GROWING OLD

A little more tired at close of day
A little less anxious to have our way;
A little less ready to scold and blame
A little more care of brothers
name;
And so we are nearing the journeys
end,
where time and eternity meet and
blend.
"A little more love for the friends Of
youth,
A little less zeal for established truth
A little more charity in our views,
A little less thirst for the daily news
And so we are folding our tents
away,
And passing in silence at close of day.
A little less care for bonds and gold,
A little more zest in the days of old;
A broader view and saner mind,
A little more love for all mankind;
And so we are faring adown the way,
That leads to the gates of better
day
A little more leisure to sit and dream,
A little more real the things unseen;
A little nearer to those ahead,
With visions of those long loved and
dead;
And so we are going where all must
go,
To the place the living may never
know.
A little more laughter, few more
tears,
And we shall hove told our increasing
years;
The book is closed and the prayers
are said,
And we are part of the countless dead.
Thrice happy if then, some can say,
Il live because the Grand Army pas

In the farming game rain is trumps
and there are occasional freeze-outs
Spades are a good opener. Jacks and
aces are not much used, nor dc
clubs flourish. But the pots are
large and altho the stakes are some
times low and the suits poor, the
hearts are there just the same.
Villa is now as plentiful as he was
scarce. Growing tired of the disap-
pearing act, he has begun to show
up here and there under assumed
names.
Our army is like an only child;
when Uncle Sammy wants it to show
off it shows him up.

NEWS OF INTEREST
FROM OVER THE STATE

With the aid of Utah capital COM
pany has, been formed at Mackay.
Under the name of the Miners and
Ranchers bank, to open a banking
business with a capital stock of $50,
900. The stock is to be divided be-
tween Lost River and Salt Lake and
Ogden interests. The Mackay Miner
reports that already $4,000 of the
stock has been subscribed for by To-
cal capitalists and business men.
Judge Clay Vance, Of Mackay, pro-
prietor of the Elkhorn Stock ranch,
has sold out to Murray Longhurst.
1880 acres were turned over in this
deal, and that is probably one of the
largest real estate transfers ever
made in the state. Judge Vance has
owned this ranch for 81 years, and
now cedes to one of the younger men,
who, if he is rightly judged by his
lneighbors, will continue the work of
making the big tract produce increas-
ing revenues.

Rogerson, IS miles south of Twin
Falls. was the scene last Saturday of
a regular old time gun fight between
two men who had been trying to get
together for a fight for some time.
A fist encounter had been prevented
by bystahders. G.. H. McCullom and
George Washington went armed;
they met at store and had hot
words; they stepped outside and
opened fire; McCullon was finally hit
in the hip; thus ended the scrape.
A team and load of household
goods stood in the streets of Twin
Falls for three days. Nobody claimed
the outfit and nobody fed or watered
the horses. This mysterious wagon
and team seemed to have dropped
out of the sky, for there was no trace
of an owner. On the third day the
policeman took the horses to the
pound. The outfit had been left for
a man who misunderstood the place.
Colonel H. c. Olney, prominent
citizen of Standpoint, died In Boise, on
Monday, May Is. He was stricken
in the act of making speech at the
annual convention of Royal Arch Mas
ons, after he had been presented with
a gold watch charm by the members.
He served in the federal army in the
civil war, and came west in 1899.
George Andrus, fourteen year old
son of M. Andrus, of Ora, Idaho was
killed while blowing in the fields
of his fathers farm. He was found
lying with his neck beneath the wheel
of the pillow, and the horses were
standing still waiting the orders that
never came. But it is thought that
he had stood up to urge the horses
or fix the harness, and lost his bal
ance, and that the fall broke his
neck.
Two men were fighting on ranch
near Arimo, when woman came to
separate them, holding small colts
revolver in her hand. The weapon
was fired in the mixup and Welton

P ocatello and gave herself up.
