Monte B. Gwinn, the Idaho manager
of the New York Life Insurance Co.,
with the assistance of Captain D. L.
Bailey, has been writing numbers of
policies here this week. One of these
policies is much better thing to- have
about the house than the money which
it costs. Young men with families in
DeLamar seem to realize this fact.
Fred Cove, one of the real nice young
men of the DeLamar of six years ago,
got back here on Monday. Since leay-
ing here, Fred has wandered over good
deal of country, finally settling down
for the past two and half years in
Oregon, where he met his fate, got
married and now returns here the
proud proprietor of fine boy and
wife. We hope he will catch on to a
good job and remain.
Mr.. Dave Shea, the new proprietor of
the Jordan Valley hotel, to get &C.
quainted with the public, or that small
portion of it which he has not met, will
give grand ball and supper Thanks
giving night. We are sure that if |
people could rely upon having good
roads on that date, a goodly portion of |
the Owyhee people would be laying
plans to be there as soon as they read |
the announcement.
One day this week DR.. Jones, the
dentist, got the front of his office

refined taste for colors than the doctor.
sneaked up there and finding an old
box filled with excelsior near by, took
handsful of it and wiped over the door
md front, to show his disapproval of
he color. The doctor appreciated the
lint, but would like to get his forceps
IN the fellows biggest molar, all the

AS an echo of the Jordan Valley
'obbery, Mrs. Mason came to DeLamar
md swore out a complaint against
ieorge W. Briggs, charging him with
