LOCAL AND SOCIAL HAPPENINGS
OF THE WEEK.

Caldwell was the central attraction
at Chautauqua in Boise Thursday of
last week, that day being "Recogni-
ton Day" for graduates of the Chau-
tauqua course and in recognition OF
their four years efforts special SER
vices were held in their honor. 1t
was also the privilege of those who
had received their diplomas and had
never had the opportunity of going
through the Golden Gate" and
other exercises to partake in the pro-
gram and quite a number awaited
themselves of the chance. The grad
uating class consisted of Mrs. Wiley,
Mrs. Rowland and Miss Mcfarland OF
Caldwell, Mrs. E. M. Kirkpatrick,
Mrs. Mitchell and Mrs. Baldridge OF
Parma, OF the class of 1909. Mrs.
w. A. Stone of class of 1902, Mes
danes Groome, Roberts, Dyer and
Chas. Cakes of Glass of 1906, Mes
danes E. Boone, ]. c. Rice, Ohm
stead, B. w. Rice, Thompson, Hay,
Van Wyngarden of class of 1909. The
address given by DR.. Griggs was the
same as that which he gave in Au-
gust at the parent ChautauQua in
New York and Idaho's first Chautau-
qua was most fortunate in securing
such a splendid speaker. The whole
services were very impressive and
beautiful. Several OF the under grad
yates were in attendance, among
them were Mesdames Chas. Davis,
Madden and A. X. Steunenberg.
Rev. F. E. Springer left for the
east on Mondays afternoon train.
He expects to be gone for the balance
of the summer.
Mrs. A. F. Isham went to Baker
City Tuesday for a two weeks visit
with her daughters, Mary and Elsie.
A most delightful treat was given
the music loving public by the Pass
more Sisters, for while the evening
was one OF the hottest of the season,
they held their audience spellbound
until the close of the performance
by the wonder of their talents. It
would be hard to say which of the
three was the most talented, as 1t
would largely be a matter of which
instrument one was most fond of. 1t
is to be hoped we may hear more of
them another season.
Mrs. Brooks, mother of Mrs. Geo.
Handy left for Silver City on Thurs
day of this week.

DIR. MYLER OF HOMEDALE
PASSES AWAY.

DR.. VIM, F. Myler died Friday
evening at his home in Homedale
afer an illness of five days. Friday
he was apparently Convalescent, be-
ing up and around the house part OF
the day. At about ten o'clock in the
evening he was stricken with paraly-
sis and passed away. Rev. McCord
of Homedale had charge of the fun
eral, which was held at the Presby-
terrain church in this city, and he was
laid to rest in Canyon Hill cemetery.
DR.. Myler retired from practice
about twelve years ago, moving with
his family to Homedale from Chicago
IN 1904.
He was born in Spencer county,
Indiana, February II, 1871, gradua-
ted from the Jefferson Medical Col
lege of Philadelphia in 1867.
Soon after he graduated he was
married to Miss Malvina Walters at
Rockport, Ind, and went to Parkers-
Vile, Kansas, to practice his profess
sion. Here he had the sorrow to lose,
by death, his wife and two infant
sons before hs was yet thirty years
of age.
Five years later he was married at
Parkersville, Kansas, to Miss Ella
Miller, who survives him. To this
union three sons were born, Walter
the eldest dying at seven years Of
age and Frank and Roy Of Homedale.
In 1890 at Winneconne, Wisconsin,
DR.. Myler took to his home the young
babe of one of his patients, for Mrs.
Myler to care for during the mothers
illness, two weeks later the mother
died and the babe remained in the
home equally loved with the others.
This was Allen who died April 10th
of the present year. The Doctors
grief at the loss of this dear son has
tened his last illness. The Doctor al
so leaves a sister to mourn his death,
Mrs. Walter Moody, of Caldwell.
DR.. Myler was kind and tinaul-
gent husband and father, a good
neighbor and a staunch friend to any
in sickness or need. The pioneers of
Kansas will remember that no night
was too dark, no storm too fierce.
no road too long for him to respond
to their calls. Many times refusing
to take recompense, as the country
was new and many of the people
struggling with sickness and power
ty.
DR.. Myler accumulated little of this
worlds goods, but laid up for him
self many treasures in heaven where
moth and rust doth not corrupt nor
thieves break through and steal"

OVERLAND TO BOISE.

Rev. A. G. Saxon, pastor OF the
baptist church, left Monday morning
OF this week on his summers leave
of absence to be gone something like
a month. He had worked for sever
al days fitting up Il rig OF two horses
and spring wagon and getting to-
gether camp outfit for long and
pleasant stay on tho road and in the
mountains. The trip will extend to
Boise where he will visit with his
parents, and from there he will take
the back track into the hills where
he will fish and rusticate for a time.
Mrs. Saxon and the children accom-
panied him on the outing.-Grange-

HOMESTEAD TO GO
Brooklyn Street VIII HUade
Gerken Estate.

The growth Of the borough is rapidly
wipIng out the last OF the country estates
that were the pride OF Kings County in
other days. Few of the old estates have
been passed over in the general work OF
development The next estate to be "im-
proved for the general welfare OF the
borough is the Ridley estate. perhaps bet
ter known to-day as the home of Mrs.
Clara w. Ridley Gerken. noted horse
woman.
The Ridley estate occupies a large tract
OF land at Kings Highway and Coney
Island avenue. a section once a part OF
the old town of Gravesend. Mrs Gerken.
her husband and her three children now oc-
cupy the homestead.
Mrs. Gerken's father. Edward Ridley,
took up his home on the property in 1S49.
He was known as a drygoods merchant
and wealthy man for the time. In 1865
he married Miss Caroline Wilhelmina
Yereance. of Philadelphia. After his mar
riage the house was enlarged and became
the scene of many social affairs. The place
was noted FOR it's greenhouses Men were
employed to tend the plants night ard day.
anC many gifts OF flowers and fruits found
their way to the hospitals OF the section.
The estate extends one thousand feet in
each street it fronts, and the house stands
in wooded grounds. The chief interest of
the estate no longer lies in it's greenhouses,
but In its stables. Here was conducted un-
til two years ago the Gerkendale stock
farm. In the ten years OF Its existence the
farm produced many blooded horses OF
note. Among these were Belmar. Brandon
Lady Waubun. Newsboy. Shop Girl, Festa
Tilley. Pride Mayo. Peter Pan, Gerkendalt
y. Mary Rose and DOncaster Model, show
horses that won many blue ribbon, cham
pionship and silver cup
The opening and extension OF 9Th street
will necessitate the removal by May l OF
the large barn. the carriage house anc
the greenhouses.
1t had been the hope of Mrs Gerker
that she might hand down the estate tC
her children intact as she had received Il
from her father. but when she found thai
the street must cut through her property
she decided the city outright the land re
quired for the purpose. Mrs. Gerken ha!
disposed of most of her horses, only re
tanning Vesta TiIley and eight or ten other:
of lesser note, and will abandon breeding.

As the Packer Institute has always.
since it was founded. over half a century
ago, enlisted the support of Brooklyn So
ciety, 1t was only natural that the audience
which nearly filed the opera house of the
Academy Of Music on Friday evening,
when the concert for the benefit OF the
endowment fund was given there, should
be a thoroughly representative one. From
financial point of view the concert was
also decidedly successful. the returns being
considerably larger than the number pres
ent would indicate, owing to the absence
of many of the institutes patrons in the
South elsewhere at this time of the
year. The chorus of one hundred and fifty
voices, trained by r. Huntington Wood
