their headquarters at Lawrence,
Kansas.
About this time few sold
iers of the confederacy began
coming home, some on eick
leave, some on furlough. When
they saw their ruined homes,
their scattered families most
of them never returned to the
army, each one bent on aveng.

thus was born the Missouri
desperate.
Two farmer boys of Illinois
invested their savings in a good
team and wagon and headed
west ward to strike the Santafe
Trail d reach California.
They had reached the boarder
land of Kansas when a party
of red legs rode up and without
any enquiry fired a volly that
felled both of the lads. The
team and wagon was secured
and their owners left for dead.
An old Indian squaw passing
that way found one of them to
be alive and dragged him away
to her tepe, where in h e

Compliments Members ON SoIdierly
Bearing and Efficiency.
Last evening company C, End In
fantry, National Guards of Idaho,
held its regular drill and was infor-
mally inspected by Governor Brady.
The governor, after witnessing the
company's drill, complimented the
members upon their effective work,
neat and tidy appearance and evil
dences of thorough discipline. The
company escorted the governor to
the Commercial club, where he held
an informal reception to the public.
The company's appearance on the
street called forth much favorable
comment by strangers who saw their
maneuvers. There are many in the
city who do not know that Occur d.
Alene has the honor of maintaining
a militia company, effectively drilled
in the tactics of military discipline,
and while primarily a state organiza-
ton, has by recent act of congress
been incorporated in the United
States army and is subject to the
call of the president for national de-
Tense in time of war.
The company has maintained itself
largely through the efforts of its
members. and the efforts of its COM
handing officer, Capt. Clement VIII
kins.
The organization now consists of
Captain Clement wilkins, First Lieu
tenant Hal Shadduck. Second Lieu
tenant George Erickson and about 40
men.
There seems to be an awakening
among business men as to the res
possibility and duty of sustaining
and encouraging this company.

of this city.

COEUR DsALENE BASE
BALL PLAYERS SELECTED
Exceptionally Strong Team for Com
ing Year.

Exceptionally Strong Team for Com
ing Year.
Manager William Demo, of the
Occur d'Alene baseball team, has Sc
lected his players for the coming
year, and he has exercised great care
in the selection, which is as follows:
Catchers-Ea Farley and Robbins;
pitchers, Cannon, Brown, Kelley and
Leach; 1st base, Maloney and Purdy:
End, Haywood and Purdy; Bird, Mohr
and Leach; short stop, Demo and
Parvis; left field, Demo and Gerdes;
center, Thornton and Williams; right
field, Witham and Purdy.
Regarding the Players.
Cannon pitched for the Occur a.
Alene aggregation last year and was
a winner for his team. Brown has
been a pitcher for the city league, of
Spokane for some time and was con-
sidered there as an Al man. Kelley
is also a good man and has every
thing in the way of curves. He will
report for duty ON April 10.
Leach, the pitcher, is a fast in
fielder and also can twirl the ball
in a wonderfully pleasing manner.
He has a good arm and excellent
speed. He will pitch the opening
game of the season for Occur d'Alene
when they cross bats with the spo-
kane Indians in this city early next
month.
Ben Farley has been the star
catcher for the Occur d'Alene play
ers for three successive seasons and
shows better science this year than
at any previous time. He is also a
strong man at the bat.
Purdy, better known as Bragg. is
working out hard at first base. He Is
a bad man at the stick and is liable
TO break up a game at any time.
"Biil" Haywood, who is one of the
fastest fielders in this section, has
been transferred to the position OF
second base. He is a member OF
last years home team and is headed
as one of the strongest batters.
Paryis, the star short stop OF
Spokane league team last year, will
hold the same place In the Occur d.
Alene team and as among the best
he ranks well.
VIII Demo, the manager, is one
of the most clever of the entire team
and aside from the diamond he is one
of the shrewdest managers to be
found in the Inland Empire.

