County Fair at keytes-
willie is Proposed.

A county fair for Keytesvllle
and Charlton county, 10 oelng
talked of by merchants anc
business men of Keytesville, and
nv farmers living near here.
The results of the Fourth OF
Julv celebration here, both this
wear and last yea1, were 30 suc.
cessful, and made such gooo
feeling between the farmers ana
business men that it is believed
bv the progressive men here that
a county fair OF three or iour
davs would be q success. What
has been suggested by NUMBER
of men, since Charlton county
has no fair grounds, is that the
fair should be held in Keytesvllle'
much the same as 3 street talr'
hr1t with some vacant property
ty fitted up as q place for exhlo'
ting the different grains, pro.
dncts. etc., raised in the county.
ALSO to have buildings or sheds
provided in which to exhibit
stock and poultry, etc. Tne
commercial club will probably
have q meeting soon to discuss
suoh a venture and to md out
What can be done. Frank Ar
rinpton, in speaking OF the pro-
nosed fair said Wednesday. I'VE
FOUND that the farmers OF the
county were pleased with the
celebrations here on the Fourth
of July, and both times the town
was greatly benefited by sucn
celebr alton. We got into close
touch with the people living
around here and made friends
each time. l am in favor OF
having a fair of three or four
davs. which the merchants and
farmers will get up themselves,
such as was done here the Fourtn,
and let the farmers take a more
active part. Let them exhlolt
their crops, stock poultry and
products of all sorts. Amuse'
ments such as are usual at coun-
tv fairs should be provided, and
things done which would provide
for the comfort and entertain
ment of visitors. l believe 1t
would be sue oessful and
mighty good thing"
E. w. Herring, president OF
the Commercial club, Milt Ben
nett, DR.. A. C. Seiser, Wallace
Agee, B. F. Brewer. Jr., John
D. Taylor and a number of other
men here have all expressed
themselves heartily in favor of
such q fair.
The time proposed for having
a county fair is after the harvest
is over, and the farmers are iree
to leave their places, and while
their products are in the best
condition for exhibition.

High Water Damage mot Great.
The Musselfork creek over
flowed last week, after the heavy
rains. Not a great deal OF
damage was done, it is claimed
by the farmers, to either growing
or harvested crops, by the
Musselfork, but the damage done
by the East Fork Of the I hariton
river, below Shannondale is re-.
ported very heavy. The water
covered the tracks Of the Glas-
gov branch and was out over a
great deal of corn and tobacco,
according to reports from far
mers who live in that vicinity.
Wallace Agee said Wednesday
morning that while the Mussel.
fork flowed oyer some of the
bottom land, very little damage
was done. The heavy rain
caused some slight loss on the
hillside crops, near the creek the
water having washed out som g
corn and tobacco.

Railway Bridge Burns.

Nampa-What might have resulted
In serious wreck was avoided on
the Idaho Northern at the bridge
known as Trestle B, when workmen
on a large steam shovel not far from
the bridge discovered that it had
burned away and notified surrounding
stations. 1t is believed that the fire
was caused by sparks from the train
which passed over it last
1t is stated that fully $4,000 feet
OF lumber burned in the bridge, and
while officials refuse to give out
figures on the estimated loss, as yet,
1t will amount to many thousands OF
dollars.
All trains passing both ways were
caught before they left stations on
either side of the bridge, and a catas.
trophe was avoided. The bridge is
5l4 feet long, 60 feet high, and is one
OF the main bridges on the road.

year-old assistant postmaster of Julia
eta, who was indicted last week by
the Federal grand jury for embezzle-
ment and failure to deposit govern
ment postal receipts to the amount
OF $14OO, pleaded guilty to the second
count in the indictment, and United

Conviction FOR Libel

One of the first convictions for
criminal libel secured in Washington
in recent years was found against
John c. Pilver, editor and publisher
of the Underwriters Report. of San
Francisco, in a Seattle court early
this month, Pilver was arrested
while on a visit to Seattle. The
Northwestern Mutual Fire Associa-
ton was the complaining witness,
citing as libelous an editorial printed
by Pilver in September in which the
company was severely attacked in
regard to the payment of an insurance
claim. The rarity Of prosecutions for
criminal libel attracted attention to
the case. 1t was incumbent upon the
plaintiff company to prove that the
statements were both untruthful and
malicious and this having been done,
Justice Brown imposed fine of $500
for which an appeal was taken. II
developed that the article crlticisins
the insurance company was the out
growth of rivalry between old line
companies and the local Mutual COM
pany, which has been cutting wide
swath in the insurance field. TIE
company is suelng Pilver for $4,000
damages.

MAY CONTEST ELECTION

Boise-With a few precincts miss
ing, it is general conceded that Haw-
ley will have a plurality of approx
mately 1000 over Governor Brady.
Because the democratic slogan, LET
the People Rule" was placed on the
official ballot used in Custer and Ere
mont counties, charges have been
made that the election in the two
counties was illegal, ard prominent
republican leaders are contemplating
carrying a protest to the supreme
court of the state.
In the event the contemplated con.
test is started and the ballots held
to be illegal, material difference
would be made in the majorities
rolled up for the successful candidate
for governor, James H. Hawley, swho
was generally known as wet"
Fremont county alone gave Hawley
majority of approximately 1900
votes. Custer gave Brady majority
OF a little over 100 votes.
The secretary OF state certified the
slogan to the ballots, an act, it is al.
legged, that is entirely without his
jurisdiction
Contest action will have to be insti
tuted independently of Governor
Brady, who now admits his defeat and
declares he is content to abide by
the will of the people.

