Spokane, Wash., Aug. 18, 1902. Mr. A. D. Grimth, editor of tho "Now Age", was In Spokane for two or throe' days on a business trip last week. When asked regarding tho spoclal sig nificance of his visit ho replied "that he had been traveling thro' tho district covered by the "New Age" In Eastern Oregon and Washington In tho Inter est of his paper. The territory covered embraces many miles.- Ills patrons nnd numerous friends welcomed him heartily, and from the genial smile and cheerful aspect that "Grift" woro we suspect that his trusty old receipt book would have spoken volumes had It been produced. Mr. Grlfllh Is always n welcome visitor In this city, and tho next time ho comes we promlso to give him a fine reception. Many of tho Portland people resid ing here havo given tho local corres pondent of the "New Ago" their best congratulations and promlso loyal sup port In tho establishment of n big, growing circulation of their favorlto paper In this community. ''When I re ceive my paper each week," said ono of tho old-timers from Portland. "It seems Just like getting a letter from homo" nnd the appearanco of a weekly luttor from Spokano giving all tho live news Is also a notoworthy circum stance." Such unsolicited testimony an this lends great encouragement nnd renews tho determination of tho writ er to bring his department up to a high standnrd of efficiency from n newspaper standpoint, to tho end that the best interests of this community may be subserved and advanced. A large number of tho friends of Mr. and Mrs. Huston drove out to their delightful country homo Thursday, August 14, to partake of tho cordial hospitality of the charmlngg hostess. The occasion being n recoplon In hon or of Sergeant Huston of tho famous United States Cavalry (tho 10th) the urlvo of 4 miles was productive of much enjoyment nnd caused great merriment. Several nmuslng and laughnblo Incidents occurred. "Cap tain", B. R. Carlo was unfortunnto enough to loso his way and different parties arriving reported him many Titles away from tho scono of pleasure. It seems thnt Mr. Carlo took tho wrong forks of tho road and Instead of going b1 might to tho Huston Ranch ho trav olod farther away nt each Btop of IiIb fn Ih fill toam. After traversing a cir cuit of some dozens of .miles Mr. Carle "righted" himself and nrrlyed on tho ground two hours nnd twenty minutes Into.
