In the habit Of drinking tea at much

At the wedding feast of Richard,

Dan MacQuinn. who runs a general

shelves about the storeroom. Directly
In the center of the room was an i'm

shelves. on which was arranged a
wide variety Of pieces Of tinware all
marked in bold figures.
About the time the store was packed
with bargain seekers there came a ter

tipped over the case. and the tinware
was scattered everywhere. but not

piece of the ware he would sell every

from 10 to 10 cents Dan sold every
piece right from the floor and did it in
less than FIVE minutes.
If any one of the bargain seekers
had happened around the store after
the sale was over they would have

GAVE ALL He HAD.

The Romantic Story of an Old Cali
fornia Miner.
'The finest gentleman ever knew"
said Mark Twain once, was an old
California miner who could barely
write his own name. He was a forty
niner. and he and his partner had
struck it rich in the early days. The
old man had neither chick nor child,
and he had worked hard all his life,
and when he did get his money he
hardly knew what to do with it.
HE did not try to jump into society
or to push his way with the big fell
lows there. He continued to live with
the people whom he had associated
with all his life, and many an act Of
kindness was done. many a wandering
son and father saved. many a sorrow
ing woman's burden lightened and her
home frightened by an unknown do
nor, whose identity with the old man
was only known to few.
ut was different with the partner
He had wife and two daughters with
social aspirations. and after a whole
lot of pushing and hauling and shov-
ing they landed in society The ex-
Dense was too much of drain on the
husbands purse. and he speculated
with the inevitable outcome. He lost
mis- entire fortune and then shot him
self. Then it was that the true gen.
tleness of the old man showed itself
The widow and her daughters had no
one to turn to but him. and he did not
disappoint them. He saved their home
for them when everything else went
under the hammer, and he maintained
them In all the regal style to which
they were accustomed. although be
still lived in his old lodgings. He lived
long enough to see both of the girls
well married and the mother carefully
settled in life. Then he died in
charity hospital in San Francisco. He
had spent every penny he owned on
the family Of his partner"

to be married. Nobody knows just who
the girl is. but they say she is from

house on his lot. 1t is called the

Dorinda laid the letter aside and
went about her household tasks with
a strange pressure on her heart.
The Maples-how bright and sun
shiny that sounded She knew how
strong and vigorous the naples grew
in Gilbert's new dooryard-just like
Gilbert himself-protecting and shield
ing. letting the warmth of the sun
shine filter through upon her starved
existence.
AS the spring advanced Dorinda
grew restless under the close confine-
ment of city life. and she thought
wistfully of the budding countryside
where she had always lived.
When she could no longer withstand
the call Dorinda begged holiday and
took a late afternoon train for Little
River. Dusk was falling when the
train drew into the fam1l1ar station,
and, pulling her veil closely about her
face that she need not be recognized
by old acquaintanees, Dorinda hurried
down the long yellow road toward the

there she might stay among the trees
for few minutes, inhale their fra

and untenanted save by memories.
Dorinda uttered stifled sob as she
came near the house and saw the cedar

of the young people to go for buggy

they went for the usual ride last Sunday
evening nothing was thought Of the mat

picion was at once aroused and inquiries
revealed the fact that they had driven TO
Gooding and had there taken the train
ior Utah. 1t seems there had been some
objections to the young couple getting

THE OLD SETTLERS
They VIII Enjoy Picnic at the
Reservoir, Friday Sept. 18th

The preliminary step in the forna-
ton of an old settlers organization has
been taken, and arrangements are now
under way by several OF the old timers
Tor an old fashioned basket picnic, to
be held in the vicinity Of the reservoir,
on Friday, September 18th. This pic
mic, however, will not be confined to
the old settler exclusively. but. all are
most cordially invited to bring their
basket and enjoy a day Of recreation,
and become better acquainted with one
another.
A program OF amusements will be
arranged, and some OF the ''old timers"
will be expected to give their experience
as pioneers. 1t is the desire Of those
having the arrangement for the picnic
in charge, to make this an annual
gathering, and the occasion will afford
an opportunity for the older settlers to
get together and formulate some plan
for a permanent organization. So lei
all who can, pack their baskets with
yellow legged chicken and other good
things, and come prepared to spend an
enjoyable day, Friday, Sept. 10Th.

