back part Of the elbow. The left arm
was bruised and considerably injured,
but no bones wero broken. The doc

Ketchum Keystone

Paul Hubert, of Oregon, having in
charge band of 5000 sheep, was bru-
tally murdered by man named Frank
Armstrong, who had been working for
him, but for some reason was discharg =
ed at Bellevue. Hubert, on leaving
the river, proceeded in the direction OF
Arco, and last Saturday night camped
on the road, the sheep halting about a
mile this side OF the wagon. The next
morning Hubert was found murdered
and Armstrong, although following with
the band of sheep up to the last camp
ing place, was missing. He remained
in the hills until Monday night, when
he came to Era for food, when he was
arrested on suspicion of being the mur-
derer, and held until Deputy Sheriff
Cowan arrived, who took charge of him.
Armstrong confessed to tho officer that
he did the deed, and that two OF the
herders hired him to do it for S25, after
which they were to run off with the
stock. The prisoner was brought to
HALEY on Thursday night by Deputy
Cowan and Jack Campbell, and the two
herders, Blakely and Lyons, were also
taken into charge, to be held as wit
nesses.

Fires can be seen in the mountains
north of tho city any evening. Care
should be exercised by campers and
others in the mountains to prevent the
spread of fire, as great damage is like
ly to result. Every year there is twice
as much timber destroyed in Idaho by
fire as there is consumed for domestic
purposes.
Tho building of the Chicago q North
western railroad through Boise, the or
ganization of companies to put in water
works and the electric light, are among
the enterprises that will be completed
inside of two years. These, with other
improvements contemplated, will give
Boise q boom that will put tho city on
the highway to prosperity and growth.
A few years ago the land on the bench
on the south side of the Boise river was
considered worthless, but each year its
productiyoness is demonstrated, where
intelligent labor and water are cem-
bined to cl,im it from its desert condi-
ton. This land turns out to be tho best
clover land, and this season three crops
of clover will be cut by several settlers
who have settled there and are making
homes.
L. P. McMullen, attorney for the
Sperry Electric Light Motor and Car
Brake Co., of Chicago, is in tho city to
organizs company, if possible. TO put
in an electric light plant in this city.
He thinks q plant can be pnt in ii wa
ter power can be had OF w. ii. Kiden-
baugh or Cy Jacobs, for $4,000, that
will answer tho present needs of the
city. and furnish 800 lights. Several of
our &tizens have had this matter undor
consideration for some time, and it is
hoped the enterprise will now be con-
summated. We need such an enter
prise here, and there is no doubt but
enough lights would be taken to make
the investment paying ono.

THE EIGHT HOUR MOVEMENT
Chicago the Initial Point.

BOOT ana SnO0 M6nutactuIiHS ASoO~
citation have adopted constitution
and bylaw and appointed an execu-
tive committee to take care Of all
disputes and mango the general
concerns OF the association. A COM
munication was presented at Saturday
nights meeting from the Shoe Cutters
Assembly, notifying them that after
Monday next the men would work
eight hours q day for eight hours pay.
This state Of affairs Is to continue for
two weeks, but that on May 18th
schedule Of prices would be SUBJ
mitted to the association for its con-
sidsration. This proposition was ac--
cepted, with the distinct understanding
that 1t was not to have any effect upon
existing contracts or to work to the
prejudice Of employees who have
CONSENTED to work more than eight
hours. 1t was claimed that four.ffths
of the cutters In the city were members
of the assembly.
A Grand Rapids, Michigan, special
says: The furniture manufacturers and
their employees in this city have arriv-
I'd at an amicable adjustment of their
difnculties, and six or seven thousand
men employed there will continue
work uninterruptedly, beginning Mon
day, all Of them on the eight hour
system. There had baen quite n dis
cussion Of the wage question and the
workers request ten per cent advance
on their wages by the hour. A COM
promise has been secured. In some
factories the question Of wages is pretty
much left to the employers, with an
assurance from them that good business
will give the men ample satisfaction.
In some revision of the pay Tolls
has taken place, with slight advances
of from two or three to twelve or
fifteen per cent. The latter generally
to the lowest priced men, some of
whom will get even ten hours pay for
eight hours work. The workmen are
jubilant over the. outcome, and con-
ident that the near future will give
them all they had asked for. AT their
request they had general holiday
yesterday in honor of the establish
ment OF the eight hour system.
The executive committee of the
Knights of Labor, Machinists' Assem-
bly,, publishes card yesterday morn
Ing, which says: Messrs. Frazer and
Copamsrs, prcprietors Of the leading
machine shop in Chicago and the
Northwest, who have always paied
The highest wages in the trade, and
have never had any trouble with

liberality, conceded the eight hours to
the employees, and will run their shops
with two shifts if necessary. Messrs.
Crane Bros, have also conceded to
all Of their employees the eight-hcur
rule and If over.time Is necessary thevI
will pay a time and half for it, and
advance pay as circumstances may
warrant. The following firms have
conceded the same, Robert Tarrant

with cheering. After this the crowd
of strikers marched to Clark and

line four abreast. Great crowds turned
out to see the sight, and cheering the
men as they marched through the
streets toward the Michigan Central
freight house. AS they pursued their
way the streets became filled with
sight seers, but nothing approaching
disorder was apparent. 1t took but a

Central men to quit work. Almost be

rived Saturday morning in this city
from Washington and Immediately

he was met by his colleagues and the

OATS AS FOOD.
HEN MANURE IN SUMMER.

If the henhouse was properly
cleaned last Spring, and kept free
from vermin, the hens will roost in
it and make a considerable quantity
OF valuable manure, worth quite as
much as the grain fed to them. In
Summer fowls with a good range
eat a good many insects, and this
makes a richer manure than the ex-
elusive grain diet given in Winter.
