TURNER IN COMMAND.

zcith NeU Captain.

The Cunard liner Mauretania the fast
est passenger steamship af1oat. will
leave Liverpool to-day in command of
Captain W. T. Turner. This is the sec
end change in the company's plans since
Captain John Pritchard. commodore of
the feet and commander of the Maure-
tania, resigned from the Cunard Line
service, about two months ago.
On Captain Pritchard's retirement
Captain r. c. War;. the senior captain
became commodore, but, desiring to put
d younger man in command of the Mau-
retania, the company selected Captain
Charles. 1t was planned to let Captain
War; take the Mauretania for few
trips and then turn her over to Captain
Charles, but this arrangement was alb
ruptly changed a few days ago. when
the Mauretania came out of 4drydock
after her brief annual overhauling.,
Captain Turner was getting splendid
work out of the Lusitania and his skill
in handling her caused the company to
give him permanent command of the
Mauretania, which is faster. Captain
Turner was content TO remain on the
Lusitania, but the board Of directors de-
cided that he should take the fastest
ship of the fleet and assigned Captain
Charles to the Lusitania.
1t is contended that the older captains
are not equal to the strain of running a
big quadruple screw turbine ship at "a
knots. II is believed in the steamship
quarter that Captain Turner will force
some new records out of the Mauretania
this winter over the long course.

Receiving Proper Recog-

From personal letters written by
Hon. w. B. Hepburn, U. s. senator,
and Hon. Thomas r. Hamer, repre-
sentative, to Charles A. Parsons,
we have the following items of in
terest. Senator Hepburn writes:
Il returned on January End from a
trip with senate committee to the
Panama Canal. We had a most
pleasant and instructive visit. 1t is
a great work and is in competent
hands. The people generally have
no conception of the magnitude of
this work or of the splendid con-
ditions under which it is being
performed. 1t will certainly be COM
pleted within the time estimated,

cellent health"

stand that it will be very difficult
to accomplish very much in this mat
ter before the completion of the in
vestigation of the Forestry and In
terror departments, which has sub
stantially been ordered by congress.
Everybody will be much at sea, in
Guiding the heads of these depart

DRUMMERS In
MAD RACE
Two Lewiston Travelling Men
Have Exciting Trip in
the Mountains.

Commercialism. the strenuous
brand of the Goth century, was
brought into central Idaho, So miles
off the railroad, in hurry last week
by two travelling statesmen who raced
from Lewiston to get a big order
for goods from merchant in Elk
City.
j. A. Freedom and v. Knapp were
the individuals and the Idaho Gro
Gerry Co., and Lewiston Mercantile
Co., the firms in the case. 1t was
a Lewiston affair through and
through. Mr.. Freedom started from
Lewiston to do" his territory on
the Grangeville branch and Mr..
Knapp left Lewiston to take care
of his trade along the Clearwater
branch. Stiles and Grangeville are
the jumping off places, and both the
men knew that the other was head
ed for Elk City. 1t is not necessary
to state that social obligations did
not weigh heavy on these knights of
the grip at intermediate points. Or
ders were booked on the run and
trains were clipped" as the rear
cars were pulling past the. stations.
Telephones were used by each to
keep posted on the whereabouts of
the other. Grangeville and Sites
were reached about the same time
and trade was told 81 will see you
when | return" Elk City was the
word. The race was on, over 81 miles
OF mountain road, through new
snow and over two SUBMITS, the
lowest of which is better than 5000
feet. The telephone was down, ad-
ding to the excitement, and a severe
snow storm on little Badly defied
progress and helped greatly to make
the trip one that will not be easily
forgotten by the travellers. When
the u. s. mail coach and the private
rig drew up at the Mt House for
the night and the passengers were
dug out of the snow the commercial
travellers were each noticeably sur
prised at meeting the other in such
an out-of-the-way place, and the
greeting was as cordial as the hand
clasp of standpatter and pro-
gressive when they come together
in committee room.
Up to this point the race had been
a secret, but from now on 1t must
be in the open. Down on the noun
tain side the storm was furious, and
the snow was piling in big drifts in
the road that six and eight-horse
freighters had found so hard to
get through. The wind up there on
the mountain was blowing a gale,
and the monotonous creak, creak of
big nearby pine was a mockery
that made Freedom and Knapp won
der why they ever left home. Each
was a Garcia carrying his message
to- Elk City. The man who handles
the ribbons on the stage must be
nlied with the choicest of cigars,
while the pedigree of the livery team
and the horsemanship of the. driver
must be extolled in the highest terms
But the livery passenger didn't wait
for the river to freeze over. When
day came one enemy" had flown.
and when "allaboard" was announc-
ed at the Mt House that morning,
one of the guests of the night was
far on his way to Elk City.
This may be the winter of our dis.
content, but evidently the wholesale
houses have failed to note any diff
ference in trade.-Elk City Mining
