Governor Jam H. Hawley, of this

will either be Joined here by the other

communion of selecting sites for their
respective state buildings. The trip
may resolve Into a "Governor's special'"
to the California metropolis.
It Is probable that the four members
of the Idaho Commission from the
southern part of the state. Lieutenant
Governor U M. Sweetser. of Burlej :
Judge Edward I.. Bryan, of Caldwell:
George T. Atwater. of Merid-lan. and

their commissions at the same time.
They are Governor Ppry, of Utah: Gov
ernor Norris. of Montana: Governor
Oddle. of Nevada, and Governor Hay, of
Washington. In the event these ar
rangemente cannot be made, those Gov
ernors and their commissions who can
not make the trip In a body with the
other Governors may be abla to be In
San Francisco at the same time. Gov
ernor Hawler is in hopes that arrange,
nients of this kind can be perfected. It
has practically been settled that Gov
ernor Hay. nf Washington, will meet
Governor Hawler at Portland.
The Idaho Commission waa created
rthrough appointive power -placed in
the hands of Governor Hawley by the
11th Leglslsture. At the same time
the Legislature appropriated $1500 to
defrav the expense of the Commission
ers' trip, and while it Is in Pan Fran
cisco selecting the site of tha Idaho
building. Governor Hawley was made
the Commission's chairman.
I Diform Plana Propaaed.
It l:as been suggested that by ar
ranging to have the Western Govern
ors at Pan Francisco at the same time,
together with their respective com
missions, the selection of the states'
sites could be made along uniform
plans, thereby grouping them suitably
ss well as giving each the proper show
ing and at the same time so selecting
them as to give the West as a whole
the benefit of exploiting their products
and resources in somewhat of a com
pact body, through their buildings.
Governor Hawley has urged the next
Legislature to make a liberal appropria
tion for an Idaho building, for he be
lieves that the Panama-Pacific Expo
sition offers probably the best medium
the West has ever had to display its re
sources and to advertise.

ST. AXTHONT, Idaho. Marcli 11.
(Special.) After being delayed several
days by heavy snows, a hard of 15
elk in charge of State GameN 'Warden
W. L. Flnley and Chief Ueputy C. J.
Craig, of Oregon, Is now on Its way to
that state. The animals were brought
to St. Anthony from Jackson Hole.
Wyoming, by Government officers and
presented to Oregon free of charge at
this point. A great part of the ex
pense of taking them to the Ches
ninimus forest in Wallowa County,
where they are to be confined in a
2500-aore pasture. Is being met by the
Elk lodges of that state. The railroad
officials have also made an exception
ally low rate for the shipment.
The herd waa to have reached here
Tuesdaj-, but severe storms were en
countered on the Teton Pass and four
days were consumed In traversing the
first 28 miles of the journey. Notwith
standing this fact the elk arrived in
good condition Saturday and after be
ing allowed to rest up a day were start
ed on their long Journey in charge of
the Oregon officers. The task of bring
ing the animals from Jackson Hole to
-St. Anthony is a most difficult one.
Cratea are built on great sleds and with
four or five elk In the sled the Journey
across the mountains is fsr from easy.
The start was made with 25, but three
were lost on the pass. The other 22
eame through in good shai. Five
others, previously brought out, were
still here, and from these 27 Mr. Fin
lev was allowed to pick 15 of the
strongest and .best-looking animals,
with the result that Oregon Is getting
the finest bunch of elk ever taken out
of the , greatest elk country in the
world.
Elk to Eajoy Rest.
The shipment of elk reached Poca
tello this evening and should arrive at
La Grande some time Wednesday, rescn
Ing Joseph Thursday. The animals will
be given a day to rest, and then will
be loaded onto sleds and hauled about
40 miles to the forest where they are to
be liberated.
According to Game Warden Flnley
this herd of elk is to be kept In this
forest pasture and used as a nucleus
breeding herd from which to secure
elk to restock other portions of the
state. He savs Oregon was formerly

to $150 to $300 on every lot in the tract.
Remember, that we will positively discontinue the 15 per cent

This is the last opportunity that will ever be afforded to get

one of the greatest elk states in the
West, but that, owing to the absence
of proper game laws in past years, the
animal has become almost an extinct
species. He now believes that with
an awakened public sentiment it will
be possible to restore the noblest of all
game animals to his own. He says the
people of Oregon are rapidly awaken
ing to the necessity of co-operating
with the game department in Its ef
forts to protect the game of the state.
K.lk Lodsrea Interested.
Mr. Finley says the people of Oregon
sre greatly Interested in the importa
tion of this splendid herd of elk. Every
member of the Elks Lodges which have
contributed to the fund feels a personal,
interest in the matter, and It will hardly
be safe for any poacher to try to mo
lest them. The people of Eastern Ore
gon, through which part of the state
the herd will be .taken on its way to
the forest, are specially Interested and
are expected to turn out in large num
bers as the car- reaches their towns.
.The arrival of the car at Joseph will
j be almost as great an event as a Fourth
: of July celebration, according to tele
; graphic Information received by Mr.
finley while here. The entire town
will turn out to welcome them and a
great banquet Is to be served in the
evening.

5 Why this recommendation ?
f Because Old Clarke Bourbon is made by
the largest distillers in the world, Clarke Bros. &
Co., Peoria, in.
CI Because it is made from Perfect No. 1 Com and
smaH grain, using enough small grain to bring out
tfce flavor of the corn. It is made in a three cham
bered still, and is carefully aged in wood for at least
five years. This is the only correct method to
distill real whiskey.

The label over the cork shows it is five years old.

(.From Home Queen.)
The beauties of the Austrian court
used a lotton which was so effectual in
keeping the face smooth and free from
wrinkles, even in the aged, they named,
it the "water of eternal youth."
Some one recently has divulged the
secret of this wonderful, though ex
ceedingly simple, wrinkle lotion, which
in her gratitude she has similarly
dubbed a preserver of youth: One
ounce pure saxollte (powdered ), dis
solved in a half pint witch hazel
that's all there is to it. Any woman
can get these ingredients at her dru;?
store, put them together, and use the
solution with entire safety. To bathe
the face in the same brings immediate
results, even in case of the deeper
wrinkles and furrows. This is also ef
