But that such a thing as a pearl car

be tax on credulity, did it not actually

find even in India.
Such treasure, being in itself indie

dynasties of the Hindu kings, and
later Of the Mogul emperOrs, when

the Hindus and their ancient temples.
So it was fitting that some should have
found their way back. History re-

EVANGELIST LEWIS
MAKES APOLOGIES

A dispatch from Twin Falls states
that Prosecuting Attorney Stephens
and Probate Judge Duvall had gone
to Buhl, in Twin Falls county, to in
vestigate charges that an evangelist
by the name of Lewis had been max
ing serious charges against the busi-
ness men of Buhl. The officers made
an investigation but the evangelist
apologized and retracted some of the
statements made and was permitted
to continue his meetings. The identity
of Evangelist Lewis has not been es-
tablished as no initials were given,
but it is understood he is not the
Robert, or "Bob" Lewis who was here
with Dr. Bulgin last winter, as Bull
gin, and Lewis are said to be holding
meetings in western Washington.
Lewis is said to be a sensational
preacher and made serious charges
against the business men Of Buhl who
demanded his arrest and prosecution.
Retraction and apologies by the evan
gelist saved him from this.

TAKE LITTLE INTEREST IN
BONNER COUNTY POLITICS

STANDPOINT, Idaho.-So little in
terest in the coming primaries in
Bonner county has been exhibited and
it has been so difficult to get commit
teemen to serve that it is going to be
a hard matter to fill out the tickets
in the various precincts and get them
ready for printing.
The republicans have been fairly
successful in naming committeeman
and having them act, but the demo-
Gratis have had poor luck in that re-
spect. Filings have been made by
both parties for all the county offices
however, and more, too, except that
the democrats have no candidate for
coroner. It is reported that list of
committeeman has been sent in to the
auditors office at the last moment,
which is complete, except for two or
three precincts.
None of the candidates of either
party is making any strenuous can
vass.

BRIDE OF T. v. ELLIS
COLLEGE ROMANCE ENDS IN
WEDDING AT MOSCOW SAT-
URDAY AFTERNOON

A pretty "home" wedding, closing
a romance which began in college al
Pullman several years ago, was
solemnized at the home of the brides
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. G. N. Lam
phere, on Third street at 2:3O this
afternoon when Gladys Marjery
Lamphere became the bride of
Ernest w. Ellis, of Colfax. The
ceremony was performed by the Rev.
w. H. Bridge. rector of St. Mark
Episcopal church. Only the relatives
of the bride and bridegroom were
present.
Following the ceremony welding
luncheon was served and the happy
young couple left on the afternoon
Inland train for the coast where a
brief honeymoon will be spent, after
which they will be "at home" at Col

The bride is the oldest daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs George N Lamphere,
of Moscow. She was born in Palouse
and educated in the Palouse schools
and Washington State College, at
Pullman, having graduated in pharm-
acy at that school. 1t was there she
met the man whose bride she became
today. They went through college
and graduated in the same class, both
being graduate pharmacists. Since
leaving college both have been en-
ployed at Colfax.

STORMY WEATHER
STOPS YACHT RACE
STRONG BREEZE AND HEAVY SEAS
CAUSE OF POSTPONEMENT
UNTIL MONDAY

SANDY HOOK.-(By A. P)-The
fifth international cup race determin-
ing the Americas cup contest, was
declared off today by the Regatta COM
mittee on account of heavy weather
The next race was set for Monday.
The postponement was announced
when the sloops were three miles
northwest of Ambrose channel light
ship, heading in the direction of Sandy
Hook.
With Is to 18-knot breeze blowing
it is inferred the shippers did not
care to take chance of being dis
masted or wrecked in the heavy seas
and squally blows.
Today's race was to have been over
a course that is believed would nave

strongly at odds for the American boat

high.

Bumper Hay Crop.

