than the much
lamented thirty cents.

Want the Road Opened.

R. P. Drury, postmaster at fancy,
was in Troy Saturday and reports good
crop prospects in his neighborhood.
Speaking of the new fancy road to
Troy he said the people of his section
had completed their end of the new
road to Troy and that they hoped the
county board would give the matter
attention at this session. The farmers
want to market their crop this fall in
Troy if prices are better than they have
been receiving and they feel that as
citizens and taxpayers they are entitled
to some considerati n. All that
remains is for the county board to
order the new road opened and this
there is no doubt they will do at this
session.
Mr.. Drury also informed US that a
farmers telephone company is being
ORGANIZED in his neighborhood for the
purpose of building lines to Troy,
Deary, and other intervening points.
All Of which shows that fancy is
determined to keep pace with the rest
of the county and that she has pro-
gresslve lot OF farmers.

Emil Watt Disappeared.

What has become OF Emil Watt, the
buttermaker at the Troy creamery
Leaving home, about six o'clock
Monday morning and seen a few
moments later as he went to the cream
cry to work he has disappeared into
thin air and no trace Of the missing
man can be found. Wednesday a
report Of crazy man answering
Watts description started a posse to
scour the country northeast OF Troy
but the chase was fruitless and yester-
day another crowd spent the afternoon
securing the hills. The business at
the creamery was in most excellent
shape and the most vigorous inquiry
has failed to discover any cause for the
rash act. His wife insists that the
home life has been happy. He was
about 80 years old, weighed about 100
pounds, and was about five feet, ten
inches tall. His eyes are blue and his
hair brown and curley and quite heavy.

Genesee is Prosperous.

The Geneese News says: AT the
regular meeting Of the city council
held Monday evening it was voted to
make the city levy 10 mills for the
present municipal year, a decrease OF
6 mills over the past year. This is an
interesting comparison with Moscow
and other surrounding towns. Last
year in city taxes alone Moscow prop
erty owners had to pay close to sixty
mills and that sum did not include the
heavy sewer tax. And it may also be
said that there is not town in this
section that can equal Genesee for
good streets, sidewalks and municipal
Improvements of every character. The
Genesee water system, though in
operation less than two years, is doing
better than paying running expenses.
The matter of low taxes, also the fact
that Genesee schools are kept I'D to
the highest average, is being taken
into consideration by good many
farmers, who, wishing to retire from
active farm work, are investing in
Genesee city property and are moving
to this place to reside permanently"
The Troy News would call the above
article to the attention of Ex-Governor
Mcconnell and others who are bowling
about high taxes and charging that
taxes in Latah county are II per cent.
They lie when they make statements
of this character and the worst of it is
they know they lie.

pie in the car, but was nevertheless so accustomed
to her vanity that she looked upon 1t indulgently,
as one would the faults OF irresponsible child.
A DESIRABLE VEIN OF VANITY,
The vanity in itself was not harmful; in fact,
it is woman's duty to be little vain in order
that she may have sufficient self respect to dress
herself neatly and becomngly. But it is also
the part of wisdom TO keep the existence of this
vanity secret, for its advantages land they arc
many) are not generally recognized.
People condemn a woman who is vain but if
she is pretty they will generally admit that she
has an excuse. | say, generally, for there are
times when her vanity and her beauty together
cause her TO lose the good will of her friends. II
she has a friend who is also pretty, this friend
is not apt to want her around too often, for fear
she may spoil her operations. This other girl
knows that the beauty in itself Is a danger, but
that the vanity offers too many temptations to
make it safe to encourage visits.
The vanity also causes her to think too much
OF herself and too little of Others. The result
is that she is selfish and bad tempered when
her desires are crossed
She has spent much time in looking in the
glass that she has come to think that everything
and everybody must as matter of course, give
way to such beauty as hers. She is entirely self
centred and extremely self-conscious.
For these reasons a vain woman is generally
condemned, but if she has the tact to keep peo-
pie guessing the extent of her vanity, then what
might have been vice becomes really virtue.
Vanity is that which makes a girl of sixteen
put large pink ribbon in her hair, and an old
lady put some soft white lace around her neck
and wrists
II is really that which constitutes a woman's s
greatest charm if kept, of course, within proper
bounds. Without it pretty woman would still
be pretty, but with it, she becomes beautiful for
a careful study Of her mirror has taught her wis
dom
She has learned what coors arc best suited
to her complexion, what mode of dressing her
hair is most becoming, and thousand important
matters which, without vanity, she could never
have learned.
