MANY BEAUTIFUL GOWNS
WORN AT THE RECEPTION

The gowns of the women were typical
of the season and the place, and were
among the most beautiful and elaborate
ever seen there.
Mrs. Taft wore heavy brocaded satin,
the ground Of white and the brocade In
silver flowers. It had a long, graceful
court train and was cut square neck. and
she wore pearls and diamonds, and car
ried q large bouquet of pink roses tied
with long pink ribbons.
Miss Taft wore Alice blue satin, veiled
with pink chiffon.
Mrs. Charles Anderson, sister Of Mrs.
Taft, was in white satin veiled with
black chiffon cloth, pearl ornaments.
Miss Heron, sister Of Mrs. Taft, white
satin.
Mrs. Henry W. Taft, Of New York,
sister-in-Iaw Of the President. white
satin and crystals with diamonds.
Mrs. Sherman, wife of the Vice Presi-
dent, never looked more attractive than
in her gown of gray chiffon cloth over
pink satin, with ornaments of pearls and
diamonds.
The Cabinet circle was not complete.
as Mrs. Fisher, wife of the Secretary Of
the Interior, could not come from their
home in Chicago at this time.
Mrs. Knox, wife of the Secretary of
State, wore one of the most artistic and
elaborate gowns Of the evening. 1t was
of black chiffon over black satin en-
broidered with white chalk beads, with
a deep knee band of the embroidery, q
black sash with fringe of the beads, and
much embroidery upon the bodice.
Mrs. MacVeagh, wife of the Secretary

General silver gray satin veiled with
black thread lace, with pearls and dia-
nnonds.
Mrs. NageI, wife of the Secretary Of
Commerce and Labor, white satin and
pearls.
The diplomatic circle is very incomplete,
owing to the establishment Of many of
the embassies and legations in their sum-
mer quarters, so far away as to make 1t
impossible for their members to return.
Only two ambassadors wives are in the
city, Mrs. Bryce, wife of the British AM
bassador, who is remaining late in town,
being called away Sunday by the very
serious illness of Mrs. Young, wife of the
first secretary of the embassy.
The others who were present at the
silver wedding were Nine. Jusserand, wife
Of the French Ambassador, who wore
green satin embroidered in silver, with
pearls and emeralds.

Ambassador, who wore an elaborate gown
of orange satin with overdrapery Of
white lace studded with pearls, a dia-
mond tiara, pearl dog collar, and pearl
necklace.
Mrs. Nicholas Longworth (nee Roose-
velt), the former White House belle, who
was the central figure, next to the Presi-
dent, in ths party which accompanied him
to the Philippines. and who is one of the
Tafts' closest friends, wore a character

Nampa a Gutter.

If the two local newspapers are a
criterion to go by, our sister town OF
Nampa is in bad way spiritually,
financially, intellectually and is COM
munity divided against itself, where
malice, hatred, ill-will, vindictiveness,
rancor and spleen reign supreme. To
cap the climax she7has proven herself
to be q rebel and wants to secedo from
the best and greatest county in this
fair state of Idaho and get into one
where king booze is boss.
Nampa now raises the howl that
there is prejudice against her in other
parts of Canyon county and that it is
out Of harmony with her. The princi-
pal reason given for 1t is because the
county went dry and she has brew
cry, which, by the way, is now running
and shipping booze to Ontario, Oregon
a few miles away, and then rebilline
it and distributing the good feeling
fluid to the parched threats of the
Canyon countyites, from which on,
might infer that other portions of tn,
county were even dryer" than Nampa
If a feeling does exist between
Nampa and other parts of the county
it is unknown to the Examiner, hut II
she keeps up her present lick there
will be quite a stong one, for yor
know the old nick himself hates a quit
ter, and Nampa is placing herself IL
that class.
Better stay in the fold, Nampa, we
know you have the best of the booz,
proposition in Canyon county, but W,
have the best of the Almighty's gifts

CALDWELL LAW FIRM FILES
BRIEF IN INTERESTIN AND
IATPORTA CASE

]. NJ Thompson of the law firm Of
Rice, Thompson & Buckner, was at
Boise Wednesday afternoon for the
purpose of filing in the supreme coutr
respondents brief in the case of
David Hannah, respondent, VS.. w. w.
Vensel, appellant. The case grows out
of loan made Mr.. Hannah by Mr..
vensel, for the security of which a
deed was given. This action was
brought to have the deed decreed a
mortgage The court in this district
so decreed, hence the appeal to the
supreme court.
The testimony addused in the trial
court shows that Mr.. Vensel in Novem-
Der, 1898, loaned Mr.. Hannah $1,000
and that the deed was given to secure
the loan. At this time both parties
were residents of the state of Penn
sylvania. The defendant contends
that the laws Of Pennsylvania should
apply, while the plaintiff holds that as
the land was situated in Idaho the laws
Of this state should hold; that the
mortgage did not vest title in the de-
fendent under the laws of the state
of Idaho, but the title remained in the
plaintiff, and that the mortgage
created merely a lien on the land.
"Once a mortgage always mortgage"
and the mortgagor has the right to re-
deem unless the right to redeem has
been foreclosed.
The case was tried before the court,
without jury, in September, 1909.
After the hearing the court took the
matter under advisement, and on the
25th day of April, 1910, the court made
it's findings of fact and conclusions OF
law, and decreed in favor of the plain
tiff and against the defendant. De-
PENDANT made application for a new
trial which was Overruled by the
court on the 10th day of October, 1910.
Defendant appealed from said order
overruling motion for new trial and
from the judgment and decree.
