Will Celebrate With Big Field Meet

For the past two weeks, the young
er boys in the High school and a few
of the Eighth grade boys have been
training faithfully in the different
branches of athletics, to meet the
athletes of the youthful order known
as the knights of st. Paul, which is
fostered by the Episcopal church. of
this city.
The program for the meet which is
to occur at the fair grounds, Feb. .
will include all of the events common
to the High school and college field
days. The 100-yard and 220-yard
dashes, u mile and u mile runs,
low hurdles, put and hammer throw,
will all be features of the afternoon.
While most of the boys participating
in the coming event are too young to
win points in the High school meet, it
will be good practice for them and 1t
will be a very interesting program to
witness.
All of the necessary officials have
been chosen and everything Will be
carried out in systematic manner.
An admittance fee of about 10 cents
will be charged and the proceeds Will
go to the different organizations for
athletic goods and other require
ments. Every one should turn out
and cheer his favorite contestant on
to victory.

Yesterday in the legislature. at the
instance of Attorney-General John
T. Barnett, bill was introduced
which will give the attorney general
authority to try and test the right of
the federal government to pursue the
policy 1t has been pursuing for the
past few years relative to the recla-
nation service and the conservation
of the natural resources. Mr.. Barnett
finds his authority limited so far as
the powers conferred upon him by
the state are concerned The bill
will provide an authority to start suit
to test the right of the government
to do those things which appear to
encroach upon the state right so far
as it's land and water is concerned.
He is also authorized to appear in
another suit in which the same ques-
tions are being tested. 1t will carry
an appropriation of 100000.

AFTERNOON IN FEBRUARY.

The day is ending,
The night is descending:
The marsh is frozen,
The river dead.
Through clouds like ashes
The red sun flashes
On village windows
That glimmer red.
The snow recommences;
The buried fences
Mark no longer
The road DER the plain;
While through the meadows
Like fearful shadows,
Slowly passes
A funeral train.
salzI1
The bell is pealing,
And every feeling
Within me responds
To the dismal knell:

Shadows are trailing.
My heart is bewailing
And tolling within

Simple Bride Scheme.

1t is not always that the inhabitants

lent point Tor them. At times ingenui-
ty supplies the need in a novel man

seen this illustrated in the queer little
trolley bridges that the people of that
country call cages and regard as
quite commonplace. The chief requi-
site is q stout Wire rope stretched
across the stream and anchored firmly
on each bank. Upon this rope wheels
run. From them is suspended q box
or basket fastened so as to be perfect
ly safe. When a person wishes to
cross the stream he seats himself in

fastened TO the other bank and non
