Office. The states strong box contains
in cash and securities nearly three quar-
ters Of a million dollars by the balance
just struck by the outgoing deputy treas
urer and the books cash and securities
will be turned over to H. ". Coffin. the
incoming state treasurer, next Monday.
Commenting on the transfer the Boise

state treasurer's Office over to his sue
cessor The books have been balanced
aud everything now is ready for the
transfer, which is to be made Monday.

eum Of f65 900 for the faithful perform
ance Of his duties. The bond was fur
nished by the United States Fidelity &
Casualty company Of Maryland and was
approved by Governor Hunt.
"The sum of money to be turned over
to the new treasurer will reach nearly
three quarters Of million dollars. There
will be $I7s.ooo in investment warrants.
with nearly $500, 900 in cash. This large
cash fund Is the result of timber sales
chiefly, but does not include any part Of

amounts to about $ISo,ooo.

Judge Peasley Had Three Boys to
 Deal With in Court To-day.
 Judge Peasley, in the city court to- day, had to deal with a very bad small boy named Joseph Subers, aged 10 years. This was the boys second time in court. While he never fails to at tend school or submit to his mother s influence while she is present, the mo ment she leaves him or he leaves her, he is beyond all restraint For the past week he has been living fh the cellar of the house occupied by his mother and two sisters, apparently Wtth- out their knowledge. and yet he was at school every day. He was commit ted to the state school.
 Guy Benson is only 19 years old, and last night he got drunk. He said he got drink of whiskey from a friend in the City hall and that is all he re membered. He was fined $5 and costs and put on probation.
 Thomas Mccarthy, 21, was charged with intoxication and vagrancy, Off, cer O'Hearn said he was one of a gang that has been annoying people on South Main street. He pleaded hard for "a chance,' but his record was against him and he was given thirty days in jail and fine of $5 and costs.

THE ELKS FAIR.
Pearl, the Fat Girl, Received About

Pearl, the Fat Girl, Received About
 1,20O Children Yesterday.
 One of the largest crowds that ever gathered in the City hall attended the Elks' bazaar last night. Every seat in the gallery was taken and many were standing up, while in the auditorium of the hall there was hardly sufficient room to move about. The Vaidis sis ters were the main attraction. They continue to electrify and startle the crowds with their wonderful and dar- ing feats. Such a splendid act of that kind is seldom seen in this city. Pearl, the fat girl and Rosco, the mystic mar vel, also attracted large crowds. The various booths did an enormous busi- ness last night and those persons in charge were kept very busy.
 Dancing was enjoyed until midnight Fulton's full orchestra furnished mu- sic. It would be better if the inter mission between the dances was not quite so long.
 One of the leading features of the bazaar was the reception which Pearl, the fat girl, accorded to the school children yesterday afternoon between 4 and o'clock. At o'clock the steps to the City hall, the sidewalk and street were crowded with children As soon as the doors were opened there was a mad rush for the hall. Hundreds and hundreds went in yet still they came. Finally 1t was deemed best for the safety of all to close the doors and allow no more children to enter. Many children were disappointed. About 1,2O0 children attended the reception and saw Pearl. The fair committee treated them to bag of popcorn. Tn order to afford the children who were disappointed yesterday an opportunity to see the bazaar and Pearl, special matinee will be held on Saturday af- ternoon. A small admission fee will be charged. The Vaidis sisters will ap- pearNin their areial act

Bos, ton for several hours. the heat of the fire melting about 200 wires.
 Tha fire originated in the drying room. where the wool is prepared for manufacturing purposes. A carbon izer, which had recently been installed, became overheated and the loose ma- terial scattered on the floor about the machine took fire and quickly cornmun- icated to other parts of the building. Firemen were soon on the scene. but could not prevent the spread of the flames to the dyehouse and two store houses These buildings were gutted.
 Clyde Denars, an employe, who climbed to the roof of the drying house and attempted to play hose upon the burning building. was forced to jump to the ground. He sustained a compound fracture of the leg.
 Superintendent Brewster said last night that unless temporary arrange rnents could be made the force of 400 men employees would be thrown out of work until the buildings could be re placed.

Senator Said to Have Received ST.
 900 For Repeal of a BilI.
 JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Nov. 5.-In the trial of Senator Farris, charged with bribery, former lieutenant Gov ernor John A. Lee took the stand. He said he asked Farris to help defeat the bill to repeal the law prohibiting the use of alum in baking powder. Farris, witness testified, said 1t could be easily done by holding the bill in committee, but that the bill was an important one to the Royal Baking Powder company and that the boys of the committee needed money. He wanted $7,OO0, of which $1 GOO was to go to each of six members of the committee on criminal Jurisprudence of the senate and $1, ,000 to the senator who introduced the bill.
 Lee arranged by telephone and tele- graph, he said, with Daniel J., Kelley to get the money. Afcheck for $8,500 was received by Lee and deposited in the American Exchange bank of St. Louis.
