Latest Estimate of Losses.
Toxic, March 22.-The Japanese
Tarred Paper Factory.

The Boise Gas Light company is
making preparations to put in a plant
for the manufacture of tarred paper
which they expect to have in oper-
alton within the next two months,
The amount of tarred paper which is
used in Boise alone runs into the
thousands of dollars every year. Be
sides this the towns dependent on
Boise for their supplies consume a
vast amount of such material for
building purposes. That It Is to be
manufactured in Boise is source OF
qualification as It marks the begin
ming of a new era in the manufactur-
ing business here. The building
which the company will erect will be
3Ox60 feet and constructed OF CORFU
gated iron. It will be located on the
site of the gas plant. One machine
will be used for the present, which
will require 4e-horse power boiler
and a 10-horse power engine. The
paper will be shipped direct from the
manufactures and after going
through the process of tarring will
be placed on the market.-Boise Cap

Wooness Sheep.

Some woolless sheep have been
newly brought to this country, says
the Post. They are fawn-colored,
somewhat resembling Jersey cattle in
hue, and quite small, not exceeding
100 pounds in weight Some sheep
weigh over 400 pounds.
These animals are Of very pc
culiar breed, which Is known nowhere
except in Barbados. II was from
these islands that the specimens i'm
ported by the government were OBJ
tanned. The general belief is that the
variety was originally brought to Bar
BADGES from Africa, but nobody
knows with certainty. Though lack
ing wool, they have very superior
meat, II is said.
The imported specimens have been
placed on the Arlington farm con-
Quoted by the department OF agri-
culture across the Potomac from the
city OF Washington. An effort will
be made to find out what the sheep
are good for and whether their meat
Is sufficiently superior to ordinary
mutton to make II worth while to
introduce the stock for breeding in
the United States.

The Blue Mountain Creamery, az
the Pendleton creamery will be CALI
ed, will be started on April /.
The SOO-pound capacity churn u
being placed in position today, and
the other machinery will be placed
as fast as 1t arrives. H. c. Asher.
an expert butter maker, has been en-
ployed and will be in charge of the
creamery, while o. E. Harper, pro-
prietor, will attend to the business
affairs of the institution.
At first, those milking for the
their cream owing TO the fact that
the patrons will be so widely scatter
ed that it would be impossible for a
creamery wagon to cover all the
ground in gathering the cream from
the farms. After the business y
started and the patrons become more
numerous. it is quite probable that q
wagon will be started over the routes
to gather in the cream.
The highest market price will be
paid for cream, this depending alto
gether on the price of butter in the
market. The creamery company viii
handle cream cans and separators
for the accommodation of patrons
AS to the time of delivering cream,
the management says this will depend
on the kind Of place provided on the
farm for keeping the cream. II a
cool cellar or milk house is provided,
delivery of cream twice a week will
be sufficient. But If no suitable
place can be provided at home for
keeping the cream, It must be de-
livered oftener than this perhaps
once a day.
For sweet cream delivered after
each milking, a special price win be
paid. The cream that is delivered
but twice a week can be used only
for butter making purposes, while the
fresh cream will be used to supply the
ice cream and sweet cream trade Of
the city.
The ice cream machinery will not
arrive until April 1st, and after that
time a large supply of ice cream win
be kept on hand.
Mr.. Harper and Mr. Asher will be
in the city constantly from this time
on and will be glad TO meet those con-
templating milking for the creamery.
They will be found at the creamery
building at the rear OF the cold stor-
age plant

PREPARING FOR
THE TAX BATTLE
ATTORNEYS WORKING
UPON COUNTY's BRIEF.
The o. r. s. Ms Appeal From the
Circuit Court VIII Be Tried in the
State Supreme Court at This Place
During the Coming May Session
Railroad Brief Assigns Thirty-nine
Alleged Errors Upon Which II
Bases Appeal From Strains As
SeSSment-

District Attorney Phelps and Judge
James A. Fee are now engaged upon
the brief for the county's side of the
o. r. & N. tax suit, which has been
appealed by the railroad to the su-
preme court, and will be tried here
when the court convenes on May 8.
The brief for the railroads side of
the case has been received, and is a
very exhaustive affair. In it SO diff
ferent assignments of error are made.
They are all upon technical grounds.
and are to the effect that the law was
not complied with by the assessor
and county court as to the manner
and form in which the assessment
was made. The principal point is
that the property of the company
was not properly described.
The amount of the railroad COM
pany's taxes, according to the as
sessment that was made, would be
$4,000. A petition was made by the
their property in this county be re-
duced from $4,000 per mile to $500.
or a trifle less than one-half.
Should the decision of the supreme
court sustain that OF Judge Ellis, the
matter may be carried into the United
States courts by the railroad, and
thus the litigation continued indefi-
niely. Or they may bring a suit in
equity for the purpose of securing a
reduction of the assessment.

RAY TO REFORM SCHOOL.
,r rsmith, Moss and Brown Cases
Present Enlgmas.

Present Enlgmas.
Information was filed against Al;
bert Murray today by District Attor-
ney Phelps, and he was recommend
ed as a fit subject for the reform
school. Young Murray is but IA
years of age. and it is this fact alone
that has saved him from a severe sem
tence. He was arrested for burglary
and could have been sent to the PEN
itentiary had he not been so young.
According. to the district attorney
there is no way by which Hockin-
smith and Moss may be punished for
their Jail break, as there is no law on
the statute books forbidding prison
ers to do such. Consequently, Moss
will simply be required to serve his
three years sentence. The effect of
the escape on Hockinsmith's sentence
remains to be seen. What to do with
this offender is somewhat Of a puz-
zle to the officers. Having pleaded
guilty he may be sentenced any time,
! but as he is wanted as a witness by
| District Attorney Phelps when the
Raineys are tried, that official does
not wish to have him sent to Salem,
and then returned here to testify,
/ doubtless considering him as a better
witness without any convict stripes.
When Maynard Brown escaped no
/ information had been filed against
him. However, the district attorney
! had decided not to send him to the
! penitentiary in view of his youth
fulness and light offense. What eff
