Mr.. Geo. b. lIawbecker returned YES

ley, in company with Mr.. G. ID. Gallen-
tine. These gentlemen are giving the
orchard question in this section much
consideration, and already have large
acreage OF trees planted, and this trip
was made for the expressed purpose OF
studying the conditions Of the fruit indus
try III that section. They visited several
orchards, among which was one compos.
cd OF year old cherry trees from which
was picked this season iron 20 to 30 gal.
Ions OF cherries from each tree. A 4(
acre prune orchard was visited whicl
is owned by German, who has become

from this orchard. AS to the general la,

The Melon Outlook.

Mr.. A. F. Wood, Manager Of the Pay
cite Valley Melon Growers ASSN, was
in town Tuesday, and, in company with
Mr.. Jaycox, the secretary OF the ASS n
here, went over a portion OF the melon
acreage in this section, and was much
surprised at the condition OF the crop.
He says that while We are about ten days
later than the Payette country, he feels
confident that this years crop can he
disposed Of TO good advantage.
At meeting OF the board OF directors
Of the association held later, it was
agreed to work in conjunction with tn,

Taken to Boise

Mr.. Ed. Gill whose frequent attacks
OF illness have been recently noted, was
removed to Boise last Friday, to under
go an operation for an acute attack OF
gall stones, which was successfully per-
formed Saturday morning. Mr. Gill has
been suffering from this malady for the
past 10 or II years, having been able to
obtain only temporary relief, and his
recent attacks made it imperative that
an operation be performed.
A letter received by friends here from
Mr.. Gill, states that while the operation
was successful, complications have set in
that makes the condition of Mr.. Gill
quite alarming.

SURPRISES our own Citizens

Mr.. and Mrs. John Jacobson have
been residents OF Jerome for some time,
Mr.. j. owning two farms in this section
which he is developing. Sunday last
Mrs. jacobson was persuaded to take a
drive through the country, which, while
living in Jerome all this time, was the
first trip she had taken through the sur
rounding country for two years, and she
could hardly believe the sights that met
her gaze While always booster for
Southern Idaho, she says she never rea-
lied what changes could be brought
about in so short time, and she re-
turned to town more enthusiastic than
ever, and it is safe TO predict that her
visits to the country will become more
frequent hereafter.

NORTH SIDE WAREHOUSE & Con-. Co.

The village trustees met last Thurs
day evening and the session proved
quite AN interesting one. The side
walk matter was discussed at some
length, and motion to proceed with
the work was lost, trustee Busse voting
in the negative. Nothing further was
done in the matter of granting the fran
chise asked, AS the committee wished
for more time in which to consider the
same. While there is no apparent OPP
position to granting the franchises the
trustees are determined to guard the
interests OF the citizens OF the town in
the matter, and will demand som'
changes in the question OF rates, which
they deem is to the interests OF the towr
in general. The matter will come W
for hearing again next Tuesday evening

SCHOOL MATTERS
The Board has an Interesting Session
Over the Location OF School
Houses.

The proposition OF the school board to
establish school houses in various local
tiles in the district, is not meeting with
the nnanimity among the farmers that it
Was thought it would. The principal
aim Of the board in establishing these
various schools was for the purpose OF
eliminating the long hauls that are now
necessary 10 bring some OF the smaller
children to the town school.
At the meeting of the board last Fri
day evening, this opposition manifested
itself quite prominently, when the board
had up the question of schools for the
benefit Of the patrons north and east OF
town. An erroneous impression seems
TO prevail among some to the effect that
it is the intention to establish the old
fashioned country school. Such how
ever, is not the intention OF the board.
simply an enlargement OF the school sys-
tenn as carried on in town, and the man
agement OF these outlying schools would
be under the direction Of the supernten-
dent OF the town schools, with the same
class of teachers, and the work would be
precisely the same.
1t has been demonstrated since the
erection of the new building, that insult
ficient room will be provided for all
scholars should the present system be
carried out, which OF course would ne
cessitate the establishment Of ward schools
in town. To better accommodate the
smaller children from the country, it was
deemed advisable to locate these ward
schools in centrally located districts,
where probably the first eight grades
would he taught, the same AZ if ward
school was instituted in town.
Petitions and circumstances were both
received, and large representation OF
the farmers north and east were present
on Friday evening TO voice their senti-
ments, and after lengthy discussion Of
the matter the question was laid ovel
until the next regular meeting OF the
board
Mr.. Hoskins presented a petition from
several patrons asking that schoo
house be built on the corner OF section
in township Q, representing that from 2;
to 80 scholars would be Accommodated
On motion it was ordered by the board
that building be erected as requested
The recommendation of the COMMITTEES
on the location OF the building five mile
west Of town, on the Wendell road, wa
also accepted, and the same ordered t
he built. The location of the building
north and east Of town will come up TO
discussion again at the meeting tomorrow
evening.
A committee from the Civic Club ap
peared before the board, asking permits
sion to hold house warming at the ney
school house, the proceeds to be used il
buying pictures for the school. TIL
matter was referred TO 4 committee, witt
power TO act.
p. K. Kartzke presented bid for TN
building OF sidewalks around the ne'
= school house, and the work was ordere
d, done.
The board will meet in regular sessio
: again Friday evening.

