The Hollow Lake.
The name of the cave is Mayohi,
giving the long sound of o as in bone.
1t is Biloxi Indian word, signifying
hollow lake." and was suggested
by Mrs. Byrd Trego when settlers
on the great plains asked her to look
up suitable name for the big cave.
If the settlers succeed in cementing
the cracks and converting it into a
reservoir, the lake will be hollow and
full by turns.
Located Between Buttes
The road to the cave leads due
north from Taber excepting for the
joys in the roads. 1t is about four
teen miles from Taber, and the road
to it passes between the two eastern
buttes. The cave is on the south
side of the old road leading from
Arco to Idaho Falls, and is 1.3 miles
west of where the road from Taber
connects with the east and west
road. The cave is couple of miles
from each butte, and nearly half
way between them, but a little to the
northward.
Their chance to Gain knowledge
At 2 o'clock the persons wishing
to go on top for view will drive to
the base of the east butte and 60
up, carrying field glasses. This trip
is designed to take until about 5
o'clock. 1t is especially desirable to
have press representatives and Gov
ernor Davis make the ascent, as they
will need to have good knowledge
of the great plains to be watered by
the Dubois project. It is likely that
thousands of home seekers will
come upon these lands in conse-
quence of what may be published by
the newspaper men, and the COVER
nor will be called upon many times
to judge of vital questions relating
to the tract.
We Want to Introduce You
: Not many of our local people have
any definite knowledge of these great
plains and their land marks or their
resources. It is for the purpose of
getting local people acquainted with
their own country, for having day
Of pleasure and for getting the mem
bers of the press of the intermount-
ain region acquainted with the re-
sources of the valley that this event
Is being arranged.
The Procession Starts at 8
The party starts from the Republi-
can office at o'clock when Governor
Davis steps into Mayor Thorsten-
oerg's car. The line of autos will

STE|NWAY DEATH
GREATLY M0URNED

The death Of Charles h. Steinway.
in New York, on Thursday, removes
from the music world of America one
of the biggest influences in the ad-
vancement of music in this country
President and senior member of the
Steinway Piano Company, Charles
Steinway is said to have received
more medals, degrees, and decorations
than any man in America.
EVERY crowned head of Europe
has honored itself by honoring him, 4"
writes Ebert Hubbard, in an appre-
citation on the SteTnways of four gen
erations. "Mr. Steinway modestly
apologies for the decorations, thus:
You see they can't vote university

porations nave no souls, so they hang
the medals around my neck. pin the
ribbons on my coat, and thrust the di-
plomas into my hands. I'm couven-

Steinway from the days OF its orig
inal founder Steinway who con-
ceived the great piano that has no
rivals, but who began with the home
made curious little instrument of
piano with two strings-Charles II.
Steinway went into the piano factory
as a boy to master the mechanical
side OF the great family art of piano
making. But il was due to his genius
for affairs that he came to his posi-
ton of head of the great enterprise.
ut was William Steinway, whom
Charles II. Steinway succeeded, who
sent a thousand dollars to that most
worthy man and wonderful artist,
Ignace Paderewski, who was at that
time broke in London. Paderewskrs
first recital was given at Carnegie
Hall. William Steinway. had guaran.
teed Paderewski $50, 900 for the Amer
lean tour. The amount secured was
S45, 900, all of which Steinway turned
over to the gifted Pole, with the re-
mark, TO have discovered you is pay
enough"
And through the years IL has been
the Steinways who have brought the
leading piano artists OF the world to
this country.
Lovable, simple in taste and man
ner, Mr.. Steinway was friend patron,
even rescuer OF much OF the musical
genius of his day. He directed the
policies OF the Steinway with a mas
ter hand, and he ranked as one of the
big financiers OF the country.
Ed and Carl Droop, whose firm of
r. +. Droop & Sons has represented
the Steinway Company for nearly
sixty years in Washington. went to
New York to attend the funeral of
Mr. Steinway. f. f. Droop, father of
the present partners of this company
was one OF the oldest representatives

try.
