Quiet Sunday Wedding.

The marriage of DR.. JIM. Verberk-
NOSE and Miss Elva Gates took place
here last Sunday at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. John Quinlan, Rev. Lither-
land Of the Presbyterian church Off
ciating. The wedding was a real
quiet affair, only few close friends
being present.
DR.. Verberkmose came to Kooskia
lass summer from w isconsin, buckled
into the hard work which comes the
way Of the young doctor in new
country, and proceeded to build up a
practice, in which he has succeeded
admirably.
Miss Gates made application for the
position of teacher in the kooskia
schools last summer while a resident
of Wisconsin. She secured the school,
but the Wisconsin school teacher never
knew the Wisconsin doctor until they
met in Kooskia during the fair last
fall. They talked about Wisconsin,
of course, wondered how they drifted
SO far away from home, and Dan
Cupid did the rest.
The happy couple departed Mon.
day morning for Spokane and other
outside points and before this issue
reaches its readers they will be al
home in the Fem cottage on River
street where the doctor has had his
Office for several months
The bride is popular with parents
and pupils and has decided to con
tinue to teach until the close of the
present school term-Kooskia Noun
taineer.

High Priced.

Radium costs over SIS, 100000 per
pound, and it is not expected that
VIM. B. Batty carries hatfull, but
it is fact that he will bring several
tiny tubes Of the marvellous substance
to show to the audience and to per-
form experiments with, at the Opera
House, March 1st.
The term mystery seems made
quate in referring to Radium, "mir-
acle" appears none too Strong. Each
particle of this wonderful mineral
constantly gives heat and light and
'perpetually" throws off the tiniest
particles of itself, yet apparently does
not diminish in weight or strength,
and scientists estimate this phenome-
non will continue for many thousands
of years before radium dies out Ex.

State Board Of Equalization Takes
Step in that Direction.
IDAHO IN THREE DISTRICTS
New Officials Start Work on March
Is and End in August.

Idaho took long step in the direc-
ton of a tax commission last week,
when the state brard Of equalization,
at an adjourned meeting in the gov
ernor's Office, virtually decided to di-
vide the state into three districts, one
including Idaho county and all coun-
ties north, and the remaining two to
be formed equally from the territory
lying south of the Idaho county line.
This action is born of an effort to
facilitate the work of the state board
in securing the equalization of taxes.
1t is also probable, though not at
all definite as yet, that the board will
select tax commissioner from each Of
these three districts, these commits
sioners to prepare reports of actual
values of property in their respective
districts for the consideration of that
board at its regular meeting in Au-
gust.
The board has not yet taken formal
action in the selection of commission
ers, but in case such appointments are
decided upon, the names of the ap-
pointees will be announced as soon as
made.
viii Start Work Soon.
Discussion of the proposed plan by
the members of the board at last
weeks meeting led to the conclusions,
PRACTICAL, that the newly chosen tax
commissioners should begin the work
assigned to them on March Is in the
three districts, and that their salary
during the time actually engaged in
service for the state should be fixed
at 50 per day and necessary expenses
1t was also suggested that an expert
in such matters be employed by the
board to investigate conditions and to
prepare like report upon the value
of railroads, telegraph and telephone
lines in the state. Upon this, how
ever, like the other issues taken up
last week, nothing definite was de-
cided.
Term Runs Till August.
Regarding the term of office of the
proposed commissioners, the members
Of the board unanimously expressed
the opinion that the limit should be
placed at the August meeting, but the
board reserves the power to remove
commissioner, or all the commission
ers, at any period in the meantime,
should such action be deemed neces-
sary.
In speaking Of available men who
might be considered as timber for the
proposed commissionership in the
various districts, Governor Hawley
said:
Politics will not be allowed to
warp the boards judgment in this
matter. Neither will position, occu-
patton or any other influence than
fitness and efficiency for the office be
considered If the board makes these
appointments there will be no favor.
} itism; we want men who will not be
/ influenced under any condition or by
any interest; men who are capable
and willing to do the work as the
board assigns it to them.''

SCORING OF GOLF

was the case with Thompson's protest
A prominent golfer who was present
during every phase of the dispute at
Apawamis and has had wide expert
ence in tournament matters, thus ana
lyzed the case:
The singular thing about 1t is that
the official scorer, furnished by the
Metropolitan Golf association, never
retracted his score He stuck to Ii that
he was right and that Thompson got
three and not four on the 18th. The
card had been taken from him and
entered on the board as official The
rule says there can be no alteration of
score after 1t has gone on the board.
Manifestly this is intended to prevent
man from improving his score by
changes from memory, especially IT,
after he turns In his card. he finds he
needs one or two strokes less to win
this or that prize. 1t cannot be believed
for moment that the rule intended
that man should not alter his card If
this alteration made 1t worse.
Il believe also 1t was an error to
hold that not satisfying ones self of
| the correctness of a score brings dis
qualification. The word must in the
first line of section CD is not compul-
sorry in the sense of entailing disquali-
fcation if not obeyed. I hold that the
penalty is specified in the concluding
clause of the sentence, namely, as no
alteration can be made etc. That is
the penalty-no alteration. The phrase

advice is not a breach OF the rule and
does not entail disqualification"
A few years ago George Low, the
professional at Baltusrol, partnered
with Alex Smith, Wykagyl playing
against the late Willie Anderson and
Isaac Mackie. Fox Hills, Staten Island,
over the latter course, showed what
kind of sterling honesty he was made
of. These four pros were in an exhi-
bition 36-hole match for a large purse,
and, when the players and the large
gallery retired for lunch at the end of
the morning round, the match was all
square. Starting in the afternoon the
excitement among those composing the
gallery ran high. Going to the second
hole, "Old George" as he is Familiarity
called, pulled his tee shot away off the
course down into a deep ravine. No

the ball. No one was in a position to
see him play out. all having pressed
along close upon the heels of the other
, three, supposing, OF course, that Low

catch up. Presently a ball shot up

supposed George had played his second
