Letter From Mrs. Barnhart.

| When Mr.. and Mrs. Barnhart wer'
leaving for the exposition we asked to b.
favored with letter or two, and have
received the following which we take
the liberty of sharing with our friends
because it seems to us to be too good to
"put under bushel."
PORTLAND, OREGON. .Ju July 21. 1906
EDITOR Republican,:
Words fail to express the delightful
time we are having during our stay in
Portland We have taken in the fair
very thoroughly, and of course happen
occasionally to visit the Trail where we
meet any one we may have lost during
the day. Last Monday night there was
a ball given at the Idaho Building in
honor of the Press girls, and all Idaho
ans. We were among the few and most
enjoyable time had as the hosteses at
the building know how to make onesfeel
at home. The grounds at night are mag
nificent in their showers of light and
beauty. Music, music everywhere. A
party of us went to the Cakes, last night
to Shoot the Chutes and Bump the
Bumps, but alas, our courage failed
when some of them assembled the throne
to Bump the Bumps. 1t was certainly
exhilerating as we sailed over the beau
tiful water and drank in the pure air.
The shores were lined with bathers 60
ing and coming. From appearances,
people in Portland never sleep. l can
assure you it was very hard for us to
close our eyes in peaceful sleep on Tues
day night. About 1890 we had just re-
tired and gotten into calm repose, when
almost under our window, the terrible
cry of "murder, MURDER" rang out on
the midnight air. 1t is useless for me to
say, my blood turned cold, and my heart
almost ceased to beat, but policeman
arrived instantly. We could hear the
conversation. The man was beaten
badly in the face and about $1,000 taken
from him. We had passed the same
spot about 20 minutes previous to this.
No doubt the robber was there at this
time, but of course he knew from our
appearance we were from Idaho, and
had nothing. | am sure | never want to
hear such cry again. We leave Mon
day at $50 a. m. for San Francisco.
w. A. Rogers is here with his race
horses. Mr.. Barnhart is out at the race
track. No more at present.
Mrs. w. E. BARNHART.

Barnum & Bailey.

After all the circus loving people OF
this vicinity are to have an opportunity
to see the Barnum & Bailey Greatest
Show on Earth this year. The big show
will exhibit in Idaho Falls and the date
has been definitely set for August 7th.
This will be good news to all who real
ly enjoy high-class arenic performance.
The Barnum & Baily circus has always
been in class by itself, and this IS un-
doubtedly true to greater extent than
ever this season. Those who have seen
the show in other cities, and especially
in New York, declare that it is beyond
comparison the greatest combined cir
Gus, menagerie and hippodrome that the
world has ever seen. This in itself is in
teresting, but what is of greater interest
is the fact that the performance given
"on the road" is exactly the same as that
presented at the famous Madison Square
Garden, New York. The marvellous
Auto Bolide, in which a beautiful and
daring young woman "loops the gap" in
an automobile, will be given for the ben
eft of the people in the locality, notwith-
standing the enormous cost of carrying
this greatest of all sensational features.
The startling feat of the Ancillotti
Brothers, who simultaneously loop and
leap the quadruple chasms, will be pre-
sented in all it's sensational detail. There
will be gorgeous spectacle, scores OF
great riders, company after company of
famous acrobats and gymnasts, the in
ternationally famous Imperial Viennese
Troupe of acrobats, the greatest troupe
of it's kind on earth, unlimited comedy
by thirty really funny clowns, and Sc
ries of hippodrome races of such an ex-
citing and thrilling character as to sug
gest the actual contest of Rome in the
days of Nero, a splendid menagerie and
a congress of freaks are especially at
tractive features. The Barnum & Bal
ley management announces that there
will be no street parade, but, prior to the
performance in the big tents, there will
be an exhibition on the show grounds of
a most unusual and sensational kind.
This will be entirely free to the public.

only burden. It may have been kept
because it preserved tender memories OF
some loved one buried by the road side.
The float prepared by the Gem Saloon
was fiat hay rack on which were some
stuffed foxes and coyotes, and several
Indians, still alive and willing to be
stuffed. The rack was overlaid with
sage brush, and another float followed
which was trimmed with asparagus and
various other green things. A lady look
ing at them said to her husband, "What
does the green stuff represent? l don't
understand it" He replied with lord
ly air, "Why that represents aristocra-
cy." And the good wife replied, 80, OF
course"
An amusing feature of the demonstra-
tions of the use OF electric power and
the telephone comes to light in the fact
that many people who are accustomed
to seeing them used in their buildings,
have asked us 1t we really nau pHohe
connections and an electric current for
power or was this just masquerade to
demonstrate what might be done. 1t is
no harder for the Blackfoot Light q
Water Company to deliver power out in
grove than in house, and those who
saw our men sweat and pant to run the
machinery short time by foot to save
interrupting the speakers with the hum
of the moter, must have noticed the high
speed and ease at which it worked when
the switch was turned on again and no
body touched the press except to give it
paper to print on. The telephone COM
pany can put phone on wagon Just
as easily as in house, provided the
wagon is stationary.

The "OId.Timers" Scarcely Get a
Look ln."
BLACKFOOT IN GOOD TRIM
Boys Show Better Team Work and
Limber up With the Willow. The
Championship Looks Good to Us.

