CONFESSES MURDER.
Husband Accused Her Of Being
Unfaithful and Threatened to
Leaue Her Nothing.

Ada, I. T.-Suffering from remorse
and the fact that bloodhounds were
about to be placed upon the trail OF
her paramour for the murder of her
husband and the father of her two
little children, Mrs. Mayfair of Allen,
made the following statement to the
officers this morning:
do you think that | would be
cleared Of the crime If / should turn
states evidence" said Mrs. Mayfair
to an officer Saturday morning, and
when told that every effort would be
made to apprehend the murderer, and
when assured that a clean breast of
the affair would be best for her, she
continued:
"Some days ago Mayfair and had
a quarrel In which he accused me OF
being unfaithful to him, and claimed
that / lavished too much attention on
one Lon Gilmore. At that time he
had in his pocket $4,000 in cash, and
had a $4,000 life insurance policy
made in my favor, but stated that
would never get a cent Of his money.
On Tuesday, election day, / went to
the store and got revolver out of
III oldWtI. nat HlSuI lieI bliilOiS
and we plar ed the killing. Gilmore
shot Mr.. May nair as he lay in bed
and we then crossed his hands and
pulled the cover up to his chin.
then took the revolver and buried 1t
in the smoke house about four inches
deep and set churn over the fresh
dirt. The marks on my face | made
myself with stick of wood. l then
aroused the neighbors, and you know
the rest"
Mrs. Mayfair is frail, rather
sickly looking woman, weighing per-
haps lis pounds. She has a melan-
choly disposition and was not thought
capable of assisting in such crime.
She told her story without shedding
tear and felt relieved when the tale
was told.
Mrs. Mayfair was the second wife
of the deceased, having been employ
ed as a domestic in the family. Some
ten years ago Mayfair and his wife
parted.

PASSING OF PoRRIDGE
Makes Way for the Better Food Of Q
Better Day.

"Porridge Is no longer used for
breakfast in my home" writes a loyal
Britain from Huntsville, Ont. This
was an admission of no small signifi-
canoe to one brought up" on the time
honored standby.
"One month ago." she continues, Il
bought package of Grape-Nuts food
for my husband, who had been an in
valid for over a year. He had passed
through severe attack Of pneumonia
and Ia grippe combined, and was left
In a very bad condition when they
passed away.
II tried everything for his benefit,
but nothing seemed to do him any
good. Month followed month and he
still remained as weak as ever. was
almost discouraged about him when I
got the Grape-Nuts, but the result
has compensated me for my anxiety.
I'm the one month that he has eat
en- Grape-Nuts he has gained 10
pounds in weight, his strength Is rap
idly returning to him, and he feels
like a new man. Now we all eat
Grape-Nuts food, and are the better
for it. Our little year old boy, who
used to suffer from pains in the stom-
ach after eating the old-fashioned por-
ridge, has no more trouble since he
began to use Grape.Nuts, and l have
no more Doctors bills to pay for him.
"We use Grape-Nuts with only sweet
cream, and find 1t the most tasty dish
In our bill of fare.
Last Monday I ate teaspoonfuls
OF Grape-Nuts and cream for break
fast. nothing else. then set to work
and got my mornings work done by 9
o'clock, and felt less tired, much
stronger, than if / had made my break
fast on meat, potatoes, ETC., as used
to. / wouldn't be without Grape-Nuts

Anadarko, OKLA. M. Acton Of
Anadarko has heralded what he
claims to be a marvellous invention
in the way of securing a flow OF

SAILING 90 MILES AN HOUR
Wonderful Speed Made by Land
Ships With Safety

Sailing on land is a new diversion,
experim ented with at different times
in the past, that has suddenly burst
into prominence. No other summer
amusement conveyance OF mans in
vention can make anything like the
speed of the land sailing vessel. IL
skins over the ground with the actual
speed OF the wind. Its only rival in
amusement conveyances OF winter or
summer is the ice boat; but the land
sailing vessel furnishes much greater
enjoyment than the ice boat, for its
path is not Limited by the narrow con-
fines of an ice pond, and, moreover, 1t
is a summer vehicle, made to sail in
the season when rapid open air travel
ing is really enjoyable. SO fast Will
the land boat move il permitted to go
at its full speed during a strong wind
that it's occupants would find it i'm
possible to retain their seats. Hence
its speed has to be checked and regu-
lated by the manipulation OF brakes
and sails. From fifty to ninety miles
an hour, however, has often been at
tanned with safety when the precau-
ton was taken OF seeing that the pas
sengers were well secured in their
seats.-Technical World.

