ESTRAY LAW.

Every person taking up any stray
animal, must within five days there
after, notify the owner thereof, if to
him known, and request such owner
to pay all reasonable charges and
take such estray away.
Any person finding an animal
known to be estray upon land en-
closed and in the possession of such
person, at any time between the
LIST of November and the 1st of
April, may Immediately take up
such animal as an estray; ORR dur
ing such time, an animal be found
upon premises occupied by another,
in a condition to require food to
preserve its life, it may be taken up
as an estray.
If the owner be unknown, the
taker-up must within ten days after
taking up such animal post written
notices giving a description Of ami
NAL, the marks, brands, natural or
artificial, the name and residence of
the taker-up, and the time the same
was taken up, one in three public
places in the county, and one at
the door Of the Auditors office in
said county, or give such notice by
publication thereof in a weekly
newspaper pubiished in the county,
in at least foarissues, the written
notice to be deposited by taker-up
in the County Auditors office.
If the owner appears at any time
withinftwo months after Eaid notice
is filed with the auditor, and make
out his right thereto, he entitled to
the possession of such estray upon
payment of all lawful charges; pro-
vided, that he need not pay for the
keeping of said estray more than
FIVE days prior to the filing Of the.
notice with the Auditor by the
taker-up.
If the owner and taker-up cannot
agree upon the amount Of charges,

THE estray law of Idaho Terri
tory as passed by the last legisla-
ture appears on this page. The re-
cent storm, doubtless not equalled
in severity in the range history of
this country, has driven hundreds
of animals from the hills to the
more sheltered parts of this valley,
only to find the same conditions as
the range-no feed, and that which
is worse, no water. 1t would be
but an act of humanity for those of
our ranchers who can possibly
spare the feed, to take up these
animals under the provisions of the
estray law. Hard-hearted, indeed,
must be the person who can COM
placently watch these poor, dumb
brutes, as they slowly succumb to
exhaustion, starvation and thirst.

At Huron, OAK, the other day
when the blizzard was at its height,
some unthipking teachers dismissed
young school children; the air was
so full of snow that one was unable
to see fifty feet. Five or six chill
dren got lost. Whistles were blown,
bells rung and people turned out
and took long ropes and walked
fifteen or twenty abreast back and
forth over the ground. All the
children save one were thus found.
A blizzard of unusual severity
prevailed last Thursday evening
over Dakota, Minnesota, Northern
Nebraska and Northern Iowa. A
mild, sunshine day wasin five min
utes turned into pandemonium of
snow, wind and cold. Hundreds
of persons persisted in the raging
elements. The air for hours was
full of whirling snow limiting the
range of vision in some cases to
less than ten feet. The only safe
method of moving about in this
heecy darkness was by means of
long ropes fastened at one end to
some secure object. A snow-bound
passenger train was rescued in
this manner; man would tie one
end of a rope to telegraph pole
and with the other end hunt until
he found the next pole. The list of
dead will reach over one hundred
in Dakota, twenty in Minnesota,
ten in Nebraska and ten in Iowa.

RAILROAD TALK.

A$aAsiibiG
1t is reported on good authority
that Notwithstanding the SHOWS of
winter are ON the ground in the
northern portion of the territory,
several parties Of civil engineers
have lately been dispatched in that
direction, to take advantage of alb
favorable weather to complete their
work. This looks as if railroad con.
struction would begin very early in
the spring, soon as the snow melts
most likely. The Cheyenne &
Northern and the Burlington will
occupy the field if the Union Pa
cific obtains its desired extension of
time in which to pay its debt to the
government from the Fiftieth Con-
gress.
The Northwestern, encouraged
by the development of the country
about. Douglas and Glenrock and
the preparations for developing the
oil basins just beyond, will not lie
idle at its present terminus while
its rivals are cavorting around it on
all sides, but will make another
bold dash toward the western
boundary line of Wyoming. There
will be such activity in railroad
building in Wyoming in 1883 as
has never been dreamed of in the
west before.
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1888-01-21

either party can make application
to any justice of the peace of the
county, and must also give notice
to the other party, and any amount
found due becomes a lien on such
estray, together with costs.
If any person does not appear
and substantiate his title and pay
charges within two months from
the time when such notice is filed
with the county auditor, such es-
tray must be sold at the request of
the taker-up by the sheriff or any
constable of the county, at public
auction, upon first giving public no
tice in writing by posting the same
in three of the most public places
in the precinct where such estray
was taken up, at least ten days be-
fore such sale; and the taker-up
may bid thereon at such sale. At
ter deducting all charges and costs,
the remaining proceeds of sale must
be deposited in the county treasury.
If any person, without consent, Of
taker-up, takes away any estray
without paying all the lawful
charges, he is liable to the taker-up
for the full value of such estray.
If the taker-up of an estray neg
lects to cause the same to be adver-
tised, or if he neglects to perform
any of the duties required of him
by this Title, he is precluded from
acquiring any right Of property in
such estray, and from receiving
damages for keeping the same, and
he forfeits and must pay into the
county treasury q sum equal to the
value of such estray, to be sued for
and recovered by the County Treas
urer in the name of the county.
If the owner or claimant of any
estray within six months after the
sale, makes satisfactory proof to the
County Commissioners, they must
order the treasurer to turn over to
said claimant the remaining pro-
ceeds of such sale.
No animal can be taken up as an
estray between the 1st of April and
the first of November.

