Last week we mentioned that a number of Mountain Home citizens had gone to Oregon to locate tim ber claims, which they succeeded in doing to their own satisfaction. They were a jolly set and tell of many laughable incidents that oc curred on the trip—Tom Mellan being the "joker-in chief. 1 Sheriff C. M. Nicholson tells a good 'one on "Bones" Williams. It seems that when Mr. Williams wished to retire he was assigned to an upper berth in the sleeper and Mr. Nich olson occupied the one immediate ly below him. "Bones" left his calf skin shoes on the floor and the Ex porter, as usual, "shined 'em up" and returned them to their place betöre morning. After a refreshing sleep "Bones" awoke and called to Clarence to "please hand up my shoes. 1 Mr. N. did so, but, to his astonishment "Bones" became in dignant and threw the shoes to the floor, saying "they are not my shoes—my shoes are plain leather —not patent leather"—and called loudly for the porter, who forth 1 I Grand I 1 Christmas É I Ball I m - TO At Lower Masonic Hall >M TO SILVER.

The Khedive of Egypt. The khedive, who has again ar rived in London, is a fine specimen of the all-round man—the student and the athlete. He learned Eng lish as a child under tutors spe cially selected and sent to Cairo for his benefit, and that of his brother, Prince Mehemet. When 12 years of age, says the West minster Gazette, he entered the celebrated Haxius school at Geneva, and afterward continued his scholastic career at the There sianum at Vienna, from which lie was called by the sudden death of his father, the Khedive Tewfik, to ascend the throne of Egypt at the age of 18 in 18112. At Vienna lie was something of a favorite with the Austrian emperor. The khedive's knowledge of lan guages is extensive. During tlie course of an "audience day" it frequently happens that lie dis cusses questions of state with the British and United States dip lomatic agents in excellent Eng lish, with the representative of France in faultless French, and with the German in the choicest language of the Austrian Later, he conducts affairs with the sultan's court. representative in Turkish, and may conclude the day by presiding over a council of his ministry, when all sorts of in ! f ieate details of policy are ar- : ran ged in Arabic, tlie native [ tongue of Egypt, and one of the ' most difficult of languages.

The khedive is a strict Moham medan, and as such eschews both wines and spirits. His abstinence may see his I goes even further, for in a eoun ! try where everybody smokes he will have nothing to do with the fragrant weed. Like his father, he I is a monogamist, although his re ' ligion allows him four wives. He is known to be greatly attached to his consort, who was a Circassian lady of the khédivial household before her martiage. In fact, he is essentially a domestic man, and is very fond of children.
