I have associated with myself
DR.. Waldrop as partner to assist
me in my work. He is a young
man Of exceptional attainments; he
has had several years experience in
the army as hospital steward and
altogether has devoted some six or
seven years in fitting himself for
the profession which, in my judg-
ment, is little enough time.

my friends and patrons and to as
sure them that I am now prepared
to give them a better medical SER
vice than ever before without in
creasing the cost to them. We two
medical men can not do twice the
volume of business which I did;
but I feel that by means of my help
I shall be able to realize the height
of my ambition, Ito furnish the
best medical service in the State for
town of this size. "
Thanking my friends again for
their zeal and sympathy in my be-

unjustly criticizing me,
I am professionally yours,

Payette VS.. Caldwell.

The game played at the bail park
Sunday was a we'll attended but
not very closely contested game.
The visiting team lacked somewhat
in preparation, being composed of
men unframed to the art of Jug
Cling with the hide covered sphere.
But they have some very good tim.
Der, and with more training and
greater practice, may make their
mark on the diamond.
The Caldwell boys did we'll, and
showed to great advantage.
However, the game was not of
nature to bring out the best that
was in the boys. The score was
"a to O, in favor of the home team.
The game at Nampa tomorrow
promises to be good one.

THEY CANVASS THE RETURNS
The Result Was the Same as Those
Given In These Columns Last
Week-Other Matters. .-

The city council met Monday
night and allowed the claims of
Central Lumber Co., in the sum of
$9.35 and W. I. Mcintosh for s.. .88,
the same was for building a side
walk before the Strahorn property
on sd street north.
A claim of Frank Hartkopf in
the sum of 81 for jurors fees in
the case of the city VS.. Jennie Car
rol was before the council and was
referred to the city attorney. The
city attorney gave it as his opinion
that there was no authority under
the law for the payment of Jurors
fees in criminal cases. But that in
many cases the board of county
commissioners have allowed such
fees.
The council then referred the
matter to the finance committee.
The Leonard estray claims were
broached but as the council had
disallowed the same at a previous
meeting, there was no disposition
to reopen the matter.
The returns were then canvassed,
and the clerk was instructed to
issue certificates of election to the
following oficers-elect: A. K.
Steunenberg, mayor; James KelIe-
her, treasurer; c. J. Shorb, clerk;
Ed Hedden, engineer; each for one
year; o. I. Bennett, police judge,
to fill unexpired term; T. w.

F. Isham, second ward, and Chas.
Davis, third ward, each for two
years.
Council then adjourned till Mon
day, April 20, at 8 o'clock.

Untitled to Great Praise.

When Caldwell was discussing
the matter of water works about
two years ago, Councilman Redway
broached the subject OF securing a
rebate from the railroad company
on freight rates, as an aid to the
water works proposition. He didn't
stop there. He went to the railroad
company, exl lained to it the great
advantages of water works sys-
tenn here as a protection to the
company's property, and so elo-
quently did he present the matter
that the company promised rebate
Of IS per cent on all freight for the
water works shipped over the COM
pany's roads.
Councilman Redway told the
council of his good luck, and per-
sistently and systematically looked
after the shipping bills, and, when
all the freight for the works arrived,
he took the matter up with the rail-
road company. AS result of Mr..
Redway's persevering energy, S227
freight rebates were turned into the
water works fund of the city treas
ury this month.
Mr.. Redway is one of the most ac-
tive and energetic men on the city
council. His painstaking care i'll the
auditing of the city's bills, and
looking after the city's interests
have saved to it many dollars.
Had business matters permitted,
and Mr.. Redway consented to make
the race, there is not the least doubt
in the world but that he would
have been mayor the coming year.
Mr.. Redway is entitled to great
praise.

and when the land is worked and
the big sugar factory throws open
its doors the valley will be one of
the richest ones along the Oregon
Short Line. Among other business
enterprises spoken of for the same
section are two ereameries and a
canuery, so the possibility is that
the valley will grow in importance
when the railroad gets into opera
tion.
The grading is going along faster
than at any other point where con-
struction is in progress, owing to
the route, which does not require

A Black Fiend Attempts an Assault
on a Montpelier Girl.
HIS PLANS WERE FRUSTRATED
A LynchiNs Was Narrowly Averted-
Prompt Action of Officers
Saved His Neck.

Last Monday night about II
O'Clock Montpelier was thrown into
fever of excitement by the report
that burly negro had assaulted a
young lady at the Hotel Burgoyne,
Investigation proved the report too
true. Only the prompt action of
the city police officers prevented the
lynching in true Southern fashion.
The facts as near as the Exami-
ner can learn them, are as follows:
Miss Hemmert, of St. Charles,
has been employed for sometime at
the Hotel Burgoyne, but for some
days prior to last Monday, has been
ailing somewhat with what was
feared to be case of appendicitis.
Ore day last week a big black
negro came into town and asked
John Downing for a job, claiming
he was cook. John gave him
employment for a few days, but
had discharged him the Saturday
previous to the above mentioned
date.
1t seems the coon had acquainted
himself with where the young
ladies at the hotel, including Miss
Hemmert, had their sleeping rooms.
On the Monday night referred to,
and just as the hotel folks were
coming from the show at the opera
house, Miss Hemmert being too ill
to leave her room, one of the ladies
in the party heard a scream from
Miss Hemmert's room. Rushing
in she turned on the electric light.
The sight that met her eyes almost
threw her into Mysteries. There
on the bed was the negro, with his
hands tightly clutched about the
throat of the girl, while she was
struggling for her life. The screams
of the second young lady brought
instant assistance, while the black
brute rushed from the building and
tried to make his escape. He was
quickly followed and arrested by
Chief of Police Gee, and Policeman
Heggie soon had him on the way
to Paris for safe keeping.
Miss Hemmert was prostrated as
a result of her battle with the
negro, and though he did not ac-
complish his purpose, he succeeded
in lacerating her throat and mouth
in his efforts to prevent her scream
ing for help.
All that saved the negro from
stretching hemp then and there was
the lateness of the hour which pre-
vented a great number from hearing
of the occurrence until the wretch
was safely in Jail at Paris.
1t was the worst outrage ever at
tempted in this city, and a good
long term in the State pen will be
his just dues though hanging seems
to be good for such as he.-Mont-
pelier Examiner.

Glazed Eyes.

Snakes may almost be said to have
glass eyes. inasmuch as their eyes new
er close. They are without lids. and
each is covered with n transparent
scale much resembling glass. When
the reptile casts its outer skin the eye
scales come of with the rest of the
transparent envelope out of which the
snake slips.
This CLASSY eye scale is so tough that
it effectually protects the true eye from
the twigs. sharp grass and other OBJ
structions which the snake encounters
in its travels. yet it is transparent
enough to allow the most perfect vi
sion. Thus If the snake has not a glass
eye it may, at any rate. be said to wear
eyeglasses.
A similarly protected or cased eye
which very nearly approaches glass
eye, or. at any rate. an eye in glass. is
to be found i'm fish. From the charac
ter of the element in which they live
and the subducd light that reaches
them fish have no need Of eyelids either
TO wash the eye or protect II from
glare. and therefore eyelids are absent
but some of them need the protection oi
the transparent. horny. convex cases
which defend their eyes without oh
structing the sight.
