COEUR D'ALENE LAKE
is FROZEN OVER
(St Maries Record.)

The extreme cold weather still con-
tinues and Sunday night is said to
have been the coolest we have yet ex-
perienced, twenty to twenty-three de-
grees below zero being reported.
Occur d'Alene lake is frozen over the
entire distance. the first time in a
number of years that the entire lake
has been frozen over, and the Red
Collar line is having a great deal of
difficulty in keeping its boats running
Captain Arnold is kept busy night and
day with the Flyer and the ice break
er, Copenhagen, keeping the channel
open. Even with all their efforts the
regular boats are having a hard time
to get through and it is feared that
if the extreme cold weather keeps up
it will be necessary to discontinue the
run.

water user desires to lay aside money
for his future payments, using Table
No. 2 if he is under section 2 of the
act. The balance of his payments will
each be IS per year. To meet the
next payment he must deposit three

he gets 4 per cent interest, which
equals $2.S83 for the ninth year; for
the tenth year three times $O.o24, or

Oh Woman!

Oh woman, in thine hours of ease,
uncertain. coy and hard to please,
why do you always make complaint
and yearn to be just what you amt?
Why is it, pray. if you are lean as is
the pole where twines the bean you'll
send away for this and that and
t'other thing to make you fat? And
why, if you are round and plump, do
you prefer to roll and jump, and Choir
tie with a gleeful sound if you take
off but half a pound. And why, if
nature you has blessed with hair as
black as ravens breast, will you for
the peroxide reach and souce your
tresses in the bleach? Pray tell me
why, if you were born with yellow
locks like ripened corn you'll never
rest until your head is frescoed black
or brown or red. Oh charming one
is it your lot to never like what you
have got, but strive with drug and dye
and paint to be the very thing you
amt?

HOW CONSTRUCTION PAY
MENTS MAY BE REDUCED
Reclamation Record.)

Water users on reclamation pro-
jects may be interested to know how
the terms of their payments compare
with private projects and what is their
real investment in water rights. In
order to answer this they must have
the data showing the additions caused
by the interest on investments.
Water users may pass through a
period of great financial stress. but
in most cases they finally work out of
it and find themselves in position
where they have small sum OF
money for investment. The question
naturally arises: Will this money be
better invested in the various securi-
ties on the market, some Of which
though highly recommended, may

basis of interest at S, 6. 7. and 8 per
cent. In the latter case $2l.58o would
be the present worth of the money
paid under this plan of payment.
Table No. 2 gives similar Informal
ton for payments under section of
the reclamation extension act, the first
payment being assumed as due one
year after the water right application,
compromising annually at the rates of
interest shown at the heads of the S
columns.
While many of the water users may
not be able to deposit at the begin
ming the sums which would be neces-
sary to meet their payments in this
way, yet there may be an opportunity
for some of the water users to set
aside in later years a sufficient sum to
earn the water right charges bv COM
pounding in savings bank. and these
tables will enable them to compute
exactly how much money would be
needed in any year to earn at COM
pound interest sufficient money for
making the payments required.

prove worthless, or can small avail
able sums be invested so as to yield
sufficient to pay out my own water
right?
In order that the water user may
be able to decide what is his real in
vestment in his water right. he must
be able to compare the returns from
the investment in other securities.
The value of his investment in his
water right is the amount of money
which is now placed in bank and
drawing interest at the prevailing rate
would yield sufficient to meet his
payments from year to year as they
become due. This may be called the
investment value of his water right
and is technically known as the pres
ent worth or present value of the wa
ter-right payments.
The accompanying tables give the
required information.

and including the twentieth year. The

IN READING 1T HAPPENED.

S. S. Wiser, of Reading, Pa, last
summer made himself a rustic table,
using the limbs of willow tree for
the legs. When he went out into his
yard the last warm spell he found that
the legs had sprouded, that buds were
beginning to show and that roots had
formed where the feet of the table
entered the ground. Mr. Wiser did
not dig up the table and carry the
pieces around to curious friends at
the cigar store, the druggists and the
newspaper Office. No sir, he is man
of sense. He is letting the table
grow. There hardly will be anything
much doing this fall, but in few
years why should he not go out into
his back yard and pick off a nice
ripe dining table from the tree? What
is to prevent him from plucking fine
billiard table to help while away the
long winter evenings? Even before
fall there probably will be few lit
tile kitchen tables or perhaps small
fancy table or two, just the thing to
fill odd corners in the parlor. There
is nothing like having table-tree
in ones back yard. But they cannot

Mr.. Wiser is strictly neutral.

SEATTLE BOY NOW HAS
EARL CONNER'S TITLE

The king is dead--long live the
king!
Earl Corners of Tacoma, one
of the cleverest lads in the Pa
cific coast boxing rings, had the
bantamweight crown rudely push
cd from his fevered brow last
night.
Joe Harrahan of Seattle, who
has boxed Earl four previous
times without making an impress
sion upon that crown, wears the
emblem of victory today.
Some Smash!
One powerful right uppercut to
Corners left eye, which tore open
the skin and puffed the optic until
it looked like an over-ripe egg
plant, gave Harrahan the title.
Earl was blinded by the flow Of
carmine. He was weakened also
by the Seattle boys wild rushes.
And when Harrahan persisted in
jabbing and hooking that sad
looking left eye. Earl gave up the
ghost.
The Tacoma champ didn't quit.
He fought on Just as gamely as a
fighting cock who knew he was
licked but hoped to land lucky
blow before the end came. Earl
simply lost his pep in the second
round, and he was easy meat for
Seattle's pride during the rest
of the bout.
Dandy Show.
Paul Steele's boxing program
last night in his gymnasium at
the Tourist hotel was a huge sue
cess. Several hundred fans,
paced into the small gym, were
more than satisfied by the band
of boxing served up to them. 1t
was the opening card of the sea-
son.
The only disappointment came
when Corners lost his title. But
Earl had no one to blame but
himself. He was decidedly not
an to his usual condition. Harra-
han has constantly improved
every time that he has boxed Con-
SDrs, but he was vastly better last
Kght than we have ever seen him.
The first round of the title
bout was even. The boys mixed
willingly, but did not exchange
any severe blows. In the Sec
ond round the Seattle scrapper
opened Earl's left eye, and began
rushing the champion.
In Poor Shape.
Harrahan pounded unmerciful-
ly at Corners eye, which swelled
and bled profusely. Earl was on
the defensive during almost the
entire second and third rounds.
In the fourth round the Taco
man made a game attempt to
come back. But old man Lacka
Training was helping to defeat
him. Earl's blows were harm
less. He landed frequently and
kept Harrahan lodging about the
ring, but 1t was merely a dancing
exhibition for Joe, while he wait
ed for the gong. Earl had been
whipped, and Harrahan wasn't
anxious to do him any more in
jury.
Referee Frank Farmer could
not have been fair, and given any
other decision than a verdict for
Harrahan.
