CELEBRATES DEATH OF KIN
American Woman in Paris Gives Din.
ner in Honor of Mother-in- Laws
Demise, Only to Find Error.

Paris.-Many strange things happen
in Paris, but the most weird and
CHASTITY expression of novel social en-
tertainments this season was a dinner
given b. a certain New York woman,
celebrating, as she thought, the death
of her rich mother-in-law. The lady
has been in Paris since the close of
the Nice season. Her husband, who
does not care for butterfly life So
ciety. remains in the villa at Nice.
The other day she received a tele-
gram from her husband, which read:
Mother is dead" Thinking it was
the wealthy mother of her husband.
she invited friends to dinner, saying
she was going to celebrate a new and
better era in her life, which the for
tune Of her mother-in-law would bring.
Some of the more sensitive guests re-
belled inwardly at the idea, but the
dinner went on. Next day the hostess
sent apologies to her guests, saying
1t was not her mother-in-law who had
died, but her own mother. The mis-
take arose by her husband merely re-
peating a c%ablegram received for her
at Nice.

AIMS TO ABOLISH TROUSERS
Berlin Society Of Scholars and Artists
Proposes New and Unique Gar.

Berlin.-A society Of seventy per-

the purpose Of reforming the style OF
mems garments. It Is composed OF
persons from all sorts of professions
and aims at abolishing trousers, sub
%stituting knickerbockers; while coat
and wafstcoat are to give way to a
sort of loose blouse hanging we'll

is to be discarded.
The newspapers treat the matter as

them challenge the members OF the
society themselves to appear in pub

zette goes deeper and points out that
Germany can have no influence over

RUNAWAY BOYS FIND ERROR
Cincinnati and Writes Injunction
to All Youths.

Cincinnati.-Frank Heiber and Jo-
seph Lechner OF Pittsburg, both aged
fifteen, who started out to see the
world a few days ago. were found
early the other morning sleeping un-
der the Cincinnati & Ohio bridge in
Cincinnati. They told the officers
that they had come to Cincinnati in
a parlor car, and thought they were
going to see the entire world. How
ever, their money soon gave out and
they were forced to sleep anywhere
they could find a place to lie down.
Heiber said his father died last
March. and that his mother is very
sick. He doesn't know why he left
her. The officials will send them
both home. Heiber has written the
following injunction to all youths:
'Boys-Never leave home. It is
the best place on earth.
IT you ever feel the laundering
to see the world, ask your home folks
what is the best thing to do.

New York.-A woman who de-
scribed herself as Mrs. J. j.. Day OF
BIT West Ninety-third street intended
to go to Coney island, but didn't go.
Instead she would have arrived at
Albany, but for the act of a tugboat
captain, who took her off the Frank
Jones, a Hudson river steamboat,
somewhere in the neighborhood of
TarrytOwn, and returned her safe
and sound to what she described as
her waiting husband" and bride

Mrs. Day denied that she had figured
IN the transfer, and intimated that the
woman was a girl friend, who is her
guest.
The woman wanted to go aboard
one of the Iron Steamboat company's
vessels, but failed to realize she was

BRIDE IN DISTRESS

At this critical stage Captain VI
ster Davis, who was a board the
Frank Jones. saw a towboat belong
ing to the Cornell Towing line, of
which he is superintendent. Snatch
ing the m%egaphone he hailed the tug
boat and ordered it alongside. The
woman amid cheers and congratula-
tons. was placed on board the tug
and returned to Manhattan.
When Mr.. and Mrs. Day learned of
the report that the passenger had
given the name of Mrs. Day, they de-
clared they had both been at home
on the day in question. They re-
fused to give the name Of the young
woman who is their guest, but some
Of their friends were discussing,
amid giggles, the subterfuge of the
bride" who did not want to take a
trip to Albany instead OF one to
Coney.

st. Louis.-Piasa Chautauqua was
aroused soon after the arrival of the
steamer Alton, by a volley Of smacks.
Several men and women ran down to
the river and beheld a young woman
and a swain in blue serge, sitting close
together on the beach. One of his
hands was clasped firmly in hers.
With regularity he popped his
lips upon hers and each kiss was SO
vigorous as to be audible. In a few
minutes the news spread throughout
the resort. Swimming pools and walk
ing paths were deserted and scores Of
persons flocked to points of vantage.
In reply to jeers the young mar
cried: You fellows are only jealous.
Don't you wish 1t were your" The
e%nraptured pair remained absorbed In
one another until it was time to take
the steamer back to St. Louis. The
girl was a brunette about % years
old and was prettily dressed. The
man seemed a few years older.

pose of the Nugget, but we have
found that it is impossible to be

work the personal supervision
that itrequires.
We have found many dear
friends in Owyhee County and
we hope madefew, if any, enemies.
Our aim has been to uphold the
best interests of the surrounding

charge of the Nugget and thank
the patrons for their loyalty to
the home paper and liberal
patronage. We hope that the

THE PRESIDENT TO DATE.

1t is said that President Taft
is disappointed at the result of
the election in Canada; that is
liable to be true. He was also
disappointed that the Senate
did not promptly ratify the arbi-
tration treaties, and now on the
rostrum he is spending much
time in iustifying his vetoes OF
the tariff bill and the Arizona
and New Mexico statehood bills.
He was pledged to tariff reduc-
tion and unless the bills are
passed, would, by their action,
have worked some vital wrong,
on other clauses of the tariff,
that is, unless if their indirect re-
suit would have done more harm
than their direct effect, he had
no legitimate reason for vetoing
the bill. We think, too, hemade
a great mistake in vetoing the
statehood bill; that his approval
on the score that he did not feel
justified in denying statehood to
thousand American citi-
zens, though at the same time he
desired to protest against there
call clause so far as judges were
included would have been the
