cat home after February the
tenth, Nezperce, Idaho"
Symptoms of this happy event
have been prevalent for some
time, it seems, but its occurance
came as surprise, as no definite
word of its immediate prospect
had been given out here.
The bride and groom are spend
ing their honeymoon at Salt Lake
City and other points Of interest,
and are expected to arrive here
early next month, when they will
take up their residence on the
groom s ranch, the homestead Of
his parents, southeast of this city.
The lady in the case is a grad
uate from the Idaho University
and held the position of home
economics teacher in the Nezperce
High School through the terms of
1867 and 1917-18, after which
she took a government appoint
ment in the food conservation
service in South idaho. She is
one of the state's fairest daugh-
ters, cultured and refined, and
these attributes, together with
her pleasing manners, won for her
many friends in this community,
which will be glad to welcome her
return.
The man is son Of this COM
in whom it is well pleas
ed. He was reared on the farm
Of his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Clay
ton Jones, southeast Of town; Sc
cured his education at the local
schools and at Whitman College,
Walla Walla. He made an envi-
able record in the war, being In
The overseas service. Both are to
be congratulated.

nouncement Of the population
practically Of all cities of the
country by May or June and the
total population Of the entire

was taken April Is, and announc-
ed June "a. Rhode Island s pop

first of the states on July 21.
New York City's population was
announced September 2, Boston s
September IA, and Chicago s
September 18.
The. center of population,
Bloomington, Indiana, was an
nounced July II, and the coun-
try's total population was made
public December 10.
"The enumeration is in pro-.
gress throughout the entire coun-
try" said Mr.. Rogers today. cad
vices from the supervisors indi-
cate that during the first week of
the work at least 10000 enumera-
tors were started.
eve are now organizing a.
force of clerks who will be equip
ped TO examine the schedules as
rapidly as they are received from
the supervisors. These clerks will
make a preliminary count Of the
population This preliminary
count will be made public as rep
idly as the totals for the cities
and the minor civil divisions are
obtained. The population of the
cities will be announced first. Wei
hope that the total population Of
the country will be known in|

Open 10000 Acres In Wyoming.

Washington, Jan. 25.-Approx-
imately 10000 acres Of reclaimed
land in Wyoming and Nebraska
will be opened to homestead entry
early in March, the reclamation
service announced today. Appli-
cations for entry upon irrigated
farms composing a tract of about
five thousand acres in the North
Platte valley project embracing a
large section of the border areas
of each state, will be accepted
from February % to March S it
was said, while applications for
entry upon another five thousand
acre tract on the Shoshone, Wyo.
project, will be accepted during
The week following. Drawings
will be made to determine the
right of entry in each case where
two or more applications are
made for the same farm.
The North Platte valley tract,
part of a project in which hun
dreds of thousands Of acres al
ready have been reclaimed, by
storeing waters of the North
Platte river behind the great
Pathfinder dam. will be opened
on water service rental basis
for the first three years. When
the irr.gating system has been en-

NEZPERCE HAS RETURN
OF THE INFLUENZA.
Two Families In Town and Sever
al In Country Stricken No
Fatalities. Observe Quar-
antine; Schools Close.

| Until the first of the week this
town had escaped the recurrence
of influenza, while it had been
making serious inroads in several
neighboring communities, Kam-
iah in particular reporting a large
number of eases. Then reports
coming from the surrounding
farming section indicated that the
malady had gained a foothold in
at least four families. With this
information at hand, and 1918's
sad experience still fresh in the
memory of the community, it was
decided to take steps to forestall
as far as possible the spread of
the disease here. County Attor-
|ney Pennell held a conference with
County Health Officer DR.. Il. Tay-
lor, Of Kamiah, the result OF
which was visit to our city yes
terday by the latter. After in
vestigating the situation Dr. Tay-
lor ordered the closing Of the
public schols and all public gath
ering places, and the cantelling
of all contemplated public gather
ings. This ruling has been
strictly followed.
As The Herald goes to press
late this evening, l6 defined cas-
es OF influenza are reported in
town, these being in the families
of L. j. Rowe, Roy Lyons, Mrs.
Covey, B. f. Oakley, Frank
Thompson and A. E. Wade. None
Of these are said to be serious and
some are well on the way to re-
covery. N
In he adjacent country cases
are reported at the homes Of John
Gehrke, Clarence Eastman, Ed.
Reed, Percy Marker, and Abel
Newton. These are in various
stages of the disease, but none
seem to be extreme.
Frank Shaw, who was stricken
with pneumonia five days ago,
died at 5 20 this evening. He has
been employed in the b. j, Fike
garage here for some time. but
his family is on Homestead in
Montana, and funeral plans
await the arrival of his oldest
son, who is enroute. Little is
known of him here. His was not
an influenza case.

"Yes, we see your feathers" an
swered the birds, "but we also see
your feet and you have four. We do
not play with four-footed animals"
Puss had not thought about his
feet. He thought all he needed was
feathers. He was pretty hungry now,
so he ran back home thinking he could
get Tabby Grey to share her milk with
him, but when she saw him she hump
ed her back and looked very fierce.
Puss tried to tell her who he was,
but It was no use. She would not lis
ten and there was nothing to do but
go back to the woods.
Just as he was running along the
path hunter, seeing the queer ami
NAL, raised his gun and fired, but
Puss was lucky and ran behind n rock
unframed.
There he stayed thinking over his
sad plight. He was covered with
feathers and still he was not bird,
and even his own kind would not have
him around.
III ever get rid Of this coat I will
be satisfied with what Nature gave
me-" thought Puss, "and l will hunt
mice and drink my saucer of milk and
be thankful"
II was a long time before Puss was
rid Of his feather coat and he looked
anything but handsome for long
time, but when he did at last get back
his soft white coat he was a wiser
puss, you may be sure.

Dual Personality Results From Auto

Fear Of Capture Haunted

Chicago.-On Halloween In 1918 a
recklessly driven automobile crashed
into a telephone pole on highway
near Falls Creek, Pa, hurting three
Joy riders to the pavement One or the
trio was Joseph A. McGrath, "A years
old, law student.
Shortly after the accident, McGrath
told federal officials recently, he deyel-
oped dual personality. There were
days when he was normal, In posses
sion of all his faculties. There were
days Of splitting headaches, when
time seemed to pass In haze. He
worked to save when he was normal.
At other times he was spendthrift
A Good Job-and Trouble.
When the war began he tried to en-
list, but the examining physician re-
fused to pass him. "Psycho-some-
thing" the doctor said.
The home folks pitied McGrath.
Somebody thought of the postoflice.
He was made postmaster. For time
he prospered. He had only his moth
er to support; she was the only girl he
wished, he said. Then he began to
have trouble. On the days when his
mind seemed in haze his accounts
were usually short.
In September, 1918, an inspector
found something was wrong with the
books. He told McGrath he would call
again. When he arrived McGrath was
gone. So was $1,000.
A few days ago McGrath, emaciated,
beard month old, eyes sunken
and furtive, stopped al" the elevator
man at the federal building and asked
for a deputy marshal. He was sent
away. Three times he returned be-
fore he was permitted to go to the
eighth floor, where he surrendered to
Deputy Marshal Tom Smith.
"rhe federal people In Falls Creek
want me-" he explained. II was post
master there two years ago. l was

The deputy marshal took him to the
back room, bought dinner.
II never have seen my mother since