Farmers who have completed put
ting up their alfalfa and timothy hay
in this section report the yield ex-
ceptionally heavy. Some have already
cut their grain hay which they also
report is yielding splendidly to the
acre. One gentleman told us that of
of patch from which he only harvest
ed four light loads last year, this year
he harvested 13 large ones. Reports
from the river section state that the
hay crop on the river is the largest
it has been in many years.-Cotton-

HARVEST HANDS
SCARCE--WAGESH HIGH
KENDRICK VOTERS SLOW TO
REGISTER-HAD GOOD BAR
LEY-CORN CROP GOOD

Harvest hands have been scarce in
the Potlatch so far this season.
Many farmers are experiencing
difficulty in securing men to shock
their grain. in spite of the fact that
they are paying higher wages than
ever before. 1t seems to be a case
of too much prosperity. Boys who
are willing to work have had no
trouble in getting plenty of work
hoeing beans. Several boys went
out last week to hoe beans. One of
them, however, who has an intense
apathy toward anything that re-
quires physical exertion, soon
managed to get his walking papers
and returned home The rest of
them are still sticking.
Less than a hundred have regist-
cred in Kendrick precinct for the
place Tuesday. August 8. Only two
more Saturdays until the primary.
To vote in the primary it is abso-
lutely necessary to register. Mrs.
w. M. McCrea is registrar for
Kendrick precinct and she has the
books at the Farmers Hardware.
Elmer Mathes brought in a sheaf
of bald barley which he raised on a
bench of Bear ridge. The sheaf was
nearly six feet high. The grain was
sowed the 18th of February and will
be cut for hay. Ordinarily barley
does not go very much to straw in
this country, but this case was an ex-
ceptional one. 1t will make a very
heavy yield of hay. The grain will
be put in the Farmers Bank exhibit.
j. w. Roush returned the first of
the week from the Joe Davis farm
on the lower end of Potlatch ridge,
where he has been doing some re-
pair work on the farm buildings.
He says that Mr.. Davis has twenty
acres of the finest corn that he has
seen in the Potlatch country.
The fishing party, consisting of
Stuart Compton, Marvin Long,
Percy Ware and Frank Meyer, re-
turned home Tuesday night. They
report splendid fishing in the Little
North Fork and plenty of feed for
the horses. They went by way Of
Elk River and packed from there in.
They had all the trout they wanted
but couldn't bring many back on ac-
countof the hot weather.

THIS IS PIONEER DAY
FOR ALL M0RM0NS
SEVENTY-THREE YEARS AGO
TO-DAY BRIGHAM YOUNG'S
PARTY STRUCK UTAH

SALT LAKE CITY To-day is
pioneer Day" celebrated throughout
this state and in communities in
many other western states where
there are "Mormons" in commemora-
tion of the coming of the first pion-
GERS of that faith to the Salt Lake
valley.
An effort was made this year to
find as many as might yet be alive
of the original party which included
143 men, three woman and two
children, that they might be honored
figures at the ceremonies. Speakers
described at many of the celebrations
the hardships of the early settlers of
the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter
day Saints on their long journey
from Nauvoo, Illinois, to Salt Lake
City.
An added phase of the celebration
in this city this year was the de-
livery of a lecture especially for
persons not members of the 'sMor-
mon" faith in the assembly hall on
the temple grounds. This lecture, de-
Evered by Benjamin Goddard, presi-
dent of the bureau of information at
the temple here, was illustrated with
stereopticon slides and dealt with
early Utah history and the coming of
the pioneers.
The celebration this year was
under the auspices of the Daughters
of the Pioneers and the Daughters of
the Mormon Battalion, two leading
organizations of women members Of
the church. The day is legal holi-
day in Utah and stores, banks, of
fices and business houses generally
were closed. This is the seventy
third anniversary of the coming of
the pioneers.

SNAKE RIVER ROAD
CLOSED THIRTY DAYS
FREIGHT FROM CAMAS PRAIRIE
DISTRICT ARE NOW ROUTED
THROUGH MOSCOW

The O.-W. R. & N branch road be-
tween Moscow and Colfax is doing
the heaviest freight business it has
had in many months, due to the fact
that the road down Snake river
from Lewiston is still closed as re-
suit of the cloudburst and floods of
the storm that did such severe dam
age to Pullman and Wawawai. Long
freight trains are brought from Lew
iston to Moscow on the Northern
Pacific and switched to the O.-W. R.
& N. which takes them to Riparia by
way of Colfax, Endicott and La
Crosse There the cars are placed on
the Snake river road as the damage
to that line is many miles above
Riparia.
Friday evening the train out of
Moscow on the O.-W. R. & N. was
late owing to the heavy train of
freight cars that had to be taken
from the Northern Pacific tracks
and 'smade up" for the train on the
O.-W. R. & N The routing of
freight this way is an expensive mat
ter for the railroads but the damage
is so extensive that it cannot be re-
paired for some time.
Line Closed for 80 Days.
