TELEPHONE LINE
TO PORTHILL
kootensi Valley People Planning To
Construct a rs Mile Tele-
phone Line.
WILL CAPITALIZE AT $4,000


Preliminary steps were taken
yesterday towards the organization
of the Kootenai Valley Indepen-
dent Telephone company at a
meeting held in this city by repre-
sentatives of the Copeland Port
hill and Boomers Ferry districts.
T.. f.. Elliott was elected chairman
of the organization committee COM
posed of John Hall, j. H. Guthrie,
]. l.. Washburn, F.. +. Fry, O. II.
Campbell and Louis Erlenwein.
1t is planned that the Kootenai
Valley Independent Telephone
company shall be a joint stock
organization to be capitalized at
$40, 900. 1t is proposed TO string
over 20 miles of telephone wire con-
Meeting Boomers Ferry, Copeland,
Porthill and Creston. Arrange
ments have been made by which the
Kootenai valley Independent Tele-
phone company will connect with
the exchange secvict of the tele-
phone companies at Creston, b c.
and in this city
Stock in the new company will
be sold at S25 per share. This

1t is anticipated that there will be
little trouble in securing sufficient
funds for the new enterprise as a
telephone line from this city to
Copeland and Porthill is becoming
more and more of a necessity.

TEARS LEAVES
FROM BIBLE
Rev. Martin Rhodes Removes Passages
From Bible Pertaining to
Condemned Practices
DANCING AND CARDS WRONG
Pastor Severely Criticizes Members
Of Christian Church.

Members of the Christian church
congregation attended a service
last Sunday which varied consider
ably from the regular form.
When Rev. ]. Martin Rhoades.
pastor of the local Christian church,
arrived here last week from Sand
point to look after the interests OF
the congregation he was informed
that some of the members OF his
church were in favor of the plan,
which had been agitated about the
town, to form a union church OF
all the various congregations of
Boomers Ferry. 1t seems that Rev.
Rhoades was also informed that
some of his congregation were not
satisfied with the stand the pastor
had previously taken upon the
question of the right and wrong of
dancing and card playing.
AT the beginning of his sermon
Rev. Rhoades severely criticized
the members of his congregation
who INDUCED in cards and dane
ing and insisted that Christians
could not indulge in these amuse-
ments. Taking a small bible Rev.
Shoades turned to the various pas
sages of the Scriptures which he
interpreted as forbidding many of
the practices of his congregation
and tore out the leaves, one by
one, after he had read the verses
pertaining to the discussion.
When he had finished there was
but little left of the book as the
speaker did not stop until he had
gone through with the majority of
the practices condemned by the
Christian church. Rev Rhoades
then informed his congregation
that if they wanted to dance and
| play cards they must do so in vio-
lation of the commands set forth in
the Bible.
Members of the Christian church
congregation were considerably
worked up as a result of the service
and some have upheld their pas
tors criticisms and others have
claimed that he was too severe.
The deacons of the church have
called meeting of all members I'd
be held Sunday evening at which
time it will be decided as to
whether or not the regular services
will be continued.

A Real Comedy Soon To Be Here.

Mr. Will H. Dorbin, who plays
the title role in THE Man on the
Box, is a truly delightful come
dian. He is so bubbling over with
genuine friendly humor; he is so
manly to look at; he seems to enjoy
so thoroughly the points of his play
and your enjoyment of them; even
his restlessness seems a sort of safe
ty valve for a pressure of fun that
is too high to be worked off verbal
ly; he is such finished artist in
laugh making, that he infects his
audience with the spirit of fun.
To see this play with Mr.. Dorbin
is treat, indeed. Miss Bernice
Trousdale, who plays the part of
Miss Betty Annesley, is delightful
in the extreme. She is hand
some woman, far above the aver
age, and the beautiful gowns that
She wears makes her a striking pic
ture. The balance of the cast is
said to be adequate. The Man on
the Box will be seen at the Utopia
Theatre on Friday, April, 20.
