A Peculiar Case.

Justice Overall's court was en-
gagged yesterday and far into last
hight in the trial of a case of rather
a sensational nature. j. w. Warren
was the defendant in the case and
was charged with enticing a minor.
1t appears that the parties concerned
used to live at or about Frost. Some
time ago, the defendant and the
parents of Bessie Hawkins, who is
said to be now about Ia years old,
arranged for Bessie TO spend some
time at the home of Warren and
wife. 1t appears that Bessie and
the Warrens liked each other and
that she preferred to stay with them.
The parents wanted her with them
and proceeded to charge the defend
ant with unlawfully enticing her
away. The case was tried before
a jury and the defendant was lined
So and costs, amounting to some-
thing over $50. Assistant County
Attorney Pippin conducted thepros-
ecution and w. II. Brown, Esq,
was attorney for defendant. Ennis

The silver messenger. (Challis, Idaho) 1890-1912, 1902-01-07

The European dog census has been
completed and shows Frnace, with
1854, 900 dogs, holding the European
record. Not only are there more dogs
in France than in any other country In
Europe, but there are more per thou
sand inhabitants than in any other Eu-
ropean country. France has seventy
five dogs to every thousand of its in
habitants. Then follow Ireland with
seventy-three, England with thirty
eight, Germany with th~irty-one, and
Sweden with eleven. There are 2,200.S
900 dogs in Germany, 1900, 900 in Rus
STA and $4,000 in Turkey, though tour
lists who have resided in Constantine
pie aver that this number falls short
of the actual total, which they think to
be larger in Turkey than elsewhere.

IT is THE DREAM
OF A NEW YORK


tire enterprise, and it's success is owing
to his generosity.
However this may be, it is certain
that the purpose of the New York mil
lionaire is to continue the work of in
teresting the people of Richfeld in Sc
curing musical educations and to make
it possible for them to become pro-
icient in the charming art. He hopes
to make the place an object lesson for
other communities and it is reasonable
to believe hat he holds the opinion
that other wealthy people will emu
late his example.
The Benencent Eject of Such Work
would certainly be inestimable. Music
is always refining and elevating. A
mar or a woman who can play an in
strument well is sure of social recog-
milton wherever he or she may be. A
musical education aids one in enter
tanning and in making the home life
pleasant. Many shadows would be dis
PEELED from the households of the
country if the father, or mother, or
both of them could play some musical
instrument. Dizziness, aw~kwardness,
coarseness and ignorance will speed
from the charms OF music like the
brooding spirit of darkness from the
breaking sunlight. Music softens the
passions and improves the intellect.
1t inspires courage and makes human
ity better and nobler in every way. 1t
hui n os 1triot IN tho ,.ocf1oeg Tow - A.
sorrowing, comfort to the lonely and
energy to the slothful. 1t is the in
spiration of youth and the solace of
age. 1t is one of the golden keys which
often unlocks the door of the citadel
of success. 1t was Schwab's musical
ability, as well as his mechanical abil-
ity, which first attracted the attention
of Carnegie.
The plan successfully started by the
modest millionaire at Richfield Springs
should be inaugurated in every COM
munity in this country. The wealthy
could not spend their extra dollars in
a better ause. The people would take
kindly to the scheme. In a few years
we would be a nation of musicians and
there would be far less of rudeness,
misery and d%epravity. Musical asso-
Citations should be formed in. every
place on the lines of the one now or
ganized in Richfield. Competent in
structors should be secured and mem
bers of both sexes included in the
membership. Politeness, and refine
ment in speech and action will follow
as the associations continue.
Mr.. Tailer's idea is new, so far as
it's manner of execution is concerned,
but it is so plausible and reasonable
that every one is forced to commend it.
May it succeed beyond the fondest ex-
pectations of it's promoter.
The silver messenger. (Challis, Idaho) 1890-1912, 1902-01-07
Music for
Reform

A movement has been started at
Richfield Springs, N. Y, which may
and certainly ought to become ma
tional and even world wide. 1t in
wolves the great question of how to
spend money so hat it will do the
greatest good to the greatest number.
The originator of this movement is
Robert w. Taller, a New York million
aire, who, with his talented family,
has spent the summers of several years
past at the famous watering resort. Mr..
Taller makes no pretense of being a
philanthropist and shrinks from any
publicity in connection with his many
generous acts. The people of the
pretty central New York village, how
ever, af%fectionately style him
The Father of RichneId Springs.
For a number of seasons he and his
accomplished wife led in movements
which would tend to aid the younger
residents of the village and much good
resulted. Associations were main
tanned in which young men were
taught in the different branches of ed
ucation and instructed in different
trades. Some of these are now skilled
mechanics and others hold responsible
positions in the business world.
The scope of this influence upon the
people generally was not broad enough
to satisfy Mr.. and Mrs. Taller, and they
determined to inaugurate something
that would reach farther. Mrs. Taller

tendency of a musical education. Here
was the opportunity for which they
had been looking. They would make it
possible for every man and woman,
boy and girl in Richfeld Springs to be-

will be mainly financed by Swiss and
German houses. In all probability the
engines will be brought from the Unit
edstates of America; but the construc-
ton of the line will be left in the
hands of Swiss and italian engineers.
