Douulas Jerrold In School.

Douglas Jerrold wrote "Black Eyed
Susan" when he was twenty-one and
contributed to Punch the immensely
popular "Caudle Lectures" not long aft
@ ward. But at nine years of age young
J errold had been scarcely able to read,
and it was not until he was apprenticed
to a printer after serving for some time
as a midshipman at sea that he showed
either desire or capacity for intellectual
improvement.

THERE is a strong probable
ity that, if the legislature
takes favorable action on the
proposition to make large
appropriation for state high
ways, an election will be
called in Kootenai county to
vote road bond issue of two
or three hundred thousand
dollars. 1t is something for
interested taxpayers and PEG
pie who need roads, to think
about.

FOUR POSTER BEDSTEADS.

The Best Resolution.

The best resolution is this
| resolve to be master of my
self; will believe in myself;
| will believe that the world
needs me or | would not be.
| will then keep growing
and will create character,
which is greater than its
shadow, reputation. | will
then be building my ideals
high and climb to them.
AS it is never safe to be
satisfied with success on a
level we must climb the hills
and mountain; then each day
will express the best that is in
us, spiritually, mentally and
physically. This is the road
to attainment.
So if in the old year we
have been wrong, been torn
or bruised by the way, if we
resolve to believe in our
selves, we shall try again
and find that genius is only
energy intensified, and this is
thought expressed in action.
With this resolution firmly
fixed in our minds we shall
win happiness, concentration
and success. We must have
faith in ourselves; the faith of
others is too weak.
SO come, New Year; | fear
not your resolute step.
will keep step with you, and
you will be a ripe, rich year,
a mellow, genial year. Even
though you hold a crown OF
thorns, if nobly worn it will
become a crown of rejoicing,
for | believe in myself and
have conquered.

Second Idaho In For 1t.
Idaho Daily Statesman.l

The complete collapse OF the
federal national guard plan is made
more and more plain as different
guard regiments, which were not
sworn into the federal service
before going south, are brought
home from the border and muster
ed out.
Three Illinois regiments, total
ing about 5000 men, were recently
mustered out. When these trained
men were asked to re-inlist and to
take the federal oath under the
Hay law, which makes them liable
to service at any time within six
years, the majority declined.
In the First Illinois infantry, so
officers and 176 men were sworn in;
in the Second, 40 officers and 322
men, and in the Third. So officers
and 341 men. The rest declared
that in justice to the persons de-
pendent upon them they could not
risk further police border duty, but
would always stand ready to re-
enlist in case of war
The Idaho boys will soon be
home. but they are numbered
among the few regiments that were
given the federal oath before they
went to the border. 1t would be
interesting to know how many, if
they had the choice, would re- enlist
for six years. AS matters stand
now they are in for six years
whether they like it or not.

WORK ON TELEPHONES
PROGRESSING RAPIDLY

All telephone connections through
out the city which were damaged by
the storm of Wednesday will probably
be restored within the next few days
according to Manager j. T. Peele of
the telephone company. Numbers of
them have already been turned in,
and it is expected that the entire sys-
tenn will be in operation within a
short while.
Extra forces of workmen were
placed at work as soon as tie wind
subsidized, and as the extent of the
damage was confined almost entirely
to individual wires, very little cable
work was necessary. The fair weather
also helped with the work, and with
the exception of the Bayshore lines
the damage was much less than the
July storm.

MUCH APPREHENSION
FELT FOR MISSING TUG

Considerable apprehension is be-
ing felt by owners and charterers of
the American tug Magnolia, which
left Galveston for Pensacola las:
Sunday but which, up to a late hour
last night, had not been reported.
The Associated Press has made m
quiries concerning the tug, and has
asked its Pensacola representative TO
Immediately report the fact should
the Magnolia reach here.
There were eight men aboard, it
was stated, and it was believed that
the steamer should have been here
probably on Wednesday and certain
ly not later than Thursday afternoon.
AS the steamers arrival has not been
reported. the belief is held that some
accident has happened, and that the
Magnolia has either foundered, OF
else has broken down and may be
drifting aimlessly about the gull.
A great many vessels arriving al
gulf ports have brought no report OF
having sighted the Magnolia, and al
departing vessels are asked to loos
out for and make report of any in
formation concerning the missing
steamer.
