R.. who talked a full two hours on the subject, 'Sunny Side of my Soldier Life.' As the title indi cates his address abounded in pleas ant word pictures of the ridiculous and funny side of army experiences, with just enough of the pathos to awaken the tender memories of by gone days and experiences that were too real and serious to have a funny side. The ad-, dress captured the audience, both old soldiers and civilians, and the boy of fifteen, who has now ripened into the gray headed comrade, was the hero of the day." CHRISTMAS PRESENTS. The Ladies of the Nampa Guild will give a fair December l5, and will have for sale many useful and unique ar ticles, such as doilies, center pieces, lunch cloths, etc. Supper from 6 to 10 p. m. SOLDIERS' HOME. Major J. A. McGinty is making quite a record in his management of the. Soldiers Home, and has been highly complimented by the Governor. Adju tant Reynolds' report for the month of November shows the cost of main tenance per capita was reduced 10 cents from the month before. For October the total expenses was 8999.21 and jtlie per capita expense per day 59 2-3 cents. For November the total was $905.60 and the per capita 49 5-8 cents. The number of inmates increased 5 and the average attendance 7. This reduction in cost was brought about in the face of extra expenses made necessary by the severe cold and by an accident ne cessitating additional medical atten dance. The account for November also includes 347.45 expended for per manent improvements. The saving the governor says, is affected by Mr. McGinty's thorough Knowledge of the needs of such an institution and by his practical methods. Much credit is also due Mrs. McGinty, who personally looks after many points where saving can be made. Withal, the manage ment is perfectly satisfactory to the inmates, the governor stating that he has not heard of a single complaint. The number of inmates of the home today is 72, four of whom are on leave of absence. The money paid by the national gov ernment towards the maintenance of the home is accumulating in the treas ury, as there is no law under which it can be used. It will be tbe duty of the incoming legislature to make provi sion under which the fund can be ap plied to the maintenance of the insti tution. This contribution is $ 100 per year for each inmate. Can't Eat This is the complaint of thousands at this season. They have no appetite; food does not relish. They need the toning up of the stomach and digestive organs, which a course of Hood's Sarsaparilia will give them.

The regular meeting of the city council was held Monday night. All councilmen with the exception of C. G. Stiles, present. The usual number of bills were pre sented, and but one disallowed, that of Police Judge Brumbaugh, who claimed both fees and salary. The statute pro viding that the police judge shall re celve as compensation the fees pre scribed for justices of the peace, tLe council was of the opinion, and the city attorney also, that his salary bill was not a legal claim. At this action the able judge registered a $16 kick, and gave notice he would sue the city. The judge is laboring under the delu sion he is also h justice of the peace. The fire committee, headed by Chief Thorp made a very full report of their tour of inspection of the city, which showed a number of defective Hues are being used, the most dangerous of which are in the Chinese restauants on Main street. The Marshal was order ed to take the report and see that the ordinance in regard to defective flues was strictly enforced. Mayor Gwinn was added to the fi nance committee, with instructions to go over the county books and deter mine whether or not any money was due the city from the assessor.