MILES OF LAND AND
SNOW SLIDES In IDAHO

Clearwater Branch OF N. r. Knocked

LEWISTON. Idaho, March %. 800
The worst series OF slides and wash
outs since the road has been in oper-
alton is reported today on the Clear
water branch of the Northern Pacific
between Arrow Junction and Peck.
The first five miles beyond Arrow
Is practically one continuous slide
five to Is feet deep, and at Lenore 1t

The Clearwater and Snake rivers
continue to rise, and both are now
at ordinary June food stage. The
Snake is 16 IL feet above low-water
mark and the Clearwater is IA feet
above.
The local weather station reports
rising temperature and low baromet-

Upon Sherman street last evening
was seen two cases Of badly intoxi-
Gated young men, in fact worse than
has been witnessed in many weeks
before. One of the individuals had
companions caring for him, while the
other was battling his way alone. A
pity that young men so far forget
themselves as to Der 1ne the slave Of
so degrading actions, and lose the
respect of all who perchance see them
in the intoxicated condition.

There is only one serious objection
to having the beautiful macadamized
road between Occur d'Alene and
Spokane, and that is that everybody
would be tempted to spend their
spare change for an automobile and
the demand for cars would be so
great it might be impossible for the
manufacturers to fill the orders.

WHERE POST CARDS STARTED
Mania for Pictorial Pasteboard First
Arose in Switzerland, Twelve
Years Ago.

1t was in Switzerland that the ma
MIA for pictorial postcards first arose
and all can well remember the as
constituent evoked some dozen years
ago at seeing at the TheoduIe Hut the
excitement of a party of Germans I'D.
on their ascertaining that they could
dispatch thence, via Italy, a sheaf of
views of the Matterhorn, says the Lon
don Globe. If one may judge from the
very interesting collection of old Al
pine prints now on view at the Anime
club, Saville Row, our ancestors were
also eager to carry away souvenirs of
scenes unlike any to which they were
accustomed and of which the ter
rors and dangers were doubtless un-
exaggerated. And to the Swiss. who
were among the earliest to exploit col
ored engravings, provided them with
material with a sufficient spice of ex-
aggeration to satisfy those who STAYED
at home. These they dedicated to the
amateurs of the marvels of nature"
and for them they crowded into
single landscape dozen Staubbachs.
and any number of aiguilles and gla-
ciers, with artists portraying them
and peasants holding festival beneath
them.

GOOD DOG SAVES BAD BOY
Epigrams EnIiven Address of District
Superintendent of Schools to
Teachers.

Many bad boy has been saved b.
a good dog. It is a good thing t.
bring these opposites together.
Tens of thousands Of back yards il
Chicago are going to waste, and many
boys are going to waste with them. The
public doesn't realize the possible
ties for good Or evil in a back yard
| l wouldn't have a stuffed bird in a
schoolhouse or on a woman's hat"
These epigrams by Orville T. Bright
district superintendent of schools of
Chicago, enlivened an address which
Mr.. Bright delivered before the public
school principals the other day.
The lecture was illustrated by ex-
ceptionally fine stereopticon views
of birds and boys, used to emphasize
Mr.. Bright's theory that the boys
should help to save their birds because
the birds help to save the boys.
After he had thrown upon the can
vas picture of a beautifully colored
bird photographed as it perched on a
bit of shrubbery in a school yard, Mr..
Bright said:
When these plants, flowers, shrubs
and trees are properly installed in our
school yards, the birds will follow. and
then We will be able to put into prac-
tlce the principles of the right treat
ment of our dumb animals as pre-
scribed by the laws of the state.
This business of stuffing dead birds
of lii
more attractive to men is nefarious
one. The women's hats are no places
for the birds which once have cheered
the world with their beauty and their
singing"
Mr.. Bright showed the picture of a
rear yard which had been transformed
into veritable garden.
There is picture I like" he said,
Il know positively that that back
yard has done more for boys than any
other one exhibit can offer. Amid
the flowers and s11rubbery there YOU
will find holes dug by the boys. They
make the picture more attractive. Dig
ging holes in those surroundings is as
harmless a pleasure as we can offer
a little fellow. Every yard should be
made so attractive that the boys would
be content to stay there and just dig
holes"
Mr.. Bright exhibited the picture of
tumble-down country school, with
