illness, Reginald S. Towers, a native of
Christiansted, in the 63rd year Of his age.
Deceased lived III ST. Thomas quite n mum
Der of years and was we | and tavourably,

years ago and established in his profession

and maintained it, like in the sister isle,
owing to his gentlemauly demeanour, and

SURPRISE THEIR PRINCIPAL.

Friday evening, February third,
the teachers of the Westside school
pleasantly surprised their principal
Mrs. Boyd and the new second grade
teacher, Miss Bertha Christopher
with an elaborate five course dinner
served in the first grade room. The
table was elaborately decorated, the
place cards were especially pleasing.
The table was loaded with choice
specimens of the culinary art, any
one thinking that teachers cannot
cook would have been agreeably sur
prised had they been permitted to
partake of the bounties spread before
them. All made witty and pleasing
responses to the toasts proposed
by the toastmistress, Miss A'drich.
Miss Cree gracefully presided at the
head of the table This was as
suredly one of the most enjoyable
social events of the year.

SHORT LINE FILES
RIGHT OF WAY
First Move Looking Toward the Con-
struetion of the Owinza-Payette
Cut off Takes Place in the Camas
Prairie Country LasS Friday.

That the Owinza-Payette cut off
which places Boise on the main line
and gives to Payette what is practi-
cally another line of railroad, will
be built the coming season is evil
denced by the following report cop
led from the Camas Prairie Courier.
That paper says:
The right-of-way plat of the Rich
field-Camas Prairie line was filed
in the office of the county recorder
last Friday by the officials of the
Oregon Short Line. and the next
move on the Camas prairie railroad
checkerboard will be the appearance
of a representative of the company
with authority to secure a right-of-
way through the valley. He is like
ly to appear most any day, but It
is not anticipated that his work will
require much time, as the ranehers
of the valley are too anxious for
the road to throw any insurmounta-
BILE difficulties in the way of the
proposed line.
The procedure in the purchase of
a right-of-way through this valley
viii be simplified on account of
the fact that good many of the
ranches through which the road will
pass are homesteads. For these they
will receive the right-of-way from
the government, and the company
will pay damages to the owners OF
the filing.
The Commercial club of Soldier,
Idaho, has received additional as
surance that the line will be built
the coming season in the shape of
letter from d. E. Burley, General
Agent of the Short line,
in which he announces that work
will commence early this spring.
The Richfield-Camas Prairie line

igo for this end of the line shows
hat it will run from Owinza through

If this line in the spring will be re-

Masquerade Big Success.
The annual masquerade ball given
by the Deutscher Verin of this city
is usually a success, but the one
given last Friday evening eclipsed
all previous events Seventy-five
couples gathered at the hall to par
ticipate in the pleasure of the even
ing. The costumes were many of
them very elaborate and the judges
had a great deal of difficulty in
awarding the prizes. The music was
of the best and the big crowd was
a happy jolly fun loving one that
knew exactly how to while away
the hours dancing.
Ben Hodge won first prize for the
best gentleman's suit and Mrs. w.
R. O'Neil first for best lady's suit.

The double header game between
Emmett and Payette was the best
attended Of any game ever held in
Payette. The Gym at the Y. NJ. c..
A. was taxed to it's utmost and there
vas not even standing room for
sale by the time the games were
well under way. The Girls game
was played first, the Payette girls
outclassing Emmett at every stage
of the game. The score was 26 to
7 in favor of Payette.
A fiercer, faster and closer matched
game than the Boys game probably
never was pulled off in this part of
the State. The game was fast, but
at no time rough, every player going
into the game to win, but to win
fair. After playing for 20 minutes
at a breakneck speed. the first half
ended with score of 13 to 9 in
Payette's favor. The second half
was even faster than the first. 1t
was neck and neck race with Pay
cite the favorite During this half
with 19 minutes played and with on
ly a fraction of minute left to
play a whistle was blown and both
teams stopped playing. Emmett had
the ball and partly from force of
habit passed the ball from one man
to another until one of them threw
it into the basket. The referee, who
is also coach of the Emmett team
counted the score for Emmett, al
though the ball was dead. thus award
ing the game to Emmett. Had the
referee enforced the rule PayetteI
would have won by one point. AS it
now stands Emmett is ahead by one
point. The decision of the referee
Is under protest. The Emmett boys
are a fine lot Of fellows and were
fair in their playing The only un-
fairness was on the part of the
referee.
