About 150 excursionists fronipoints
in Idaho passed through La Grande
last evening wl:h a special train bound
for North Beach. The excursion was
somewhat similar to the one sent out
of La Grande two or three years ago
and the train this time carried only
Idaho s aside excursionists. The par

sections of the state, though Boise
sent the largest delegation of any of

Rear Admiral 8ir Colin Eeppeh was
given the command of tbe royal yacht
Victoria and Albert by King Edward,
and on one occasion wbeu tbe late king
was on board bis majesty thought be
wonM tike to steer tbe yacbt for a lit

Admiral Keppel took bim to tbe
wheel, and. having ascertained the
proper course to steer, bis majesty
tried to keep tbe yacht in it with rath
er poor success.
Tbe vessel was being escorted by a
squadron of cruisers, and tbe cap
tain of one of these vessels, noticing
tbe wabbly course of tbe Victoria and .
Albert, thought he would "rag" Ad
miral Keppel on his bad steering.
He signaled a sarcastic inquiry as to
the erratic course-of tbe yacbt and
King Edward, seeing tbe string of
flags go up. inquired their meaning.
Admiral Keppel wont all' tbe colors
of tbe rainbow and tried to escape tbe
question, but tbe king Insisted. When
at last be understood tbe meaning of
the signal bis majesty went off into

A few minutes later tbe captain oi