GLORIES OF THE NEGLlGEE
Present Styles Well Adapted for Max
ina Garment Both Comfortable
and Withholding.

The popular "negligee" is an inter
esting part of the average wardrobe.
In the past, when the wrapper" held
sway with housewives, this phase OF
the wardrobe was a thing to be de-
plored. 1t was possibly the Mother
Hubbard's" strenuous use late in the
last century that ousted the style
completely. It was about that time
that the tea gown came into strenuous
vogue, and even since that era the
negligee has been more slightly
whether the Mother Hubbard" wrap
ped and the tea gown had anything to
do with the transformation or not.
The limp materials used now and
the picture" styles are all suited to
the house gown, and unless a woman
is very seriously incapacitated from
obtaining pretty clothes there is no
reason why even the little morning
"slip on should not be becoming and
attractive. One finds in the shops all
sorts and kinds Of pretty dressing
sacques at wonderfully small prices.
They may be made at home with still
less expense, to be sure, and with bet
ter finish, if one is a good sewer. But
a large part Of the feminine popula-
ton is too busy in one way or another
to do sewing that can be obtained
ready made, and it certainly costs less
to buy garments ready made than to
hire them made.
There are women who have a seam
stress to help out with the sewing,
but such helpers are as hard to find
as the proverbial hens teeth.
Many of the thin cottons~ and silks
that are selling at reduced prices are
lust the thing for little house dresses
and sacques. For morning wear in the
family many women have come to
wear a white or colored linen or cot
ton wash skirt with a pretty sacque
Such sacques come with belts that
give them a trim look and have col
lars or kimono fronts.
The sacque with fitted back and
kimono front and belt that may be
dipped we'll at the waistline Is uni
versally becoming. Some very fine.
we'll finished batiste ones Of this kind
sell for less than dollar. The fronts
and backs are tucked. there is a XII
mono band down the front and around

What Alaska indians Smoke.

How would you enjoy a pipeful OF
wood shavings saturated - with q
strong solution of pepper as an after
dinner smoker" asked William F.
Quinn Of Portland, Ore. Strange as
this may seem as substitute for To-
bacco, 1t is nevertheless used as such
by Indians along the Alaska coast.
Their mouths are often made raw by
the practice, and the eyesight Of many
is affected by the stang fumes. 1t is
no uncommon practice among farmers
to smoke the leaves Of the tomato
and potato plants. While both these
plants contain a narcotic poison, the
smoking of leaves in moderation is
harmless. Excessive use, though.
produces a heavy stupor, from which
the smoker awakes with a terrific
headache and feeling Of utter ex.
haustion. Insanity and suicide have
often been caused by the immoderate
use of these two weeds. Rhubarb.
beet, and even garden sage leaves are
all smoked by farmers, but are per.
haps the least harmful of substitutes
for tobacco"

legation, two-story frame building,
the finest edifice in Honduras.
From the capital we set out for the
department of blanche and the placer
gold country. After leaving the city,
we followed narrow trails, the only
roads All travel and transportation is
by beast.
In blanche the attitude of the peo-
pie is as listless as elsewhere in the
republic, except that the women are
more industrious than the men, and in
fact they support the men and chill
dren by their own efforts. From May
to December all the streams are lined
with camps of native families engaged
in placer-gold washing. The women
are much more expert in this than the
men, and do practically all of the work
Nearly every stream in Honduras
bears gold, though seldom is it found
in sufficiently heavy deposits to justify
Americans in working it.
There are legends of fabulously rich
placer deposits in Mosquito, the
farthest northeast of the departments
of Honduras, and / have seen many
nuggets weighing from four to fifteen
ounces,s brought out by the Indians.
This region, however, is an unex-
plored jungle, impossible for beast and
nearly so for man.
In the northwestern part Of Hon.
duras are some very rich placer mines
worked by Americans, and few ledge
mines owned by foreigners. at San
Juancito, seven leagues east of the
capital, is the Rosario mine, owned
and operated by New York and native
capitalists, and this is the richest
mine in the country.
There are no industries worth the
mention in Honduras; the foreigners
are shy of investing, fearing the I'M
stableness of the government, and the
natives lack the capital whereWith to
develop their natural resources.
Concessions have been recently let
to American promoters for two rail-
roads, and work has been already begun
on the road from Iriona, in the de-
partment of Mosquito, to tap the rich
rubber and mahogany lands OF the in
terror. When these roads are COM
pleted, and an outlet is had for rich
rubber deposits, cattle and precious
woods. there is no reason why Hon
duras should not become a prosperous
republic, and country world-famous
for it's agricultural and mineral prod
ucts.
