East-Bound Rates To b

East-BOund Rates To Be Restored To-Day.
Commissioner Doherty, of the indianapolis
east-bound pool, last evening received tele-
gram from Commissioner Fink, stating that the
eight roads leading east from Chicago had
agreed to restore rates to the basis
of 20 cents per 100 pounds from Chicago
to New York, and requesting him to notify
agents of the indianapolis roads in the east
bound pool to make the usual proportionate ad-
vance and it is understood that with the close of
navigation rates will be advanced another cents
per 100 pounds. An official of prominence re-
marked last evening that it seemed like boys
play to reduce east bound rates at the present
time to meet the cuts of certain dis
honorable fast freight lines. Shortly there will
be plenty of business for all the roads to do
as on October 20 lake navigation is virtually at.
an end for some months. To be sure up to No
vember 10 lake insurance is taken, yet ship
ments by lake are light after the middle of this
month; and, with navigation closed business
win improve and certainly the roads are now
poor enough without hauling freight at low
rates through the winter months.

Fly Loo.

This new device for gaming is
said to be very enticing. 1t is ex-
ceedlngly supple, easy to learn, and
the greatest neophyte may be as suc-
cessful as the oldest expert. It is
played by borrowing as many Jumps
of sugar from the bar bowl as players,
placing them on the bar counter and
waiting. The owner of the lump on
which a fly first aligbts is winner, and
the game opens again. The stakes
are all the way from the drinks to as
much money as the players choose to
put up, and sometimes considerable
sums are wagered on the fancy of a
sweet toothed fly. 1t is all the rage
down east, and it is common and
amusing sight to see solid looking
business and professional lights watch
ing the antics of house fly. Ifany-
one thinks it is not fascinating game,
let HIM try it. 1t requires no license
to play it.

boxes in the new postoftice so arranged
that the owners could get to them at
all hours of the day or night, Mr.
Burkhart, who is now making prcpa-
rations fer the Office in his store, says
that while he will endeavor to afford
the postoffice patrons every possible
accommodation, he will be unable to
keep the office open all night, as, being
only third class office, the govern
ment neither pays rent nor allows suf-
ficient compensation for clerk hi,e. In
Bellevue the boxes can be got at at

Postmaster johnson will soon have a
stock OF goods in, and then the place
will be locked up as in all third-class
offices.
The Office here, Mr.. Burkhart SAYS,
will be open from 6 o'clock in the
morning until 10 o'clock at night, and
in case the mail is late, even as late as
midnight, it will always he opened and
assorted Immediately on arrival, and
the office kept open at least one hour

The mails for Bullion, ketchum and
all outside towns will always be ready

after they reach here and if there is
any delay in the mail service between
Haley and the outside towns, Mr..
Burkhart will see that the fault shall
be with the Carriers, and not with him

AN UNLUCKY DRUMMER.
The Trouble He Got Into by Refusing t.

Pay $3.50 for Storage.
F. Ephraim, the cigar dealer, is in
trouble. Some weeks ago he came
here and made his headquarters with
S. Levy, the auctioneer, who charged
him ~ per day-an amount which Mr..
Ephraim cheerful]y paid. After he
left here, however, valise and some
stuff remained behind, for the storae e
Of which Mr.. Levy charged him fifty
cents per week. When Mr.. Ephraim
returned, he refused to pay the storage
and replcvined his valise. Mr.. Levy
thereupon got hot in the collar, and,
somehow or other, Deputy Collector
Of Internal Revenue Berry has got on
the track of Mr.. Ephraim, who is to
be prosecuted for selling cigars with
out having obtained a preliminary
license from the United States author
tiles.
Mr.. Ephraim owns house and lot
on Nam street, between Bullion and
Carbonate, in this city, and it is likely
that the prosecution against him will
cost him all of 81 900, before it is over.