IT MEANS MUCH

The action Of the State Land
Board last week is such as to give
more confidence than ever in the
future of the North Side tract, as
that body practically went ON
record as opposing the granting Of
any more Cary Act contracts until
il was demonstrated that there wa-
sufficient water available to meet
the present demands.
This action of the board means
much more to the Cary Act segre-
cations than would appear at first
glance. In their desire to acquire
more acreage, the irrigation com
panys throughout the state are in
clined to neglect the completion Of
projects under construction, to the
detriment of the settlers thereon
Under the recent decision Of the
board these companies will give
more attention to the completion
Of the systems in hand, that an
adequate flow Of water may bc
provided, ~ they cannot hope for
any further favors from the board
until this has been demonstrated
1t necessarily follows that an ex-
ira effort will be- eXerted in til,
completion Of our own system O
canals, and more attention glvel
to the distribution of water in an
ticipation of the early opening q
the 1000 acres now under consld
Grafton. This, A. We stated abov
will inspire more confidence on Ia
part Of the settlers now on tn
tract and Others who are scekinI
locations, and a. this situation be
comes generally known we ma.
look for more purchasers and per
mancnt settlers. Due credit shoul'
be given the board for their posi-
tion in this matter.

GOOD ADVICE

Gov. IIawlcy in his remarks be-
fore the land board meeting last
week, admonishcs the Co. here To-
place more confidence in the set
tiers on the tract and To cnlighten
them more regarding their plans
Ii il net TO he inferred from tins
that their financial transactions
and other private interests should
be thrown open to the public, but
ON the question of the availability
of water for the tract, the settlers
feel that their interests and the
company's are mutual, and such
a partnership cannot exist with
any degree Of satisfaction where
one of the partners does all of tn,
business, keeps the records and re-
fuses to render any accounting I,
the other. Had the company come
frankly before the settlers and eX
planned conditions n they existed
there is not q man on the tract wh'
would not freely have acquicsscd II
any plan the company might hav
proposed. On the contrary th
settlers were mislead, and deceivc'
10y erreroncous statements, whicI
90 far To shake the confidence alway
reposed in the management here
There is no tendency on the pal
of the association or any one else
to stand in the road of any ad
vancement the company wish
make, rs long as their interests al
not jeopardized, but when II come
to the question of water supply Il
their tract tley will insist TIN
their rights be guarded above a
things, and ii the company WI
give little due consideration
these rights, much friction can

Auditor Taylor said he thought
the settlers should meet the com
pany half way. lie knew little
about law, he said, but he knew a
great deal about lawyers, and he
did not blame the settlers for want
ing to safeguard their interests.
Attorney General McDougall
moveds that the Twin Falls North
Side company be permitted to charge
$50 an acre for water for the II 900
acres above the gravity system.
Secretary Clifford moved to amend
to the effect that the board grant
the application to increase the price
with the express understanding
that the question of the availability
of water supply he taken up by
the board when the contracts with
the settlers are up for consideration,
Both Attorney Hays and Attor-
ney llawlcy opposed this. Mr.
llawley took the position that the
adoption Of the motion would just
postpone the fight to a later day.
Attorney Hays said it would ham
per his company to such an extent
that it would not be justified in
turning wheel IN the district. He
insisted that the settlers were stand
ing III their own light; that the
money to be obtained from the
900 acre project was intended
to be used III curing the defects in
the Jerome and other reservoirs,
and that ii the company was to be
hampered and bothered at every
turn in this way it could not relieve
the situation and work out its
plans.
He said the company could moi
possibly take the settlers into it
confidence in all matters; that
financial turns, the securing of res
ervoir sites and other like matters
could not be discussed generally
not even with the settlers, for thu
reason that the information so giveI
