STRANGE Freak Of Memory,

There is a strange story of how
Sir Walter Scott, producing 'The Bride
Of Lammermoor" during Illness. was
afterward found to have forgotten en-
tirely what he had thus created. Ac-
cording to James Ballantyne, "the book
was written and published before Mr..
Scott was able to rise from his bed,
and he assured me when 1t was first
put into his hands in a complete shape
that he did not recollect a single Incl
dent, character or conversation 1t con-
tanned. The original Incidents Of the
story. which he had known from boy
hood, he still remembered. but he knew
no more about the story he had writ
ten than he did before he began to
write or ever think about writing IT.

PROMINENT VISITORS !
Capt. James Macnab and Judse
Armisen Guests Of Friends.

During the past week Capt. James
Macnab, who has been quartered for
the past year at Cuban points. ar
lived here for short visit with his
father James \. Macnab and other
relatives. Capt. Macnab is accom- :
panied by Judge Armisen, native
Cuban, who can not speak a word of
English. Judge Armisen is making
tour OF the country, and becoming
acquainted with our customs. Capt.
Macnab speaks Spanish iiuently, and
acts as interpreter for the Judge.
Judge Armisen, In Cuba, is a dis
trict judge; and in that country, is
very exalted position. He is very
pleasant appearing gentleman and
impresses those with whom he comes
In contact most favorably. He Is en-
loying his trip very much, principally
because he meets with different GUS
toms, with which he seems to have
the happy faculty of conforming TO
readily, and on account of the differ.
ences in country and climate. No
doubt when he returns to his Cuban
home he will have many stories TO
tell his friends concerning his trip
through the United States.
Capt. Macnab is making a special
effort TO see that he enjoys what will
most interest him; in fact is show.
ing him merry time Tuesday they
started TO Jack Cramer's mine on the
head of Kirtley creek and the follow.
ing day purposed to climb one of the
highest peaks of the main range.
Upon their return they will form a
hunting party which will spend a
couple of weeks in the Shoup. Pine
creek and Middle Fork country look
ing for large game. The bunting
party will consist of five, the other
three to be Eastern men who wish to
add few deer, and bear to their
trophies as huntSmen.
Capt. Macnab is native OF this
city, enlisting first in the Philippine
service, being promoted to captain
cy. During the past year he has
been engaged In special service for
the government, and has had plenty
OF opportunity to travel over the Is
land Of Cuban and becoming ac.
quainted with the conditions. He
was granted furlough for the pur.
pose of attending marksmen con
test at couple of points In the
United States. He is considered one
of the best pistol marksmen i'm the
regular service, having Two gold med.
ais for fine workmanship. He has a
furlough for only thirty days, but is
now making an effort TO have IL ex.
tended to two months. In any even,
they will remain here until the first
Of the month.
The Judge and Captain Macnat
have met a great many people during
their stay in the city. While the
Judge cannot talk English, yet he
seems to be able to gain some idea OF
the conversation, even when not In
terpreted, and hugely enjoys himself
Those who have been with him The
most since he has been In the city
pronounce him most pleasant anc
congenial companion.

TO BEGIN !
A full Corps Of Teachers Have
Been Secured and School
Commences Monday.

The resignation Of Mr.. Parsons and
the misunderstanding in reference TO
the employment OF ]. H. Hoist as
principal OF our city schools has
worked considerable of hardship
upon the trustees. BY keeping the
wires hot between here and Chicago
teachers employment agency. Clerk
Hubbard has surmounted the DIM
culties and has secured a principal
and kindergarten teacher.
The agency placed DIR. Hubbard in
communication with W. ii. Craw.
ford, OF Big Rapids, Michigan. whom
the agency highly recommended as "A
we'll qualified school teacher who is
up-to-date In his methods, as prin-
cipal. AS TO his special qualifications
for this particular position, time will
only demonstrate. The time was too
limited and telegraphing too expen
sive tn go very far into details con-
cerning his experience in school work.
A teachers agency, however, could
hardly afford to recommend man
for the position who could not come
up to the requirements.
The principalship and teacher for
the kindergarten were the only two
pusitions which were vacant. Eva
Morrison, of Grano Rapids. Michi.
gan, has been secured TO take this
department. She comes highly rec

| 1t is stated that she Is a graduate OF
two well-known kindergarten schools
and with twelve years experience In
this especial line of work.
The following is the corps of teach.
ers for the ensuing year: " ii.
Crawford, Miss Treadwell, Mrs. Mary
Wood, Miss Bessie Mcdonald. Miss
Ethel Boyes, and Eva Morrison. As
TO what rooms they will teach, is a
matter which will more than likely
be left TO the discretion OF the new
principal, to some extent.
III Prin. Crawford arrives here III
time, which IL is expected he will
do, the schools will open up Monday
morning, otherwise, the schools will
not convene until the following morn

as janitor for the ensuing year
Painters have been at work on th,
rooms getting things in shape for oc
cupancy. The furnishings have beer
frightened up and the interior of tb,
building presents more inviting ap
pearance.
During the past week Miss Carrie
Soule has been taking census OF The
pupils of school age In the district
Her report shows that there are ~
boys and l3l girls, or 257 pupils il
all. Last year there were 300 pupili
enrolled from the district and coun

that there will be over 800 pupils II
attendance. DIR. Hubbard tells u
that quite a number from the cOun
try are already making application
for admittance.
Notwithstanding the adverse cir
cumstances with which DR.. Hubbard
has been confronted, as clerk Of tb,

mounted them all. The indication
are that we are going 10 have mos

devoutly hoped for by those who TAX

SCARCITY OF TEACHERS!
Idaho Not the Only State Where
Teachers arc Hard to Get.

perintenuent al public instruction,
was asked by reporter from the
Statesman yesterday To give some
reason for the great scarcity OF teach
ers which exists IN many of the
counties OF the state,
Miss Chamberlain stated that the
great demand for teachers existed
mol alone In Idaho but all over tae
country, II VAS the subject, she
said, OF serious and animated discus.
sien at several of the important ses.
sions Of the National Educat ional
association meeting at Los Angeles
last summer.
The consensus OF opinion there was
that II vas due IN a large part to the
fact that the increase In salaries In
the teachers profession had not kept
pace either with the increase In liv-
Ing or the increase In wages In other
professions many Of the best men In
the profession leaving it for other
more remuneratise occupations,
The fact also that there are So
many more occupations open TO
women now than formerly was given
as one reason for the lack OF sufficient
teachers. Also tina, the teacher Ii
ONLY employed for nine months, at
most. out OF the year, the vacations,
including holidays. all being taken
| out when the salaries are commuted,
Ia almost every other position the
worker is given months vacation
on full pay beside oil holidays, while
tie teacher Is only paid for the actua
time employed. In Idaho the teach,

quired by Law 10 attend nil count,

The greatest dearth OF teachers II
Idaho comes from the rural districts
from Lemhi, Fremont, Custer. Lin
coin and Blaine counties. While tn
number af school months In thes
counties IL smaller than IN others tn
salaries paid are quite up Ia the ay
erage, In Custer county position

In number OF instances candidate
who applied for positions failed 4
the state examinations. but in ever
case the failure was due 10 the fac
that the applicant was young, inex

Another reason. Miss Cbamterlal
thought, for the lack OF teachers 4
these counties was due TO the fac
that teachers Of experience dislike I

from boarding places often bein
