Three Days’ Carnival Loup City will hold a three days’ Carnival some time this fall. This was decided upon at a meeting held on Mon day evening of this week. For some time, the local papers have been advocating the holding of another Carnival this fall and the response has been most flattering from all with whom the editors talked. On Monday, Bro Brown and The Northwestern quill pusher canvassed the business portion of town and called a meeting for that evening in the old Times build ing. At the appointed time the build ing and street adjacent was packed with an enthusiastic throng of pro Carnival enthusiasts, and no dissenting advocates. The meeting was organized by selecting Judge Wall as chairman and Bert Chase as secretary. A motion to hoid a three days’ Carnival met with unanimous approval and Messrs. II M. Mathew, K. P. Starr and M. C. Mulick were chosen as an executive committee, with full power to select sub-commit tees, arrange for and attend to all matters pertaining to the Carnival, selecting the dates, and in fact being the “Head Push” and de facto organizers and commanding officers of the Carnival that is to outdo all preceding events of the kind ever held in Sherman or ad joining counties.

Neiiama, Ore.,—I mu*t continue my oFten Interrupted story of our delight ful visit to the mountains. I must hasten over the story of our second fishing excursion, and will only say that while the guide and the Baby Schoolmaara were catching fourty-four speckled beauties, the Nebraska Girl succeeded In landing two small trout. And I must not omit telling you about the salmon which we saw in the deep pool, renting after their long journey from the ocean. We watched them for a long time, but even the ferti'e brain of the guide could not devise any plan by which one of them could be induced to come ashore. But the crowning event of our moun tain trip came when on Wednesday the Baby and the guide, both experi enced campers, packed up for a three days outing and we started for House Mt. Rock. We had a pack horse and two saddle horses, which the ladies took turns in riding. We had to ford the river, the guide riding ahead on the pack hor-e and then taking a horse back for the Little Moth-r. Our trail followed the river a little wav, up across Canon creek, then away from the woods and up a very long steep hill covered with tall ferns. The heat was intense and there was no shade except an occasional tree and no water. When wTe finally reached the timber agtin, we knew howto appreciate its cool shade, after our two hours or more of hard climbing in the sun. The guide went in search of water, and finding none, returned with some delicious ealmon berries and after eat ing them we no longer felt the need of h drink. Our trail led us up over a rocky ledge where the ascent was steep and the summit not more than three feet wide sloping down into canons on either side. From the highest point the view was extensive and beautiful, the descent being very abrupt, and at the base we found a tiny spring, though the water was not very cold it was very grateful to our thirsty palates. Only a few more hills and we' dis covered a little creek where we stopped for lunch After luncheon we pulled leaves and mosses for pilolws and lay down for a half hour’s rest. But time was flying and we were still a long way from the Rock, so we re sumed our journey, travelling all the way through a dense forest of the grandest trees, up hill and down, with the trail growing dimmer and still more dim. 1 h) underbrush obstructed our path and the long slender, graceful branches F- E.

Insure your crops in the St. Paul Fire and Marme Insur ance Co. of St. Paul, Minn. the vine maple drooped across our path, without a thought to onr con venience. There were holes at regular intervals in the trail, made by a little animal called the mountain boomer; and used as our horses were to watching for them, they would sometimes stumble into one At last we caught a glimpse of the Rock quite close at hand. I can not describe to you the feeling of wondering, admiring awe with which [ beheld this stupendous mouument to the Creator’s power and glory. “The firraanent declares the glorv of God, and the earth showeth his handi work.” Soon we came out upon the shore of beautiful Mirror Lake, and dismounted in the loveliest place for a camp. For a time we could do nothing but stand spell bound and gaze upon the maesive masonry of House Rock and the beauty of the lake, in whose clear depths the Rock and surrounding trees were reflected. But soon the guide led the way to a spring of ice-cold water and the Happy Four proceeded to quench their thirst, and carry som? back with them to uee in preparing supper. The guide built a fire and prepared to pitch our tent, while the Baby being the only one of the ladies who under stood the mysteries of “sog,” was soon engaged in getting supper. x\fter tea we pulled ferns for beds and then sat down to enjoy a quiet talk by the camp fire, until weariness began to assert its sway over us and kneeling we thanked God for all we were enjoy ing and retired. The Little Mother had the morning meal all ready when the Baby and the Nebraska girl got up the next morning and had to wait while they went to the s;ring and made their toilet, but as the guide helped her while away the time, their effusive welcome did seem rather overdone to be sure. That forenoon we w'ent away off through the woods to look for elk moss and came back with an armful of it, also large bouquets of rhododendrons and other flowers. We left them in camp and went to explore the lower storv of the rocky castle. Ihere was an ascent of about six or seven hundred feet, which was m tde rather hard climbing by being so cover ed with loose shifting stones Then from that point the solid rocky w all rose perpendicular to the top of the mountain The guide and the Baby spent two or more hours in exploring all the attractions of the ledge, and finallv re turned to the Nebraska Girl and the Little Mother, bringing with them a great block of snow. We ate all we wanted and played snowball with the rest on the last day of June. We returned to camp, ate our lunch and prepared to ascend the mountain. The Nebraska Girl. (Continued next week.)
