Another^flow was noticed some hundred yards far^^ther east, across the creek, which spread^out orrr the water a thin film of th*^standard article. George Adlam, who^was with the experts who visited the^Kootenai oil fields across the line some^years ago, says he saw more oil back of^l'a is ley's than was found in the Kootenai^country.

The^| shrill whistles of paising boats greeted^I the ilea- flyer. Sawmills and factories^I sent forth their greeting'* in prolonged^toots of steam whistles; locimmvct on^each side of the river, as they passed and^^ repassed, opened their steam chests and^Bu.uti'd, while even the youngsters whose^delight it is to bathe in the waters of the^river, stood up on saw logs and the- ad-^jacent banks, clad in nature's garb alone,^and waved their bands and yelled them^^selves hoarse as the steamer passed them.

Theseand similar shouts, leveled at the^head of some unlucky wight, brought^roars of laughter from tho soldiers, and^from the \ iciim's unsympathetic friends. Atone house a pale, boyish-looking^youth was noted at a window with a lady.^Itoth MM rgeiieaily waved handkerchiefs,^and the men answered with a yell; but^tin- opportunity was too good to lose. Colin-right along, sonny!^ was the^cry- ^ih^ lady'll spare ycr! Here's a^little mil-kit fur ye!' Allright, boys!'' cheerily responded^the youth, rising from hts seat. ^Have^you got a leg lor me, too*.'' and Colonel Fstruck the shortest of stumps on the windowseat.
