POCATELLO WILL PAVE. j
Practically Unanimous Decision for
Bltullthlc Property Owners ,
. Pleaxed.
The award recently made at Poca-
tello, Idaho, for bltuUthlc paving, was
practically unanimous, as the deci
sion was reached 6nly after the com
mittee appointed for that purpose, and
a number of Interested property own
ers had made a very thorough investl
gatlon of the paving In use In the
more progressive cities of the north
west. The durability of this paving.
which means a low cost of mainte
nance, combined with Its beautiful ap
pearance, the entire absence of chuck-
holes, and the fact that It has a non-
slippery surface, which adds to the
safety of both horse and auto drivers,
has caused bitullthlc paving to make
s remarkable advance In public favor.
Property owners In Pocatello are
enthusiastic advocates of Its merits as
the practical, ' economical pavement
which will withstand all tests of traf
fic and climatic conditions.

CURIOUS BATTLEFIELDS.
An indoor Attack and Cavalry Charge
en a Naval Fores.
At the battle of Monterey, in the
Mexican war, our troops were able to
command tbe street of the city with
their artillery, but they experienced
much difficulty In driving tbe Mexicans
from tbelr hou Aowdlngly. as the
city was built of stnn or adobe, the
American tirnk rhrouitu tbe walls
from one ouiim io another, lighting and
driving out tbe enemy as tbey proceed
ed. Tbu. it appears, tbe battle of
Monterey wan largely fought Indoors.
In tbe time of William tbe Silent
when the Netherlands were fighting
tbe Spaniards, a number of 8panlab
vessels bees me frozen In on the Zuy
der Zee. Out csme tbe Dutch on horse
back on tbe Ire to attack the Span
lards. This is probably the only battle
of record wherein cavalry was em
ployed directly against a naval force.
There have been bsttles fought un
derground. Cblefest of these was ths
fierce encounter pertaining to the
siege of Haarlem In tbe Dutch wars.
Tbe Spaniards mined and the Dutch
countermined wltb equal industry, and
below tbe ground a terrific conflict en
sued. When, sfter the commune, the Ver
ssllles troops took Paris they chased
terrain of the eomrounlat forces to tbe
greet sewers of tbe French capital, and
in these more tbao one sanguinary bat
tle occurred. New York Press.
What Is Happiness?
Happiness is tbe greatest parade: In
nature, it can grow In any soil, live
under sny conditions. It defies envi
ronment It comes from within. It Is
the revelation of the depths of tbe in
ner life as light and beat proclaim the
jga fjam whib, bey radiate. Happi
ness o6uisl a& of having, but of be
ing; not of posh!sstng, but of enjoy
ing. It is tbe warm gbw of beart at
peace within itself A martyr at tbe
stake may have bupplneus that a king
on hs tjgone might envy. Man is tbe
creator of bis own happiness. It is tbe
aroma of a life lived in harmony with
high Ideals. For what a man bas be
may be dependent on others; wbat be
la rests with him alone. What be ob
tains in life is but acquisition: wbst be
sttslns Is growth Happiness Is the
sonl's Joy In the possession of the in
tangible. Wllllsm George Jordan.
