DUBOIS MAN HERE.

H. H. Long was down from Dubois
Wednesday and Thursday ON business
with the land office. He has been
engaged in the forest service for sew
eral years, and resigned the 5th of
August to open real estate office at
Dubois.
Mr. Long is civil engineer as we'll
as law student and is kept pretty
busy. He is familiar with the coun-
try for great distances in every direc-
ton, and his knowledge of these
things is of great value to the new
settlers in getting located in desirable
places. When man decides upon
where he will locate, Mr.. Long goes
out with his instrument and makes
sure of his corners and then makes
out his filing papers He reports
that over two hundred locations have
been made near Dubois recently and
settlers still arrive in punches every
few days, most of them looking for
places to use their enlarged home
stead rights. Mr.. Long keeps sup
ply of location blanks for taking land
and making mineral locations, leases
mortgages, agreements, ETC., and serv-
es the public in multitude of ways.
Dubois is 76 miles up the Short
Line nearly north of Blackfoot, and
is at the foot of hill where they
put on helper engines to take trains
to the top of the divide. The heavy
freight trains go up the forty-mile
hill with an engine on each end and
two in the middle.

SUNDAYS BENEFIT GAME.

Last Sunday the benefit ball game
at the fair grounds was the means of
raising nearly four hundred dollars,
which was turned over to w. H. Kes-
tner by loving hands. Mr.. Kestner
lost his health last year and his de-
cline has been source of much con-
Germ to all who know him.
An excursion of Elks and Odd Eel
lows came up from Pocatello making
merry in various ways, and the antics
of their German band" and the pro-
ceedings of the Kangaroo court"
conducted in the judges stand kept
the audiance in an uproar through
out the game which resulted in a
score of 2-2 in favor of both sides

THOSE NEW TEXT BOOKS.

With the opening of school this
year there is much agitation over
the changes in text books. The state
board of education has the power to
order any changes it sees fit, and the
discard of new books bought last
year makes a loss that is keenly felt
by the poor.
Whether all the changes were JUS
titled is a question for those giving
close study TO the subject, but certain
it is that publishers have in many
states pressed these changes upon
the officials with such frequency that
text book scandals have been matters
of great concern, and Idahoans are
easy marks for grafters.

On only one point in connection
with the application for padon did
Orchard decline to speak freely. He
was unwilling to say what object the
church association has in applying for
his pardon. He admitted he knew
what that object was, but said he
did not wish to embarass the organi-
zation in any way and would prefer
that it be allowed to make any state
ment that may be forthcoming along
that line.
While not working actively for his
cwn pardon, Orcahrd is willing that
anyone else should, and while not
trying to excuse his crimes, he says
ne will be willing to receive any con-
sideration the state may give him.

Trimminos From Chinese skirts.

Chinese skirts in the original Ger
tainly possess as many varied uses as
the famous pOrker, whose only loss is
its squeaI. The front and back panels,
with their rich embroideries in Picking
stitch, make exquisite long sailor col
lars which viii miraculously turn your
most commonplace frock into a veri-

of two-toned Chinese blue embroidery
landings make trimming galore for a
stunning gown and hat A striking
parasol in these days of unique ones,
is made from the skirts pleated and
embroidered sides, and an equally ef-
fective piano lamp shade can be
evolved from the same, with the addi-
ton of the panels.

~ shift Of the Capitol police force
was about to knock OF duty at dusk the
other evening an automobile rolled in
to the driveway, under the house
steps. and q middle-aged man and a
young conan got out and walked
briskly through the doorway. One Of
the officers on the door stopped them
and politely gave the information
that the time for receiving visitors
for the day was over.
For moment the man hesitated.
Then. from behind him there stepped
out hurriedly a much younger man,
who said something in a low voice to
the ofhcer. The latters manner
changed Immediately. He grabbed his
cap from his head, ard, bowling low,
said:
Come right in, Mr. President

over the new seats in the house. 3"
said President Wilson with a smile.
The officer led the way to the eIeva-
tor, and they were lifted up to the
next floor. They walked through the
corridor, and came to the members
lobby. There they discovered that the
doors leading to the house chamber
were locked

Connecting Link Between
MentaHties

The women themselves are as op-
posite mentally, as the atmosphere of
the room they live in. One studies.
The other does fancy work One
wishes with all her soul that she
was capable of doing great deeds.
The other is serenely satisfied to let
things go as they are.
And they are such good friends that
they take tea with each other, eve
nings, and have friendly powwows
that both honestly enjoy.
None of the other boarders in the
house could understand the friendli.
ness between two such apparently
uncongenial women until a third wo-
man ferreted out what she believed
to be the cause.
Working on the principle of that
early wise man. that all humanity is
bound in a common chain, with its
connecting link visible to any eye
sharp enough to find it, she looked
the two rooms over. And she found
them alike in one small detail. On
the wall above each bed hung a small
crucifix.
