Mr.. 8. f. Hale recently received a
drag Of ash timber from the swamp
region. These logs had to be towed
down the lakes to the lower Atchafa-
lHya before they could be headed up
the Teche for their destination, there
BY quadrupling the distancs they had
to be towed over what would be the
case II the Teche and Bontte were con.
nectsd by 9 canal. Where there il
one log now coming to this point un-

The Editors Daughter

i At about $3.50 yesterday cloud
were gathering in the neighbor
hood OF the manse, threatening
storm, says the Ruston Leader o
recent date.
Rev. DAMS at the time wal
busy showing the beauties of biz
garden to one of his elders an(
his good wife was busy preparin.
to freeze some cream, when tbe>
each heard what they mlstook fo
muiteriDgs of thunder in the dis
lance, and looked up in time tt
discover most Of the ladies OIL
I'll cir congregation fockiDg int
the yard.
For time it seemed a wise pre-
caution chat DR. Null had taken
to be on band.
What was planned for a sur
prise upon Mrs. DAMS proved to
be more of surprise upon the
parson, aud If some one had not
aroused him it is quite possible
thai be would still be standing 10
his garden with arms aklmbO.
No sooner had the crowd filed
all available space in the rooms
than two little cherubs, Master
Roy Barker and little Miss Mar.
gaLet kainwater came praDcing in
drawing a prettily decorated ex-
press wagon loaded to it's fullest
capacity with gifts of love, the
handiwork of the ladies' present.
Ii Mrs. DAMS was surprised
when the storm broke, she was
thunder struck when the shower
came.
Little Roy carried q mission
which he handed the hostess. 1t
contained tins message:
This is to signify, Mrs. Parson.
That though we be come by storm,
We only meant 1t for a shower,
And wish you no harm.
Iht SO little packages you have found
The best wishes bring:
Ihen, too. there's "A lot OF love;
That IN. re than anything.

was beautiful orocheted counter.
pane. each one of the twenty
squares having been made by a
member of Mr. Danis' coDgrega-
ton. The original design came
T. ON MAJ shall Fields of Chicago,
and was valued at one hundred
dollars-and, no doubt, the par
son ana his wife value theirs even
more highly.
This shower may have been the
most pleasing feature of the even
ing TO the host and hostess, but
to the guests it was pleasure to
be for an afternoon at the manse.
1t must be remembered that
this particular flock have long
been waiting for a ''preachers
wife"
A delicious two course luncheon
was served by the young ladies Of
the church and was Thoroughly en-.
joyed.
About forty five guests were
present, many having been detain
ed at home by the threatening
weather.
Ed. 1t will be remembered
that Mrs. Pierre DAMS was Miss
Leila Atkinson Willard of this
city.

MINING IN IDAHO
At PANAMA EXPOSITION
CORRESPONDENT FAvoRS MAX
ING MINING FEATURE OF
STATE EXHIBIT.
Wallace, Idaho, January 20.

To the Editor of The Miner:
In looking over an editorial in your
paper ] notice your estimate OF some
thing like twenty millions Of people
win come west of the Rocky noun
tains during the Panama exposition.
This vast hord Of humanity viii come
from all countries as well as all walks
and conditions of life in our own
country, AS Major Reed has truth
fully said mining Is the one great
business that first put Idaho on the
map, and since 1t Is still our greatest
single industry II would be no more
than justice to give 1t the most prom
inent place In our great exhibit,
Our advertising literature should be
well filed with appropriate photos,
with brief story of the subject pic
tured All literature should be print
ed in several languages. While we
want most to attract the attention of
the settler, the high class mechanic
as well az the capitalist of our own
country, it would also be well to at
tract the attention of the investors
among our foreign neighbors.
The proposed moving picture of our
varied industries and beautiful seen
cry of Idaho will no doubt be seen BY
thousands. but the short historical
stories made attractive with appropri-
ate pictures will be read, taken home
and pondered over by millions, Gel
not only the pictures Of wheat fields
and especially of the dry farming sec
, ton. orchards, vineyards, dairying
hog, cattle and horse raising, but give
pictures Of mining from the prospect
or's shack to the big mining plants o
our most modern equipped mines and
| their history, which will be a. grea
part Of the history Of Idaho.
! Scatter these to the four winds o
| heaven that they may be gathered b.
/ the multitude,
A CLOSE OBSERVER.
