sure that the appearance of colored
trousers on the streets of Honolulu
would attract a great deal of atten-

After fish and poi had been partaken

of the old Hawaiian hula were wit

be present. Just as the last drop of

party were making ready to go home
an auto filled with tourists and three
large "square-faces" appeared on the
scene and the revelry started afresh.
Along about 2 a. m. the festive gath

Stub Rumors.

IT Is rumered that AS soon os
equipment is received from the
east, another car will be p ut on
.he BOISE Valley, establishing an
hourly service between Boise and
Meridian. There is also Some
talk OF stub line, from Meridian
to Onwiler, to meet all cars, poino
each way. This it is said will ha
a convenience to those living west
oI Ohwller, who have little or M
service now in getting into Ner.
ldlan, As to the value of a "stnh',
service, there is difference If
OPINION. While it would be an
accommodation in the manner
stated, there would be objections
other wise. Some don't like the
name of "Stub," others think wa
would thus lose all the ADVERTISING
OF being on the electric line out of
Boise. as the cars would run to
and from and Nampa, and the we'll
known "Merldian Car" would be
a thing Of the past. Others say
we would be inconvenienced bv
cars at OnwiIer. and
that on special days, it would mean
that the seats would already be
occupied and that tine Meridian
people would stand up" There
seems to be good reasons ON both
sides Of the argument, but it might
be well to try the stub" plan and
see how it works, The company
might be induced to retain on
heir cars a sign something like
his Boise Meridian Nampa"

ion.

Irrigation Water Plenty.

Chris Horton the Nampa-Mer-
ldian superintendent, told Times
man this week that there is the
best prospect for water for
irrigation this season Of any
time in seventeen years. Chris
ought to know as he has been on
the ground. He says the snow
fell early in the mountains, was
soaked and packed, and will 90 off
slow. There has been practically
no flood water in the Boise river
and this means a flow extending
to late in the fall. While the
amount of snow was not much
more than normal, the quality
was vastly superior This added
to the seasonable rains, will make
the crops this year in the Boise
valley go ahead Of anything in the
history of the state.
