pears on a platform all ears are
bent toward the speaker that no
thing he may say will be lost, for
every paragraph has meat in 1t,
cyCry thought is a kernel and
every idea advanced is an intel
leclual gem. Throughout his ad-
dress, the qu'etness was an elo-
quenl testimony to the earnest
listening of the people before him.
For an hour he talked, for an hour
there was scarcely the movement
Of position by his hearers.
The collection for the budget W; ,
announced at Il sum Of s36.75.
With grateful hearts to God for
a fruitful year and for the Opti-
mislic tone of the convention the
delegates departed for their homes.
The convention has passed into
history Of the church of the state
and will ever be remembered for
the fraternal feeling manifest and
for The kindness and hospitality of
the good people of ShOshone.
DR.. C.. A. Cook of Portland was
one Of the big guns at the Asso-
citation meeting. His part on the
program was to conduct confer
ences and as usual he kept every
one interested when he occupied
the platform. DR.. Cook is one of

thing doing every minute and
everyone is taking part in spite
of the stage fright usually pleaded.
Rev w. H. Bowler was one of
the Interested guests at the Asso-

MOTH MILLER Is VERY HARDY
Man Finds One in Library Book That
Apparently Had Been Closed
Many Years.

How long can a moth miller live
without air and Light" Is a question
puzzlng the bookworm.
II opened an old library book the
other day" he said, that had the an.
pearance Of having been closed for a
century, and on the very first page I
found moth miller. He lay llfeless
for few minutes, but pretty soon
ne began to wriggle, Now. ordinarily.
moth millers are my chief aversion. I
take a cruel delight in killing them,
but could not kill that moth miller
| played the role Of liberator instead
His helplessness touched me, and |
blew on him, fiicked him with nv fin
ger, and after awhile he was able to
fly away.
Now, what | would like to know
Is, how long had that insect been en-
tomhed? My curiosity carried me TO
the length of inquiring when the book
had been called for last. but the at.
tendant informed me that the bool,
was in the reference department. and
It would be a prodlgious labor to trace
the latest reader, so how long the
moth miller had suffered captivity Is
still mystery"

REBELS TRIAL IN PARIS
Working of conspirators' Institute
is Laid Bare In the French
Capital.

Extraordinary things are coming out
at the trial in Paris Of seven revolu-
tionists on the charge of having
threatened and sequestrated three OF
their comrades whom they suspected
OF betraying them, the one for the
space of 50 hours, another for IS
hours, and the third for IL, with the
result that their captives signed con-
LESSONS. The story Of two OF these
affairs having been related In some OF
the newspapers, the judicial authori-
ties instituted an inquiry, with the
result that warrants were issued for
the arrest of nine men. Three only
could be captured, as the rest had fed,
but four of the latter surrendered.
Meanwhile, 1t had been ascertained
that third revofutionfst had been
drawn into trap and also seQues.
trated, his papers being even seized
at his dwelling. When questioned he
and his fellow-prisoners assumed full
responsibility for what they had done,
and soon the presiding Judge re
marked:
"You have, like us, a detective de
partment, thanks to which you have
been able to intercept correspondence,
to shadow people, and to lay traps for
them. You have employed the classic
methods OF the police, and you have
also gendarmes, the jeunes-gardea
revolutionnaires. You have, too, your
magistrates, but there Is this differ
ence, that the accused are not assist
ed by counsel"
The person to whom this was ad.
dressed coollY replied that they left
brutal methods to the regular police.
Did the man who had undergone the
longest sequestration complain? mo,
poor fellow; he was only too glad to
get off SO cheaply. 1t might perhaps
hove been different with the republi.
cans of former days, who did not hest
tate to use daggers and revolyers
when they got rid of spies. Paris

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
CHANGE MEETING TIME

The county commissioners have
decided to meet in the evenings in
stead of during the afternoon This
is due to the fact that it is more
convenient for the members and be-
cause they find that they can ac-

they are less likely liable to be i'm
terrupted. County Clerk Jesse r.
Miller, who is also clerk OF the
board. is putting in double time
working both night and day; in the
day as county clerk aud at night as
