BEGIN SURVEY
AT NEZ PERCE
Speculation Over Work
of a Railway
Crew There
Special to Evening Teller.
Nesperce, Idaho, July 25—Excite
ment in high this morning over the ar
rival of a party of railroad surveyors
this morning from llo. The men be
gun work at once In the southern part
of the city and are running levels
toward the west In the direction of the
new town of Vollmer on the Northern
Pacific.
The report in last night's Evening
Teller that the Northern Pacifie had
started operations on a branch line to
this city caused considerable com
ment here, and the presence tills morn
ing of the surveyors in the city has
revived railroad talk and the people
are in high spirits.
No announcement has been made
from Northern Pacific circles that
these men represent that railway com
pany, but Information received by pri
vate parties this morning from author
itative sources confirms the belief that
this Is a permanent move on the part
of the Northern Pacific.
This assures Neiperce two railways
In the very near future. With the
completion of the Lewiston and
Southeastern electric line, active work
on which Is being done now with large
forces of graders, this city will hegln
to boom, ami a rapid advance In realty
Is expected soon.
The Nezpereo prairie Is one of the
richest farming sections of the state,
and amply nble to furnish business for
two railway systems.
Tame (.rouse Strutting.
Toward the end of September my
ruffed grouse began strutting, a per
formance similar to that of the turkey
gobbler. The tall Is spread, Hie black
niff thrown out around the head, and
Ute wings are dragged on the ground,
the object being to show all their new
feathers. As with turkeys, the young
hens strut as well as the cocks. In
strutting the Idrds Indulge In a deal of
bowing, tapping the ground or log with
the bill, and while shaking the head
from side to side give vent to hissing
sounds, slow at first and increasing In
rapidity and culminating In a prolong
6d hiss — "chuu — chilli — chuu ehuu —
ehuu — chuu chuu — chuu-chuu-chuu
chuuuuuuuuu" (hiss the syllables with
out vocalizing). The sounds are made
In the same tempo as the drumming
snd remind one somewhat of an auto
mobile starting tip. A cook may b»
thus engaged for hours together, pa
rading his charms before a demure lit
tle hen. while she persists tu looking
up at the sky or In nipping at a bud,
with not so much as a casual glance
out of the corner of her eye—the most
remarkable example of true masculine
patience and perseverance and of fem
inine heurtlcHsness us well. -Country

• ••••••
Old Farmer Cray and his elder sis
ter were Imviug some Nurt of discus
sion over the rightful age of a man
whose death was published among the
country newspaper notices. The paper
stated It Incorrectly, they were sure of
that. But they couldn't unite agree on
what was his proper age.
"lie's pretty nigh Brother Ill's age."
said Farmer Gray finally. "Leastwise
he was born the same year -mebbe not
to the month. I recollect a story
mother used to tell about—but I'll Just
go an' look up Ill's age iu the Bible."
The air of the "best parlor," which
he entered, was a bit close. The sun
never was allowed to shine In this
room more than once a twelvemonth—
It might fade the carpet. On a mar
ble toppisl table, resting on a worsted
mat, was the family Bible. The last
time Farmer Cray hail looked Into this
book he'd registered the baptism of his
baliy daughter. Madge. For his daily
readings he used a little New Testa
ment.
As he undid the heavy clasps of the
big Bible the pages opened themselves
at u place where there was some
pressed yellow sweet clover. The mere
sight of It somehow recalled faroff
memories. It recalled a certain sum
mer tlay so long ago. It was on his
honeymoon, and his young wife had
Just plucked these sprays of yellow
clover. "Thlpk you can love me as
long as this keeps sweet?" she had
asked archly, llow pretty she had
looked, laughing up into his face! llow
precious she had been to him! After,
ten years of happy married life their
long wished for child had come. When
the young mother died he had clung to
the baby daughter with double tender
ness. He simply worshiped her grow
ing girlhood. But she had run away
from hint and with an actor, and he
hud forbidden her ever to cross his
doorslll again.
The old farmer scarcely knew what
he was About, his head swum so.
Doubtless it was that strong, sweet
odor of the clover. Somehow It seem
ed to him t > be suddenly flooding the
whole room, filling his stubborn heart
with something very like pardon and
mercy.
Madge dragged wearily down Broad
way In a dazed sort of fashion after
•he had left the unctuous little man
ager Almost directly In front of a
theater she found herself walking Into
a small group of boys. They were jeer
ing a man who stood elose to the the
ater's entranee. timid and self distrust
ful. But Madge moved mechanically
toward the street curb In order to puss
on. She did not observe him.
"Wants to know where you go to
find out where the play actors live—did
you ever?" sareastleally Jeered one of
the urchins. "I say. Beulten, hadn't you
better 'tend to the hay crop?"
"Wot he wants t' do Is ter go on de
stage hisself an' find out," suggested
another urehin. A "can" came up the
street at this moment, and the old man
who had been affording the Ivoys
amusement took s few steps toward
hint. In doing so Ids eyes fell upon the
•light, girlish figure who had Just suc
ceeded In passing the group of urchins.
"Madge! Madge!" he gasped.
"Father!" Regardless of everything,
like a very little child she threw her
self Into his outstretched arms.
" 'Twas the yellow sweet clover done
It, darlln'." said he. n bit mysteriously,
while he patted her cheeks as of old.
