In the American Magazine a writer
says.
My acquaintance was large. and
was not only embarrassed, but annoyed
and hurt, by my failure to remember
much more prominent men.
"One day In hotel lobby a member
of congress from my state, who had
been In congress for ten years. spoke
to me heartily, and as shook hands
with him / committed the unpardon-
able error Of asking him who he was.
He happened to be a man of good
sound common sense. as well as a good
politician, and here is what he said TO
me, after he led me away TO seclud.

by their first names. Ordinarily, when
you are introduced TO a man or when
you see him at distance, you hear his

Introduction of the semielliptical

with complaint on behalf of the Tweed

said, You did not know when you
were on it and when You were off it"
The first iron arch constructed was
made in England at Coalbrookdale by
one Darby. The bridge consists of one
semieircular arch, 100 foot span. each of
the ribs being cast in two pieces only.
1t was opened for traffic in 1779, and
a new era in the art of bridge building
was thus entered upon. Up to 1860
cast iron was predominant in bridge
construction. and although it is be-
lieved that wrought iron was introduc-
ed before 1900 it does not appear to
have been extensively used before 1860.

with the Southeastern Idaho Fair AS

he Blackfoot Fair on the Inter Noun

the members of the local fair associa-

agreed to join the new racing circuit,
N which the following cities now hold
membership: Boise, Montpelier,
Blackfoot, and Rexburg, Idaho; Salt
Lake City, Utah, and LeGrande, Baker
City and Ontario, Oregon. Now that
Blackfoot is on this new racing circuit,
the patrons of the fair can rely on
witnessing some good races, as the best
horses on the coast will be induced to
come here for the purses offered, but
could not do SO in the past for the lack
of circuit.

ON his present friends in behalf of
the Southeastern Fair Association. He
stated that if Blackfoot was to have a
fair this year the directors would de-
mand some guarantee of support sutti-
eient at least to guard them against the
annual loss they have experienced in
the past. And in order to have a fair
this year, Mr.. Pearson said, it was pro-
posed to sell season tickets to everv
citizen Of the county who was willing
to buy one, and thorough canvass of
the county will be made for this kind
OF support, which seems very popular,
and will undoubtedly meet with the
hearty approval of majority of our
merchants, farmers and citizens, if the
price of the tickets is reasonable.