 lurements of the crimson ribbon and the charms of the handsome stripling. He was much younger than Nan, to be sure,
 but then your mature virgins always like lover younger than themselves and a young man must always fall in love with
 woman older than himself before he
 falls in love with one of his own age. So Jasper Jugg was wildly jealous and the peddler had been banging about Haddon even as Sir John Manners had, deterred from making a public appear ance at the hall for fear of Jasper's cudgel. even as Sir John Manners hesi- tated to brave the wrath of Sir George Vernon. But however much Nan was interested in her own love affairs, she was of no disposition to help out her mistress with hers, and Dorothy felt that 1t was useless to try to bribe or cajole the woman into helping her to escape from her prison or to make use of her to carry any message to Lord John Manners. Such a message would be likely to be taken straight to Sir George.
 The lord of Haddon soon relented from his severity to his daughter, how ever. and removed the guard from the gallery leading to the crossbow room. He sent for Dorothy to come to him and pleaded with her. weeping much the while-and 1t was not often in his life that Sir George Vernon wept. Dorothy. too, was much moved and threw herself into her fathers arms with tears and protestations of her af- lection. But the girl would promise nothing. and so, though she was not kept a close prisoner any longer, she was not allowed to leave the house and must occupy at night the room next the crossbow room being always, night and day, under the watchful eye of
 Nan Malkin. But Cupid. angry with Nan, was about to play her trick. Sir John Manners and the peddler, both lurking about Haddon Chase for news of their loves. met and. upon the ped- dler confessing his story. Sir John con- cocted a scheme.
 There was to be great feast at Had don Hall. which was now crowded with a company of the most noble in all the land. The King of the Peak had sent
 out invitations far and wide, and never was an invitation to Haddon Hall dis
 regarded in the days when the Yer
 nons reigned there in their riches and
 their pride. It was a great hunting feast and the beauty and high blood of Derbyshire were assembled. Lords of
 distant counties came. for to bend a
 bow or "brittel" deer under the eyes
 of Sir George Vernon was an honor
 sought by many. Over the Chase of Haddon, over the Hill of stanton, over Bakewell-edge. over Chatsworth Hill and Hardwicke Plain and beneath the
 ancient castle of Bolsover, az far as the | edge of the old forest of Sherwood,
 were the sounds of the arquebuses and
 the bowstring heard and the cry of
 dogs and the cheering of men. The
 brown-mouthed and white-footed dogs
 of Derbyshire were there among the
 foremost the snow-white. hound and l the coal l-black from the Scottish bor-

 Jasper Jugg. the forester who did ap- prove of the matter. was deeply in love with buxom Nan. But Nan turned ever a deaf ear to his protestations. Not that Nan was above or beyond love--not bit of 1t. Thirty years had not left her heart so cold that 1t was incapable of being fired with the tender passion. Only her heart was set upon a certain north ooun- try peddler whom she had met at the last Balsewell fair. where the young man had given her three yards of crimson ribbon to trim her peachblow mantle with.

The story of the elopement of the beautiful Dorothy Vernon with Sir John Manners to one of those "romances of the peerage" which have often been told in prose and rhyme and one which never fails to find listeners. The story Nitself Is true one. of course-one of . those rare cases where history for gets itself and indulges In light and agreeable romance of action, working out a real love story with lords and ladies, knights and naughty barons, and all the trite but ever-fasclnating de- tails. The story has been embroidered and decorated by many authors, but by none so charmingly as by Allan Cum ningham, who, apprenticed in his youth to a stone mason, became a lamp of literature and secretary to the sculptor Chantrey. The stream of pilgrims that annually visit Haddon Hall shows that the tale of Dorothy Vernon has last ing hold on the imaginations and affec- tions of the English speaking race As for the Dukes of Rutland. they have been for centuries more proud of Do- rothy and John than of all their other noble ancestors and ancestresses put together. and would rather give up Belvoir castle than the story of their elopement.
