another expedition west. He fell in
with Bonneville in the Bear river
country where. according to Irving,
| they and their men INDUCED in few
weeks OF sociability and heavy drink
| ing.
Wyeth, however, now had a distinct
object in view and proceeding west
until he struck the Portneuf river, he
camped on July 14th near its juno
ture with the Snake. Here he thought
his interior post should be located
charming spot for the purpose was
found in the midst Of rich grassy
plain on the south banks Of the Port
neuf river, the opposite side Of which
was covered with large cottonwood
and willow trees, rising from a thick
underground OF the same, mixed with
currant bushes. Here a stockade was
erected and named Fort Hall, and it
became famous In overland emigrant
annals.
On August 9Th, 1884, at sunrise,
the United States flag fioated over the
new fort. Prior to this time Fort
Leavenworth. on the Missouri river
had been the frontier post of the Uni
ted States, and the building of a SUBJ
stantial fort, midway between that
place and the mouth Of the Columbia
river was a most important event. 1t
signified occupation. All that region
was still debatable ground and every
move of this kind had it's influence
in ultimately fixing the dividing line
between British and United States do
minions.
In Wyeth's party were five mis-
sionaries, among them Jason Lee, and
just prior to the completion Of Fort
Hall on Sunday, July 9th, he
preached in the forest adjacent to the
fort. This was the first Christian re-
ligious service performed within the
limits of what is now Idaho. 1t was
not until two years later that the
Presbyterians established a mission
among, the Nez Perces on the Clear
water and still some years later be-
fore the Jesuit fathers preached
Christ among the Occur d'Alenes and
Kootenais of the Panhandle country.
But in the region around Fort Hall,
as much of man and as little Of God
as possible was the rule in spite of
this service. The dedication of the
fort was made day of debauchery.
Vilely immoral men we're given as
much vile drink as they could stag
ger under and the sun set on a day
of besotted indulgence and drunken
AS soon as the news OF the found
ing of Fort Hall reached Oregon the
Bay Fur company sent out
an expedition and planted Fort Boise |
on the banks of the Snake about mid
way between the Baise and Payette |
rivers. 1t was built as rival trading |
,ost, to Offset the influence Of the post |
Of the American company. Wyeth' 8 |
venture again proved failure finan-
,ially and in 1886 he sold Fort Hall
10 the Hudson Bay company, and the
Columbia River Fishing and Trading |
company was dissolved. Although 30
lar as he was individually concerned
Wyeths labors were in vain, still his
influence upon the occupation and set
;lement of the northwest was second
o none. The flag of the United States
vas planted by him simultaneously
n the heart of the continent and on
he Pacific coast. He 1t was who,

Strictly Fresh Eqqs.

There are summer resorts, remote
from any agricultural communities,
where fresh farm products are even
harder to obtain than in the city. II
was at such a place that the new
boarder who had eaten four or five
breakfasts there, began to wonder
why the eggs were invariably served
fried.
See here?' he inquired one Nom
Ing of the genial colored man who
waited upon him, why do you always
fry eggs here? Don't you ever boil
them?'
"Oh-oh, yes, sah!" responded the
waiter, pleasantly. "Of co'se, yo' kin
have 'em boiled, if yo' wants EN-. But
you know, sab, yo' takes de risk"

City Youngster Too Well Aware Of the
WiIes of Grafters.

The baseball evangelist, the elo-
quent Billy Sunday, said during the
revival services at Sharon, Pa:
Keep good company. Nothing does
the young more harm than bad So
ciety. Only yesterday a farmer told
me about a youngster of six or seven,
a little country weeker, who had as
suspicious and mistrustful a heart as
some old miser or crook.
This boy was sent by charity So
ciety to spend week at the farmers.
The farmer set out to meet him, but
was late. He ran into him halfway
to the farm, trudging along the white
road, big burlap bag of luggage On
his little bony shoulder.
THE farmer held out his hands for
the burlap bag.

heavy for you.

ALMOST A SHADOW.
Gained 20 BIS. on Grape-Nuts.

There's a wonderful difference be
tween a food which merely tastes good
and one which builds up strength and
good healthy flesh.
1t makes no difference how much We
eat unless we can digest it. 1t Is
not really food to the system until
it is absorbed. A Yorkstate woman
says:
Il had been a sufferer for ten years
with stomach and liver trouble. and
had got so bad that the least bit of
food such as l then knew, would give
me untold misery for hours after
eating.
i lost flesh until | was almost
shadow of my original self and my
friends were quite alarmed about me.
First | dropped coffee and used
Postum, then began to use Grape-Nuts
although had little faith it would do
me any good.
"But continued to use the food and
have gained twenty pounds in weight
and feel like another person in every
way. | feel as if life had truly begun
anew for me.
Il can eat anything l like now in
moderation, suffer no i'll effects, be on
my feet from morning until night
Whereas year ago they had to send
me away from home for rest while
others cleaned house for me, this
spring have been able to do It myself
all alone.
MY breakfast is simply Grape-Nuts
with cream and cup of Postum, with
sometimes an egg and piece of toast,
but generally only Grape-Nuts and
Postum. And | can work until noon
and not feel as tired as one hours
work would have made me a year ago"

FATHER K0KENGE
WILL LECTURE

'Is One Religion as Good as Anoth-
err" Is the subject Of lecture to
be given on tuesday evening, Febru-
airy 9Th, at the Mcintyre opera
house by Rev Father Kokenge.
All education and enlightenment
along right lines are deserving Of en-
couragement. This grave theme the
Rev. lecturer is going to speak on is
certainly important enough, and is a
point disputed enough to attract at
tention of all the serious-minded peo-
pie of our community.
Well there is nothing like discussion
to make obscure points clear.
It will be worth going to see what
light he will throw on this interesting
question.

performed the ceremony which united
Miss Annie A. Furlong and Mr. Harry

Leon Freeland, who was best man.
The happy couple left on the eve

Fails, returning to the city the mid
die of this week. The time of the
wedding and of their going was un-
known to a large circle of admiring
friends, who were planning on jol-
ly, lively sendoff, and all were great
ly disappointed.

.KALIsPELL BILLED
FOR MAIN Line

Something not altogether new, but
at Fort Benton. an order was issued
from the careful reports brought back
from st. Paul by well known mill
man Of railroad movement He was
assured in the general offices OF the
Great Northern that at the very ear
liest opportunity, perhaps this spring,
work would commence on the Libby
cutoff, and that when that route
was completed Kalispell would again
be upon the main line, as the through
passengre and lighter freights would
be hauled over this route. There
seemed to be no uncertainty as to
the intention Of the railroad company
to build this cutoff at once. The
early completion of the Billings G
Northern to Great Falls will require
all the trackage that the present line
affords and the cutoff or double
track becomes ecessity.-Kalispe1l
