SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
Mr.. Robert Bruce Badly Hurt By a
Runaway.

On Thursday Mr. Bobert Bruce left
DeLamar for his Castle creek ranch,
with four-horse team and load of
empty boxes in which to pack fruit
His team, from some cause, ran away
while going down the Scotch Bob hill,
throwing him from the wagon. In the
fall his leg was caught in the wheel and
broken between the knee and the an
kle. The leg is very badly broken, the
bones having been driven through the
flesh and crushed to such an extent that
amputation may be necessary. Mr..
Bruce was dragged about one hundred
yards from the road to which he crawled
back after the accident and laid there
several hours before he was found by
Elijah Lewis, who went to Silver City
and got team to 60 out and bring him
in.
Mr.. Bruce is one of the best known
and brightest men in the county. He
is the Peoples party candidate for rep
resentatiye whose election is almost
conceded. 1t is to be hoped that his re-
covery will be speedy and that be mar
be able to take his seat in the legisla-
ture.

$500 PER YEAR

The mass meeting to hear the report
OF the committee appointed to see for
what sum grounds could be obtained
for base ball park and racing track, was
well attended. In substance the report of
the committee was that suitable ground
could be leased very reasonably and
$500 would be required to fence, level,
build stands, etc. Several speeches
were made and ideas advanced. Some
were in favor of only the ball grounds,
while still Others favored organizing a
fair association. A committee was
appointed to solicit subscribers to the
stock, and what will eventually be done,
will depend much upon the success of
this committee. There will be another
meeting next Tuesday night, when it
is expected that more decisive action
will be taken.
Several of Caldwel's pretty young
ladies gave leap year party last We'd

tered bus and went the rounds gath
ering up the frightened young men
wherever they could find them. The
parents of some of these tender plants
objected to their sons being out so late
at night, but the girls promised to take
good care of them and bring them back
safely. The young ladies made brave
and gallant escorts, while the blushing
young gentlemen were just too sweet
for anything. An elegant supper was
served during the evening. Just how
many young ladies embraced the oppor-
tunity Chats all the boys ever get to
embrace) and with what success they
met, is yet matter to be learned.

The firm of Reed & Dorman take
pleasure in informing the people of
Caldwell and the farmers of Boise
valley that they have secured the
agency of the State Insurance company
of Salem, Oregon, which is acknow-
lodged to be the strongest Insurance
company doing business in Oregon.
Washington and Idaho only. they
make specially of insuring farmers
houses, barns, grain and live stock.
They have no two-thirdS, three fourths,
sixty or ninety day clauses in their
policy. They pay their losses without
deduction for interest and pay all
losses at once.
The company is purely an Oregon in
stitutlon composed of well known men
with cash capital of 100000. They
belong to the Pacific Insurance unioi
which is sufficient to guarantee their
ability as being able to meet all losses.
Insurance is like patronizing your
home merchants instead of sending
your money out of the country and
thereby cause direct loss to your
home merchant and in time material
loss to yourself and community.
Such being the case, which we can
not deny, why give your Insurance to
to strangers and outside companies
when you can get Insurance in such
companies rs the State, represented by
men in your own country whom you
know would not recommend a COM
pany not perfectly reliable?

A ball largely attended and on a magnii-
icent scale was recently given in New York
to Mr. Charles Broadway Rouss by his hun
dreds of employees in commemora'lon OF
his birthday. The hall was beautifully
decorated and brilliantly illuminated. That
Mr.. Rouss appreciated the compliment was
demonstrated by his giving dinner on the
following evening to the men who had rec
ognized his having safely reached another
milestone in the pilgrimage of life and the
most successful in a business point OF view
of all the years. A correspondent OF the
Winchester Ne,cs, referring to these pleasant
events, says "Mr. Rouss is one of the most
liberal men ever knew. He is fond of the
good things of life, too, and his magnificent
home on Fifth Avenue is filled with works
of art and aesthetic surroundings"

Under the new rules, the Republicans in
the House broke a quorum the other day by
refusing to vote. Maj. Mckinley said in
the last Congress that he had never en-
gagged in filibustering without feeling heart

probably so much ashamed of the gerry
wandering Ohio Republicans that he has
no blushes to spare for his party in Con-
