Acting President Van der Putte of the
Union Association has declined to call a
meeting of his circuit until after the
meeting of the Western Tri-State League
late this month. He says the Union can't
do anything toward framing up a circuit
until it is seen if the Tri-State will re-
lease Boise to the Union Association.
Boise is now said to favor rema ming in
its present company, at least unless the
Union drops some of the Montana towns
and frames an entirely new circuit

President Comiskey of the White Sox
last week announced the renewal Of
the contract Of William Buckner as
trainer of the White Sox team for
another year. This was a mere for
mality. for it is known that Buck has
made a place for himself in base ball
which is his as long as he wants it.

If I had seen MIN, and It was the
thought of him that en- oked her mer-
REST laughter
She shook her head and sighed, then
her manner changed abruptly.
You delivered my message to Mr..
Wiggins?"
''I did. He is badly out of sorts and
sees nothing clearly. He is very bitter
toward your aunt. He thinks she has
treated him outrageousIy-" -5oaza~5t
Aunt Octavia has done nothing of
the kind,'' she replied with spirit. Mr..
Virgins has no right to speak Of Aunt
Octavia save in terms of kindness. If
her wits are sharper than his, it is not
her fault, that 1 can see. But there are
matters here that 1 do not understand
Mr.. Ames. L trust you, as my aunt
evidently does, or 1 should not be talk
ing to you as I am, and I am moved to
ask a favor Of you, a favor of consid
cradle weight, in view of the fact that
you are a professional man, with
doubtless, many pressing calls upon
your time"
I bowed humbly before. this comph-
ment My time had been lightly ap-
praised by Miss Octavia and again by
Virgins. A long telegram from my
dSSlSldHG Jnat E0dCH0O uI6 W u110 uIO5S-
ed for dinner had urged my immediate
attendance upon my office. Some of
my best clients, now reopening their
houses for the winter, were in desper-
ate straits. But, Octavia HOLSTERS do
not occur in the life of every young
man, and both Cecilia and -Hezekiah
had taken strong hold upon my 1magi-
nation. Virgins place among the dra-
mats personae would in itself have
compelled my sympathetic attention,
and the nine silk hats that had seen
bobbing over the stile still danced be-
fore my eyes.
Miss HolIister," I said, my time is
yours to command. Ny Office is well
organized, and 1 am sure that my as
sistant is equal to any demands that
may be made upon him. Pray state in
what manner may serve you"

realize it was she until the meeting in
the orchard. It was in the Asolando
that I saw her; she was at the cash
aunt there"
You have given me information,
Mr.. Ames. 1 did not know that Heze-
k1ah had ever been connected with the
Asolando.''
"Oh, it was only that one historic
day. She says the place was unbear
able. She Jared the hottest chords of
the divine Tyre by harsh comments on
the pre-Rapha elite profile. One of the
1evotees was so shocked that she drop
ped a plate or something and. to put
it coarsely, Hezekiah got the bounce"
My description of Hezekiah's brief
tenure of office at the Asolando seem
ed to amuse Cecilia greatly
There is no one like my sister, she
said. There never was and there
never will be any one half so charm
ing. Hezekiah is an original. who
breaks all the rules and yet always
sends the bail over the net. And it is
because she is so inexpressibly dear
and precious that I am anxious that
nothing shall ever hurt her-nothing
mar the sweet. beautiful child spirit in
her.
1t was my turn to laugh now. Ce-
elias manifestation of maternal. solicit
tude for Bezekiah seemed absurd for
Hezekiah in her way was older. Heze-
kiah had raced with Diana and pluck
ed arrows from her girdle-She had
heard Homer at the roadside singing
of Achilles shield
''Hezekiah is reasonably safe, 1
should say. because she is so amazing
ly swift of foot and eye and so nimble
of speech. She is not to be caught in
a net or tripped with word"
81 suppose that is So" remarked Ce-
ella soberly. You thought her happy
when you met her today? She did not
strike you as being girl with a wound
in her heart? She wasn't particularly
sad?'

in no way whatever to her chimneys,

FARM INSTITUTE WELL THOUeNT or
BYFARNERs WHO ATTENDED

The Farmers Institute convened
at the Court house Tuesday
morning at 1000. The opening
address was made by Conductor
L. f. Masting, wsae sgvAs sfaIbw-
ed isy 3. E. Wyatt who spoke ON
Crop Rotation in manner very
interesting to his hearers. Ma.
Martiny then took up the subject
of Soil Conservation on which he
spoke until the noon recess. Tie
remarks Of both gentlmen were
interspersed by remarks and
questions VOLUNTEERED by the farm
ers present which proved that
they, at least took conside rable
interest IN the placing of an ms
titute in what otherwise seems to
be rather poor soil. Institute
Bulletins we're distributed just be-
fore dinner, At the afternoon ses
sion, Mr.. Wyatt spoke on the
subjects Of Good Cows and Silos
and Silage, while Mr.. Martiny re-
lated his experience in growing
Cloyers and Peas. There being
no local program prepared there
was no evening session. The Sec
ond opened with talk by Mr.,
Martiny on Horses, always an in
teresting subject, followed by a
lecture bv Mr.. Wyatt ON bovine
tuberculosis, this closed with a
very practical talk by Mr.. Mar
tiny on his speciality of Swine,
and their successful management.
The attendance in the afternoon
of the last day was by far the
largest Of all, and those present
listened to an instructive talk on
Fruits especially adapted to this
partof the state by G. L. Richard
son, Mr.. Plowman who gave a
brief, but very much to the point
address on the New Farm, and its
successful development. This
closed the Eagle River Institute,
while the attendance was not all
that it could or should have been
the wide awake interest manifest
cd by those who did attend, prov
ed that the idea of holding q
Farmers Institute in Villas county
was not altogether q bad one.
