Big Deed Recorded.

Last Thursday trust deed was re
corded in the auditors Office here which
was of such proportions that it cost
$3.50 to have it put on record, 1t was
given by the American Falls Canal and
Power company of Blackfoot, Idaho
and the Utah Mortgage Loan Corpora
tion of Logan, Utah, to the Peoples
Bank and Trust company of Rockford
Illinois
The substance of the big deed is that
the American Falls Canal and Power
company are floating S3OO,OOOOO worth
offs 5-lO year bonds drawing six per cent,
that the Utah Mortgage Loan Corpo-
ration is the agent or broker and the
Peoples Bank and Trust company is the
trustee in whose care the records will be
left while the investors money is being
taken, used and returned to him with
it's accrued interest.
The Republican has kept it's readers
informed of the operations of this com
pany in empire building aross the river
and will keep them informed as to how
this S}0O,OOO,0O is expended. Bingham
county is fortunate in having such sums
used within it's boundaries and Black
foot merchants and other business men
are fortunate to have the company make
this the seat of their operations.

Newspaper Man Wrote 1t.

Newspaper men occasionally do clever
things, as is we'll evidenced in the pro
duction of the famous drama, "Midnigh,
In Chinatown" which comes to Houck's
Opera House, Monday night, November
18th, for one performance.
Charles Edmunds was police court
reporter respectively on the EXAMINER
Call, and "Chronicle," in San Francis
co for years, and there was little doing
to which he was not wise"
Midnight in Chinatown" is meri-
torious and highly sensational story of
life in the Golden Gate City, but it
teaches a moral which is said to serve
better than a sermon. 1t also appeals to
every class of society, so strong is its hui
man interest.

TO Lose a Good Firm.

We regret to learn that Norman
Jacobs, the popular Blackfoot Clothier,
has decided to close out his stock and
discontinue business here. Mr.. Jacobs

Rumor Dispr0ved.

latter part of last week, to the effect
that wholesale slaughter of japanese
boys haI been performed near here

NOR stated that Jap boy had slashed
a horse ridden by rancher, and a
killing followed.

Timely Advice.

Fruit growers should not overlook the
fact that good deal of effective work
against the codling moth can be done in
the fall and winter, by cleaning up the
rubbish and It's hiding places, and de,
stroying the cocoons. Its good plan
to dig up or wet the soil around the trees
in order to expose and destroy the re-
treats of this and other pests. Gem

A Modern Brick, Well Ventilated
and Lighted.
THE ADDITION WAS NEEDED
One Hundred and Sixty zone Pupils
Enroll First Day. Building Amply
Heated. Cloak Room Banished.

The Irving School Building just being
completed for the people on the west
side of the railroad track in Blackfoot is
two-story eight room structure with
basement 1t stands on an eminencs
which makes it a conspicuous figure,
and new sidewalks are being built out
to it.
The building is made of brick and il
heated with steam. 1t is finished in
yellow pine.
On the first floor are four rooms and a
hall. There are two entrances with
double doors Near each entrance is
radiator, and near the center of the hall
is lavatory supplied with water from
the new city water system. Extending
across the middle of the building at tho
right angles with the main hall is an
other hall which serves for cloak rooms.
Through the center of each section of
these counter halls is partition with
hooks to hang wraps on. Pupils filing
into their respective departments hang
their wraps in passing and there is no
crossing of each others course with its
attendant confusion, such as is found i'm
the less modern building. Another pleas
ing feature of this hall is that it is we'll
lighted and bright. A door at the end
OF the hall opens into the school room.
Each room has door opening also from
fhe main hall. Each room has three ra-
diators and arregisters or ventilators.
Two of them are near the floor and two
are near the ceiling, feature which
will be appreciated by all lovers of good
ventilation. There is q transom over
the front door and one over each of the
six large windows. A very pleasing
feature of these transoms is that they
are made so they can be used without
having to get a set of tools and step
ladder.
The old question of whether to have
the light fall over the pupils shoulders
or at right angles with the line of vision,
was settled by having it in profusion
from both ways
Another modorn feature is the black
boards. All the space not taken up by
doors and windows is blackboard, al
though the artisans were busy giving it
a dark green tint. 1t would hardly bs
correct to call it "greenboard' either,
for it is made of cement and stating, put
on with trowel and paintbrush Modern
devices have made the original black
board thing of yesterday, but the cray
on will run smoothly on the new and
improved tinted wall.
The second story is like the first ex-
cept that there is a small lighted room
at each ond Of the main hall directly
over the main entrances to the build
ing.
The grounds have not been graded
yet, nor cannot be until the litter is re-
moved which always attends construc-
tion work. Last Saturday the workmen
were putting on the finishing touches
and installing the furniture.
Last Monday morning witnessed the
opening of the elegant new school build
ing, with the Misses Smith, Doud, Scott
and Beach in the instructors chairs.
One hundred and sixty one pupils were
enrolled in all. Forty-four in the pri-
mary, 80 in the lst, 20 in the. End and
3rd grades and 40 in the other room.

A Generous Offer.

When Miss Helen Keller was at the
exposition in st. Louis in 1904 she WIS.,
tied the japanese tea house and for a
few minutes shook hands with some OF
the mattresses, little olive colored wo-
men who spoke almost no English, but
expressed their interest and intellt-
gence without words.
Many weeks after Miss Keller had
returned to Boston she heard from an
official of the exposition that one OF
the Japanese mattresses had gone to
a st. Louis physician and asked to
have one Of Der eyes taken out and CIV
en- to Miss Keller. When she was told
that such a gift was impossible she
wept in bitter disappointment.

ARROW CANYON.
Odd Way In Which It's Walls Were
Decorated by Indians.

Odd Way In Which Its Walls Were
Decorated by Indians.
Thousands of arrows shot by bands
of Indians for possibly centuries pro-
trude from assure several hundred
feet long in the rocky walls of Arrow
canyon, about twenty miles from the
crossing of the Salt Lake railroad over
the Moapoa river, says the Los Angeles
Times.
AT point where the perpendicular
wall of the canyon juts out about 200
feet above the canyon bed a thin,
snakelike assure runs in the rock. Sue
cessive generations Of Indians have
gone to the place at regular int walls
and shot their gayly befeathered ar
rows upward, forming a fringed scarf
unique in it's oddly. The arrows are
so thick that little room is left for
more, and owing to the position Of the
assure at height of 200 feet and I'M
der the shelving wall the relics, pro-
tected from the weather, have stuck
where they were driven in uncounted
years ago. ...-......,
Already relic hunters are visiting the
place and despoiling it Of its treasures
by shooting the arrows out with revolv-
ers and rifles. In the sands Of the bed
Of the canyon many arrowheads Of
various sizes and shapes are found
buried. 1t is believed that the Indians
visited this spot In connection with
some rite. Crude, strange figures have
been cut by them in the face of the rock