To Test Sugar Beets.

The Utah Sugar Co. sent quite
large quantity of sugar beet seed
here last week. Under the direction
of Pres. Bulge and Bishop Clark
the seed was distributed to ranchers
in different parts of the county,
who will plant and cultivate the
beets this season SO that test may
be made to determine the adaptable
ity of our soil for growing sugar
beets. This fall the beets will be
gathered and shipped to the Black
foot or Idaho Falls factory, and If
the test proves satisfactory, an ef-
fort will be made TO induce our
farmers to turn their attention very
largely to the raising of sugar beets.
We have no doubt but what Bear
Lake county soil will produce as
good beets as that of Bingham or
Fremont county. The only doubt as
to the successful growing of beets
here is the altitude, which may
make the seasons too short for beet
growing.

heW acl gives tHc PIooaoo JuuSo
authority to send offenders to the
reform school at St. Anthony.
There are acts amending the elec
tlon laws in several particulars.
One of these provides for separate
ballots for constitutional amend
ments and other questions. Another
provides for registration in city
elections. Still another increases
from 400 to 600 the maximum vot-
ing population Of a precinct.
There are few laws effective
relative to the schools. One pro-
vldes that children may attend the
schools nearest their homes ire
spective of the district lines. Others
authorize salaries to clerks of inde-
pendent districts sand require the
issuance of interest-bearlng warrants
to teachers.
The majority of the irrigation en-
actments also went into effect yester-
day. The more important OF these,
known as senate bill No. SO, is
called the general irrigation law.
It's most important provision re-
quires the commencement Of work
on canals, reservoirs, etc., within
SIX months from the time the water
permit issues, also making provision
for bonds. The United States is
granted rights of way over state
lands for irrigation works, appeal is
provided to the district court, for
hearing de novo, from the action of
county commissioners in fixing rates
and the time for applying water to
beneficial use Is extended from two
to five years.
One new law places additional re-
strictions on the admission of appli-
cants to the soldiers home. 1t re-
qulres two years residence in the
state and that the applicant must
have voted at one general election
at least. Another act admits veter-
ans of the Spanish-American and
Philippine wars to the soldiers
home.

LOTS OF NEW LAWS.
Synopsis Of Measures Passed by
Last Legislature, That Went
Into Effect Yesterday.

Yesterday the people of Idaho
were confronted with 40 new laws
acts of the Eighth session which did
not bear emergency clauses and
which became operative 60 days
after the adjournment of the leglsla-
ture. These enactments cover wide
range of subjects. Those that will
attract special attention are known
as the purity measures and include
the anti-polygamy, the adultery and
the Sunday closing laws. The latter
was SO emasculated by the the legis-
lature that it's original intention was
destroyed. It's provisions do not
apply to incorporated cities, towns
or villages nor to boats or trains
carrying passengers. They apply
only to precincts outside incorporat
ed towns and villages, and even
there saloons, dance houses, theatres,
race tracks, etc., may be operated
Sundays providing majority of the
qualified voters, as shown by the
last previous vote on governor, Pc
tition the county commissioners to-
permit it. The commissioners have
no alternative.
The antl-polygamy law provides a
penalty of not less than 5000 fire
and SIX months in Jail or not to ex-
ceed $4,000 fine and not more than
five years IN the penitentiary. The
following is the full text of the
adultery act, which became opera
tive yesterday:
GA married man who has sexual
intercourse with married woman
not his wife, an unmarried man who
has sexual intercourse with married
woman, married woman who has
sexual intercourse with a man not
her husband and an unmarried
woman who has sexual intercourse
with married man shall be guilty
of adultery and shall be punished by
a fine of not less than 800 or by
imprisonment IN the county Jail Of
not less than three months or by
imprisonment IN the county Jail fol
period not exceeding one year o.
by fine not exceeding $1,000"
There were two laws effectiy,
yesterday for the punishment ant
care of juvenile offenders. One o.
these is known as the juvenile cour
act. 1t constitutes the probat
judges as presiding officers owe
juvenile courts and also makes pro
vision for officers to look atte
probationers and others when neces
sary. The law is framed after th
Chicago juvenile court law and tha
IN operation in Denver, both o
which have in their enforcement
