HIS FIRST LONG TROUSERS
Youngsters Desire to Emerge From
Status Of "SmaII Boy" Almost Led
to Tragedy.

In a certain uptown neighborhood.
which shall. for obvious reasons, be
nameless. a small tragi-comedy was
enacted during the past week. This
small drama seems to have its points
OF absolute originality. SO far as re-
corded history permits us to Judge.
But here Is the case:
In the uptown neighborhood in ques-
ton two small boys reside. They are
not so small, either, these boys. The
fact is. the whole issue Of the tragi-
comedy hangs on the size of the boys.
One party to the struggle regards
them as being small. The second party
regards them as being relatively large.
Each party consists of two persons.
so that the drama end is not yet In

In a house belonging to one OF the
parties Of the first part a mother
walked into q room and discovered her
young son in a subtly suspicious atti-
tude- He was idle. sitting, with a
newspaper spread out over his knees.

ed the American changed suddenly TO
look of pompous pride. He jerked
an imperious head at his ragged re-
with a flourish.
While he waited for the horse to ap-
pear he turned upon his shopping men
and drove them to their mounts with
curses. Evidently 1t was no sinecure
to command in the army of the liber-
alton, and the yelled mutterings OF
his followers showed that they were
little better than tigers in leash.
Mounted upon horses. mules. and
even burros; armed with every con-
ceivable weapon from a musket to
standard repeating rifles, they were a
tatterdemalion army, more fit for
treason. stratagems and spells" than
the sterner duties OF war.
Bud looked them over closely, well
satisfied to have his back against a
wall, and when the low-browed re-
tainer came hurrying back with the
horse he quickly took the worthless
receipt and watched them on their
way. Then, as the last camp-follower
disappeared. he ran for his saddle and
rifle and within a minute he was
mounted and away.
There were rebels below him-very
likely there we're more to come-the
only safe place for Copper Bottom
was over the hills at Fortuna. With
out stopping for path or trail. he head
ed straight northwest over the ridges,
riding as the cowboys do when they
rake the range for cattle. Hardly had
he topped the first high crest when
he came In sight of Amigo, loaded
down with his cartridge-belts and car
rying his heavy Mauser.
In long, stumbling trot the Yaqui
was drifting along the hillside with
the free grace of a wild creature, and
when Hooker pulled down his horse
to keep pace with him he laughed and
motioned him on. Taking the lead, he
loped on over hogback and barranca,
picking out the best trail by instinct
and setting such pace that Bud was
hard pressed to keep up with him.
He had heard II said that in the
Yaqui country no white man, no mat
ter how well he was mounted, could
outdistance the Indians on foot, and
now he knew II was true. But why
this killing haste. on the part OF Ami
go? He had neither friends nor kin
in town; why, then, should he run SO
fast to warn them of the. enemy?
They racked on, up one hill and
down another, while the insurrectos
followed the canyon that swung to the
south. and finally. in last scramble.
they mounted a rocky ridge and
looked down upon old Fortuna.
Already the hard-driven poems were
out in the fields at work and smoke
was rising from the mescal still. Ara
gon was busy, but his labors would be
worse than wasted If the red-haggers
took him prisoner. AS Bud breathed

back and warn him or press on and
notify Fortuna; but even for that

holding out his black hand; Il go this

But why?" said Bud. still at loss
to account for his haste. Then. seeing
the reticence in the Indians eyes, he
thrust out his hand In return.
"Adios. Amigo mio!" he replied. and
with quick grip the Yaqui was gone.
With that same deceptive speed he

higher ground. Bud knew he had
some purpose-he even had a sneak

at Captain del Rey-but six months In
Mexico had made him careless, and he
half hoped the Yaqui would win.
The captain had II coming to him
for his brutality, but with Aragon 1t
was different-Aragon had a wife and
daughter-and. with the memory OF
Gracia in his mind. Bud sent his horse
plunging down the ridge to warn them
before 1t was too late.
There were some brush fences to be
jumped. but Copper Bottom took them
flying. and as they cut into the river
trail he made the mud-puddles splash.

BARBER COMPANY WINS

In decision made public this week
the Supreme Court of the State of
Idaho has declared to be legal the
sale by the State Land Board to the
Barber Lumber Company. The de-
cision was not unanimous, two judges
upholding the action of the board in
awarding the lumber to the lowest
bidder, and Judge Bryan, who was
called in to. take the place of Judge
Ailshie, who did not care to sit in
the case, dissenting.
The court holds that the State Land
Board did not abuse it's discretion in
rejecting the bid of Edwin Snow and
accepting that of the Barber Lum-
Der Company. The Snow bid was a
thousand dollars higher than that OF
the successful bidder. The result OF
the decision is that the Barber people
will resume operations at their big
lumber plant at Barber Dam, above
Boise, as soon as arrangements can
be made, and that standard guage
railroad will be built into the tim
Der section acquired by the purchase
in the Boise Basin country.
Judge Bryan writes an opinion dis.
senting in every particular with the
opinion of the other members of the
Supreme Bench: He holds that the
State Land Board should have &C.
cepted the Snow bid, as being the
highest, having no choice in the mat.
ter under the law.