Boise City, Idaho, Dec. 9, 1887.

the way, but it was too late. The
thermometer indicated 81 degrees
below zero and the water frooze to
the wheels and track as fast as it
struck them. Everything was done
that could be thought of to stop the
flow of water, but it didn't stop I'M
til the tank was empty and the
track was full to the top of the rails
for nearly three car lengths. Every
effort was made to move the train
but it wouldn't bulge and was not
budged until another engine pulled
it out from the rear.
The season is now at hand when
the deadly avalanche reaps its an
nual harvest. The Ketchum Key
stone thus records the first fatality
of the season: A snowslide occurred
few days ago at Horshoe Bend,
near Park City, resulting in the
burial alive of a miner by the name
of Baxter. 1t seems that Baxter
and another man by the name of
Madden undertook to make a jour
ney from one mine to another, and
the two approached a point known
as Horseshoe Bend. Madden saw
possible danger in huge bank of
snow that partially overhung the
fiat. He cautioned Baxter to re-
main where he was until he Mad
den) had got by, so that in case
there was slide one of them would
be left to give the alarm. Madden
had just got by the danger point
when he heard an ominous crack
ing, and sure enough the huge
mass of snow had started, and to
his horror he saw that Baxter had
disregarded his instructions and
had followed soon after. The UNI
fortunate man also saw his doom,
and calling out to his companion
said he was "ready to meet it." He
saw that his escape was useless,
placed his shoulder to the bank
and in an instant was buried in the
avalanche.
On the I'd of January the dwell
ing of R. H. Brown at Brownlee's
Ferry, near Ruthburg, Washington
county, says the Weiser Leader,
was entirely destroyed by fire. The
saddest of all was the burning to
death of the little eight-year-old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Maggie.
Mrs Maggie Is daughter of the
Browns. The fire was discovered at
6 o'clock in the evening, the men
being away. AS soon as Mr.. Maggie
arrived he asked his wife if the
children were safe, and then for the
first time she missed the little girl.
She remembered, however, that
when the alarm of fire was given,
she was sitting by the stove with
the little girl by her side asleep
with her head resting on her moth
er's lap. In the excitement Mrs.
Maggie caught her younger child in
her arms and left the burning house
never thinking of the poor little
helpless sleeper by her side. When
Mr.. w. heard this he dashed through
a window, into the fire to save his
child. He very soon came out and
barely escaped with his life, and
might have lost it even then had
they not showered him with water
as he crawled out. His clothing
was nearly burned off. The suffer
ings of these people on that bitter
cold night must have been intense.
Fifteen persons, including four
women and six children, driven
out of a good, comfortable house in
the cold and snow.

If you are seeking conven-
fence combined with comfort
and staying qualities, we can,
from a thorough knowledge Of
our own and the verdict of your
neighbors, recomend a Racine
Spring Wagon. We carry a
line of these Vehicles manu-
featured especially for the wes-
tern trade. In their construc-
ton the makers keep in view
the severe use to which they are
necessarily put on mountain
roads and in dry climates.
They can, therefore, be relied
upen to stand the test for the
greatest number Of years.
Most Spring wagons are simp-
ly things of beauty" but a Ra-
cine spring wagon is "a joy
forever" because Of it's sterling
merits.

A brakeman on the Utah &

at Beaver Canyon, slipped and fell

entirely severed about two inches
above the knee. He was taken to
Pocatello where he died the next
morning.

A correspondent to the Idaho
Democrat from Centerville says
that bedrock fiume company has
been organized and will commence
operations during the coming sea-
son. They will commence about
three miles below Boston, on Grimes
Creek and will run a tunnel through
Cape bud Snow, which latter holds
the key to the pass. BY making
the cut through the mountain some
five hundred feet they will have
about forty feet of a dump for their
fume. The size of the fume will
be from fifteen to thirty feet wide.
One of the most singular acct
dents we ever saw, says the Eagle
Rock Register, occurred here on
Sunday last. After supply an en-
CINE with water the fireman attempt
ed to shut off the supply but it
wouldn't shut off worth cent. He
worked with it for perhaps twenty
or thirty seconds a stream of water
pouring on the end of the tender;
seeing he could not make itjumped
and pulled the throttle TO get out Of
