acquaintance. AS for the author, she
says if the book has local color it was
put in unconsciously on her part.
BY her maiden name of Mary Il. Will
kins the author of THE Debtor" first
became known to the public through
her short stories. The most notable of
these was "a Humble Romance"
which she wrote in 1887 and which the
late Bishop Phillips Brooks declared
the best story ever written.
About sixteen years ago the fair nov
elist paid visit TO Henry NJ. Alden of
Harper's Magazine at his home in Me
tuchen and there met DR.. Freeman.
He fell in love with her, but it was
some time before he could persuade
the writer of romance to follow the ex-
ample of her herOines and say yes"
They were engaged for about ten
years, and during that time the affair
was once or twice broken off, but in
1902 the marriage finally took place.
1t was during the early stages of their
romance that the doctor once accompa-
MED Miss wilkins to reception in
New York in honor of the late Mat
thew Arnold. The poet of sweetness
and light" was charmed with Miss Will
kins' conversation, but at the moment
of their introduction failed to catch her
name. At an opportune moment he APP
pealed to the doctor, who was lowering
near.
THAT is Miss Mary Wilkins" said
the doctor proudly.
"Ah. yes" said Arnold. But does
she-ah- eh-write?"

SHUT OUT OTHER RAILROADS
Northern Pacific Buys Land Between

A deed was recorded yesterday by
Wesley Steele and wife to the North
ern Pacific Railway company convey
ing strip Of land So feet wide. 400
feet east Of the east city line and ex-
tending from the Lapwai road to the
Clearwater sloughs. The considera-
ton Is $1,000.
This land is in the old French Louis
place and extends distance of about
900 feet at right angles with the
Northern Pacific track. From the To-
cation Of the land between the sloughs
and high bluff it is probable that
this Is move upon the part OF the
Northern Pacific to keep all other
railroads from entering the valley from
the east.

BUYS OLD RELIC
LEW|SANOClARK
Frank Parkyns Secures ADJ
Which Explorers Gave
the Indians

Frank Parkyns of east Lewiston
has added another relic of the Lewis
and Clark days to the interesting col
lection he has had in his possession
since last summer
Yesterday he purchased a cooper's
hand adj from Charles Jackson, an
Indian pilot living near the north fork
of the Clearwater river.
This adj has been handed down
from the grandfather of Adams, Alb
anne tim linn, who lived at the north
fork 101 years ago, when the first
white men who ever traversed the
canyons of the Clearwater river came
through from Montana.
Aba me -tim-im took charge of the
horses belonging to the white men
while the party was making its jour-
ney from the forks to the Pacific
ocean, and upon their return he was
presented with this adj and an AZ
which his family has kept during all
tneSe years.
The explorers had evidently brought
the tool along for the purpose of US
ing it for digging out canoes. It is
made in such a shape that a cooper
could complete a barrel from Begin
ming to end without the aid Of any
other tool. A hardwood handle shows
that 1t was made east Of the noun
tains. The few who have been able
to identify it say that 1t Is an anti
date specimen and very few Of them
are to be found at the present time
in the country.
A half finished canoe and a stump
from which the Lewis and Clark ca
noes were taken are the other relics
Mr.. Parkyn's possesses.

Special to Evening Teller.
GRANGEVILLE, Idaho, Oct. IT,
George w. Goode, one of the most
widely known men in Idaho county,
and an old pioneer here, was yester-
day judged insane by Probate Judge
Jaques. The complaint was made by
l.. Vineyard and Drs. Stockton and
Shaeffer were called as witnesses.
The evidence introduced showed
that the mans mind was affected, and
that he was violent at times, and a
dangerous man to have at large. But
a short time ago he was arrested for
driving his family from home under
threats of murder.
Mr.. Goode is one of the old timers
Of Idaho county. During the early
days Of Grangeville he came here and
established a printing plant, and pub
lished the Grangeville Standard. He
was known In those days as one Of
the brightest men in Idaho county.
but he was always a hard drinking
man and man Of violent ideas. In
the newspaper work his radical ut
terances won for him a score Of enc
mics. and he soon was forced to sell
his plant for what he could get.
He remained In Grangeville and un.
dertook the practice Of law. As .
lawyer he was recognized as a man
Of ability. but man who might be-
come violently drunk at any time
during his case. He secured some-
thing of a practice and for a time en-.
joyed the respect Of his fellow citizens
especially for his ability.
During all of this time he was q
heavy drinker and the effects of liquor
were noticed to be gradually destroy
ing his mind. When a few weeks ago
he violently drove his family out OF
home his condition was suspicioned.
It is not definitely known where
his family Is at this time, but they
are thought to be in Seattle. Mrs.
Goode is said to have inherited a con-
siderable sum of money In the past
year. and one Of the reasons for Mr..
Goodies violence IL said to have been
her refusal to allow him to spend the
\ money for drink.

FINE EXHIBIT HERE
FROM Twin FALLS

Lewiston now has a permanent ex-
ribit of the products of the Twin Falls
irrigated lands.
J. r. Conley, who brought from
Southern Idaho the fine exhibit of
Twin Falls irrigated products which
drew SO much attention at the Lewis
tom Charleston fair, returned to his
home this morning, but before going
he removed the exhibit from the fair
grounds and found permanent quar-
ters for it in the offices Of Croker &
Riggs in the Donzac block.
Mr.. Conley states that all Of the
fifty miles of the main ditch In the
Twin Falls project was finished two
months ago and now the contractors
are completing laterals. Two crops
have been raised on the land, which
has been found to be very fertile.
What was formerly 100000 acres Of
dessert waste land is now under water
and 100000 acres will be irrigated
when all the laterals are completed.
Mr. Conley was for eight years a
resident of Charleston and had charge
Of the Asotin county exhibit at the
fair for a number Of years. He is
highly pleased with the investment he
has made in Twin Falls and informs
the public that he has no land for
sale.