1t was an impatient crowd of over 1000
people that sat in the large comfortable
grand-stand last Monday afternoon
awaiting the arrival of the st. Anthony
| formerly the Ogden league) team, who
failed to make connection and arrive on
time. The management wired for spe-
cial for the "St. Ogdeny" team and after
two hours wait, during which time
the basket ball girls played an exhibition
game, the bunch finally arrived, with
their war paint on, ready for the game.
After sufficient warming up, the
teams clashed, with st. Anthony at bat.
They started off in the first with one
run, the result Of two pretty hits, but
they were the only ones picked by them
off Of Steltz during the game; scarcely
did they connect with the leather after
the first two men up and when they did
the support was excellent, but one error
being made by Blackfoot, wild throw
from the usually sure Martin in center,
which let in the one lone run for Dad
Gimlin's men.
Blackfoot punched hits in the 4th,
sending three men around the path.
They were shut out in the 9Th and 9th,
the latter being played in a shower
which developed into down-pour in the
7th, causing the players to leave the
field. After the shower, even though the
grounds were unfit for decent ball, "Og
Anthony" insisted on playing and Black
foot went on the diamond and in a few
minutes sent three more men across the
rubber. This lead was too much for the
"old timers" the championship posers,'
and they, after the fashion of broken
down leaguers, began wrangle not per-
mited by the rules Of the game. The
Umpire gave them chance to reconsid-
er their action, which only evoked a
more profound disregard of rules and
the game was called.
"Og Sainthony" were at bat eight
times and Blackfoot seven, the score
was to | and it was up to the "old-
timers to do something SO they could
tell the bunch up the line who are put
ting up the "long green, show it hap
pened."
Jack Henry was behind the bat for
the first time since his shoulder was dis
located and put up better game than
ever, whipping the "pig-skin' across the
cutting men off at Wessler's
hole, End base, as cleverly as ever.
The result of this game should quell
lot of knockers up and down the line
who have done little roasting when
Blackfoot was crippled and out Of form.
The st. Anthony team is completely
of the Ogden league team and
we're conceded to be the best team in
,he S. r. V. League, SO, you see where
We are tat now.

NATURE Man BREAKS
UP HAPPY HOME

Los ANGELES, March 27.-The
naked doctrine Of Darling. the Ma
ture Man." has found a victim in the
person of a once happy wife and his
preaehings have broken up home
Darling is that seemingly demented in
eividual who wandered about the State
clad IN only sufficient raiment to keep
him out Of jail, subsisting on vegetables
only He went TO Hawaii and later TO
Tahiti, where he is now teaching the
natives his creed.
Today Judge York IN the Superior
Court granted a divorce to Ebert E
johnson, a wealthy cigar dealer of
North Pasadena, because Mrs. Johnson
thought there was more in the ina
ture' teachings Of Darling than in
what most wives consider their duty
to their home. Johnson stood her freak
notions so long as they We're confined

IRENE of dress. or lack of it, was reach

her abode IN one end of the house, de-
claring that any man who smoked a
cigar. or drank glass of beer was an
unhealthy animal and unfit to be as
ISOLATED with. She started TO organize
nature clubs but they We're not
much of a success and finally she will

Johnson waited nearly year and then

mitted in court that his allegations
were true and Johnson was granted his

INFANTS ABANDONED.
Two Gases Under Investigation by
Police Department.

Several interesting cases have attracted
the attention of the local police during
the past few days, but in none of them was
a crime committed that more serious
than the abandonment of an infant. Two
such cases are under investigation, as here
tofore published in The Star. In the first
case the infant left at the home of
Mrs Dye on "a street northwest, and in
the other the mother. who was willing
to surrender her offstring and have il die
Or be cared for by strangers, permitted the
little one to be left the doorstep at
the house of Mr.. Marceron on I'd street
southeast. The pathetic note left by the
mother of the first mentioned infant is in
the hands of the authorities and may as
sist in the identification of the person who
wrote it. AS stated in The Star at the
time the infant was abandoned, the writer
OF the note gave reasons for abandoning
the child and also suggested thai she might
be driven to end her life.
1t was because of this suggestion that an
effort was made TO connect her with the
case of the woman whose strange conduct
at the filtration plant Monday night was
told in yesterdays Star. There was moth
ing in the descriptions of the two women.
however, TO Indicate that the same one
figured in both cases and nothing has been
heard of either woman since she appear
ed AT the places mentioned. A woman
was given lodging at the house of de-
tention late Monday night. and 1t was
thought that she might have been the one
who told of having attempted suicide in the
reservoir, but her description did not tally
with that given by Irving Hall of the wo-
man he found trampng through the mud
near the water. The lodger, 1t is stated,
was a domestic who had recently left her
place of employment in the country and
who was In search of employment She
wore no jewelry and had no valuable prop
erty about her when the police accommo-
dated her. No woman has committed sui
eide here this week, nor has any been re-
ported missing
In the case of the baby found on the
steps at the house of Mr. Marceron there
was no note to give any reason for the
infant being abandoned. Neither was there
anything in the basket which would assist
the police In their efforts to find the moth
err In this case il possible for the
child TO die from exposure or neglect The
basket was left on the steps leading to
the basement and 1t was only an accident
that il was found.
