Library Goes With It,
(United PreM Leued Wire.)
Scranton, Miss., June 1. Wind result
ing in a choppy sea, caused a reversal
of the plans for the ceremonies today
attendant upon the presentation by the
state of a silver service to ' the battle
ship Mississippi.' The ceremonies com
menced at 10:30 o'clock this morning.
Governor Edmond F. Noel of Mississippi
dnlivered the presentation address, Cap
tain Fremont responding, upon behalf
of the ship and the men.
Governor Jared Y. Sanders of Louisi
ana and John Sharp Williams partici
pated in the ceremonies.
All ceremonies took place on shore
and unless the sea subsides before night
"It is probable that .no attempt will be
made to transfer the silver to the ship.
In that event it will be taken tp Phila
delphia and taken aboard there without
formality.
The waves were so hlarh that the
officers of the battleship were brought
ashore with difficulty. They made the
tHo in whale boats and many were so
badlv drenched that they were forced
to appear at the Casino at Anderson
park In civilian attire.

BOLDBURGLAIl GOT
15 CENTS' WORTH
(United Pres Leased Wire.)
San Francisco, June 1. Suddenly re
membering that It was the usual thing
to report robberies to the police. It. C.
Cassen hurriedly called up the police
last night and imparted the informa
tion that his house had been broken
Into.
"I have been robbed." he told tile de
tective, who was detailed to investigate
the case. "See. my window shows that
It has been pried open. My house has
been looted.
"No. It wasn't todav. It was exact
ly three months ago."
The officer was afraid that the scent
might be cold, but determined to do
his duty, he asked for a list of the miss
ing articles. After a careful Inventory
Mr. Cassen Itemized losses as follows:
"One lead tencll, 6 cents.
"One ran salmon. 10 cents.
"Total, 15 cents."
P Anderson VaHey. Or- Ma 27, I left
Diamond at ( o'clock this morning and
arrived hero at 3 this afternoon,. There
was a very heavy thunder storm over
the entire southern part of ths county
last night. It seemed to father udder
Stein's mountain, at the hd of Bllxen
river, and It swept down upon us at
Diamond about 8 o'clock. Heavens, how
it did rain! It came down for an hour
in a solid sheet, amid the flashes of
lightning and roars of, thunder. The
little hotel where I was staying rocked
and trembled like a ship on the ocean,
and the water poured from the roof like
a miniature Niagara.
Another Storm Bplla Up.
This morning it was clear, calm and
bright, and I left Diamond thinking that
a fair day and fine drive was before me.
But as I gained the divide after leaving
the Diamond vallev I saw the clouds
again banking un the Bllxen. Soon theyl
blackened and thickened and the light
ning flashed through them. "Dunder
and Bllxen P' Thatla the full name of
the river, and it takes its name from
the electrical storms of that valley, and
this, particular storm seemed to be
sweeping down on me and .before I felt
sure It was going to hit me It closed
down, and my, how It did strike me!
Hail and rain, and the coldest hail and
the wettest rain I ever felt I was now
driving almost due west and had four
miles to go oerore i couia nna oneiier.
The storm was beating against me
from the south and I could hardly keep
the team in the road. I had no shelter,
no protection, for I am using a buck
board wlthotu a top. I- got into my
overcoat an -quickly as I could "and cov
ered myself with an old set of harness
I was packing as a favflV to a ranch
man, but I assure you a set of harness
is but a poor covering.
felt Like an loeberg.
The water trickled down my spine,
filled my shoes, and. I was sitting in
a puddle of hall and ice water. Great
guns! how cold It was. And soon;iI
had gates to open, and at every gate I
had to hitch my team before I, opened
and then again while I closed Ihe
blamed thing and think of again
mounting to the seat and sitting down
afresh in that Ice water! I think I
opened less than 40 gates surely six
or seven.
However, I lived through' It and got to
i?.e.J.r,ncn house, of Frank Cawlfleld, on
Riddle creek by 10 o'clock Just as the
storm ceased and the auntcame out. No
men folks at home, ho wood - chopped!
So I warmed up by chopping wood, then
at by the Are and dried out, thanking
the good luck that I was a prohibltlon
istj for if, ever a man needed three
lingers of Old rye I needed .It then and
not a drop within 20 miles. And this Is
a pleasure Jaunt! I, am doing this for
fun.
Out for Another Valley.
'Well, I got dried -out, cared well for
my team, had a good dinner and at 12
o'clock I was off and away for Ander
son valley, set down on the map as
Mule, that, being the name of the post
office here. But a couple of miles
away another storm seemed to' be bear
ing down on me, but it missed me, all
but a sprinkle, and at 3 o'clock I drove
into the open arms of "Jim" Mahon. I
guess he Was christened James, but St.
Peter would refuse to receive him as
one of the elect by any other name than
Jim. And all who know him will rest
fully assured that I am. In good hands.
Mr. , Mahba's 'Yanch house la In sec
tion 19, township- 2b south, range 35
east, or nearly east from Happy valley,
but the road from that valley here
makes a detour to the north and around
Riddle mountain, which lies nearly west
of here.
I passed through much fine land on
tny route today, some of the valley lands
being abo6t as nice as any I have yet
passed. I noticed a flew homesteaders'
cabins and some improvements in the
way of small fields of grain and a gar
den or J wo. This afternoon the coun
try looked particularly fine, for the rain
hadi freshened things up wonderfully,
and thja rain,' by the way, seemed to
spread over the entire county. Mr.
Mahon received a phone from Harri
man and the fall was heavy there and
north of there, so It probably reached to
the mountains on - the north. It was
much needed and. will do a world of
good. And as for me! Well, such a
ducking might dull the ardor, smother
the seal or subdue the spirit of an old
or even middle aged man, but to a young
fellow like me It amounts to nothing.

KatherinA "My, how provoked I am, Anty. You wouldn't
dream this frock had once been white., Look at it
-now. I sent it to the laundress and it looks almost
the color of weak coffee with milk in it. ' '
Anty Drudge Tit's partly your fault,- my dear. You're
a college graduate, but you aren't educated until you
know what is best for your clothes. If you had
known enough to see that your white frock was
washed with Fels-Naptha soap in cool or lukewarm
water it would have been snowywhite. The
Fete-Naptha way is the only method of washing to
keep white clothes white without harming them."
Here's the easiest way that's ever been
discovered to wash clothes eitjier in sum
mer or winter.
For the white things: Wet the clothes,
soap well with Fels-Naptha, roll and let
soak for thirty minutes in cool or lukewarm
water. Unroll, rub lightly, rinse and hang
out to dry.
'. That's all; no boiling,' no hard rub
bing, no hot water.
This simple Fels-Naptha way of wash
ing makes your clothes sweeter, whiter,
cleaner than you can get them i:v other
way..
And the clothes last longer because
they are not weakened by boiling, nor
worn by. hard rubbing. x
