and white lilacs-facing the spa

wedding luncheon was served in
seven courses, and in the dining
room as well as the other rooms of
the Monastery the color tone was
pink this being the favorite color
of the bride.
The brides wedding gown was a
dainty creation of gray silk and
chiffon. She wore a beautiful cor
sage bouquet of lilies of the valley
and pink sweet peas, the white and
pink flowers contrasting most
charmingly against the silky gray
of her gown. The brides travel
ing suit was beautiful black and
white importation.

STATE HIGHWAY
FOR BOUNDARY
State Highway Commission 10 Be Asked
to Take Oyer Rosd From
Montana State Line
SECRETARY OF STATE FAVORS IT
Would Mean Increased Travel Through
This District

>J(1A&koiJ Va 0hoNS oSOA ~ N
Barker, who is ex-officio member
of the State Highway Commission,
and E. M. Booth, engineer for the
State Highway Commission accom-
panied by County Commissioners
McColl and Hagman, were in town
yesterday and met in a conference
with some rs local business men in
regard to the securing of state
highway from the Montana line
through to Standpoint to join the
state highway from Cabinet
through to Standpoint and connect
ing with the Washington State APP
pie Way highway at the Washing
ton state line.
1t is proposed to have the pres
ent road from Boomers Ferry to the
Montana state line by way of
Moyie Springs taken over by the
state for its official highway but
before this can be done certain
amount of work must be done
which County Engineer Chains
has figured would not cost over a
few thousand dollars.
Mr.. Barker told local people yes
terday that he was heartily in ia
vor of giving Boundary county a
state highway and that while he
was not in a position to promise
anything definite he would return
to Boise and recommend to the
other two State Highway Commits
sioners. w. A. Broadhead, of
Haley, and E. A. Van Sicklen, OF
Weiser, that such action be taken
1t is a rule of the State Highway
Commission that all counties hav-
ing state highways in their con-
fines must expend on a ratio OF
two to one of what the state appro-
PIRATES. After the state highway
is completed and accepted the state
takes care of all maintenance
charges. Mr.. Barker believed that
after completing the state highway
from Cabinet to Standpoint the
commission would have enough
money left with which to aid in
putting the road from Boomers
Ferry to the Montana state liue in
shape so that it would conform to
state highway standards.
He thought it might be hard to
convince his fellow commissioners
of the need of second state high
way in northern Idaho but said he
expected to show that the proposed
new highway would open up ar
entirely new territory, provide the
most direct and scenic roste from
the Glacier National Park and
would also best serve all Canadian
travel which will soon be able tc
enter the United States at Kings
gate, B. c., travelling direct to
Boomers Ferry over a new road
now being built at an expense oil
some 81, 300 which is to be paic
for by the u. S. Forestry Depart
ment and Bonner county.
1t is Sic prediction that if i
is within Mr.. Bankers power to Sc
cure Boundary county will have a
state highway in the near future
The proposed new highway woulc
result in great benefits to rancher'
all along its route and would serve
to bring thousands of automobile
through this district which other
wise would take the Missoula route
from the Glacier National Park tc
Spokane and coast points.

WATER PROBLEM
AGAIN COMES UP
Oily Argues Need for Better Water
Before Public Utilities Commission
at Tuesdays Meeting
FEATHERSTONE PROMISES RELIEF
Says He Will Move Pumping Plant
Above City to Improve Supply

The matter of securing a purer
water supply for Boomers Ferry
was brought before the State Pub
lie Utilities Commission while in
session here Tuesday. DIR. E. E.
Fry, ex-mayor and the local health
officer, was the only witness called
by the city. He submitted analy-
ses of the water and statements by
the State Board of Health to show
that the present water was not Fit
for use, and also placed before the
commission the city's objection to
the present location of the pump
ing plant.
A. H. Featherstone, of Wallace,
owner of the local water and light
system, was present and stated
that he was willing to do anything
within reason to improve the water
and had been working on the mat
ter. He stated that if the city
would be satisfied with water OBJ
tanned from the river or from a
we'll above the mill island, he
would move the pumping plant to
that location.
The matter was finally settled
by the commission suggesting that
DR.. Fry and Mr.. Featherstone Sc
cure analyses of the water from the
river and from wells above town,
and if such water is sufficiently
pure, for Mr.. Featherstone to at
once remove the plant to that loca-
ton, the commission requesting
that they be kept posted in regard
to the progress of the work. In
this case Bottum & Wilson ap-
peared as attorneys for the city.
Mr.. Featherstone also agreed to
re-arrange the water rates so as to
remove excessive charges in some
particulars. He likewise promised
to extend the water service to the
Northside if permission could be
secured to lay a pipe across the
county bridge.
James Fitzpatrick also appeared

