"a Royal Slave"

"A Royal Slave" Is one Of the most
elaborate and beautiful melodramatic
productions on the road. The scenery
Is the finest that the studios can fur
nish and Is painted from photographs
made in Mexico. The costumes and
sage accessories are very rich and
powerful and thrilling dramatic stu.
ations, make the play series of beau
tifui stage pictures. Though 1t is u
melodrama of the sensational sort,
there is not shot fired during the en-
tire play, and 1t is possessed of real
literary and dramatic merit of high
order.
This great production presents more
than half years work by an able
corps OF scenic artists and skilled me.
chanics. and will give our people n
chance TO see, not only the beautiful
scenic equipment, but decidedly the
most original play on the stage of this
country.
1t is something to be able to say
that at least we can herald new play,
full of new ideas, situations and start
ling effects. Suclr is true, however,
OF the forthcoming production of "a
Royal Slave,' which is put on in a
Iaost artistic manner. complete in ev-
cry detail. Mr.. Harry Gordon has al
ways brought us the finest attractions
and he assures us this is his best. The
play will shortly be seen at the Grand
Opera House Saturday, matinee and

new BRANDING Law.
Became Effective Throughout
Idaho, on Oct. Ist.

October the new brand law passed
by the last legislature, went into ef-
feet, requiring all stock brands to be
filed witE the state auditor. The
delay ia putting this section OF the
law into effect, vas to enable the
county recorders TO supply certified
copies OF all brands aud To notify
stock owners Of the proposed change.
This has been complied with and
more than a thousand different
brands have been received by the
state auditor This number is being
Increased by each days mail. All
filings with the county recorders after
October are considered void, so
that the state auditors Office is now
The only place where the proper filing
can be made. The state auditor,
however, has condition to meet
which will require the action OF the
state board to settle. The law re-
ouires that the auditor shall deliver
to each county every quarter loose
sheet containing record OF all
brands filed for the entire state.
| These loose leaves are to be bound
into a permanent record in each
county, and are supposed to meet the
demand for information asked for at
each county seat.
The legislature made no appropria'
tion to provide the sheets and books,
The copies for each county will re-

ON BURLEY TOWNSHIP.
Arrowhsads FoHnd, II Very
Ancient Origin.

eee~~e~--~ - '-9--~'s
While engaged in surveying the
Burley townsitc last April, G. II,
Null picked up large number Of
arrow heads and spear points
which he found on the surface OF
the ground on almost every Block
/ in the townsite. For the most
part the arrow heads are fashioned
of obsidian while the spear points
are wrought from flint. Either
substance is SO hard that it can
not be worked with any imple-
ment known to the present gener-
alton and how the Indians man
aged to chip the brittle obsidian
and flint into the desired form is d
mystery.
The arrow heads are Of different
designs. Some are long, thick
and slender, wit. one barb, while
others are thin and oval shaped.
A few of the heads are less thar
half an inch in length, yet perfect
iy formed, They appear to have
been made fer children. 1t is i'm
possible to determine whether the
barbs have ever been used.
The spear points are rough and
strong, yet SO delicatcly has the
flint been chipped away that the
contours of the heads are MARVEL
ously artistic
Although arrow heads and spear
points may be found along the
! banks of almost any stream III
Cass,a county, the Oldest Indian is
unable to tell when they were
made or by whom they were used
in this section of the state. 1t is
certain that no arrow heads of the
kind found by Mr.. Null were used
! during the past century. AS far
back as the records Of Indian bat
ties run the arrows used we're tip
ped with steel or iron.
I Many believe that the tribes
which used the obsidian arrow
heads inhabited this part of the
country before the great lava flow.
There are evidences of habitation
|. at different places in southern
Idaho but no history connected
, with them. Nor has any language
: been handed down. save a few
words designating mountains and
streams.
Another theory is that the OBJ
sidian and flint we're more pliable
at one time than they are at pre-.
. sent, but this is not entertained bj
e mineralogists. AT all events nc
/. living man can make an arrow
}, head of obsidian equal to those
e found at Burley or elsewhere. The
: art has been lost, and in thes;
days Of repeating shotguns ant
long range automatic rifles there
!. is no incentive to revive it.-Twii

constable shall, within five days,
notify the owner in writing, if the
owner is known. If the owner is
not known, the constable shall at
once notify the county recorder by
written notice describing the ami
mails. If the brands described are
recorded, the recorded owner
shall be mailed a copy OF the
notice by the recorder who will
also notify the constable. After
waiting ten days for the owner to
appear, the constable shall adver-
tise the estray for sale in news
paper published in the county,
notice to be published once
+, week for four successive weeks,
and the sale must not be less than
forty days from receiving, by the
constable, of said notice from the
county recorder.

pay all costs of care and advertis
ing the estray will be delivered te
him by the constable. If no owner
appears, the estray will be sold t.
tile highest cash bidder and brand
ed E. on left side of neck, and thu
surplus of the proceeds, after cost
are paid, shall be given to tn
school district.
For feeding and caring for es
trays the law provides that tn

per head per day; for writing an
sending notices he shall receiv
fifty cents; for selling animals h
/ shall receive one dollar for tn
. first and fifty cents for each add

Should the owner appear with
0 six months and prove ownersh

q provisions of the act.