THE CEUR D'ALENES.
The Latest Reliable Report-There Is

J. c. Darlington, who was formerly
Assistant Superintendent of the Bull

that it is undoubtedly rich, and that
in few years great deal of gold
will come out of there, but much cap
ital and muscle will be required to get
at it. In the meantime it is no place

AND NOW FIRE CLAY.
A Quarry OF Genuine Kaolin Found
Within q Mile Of Ketchum,

Within a Mile Of Ketchum.
There is no end to the variety of dis
covery in this Wood River region.
A small cube of an exceedingly
fine quality of fire clay or kaolin, such
as is used for making choice porce-
lain, was shown in the District Court
to-day. 1t contains no lime, and is
entirely incombusible, never as much
as changing color, even when
submitted to a blow-pipe test.
The specimen comes from a
new discovery about a mile east of
Ketchum, of regular quarry of the
clay. Judge Morgan, who is inter-
ested in the quarry, will have some
work done upon it aud the clay sub
jccted to tests, to ascertain what 1t is
good for. Its appearance seems to
indicate that it is just the thing for
lining furnaces, making porcelain,
polishing cutlery etc, while it is found
in sufficient abundance to be used for
binding stone, if suited to that pur-
pose.

He Is Out In Iowa, Organizing Another
Colony for Wood River.

NvsVasy IVA vVVEA AbbyCbs
DIR. J. M. Rice. who brought in a
colony or two from the East, this
spring, is again in the States, organ
izing another colony for this fall. His
headquarters are corner Main and
Fifth streets, Keekuk, Iowa, and 622
South Tenth street, Omaha, Ne
braska, and he will start for HALEY
with his colony from Keokuk Septem-
Der 2lst.
DR.. Rice is an old Idahoan who is
thoroughly familiar with our climatic
and mineral features, and he can re-
liably inform any who may wish to
emigrate here. Being man Of sound
sense and good business ability, he
will doubtless discourage any from
coming who will not be prepared to
sustain themselves through the winter
months, and will therefore see that all
who do come are skilled agriculturists
who will be prepared to put in fall
crop for next years harvesting. If
he is careful as to this, he can scarcely
go astray in his encomiums Of this
region. Out on Camas Prairie alone
there is room for at least 1000 fami-
lies, and the land is so prolific that the
crops are the best-paying that can be
raised anywhere.

Its Funds for the Year Beginning Sep.
TENDER First Will Hardly Keep 1t
Open Four Months.

School Census Marshal H. Steven.
son has nearly completed the census
Of children Of school age in this dis
trict. In couple of days he will
probably turn in his report.
Last year Marshal E. b. Lennon
reported 3Ol children of school age in
the district; but he then took in the
stretch Of country halfway to Belle
vue on the south, to the head of Quiy-
ley and Indian gulches on the east,
to the Gilman bridge on the north,
and to Deer Creek and Gilman on the
west.
This year, however, under the rul-
ing of Superintendent d. E. Wald-
ron, the Marshal has been limited to
the town plat and to the land bounded
by Banfeld's corral on the north,
River street on the west, the middle
Of the ditch this side of the race
track on the east, and line drawn
about 800 feet south of the HALEY
brewery on the south. On the land
cut off from this district reside over
100 children who have been attend
ing the Haley public school, but who
will be debarred from doing so in
future.
c. P. Croy's son, for instance, would
have to go to Bullion; SO would Mr..
Lambs children and J. L.G. Smiths;
they will have to go distance of
about seven miles, willie schoolhouse
is within quarter-mile OF them. Mr..
brakes children, who live WITHIN a
half-mle of the Haley schoolhouss,
will have to 60 to Bellevue, five miles
away; Judge Purviance's children will
probably have to 60 to Ketchnm-l2
miles away; and Mr.. fuckers, Of In
dian Creek, will have to go to Ketch-
UNI, unless, indeed, they should be in
Guided in the Little Wood River dis
trict, when, instead of coming one
mile to HALEY, they would have to 60
80 or 40 to Muldoon.
Mr.. Waldron being lawyer, it is to
be feared that his Interpretation of the
law is correct. But this is only an
other instance of the insutficiency of
the laws made by our polygamous
masters for us, their Gentle serfs.
The apportionment from all sources,
last year, to the HALEY school fund,
barely suiliced to keep our public school
open for seven months of the year.
If, therefore, the amount of school
money apportioned for 3Ol school
children only sufficed to keep the
school open for about seven months,
the amount apportioned to 1913 THAT
is about the number this year, children
will hardly suffice to keep it open
four months.
The outlook for the Haley public
school is therefore anything but en-
couraging.