telephone trouble. Mr.. Fitzpat-
rick, several years ago, built
phone line from his ranch to town
and later connected with the city
exchange of the Interstate Utilities
Company. Recently trouble had
arisen over the charge the company
was making for the switching ser
vice, requiring Mr.. Fitzpatrick to
pay $50 year in advance. At the
same time service is granted to
other farmers lines az the rate of
SIS a year for from one to FIVE sub
scribers and s. per year for all
over FIVE, an instance being cited
of one line of 10 subscribers receiv-
ing service for the same rate as the
company asks Mr.. Fitzpatrick to
pay.
The commission stated that this
was evidently case of discrimina
ton and that they would take the
matter under adviscment.

AUSTRALIA WANTS
BELG|ANS To MAKE
HOMES WITH THEM
(By Associated Press.)

SYDNEY, Australia, April 13.-
Hope that expatriated and distressed
Belgians may yet be induced to set
tie in Australia, Notwithstanding the
adverse attitude of the Belgian gov
eminent was voiced in a statement
made recently at a meeting here Of
the Millions club by Percy Hunter, di-
rector of the New South Wales immi-
grafton bureau. Mr.. Hunter, whose
headquarters are in London, said that
the proposed transplanting of Belgians
who in consequence of the war would
be unable to earn their living. The
New South Wales government offered
to take 1000 of them, transport them
free of passage to this state, main
tain them here and return them pas
sage free to their homes il Belgium
after the war, if they desired; and It
also offered to bring here a consider
able number of young Belgian women
and widows with children who might
find situations as domestic servants.
Though these schemes had failed be-
cause the Belgian government had de-
terminedly refused to sanction them,
he believed that some arrangement to
the end desired might eventually be
made.

morrow, and at 8 o'clock tomorrow af-
ternoon will report at the local ball
yard for their first practice, and for
the next two weeks will make fight
for a berth on the local club of the
Georgia State league. These men as
stated, while most of them are stran-
gers, still every one has been recon-
mended to Manager Wade Reynolds,
and he believes that from the number
he will be able to gather club which
will give Brunswick first-class repre-
sentation in the league this summer.
Here are the players who will report:
Manager Reynolds and George Jor--
dan, both already in the city, will
have no opposition for their positions
behind the bat. A likely list of in
fielders have been signed. The latest
is H. E. Bates, who was yesterday pur-
chased from Durham, in the N. G..
league. Bates comes highly recon
mended as a fast man, a good hitter
and all-round fast player, and was
sold by Durham only because that city
succeeded in securing a high league
man for the position. The other in
felders are Charlie Weller last yea"
with the Hendersonville club of the
Kitty league, who has been in the city
for several days and who is showing
up good j. Norris of Savannah, q
highlg-recommended infielder. john
sin, Philippe and O'Neal, who have
been turned over to Brunswick by
President Walsh of the Charleston
club, and who recommends them, are
unusually promising infelders. Thus
it will be seen there are seven candl-
dates for the three infeld positions,
second, third and short. One of the
men, however, may be used at first. On
this number Manager Reynolds is sure
that he will be able to secure a fast
infield.
AS outfielders the following have
been signed G. Cooper of Lexing-
ton, Ga, a heavy-hitting amateur
Robert Graham of Talbotton, who
comes recommended as a fast outfield-
er, good hitter and accurate thrower;
Joseph O'Brien of New York, who has

in solor or to accompany voices or the
violin. Their programs are as good
as ordinarily heard in the best thea
tres, but they are graded according to
the part of the city. In Soho, Lon
don's Latin quarter, the music is of
the gayer sort in the ordinary middle
class neighborhoods the selections run
to the popular and sentimental, but in
the cultivated West End to the clas-
steal. Many of the singers come from
the opera and concert stage. Some
