? Some cattlemen left vicious steer
in the streets of Caldwell which disputed
the right of-way with pedestrians, vehi
Giles and. dogs. Marshal Galloway and
his little gun soon found the key to the
situation and settled the affair at tho
cost of funeral. J

quarterly examination of teachers will
be held at Nampa and Payette on Feb

The county bridge at Star is rapidly
approaching completion, the two end
spans are already in place while the
middle span is framed and will be
placed in position as soon as the state
of the river will permit. Commissioner
Martin thinks the bridge will be ready
for travel in about two weeks.
Wednesdays stage from Reynolds
creek brought the startling information
that Bob Noble. the well-known Owy-
hee stockman was dangerously i'll.
Further Investigations developed the
fact that he had been sick for a month
and had been gradually growing worse.
Last accounts, we are pleased to state,
are to the effect that he is improving.
A couple of very creditable paintings,
the handiwork of Miss Lille Dorman,
are on exhibition at Hooyer's store.
One of them represents Dry Buck, the
historic place where the Caldwell camp
ers made their headquarters last sum-
mer, and immortalized by the young
lady who lost leaf of her diary. BY
the way, the author never called for
that bit of manuscript.
A rare treat is in store for the amuse-
mentioning people of Caldwell in the
near future. Local talent is now re-

scenery is completed. The date has not
yet been fixed upon. Caldwell has
plenty of good local talent and the
entertainment will be worthy the sup
port and patronage of all.
Mr.. Huston Frost, of the valley, III
town Wednesday, reported considerable
sickness in his locality-mostly the
grip. He also spent most of the week
riding the range between Boise and
Snake rivers, and is of the opinion that
there will be a total loss of all cattle
that are out-every animal that was
seen being practically gone now. With
horses Mr.. Frost thinks there will be a
heavy loss though not total.
An exciting race took place ut Namps
last Saturday between horses belonging

The latter won the race, and another
match was Immediately made, to come
Off today at 3 o'clock. We understand
Caldwell sports are backing the heater
horse for several hundred dollars, ant
that johnson will take a big load o.
men and money to Nampa this morn
ing. The horses have been in training
all week, and the event bids fair to b,
, exciting.
